Chapter 24: The Wonderful Use of Grasshoppers

Seeing that the white and pure Qi Lianchang's breathing was getting weaker and weaker, everyone was anxious. At this time, Li Lan suddenly remembered that he had read a book on medicine, which recorded in detail the medicinal value of grasshoppers, which were dried and ground into powder, which could treat bruises. Li Lan thought that maybe he could use grasshoppers to cure locusts, and Li Lan's idea coincided with Zhang Minmin's, so he took immediate action.

After all, the three female soldiers are the best among the nurses, and Wang Yueyue, who was walking behind the most ugly, called Li Lan in front: "Sister Li Lan, we can use the tweezers for surgery to clamp the locusts." Li Lan smiled and said, "We also thought of it, and we are going back to get tweezers and pot lids or something."

Things are often unexpected, you have to take the initiative to find the locust, but the locust is gone. The three of them searched for a while before they got a dozen. Later, it was Zhang Minmin who remembered the words of Commander Zhao, and the locusts lived in a humid place. When they came to the pond, "Ah, my mother," Wang Yueyue exclaimed, and Li Lan and Zhang Minmin leaned over to see that hundreds of locusts were huddled together in the mud under a pile of leaves, thinking of a big dark brown mud. Wang Yueyue's gastric juice was gushing outward, and she stubbornly used tweezers to put it into the lid of the pot one by one. Li Lan also came over to help.

After a while, they put the grasshoppers they had caught in the lid of the pot, and made a fire, and put the lid of the pot with the grasshoppers on the fire and scorched it. It was only a few minutes, and the smell was so bad that everyone wanted to vomit. It was still Wang Yueyue who was clever and hurriedly moved to rescue the soldiers, and the bearded correspondent came.

"Xiao Zheng, hand over to you a glorious and arduous figure", Wang Yueyue gave Xiao Zheng a standard military salute in a serious manner. Xiao Zheng was a little unsure of what medicine was sold in Yueyue's gourd, so he returned the salute and asked with a serious expression: "What's the matter?" Wang Yueyue pointed with her hand and said, "It's hard for you to dry those locusts and grind them into powder." Xiao Zheng really didn't want to do that, but Wang Yueyue's high hat was already worn, and he was embarrassed to push it back, and he finished this half-pull project alone.

Li Lan trotted all the way to Company Commander Qi. Company Commander Qi seemed to be no longer breathing, Li Lan listened with a stethoscope, and Company Commander Qi was still alive. So he carefully smeared the powdered locust scum evenly on the wound, and the body of Commander Qi twitched violently.

After taking the medicine, Li Lan guarded Company Commander Qi's side like a relative, fed him water, and gave him some antibiotics. In less than two hours, Qi Lianchang's injuries began to improve, and the blood was less, and it seemed that the locust powder still had some effect.

Li Lan's heart was somewhat comforted, she just wanted to get up and leave, when Company Commander Qi suddenly opened his eyes, pulled Li Lan's clothes with his weak hand, and motioned for Li Lan to open the satchel next to the pillow. Li Lan hesitated for a moment, opened his satchel, there were 9 oceans and a photo, 9 oceans were wrapped in a newspaper, neatly and neatly, there were three people in the photo, the young officer must be him, a woman of about 50 is estimated to be his mother, and a young and beautiful girl may be his sister or wife.

Lian Chang Qi struggled to raise his head and glanced at the photo, only saying the word "mother", like a lamp that had run out of oil, slowly extinguished. Li Lan's tears dripped silently, she was thinking about how much Lian Commander Qi missed her mother and his relatives at this moment. Li Lan looked at Captain Zhao next to him, and tears were rolling in his eyes.

Although the powder ground by the locusts did not cure Company Commander Qi, this thing was indeed very effective, and later it also cured several soldiers who were infested by the locusts.

Li Lan put the ocean and the photo back into his satchel, and said to Commander Zhao, who was sorting out the relics of Company Commander Qi, "Commander Zhao, I will leave the address of Company Commander Qi's home another day, if I can get out of Lu alive one day, I want to go and see his mother." "Xiao Li, wait a minute, I'll copy it to you now", Head Zhao was afraid that he would forget this important matter in the future.

Li Lan took the note from Head Zhao, put it in his pocket, and said goodbye to Head Zhao with a heavy heart. In the hazy eyes of tears, her eyes seemed to appear in front of her eyes, and the scene of the son of Lian Chang's mother looking at the door of the house seemed to appear.
