Chapter Seventy-Nine: Blindness
Yu Su felt that the back of her head hurt a little, she subconsciously touched the painful place, only to feel that the back of her head was wet, she put the hand that touched her head under her nose and smelled it, and a strong smell of blood came to her face.
She concluded: she had fallen on her head.
Xu is head was hit, causing Yu Su's memory of the fall to be a little blurred, she sat in place and recalled for a long time, and finally remembered that she came up the mountain today to collect medicine for her mother.
Yu's father died early, leaving only their mother and daughter to rely on each other, and Yu's mother's health has been not good, she relies on medicine on weekdays, and silver money is naturally indispensable to buy medicine, but Yu's mother and daughter's life is not rich, all the financial resources are to rely on the mother and daughter to do some embroidery, and there are still problems with eating, let alone buying medicine, always buying this time, and I can't afford it next time.
Seeing her mother's body weakening day by day, this made Yu Su sad, and in the end, the doctor in the hospital saw that she was pitiful, taught her how to identify herbs, and asked her to go up the mountain to pick them herself.
Fortunately, Yu Yu is also quite talented in this area, and he learned very quickly, and after he finished learning, he began to go up the mountain to collect medicine by himself, which not only solved his mother's medication problem, but sometimes even picked more and sold them to the medicine shop, which reduced some of the burden for the family.
Yesterday, I found that there were not many medicinal materials left, so Yu Su came to the mountain early this morning to collect medicine.
Originally, Yu Yu was ready to go back when the medicinal materials were almost collected, but she didn't want her to find a Ganoderma lucidum on the edge of the cliff, even people who don't understand medicinal materials know the preciousness of Ganoderma lucidum, if you can pick this Ganoderma lucidum, then her mother's medicinal materials this year don't have to worry, maybe she can change to a better house and improve the living environment at home.
Thinking of this, Yu Su's face couldn't help but bring a hint of joy.
She tied one end of the hemp rope around her waist, and the other end to the trunk of a tree not far away, and she pulled the hemp rope little by little down the cliff.
Just as her hand was about to touch the Lingzhi, the hemp rope suddenly broke, and she fell straight down the cliff.
Thinking about what happened, Yu Su couldn't help but smile bitterly, he only suffered a little head injury when he fell down so high, which can be regarded as his great blessing. It's just that it's night now, and my mother must be worried about her if she hasn't been back for so long.
Yu Yu patted the dust on her body, and reluctantly stood up, her head was still a little dizzy when she first got up, she subconsciously wanted to find something to lean on around her, but found that it was pitch black all around, and she couldn't see her fingers.
She muttered, "The night in this mountain is too dark, why can't you see me going back?"
But she immediately realized that something was wrong.
When she looked up at the sky, she couldn't see a single light, no moon, no stars.
It's weird, it's cloudy today, but it's too dark, I can't see anything. Normally, even if it's cloudy, it's not so dark, and even in the mountains and forests, you should be able to see the vague shadows of the trees, but today you can't see anything.
Yu Su had a huge panic in his heart.
She stumbled forward despite the darkness around her, she couldn't see the way, let alone the direction, like a shipwrecked victim, wandering in the endless sea, looking for a piece of driftwood to hold onto.
With a "bang", Yu Su's forehead hit a tree heavily in a panic, and the injury on the back of her head made her feel dizzy, and this forehead injury again was tantamount to making things worse for Yu Su.
But she didn't have time to care about the wound on her forehead, and a terrifying guess came to her mindโ
Maybe it wasn't that the stars and moon were covered by dark clouds, or that the night in the mountains and forests was too dark, but her own eyes couldn't see.
Yu Yu only felt a chill from the soles of her feet to her head, her eyes were out of sight, and there was no difference between her and breaking her life, whether it was making embroidery or going up the mountain to collect medicine, it was inseparable from her eyes, and not seeing meant that she couldn't make money.
Her mother is so sick and weak, she can't take care of herself, and she has become blind, what kind of life will become, Yu Su can't even think about it.
And the biggest question now is not how to live when she returns, but how she will get out of the mountain without seeing it.
She can rely on groping, but she really can't determine the direction, now the only thing she can do is to keep moving forward, as long as she can meet someone, she will be saved, she can use the only money left on her body to send her home.
Suddenly becoming blind made Yu Su very unaccustomed, even if she took every step extra carefully, she still inevitably tripped over rocks or dead branches, fell several times, and her hands were blistered in the continuous temptation and groping, and she was covered in injuries after a while.
"Gollum...... Grunt...... "Yu Su's stomach screamed, she hadn't eaten since she went out in the morning, and now she was really hungry, but how was she going to eat now?"
Don't think about the game, Yu Yu's current prayer is not to meet the beast, otherwise she may die here. Don't dream of wild fruits that are too high, and don't even think about climbing trees for blind people. If you think about it, you can only find some low-growing fruits to satisfy your stomach.
But finding fruits is also very particular, because after all, not all fruits are edible, if you accidentally pick poisonous fruits, then her little life is also not guaranteed, so it is particularly important for Yu Yu's hands to find out whether these wild fruits are edible or not.
However, the wild fruits in the mountains and forests are not everywhere, and Yu Yu groped for a long time and found nothing. In the end, it was spring, and she found wild bamboo shoots, which allowed her to be satisfied.
Yu Su cried as she stuffed the bamboo shoots into her mouth, she had to persevere, as long as she could go back, there would definitely be a way. After studying with the doctor for a while, she also has a certain amount of medical knowledge, and she knows that the reason why she can't see with her eyes is because of an injury to the back of her head, and she may not be cured when she goes back to the doctor to see if it can't be cured.
So, she must persevere.
Afraid that she would not be able to find food in the future, she plucked some tender bamboo shoots and put them in the placket of her clothes as a reserve of food.
Because he can't see, there is no way to distinguish between day and night, and there is no way to calculate the time, Yu Yu doesn't know how long he has been walking, anyway, when he is hungry, he looks for wild fruits in the mountains and forests, and when he is sleepy, he directly uses the ground as a bed.
Slowly, she became accustomed to the fact that her eyes were no longer visible, and she found that her senses became more sensitive after she became blind.
