After dinner, Liu Yuhan told her "guess" to several adults in her family.
"What? You mean the plague? This..."
"Sir, it's very likely. You should discuss countermeasures with the village chief and the elders."
Liu Daling walked out of the room with heavy steps, and it was half an hour later when he came back.
Liu Yuhan and others didn't ask and went to sleep.
Liu Yuhan entered her space, picked up her phone and searched Baidu, and wrote down the personal protection rules for the epidemic:
Wrap up, isolate, and stay indoors;
Wash your hands and clean frequently;
Do not eat raw water, eat raw food;
Avoid filth and pollutants, and refresh the air;
Fumigation of the air (the room can be fumigated with herbs such as Atractylodes macrocephala, Artemisia argyi, Clove, Angelica dahurica, and Phellodendron chinense)
Liu Yuhan searched Baidu for the most common plagues after an earthquake: plague, cholera, and typhus. She took out her notebook and, using a black marker, meticulously wrote down the causes, symptoms, and herbal remedies for each of these three plagues.
Whenever Liu Yuhan has time, he will copy down agricultural and medical knowledge, and even several important inventions for people's livelihood, with a ballpoint pen.
Because she was afraid that her cell phone would malfunction one day, she carried an important notebook with her. Although writing in traditional Chinese characters was troublesome, she forced herself to adapt. She wrote in a condensed version of traditional Chinese characters with a ballpoint pen.
Liu Yuhan got up at daybreak, walked out of the village, picked up a telescope and looked around, seeing devastation everywhere.
The official road was not far in front of her. On the left side of the official road was Yiyang City, and on the right side was the previous pass of the valley. The road on the right was completely blocked, while the official road on the left was flat and not badly damaged, and it was passable as far as the eye could see.
I just don't know what the situation is like in Yiyang City. Cities are places where people and houses are concentrated. If an earthquake occurs, it is hard to imagine how many people will be injured or killed.
So the road to the right is blocked, and the road to the left is unknown and full of danger. Which way should I go?
Behind the village? In the distance, there are endless mountains, and I don’t know where they lead to...
In the main hall of the courtyard, there sat two village chiefs and several elders, including Liu Daling, Liu Yuhan, and her parents.
"My grandfather left his hometown and moved to Lin'an Prefecture because of the earthquake. It was not just because of the earthquake. The earthquake triggered an epidemic, resulting in countless deaths and injuries. People had to move from central and southern China to the north. Alas, God wants to kill the people..." An elder of the clan said tremblingly.
"Right now, we can't go where there are crowds of people. If we run out of food and water, how will we survive?"
"We can't go to Yiyang City, where can we go?"
………
Liu Daling, Liu Shinan, Liu Shi and Liu Yuhan's family told us the countermeasures they had discussed.
"If a plague really breaks out, some people will definitely hide here. It's not safe here. Let's hide behind the village first. There are mountains behind us. Let's go into the mountains first. Does it seem feasible to you all?" Liu Daling said.
Village Chief Liu said, "How about we send a few people to the back mountain to take a look? Let's discuss it."
"Uncle village chief, we should not only send people to check out the back mountain, but we'd better also explore Yiyang City first." Liu Yuhan said.
After everyone made their decision, they quickly packed up their things.
Liu Yuhan took his parents to the back mountain. She had a telescope, and Liu Shinan would climb a tree to observe. Liu Yuhan told him it would be best to find a secluded cave. Try to get as far away as possible, away from the village. Fortunately, the back mountain was not affected by the earthquake.
The three of them walked for a full hour and ate some bread on the way. Liu Yuhan also brought braised eggs and dried meat to his parents and gave each of them a bottle of Red Bull.
Liu Shinan had never eaten such delicious eggs and dried meat. The fragrance was a bit spicy. The bottle was hard, the words on it were strange, and the water tasted strange too. But he felt full of energy after drinking it. Could this be the magic water given by God?
If Liu Yuhan knew what he was thinking, she would definitely be grinning from ear to ear. This is not magic water, it is a functional drink.
Found a piece of land using a telescope.
Well, this place is good. The cave entrance is high, surrounded by large rocks, and there are big trees next to the rocks. It can eliminate factors such as landslides and mudslides, and it is also good for defense.
Liu Yuhan felt that the weather was not right. He was afraid that there would be severe floods after the drought, so he had to find a good place to resettle.
They went inside and took a look. Not bad, there were no signs of animals. They walked around and found a small, secluded cave nearby. The three of them cleaned it up.
Liu Yuhan took out all four bags of brown rice that he had cleared out in Luoyang County. He had cleared out five bags before and cooked and ate one on the way.
Take out all the white and black flour you took from the bandit's den. There are about two bags, plus two bags of brown rice you took from the bandit's den. Six bags of brown rice and two bags of flour.
The two large water tanks taken from the bandit's lair were taken out, as were the several large water tanks taken during the raid on Luoyang County. Water was drawn from the space, the water tanks were cleaned, filled with water, and covered with wooden lids. There were seven large water tanks in total, and they would last for a short time if they were conserved.
I took out 5 bags of salt, the salted dried vegetables I bought at the farmers' market, and the remaining winter melon and pumpkin. Together with the villagers digging wild vegetables and finding yams nearby, I should be able to hold out for long.
Liu Yuhan wanted to ask Liu Shinan to bring the villagers over tomorrow while she and Liu were going into the city. Liu Shinan was extremely reluctant and insisted on going with them!
He was really worried about the mother and daughter going out. Liu also agreed to let Liu Shinan go with him.
There was no other way but to ask Liu Shinan to make another trip and call all the villagers over to tell the grandparents and only his family members about the things hidden in the cave.
There is a small cave next to the big cave. The mother and daughter cleaned up the small cave and prepared to leave it for themselves and Liu Shiliu's family.
After the cave was swept clean, Liu Yuhan took out a lot of bamboo curtains from the space and spread them on the ground. He then covered the bamboo curtains with thatched curtains and the worn-out quilt he brought from home with them. This way, it wouldn't be so cold to sleep at night as the cave was very humid.
