Chapter Eighty-Three: Who to Choose, Who to Give Up

"Li Yu, I want to take off this," Li Yiwan tugged at the belt around her eyes, "I've seen the process of your treatment for me, and it's nothing." ”
"If you don't let you see, you won't be allowed to see, where did so many words come from, close your eyes and sleep." Li Yu was unceremonious, and Li Yiwan could only lie down obediently.
Just go to bed, I'm tired and sleepy anyway. Thinking like this, Li Yiwan only felt sore, and soon, she fell asleep.
Li Yu put Li Yiwan beside him and said, "Come here." ”
Everyone* stood together, although there was a little embarrassment, but compared with their lives, standing here was more of a trepidation.
Except for some old people who are fine, everyone else has it.
The most serious person has a swollen body, and his body is full of bulging large cells, red and red, and some cells even have a faint tendency to break, leaving only a layer of red but still yellowish skin, which looks like it will break when touched. Li Yu frowned, and reached out to sense the insect eggs on this person's body, most of them had hatched into larvae, and moreover, quite a few larvae had grown up and were about to emerge as adults. "How long have you been here? Why didn't you say it earlier? Li Yu said while exercising.
"From the time there was a red dot to now, it's been about seven days." The man was also a little scared, he thought it was just an ordinary illness, but after seeing Pei Yong being devoured by ten thousand insects today, his body was also full of red dots, and he couldn't help but think of himself.
Li Yu picked up the thicker fallen branches from the ground, "Biting it, it hurts." ”
The man did so, and Li Yu began to exercise, trying to kill those insects, Li Yu just touched an adult worm that had already drilled to the edge of the skin and was about to come out, and suddenly all the adults in this person's body were frightened, squeaking and squeaking, scrambling to drill out.
Li Yu was shocked, the light was great, and the energy was dispersed into countless points of light, which submerged into the person's skin, and at the same time enveloped all the adults who wanted to escape, these adults struggled to resist, and the adult body was not as soft as the larvae, and there was a hard shell outside the body, which was difficult to destroy. It takes about 2.5 times more energy to kill an adult than a larvae.
It took Li Yu a full hour to heal the man, and he had to be carefully examined to make sure that there were no red spots on his body, and Li Yu took the opportunity to rest.
Li Yiwan turned over, happened to touch Li Yu's thigh, rubbed her body and pillowed her head on Li Yu's lap, and continued to sleep comfortably. Li Yu smiled dumbly.
No, it can't go on like this, it consumes too much energy.
Li Yu said, "I just found out that the bigger the cell, the more energy is consumed, there is no way to cure you all tonight, you rest here first, I will check the people with swollen red cells first, save their lives first, and then treat them slowly." ”
"Listen to Lord Li, you go to sleep first, and I'll keep vigil tonight." After settling down the people, they made their rounds around.
Li Yu looked at the seriously ill people one by one, only one of them was the same as the previous person, the body was full of adult worms, and the disease was urgent, when Li Yu eliminated all the adult worms in his body, there was not much energy left in the body. I'll have to give up tonight.
"That's it for tonight, don't worry, you don't have to worry about your lives, I'll heal you. Go to sleep, too. Li Yuqiang held back his sleepiness, "I'll recover and continue tomorrow." ”
The eight people who were swollen with red cells dispersed, and the two who were cured were grateful to Li Yu and thanked them repeatedly, and one of them ran back to the tent and brought a blanket for Li Yiwan, and Li Yu accepted it with a smile. Some of the six people who were not treated did not care, and some were afraid, but they all fell asleep one after another.
Li Yu meditated and meditated, guarding his post responsibly.
The next morning, Li Yu's energy was only half recovered, and he could only treat one person, and he continued to recover in the afternoon, just enough to treat one person again.
In this way, he can only heal two seriously ill people in a day. And when a seriously ill person recovers, a person who was still mild becomes a seriously ill person, and so on. There are too many people to save themselves, so who to save and who to give up, how to deal with it?
Li Yu told Gou Bu about his worries.
I can't help it.
Time passed.
As long as Li Yiwan stays in the crowd, she will be blindfolded, no matter how Li Yiwan resists, Li Yu can only coax her, after all, there are more and more people who are seriously ill, and because they need to observe their condition at all times, more and more people can only * body. put Li Yiwan alone in the tent, Li Yu was not at ease, so she could only blindfold Li Yiwan and let her stay by her side.
Li Yiwan hasn't seen the light of day for many days.
Li Yu hugged Li Yiwan distressedly, "Yiwan, just wait." ”
Li Yiwan stayed by Li Yu's side meekly, "Li Yu, although I can't see it, I can also feel that you are very tired." I know, you did your best. ”
Li Yu was silent.
Li Yiwan put her arm around her and stopped talking.
Another night.
Li Yu treats two people every day. Two days later, five people were in urgent need of treatment. The time has come to make a decision. One of the five seriously ill people was extremely serious, because some of his cells had begun to bleed pus, and yellow water was flowing all over his body. These days, they see Li Yu's dedication in their eyes, and they know in their hearts how many people Li Yu can treat in a day.
The mood of the five people was extremely heavy. They are all friends who have lived together for most of their lives, and no one wants to take away the hope of other people's survival because of themselves. The five of them just sat silently on the ground, waiting for Li Yu's arrangement, and they could only resign themselves to fate.
On this day, Li Yu didn't call someone to come to him for a long time. Everyone knows that when Li Yu called the two people, it was equivalent to announcing the death of the three people who were not called.
No one in the settlement wanted to talk much, and most of the time they kept quiet, with their ears pricked up, for fear of missing something.
In the afternoon, when Li Yu recovered completely, he said in a deep voice, "Liu Sheng, Sun Qian, you two go over." ”
The two people who were called by name trembled and walked to Li Yu's side tremblingly.
One of them suddenly knelt down to the remaining three, "I, Liu Sheng, have never owed favors in my life," Liu Sheng cried silently, "I can live in the world today, thank you for not being with the three." If there is a next life, I will make you cattle and horses, and I will die for you. It's just that in this life, I am really reluctant. ”
The other knelt down slowly, his eyes bloodshot.
Li Yu stepped forward to treat the two.
"Liu Sheng, the old and the young in your family, who do they rely on to live if you die, you just give Lao Tzu a good life!" One of the three seriously ill suddenly spoke, and smiled at Liu Sheng, who was being treated, "It's rare for Lao Tzu to do a good deed, it's really happy, if he really has a next life, Lao Tzu will do a good thing for a lifetime!" ”
The man struggled to stand up and got dressed, "Master Li, can you cast my body into a puppet and give it to my family Ah Fen, when my mother died three years ago, I sent her body to Hades, and Hades kept saying that it was not done, and then I went again after a long time, and they told me that if the puppet is not received within a year, it will be considered an ownerless thing and belong to Hades." Ah Fen and I don't understand the twists and turns in this, so this time I want to ask Master Li to call the shots, when I die, refine me into a puppet, give me Ah Fen, Ah Fen has been with me for ten years, and I haven't had a good life, I..." I, I can only do so much for her. The man's face had traces carved by the years, and at this moment, tears seemed to enter the canal, moistening the man's dry face, "My life..."
The remaining two also looked at Li Yu, but Li Yu was too busy with treatment to take care of it. The two had no choice but to speak, "There's Lord Lao Li." Then the two of them also dressed up and went back to the tent.
After a long time, Li Yucai healed the two. There was no joy on their faces, but a heavier sorrow. The crowd was silent.
Li Yiwan gently tugged at Li Yu's sleeve, "Why don't you call some stewards of the underworld?" Aren't they also healing? ”
"Yiwan, they will only use the simplest healing techniques." Li Yu said softly.
Li Yiwan was dumbfounded.
Everyone lived as usual, only more reticently, and everyone understood that more people might die in the future.
After dinner, Li Yu summoned everyone back and warned everyone to stay in the fire ring and not to go out. The crowd obeyed.
An hour later, screams came from a tent and lasted for half an hour. Li Yiwan grabbed Li Yu's sleeve tightly, Li Yu didn't pick up Li Yiwan, but just held Li Yiwan's hand, which was already all the strength he could use. The reason why he didn't dare to let Li Yiwan take off his belt was also because he didn't want her to see what he was like now, no human being, no ghost or ghost, where was there still half a point before the appearance of a handsome son.
In the evening, two more screams rang out, and everyone remained silently in the ring of fire. Since the insects were found, they no longer live in tents, but all live in the open air in the ring of fire.
"Why don't we take them away, you can't be the only one in the world who can cure this disease." Li Yiwan raised her head, although she couldn't see Li Yu, she still raised her head, "I want to take them out, we can't let them wait here to die, those two officers and soldiers, they haven't come back since they couldn't send someone to find them." ”
"Yiwan, this is already my greatest kindness." Li Yu took off the belt that covered Li Yiwan's eyes.
Li Yiwan covered her eyes and adapted to the light little by little, which was extremely uncomfortable.
And when she got used to the light and looked at the people around her, she was surprised, dazed, frightened, pitiful... Complex emotions accumulated in my heart, gathered a torrent, turned into tears, and fell silently.
The people around him have long been lifeless, like a pile of walking corpses, naked, numb, most of the red cells on their bodies are bright and dazzling, and some people's cells are faintly yellow. Li Yu's face did not have the slightest blood, his eyes were deeply sunken, his lips were dry, and there was a string of blisters at the corners of his mouth, Li Yiwan hugged Li Yu, trembling all over, patted Li Yu's back, and muttered, "Don't be afraid, not afraid." ”
