56 Eternal flame and bitterness

Besides, as soon as Mu Nan and Ruan Xianchao rushed to the village committee, they each received a complete set of protective clothing, and then cooperated with the team to start nucleic acid testing, which was busy until 3 o'clock in the morning, and basically collected the nucleic acid samples of everyone in the village.

At this time, the two of them were so tired that they didn't want to move, and they sat down on the steps of the gate of the village committee. They were already soaked with sweat, so they took off their protective clothing and took a good breath.

At this time, a person who was also wearing protective clothing came out of the village committee, holding two bottles of mineral water in his hand, came to them, and handed the mineral water in his hand to them, "It's hard work, drink saliva." ”

The two of them were not polite, took the water, unscrewed the bottle cap, and drank it with their heads up, indeed, they were too thirsty to drink water in protective clothing.

"Thank you!" Ruan Xianchao didn't thank the visitor until he drank a bottle of water.

"No thanks, I should want to thank you, now that everyone else has gone back to rest, there are only three of us left, and there may be a few more people who will come over to do nucleic acid in a while, please continue to stay and help out."

"It's no problem-" Ruan Xianchao subconsciously glanced at Mu Nan, who was still drinking water, "Let's go!" ”

Mu Nan nodded at him.

At this time, the visitor noticed that these two people were not from this village, and he looked at them curiously and said, "You are not from this village, why are you here?" ”

At this time, Mu Nan also drank a bottle of water, and took over, "Yes, we came to the village to do something, and we just happened to encounter the lockdown, so we couldn't go out, so we came here to be a volunteer." Oh, what do you call it? ”

"I'm a doctor at the village clinic, and my surname is Bai." He pointed at them both with his hand, "What about you?" ”

"My name is Mu Nan," she pointed to Ruan Xianchao next to her again, "His name is Ruan Xianchao." ”

"Oh, you're here to run errands, do you have a place to stay? Would you like to be given a place to stay? "Dr. Bai actually said politely, if he really wants to arrange it, it is estimated that he will not be able to arrange it.

She hurriedly replied, "You're welcome, we have settled down at Uncle Yongyan's house." ”

Yongyan is the name of Zhou Shanshan's grandfather.

"Oh, that's good." Doctor Bai also sat next to them, and then sighed, "This Uncle Yongyan is also a miserable life, his son just died a few years ago, and his wife passed away again this year. ”

has a son, that is, Zhou Shanshan's uncle, why has he never heard her say it, so Mu Nan casually asked: "His son should be very young, why did he die?" ”

"Well, that's a long story." Dr. Bai also took a sip of water, "It was the year when I first came to this clinic as a doctor, and one day Uncle Yongyan hurriedly came to the clinic to find me to help his son see a doctor. I could sense from his anxious expression that the condition must be very serious, so I picked up the medicine box and rushed to his house.

"But when I arrived, his son was no longer dead, with symptoms such as organ failure and respiratory distress, which looked like poisoning and could die at any time, and there was no need to rescue him.

"I wanted to give him an injection to comfort the two old men, but I just prepared the potion, and before I could get it, the patient died.

"These two old people are really miserable, they have never had children in their early years, they only adopted a daughter, and they only had this only son in their 40s, but it happened that the only son had meningitis again, and his intelligence was seriously impaired, like an idiot. It is estimated that the two old men did not take good care of him, so that he accidentally ingested pesticides. I was afraid that the two old men would blame themselves and be sad, so I never said that they died of poisoning, but only said that they had relapsed from old diseases. ”

Dr. Bai sighed as he spoke.

Mu Nan asked, "What kind of pesticide is that?" ”

"Paraquat, paraquat poisoning is incurableβ€”"

"Paraquat?!" The two of them almost spoke in unison, interrupting Dr. Bai's words.

He was taken aback by the reaction of the two, "Yes, paraquat!" What's wrong? ”

The two looked at each other for a moment, and then Mu Nan said, "It's nothing, we know this paraquat is too powerful." ”

At this time, another group of villagers who were going to do nucleic acid testing came again, and their conversation was interrupted and they went back to the intense anti-epidemic work.

Finally, the nucleic acid testing of the whole village was completed, and the two men were too tired to do it, and they just wanted to go back to the old man's house in Yongyan to rest. At this time, a villager hurriedly came and shouted at the office building of the village committee: "Secretary Zhu, it's time for the people guarding the village entrance to change shifts, what about the people?" ”

The branch secretary has not returned from patrolling outside, and it happened suddenly, it is estimated that he has not arranged a shift change, and Mu Nan, who has walked to the gate of the village committee, looked at Ruan Xianchao, and after seeing him nodding his head slightly, she shouted to the villager: "Here, go, let's guard the entrance of the village together!" ”

Anyway, everyone was wearing protective clothing, and at night, everyone didn't know who was who, so the villager immediately took them to the entrance of the village and took over the duties of guarding the entrance of the village.

A barricade was temporarily placed at the entrance of the village, and a high-power LED bulb was picked up with a bamboo pole next to it, illuminating the section of the cement road at the entrance of the village and the trees and weeds next to it. She suddenly felt that the darkness beyond the gray was pressing down on her, pressing her chest so hard that her breathing hurt.

Just now, she tried to keep herself busy, using busyness to empty her mind, but now that she was quiet, the pain returned to her heart.

How can it not hurt?

At 10 o'clock this morning, Jian Zheng was about to be executed.

And she is locked down here, unable to do anything, not even to see him for the last time. She thought about it, and her feelings about him became more and more blurred, the last time she saw him, it seemed like a previous life, and if she wanted to see him again, she could only be in the next life.

She tried hard not to think about these things, but they kept popping up in her mind unconsciously.

Mu Nan has been very stubborn since he was a child, and he has almost never shed tears, but the tears that have accumulated for so many years have been used all during this time, and now, as long as she is quiet, the tears will not be quiet, and they will come out one by one.

Ruan Xianchao wanted to comfort her, but he didn't know how to comfort her, he just sat quietly beside her, perhaps, companionship is the best comfort.

The villager also noticed their emotions, and at the same time found that they were not from the village, so he came over to talk to them, "Hello, my name is Zhu Wenbing." What do you call you, which unit sent you? ”

Ruan Xianchao stood up and said to him: "My name is Ruan Xianchao, and she is a good man. We weren't sent by any unit, yesterday afternoon, we came to Zhu Yongyan's old man's house to do some errands, and we just happened to encounter the lockdown, since we couldn't leave, we simply came over as volunteers. ”

Zhu Wenbing looked at him for a moment, revealing an evil smile full of deep meaning.

This smile made Ruan Xianchao's heart furious, he also looked down at himself, there seemed to be no problem, and then looked at Zhu Wenbing, "Is there any problem?" ”

He looked at Ruan Xianchao, but he pouted in the direction of Mu Nan, lowered his voice and said, "You, what is the relationship between her and Zhou Shanshan?" ”

Such an abrupt question made Ruan Xianchao not know how to answer.

Mu Nan didn't pay attention to the conversation here, but when he suddenly heard the name "Zhou Shanshan", he immediately turned off the tearful switch, bounced up from the ground, and came between the two of them, saying, "Zhou Shanshan is my classmate, and it has nothing to do with him." ”

"In this way, you dare to lead him here!" Zhu Wenbing asked her very puzzled: "Don't you know what Zhou Shanshan is like?" ”

"I know!" Mu Nan thought for a moment, and then said, "Maybe I don't know, what's wrong?" ”

"Maybe you really don't know, anyway, all the women in our village will keep an eye on their men and boys, and they will not be allowed to approach Zhou Shanshan."

"I really don't know." As soon as he said this, Mu Nan suddenly keenly felt that there might be information she wanted to know, so he asked him: "Zhou Shanshan and I have only been classmates for more than a year, and that was when I was in junior high school, and it has been many years, and I really don't know what you said." It just so happens that there is time now, so you can tell us about Zhou Shanshan. ”

"That's it," Zhu Wenbing scratched his hair, "Okay, it's okay anyway, I'll tell you about it." ”

The three of them found a place to sit down on the side of the road, and then Zhu Wenbing told them some things about Zhou Shanshan.

Zhou Shanshan has always been the focus of public opinion in the village.

When she was a child, her parents went out to work, so they left her in this remote mountain village and raised her by her grandparents. This may also be an important factor in her strange temperament in the future.

The children in the village didn't play with her, and they all laughed at her for being an orphan without a father.

Her only childhood playmate was her almost idiot uncle, who was older than her and less intelligent.

Her uncle was also the target of those children's teasing. He had a very stout thing that was unusually human, and a bunch of half-grown children in the village used to tease him, telling him to play with it in front of everyone, and even marked it out.

But Zhou Shanshan is much more precocious than children of the same age, she grew into a big girl at the age of eleven or twelve, I don't know when she started, she had that affair with her idiot uncle. Her exaggerated cry could be heard hundreds of meters away through the completely unsoundproofed earthen house in this small mountain village, which was particularly quiet at night.

At the beginning, Yongyan and his wife felt too embarrassed, and they beat and scolded these two people, but they couldn't control them.

Later, when Zhou Shanshan was in junior high school, she dropped out of school because she had such a problem with her teacher.

When she came back from school, she was even more unscrupulous, hiding in her room to do that day and night, and the half-grown children in the village often looked at the broken windows. And this week Shanshan, too, is a strange thing in a strange way, she knows that someone is watching outside, not only does she not restrain herself, but she writhes and screams more exaggeratedly.

At that time, the women in the village were very nervous, and they looked at their men and their already sensible sons very closely, for fear of having something to do with her.

In this way, she lived a ridiculous life in the village for a few years, and then went out to work.

I heard those who often peeked that she went out to work because her idiot uncle was played bad by her, so she went out.

As soon as she went out, she worked in the company that her teacher opened back then, and as soon as she arrived at the company, she got along with her boss.

However, she gave birth to a child less than half a year after she went out, and everyone in the village knew that the child must be her idiot uncle.

Although she went out to work, her idiot uncle looked for her everywhere, and once found her hundreds of miles away, went to her company and found her, and said in front of all her colleagues that he wanted to do that with her.

This time it really her off, and she had to send her idiot uncle back herself. However, it didn't take long for the poor idiot to relapse and die from an old illness.

When Zhu Wenbing was talking about this, his eyebrows fluttered, especially when he talked about those details, it was extremely detailed, as if he had seen it with his own eyes. Of course, it is estimated that he was one of those half-grown children at that time, so the things he talked about may have really been seen with his own eyes.

Mu Nan, as an untrained big girl, heard that her face was red, and Ruan Xianchao wanted to tell him to stop and stop talking several times. But Mu Nan stopped it with his eyes, because, about any information about Zhou Shanshan, Mu Nan wanted to know, perhaps, these were useful for that case.
