Chapter 392: Curing the poison

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Shen Mo calmed his breath before speaking, “There was a snowfall on the mountain, and as it started melting these past few days, many wild mushrooms sprouted in the fields. The soldiers went to pick the mushrooms and delivered them to the cookhouse to make mushroom soup. What we didn’t expect was that after eating the soup at noon, people started feeling pain in the afternoon. An hour after the meal, soldiers began to faint one after another, writhing on the ground with stomach pains, some even hallucinating. The military doctor hasn’t arrived at the camp yet, and we rough men don’t know what’s going on. We had no choice but to come and ask you for help.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chuan immediately understood; they must have been poisoned by the food. He couldn’t help but scold, “How can you eat wild mushrooms carelessly! Don’t you know that the more attractive mushrooms are often the most poisonous?”

After scolding, Jiang Chuan didn’t dare to delay. He put on his cotton coat and followed Shen Mo up the mountain.

Jiang Xia, remembering that her interspace water had healing properties, also followed, hoping to be of help.

The path up the mountain was treacherous, especially after the snowfall, with the ground very wet and slippery. Jiang Chuan, with his steady footing, managed to progress, but Jiang Xia was not so sure-footed. Her small frame could hardly maintain balance, and she nearly slipped several times, thankfully caught by Shen Mo who was right behind her.

Shen Mo, anxious not to delay, didn’t consider the impropriety of the situation and carried Jiang Xia on his back, quickening their pace up the mountain.

At this point, Jiang Chuan didn’t have the time to lecture him; he needed to check on the soldiers’ condition first.

Seeing the condition of the soldiers, Jiang Chuan was shocked.

It had to be said, the young soldiers’ symptoms of poisoning were quite peculiar. Some were like drunkards, with flushed faces and vacant expressions, grasping at the air and muttering, “Mom, look at the flying fairies!”

Others appeared in pain, limping and constantly covering their ears, saying, “What should I do? I can’t hear anything.”

Jiang Chuan asked Shen Mo, “Has he been injured in the war before?”

Shen Mo replied in disbelief, “He’s only been enlisted for less than three months; how could he have seen war?”

Well, it turned out to be a hallucination.

Some lay on their beds, clutching their stomachs and rolling back and forth, crying, “Save me, my stomach hurts so much, I’m going to die, Captain, save me!”

Even more bizarre was one hiding behind a sandbag, throwing imaginary objects at anyone approaching, imitating explosion sounds with a “boom,” and then shouting, “These enemies can’t be bombed to death, bring me my Italian cannon!”

Jiang Chuan felt that their poisoning was probably not too severe, but if they weren’t treated soon, they might very well end up harming themselves in their delirium.

Pulling Jiang Xia aside, Jiang Chuan said, “We can’t delay, daughter, we must use your interspace water to save them.”

Jiang Xia nodded in agreement, “Don’t worry, Dad, I’m ready.”

To Shen Mo, Jiang Xia explained, “They’ve been poisoned by toxic mushrooms. But there’s no need to worry. I’ve been poisoned before, and an old traditional Chinese doctor gave me a remedy. I still have some of that medicinal powder left. Mixed with water, it will cure them.”

Saying this, Jiang Xia produced a pack of Lingzi spore powder from her interspace, pretending it was the antidote, “Take me to the kitchen first, we need to mix this with water for them to drink.”

Shen Mo quickly led Jiang Xia to the kitchen. He had wanted to help her, but Jiang Xia declined. She assured, “I can manage it myself. If you come in, you might just get in the way and cause mistakes. Just wait outside for me.”

Shen Mo obediently waited at the door.

While Shen Mo wasn’t looking, Jiang Xia mixed the Lingzhi spore powder with the interspace water, stirred until evenly combined, and then poured the mixture into bowls. She instructed Shen Mo to serve it to the soldiers.

Whether they drank it willingly or had to be forced, the young soldiers’ symptoms began to ease after drinking the water, and shortly afterward, they lay weakly on their beds..
