Su Ziling shook his head. "No need. She has already vomited what she ate. There is nothing more to vomit. Let her scream. I hope the doctor will come soon."

Fearing that the doctor was helpless, Su Ziling thought about it, went into the kitchen, rummaged through the ash trough and stove hole, and found some remaining activated carbon, which he fed to several people, using the activated carbon as an adsorbent to absorb the poison.

I also asked someone to prepare some more water and drink some every once in a while. Drinking more water can help toxins be excreted from the urine in large quantities.

It’s a pity that there are no croton seeds, otherwise they could give them some to clear out the toxins remaining in the intestines.

Seeing Su Ziling busying around, everyone thought everything was fine, "Is this all right?"

"We have done what we should do. The rest depends on their fate. I hope they are lucky and don't eat the Amanita mushrooms, otherwise..." She didn't say the rest, but everyone understood what she meant.

Everyone was terrified, "I didn't expect this mushroom to be so powerful."

"Yes, yes. Although Xiaoqing always tells us not to eat it because it's poisonous, I was tempted when I saw her making it. I just couldn't bear to use that little bit of oil, otherwise I would have fried it long ago."

"Who said it wasn't? I said I wanted to taste it that day, but I didn't have any oil at home, so I didn't do it."

"Luckily, we didn't do that, otherwise we might be the ones lying on the ground."

"No, why did this old lady Su think of eating mushrooms? Don't they not pick mushrooms at home?"

"I guess they are out of rice. You don't know that since the family split up, Zhu Yu has been in charge. This woman is very powerful. Old Mrs. Su can't get away with it. I guess they saw that we were picking up rice, so they wanted to pick it up to fill their stomachs too."

"I was wondering, this morning I saw Zhu Yu taking Su Wenwu to the mountains to pick mushrooms. She ignored me when I talked to her. I thought to myself, isn't this a very principled person? Why is she picking mushrooms too?"

"I didn't expect that I picked this up to eat."

Everyone sighed, and were terrified at the thought of the miserable plight of that family. Those who had been eager to try it now no longer dared to even think about it.

I thought to myself, they should just eat some fungi. They are not worthy of enjoying these mushrooms. Don't let the whole family be ruined by eating them just to satisfy your appetite.

As the night gradually darkened, everyone stayed in the yard, some sitting on the ground, some on benches, and some on rocks.

Some were sitting, some were squatting, and some were standing. No one left, so they just waited together.

At night, the full moon seemed to pass over the treetops, casting a silver light on the ground.

Su Guangbai and his companions held torches and walked in the moonlight, pulling the old doctor as they walked, constantly urging him, "Doctor, please hurry up, the patient is dying."

The old doctor panted, "Young man, please don't rush me. I'm already very fast. I'm already old, and you've dragged me all the way. If you go any faster, my old bones will fall apart."

Su Guangbai walked a distance, then stopped and waited, walked a distance, then stopped and waited. When he couldn't wait any longer, he simply carried him on his back.

"They're back, they're back. There's a torch over there, that must be Lao Er and the others back!"

Someone was sitting by the door, and when he saw the torch not far away, he stood up immediately.

"Hurry up and take the torch to answer it." Clan leader Su Chenghuai was naturally alarmed by this incident, and he slammed his crutch heavily on the ground.

A moment later, Su Guangbai walked into the yard, sweating profusely. Behind him was the old doctor with white hair and a medicine box on his back.

In the light of the fire, one could see that his coarse linen clothes, which had been washed so much that they looked bleached, were covered with light-colored patches.

Su Chenghuai stepped forward and bowed slightly, "Excuse me, doctor."

The old doctor took a breath and waved his hand, "Let me check on the patient first."

Everyone stepped aside, and before the old doctor entered the house, he heard ghosts howling inside.

He paused, then walked into the house and looked at the people in the house, all of whom were making aggressive moves and occasionally grinning.

He took the pulse first, and when he took Su Wenwu's pulse, the fat boy pulled his beard.

The old doctor's face turned red with pain. "What's going on? What did you eat?"

"It's said to be mushrooms," someone said, but didn't know what to say, so he turned around and looked for Su Ziling, "Xiaoqing, Xiaoqing, come and tell the doctor what's going on."

"Yeah, we weren't sure. We were eating when we heard a loud cry from the family. We came over to see that everyone was lying on the ground."

Everyone was talking to the old doctor at once, and they described the scene very well, but they didn't get to the point, nor did they say what the old doctor wanted to hear.

Su Ziling took a few mushrooms and said, "It's mushroom poisoning. I ate Amanita muscaria and Amanita phalloides." Su Ziling handed the mushroom in his hand to him and said, "This is Amanita muscaria. I don't have Amanita muscaria at home. I couldn't find any."

"After the poisoning, we gave him some salt water and soapy water, induced vomiting, and fed him some activated carbon to absorb the toxins. Now there is nothing in his stomach, but the hallucinogenic effect is still there. Doctor, please see what medicine you should prescribe."

The old doctor looked at the mushroom in his hand with curiosity on his face. He pinched it gently and saw that the teeth of the mushroom had changed color, gradually deepening from green to indigo.

"Hiss!" The old doctor gasped, "What a poisonous mushroom."

Su Ziling nodded, "Yes, if we are not careful, we will end up like them."

The old doctor looked at her and said, "You know it's poisonous but you still eat it. Are you stupid? Look at the color of this mushroom. It's so bright, it must be poisonous. I can't understand why there are people who would rush to die like this."

"But fortunately you induced vomiting in time and handled it properly, so you vomited out all the fungi."

Su Ziling nodded. Of course, since she was born in the wild mushroom kingdom in her previous life, she knew some ways to save her life, so she was just in case something happened to her.

"I don't have any other options. I'll just prescribe some laxatives to see if you can defecate. Once you can defecate, I'll make some qi-replenishing and blood-nourishing medicine."

This was also the first time that the old doctor encountered a case of mushroom poisoning.

The pulse felt no different from that of an ordinary person, but their symptoms were so special that he had no way of prescribing the right medicine and could only cross the river by feeling the stones.

Su Ziling didn't understand all this, so when she heard the old doctor say this, she just nodded in agreement.

He paid the money and said to Su Chenghuai, "Grandpa, when they wake up, remember to ask me for money. I'm the one who paid for the medicine."

Su Chenghuai smiled and shook his head, "I see, girl, with me here, they can't afford to pay for your medicine."

"That's hard to say!" Su Ziling curled his lips, handed the medicine to Liu Guilan, and asked her to boil it. Then he said to him, "You know my aunt, she can do anything, especially playing tricks, she is the best at it."

Seeing that things were going on here, everyone dispersed one after another. Many people had to go back to eat, and everyone ran over here when they were halfway through their meal.

"Uncle, old doctor, come to my house for dinner."

Old Master Su called the two of them over and also called his two younger brothers to come along.

"No, no, our meal is still on the table." The two old men waved their hands.

Mr. Su pulled one with each hand and said, "Come to my place to eat. Yours are all cold."

Third Uncle had no choice but to follow him, "Ours is cold, so isn't yours just as cold? You're talking as if yours is still warm."

The old man looked mysterious, "You don't know this, right? My house is indeed hot. Not only hot, but also scalding hot."

Just when the old doctor arrived, Su's mother went back and lit a fire with Su's grandmother. As soon as she entered the house, she smelled the fragrance of mushrooms.

"Wow! It's really hot. I was wondering why you keep pulling me over here. Are you killing chickens?"

The third uncle didn't hesitate and pulled out a stool, "Uncle, please sit down."

The old patriarch sat down and looked at the pot of mushroom soup. "What's this cooking?"

"I picked some tricholoma, let's cook some hotpot with it. Uncle, please try it, it's delicious." Grandma Su scooped a bowl for the old patriarch first, and then the old doctor, Grandpa Su.

"Hmm, this smell is really fresh. I heard people say that they can smell the fragrance every day when they pass by the valley over there. Could this be what they sell?"

Su Chenghuai blew gently and took a sip. When Su Ziling saw it, his eyes widened, and then he took the second and third sips.
