Chapter 27 Treating Wounds and Stabilizing Water Sources
After returning to the farm, Nanxing began to clear out the elderly room.
But there weren't many things originally, just a bed and cabinets.
The bed was a wooden bed and the cabinet was also made of wood. Nanxing temporarily moved them all to the living room.
When I find an axe or something, I can chop them up and use them to reinforce the house.
All the hundreds of kilograms of collected soil were dumped into the room, reaching a thickness of more than ten centimeters.
Nanxing dragged his aching body and cleared a walkway in the middle of the mud.
Then she threw herself on the sofa. She was tired and hungry, and felt like she was not in control of herself.
My physical strength is still too poor.
The sun was setting in the west. Nanxing lit the fire barrel and lantern in the living room. She was going to cook dinner.
After adding a little more water into the water purifier, Nanxing turned on the flashlight and shone it on the water in the bottle below. It was quite clear.
It is ready to use.
Boil the water in a small pot, and Nanxing cools it down manually by pouring it back and forth between two containers. Soon the temperature drops and becomes warm water.
Mix flour with water and let it ferment naturally.
Nanxing specially mixed a little more dough to heat up and eat tomorrow morning.
There was not much food and water in Selena and the others' space. They had big appetites and basically ate up all the food they got. Alejo and Demar had to go deep into the woods to hunt.
There was only some stale, slightly smelly meat left in the space.
We don’t plan to waste these Arisaema confusa. Although they cannot be eaten, it doesn’t mean they have no other uses.
Mix it with rotten leaves, dig a hole and let it rot and ferment into fertilizer.
I don’t know if there is any animal manure in the forest, I hope I can pick up some.
She coughs every day, but her human manure will not be wasted. She piles it all together, adds some wood ash or something, and lets it slowly become fertilizer naturally.
Nanxing doesn't know much about fertilizers, so I can only figure it out bit by bit.
There is still a year left.
Lying peacefully on the sofa, there were actually some muscle patches in the medical kit, but the weird thing was that she was allergic to it.
I don’t know if it’s an allergy, but my skin becomes red and itchy after I tear it off.
So Nanxing can only massage herself with activating oil now to soothe the meridians throughout her body.
Otherwise tomorrow will be terrible.
After lying down for a while, Nanxing got up and started to treat the wound on his hand again.
After working for an entire afternoon, the injury on my hand seemed to be getting worse.
Tearing off the bandage on his hand, Nanxing couldn't help but cry out in pain softly, making a hissing sound.
My hands are already blurry.
She hadn't expected it to get this bad, the price of lacking some common sense.
After cleaning the wound again and applying medicine, Nanxing remembered to put on some dressing and then bandage it. The previous injury was not that serious, so it was not used. He just used the bandage to prevent infection.
Nanxing sighed, ate a piece of chocolate to fill his stomach, went to the balcony to take a look, and watered some plants.
The dough is almost fermented.
The fermented dough is pinched into small balls and stuck in the pan. No oil or yeast is used, but it tastes pretty good.
Just this one meal used up about half of the flour.
Nanxing didn't have much food left.
Must go out exploring tomorrow.
Her targets were the Headwind Canning Plant and the Eagle's Nest Quarry.
The main reason for going to Eagle's Nest Quarry was to reinforce the house and farm. She only had a hammer, but no tools or materials such as nails and axes.
So, I plan to try my luck in these two places first.
Even if these two places have been visited before, based on Selena and the others' personalities, they probably wouldn't take any nails.
Nanxing was eating while thinking about his next plan.
After dinner, Nanxing tidied up the downstairs a little and went upstairs to change a diaper.
It's so miserable.
There are no sanitary napkins to change.
Before going to bed, she massaged her limbs and body with activating oil, as she had a tough battle to fight tomorrow.
…
Day 12 of the game.
Because there was no entertainment in the evening, Nanxing went to bed very early, before nine o'clock, so he got up early too.
When she got up, she glanced at the time. It was just after five in the morning, almost six.
It was dawn.
Nanxing pulled open a corner of the curtain and saw a familiar zombie.
There were thirteen of them in total, wandering around the farm.
Nanxing didn't rush to deal with them. She washed her face and brushed her teeth first, then ate the leftover cake from yesterday.
Then she picked up Tai Chi and Ba Duan Jin, which she had not practiced for a long time.
This is the only way she knows to keep fit.
After playing around slowly for two rounds, Nanxing opened the window, took out his compound bow, aimed at the nearby zombies, and shot them one by one.
She is becoming more and more skilled in dealing with zombies.
Go downstairs, come to the wall of boxes, climb up the wall of boxes, and lure the other zombies over.
Shoot, collect arrows, and loot.
The zombies gave her a little surprise today. Nanxing actually took out two vacuum-packed dried meat snacks from their pockets.
Finger-width piece of jerky.
Nanxing is still very satisfied.
Without resting, Nanxing went to the forest with a hoe, bow and arrow, and bucket.
She is going to collect water.
In the early morning, there was a thin layer of mist in the forest, full of water vapor.
This gave Nanxing a glimmer of anticipation. The large container she had specially used that day might give her a surprise.
"roar--"
The roar of zombies came from the forest, which made Nanxing alert.
Normally, zombies wouldn't make this kind of noise.
unless……
Nan Xing frowned, hoping that it was not what she thought.
She walked carefully towards the forest. She did not go to the water source immediately, but observed the surrounding area first.
There are no other creatures except zombies.
As Nanxing approached, two zombies came towards her.
It was the smell of her blood.
Without hesitation, Nanxing immediately drew his bow and arrow and shot a zombie first.
Then he picked up the hoe and rushed towards the zombies.
Nanxing swung the hoe, his face looking somewhat ferocious, and he hit the zombie's forehead fiercely with the hoe.
“Crack—”
It was the sound of bones breaking.
With a pia, the zombie fell to his knees on the ground. Nanxing hit him again and again until his head was smashed to pieces.
"Huh——" She wiped the sweat from her forehead.
So tired.
"How scary." She couldn't help but sigh. The zombies she encountered recently were getting more and more terrifying.
Grayish-white skin, sparse hair, flesh on the face and neck that was about to fall off, and wriggling bugs on the body.
Alas.
Nanxing didn't dare to think about it anymore, and quickly picked up the bucket to collect all the water in the pit.
Her expectations were met, and there was more than a liter of water in each hole.
The water vapor content in the forest is quite high. If she digs more holes, she will have a stable source of water in the future.
Nanxing happily took the bucket back to the farm and temporarily put the strange things in the forest behind her.
She was not very panicked. If there was any unusual movement, the animals would definitely be the first to notice it.
While she was getting water, the squirrel was still peeking out from the tree.
