Chapter 222: Falling to the Ground and Diing



The teachers were old and could not run fast. Ji Yanmo, Su Cheng, the loyal dog assistant and the fox assistant each carried one and quickly returned home. Lu Xingtang also loudly asked everyone to put down the food and go back to take shelter from the rain first.

The grain they harvested this time was just behind their home, so they asked everyone to go home to avoid the rain.

The boiling water rain caught everyone off guard. Huge blisters formed on their bodies. The areas covered by their clothes were red and swollen, and everyone was grimacing in pain. Lu Xingtang took out medicinal herbs from the warehouse to make burn ointment and asked everyone to apply more of it so that they would get better sooner.

This boiling rain lasted for an hour straight. Thinking of the crops in the fields, he said, "Luckily, we've already harvested most of the crops. There's not much left, but this rain is like boiling water. I'm afraid we can't store them!"

Lu Xingtang said calmly: "If you can't store it, just put it in your stomach!" Don't worry about your stomach not being able to store it.

After the boiling rain stopped, Lu Xingtang immediately called everyone back to the fields to collect the unharvested grain. While collecting the grain, they discovered that some of it had been cooked by the boiling rain, and when they ate it, they could taste the original flavor of the grain.

They put this batch of grain outside to be baked or dried, otherwise it would really go bad.

"Tangtang, you still have a solution!" In fact, there were still ice cubes in the warehouse that they had stored during the extreme cold period, which could be used to freeze the scalded food. However, they were worried that the extreme heat would come at any time, so they did not dare to use the ice cubes easily.

After the grain was harvested, they planted another crop of vegetables to eat next spring.

Since they moved away from the Seoul base, there has not been a single survivor or biped in Hengqiao Mountain, but patrols are still carried out every day.

Thanks to everyone's efforts, 2106 passed and entered 2107, the ninth year of the apocalypse.

After the Chinese New Year, Lu Xingtang took Ji Yanmo to the top of Hengqiao Mountain. They stood on the top and looked out over the entire mountain. "Mo, Xie Zhenchuan will be born next year!"

Xie Zhenchuan said that he was born in the tenth year of the apocalypse. Now it is the ninth year of the apocalypse, and there is only one year left before his birth.

They have been staying in Hengqiao Mountain, and none of the teachers and classmates around them have the surname Xie. Although several of her classmates got married under their witness, they have been using contraception and no newborns have been born yet.

It is unlikely that Xie Zhenchuan was born near them.

"The Blue Star Heart Tree is becoming more and more luxuriant!" Ji Yanmo answered the question irrelevantly.

Lu Xingtang's slightly restless heart suddenly calmed down.

On the morning of March 8, Lu Xingtang woke up from a sweet dream and saw a bunch of bright wild flowers. Red, white, yellow, pink, different colors, but the fragrance was overwhelming. "My dear wife, happy Women's Day."

Lu Xingtang took the fragrant wildflower, smelled it, and smiled sweetly and happily at Ji Yanmo: "Thank you, I like it very much."

Lu Xingtang placed the bouquet of wild flowers in a large water cup and placed it on the table in the room.

There are quite a few glass bottles in the space, but they are not suitable to be taken out, so they can only be left like this.

On March 14, everyone went out to work early. At ten o'clock in the morning, the weather suddenly changed and it started to rain heavily. Everyone immediately packed up their things and went home in the heavy rain.

But they never expected that on the way home, the downpour turned into fist-sized hailstones, which hit them mercilessly, causing them to scream in pain and even causing several big bumps on their foreheads.

"Go home quickly." Lu Xingtang urged everyone while running: "Hurry up, the hail is too big, if you go slower you will easily get hurt!" Being hurt is better than nothing, because we are all doctors and we know that hailstones as big as fists can kill people.

Ji Yanmo took a group of people to the mountains to chop firewood. They were lucky and found a cave. They left the firewood at the entrance of the cave and went into the cave to avoid the heavy rain. However, when they saw the heavy rain turned into fist-sized hail, everyone became anxious.

They were worried about the people working in the fields. Those who stayed at home to work were basically girls. There were three men, but these three men stayed at home to help the girls farm because they were sick.

Ji Yanmo couldn't wait any longer. "You guys stay here and wait until the hail stops. I'll go ahead with the firewood! Just be obedient and don't make us worry!"

Watching Ji Yanmo rush out of the cave, carrying the largest and heaviest firewood and quickly leaving, running towards home, everyone hesitated for a moment, and followed Ji Yanmo to carry their firewood home.

Lu Xingtang didn't rush to the front, but stayed behind, constantly urging them loudly: "Hurry up! Hurry up! We don't want the food and farm tools anymore, just leave them on the road. Let's go home quickly! When the hail stops, we'll go back and pick up the abandoned farm tools and food! Hurry!"

Fist-sized hailstones fell one after another. Lu Xingtang cheated and put the hailstones into space a second before they hit her, avoiding being hit by the hailstones and getting big bumps.

At Lu Xingtang's urging, everyone rushed back home at the speed of a demon. However, the moment they stepped into the house, they were shocked by the sad atmosphere. Lu Xingtang hurriedly asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"

The ones who stayed at home were all elderly teachers. "Teacher?" Lu Xingtang couldn't wait and rushed into the house. He found one of the white-haired teachers lying motionless on the bed. His face was pale, and a stream of scarlet blood flowed from his forehead, staining the pillow red. Lu Xingtang and his classmates were shocked as if they had been struck by lightning: "Teacher? Teacher Zhang?"

Everyone walked towards the bed step by step. Lu Xingtang's eyes were red. She stretched out her hand to feel Teacher Zhang's pulse, but the pulse stopped beating. Unwilling to give up, Lu Xingtang felt the pulse at the neck, but there was still no pulse and the breathing had stopped.

"Teacher Liu, Teacher Cao, Teacher Sun, Teacher Zhang...how come he's gone?" Lu Xingtang asked with red eyes and a sob.

Teacher Liu sighed, "After you went out to work, we stayed at home to clean up and wash clothes and quilts. Just as we finished washing and hung them out to dry, it started raining. The four of us were collecting clothes and quilts together. Lao Zhang was faster, so he collected one wave and then went back to collect! At that moment, the heavy rain turned into fist-sized hailstones, which hit Lao Zhang right on the head. He fell to the ground and died on the spot! We immediately took him home and gave him first aid, but... "

They failed to save Lao Zhang and watched his life quickly fade away.

"Teacher Zhang!"

"Teacher Zhang, didn't you promise us that you would live well and return to the imperial capital together in the future? Teacher Zhang, please open your eyes and look at us. We will take you back to the imperial capital right now. Let's go back to the imperial capital!"

"Teacher Zhang, I still want you to teach me medical skills. I still have a lot of medical knowledge that I don't understand, and I want to ask you for more advice. Can you stand up and teach me?"

"Teacher Zhang, you said you were our father and we were your children. We haven't fulfilled our filial duties yet and haven't given you a life of enjoying grandchildren. How could you leave me?"

"Teacher Zhang, I'm still sick. You said acupuncture could cure my illness the other day. Please get up and teach me. I want to learn acupuncture from you right now!"
