Chapter 227 Chapter 227 Heavy Fog
The number of deaths each day is growing exponentially. The internet is filled with countless negative and hopeless news, and voices pleading for medicine are everywhere.
This terrible disaster turned into a dark cloud hanging over everyone's heart, and no one could stay out of it.
The family of wishers that He Junxia belongs to is no exception.
"what to do?"
"Kangping, my brother just called and said my mom, dad, and nephew are all sick. My mom is coughing up blood."
Zhang Shuhui's hand holding the phone was shaking, and she was so panicked that she could hardly think.
“What should I do?”
She was going crazy with anxiety.
Especially, my mind kept uncontrollably recalling the death information I had seen recently on the Internet.
Zong Kangping grabbed her hand and said, "Calm down for a moment. Has your brother called for help?"
"I did, but several hospitals stopped accepting new patients, saying they were overcrowded and couldn't accommodate them."
Zhang Shuhui burst into tears.
Even though she is nearly 30 years old and is already a mother of two children, she still cannot imagine the day when she loses her parents.
Zong Kangping gently patted his wife's back, and when she calmed down a little, he asked, "Does your brother have any medicine?"
Zhang Shuhui shook her head: "I've finished eating." Otherwise she wouldn't be so anxious.
Zong Kangping thought for a moment and said, "We have some anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and fever-reducing medicine at home that we can send to your parents."
Their family has a lot of medicine in stock, most of which his father bought at the pharmacy when the white fog first appeared.
Although they fell ill and needed to take medicine later, they recovered quickly and the medicine was left in the medicine box and never touched.
etc?
Getting well quickly?!
Zong Kangping thought of his miraculous experience of curing illnesses and hesitated whether to invite his father-in-law and mother-in-law to stay at his home for a few days.
If the disease is cured, it will definitely be a good thing and everyone will be happy; but if it is not cured and something goes wrong, you may even be hated and blamed by your brother-in-law.
After all, their treatment methods sound very unreliable. If he hadn't experienced it himself, he wouldn't believe it if someone else told him.
Zong Kangping hesitated for a long time, but finally gave the decision to Zhang Shuhui: "Wife, do you think we should bring your parents and nephew over to stay with us for a few days?"
Zhang Shuhui was stunned.
Then she realized what was going on and nodded, "Okay, I'll go ask Dad for his opinion first."
He Junxia did not agree directly.
He looked at the anxious woman and sighed, "Shuhui, I have no objection to my in-laws coming to treat the illness, but you can't use the room as a lifeline."
"It's already hard for my parents-in-law to be sick, and after all this trouble, I find that there's no effect. Isn't that harmful?"
"And they might not believe you, thinking you're playing a trick on them."
Zhang Shuhui slowly calmed down, her expression thoughtful, and it was obvious that she had listened to his words.
He Junxia waited for a moment and then said, "How about this, don't tell them that the room can be used for treatment. Just say that you have medicine at home and bring them in to take care of them for a while."
"Okay, I understand. Thanks, Dad."
Zhang Shuhui took out her cell phone and called her brother and sister-in-law to explain the situation. After a conversation, the bitterness on her face lessened a little and she felt more relaxed.
She raised her head and smiled, "My brother said to call the emergency number and send my parents over first. My nephew's condition is not very serious, so he won't come."
Zong Kangping held his wife's hand and said, "Well, don't worry, my father-in-law and mother-in-law will be fine."
He Junxia also felt relieved.
He didn't let Zhang Shuhui tell her parents that the "magic room" could cure diseases, not because he was unsure of the "magic room's" healing effects.
After all, no one knows the origin of the "magic room" better than him, and with Zong Kangping and Zhang Shuhui as examples, the therapeutic effects are excellent.
The problem is that He Junxia cannot guarantee that Zhang Shuhui's parents, brother and sister-in-law will not tell others the news after they find out that it is true.
There is no impenetrable wall in the world, and no secret that lasts forever, unless all those who know the secret keep it in their stomachs.
But Zhang Shuhui's brother has good brothers and good friends, and her sister-in-law also has her own parents and relatives, and her parents and relatives have their own relatives and friends.
When faced with a life-or-death crisis, can they keep their mouths and hearts shut and not tell their loved ones after learning that there is a place that can easily cure mushroom lung?
99.9% of people can't do it.
One person tells ten, ten people tell a hundred, a hundred people tell a thousand...
Once the door is opened, the news will soon spread throughout the city and come into the sight of certain interested people.
People facing life-or-death crises will go crazy and do everything they can to save their lives, even if it's just a possibility.
The powerful are even crazier.
Not only would they not be able to keep their house, but the fact that he hurriedly bought a large amount of daily necessities on the first day of the fog and suddenly learned the Five Animal Exercises would all be dug out.
The consequences are unimaginable.
He Junxia didn't want to experience the interrogation methods of the alien government yet. It wasn't like he was tired of living.
…
The rescue team worked very efficiently.
That afternoon, Zhang Shuhui's parents were taken to the downstairs of the community in a closed black special car.
"Dad, Mom, come up quickly. I'm at the door. I'll open it as soon as you get here."
Zhang Shuhui was waiting anxiously at the door, while He Junxia and Zong Kangping each held a sharp knife in their hands, ready to strike.
Don't get me wrong, this is not a Hongmen Banquet, it is to prevent the tentacle monster from suddenly attacking.
"Ahem, Huihui, cough, open the door."
Zhang Shuhui, upon hearing the sound, immediately opened the door and pulled her parents in. She was so nervous that she exerted too much force and almost fell down.
Fortunately, He Junxia reacted in time and gave him a hand.
"Bang!"
Zong Kangping quickly closed the door, and at the same time, the roar of a car engine was heard downstairs, and then everything quickly returned to silence.
Zong Kangping patted his chest and said, "I was scared to death."
Zhang Shuhui held her parents' hands and said, "Dad, Mom, how are you feeling now? Do you want to go to your room and rest for a while?"
Zhang Shuhui's mother Miao Xun was gasping for breath, her breathing so heavy that it almost drowned out the sound of the air purifier.
She slowly sat down on the sofa: "Let me sit for a while, cough cough cough, do you have any paper?"
Zhang Shuhui quickly pulled out several sheets of paper from the coffee table and handed them over, and soon there was a pool of scarlet blood on the paper.
Zhang Shuhui's eyes instantly turned red.
Zong Kangping brought two cups of warm water and the medicine he had prepared long ago: "Dad, Mom, take the medicine first, then go to sleep. This illness will heal soon."
Zhang Shuhui's father Zhang Jian smiled, but that smile seemed to be soaked in bitterness, without a trace of joy or happiness.
"Father-in-law, Kangping, I'm really sorry to trouble you this time."
Zong Kangping: "Dad, what are you talking about? It's troublesome or not. We are all looking forward to you and mom coming."
Father Zhang took the warm water and medicine and handed it to Mother Zhang first: "Old woman, take the medicine quickly."
After taking the medicine, the two old people sat on the sofa and rested for a long time, but their mental state did not improve.
This is also normal.
If anti-inflammatory and antibacterial drugs worked so quickly, hospitals wouldn't be so overwhelmed with patients, and there wouldn't be a drug panic across the country.
Zhang Shuhui advised: "Dad, Mom, go to your room and sleep. I'll call you after dinner is ready."
Zhang's father and mother nodded.
After tossing and turning for so long and feeling unwell, they were really exhausted.
Zong Kangping and Zhang Shuhui helped the two elderly people to their rooms to rest. After they left, He Junxia took out alcohol spray to disinfect the living room and began to carefully check every corner of the living room, bathroom, and kitchen.
Mushrooms don't just grow on tree bark; small white mushrooms are also common in moist areas of the house. So they do a thorough cleaning every day to make sure not a single one has escaped.
…
5 p.m.
The aroma of food filled the kitchen and living room.
He Junxia sent the separate meals to the children's room. For safety reasons, they did not intend to let Zhang's father and mother come into contact with the two children.
Fortunately, the "magic room" is indeed effective.
When Mr. and Mrs. Zhang woke up, they were surprised to find that they felt much better and the frequency of their coughing had decreased.
Miao Xun asked curiously, "Kangping, what medicine did you give us that's so effective?"
Zong Kangping laughed and said, "It's amoxicillin."
Father Zhang: "That's strange. We also take amoxicillin at home. Could it be fake medicine?"
Mother Zhang said angrily, "When the fog clears, I will go to the pharmacy to ask for an explanation."
"Mom, you can't say that." Zhang Shuhui quickly advised: "You were full when you ate the fifth bun. You can't say that the first four buns were useless."
Zhang's mother was appeased, but she still said angrily, "I won't go to that store to buy medicine anymore."
He Junxia touched his nose and said sorry in his heart to the unlucky pharmacy that took the blame.
However, all kinds of antibacterial and anti-inflammatory drugs are out of stock now, and even Chinese patent medicines are in short supply. Pharmacies are the dominant force in the trading market.
Zhang's mother said that she would not go to that pharmacy to buy medicine in the future, and it would not have any impact on the pharmacy's business.
