Chapter 23: Wang Cheng
With the passage of time, the young man's condition has improved little by little, and the high fever has almost subsided, but there is no sign of waking up for the time being, and Liu Er is also the same, he has eaten mantis shrimp meat twice so far, and he has not shown any abnormal symptoms, and it can be basically determined which meat will not be dangerous after eating.
Today is August 6th, the sixth day of the coldest month, the temperature outside the classroom has reached minus 45 degrees, three or four degrees lower than the last coldest month, and the curtains of other classrooms are frozen hard, as hard as wooden planks.
Zhou Yunfeng sat alone next to the fire, staring at the flames blankly, as if he was thinking about something.
Suddenly, a slight cough caught his attention, and he subconsciously turned his head away.
The young man woke up, opened his mouth and coughed twice.
"You're finally awake!" Zhou Yunfeng walked over and could see that he was very weak, and even when he opened his eyelids, he looked weak, so he pulled him up from his lying position and put something behind him to make a backrest.
"Water...""Give me some water......"
The young man's face was unusually pale, he felt very thirsty, and the first word that came to his mouth was water.
Seeing this, Zhou Yunfeng took the kettle, unscrewed the lid and brought it to the young man's mouth, just like a long drought and a rainy day, the young man took a sip, then raised his hands with difficulty to hold the kettle, poured warm water into his mouth, and moved his Adam's apple up and down.
In less than ten seconds, he drank all the water in the kettle.
The young man put down the kettle, let out a breath in his mouth, looked at Zhou Yunfeng carefully, his lips moved, and he said weakly: "Who are you?" Where am I? ”
"My name is Zhou Yunfeng, I found you in this classroom a few days ago, you almost froze to death at that time, and now you are still in the same place, the difference is that you are out of danger of life."
While speaking, Zhou Yunfeng took out a few packets of biscuits from his backpack and threw them in front of the young man.
"Thank you for saving me, my name is Wang Cheng, and I am a sophomore here, by the way, how could I be in a coma for so long?" Even if Zhou Yunfeng didn't say it, Wang Cheng knew that he was rescued, and he still remembered the memories before he fell into a coma.
At that time, he knew that he was not far from death, and now he was still alive and sitting by the fire, and someone must have saved him.
"You have to thank not only me, but also the one over there, who is my friend Lu Xing." Zhou Yunfeng said as he pointed his finger at Lu Xing, who was still asleep.
Retracting his right hand, Zhou Yunfeng continued: "From the time we found you, so far you have been in a coma for more than 7 days, during which you still have a high fever, reaching about 42 degrees, you can survive and count your fate, if you burn to this extent, nine out of ten will die, obviously you are lucky......"
"I see! Thank you so much for saving your life! ”
After listening to this, Wang Cheng also felt that his fate was great, and it was luck to survive, of course, the main reason was the help of Zhou Yunfeng and Lu Xing, otherwise he would have been on Huangquan Road now.
"By the way, why did you stay alone in the cold classroom, and you still have one student, why are you still in this academy, the other students should have left a long time ago, what happened?"
Knowing that Wang Cheng was a student here, Zhou Yunfeng felt very strange about this, the entire academy was basically empty, and the students should have left and gone home a long time ago, but he didn't expect that there were still students staying here, and he was very curious about the reason.
"That's right, I should have returned home by now, but there was an accident at the time......" Wang Cheng shook his head helplessly, and slowly recounted.
Eight months ago, when the blue full moon appeared, they had not yet had winter vacation, and at the beginning, the college did not suspend classes until two days later, when the temperature was getting lower and lower day by day, and the official announcement began to be made that all places were closed, and the school also prepared vehicles to transport them, and the students left the school in an orderly manner and returned to their homes.
Because of the limited number of vehicles and the fact that there were as many as seven or eight thousand students, Wang Cheng was unlucky and was arranged in the last batch, and waited for several days to finally get him.
As a result, the car was not far away from the school, because the road was icy and slippery, which led to an accident, hit an obstacle, the driver was killed on the spot, and more than 20 people who were still alive in the car got out of the car and returned to the college, but at this time the college was empty.
Afterwards, Wang Cheng and others tried to call for help, but found that there was no signal at all, the phone could not be called, and they went to a nearby village for help, but there was no signal, so they had to stay in the college temporarily, waiting for the rescue to arrive, but unfortunately they did not wait for the rescue.
There was plenty of food in the academy, and more than 20 of them would not starve to death, but in March, a group of uninvited guests came, and a group of criminals somehow came here and found that Wang Cheng and others were already a group of felons, and they soon became ill-willed.
After the gang of criminals arrested Wang Cheng and others, they used the boys as cattle and horses, and they were beaten severely if they were disobedient, and Wang Cheng's injuries came from this, and several of the girls were also destroyed by them, and one of them committed suicide not long after.
When the polluting radiation appeared, the polluters gradually appeared, and the darkest side of the gang of criminals was completely exposed, and there were about 20 of them, plus 20 or so students, almost 50 people, and finally the number of polluters reached one-third.
In order to kill the polluters in the academy, the remaining dozen or so criminals used a few students as bait and shields, and finally succeeded, killing the few polluters in the academy, but it also led to the death of seven or eight students, and the few who survived also lived a life of being severely beaten every day and not having enough to eat.
It wasn't until later that Wang Cheng found an opportunity to sneak out, in order to avoid being found and arrested, he didn't dare to walk around, and he didn't dare to leave the academy.
Not daring to venture out of the academy, Wang Cheng had to hide in the teaching building, not even daring to make a fire, for fear of being discovered by the gang of criminals and coming to the door, as the temperature became colder day by day, he finally fainted because he was too hungry, and finally almost froze to death in the classroom, until he was discovered by Zhou Yunfeng and Lu Xing.
"The information he said is a little different from Liu Er, it seems that Liu Er really didn't tell the truth!" After listening to Wang Cheng's description, Zhou Yunfeng thought in his heart.
What Wang Cheng just said, compared with the information disclosed by Liu Er before, there is an obvious discrepancy, and the group of criminals should only be 9 people now, not 11 people.
And those who were arrested were not nearby villagers, but students who did not have time to leave, and there are still 8 people, including Wang Cheng, six boys and two girls.
Liu Er didn't mention the matter of using students as bait and shielding the arrow, but he didn't mention anything related to their cruelty, and deliberately concealed a lot, if it wasn't for Wang Cheng's mouth, Zhou Yunfeng really couldn't imagine that they acted so cruelly.
At this time, Wang Cheng hadn't noticed Liu Er who was tied to the corner.
Zhou Yunfeng knew that he didn't find Liu Er, so he didn't remind him for the time being, and after letting him eat something, he continued to lie down and rest.
Zhou Yunfeng himself set up an iron pot on the side, preparing to cook a meal of broth to supplement Wang Cheng's nutrition.
After Wang Cheng ate and drank water, his body was also very tired, and he fell asleep within two minutes of lying down.
…………
After observing Liu Er for a week, Lu Xing and Zhou Yunfeng were sure that those mantis shrimp meat was okay and could be eaten with confidence. I'm going to try it today, this time in addition to some jerky, there are also four or five catties of shrimp meat in the pot, and they can enjoy it at one time.
His craftsmanship is very ordinary, but this time he put a lot of mantis shrimp meat, and the taste is immediately different, and the fragrance he smelled when he sat next to him, as soon as he smelled this fragrance, he couldn't help but drool, and it was much more fragrant than any food he had smelled before.
A pot of soup had been boiled for a long time, and when the broth was almost ready, Lu Xing also sobered up.
"The taste is so strong, how much mantis shrimp meat do you put in?" Lu Xing twisted his neck, walked to the fire, sat down and asked.
"At least more than four catties, I haven't weighed it specifically, and I have put a lot of jerky, this time we can have a good time!" Zhou Yunfeng replied as he stirred a few times in the pot with a spoon.
"There's a lot of meat, but if you really want to eat enough, it may not be enough."
These seem like a lot, but it is still impossible for them to be completely full now, the amount of food for the two is not what it used to be, and it is not a problem for one person to eat a few catties of meat alone.
"The pot is so big, it's not enough to wait for another pot to cook." Zhou Yunfeng said lightly, it's not that he doesn't want to put more meat, but the size of the pot is limited, and he can't put too many things.
"By the way, that person just woke up once, I have already asked about something, that Liu Er really didn't tell the truth, and he hid a lot of things......" Putting the lid on the pot, Zhou Yunfeng talked about Wang Cheng.
"Well, it's pretty much the same as I guessed, most of the information is not true, but the fact that their boss has crystals should be true, the number is not necessarily two, it may be more or only one."
After Zhou Yunfeng finished speaking, Lu Xinghou nodded, he didn't believe what Liu Er said, only the matter of crystals was more credible, and he didn't think Liu Er's reaction at that time was fake.
"Then what are you going to do with Liu Er now?" Zhou Yunfeng asked with interest.
"Leave him alone for now, it's still useful to keep it, and I'll talk about it when I'm done eating, but I still have to get rid of him in the end." Lu Xing replied expressionlessly.
"I think even if he didn't lie, you wouldn't let him go." With Lu Xing's personality, he didn't think that letting Liu Er be let go, because this was tantamount to letting the tiger return to the mountain, even if he didn't lie, most of the results would be the same.
It is impossible for Lu Xing to be unbearable and make a move to release people without killing Liu Er, unless the sun comes out in the west.
"It's almost, it's just that the way of dying is different, and the result is the same." Lu Xing nodded.
For people like Liu Er, Zhou Yunfeng will not have the slightest sympathy, if he makes the decision, although he will not kill him with his own hands, it will not make him feel better.
After a while, the iron pot on the fire was taken down, and smelling the fragrance coming to his face, Zhou Yunfeng's stomach screamed unconsciously, and then he picked up a pair of chopsticks, picked up a large piece of meat, and sent it to his mouth. Lu Xing also picked up a piece, put it in his mouth, and chewed it a few times without hurrying.
The meat is elastic and crispy, with an indescribable peculiar texture.
The most important thing is that it is very fragrant, although it has been placed for a long time, but at ultra-low temperatures, it is well preserved, basically not spoiled, and this is still uncompressed meat, if it is replaced by those compressed in the notebook, the taste is estimated to be better.
"This one tastes really good, it's better than any other meat I've eaten before, it's very chewy, even I, who can't cook, it's so delicious in a random pot of stew, it's very good!" After swallowing a large piece of meat, Zhou Yunfeng couldn't help but praise.
Lu Xing also thought that the meat was very good, but he didn't say anything, just ate it silently and didn't express any opinions.
(ps: It's still zero recommendation, am I writing too badly and being hit hard...... 555555)
