My Desert Island Life with the Female CEO

Chapter 31
Liu Xi looked at the bark in his hand in a daze, "Boss Su, this...can this piece of bark cure diseases?"

Su Ya excitedly took the bark from Liu Xi's hand and looked at it carefully.

"That's right! This is the bark of a willow tree... This piece of bark can be of great use!"

Liu Xi and Zhou Xiaoyu stood aside, they both looked at the piece of bark, a little confused.

Su Ya took the bark and explained, "Willow bark is a very ancient medicinal material... In ancient times, there are records of willow bark being used as medicine in China and Western countries!"

"Willow bark contains natural salicin, which can be converted into salicylic acid by enzymes after absorption. It is a natural antipyretic and pain reliever!"

The more Su Ya talked, the more excited she became, "Salicylic acid is a compound similar to 'aspirin'! It's a natural antipyretic!"

"These barks can not only lower Chen Tian's body temperature, but also help him get rid of inflammation!"

Su Ya hugged Liu Xi excitedly, "Liu Xi, you are amazing! Where did you find these tree barks?"

Liu Xi's face immediately became embarrassed.

"President Su, well, I didn't find this willow bark... Just now Brother Tian said that there is a smell of fresh bark nearby. I saw this piece of bark at the door of the tent, so I took it here!"

Su Ya looked at Zhou Xiaoyu.

Zhou Xiaoyu shrugged, "Don't look at me! I didn't bring this piece of bark...I just found out that willow bark can cure diseases!"

Su Ya looked at the willow bark and wondered, "Where did this piece of bark come from? Is there anyone else around here?"

Liu Xi took the willow bark in his hand, "Su Ya, don't worry about it now! Can this piece of bark be boiled for drinking?"

Su Ya nodded hastily, "Let's take some bark to boil water, and feed Chen Tian to drink it later to see the reaction!"

"Okay!" Liu Xi got up and said, "I'm going to boil water now!"

Liu Xi tore off a piece of fresh willow bark and put the bark in the bamboo tube.

She put the bamboo tube on the fire, then sat and stared at the tube of water.

Chen Tian was tired for a long time just now, now he fell asleep again.

He also snored.

Su Ya looked at Chen Tian and let out a sigh of relief, "Okay, I'm relieved... It seems that Chen Tian's situation is not as serious as you said!"

A smile appeared on Zhou Xiaoyu's face, "What I just said was the worst case scenario! Since willow bark can reduce fever and inflammation... Brother Tian should be fine soon!"

"He's in good shape!"

"Su Ya, it was my fault just now... I shouldn't call you a vase!"

"I apologize to you! Sorry!"

Zhou Xiaoyu's attitude was very sincere, she made a special bow to Su Ya.

Su Ya hurriedly supported Zhou Xiaoyu, "Xiaoyu, what are you doing? I did something wrong just now... I just called you a waste. It was my fault! I hope you will forgive me a lot!"

Liu Xi looked at the water in the bamboo tube and said, "Okay! You two are like a ball!"

"Both of you have good intentions... It's just that you were in a hurry because of Chen Tian's matter!"

"But the way you two got angry just now... you really look like two lionesses!"

Su Ya gave Zhou Xiaoyu a wink, and the two women jumped at Liu Xi at the same time.

The two kept tickling Liu Xi's itch.

While scratching, the two kept saying, "Damn Liu Xi, say...who looks like a lioness!"

"It's just...you're the lioness! You're the lioness!"

Liu Xi was itchy and trembling all over, she kept begging for mercy, "You two heroes, it's my fault... I'm a lioness! I'm a lioness!"

"Please spare me! Oops, the water is about to be spilled!"

Su Ya and Zhou Xiaoyu were afraid that they would spill the water, so they sat aside again.

Zhou Xiaoyu looked at Su Ya and asked curiously, "Su Ya, how did you know that willow bark can be turned into salicylic acid by boiling water?"

Su Ya smiled, "Our Su Group has many industries in Jinling... Sometimes, some manufacturers will invite us to visit!"

"Once, I visited another biopharmaceutical factory and saw willow bark in their factory building!"

"I was very curious at the time, so I asked a few more questions... Fortunately, I asked a few more questions, otherwise, Chen Tian would be in danger!"

Su Ya paused, looked at Zhou Xiaoyu and asked, "Xiao Yu, you really didn't bring that piece of willow bark in?"

"No! I didn't know that willow bark could cure diseases!" Zhou Xiaoyu thought for a while, "But when we came back, we seemed to have seen that piece of willow bark! But I didn't pay much attention to it!"

Su Ya frowned slightly, "Then who put the willow bark beside the tent? It's so strange!"

Zhou Xiaoyu sharpened his spear with a stone, "Su Ya, let me tell you... why are you thinking so much!"

"As long as Brother Tian is fine... We will know the rest of the matter gradually!"

Liu Xi came over with a bamboo tube, "The water has been cold for a long time just now...the temperature is just right! Brother Tian can drink water now!"

The three girls helped Chen Tian up.

Chen Tian half sat and nestled in the arms of the third daughter, and the third daughter fed Chen Tian the water.

That night, Chen Tian didn't have any fever on his forehead.

Su Ya was still worried that the medicine was not strong enough, so she boiled willow bark water for Chen Tian again in the middle of the night.

a few days later.

Chen Tian's body is much better than before.

Although it was still difficult for him to get up and walk, his complexion had improved a lot.

"Chen Tian, ​​your complexion is much better!" Su Ya handed a small bamboo tube to Chen Tian, ​​"Your body has not fully recovered, continue to drink medicine!"

Chen Tian smiled wryly, "At first, I thought the willow bark tasted delicious...but after drinking it for several days, I felt like vomiting!"

Although Chen Tian said that, he still drank all the potions.

Chen Tian put the small bamboo tube aside, "Where are Xiao Yu and Liu Xi? Why didn't you see them?"

"Xiao Yu said that eating those pickled bear meat every day is too monotonous and not nutritious!" Su Ya said, "She went to the nearby jungle to get you some fresh food! Liu Xi went with her!"

"Oh!" Chen Tian frowned, "Will they encounter any danger?"

"It should be fine!" Su Ya explained, "Recently, the two of them have been out hunting! Although the harvest is not very big, it should be fine!"

"They should be back soon!"

At this moment, Zhou Xiaoyu and Liu Xi came back with spears.

The hands of the two were empty, and there was nothing.

Zhou Xiaoyu walked into the tent dejectedly and sat aside.

Liu Xi looked very frightened, she was trembling all over.

Su Ya looked at the two and asked, "Xiao Yu, didn't you gain anything today?"

"Liu Xi, are you okay? Why do you look so scared?"

"Sister Su! I'm scared! I'm scared!" Liu Xi threw herself into Su Ya's arms and kept crying, "I'm really scared...I don't want to stay on this deserted island anymore!"

"Take me out of here quickly! I want to leave this desert island!"

Liu Xi kept sobbing and trembling all over.

Su Ya gently comforted Liu Xi, "Liu Xi, don't be afraid! We are all... If there is anything, just say it!"

Liu Xi cried and said, "Sister Su...just now, I just saw..."
