Yu Xifeng's package contains medicine from before the natural disaster.
A whole pack of plasters, which can reduce inflammation and swelling, contains 25 pieces.
Take one dose every three days. If you use it sparingly, it can last for three months.
For people who live from hand to mouth, three months is a very long time.
The plasters that A Yue usually gets are all one by one.
A Yue reached out to take it.
Yu Xifeng pressed the plaster on the table and didn't move.
Ah Yue said, "Aren't you going to return my favor?"
"Your favor is not worth so much." Yu Xifeng said slowly, "Here are twenty-five."
Ah Yue became alert: "What do you want?"
Yu Xifeng opened his mouth loudly: "Help me get two identification cards for the urban area. Before I get them, provide us with accommodation for this period of time."
There is no identity check to enter the Northern Base.
You can come in as long as you pay for food.
But it is not enough to enter the city.
You can probably break in by hoarding goods and smashing them.
With food in hand, even if you want to pick the stars in the sky,
Whether it can be done or not is another matter, but someone will definitely do it.
What's more, they are two identification documents for entering the city.
But Yu Xifeng didn't want so many eyes to fall on him.
By then, it will be like the convoy outside.
He didn't even know how he died.
Ah Yue smiled and said, "Then I'm not greedy. You can take the extra plasters."
This means the price is not enough.
Yu Xifeng rummaged in his backpack and pulled out a can of peach cakes: "This is the deposit."
A Yue's eyes lit up.
After all, plasters can only relieve pain and cannot be eaten or worn, so many survivors would rather endure it.
A Yue couldn't bear to see his grandma suffer, so he was willing to exchange the food for this.
Peach pastry is different.
It is a serious high-calorie food and tastes good.
It is the best way to give the elderly a new taste of food.
Carry two pieces close to your body, they can save your life in an emergency.
"After the deal is done, I'll give you 40 yuan of compressed biscuits, which is 20 kilograms, plus 10 kilograms of rice."
A Yue's eyes lit up again and again.
She wanted to stretch it again, but then she heard Yu Xifeng say: "The market price is about 40 kilograms of sweet potatoes, mixed with corn on the cob and a variety of wild vegetables.
The price I give you is enough for 200 kilograms. If you can't do it, I'll find someone else."
Ah Yue took the peach cake and plaster and said, "Come on, come on, please come in."
Oh my god, rice.
Where can you find rice nowadays except in urban areas?
A Yue's family is relatively well off, so he can exchange some of the meat he hunted for.
But that meat, supporting all the household expenses of the two, was really not enough to cover the expenses.
A Yue couldn't bear to leave.
On weekdays, her and her grandmother’s staple food is mainly cornmeal and vegetable balls mixed with beans.
In this area, it is already the best life.
Ah Yue said: "This is my bed."
It was called a bed, but it was just a wooden board covered with hay.
This room at least has a roof over our heads.
Yu Xifeng and Zhang Qiu actually thought it was pretty good too.
The days are indeed made up of contrasts.
This red brick house has only two rooms in total, and the outside is where grandma runs her tailoring business.
It also houses the most expensive item in the house - a sewing machine.
The inner room was divided into two rooms by a curtain.
If the vacant room finds a suitable tenant, A Yue will rent it out to supplement the household income.
Grandma takes on some sewing work outside.
In addition to hunting, A Yue did a little bit of everything like scavenging, making fake certificates, and selling information.
The time when Yu Xifeng encountered a lynx in his previous life.
That lynx was chased away by A Yue.
It just so happened that this house had not been rented out, so A Yue let Yu Xifeng live in it.
Later, Yu Xifeng was infected with an epidemic disease.
The two separated.
That's how it is among the survivors.
Most of them are too busy to take care of themselves, so the affection is just so-so.
Yu Xifeng did not blame A Yue, the disease was contagious.
If it were her, she would do the same.
What's more, A Yue was accompanied by an elderly man.
If A Yue wasn't here, this old man would be eaten up until not even a bone was left.
Let’s keep things separate.
In the previous life, A Yue brought her back to the base and truly saved her.
Zhang Qiu felt a little embarrassed.
There were two people traveling together, and there were two beds in the RV, so everyone slept on their own.
When they were on the road, they needed to keep watch all night, so the two of them staggered their rest times.
Until now, we have never slept in the same bed.
The room is not big and there is only one bed.
Beds always carry some unnecessary images.
Zhang Qiu stood there, heat coming out of his ears.
Yu Xifeng fell on the bed first.
She hadn't slept all night and had been walking all day, so she was really tired.
Zhang Qiu looked left and right, then sat down cautiously next to the bed.
Yu Xifeng was lying on the bed.
The wooden planks were somewhat hard, and the hay on them looked familiar to her.
Before I closed my eyes, a ray of sunlight leaked in through the gap in the tiles above my head and hit the wall next to me.
Exactly the same as in the previous life.
She could even remember the lines on the beams above her head, some deep and some shallow, like a contour map.
In a familiar scene from the previous life.
Yu Xifeng felt a sense of relaxation.
The sense of security brought by familiarity made her feel relieved.
A Yue didn't say how friendly she was, but Yu Xifeng knew her and knew she wouldn't take the initiative to harm others.
This alone is much better than being on guard all the time on the road.
In his previous life, Yu Xifeng lay on this bed and rested for a whole week.
A deeper uneasiness took hold of her.
There was no custom of sharing food among the survivors.
At this time in his previous life, Yu Xifeng's leg was injured, and the dry food he had could only last him five days at most.
If you don't recover before your dry food runs out, you will die.
Yu Xifeng had a dream.
In her dream, she saw her wounds and the blood kept flowing out.
It didn’t hurt in the dream.
But she was desperate.
Every second was like waiting for death, and a sense of urgency filled her heart.
A Yue went in and out, just waiting to be carried out after his death.
The old lady would pour a glass of water for Yu Xifeng every day and place it beside her bed.
There's no use begging.
Can't get more for her.
Yu Xifeng just endured day by day.
God bless you.
On the fifth day, she was able to get out of bed.
Later, he partnered with A Yue and went out to scavenge together.
But in the dream, the badly injured leg did not heal.
Instead, it festered little by little and gradually lost consciousness.
Yu Xifeng was deeply immersed in this dream.
Sweat appeared on his forehead and even his breathing became rapid.
Seeing her like this, Zhang Qiu woke Yu Xifeng up.
Yu Xifeng opened his eyes and stared at Zhang Qiu for a long time.
I breathed a sigh of relief.
She was so close to death.
It turns out she was so scared.
