Although the two new cities are heading in both directions, there is still a distance between them. The transition zone is relatively chaotic, and there are many risks in going back and forth.
Knowing Jiang Ning's ability, Ma Guangnian did not refuse.
The Guangdong Traditional Chinese Medicine Research Institute is much larger than the temporary station in Fengcheng.
The Hummer stopped at the door, and just happened to see someone coming out with medicinal plants. It is estimated that the cooperative planting model is going well.
"Xiao Jiang, if you hadn't started it, we wouldn't have thought of this good idea."
Ma Guangnian was very happy, "I spend most of my time here, if you have something in the future, you can come directly."
"Thank you, Teacher Ma, I will come to disturb you often in the future, I hope you don't think I'm annoying then."
Ma Guangnian is not annoyed, and even hopes to have more people like Jiang Ning.
It is so difficult to train an excellent Chinese medicine practitioner. The sudden end of the world has killed so many doctors. The talent gap is the most terrifying.
He took out a very old book from his bag. "This is a book my teacher gave me in the early years. It has been out of print for decades. It records the difficult and complicated diseases and solutions encountered by Chinese medicine for thousands of years. Now I lend it to you to take it back and study it carefully. Remember to keep it well."
The thick book was yellowed and old, which showed how precious it was.
Jiang Ning was flattered. "Thank you, teacher."
Ma Guangnian's teacher should be the old professor who developed the prescription for treating liver and lung infections caused by haze. I hope to meet him one day.
After waving goodbye, Jiang Ning drove back to Fengcheng.
Just as they reached the border of Fengcheng, a shadow rushed out from the roadside.
There was no time to brake, and they were thrown out with a bang, completely unable to move.
No, are the scammers so crazy in the end times?
Jiang Ning was a little confused by the collision, but he did not get out of the car to check. Instead, he took out his gun and looked around alertly.
Not far away, a shadow rushed over, with an agile figure, a security patrolman's armband on his arm, and a blast-proof baton in his hand.
Looking at the man lying in a pool of blood, he was stunned for a moment, then squatted down to check.
He was dying, there was no hope.
Taking the cloth bag that the man was holding tightly in his hand, he dragged the man to the side of the road, then looked at Jiang Ning and gestured for her to get out of the car.
Jiang Ning looked at the person outside the car window, and the blood instantly rushed to his forehead.
The two looked at each other and were stunned.
Jiang Ning opened the car door. She was happy at first, then complicated, and then rushed over to hug her excitedly, "Aning."
She didn't expect to meet Lu Yu in such an occasion.
In fact, she almost didn't recognize him.
After two years of separation, Lu Yu has become a completely different person.
His skin, which was whiter and more delicate than that of a girl, is gone. It has become rough and dark, and there is even a scar on his face.
He, who looks like a boy with a girlish appearance, was tortured into a rough old man.
On the other hand, Jiang Ning has hardly changed at all, and can even be said to be more beautiful. In addition to her clean and cool appearance, she has added some distinct beauty and charm.
The two people who started from the same point met again as if by heaven.
"Why are you here?" Jiang Ning was immersed in the joy of reunion. "Huo Yishen and I went to Dongqiao Mountain a few months ago, and we also went to the military base to look for you, but the base said there was no such person and thought you went to the Jiacheng military base."
Speaking of the past, Lu Yu forced a smile, "After arriving in Huicheng, we went to the official base."
It was unsafe to talk while standing on the side of the road, so Jiang Ning pulled Lu Yu into the car, "How are Zhang Chao and Wei Li? Is the official base not good? Why did you go back to Fengcheng?"
The weather was quite cold, and seeing that he was not wearing thick clothes and his face was frozen purple, Jiang Ning handed him a thermos, "Hot water."
Lu Yu did not take it, and did not know how to tell her about the past two years. "Aning, do you have cigarettes?"
Jiang Ning was stunned.
She didn't like the smell of cigarettes, and Lu Yu almost never smoked before.
But the environment was so depressing and suffocating, so it's not surprising that he learned to smoke.
Jiang Ning passed the cigarette to him.
Lu Yu smoked three cigarettes in a row, rubbed the cigarettes and said, "Zhang Chao and Wei Li are still here, and the places we patrol are different. Wei Li is in the east of the city, and Zhang Chao is in the center of the city. It's still the same as before, with a rotation every half a month."
Seeing his extremely skillful smoking movements, Jiang Ning knew in his heart that the three of them had encountered difficulties.
And it was not an ordinary obstacle.
What kind of thing could torture a person who is naturally optimistic and a little silly into what he is today.
"On the way to Huicheng, we encountered several highway robbers, but we got through them safely..."
Zheng Weili's home is in Xiancheng Village Town. After experiencing the typhoon flood and freezing, she returned home with great difficulty, but she was still a step too late. Her
parents are gone.
According to neighbors, they died of heat stroke.
After burying their parents, Zheng's brothers and sisters moved to the official base in Jiacheng.
Brothers and sisters have fought since they were young. I dare not say that their feelings are very deep, but after all, they have the same blood flowing in their bodies. Especially for Zheng Weili, who didn't even see her parents for the last time, her two brothers are the last relatives in the world.
Lu Yu and Zhang Chao wanted to enter the military base, but after discussion, they accompanied Zheng Weili to Jiacheng.
After handing over 30 kilograms of food, they successfully entered the base and found two pairs of brothers and sisters-in-law.
The nephews and nieces were still alive.
Perhaps to make up for the family ties, Zheng Weili took great care of the two families. The nephews and nieces would come to ask for food when they passed by.
Lu Yu didn't mind at first. After all, she was his beloved woman, and Zheng Weili was more capable than him. During the years they had been dating, she had always paid more.
But some things, once opened, could not be ended at all. The two families were very eager to find reasons to ask for things, and each one was more powerful than the other.
Although the three of them brought a lot of food and medicine, they couldn't stand such consumption.
In order to settle down in the base, the three of them actively looked for jobs and planned for the future.
As a newcomer with no connections, he could only do the hardest labor and eat only until he was half full, with even less food to eat.
Today one child in the Zheng family was sick, and tomorrow another child was hungry. There were always problems.
A bystander can see things more clearly. Lu Yu mentioned it to Zheng Weili in a very tactful way, but at that time she was trapped in the grief of her parents' death. She was kidnapped by her two pairs of brothers and sisters-in-law, and everything she should and shouldn't have been given was given away.
The labor intensity at the base was high and they could not meet their basic needs, so the three of them later became waste collectors.
Once Zheng Weili was injured, Lu Yu asked the Zheng family for antibiotics, but neither family was willing to give them out.
In the end, it was Zhang Chao who took them. After
experiencing life and death, Zheng Weili also saw through it and gradually distanced herself from the Zheng family.
But later, she accidentally became pregnant.
Giving birth in the end of the world is undoubtedly gambling with King Yan with your life.
But if you don't want to be pregnant, having an abortion is also gambling with your life, so you can only take the risk and live.
A new life is about to be born, and as time goes by, Zheng Weili has completely seen the true colors of the Zheng family. They don't even let them ask for a grain of rice.
The nephews and nieces were deceived by their parents and felt that their aunt didn't give them food because she was giving it to a gigolo, and now she wants to raise a bastard.
In desperation, they cursed Zheng Weili and even hit her belly.
Zheng Weili was frightened and slapped each of them. The
slapped children rolled on the ground, and one of them cried loudly, "You are a money loser, pregnant with a bastard who wastes food. I will starve him to death when he is born, just like I starved my grandpa and grandma to death..."
