Chapter 9 To the county seat
Wen Xin went to the hot spring to fetch water to clean Wen Xifu's wounds, as long as he thought of the poisonous snake in the hot spring, Wen Xin only felt that his scalp was numb.
Quietly draw out the spiritual water in the space and use it to clean the wounds on Wen Xifu's body.
"Girl, go outside and call grandpa, the second uncle can't exercise now, otherwise the venom will flow all over the body." Wen Xifu leaned against the mountain wall and said with all his might, Wen Xin nodded again and again, and kept telling himself in his heart.
'Don't panic, you must not panic, the second uncle's life is in her hands, you must be calm. ’
"Second uncle, you wait for me here, I'll be back soon." Wen Xin was afraid that the snake in the hot spring would run out, so he helped Wen Xifu to lean a little far away from the hot spring before preparing to leave.
After crawling out of the cave a few times, Wen Xin ran towards the cave where he was resting very quickly.
I was in a hurry, the snow was very deep, and I couldn't remember how many wrestles she had wrestled along the way, and her legs were numb from the cold, and she finally returned to the cave.
As soon as he approached the entrance of the cave, he was discovered by the villagers, and then someone came over to ask what happened to Wenxin.
"My second uncle was bitten by a poisonous snake and told me to come back and tell my grandfather." After Wen Xin finished speaking, he was already out of breath and very tired.
Hearing that Wen Xifu was bitten by a poisonous snake, everyone became anxious, and eight out of ten people who were bitten by poisonous snakes in the village were dead.
The villagers spread the news into the cave, and after a while, Wen Desheng came out with a few young people, and asked very anxiously where Wen Xin and Wen Xifu were bitten.
Because Wen Desheng didn't know what Wen Xin was talking about, he had to let Wen Qingfu go with Wen Xin on his back.
Wen Qingfu knows in his heart that the heavy work at home is basically contracted by Wen Xifu, and if Wen Xifu has an accident, his good life will come to an end.
Wen Xin unceremoniously climbed Wen Qingfu's back and pointed out the direction where the cave was located.
Knowing that Wen Xifu was bitten by a poisonous snake, and now his life and death are unknown, Chen Tao's eyes are crying like walnuts, Wen Yue and Wen Di only feel that there is darkness in front of them, they are not treated well in this family, and now that their father has an accident, how will they live in the future.
Wen Yue remembered that most of the fatherless girls in the village were sold to traffickers.
Wen Xin pointed the way for a while and arrived at the place where Wen Xifu was chopping wood, and learned that Wen Xifu was in the cave, Wen Desheng and a few villagers got into the cave without saying a word, and then Wen Xin also went in.
Looking at the empty cave, Wen Desheng was very anxious, saw Wen Xin coming down, and hurriedly asked Wen Xifu's whereabouts.
"The second uncle is in this underground cave, let's go in with me." After speaking, Wen Xin took the lead in entering the cave.
When you arrive at the underground cave, you can see Wen Xifu resting on the wall at a glance.
When the villagers and Wen Desheng arrived at the underground cave, they all looked at the scene in front of them in amazement. When they saw the rabbit tied to Wen Xifu's side, everyone's eyes lit up.
Wen Xin looked around looking for rabbits, and sighed, people's hearts.
"Second uncle, how are you, I called grandpa, you will be fine." Seeing that the second uncle's calf had swollen black, Wen Xin felt very uncomfortable.
Wen Desheng and Wen Qingfu walked forward quickly to check the wound.
"Fortunately, the poisonous blood was released in time, if you want to clear the poison, you have to send it to the county seat to see a doctor immediately." Wen Desheng has seen many people who have been bitten by poisonous snakes, and most of them are worse than Wen Xifu.
Wen Xin breathed a sigh of relief when he heard his grandfather's words, at least now the second uncle has no worries about his life.
Wen Xin didn't know that the reason why Wen Xifu's condition did not deteriorate was all because of the effect of her cleansing with spiritual water.
At this time, the villagers had already discovered that there were fish in the hot spring, and some people were about to go down to the spring to catch fish. "There is a poisonous snake in the hot spring, don't go down, the second uncle was bitten in the hot spring."
Hearing Wen Xin's words, everyone looked at the hot springs and then at Wen Xifu, who was bitten, but in the end, no one went down to catch fish.
Because the entrance to the cave was narrow, Wen Desheng made a tow frame, fixed Wen Xifu on it, and a strong uncle pulled the rope on the trailer.
After several tosses, Wen Xifu was finally taken out of the cave, and they all knew that Wen Xifu's injury could not be delayed, so everyone did not go back to the cave, but directly carried Wen Xifu towards the county seat.
The remaining two people went back to the cave with Wenxin to report the news.
At this time, Wen Xin was holding the rabbit in his hand, as well as the fish caught by the second uncle.
Looking at the dead fish, Wen Xin was extremely afraid, and after being afraid, he blamed himself, if it weren't for her, the second uncle would not have entered the underground cave, and he would not have been bitten by a snake.
Back in the cave, Wenxin's feet had been ground out of blood, but no one cared about her situation, everyone was packing up their things and preparing to rush to the county seat.
Looking at the second aunt's crying and swollen eyes, Wen Xin comforted: "Second aunt, don't be too sad, grandpa said that the second uncle's wound is not serious, and he will definitely be fine if he goes to the county seat to find a doctor and prescribe medicine." ”
Wen Xin was not sure that the second uncle would be fine, but she couldn't bear to see the second aunt so sad, so she had to say it here. She believes that God will not be so ruthless, and the second uncle is so good, how could he die like this.
After listening to Wen Xin's words, Chen Tao wiped away her tears, now is not the time to be sad, she still has two daughters and a young son to take care of, and her man will definitely be fine.
Liu Ying beckoned everyone to rush to the county seat, and Wen Xin endured the pain in his feet and took a lot of things on the road.
The cave is not very far from the county seat, and two hours later, Wen Xin and the others walked to the county seat, and at this time there were many refugees gathered at the gate of the county seat.
I heard that the prefectural magistrate would distribute a bowl of hot porridge every day, and everyone was waiting at the city gate.
Probably afraid of the refugees making trouble, the city gate was closed tightly at this time, and when Wen Xin arrived at the county seat, he happened to see his grandfather talking to the soldiers guarding the city gate.
"Master Guan, you can do it, open the city gate and let us in, my son was bitten by a snake, if you don't find a doctor for treatment, I'm afraid he will die." Wen Desheng begged anxiously, and sent the soldiers guarding the door to kneel.
"Uncle, I've told you many times, we can't open the city gate casually without the order from above, I am also very sympathetic to your son's situation, but sympathy is sympathy, I can't help but listen to the orders of the county commander, unless someone in the city guarantees you, otherwise you can't enter until dark." The soldiers guarding the city gate shook their heads when they saw Wen Xifu's situation, they couldn't open the city gate without an order from above, and this person was afraid that he wouldn't be able to withstand this pass.
The soldiers sentenced Wen Xifu to death in their hearts, it is now a disaster year, every day some people will starve to death at the city gate, and every evening they will go to clean up the dead, and a heart has long been numb.
No matter how Desheng asked, the soldiers guarding the city gate did not agree to open the city gate, and finally Wen Desheng was annoyed, so he called someone to pull Wen Desheng away, and he was not allowed to come forward to speak.
Chen Tao and Liu Ying, who were not far away, saw this situation, and their hearts collapsed, and they sat on the ground and cried, their family did not have any relatives and friends living in the county seat.
The people around turned their heads to look at the situation and looked at the future, in this era, their own family members are in charge of their own affairs, and whoever is full will take care of other people's affairs.
