Chapter 75: Quicklime
At least so far, most of the corpses they collected were starved to death, and a few died of disease, and they did not get the plague, which Zhiwen is still sure of.
Since there is nowhere to escape, what should be done in the first place, let's do it in the future, collect as many of these ownerless corpses as possible, and eliminate the hidden danger of the outbreak of the plague.
Of course, you have to try your best to ensure your health, this father and son's method of covering their mouths and noses with strips of cloth is worth emulating, Zhiwen remembered that there should still be cloth in the system warehouse, which was left after Zhiwen Niang made clothes for a family of four at that time.
Now since there is no need to make clothes, let's take it out and make this kind of cloth strip mask, so many people, there are not enough clothes to make, but everyone cuts a strip of cloth to make a mask.
At this time, a new tomb had been built, and Zhiwen walked in front of the father and son, and according to the style in the film and television dramas of his previous life in his memory, he clasped his hands into fists and saluted.
"This uncle, you are a doctor...... Doctor? ”
"Huh? How do you know I'm a doctor? The elder returned the salute and asked in surprise.
"Ugh!" Zhiwen didn't know how to answer for a while, he just made a mistake and wanted to ask if the other party was a doctor.
"I saw that you just covered your mouth and nose with it," Zhiwen pointed to the strip of cloth that the other party was already hanging around his neck at the moment, "and sprinkled quicklime before burying the corpse, I think only a doctor would do this." ”
"Someone in the family is a doctor?" The elder smiled and asked, otherwise how could he be so familiar with the doctor's style.
"No, no." Zhiwen hurriedly denied that he didn't dare to take out the level of traditional Chinese medicine in half a bottle of water, which was embarrassing and conspicuous.
"I've seen other doctors do this."
"Yes, I'm a doctor." The other party admitted with a smile.
"This big ......" Zhiwen was interrupted by the other party as soon as he spoke.
"Call me Uncle Sun," Dr. Sun pointed to the kid beside him, "just call him eight thousand, and thank you for your help just now." ”
"Otherwise, my father and son really can't do anything about these two animals for a while." Uncle Sun sincerely thanked him.
"It's a small favor, it's just a small favor." Zhiwen didn't pay attention to the help just now, "We just relied on the large number of people to scare those two dogs away." ”
"Uncle Sun, was the lime powder sprinkled by the eight thousand just now?" Zhiwen's mind is now on this lime, and he doesn't care about the strange name of eight thousand.
Since I can't go, I decided to continue to bury the corpse, in addition to the cloth mask, this quicklime is also very necessary, if it is really due to illness, sprinkle it when buried, it will have a little effect.
When he was still in the county seat, Zhiwen had seen quicklime sold, but at that time, who would have thought that it could come in handy now, Zhiwen had no reserves, and now he can only find a way to get some from the father and son.
"Yes, this quicklime, one can isolate the smell, so that the beast will not smell the smell and then dig out the corpse, and the other can repel insects and avoid epidemics...... Dr. Sun began to explain the role of quicklime to everyone in detail.
Zhiwen knows all these things, even better than Dr. Sun knows, after all, he used to be a doctor in his previous life, but he still patiently listened to Uncle Sun's speech.
He was about to open his mouth to ask Uncle Sun for quicklime, but he didn't want Dr. Sun to change his words, and then said: "I see that you are doing the same thing as my father and son, both of whom have good intentions and spontaneously collect these ownerless corpses. ”
"However, it is better for you to be like my father and son, and make a strip of cloth to cover your mouth and nose when you work, so as to prevent the invasion of the epidemic." As he spoke, he pointed to the tattered strip of cloth around his neck.
"Also, before you buried the body, you didn't know about spreading a layer of lime, I won't say more about the benefits of sprinkling lime, there are still some here, I will share some with you, in the future, remember to sprinkle a layer of lime powder before covering the soil."
"Alas, these corpses should have been burned, but first, there is not enough firewood, and secondly, there are a few children of our Han family who are willing to have no bones!"
With that, he patted his son on the shoulder and motioned for him to take things out.
This is really sleepy, someone handed a pillow, Zhiwen was still thinking about how to ask Dr. Sun for lime, so they took the initiative to give it to them.
"Dad, we don't have much lime." Yachihan didn't move, stood in place and looked up and said to his father.
"It's okay, it's all used to help people bury corpses." Doctor Sun stretched out his hand to untie the burden on Baqian's shoulders, took out a paper bag from it and handed it to Zhiwen.
"Ah, I'm sorry, this little brother, after talking for so long, I still don't know what to call it?" , a little embarrassed between the words, he had already seen that Zhiwen was the core of this group of people, but after chatting for a long time, he actually forgot to ask the other party's name.
"Just call me Xiaozhi, Uncle Sun." Zhiwen stretched out his hand to take the paper bag, the weight was not light, it was estimated to be more than ten or twenty catties, "Thank you, I wanted to ask you for some just now." ”
Now I am more interested in Zhiwen, the father and son of the Sun family, in addition to the lime in the burden of eight thousand, there are still a lot of things left, so the original weight of this burden must be about thirty catties, and the burden on Dr. Sun's body is not small, and the weight will definitely not be lighter than that of eight thousand.
Dr. Sun is tall, and at the age of 8,000, he looks about the same as Zhiwen, and his height is on par with Zhiwen, and more importantly, the faces of the two are not as yellow as other refugees.
The bodies of these two people are not weak, they can even be said to be strong, even if they are Zhiwen, before practicing, they are not as good as Sun Bo and Baqian.
As a doctor, is it a family relationship? Do you have a way to strengthen your body?
"Besides, my father will burn this lime, and I will find a stone mountain to burn a kiln in two days." Dr. Sun is still teaching eight thousand.
Oh? It also burns lime. Zhiwen's eyes lit up when he heard this.
"Uncle Sun, do you still have lime in your baggage?" Zhiwen looked at Dr. Sun with a pure and flawless smile on his face.
"This kid!" Doctor Sun smiled and said, "Yes, there are still ones, but we also have to use them, so we can't give them to you anymore." Use it first, and come to me when you're done. ”
"Then how are we looking for you, Uncle Sun?" Nan Nan followed up in time and asked in a sweet voice.
Doctor Sun didn't like this very much, and simply said: "In the next two days, I will find a place to burn a kiln of lime, which is not too far from the main road, you should be able to find it if you are careful." ”
"Farewell!" The Sun father and son did not drag their feet at all, and waved goodbye.
Tsk, if only I could fool this father and son.
Although I think this idea is a bit unrealistic at the moment, when we met for the first time, I only helped people pick up two dogs, and I wanted people to bow down?
But Zhiwen still couldn't help but think so.
There is a doctor in the team, and there are too many benefits, at least everyone's life safety is guaranteed.
And as a doctor, Uncle Sun can burn lime, and he is still an all-rounder.
