Chapter 038: A Good Show!
"Dongzi!! Dongzi !! You can't sleep, Dongzi!! Wake up......"
Dongzi's eyes were closed, and while picking him up, I felt that his forehead was very hot, as if he had a high fever, and I was extremely worried for a while.
"Bring him in."
Seeing my anxious expression, the man seemed to be moved by this affection, and his eyes shrank a few times. Turning around and pushing open the door, let me take Dongzi in.
Hearing this, Chen Fei and I carried Dongzi on our feet, took him into the man's house, and followed the man to a bedroom in front of a double bed.
The man pulled one side apart, swept Dongzi on the bed to one side, and motioned for me to put him on the bed. Then he beckoned his daughter to get some tools.
In the meantime, I looked around and saw a little boy lying on the couch next to the bed, and I saw that we were looking up and peeking.
His skin was black, with short curly hair, two big round eyes staring at me, and he was surprisingly thin, which I think might have something to do with an infectious disease!
"His name is Jim, and he's a half-breed. His family was mutated yesterday, locked in my room by me, and shot to death by your friends. ”
"Yesterday, he was at my house, just after his fifth birthday. Unfortunately, he, like this friend of yours, is also suffering from an infection. ”
The man explained to me, took out a flashlight from his pocket, opened Toko's eyelids and examined it, and broke Toko's mouth to look in.
"Good news. You should be glad that your friend sent him in time and has no tendency to be a corpse, otherwise you would have killed him with your own hands. ”
After checking for a while, the man put away the flashlight and walked up to my side, "The bad news is that there is only one bottle of medicine left for treatment!" ”
As the words fell, his eyes swept to Jim, who held in Jim's hand a vial of medicine that was useful and precious for this infectious disease.
At this time, on Dongzi's arm, the few green tendons that had originally burst out began to gradually turn black. Several black acne grew on his face, secreting black blood outward.
His face was very weak, still in a coma, and his body instinctively coughed, and with coughing, fresh black blood spurted out.
When we visited late at night, we disturbed Jim's rest, and he was lying on the couch, sitting up and walking over with a pair of slippers.
In his arms, he always held a teddy bear, which was a gift from this man for his fifth birthday yesterday, and he liked it very much.
"Don't be afraid, it's okay."
Jim walked up to the man and hid behind him, the man reached out and stroked his head, and as he stroked it, a large chunk of Jim's curly hair fell out.
I saw this detail. The man winked and motioned for me not to squeak. Because he knew that Jim's condition had deteriorated again!
This special medicine was originally used to feed livestock, but the organ structure of humans and animals is roughly the same, so it can also be taken.
The medicine bottle in Jim's hand was actually out of medicine, and he didn't want Jim to know, so he filled the empty bottle with candy.
He tells Jim that as long as he eats the medicine (candy) inside, he will get better. You can take him to meet his parents and reunite them as a family.
Because the medication was consumed, Jim had been off the medication for three days and began to experience severe hair loss. In order to prevent him from seeing, the man hid all the mirrors in the house.
"Jim, it's time for the pills!"
The man tucked a handful of Jim's hair into his trouser pocket in his left hand and smiled and reminded him to take his medicine. Jim nodded and handed the vial to the man.
Because before, he had asked Jim to take the "medicine" himself, so it is not clear whether he took it or not. When the cap was opened, the man burst into tears and forcibly held back.
I saw that inside the medicine bottle, he filled the candy for Jim, and Jim was stunned that he didn't eat a single one.
"Mom is sick too, I'm fine. I'm a man! I want to leave the medicine for her, give it to her when I see her, and feed her. ”
Hearing Jim's explanation, the man turned to look out the window, and his tear ducts were already uncontrollable. On the side, my eyes were moist and I breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Jim, obedient! Your dad and mom, they have medicine every day, and if you don't take medicine, you'll get sick and you'll see them later. ”
The man turned around, his back to Jim, choking, as if he couldn't make a sound, and I began to play in order to fulfill his lie.
As soon as he heard that he couldn't see his parents without taking medicine, Jim immediately panicked, grabbed the corner of his clothes with one hand, and hurriedly said that he would be obedient and would take medicine.
At that moment, the woman walked in with a tray and saw that I was coaxing Jim, and smiled at me, knowing that I had learned the truth.
On that tray lay a breathing mask and an oxygen cylinder that was running out. Of course, I borrowed it from other patients.
This woman, he and the man in front of him are father and daughter. The man's name is Lao Mai, 42 years old. The woman's name was Martha, and she was his only daughter.
This farm belongs to the old Mai woman, who had been suffering from heart disease, and on the fourth day of the virus outbreak, she also mutated into a walking corpse.
She was kept in the barn by Lao Mai, and every day she would be regularly fed, that is, some livestock would be put in.
Only living creatures will have a more appetite, she is different from other walking corpses. When there is no food, she will stay in the corner and be very quiet.
It is precisely because of this that Lao Mai will always feel that she has not changed, and she is still by his side.
In this vicinity, there were originally a few farms, but after the outbreak of the virus, the farmers all left here one after another, and only Lao Mai did not leave.
He loves it, he's lived here for most of his life, and there's so much to remember here. And he has a reason to stay, and that is to protect his wife!
Even if she becomes a walking corpse, as long as you can see her every day, Lao Mai will be very happy. Sometimes I would lean my back to the barn and chat with her.
Every time he talked about the past, he would recall a lot of past events, and he couldn't help but want to hug her, but reason would tell him over and over again that he couldn't!
As for the patients who were suffering from infectious diseases on his farm, they were also survivors who had been displaced here, abandoned by their companions from the team, and taken in by Lao Mai.
Lao Mai didn't know what this infectious disease was, and the first person to discover this disease was his daughter Martha. The first row of patients is a horse!
When the horse was sick, he suddenly lost weight for a short time, his eyes turned blood-red, and black blood flowed from the seven orifices, and Lao Mai was a veterinarian, but he couldn't tell what the disease was.
In all his years of medical practice, he had never seen a similar illness, so it was a real headache for him. Therefore, he is also a dead horse as a live horse doctor.
Using imported medicine bought from a friend in the early years, he crushed it and added it to the horse's feed, and finally found that the disease was under control.
When one of the survivors he took in had similar symptoms, he was also trying to cut the amount of food the horse ate by half.
In the end, it was found that after taking this medicine, the condition of humans would also improve, and gradually recover, so he dared to continue to take it for them.
Because of this infectious disease, which is very contagious, the number of people who get sick begins to grow more and more, and this medicine has been eaten up three days ago.
After stopping the drug, Jim's parents failed to resist the disease and were turned into walking corpses by the virus after death.
