Ai Taoyu was talking about the acupuncture she gave herself on the way.
It was very busy before departure. After getting on the train, Mu Huaixi found that she had her period. After thinking about it, she gave herself a few injections and got rid of the period.
She didn't avoid people when she was giving the acupuncture, which scared Xiao Ai.
"You, you are too cruel to yourself," Ai Taoyu said at the time, but when she arrived at the place, she felt that Xiao Mu was really foresighted.
It's almost October, late at night, and it's still hot and humid here. Clothes you just changed into will soon be soaked with sweat. If you have your period and put on a thick menstrual belt, it will probably be soaked with sweat before it gets wet with menstrual blood.
Besides, everyone who has had their period knows that what they fear most is not winter, but the sticky summer days, when their stomachs ache, they feel hot and cold, and their whole body feels like they are having the fever.
"Besides, look at the dark circles under Li Ying's eyes just now. They must be very busy here!" Ai Taoyu lifted up her clothes and lay down on the camp bed next to her. "Come on, let's get started now!"
"You can't give me acupuncture now," Mu Huaixi said with a smile as he took out the clothes from the package and hung them in the closet. He also helped hang Ai Taoyu's clothes, then patted her on the head. "Have a good rest tonight, and give me acupuncture tomorrow."
"I'm tired after a long day, my hands are shaking." Mu Huaixi didn't say anything. She was indeed very tired now, not only physically, but also mentally exhausted from the long car ride and the unfamiliar climate.
Ai Taoyu cried out in pain. She was actually very tired. Her eyelids were drooping and she was about to fall asleep in the next second.
"Hurry up and wash up, otherwise you won't be comfortable sleeping." Li Ying carried a large basin of water and pushed the door with his shoulder into the house. Mu Huaixi hurried to take it, and Ai Taoyu also stood up.
The room was not big, and three beds and several stacked cabinets took up most of the space. The three of them standing in the room at the same time, with a large basin in the middle, made it even more cramped.
Li Ying retreated outside the house upon seeing this. "Hurry up and wash up. I'll be back soon."
"Wait a minute," Mu Huaixi said. Noticed that Li Ying had red bumps on her arms, neck, and face, he pulled out a sachet from his pocket and handed it to her. "Take this insect repellent sachet that I made myself. Don't stay out too long, we can wash it in ten minutes."
It's really unfair to let Li Ying wander around alone so late at night and endure mosquito bites.
Li Ying was overjoyed. She took the sachet and held it to her face, taking a big sniff. She coughed repeatedly from the choking, but her smile remained undimmed. "This definitely repels mosquitoes! You really saved my life!"
"Take your time to wash. I'll go check on the wounded. There's no rush!" Li Ying gave them a new piece of soap and closed the door with a smile.
It was too late, so the two of them scooped water with the army green basin they were given, wiped themselves briefly in the dark, changed into clean clothes, and finally got rid of the stickiness.
"That's great, you can still wash your hair," Ai Taoyu murmured enviously when she saw her wash her hair in just a few strokes. She used to think that Mu Huaixi's hair was cut too short, but now it seems that Xiao Mu is the truth!
"I want to have my hair cut tomorrow too! And I want to get an acupuncture injection!" Ai Taoyu made a great wish, then fell on the bed and fell asleep in less than five seconds.
Mu Huaixi smiled and shook her head. Her hair had been specially cut short and thinned. She applied a thin layer of soap and rinsed it with water to wash it. It was also easy to dry. She just wiped it left and right with the towel and it was almost half dry.
In the past, Mu Huaixi had to use two towels just to absorb the water from her long hair. Now it was a novel experience to feel so refreshed. She twisted the towel and hung it on the string.
The towel was swinging on the rope. Mu Huaixi was a little dazed, feeling that this scene was familiar. It was not until she took the basin out and poured it out, and sprinkled a circle of insect repellent powder beside the bamboo building, and lay on the camp bed with her hair almost dry, that she remembered that her actions were exactly the same as when Ying Mingcheng usually wiped his hair!
She used to say that Ying Mingcheng wiped hair like polishing shoes. Now that she tried it herself, she realized that by wrapping her short hair with the towel and pulling it back and forth, and then pulling the two ends of the towel and shaking it like a duster, she could shake off most of the water droplets on her hair.
"I don't know how he is doing now." Mu Huaixi only thought about Ying Mingcheng for ten seconds and then fell into a deep sleep. She was really too sleepy.
The dream was noisy and chaotic. She had no idea where she was. The shadows of people and trees were as heavy as each other, and the sky was collapsing like a mountain, and with a thud the earth was shaking.
"ah!!"
Ai Taoyu's screams woke her up. Mu Huaixi sat up, holding her chest. Dreams and reality were intertwined. For a moment, she thought she was still in a dream, otherwise why was the bamboo building shaking and there were huge explosions outside the window.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid," Li Ying jumped up from the bed and patted Ai Taoyu's back to help her calm down. "Don't be afraid, it sounds scary, but it's actually far away from us."
“This, this is…”
Seeing that Ai Taoyu's complexion had improved, Li Ying turned around and brought her a glass of water. "It's cold, drink slowly."
Mu Huaixi also woke up completely, but her heart was still beating wildly. She rubbed her palms for a while and forced herself to cheer up. She had never been so aware that she was now on the front line, the place closest to the war!
"boom!!"
The bombing continued, and suddenly no one spoke in the room. The silence made the noise coming from far away even more deafening.
Mu Huaixi checked her watch. It wasn't even seven o'clock yet, but it was already bright outside the window. She gradually got used to the roaring noise, and her erratic heartbeat returned to normal. After a moment's hesitation, she asked Li Ying, "What's going on out there?"
"Hehe, it's actually a good thing. Take out the newly arrived weapons and try them out." Li Ying actually didn't understand what could make such a roar, but this bombing did not come from the opposite side, but from our side.
At this moment, the two of them felt relieved. The firepower was mine, so the advantage naturally also belonged to me.
Since the three of them were awake, they went out together to wash up. Along the way, Li Ying told them about the general arrangements here.
Originally, there was only one doctor and one nurse here, and the fighting wasn't intense. It was just that the terrain was so strange that it needed to be guarded. But with the arrival of new weapons a while ago, we switched from defense to advancement. But even with firepower, injuries were inevitable during the advance, so we requested more manpower, and unexpectedly, it was Mu Huaixi and the others who showed up.
"Now there are three men and three women, which is pretty good. But I heard that Dr. Luo is leaving soon, and I don't know how to arrange it later."
Dr. Luo is the 40-year-old man we met last night. He is now the person in charge here. The young man who disliked them because they were women is named Qin Wenlong. He is also a doctor and arrived only three days earlier than Mu Huaixi and the others.
