Chapter 160: The Ward
I looked at the little red riding hood in the heavy rain, did not move for a long time, and then rubbed my temples, doubted, and continued on my way. Could it be that I am too sensitive, nervous, and associated with murderous maniacs when I see something red.
Ever since I helped the little ghost in Su Ye Town, I feel that nothing is right, my life is extremely chaotic, my physical condition is not good, I am always in a dream, and I feel like I can't wake up every day, and my brain is confused.
The reason why I didn't tell Qian Mingwen about seeing the red hat for the time being was because I was afraid that I would be too suspicious and make everyone else.
I'm extremely worried, will the little ghost's ghost all come to me? After the ghost is lost, many people will have auditory and visual hallucinations, and their emotions are difficult to control, should I also take this path? The more you look at it, the more it looks like a precursor to schizophrenia.
When I arrived at the hospital, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and I couldn't hold my umbrella. The whole hospital was lit in the heavy rain of the dark night, and the white light was oppressive and thick, and even on such a night, there were still many people queuing up for treatment. The moment I walked into the hospital, I felt like a big stone had sunk in my heart, and I was extremely anxious, more timid and helpless.
I squeezed into the elevator with water all over my body, and when I got to the inpatient department on the fourth floor, I saw my sister outside the ICU. My sister is in a good state of mind, she is chatting with Liu Dong, and the two are still talking and laughing. Seeing that I was coming, my sister was distressed: "Brother, don't come here in such a heavy rain, I can do it tonight." ”
I waved my hand and motioned for the question to be abandoned. I whispered, "How's Mom?" ”
"It's stable." My sister breathed a sigh of relief, and then a cloud spread between her eyebrows: "Just like the doctor said, the risk of surgery is too great, if you really push into the operating room, there is a high chance that you will have to be on the operating table." Now we can only treat conservatively, with regular physical examinations and hospitalization, to put it bluntly, it depends on time, and there is no good treatment in the hospital to save my mother. ”
As my sister spoke, tears came out of my eyes. Liu Dong hurriedly handed over the tissue and gently hugged her shoulder.
I said, "I went back and found the prescription you said." ”
"Ah, how is it written, what is needed?" My sister hurriedly said.
I said, "Liu Dong is not an outsider, let's have a small family meeting." ”
Liu Dong sat precariously: "Brother, you said, if you need my help, it must be incumbent." ”
I took out the prescription, showed them to the two of them, and then said, "The other materials above are easy to say, but they need a very important medicine guide, which is the ashes that the master has blessed." ”
"This, this is superstition, isn't it?" Liu Dong was dumbfounded: "Ashes into medicine? ”
I said, "Liu Dong, you still don't understand the feelings of our families. Now that we have reached this situation, our family members no longer think about scientific and superstitious things, and want to try everything. Of course, this recipe is not a folk earthwork, it is not a foot doctor, it is opened by the third uncle. My third uncle is a first-class master, and he can't harm his sister, so I want to try. ”
"Brother, try it, I support you." My sister said.
I briefly talked about asking for help from Qian Mingwen, but I didn't mention Little Red Riding Hood, for fear of scaring my sister. I told her that Qian Mingwen's fat man is sleeping in our living room now, don't make a fuss when you go back. You and that fat man come to the hospital tomorrow morning to find me, and I will go to the crematorium with him to get the ashes.
I told a few more words, be careful on the way home on a rainy day, Liu Dong patted his chest and said, he sent his sister back. I coughed, "You two are going back, but that, ahem." ”
My sister glared at me: "Brother, you can say whatever you want, your throat and eyes are stuffed with donkey hair." ”
I said, "Go back and rest early, don't fix anything else, even if it's done, you have to pay attention to safety, ahem." ”
My sister blushed with shame.
Liu Dong's face also turned red, and he smiled: "Brother, look at what time you say, what time is it, even if you want to fix it, you don't have that mood." ”
His sister pulled him: "Let's go, let's go, my brother has complex thoughts and hair in his head, don't pay attention to him." "The two of them are gone.
I said hello to the nurse and said that it had to be sterile all day, with the lights on 24 hours a day, and I couldn't rest in bed like I would in a normal ward. Just a small bench for me, I was uncomfortable to sit on, uncomfortable to stand, and there was no place to sleep, and this place was even more uncomfortable than the previous scum hole.
I have a habit of not falling asleep when the lights are on, and I have to turn them off, but it is impossible to turn off the lights here. My mother has been lying down and has been asleep, and sometimes she wakes up, but she sleeps for too long and doesn't recognize people very well. I said a few words to her, and she went back to sleep, and I was a little envious of her, at least there was a bed to lie on.
There were so many instruments in the ICU ward that I couldn't just move around, so I had to sit by the wall with a small bench. Every minute and every second is torment, in order to keep the sterility and temperature constant, there is no window at all, and the whole place is a claustrophobic secret room. I finally stayed up until 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, and I really had the heart to die.
The thought of at least six hours before dawn almost didn't pull into my pants, thinking that I would have to grit my teeth and sleep for a while, not to mention whether I could rest well, at least I could stay up if I fell asleep. That's when I realized why prisons have small black rooms, and prisoners who made mistakes stuffed into small black rooms don't take two days to be honest. The police also have a way to boil the eagle, don't you confess, okay, don't let you sleep, 24 hours a day, the headlights shine on your face, and you concentrate these two tortures in one. The two tortures are now serving me at the same time, is this a small blessing?
At one or two o'clock in the second half of the night, the nurse came to the ward round and told me that the patient's posture was very stable, and he could be transferred to the general ward after two more days of observation. I don't know if to be glad or helpless, I still have to work at least two night shifts in this hellish place.
In the second half of the night, I couldn't stay up anymore, so I sat on a small bench against the wall, stretched out my legs, hugged my shoulders, and barely slept in a comfortable position.
Falling asleep, I had a strange dream about someone walking around the hospital hallway. It doesn't feel like a dream, it feels real. The corridor was too dark to see who it was, so I felt that there was more than one person walking, and the footsteps were very light, and there was a feeling of fluttering and leisurely.
The corridor of the inpatient department of the hospital is very long, and from one end to the other, the average person has to breathe halfway through. At this time, in the dead of night, there were only a few white lights in the corridor, and the depths were dark, like an abyss. The footsteps seem to come out of the deepest part of the abyss.
I sat on a bench in the hallway, listening to the footsteps approaching, curious and frightened, and staring intently.
Two figures fell to the ground, it turned out to be two people, and they were about to turn around.
At this moment, for some reason, I was extremely nervous, my heart was pounding, I felt like a ghost pressing on the bed, and I couldn't breathe.
Two people walked out of the corner, one of them was covered in black shadows, he couldn't see his clothes or face, only a little red riding hood with a sharp tip on his head, which was particularly eye-catching. He was holding a child in his hand, his whole body was snow-white, his face had no facial features, only a bloody mouth, which was the little ghost worshiped by Su Ye.
I screamed and woke up violently, and it turned out to be a dream! The small bench under me overturned, and I sat on the ground with my buttocks, and the whole person was in a state of confusion.
A nurse opened the door and asked me what was wrong.
I wiped the saliva from my mouth and said with palpitations, I'm sorry, I'm sleeping.
I looked at my watch, it was almost five o'clock, and I stayed up until dawn, and I estimated that I slept for two or three hours. The nurse checked my mother's monitoring data and told me to be careful not to disturb the patient.
When she leaves, I want to go out too, but it's too troublesome to change the sterile gown back and forth, so I just stay up until my sister comes over.
Then came the stage of my unconscious, where my whole brain was empty, and my whole person was like an idiot. At about seven o'clock, my sister came, knocked on the window outside the door, and motioned for me to go out.
I shuffled my feet, walked out step by step, and changed the sterile gown. When I came outside and looked at the sunny hallway, I was about to cry, remembering the night last night, which felt like something that had happened in my previous life.
There were also Liu Dong and Qian Mingwen in the corridor, the pancakes and soy milk they bought were given to me, I found a corner in the corridor and gobbled up, Qian Mingwen patted me: "Brother, slow down, no one will rob you." ”
"Brother, didn't you sleep much last night?" Liu Dong said.
I smiled bitterly: "Not only didn't I sleep much, it was the first torture in the Manchu Qing Dynasty." ”
Liu Dong said: "Why don't I come tonight, brother, you go back and rest." ”
I'll smash it, smash it, Liu Dong is an outsider after all, I said, "I'm really embarrassed......"
My sister said, "Brother, what's so embarrassing, I asked the doctor, the old lady is in good condition, she can be transferred to the general ward in two nights at most, and we can stay overnight." ”
Qian Mingwen patted his chest. I was a little moved: "Old money, you don't need it." ”
Qian Mingwen said: "I mean I can introduce a nurse to your family, it must be professional, and the price is cheap." ”
Liu Dong's eyes lit up: "Yes, it's okay to call a nurse." ”
My sister was unhappy: "What kind of nurse is called, I asked you to keep vigil, don't you want to?" ”
I hurriedly waved my hand and signaled: "Mom, let's take a turn for the time being in the intensive care unit, and then find a nurse when we are transferred to the ward." Everyone rested for two days. ”
As he was talking, a nurse came over with a long list of bills: "Anmei's family, go to the front desk to pay." ”
Qian Mingwen took it and looked at it, sticking out his tongue: "This is a list for a few days?" ”
"One day." The nurse said, "You don't have enough money to save in the hospital, so hurry up and save more." ”
I took it and looked at it, swallowed my saliva, and it was four thousand five a day. According to this method, all the foreign wealth obtained a few days ago must be dispersed.
