Chapter 71 More and More Mysterious
She was a mad woman with disheveled hair, a dirty face, dull eyes, tangled hair, and shiny clothes. She smelled bad and drooled at the corners of her mouth. She was grinning foolishly at Lu Xingtang, holding a black pillow in her hands, and the way she held the pillow was very similar to how she would hold a child.
"Shh, don't disturb my baby's sleep, she just fell asleep!" The crazy woman lowered her voice and said to Lu Xingtang, "Look, isn't the baby cute? Let me tell you, my baby is very obedient and sensible. She only cries when she's hungry or has diarrhea. She never cries at other times. She smiles at me every day, and I don't know what she's smiling at."
Lu Xingtang frowned. This person lived in their apartment building, 1801. 1801 was a young couple. Before the apocalypse, the woman was eight months pregnant.
After the apocalypse broke out, the couple was trapped at home and could not go out. Soon all the food in the house was eaten up, but the man never went out to look for supplies, and asked the woman, who was pregnant, to go out to look for supplies. In order to survive, the woman had to go out to look for supplies.
As a result, before I even walked out of the apartment building, I saw a lightning bolt that killed someone. I was so scared that I went into premature labor.
When the child was born, he had no milk and was a premature baby, so he was weak. Her husband did not go out to look for supplies until he was too hungry to bear it anymore.
The supplies they found weren't enough for two people, yet he ate a lot, showing no sense of conservation. The woman, for the sake of her child, had to eat more, hoping to have enough milk to feed the child. She even secretly hid a lot of rice, cooked it in a thermos, and mashed it with a spoon to feed the child.
It was unknown when the man would stop returning home after searching for supplies, and even when he did, he wouldn't bring back any food. The woman would coax the child to sleep and, despite her frail body, go out to search for supplies. With her luck, she would find quite a bit, enough for the mother and daughter to eat.
Before the moth outbreak, the man returned, covered in dirt and wounds. She had a huge argument with him, and he even wanted to take her out to sell her for supplies. The woman disagreed, and a fight ensued. The man was brutal, picking up a stool and knocking her unconscious.
When she woke up, she couldn't find the child. She asked the man, but he refused to tell her.
It was not until the woman found a finger in the pot that the man told the truth. Their child, the child that the woman risked her life to give birth to and raise, was...cooked...by him!
The woman was so angry that she almost fainted. While the man was sleeping, she took a kitchen knife and chopped him into pieces and threw them out of the window.
It was also from that time that the woman became crazy and hugged a pillow every day to comfort her like a child.
He retracted his gaze and said, "I'll climb up the window and grab the tricycle!"
Lu Xingtang climbed out the window and squatted on the windowsill, grabbing the tricycle that Ji Yanmo handed over. Ji Yanmo immediately came up, pulled the tricycle and jumped off the windowsill, without even looking at the woman who was holding the child and smiling foolishly, and went upstairs.
When he returned to the 19th floor, he saw that the door of 1903 was open. Su Cheng stood at the door and looked out anxiously. When he saw Lu Xingtang and the others coming back, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank God, you are back safely."
Ji Yanmo didn't go to Su Cheng's house. Lu Xingtang looked at Ji Yanmo's slender figure and said, "Ji Yanmo, I'll come to you right away!" He turned and went into Su Cheng's house. Su Hao's condition was still very serious. He immediately prescribed medicine for Su Hao and gave him an IV. While preparing the medicine, he told Su Cheng what happened in the market: "Fortunately, gold can be used to buy medicine, otherwise these medicines would be gone! All the medicines that can cure Grandpa Su's illness have been bought back. Su Cheng, you don't have to worry."
Su Cheng was very grateful: "Lu Xingtang, thank you!" If it weren't for Lu Xingtang, his father might not have survived.
Lu Xingtang: "Are we allies?" Yes, he was repaying the life-saving favor of his previous life.
After Lu Xingtang gave Su Hao an IV, he observed him carefully for a while and confirmed that everything was fine. "Su Cheng, I'm going to go see Ji Yanmo. We just ran into the crazy woman from 1801 downstairs. She hit a tricycle and I almost fell. It was Ji Yanmo who saved me, but I accidentally got a nail stuck in my throat. I'm going to go check it out! You stay with your dad. If you have any problems, just call Ji Yanmo on the intercom."
Without waiting for Su Cheng to answer, Lu Xingtang turned around and went to 1902. Ji Yanmo had already changed his clothes. Seeing Lu Xingtang coming over, he said, "I'm fine." He was really fine!
"I'll apply medicine and give you a tetanus shot. It's the end of the world, so you'd better be careful!"
Ji Yanmo looked at Lu Xingtang's eyes full of concern, paused, stepped aside to let Lu Xingtang in, closed the door, and took off half of his clothes, showing Lu Xingtang the wound: "Do you believe it?"
Lu Xingtang: "!!!" How could there not be any wounds? She clearly saw blood!
There's still blood on that steel nail!
Ji Yanmo put on his clothes and said indifferently, "Don't tell anyone about this! If anyone knows, it's you who told them. I won't show mercy to you just because we're allies!"
Lu Xingtang understood that this was also one of Ji Yanmo's secrets. This person was becoming more and more mysterious.
"Promise to keep it a secret!" He paused and said, "Su Cheng might ask you."
"I'll manage."
Su Hao received intravenous drips for seven days before he recovered. However, he lost a lot of weight due to his illness, and his clothes looked particularly loose on him. Su Cheng's eyes were red, but fortunately, he got through it.
Lu Xingtang patted Su Cheng on the shoulder: "Give Grandpa Su more nourishment, he is too weak, but don't nourish him too much, his body can't bear it!" After all, he is an old man, so we have to proceed step by step.
"Thank you, Lu Xingtang. If it weren't for you, my dad would have already..."
"Okay, I've said thank you so many times that my ears are callused!" In his previous life, Su Hao died during a virus outbreak. It is still extremely cold now, and it is still early for the virus to break out. This means that even without her, Su Hao would be fine.
Xu Yan came to see Lu Xingtang again and said that she had applied for a job as a nurse in the hospital, with 30 kilograms of food and two meals a month. She didn't know any medical knowledge, but when she arrived at the hospital, someone would train her and teach her simple medical knowledge so that she could start working quickly.
Lu Xingtang did not stop him, "Be careful, the temporary hospital is not that safe, it's best to bring a gun with you! No one will take your gun away!" The doctors and nurses in the hospital were not equipped with guns, but were equipped with knives as weapons, just in case.
In other words, even if the gun in Xu Yan's hand was discovered, it would not be taken away.
Xu Yan sent all the household supplies to Lu Xingtang's house and asked Lu Xingtang to help keep them. Even a piece of wood was moved to Lu Xingtang's house. She couldn't guarantee that no one would pry open her door after she left. If someone pried it open, she would be left with nothing.
Xu Yan didn't have much supplies, so she put them into her space and would give them to her when Xu Yan came back.
As soon as Xu Yan left, Min Weihuan, the building manager, knocked on the door and asked Lu Xingtang for medicine. Lu Xingtang frowned and said, "I don't have any medicine, but there are some in the trading market!"
