Chapter 114 Mine?
His gaze finally rested on Village Chief Shi, and he felt a warmth in his heart.
"Village chief, why are you here?" He tried hard to prop up his body and wanted to sit up, but he was too weak to do so and could only lean weakly against the head of the bed.
Village Chief Shi took a step forward with a relieved smile on his face.
"A Qiang, you looked so scary just now. Luckily, Miss Ye was here. She saved you." The village chief's tone was full of gratitude and admiration.
A Qiang followed the gaze of Village Chief Shi and his eyes fell on Ye Zirou.
Ye Zirou went forward to greet him.
"Aqiang, how are you feeling now? Do you still feel uncomfortable somewhere?"
Aqiang thought about it.
"Well... I feel much better, just a little tired and a little hungry."
Ye Zirou smiled.
"This is all normal. After all, you've been lying in bed for so long and you haven't eaten anything, so of course you'll feel hungry. Don't worry. After two days, you can try to get out of bed and walk around to stretch your muscles. This way you can recover your strength faster."
At this time, the old woman heard her son say he was hungry, and she felt so distressed that she stood up and said, "Oh, my son, why didn't you tell me earlier that you were hungry? I'll make you something delicious right away!"
As she spoke, she hurried to the kitchen to prepare a sumptuous meal for Aqiang.
Ye Zirou stopped her and told her that the patient had just woken up and should not eat too much meat or fish, and it would be better for him to eat some liquid food first.
The old woman nodded and left.
A Qiang looked at Ye Zirou and said, "Thank you, Miss Ye!"
"You're welcome. I have a few questions for you."
A Qiang was a little confused. It was the first time he met Ye Zirou, so what questions could he have to ask him? But he still spoke politely.
"Miss Ye, just ask me. I will tell you everything I know."
"A Qiang, do you still remember the group of people who took you away more than a month ago? Where was the place where you went to work at that time? What specific work did you do?" Ye Zirou went straight to the point.
Aqiang recalled.
"We were on a mountain not far from the village. I don't know what we were doing. I just remember there was a mine there, but I don't know what kind of mine it was."
Ye Zirou's heart sank. It was indeed related to the gold mine.
She turned to Mo Tianyu and said, "Looks like we need to go to that mountain and take a look."
Mo Tianyu nodded.
"Did you find anything unusual when you were mining? For example, did you smell a strange smell or see anything strange?" Ye Zirou continued to ask.
Aqiang frowned and thought carefully, and suddenly seemed to remember something.
"Hmm... I seem to have smelled a pungent smell, but no one paid much attention to it at the time, thinking it was the smell of the ore itself."
"It seems that the problem lies in that mine. You have been working there for a long time and have inhaled a large amount of uranium dust, which has led to poisoning."
"Poisoned? Are we poisoned?" A Qiang asked in surprise.
"Yes." Ye Zirou nodded.
"Then...then are we still saved?"
"Of course there is hope." Ye Zirou said with a smile, "I have already injected you with the antidote."
"Oh! So that's how it is!" Ah Qiang breathed a sigh of relief, "It's okay, it's okay."
"You silly boy, you are alive now, aren't you?" Village Chief Shi smiled and patted Aqiang on the shoulder.
"Haha, yes!" Ah Qiang scratched his head and laughed, "The village chief is right. I am confused."
"Miss Ye, thank you for saving my life!" A Qiang looked at Ye Zirou gratefully.
"You're welcome." Ye Zirou smiled slightly.
"Miss Ye, how could someone get poisoned while working in a mine?" Village Chief Shi couldn't help but ask.
“Because there is a kind of poisonous gas in the mine, if people inhale it and it accumulates to a certain level, they will be poisoned.
Ye Zirou explained it to them in simple language, otherwise they wouldn't understand if it was too complicated.
"So that's how it is." Village Chief Shi suddenly realized, "No wonder they all came back sick after they went there."
"Well, this poison gas is colorless and odorless, and it is difficult to detect. If you are exposed to it for a long time, it will cause serious harm to your body." Ye Zirou explained.
"Is there no way to avoid it?"
Ye Zirou shook her head.
Just then, the old woman came back with food.
Ye Zirou gave them a few simple instructions and then left with Village Chief Shi and his group.
Next, she treated other villagers one after another, but Huazi was the only one who had not received treatment.
When Ye Zirou was asking Aqiang about the situation in the mine, Village Chief Shi had already asked Hua Zisao and the village woman to go back first, so they didn't know what happened in the mine.
So when they arrived at Brother Huazi's house, they had already seen Sister Huazi anxiously looking out of the gate, eagerly waiting for Ye Zirou and others to arrive.
When Mrs. Hua Zi saw Ye Zirou and the others from afar, she immediately went to greet them: "Miss Ye, you are finally here!"
As she said that, she hurriedly pulled Ye Zirou into the house.
Hua Zige's condition was the most serious, so even though Ye Zirou injected him with an antidote, he did not wake up immediately.
Mrs. Huazi sat by the bed, her eyes fixed on Huazi, afraid of missing any movement.
But as time passed, Huazi still had no reaction, and she couldn't help but start to worry.
Finally, she couldn't hold back her anxiety anymore and asked, "Miss Ye, why hasn't my Huazi woken up yet?"
Ye Zirou looked at Mrs. Hua Zi's worried face and said comfortingly.
"Sister Huazi, Brother Huazi's injuries are quite serious, so he needs more time to recover. Please wait patiently, he will wake up slowly."
Hearing Ye Zirou say this, although Mrs. Hua Zi was extremely anxious, she could only nod helplessly to show her understanding.
However, as time went by, Huazi remained unconscious, and Huazi's wife became increasingly anxious.
She kept asking Ye Zirou if there was any other way to help Brother Hua Zi wake up quickly.
Ye Zirou knew how Hua Zi's wife felt. She told her that she had done her best and promised to continue observing Hua Zi's condition.
At this moment, Mrs. Hua Zi suddenly remembered that Ye Zirou and Mr. Mo had been busy all night and might not have eaten yet.
So, she asked with concern: "Miss Ye, you must be hungry. I will go get you some food. You and Mr. Mo can sit here for a while."
Ye Zirou didn't feel hungry at first, but after Mrs. Hua Zi mentioned it, she realized that her stomach was already empty.
She smiled gratefully at Mrs. Hua Zi and replied, "Okay, thank you, Mrs. Hua Zi."
Mrs. Huazi smiled and nodded, then hurried out of the room to prepare food for them.
Ye Zirou and Mo Tianyu sat quietly at the table, waiting for Brother Huazi to wake up.
Because Brother Huazi was one of the first people to enter the mine, they wanted to wait for him to wake up and then ask him about the situation in the mine. Perhaps he knew more than Aqiang.
