Three Kingdoms: Cao Cao is stunned when he reveals his time-traveling identity.

Chapter 158 Guo Jia, I'm determined to save him!

On his couch in Cao Cao's study.

Guo Jia lay on the bed, his face ashen.

Cao Cao was extremely anxious, pacing back and forth, asking, "Fengxiao, what... what's wrong?"

Why did you suddenly faint?

Su Chen narrowed his eyes, glanced at Guo Jia briefly, and then directly pinched Guo Jia's philtrum.

It took Guo Jia a while to slowly come to his senses.

But at this moment, he was unable to speak at all, and he looked extremely haggard.

His lips were completely bloodless, and his eyes were lifeless.

I had a feeling that I was about to die.

At this point, Cao Cao's heart sank.

He knew in his heart that Guo Jia's health had never been very good.

Could it be that he caught a cold and is now bedridden?!

The more Cao Cao thought about it, the more frightened he became.

"Where's the doctor? Where did he go?!"

Cao Cao roared.

Guo Jia was extremely important to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao could not accept losing Guo Jia like this, no matter what.

Su Chen, however, said directly, "Sikong, there's no need to call a doctor."

After saying that, Su Chen turned to Cao Cao's attendant and said, "Bring water!"

Upon seeing this, the servant quickly went to fetch water.

Su Chen immediately took out a crystal-clear object from his bag.

After dissolving in the water, it was slowly poured into Guo Jia's mouth.

Although Guo Jia could not speak, he still retained some consciousness.

After drinking some water.

After a short while, the color returned to his face.

A glint of light appeared in his eyes.

Guo Jia, panting heavily, whispered, "Thank you, Jingming!"

Although he didn't know what Su Chen had done, he had undoubtedly saved his life!

"Don't breathe through your mouth. Close your mouth and breathe slowly and deeply."

"Otherwise, they will lack oxygen."

However, Su Chen spoke up and gave instructions.

Upon hearing this, Guo Jia, despite not understanding what oxygen deficiency meant, still did as Su Chen instructed.

Sure enough, after a while, his previously dizzy head gradually felt much better.

This scene left Cao Cao, who was standing to the side, completely dumbfounded.

"What... what's going on?"

"Jingming, what did you just give Fengxiao to wear?"

Cao Cao took a deep breath and said with a mixture of surprise and delight.

"Sikong, it's nothing, it's just rock candy."

"But the ones in my bag are ones I made before, so they're quite sweet."

Su Chen explained calmly.

"crystal sugar?"

"Is this rock candy—or medicine?"

"How were you able to cure Fengxiao's strange illness?"

Cao Cao was completely baffled.

Su Chen shrugged helplessly and said, "Brother Fengxiao, this isn't a serious illness, nor is it fatal."

"It's low blood sugar."

"I already had low blood sugar, and the long hours of hard work depleted my body's sugar reserves."

"In addition to catching a cold, Brother Fengxiao was also weak and fainted."

Hypoglycemia?

This was the first time Cao Cao and Guo Jia had ever heard of this disease.

The two were unaware of what was going on.

But Cao Cao still smiled and said, "Well done, Jingming! You are truly remarkable!"

"I never knew you were so skilled in medicine!"

Cao Cao now admired Su Chen even more.

This guy is practically an all-rounder!

He was capable of leading troops into battle, composing poems and essays, and also skilled in business and medicine.

There are also all sorts of bizarre "techniques" for making sugar, salt, and ice!

He was growing to like his future son-in-law more and more.

"You're overthinking it, Sikong."

"7

"This low blood sugar is a minor ailment and usually doesn't occur."

After saying that, Su Chen looked at Guo Jia and said, "Brother Fengxiao, drink all of this sweet soup."

"Rest well first, I'll go get you some cold medicine."

You absolutely must take good care of yourself!

Guo Jia was taken aback: "A cold?"

Su Chen waved his hand and explained, "It's just a cold."

"With your health like that, you should rest. Aren't you afraid of dying?"

Seeing this, Cao Cao nodded and said, "Fengxiao, you should rest here for now."

"Trust Jingming; he will surely be able to cure your cold."

Cao Cao now has complete confidence in Su Chen.

"Thank you, Sikong. Thank you, Jingming."

As he spoke, Guo Jia was too exhausted to continue, so he gently rested his head on the bed.

He was shocked by Su Chen's words.

Guo Jia never expected that Su Chen would care about him so much.

It wasn't in vain that I braved the cold to make this trip for Su Chen's important life event.

"Jingming is truly a genius!"

After Su Chen left, Cao Cao couldn't help but sigh.

Cao Cao had praised Su Chen in this way more than once.

But Su Chen always manages to bring him unexpected surprises.

"Indeed, Jingming is a genius beyond compare!"

"If possible, I truly hope to become sworn brothers with him!"

Guo Jia couldn't help but force a smile.

At the same time, Su Chen hurriedly arrived outside the Sikong Mansion.

Upon arriving here, they encountered a doctor carrying a medicine box, rushing hurriedly into the Sikong Mansion.

"Please wait, sir!"

Seeing this, Su Chen stopped the doctor and said, "Please find the herbs to prepare this medicine according to the prescription."

Upon hearing this, the doctor's expression changed: "Then—what about Strategist Guo?"

This doctor was Cao Cao's army physician.

Of course, they know Su Chen.

"Military Advisor Guo is fine now, you just need to go find him, the sooner the better."

Su Chen waved his hand and urged him directly.

Upon seeing Su Chen's prescription, the military doctor was taken aback.

Why does this prescription look so strange?

Even so, he absolutely dared not disregard Su Chen's orders.

Although Su Chen had no power, his prestige in the military was exceptionally high!

This prescription became the basis for treating colds in later generations.

Fortunately, Su Chen had drunk traditional Chinese medicine when he was a child and had a deep impression of the prescription.

During the Three Kingdoms period, there were also many remedies for treating colds.

However, most of the results were not very good.

What Su Chen took out was, after all, a version that had been improved by countless famous doctors in later generations.

"Guo Jia, you absolutely must not die."

Watching the military doctor hurriedly leave, Su Chen couldn't help but silently recite to himself.

For both public and private reasons, Su Chen did not want Guo Jia to die young like those recorded in history.

Officially, Guo Jia was Cao Cao's top strategist. Even if Su Chen sometimes only knew the future but didn't know how to deal with it, with Guo Jia there, he could solve the problem easily.

Personally, Guo Jia was definitely the only strategist under Cao Cao who was on good terms with Su Chen and shared a similar personality.

No matter what, Su Chen would never let Guo Jia die.

However, historical records indicate that Guo Jia died from overwork and the cold northern climate.

All of this is probably related to a cold.

In ancient times, a cold could be fatal if one was not careful.

Curing a disease is not difficult; the problem is to eradicate it completely.

So no matter what, ultimately we still need to improve Guo Jia's own physical condition.

Although today's incident was not serious, it served as a wake-up call for Su Chen.

Thinking of this, Su Chen suddenly had an idea.

Without saying a word, he hurriedly headed towards Cao Cao's study.

Guo Jia, I'm determined to save him!
