Chapter 50: Chronicle of the Sixties 10

Feng Wu had already opened the medicine box, found the syringe and needle, and took out a small bottle of penicillin powder injection and saline solution.

The male doctor did not waste any time and started treatment quickly.

Gao Nanting, who was isolated from the crowd, clenched his fists tightly and stared at the motionless person on the ground.

Sun Qi on the side whispered to comfort him, "Don't worry too much. The doctor is here, and the old man will be fine. Don't forget that you are a prisoner now, don't be impulsive."

Gao Nanting's teeth were chattering, and he closed his eyes tightly to suppress the worry and anxiety in his eyes. His gaze fell on the girl who was sorting the medicine box at the side, and his eyes were obscure and indescribable.

If it were a different time or a different occasion, he would definitely appear in front of her with the best attitude and pursue her passionately.

While Fengwu was paying attention to the matter at hand, he scanned the crowd with his spiritual sense and accidentally heard the conversation between two men.

Unexpectedly, this patient would be her husband's relative, and her eyes fell on the old man's gray face again.

The doctor had finished giving the patient the injection when a soldier who looked like a leader came in from outside.

"Hello, doctor. I'm Huang Lianyun, the person in charge of this prisoner escort. How is this prisoner's condition? Is it serious?"

The doctor took off his gloves and mask and said in a businesslike manner, "Hello, Comrade Huang. The patient is somewhat contagious. To avoid infection, it is best to isolate him from other people."

"Is isolation necessary? You see, there aren't any extra carriages here to isolate the patient. Doctor, can you think of a solution?"

The male doctor frowned and thought for a moment, then slowly said, "If that doesn't work, we can just find a piece of cloth to create a space. But this carriage still needs a window for ventilation."

Huang Lianyun breathed a sigh of relief. This was the best thing to do. It wasn't difficult to open a vent to let in air. "Okay, I'll have two soldiers come over to arrange it later. Thank you for your hard work, doctor."

When the prisoners in carriage No. 200 heard that the disease was contagious, they were so scared that they stepped back several meters and looked at the patients with uneasy expressions.

Huang Lianyun was worried that the prisoners might cause trouble, so he immediately shouted, "The doctor has already treated the patient, and we will also isolate the patient. There is no need to panic."

"This disease is contagious, why aren't we panicking?" Some prisoners started to murmur. This disease is contagious, and it sounds like a very serious disease, so they are naturally afraid.

"That's right! How could I be so unlucky to have to share a carriage with a consumptive idiot?"

"Comrade PLA, he's just an old man. I don't think he'll live long. We might as well just leave him here. We can't let a whole carload of us get hurt because of one man."

"Who said it wasn't true? I'm still waiting to go out and see my family. I can't die here for no apparent reason!"

When Gao Nanting heard what these prisoners said, he almost exploded. He just looked coldly at the few people who suggested throwing his grandfather out of the car.

Panic spread among the prisoners, and nearly two hundred of them shouted that they wanted to throw the person out of the car.

Seeing that the prisoners were very angry, Huang Lianyun suppressed them directly and looked at the doctor helplessly. The doctor also looked indifferent. He was only responsible for treating the patients, and calming their emotions was not within his job scope.

Feng Wu's voice, like the sound of nature, rang out, "Don't worry, everyone. The patient has been isolated, and the carriage has been disinfected. This disease is not contagious. Doctor, am I correct?"

The male doctor's eyes were sharp. When they met, he saw the calmness in Feng Wu's eyes and smiled kindly. "Of course, if we do a good job of isolation and disinfection, it's not easy to spread the disease."

After hearing what the doctor said, the prisoner, who was initially agitated, calmed down and did not dare to continue making trouble.

Feng Wu's eyes were soft and a warm smile was on her face. "Comrade PLA, I will apply to stay and look after the patient. This is my duty as a nurse, and it will also allow everyone to rest assured."

Huang Lianyun's face immediately showed surprise. It was great that a nurse was willing to take care of the patients. His superiors had repeatedly instructed that the safe arrival of these prisoners at the labor camp must be ensured. He took on this difficult task under pressure and did not ask for any credit. As long as he could send the people to the Wutz Farm safely, he would be free.

"Then I'll trouble you, nurse. The train will be leaving soon. My people will quickly help you isolate a small compartment so that you can take care of the prisoner."

…

The train whistle sounded and the door of carriage number eight closed tightly.

Feng Wu's luggage and bedding were temporarily moved to carriage No. 8. Most of the prisoners in the carriage were still very respectful to the medical staff.

Feng Wu and the patients who had not yet woken up were separated by a piece of military green canvas. For fear of being infected, everyone stayed in their own area.

Feng Wu frowned after scanning the old man's internal organs with his spiritual sense. There was a gray aura in the old man's lungs. If he didn't receive proper treatment and maintenance, he probably wouldn't live long.

Considering that this person was a relative of that man, Feng Wu took out a big-bellied jade bottle from his messenger bag and poured out a dark brown pill with gold patterns.

The pink ball, who had been staying in the system space and reading novels, curled its lips in envy, because the host had secretly cheated behind its back.

But it dare not have any opinion!

The train started to move slowly, and the patient slowly opened his eyes. The old man looked at the iron carriage above his head with a confused look, raised his skinny hand and touched his chest. Feeling that his heart was still beating well, he came to his senses and looked up to find Feng Wu sitting in the corner.

"Old comrade, please lie down and don't move. You were unconscious earlier, and the doctor has come to treat you. Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"

When Zhong Hansong opened his eyes, he saw a pretty little girl talking to him kindly. He was still a little stunned. After hearing the whole story, he found out that he had fainted from lack of breath.

The old man was thin and haggard, with some deep wrinkles on his neck and a few brown age spots on his cheeks. He shook his head when he heard this, feeling a rare peace in his internal organs. A kind smile appeared on his resolute face. "Comrade Nurse, I feel much better now. Thank you for taking care of me, an old man."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhong Hansong felt embarrassed and his stomach started to rumble non-stop.

I don’t know which prisoner got the steamed bun and half a bowl of soybean soup that were distributed earlier. The breakfast meal was barely enough to fill their stomachs.

Feng Wu gently lifted the curtain and took a look inside the carriage. He moved inward and quietly took out two military water bottles from his backpack and a boiled egg from his pocket.

These foods were prepared by Aunt Mei earlier.

Zhong Hansong watched the little girl taking things out of her bag like magic. Fortunately, he was old and knowledgeable, so he didn't shout out and alarm others.

Feng Wu opened one of the older kettles and made a drinking gesture towards the person.

Zhong Hansong wanted to refuse, but Feng Wu immediately raised his finger and pointed outside the curtain.

No matter how dumb Zhong Hansong was, he knew that the carriage was full of prisoners who were listening attentively. The little girl's eyes were clear, and she didn't look down on him at all because of his identity as a prisoner. Her dry lips moved, and with trembling hands she took the water bottle that the little girl insisted on giving her.

The physical discomfort was also relieved a lot because of the little girl's warm gesture.
