Chapter 24: Compassion for Suffering
After such a day, everyone is tired and exhausted, the vehicle is winding around the mountain road I am dizzy, the altitude is high, the body has an adverse reaction, the chest is stuffy, very uncomfortable, and I feel cold and feverish, I don't want to make a mess for everyone at this time, so there is no squeak,
When I got back to the car, I was afraid that my body would be overwhelmed, and I began to break out in a cold sweat. I can only close my eyes and say silently: "Hurry up and fall asleep, hurry up and fall asleep!"
Unconsciously, after a long time in a daze, suddenly the stiff limbs were woken up by the plums, it turned out that they had driven the car down the mountain with difficulty, followed the navigation into a village at the foot of the mountain, found the provincial road that was cut off by the tunnel, and booked a room in a motel near the provincial road.
I was a little embarrassed and lamented, "I didn't help much, but I still need your clone to take care of me." ”
Meizi, touched my forehead, and was disgusted: "It's really a stupid grapefruit, I don't say anything when I'm not feeling well, and I don't know if I have a fever, so I took the anti-inflammatory medicine first." ”
"As soon as the vegetarian chicken drove down the mountain, I followed the navigation everywhere to find the pharmacy, you have to take the medicine, and this hot water is also from the pharmacy. Ah Jian handed me the thermos cup and added.
"Don't move, take your medicine and take a break. We'll take care of the luggage. The vegetarian chicken opened the trunk and started to get busy.
This motel is a three-story old house remodeled, the owner is a local in his early forties, bald and with a fat beer belly, knowing that we are from out of town, and there are not many choices for accommodation, and the attitude is also very perfunctory.
Our room was arranged on the north side of the third floor facing the provincial road, there was no elevator, and the suitcases were carried upstairs by two laborers, Ah Jian and Su Ji, step by step.
Before I reached the corridor on the third floor, an unpleasant musty smell came to my nose.
When I opened the door, the lock of the door was rusty, and the wallpaper in the room, glowing with mildew, had fallen off half. The slightly yellowed white sheets were turned open, and there were actually several holes.
There is no room for hot water because when you plug in the electric kettle, there is no electricity at all. The toilet toilet has only a roll left on the toilet lid, and there is no paper.
Meizi looked at my very tangled expression and quickly comforted me: "It's better than sleeping in the car, and you can spend the night with your clothes on!"
I nodded, lay down silently, but my thoughts turned over the river and the sea: "This area is mostly mountainous, with steep cliffs, and the living environment is indeed very bad. ”
Habitually thought of Ace again, Ace never heard from him again, when people are sick, their hearts are very fragile, how much they hope to get his care at this moment, even if it is just a brief message, but unfortunately there is nothing, can only curl up the body, gloomy.
Thinking about it, I fell asleep in a daze, maybe I was too tired, and the big trucks on the provincial road not far from the window roared all night, and the deafening sound did not wake me up.
The whole person slept very deeply, and even breathed very hard. I don't know when, I wrapped myself in the hotel's smelly quilt in my sleep, and I covered my body in a cold sweat.
Strange to say, after covering the cold sweat, the pain was much better. I woke up early the next day, my body was a little refreshed, and I wanted to take a shower, but when I saw the bathroom and the dirty floor, this idea stopped.
I opened the window and pulled back the curtains, trying to blow the wind. Looking downstairs, I saw that Su Ji was in the front yard of the motel, using the water pipe in the sink to flush the vehicle.
I yelled at him, "So early!"
"Yuzu, you woke up early today, are you feeling better?" Su Ji put down the water pipe in his hand and looked up at me.
"I'm so much better, don't worry. I squeezed out a smile to reassure him.
"Near the hotel, there is a row of shops, it seems to be quite lively, and there is a breakfast shop, you call them to come down together, let's go over and eat!"
"Okay——" I replied in a long voice.
In the breakfast shop, it was bustling with people, Ah Jian quickly glanced at the menu posted on the wall, turned his head and asked, "Sister, what do you and Sister Yuzu eat?"
This shop is supposed to be run for locals, and the price is not expensive, whether it is soup noodles or fried noodles, they are all priced at 12 yuan, but the interior environment is not satisfactory.
The shop is full of round tables, with a greasy layer of stains on the tabletop, and the noodle bowls served are bumped on the edges, and there are many small missing corners.
"It's cheap and good, it's good, everyone eat it!" I took the lead and praised it, so that everyone had a happy mood to eat.
The vegetarian chicken buryed his head and "snorted" and quickly finished eating the noodles: "I went out to breathe, and it was a little hot after eating." ”
Looking at it, he was preoccupied, pacing back and forth outside the breakfast shop, as if he was thinking about something.
Before the three of us could finish the ramen, he had already brought a few fruit gift boxes decorated with shiny ribbon paper from the fruit shop in the same row.
