Shen Lansui's proposal quickly reached the Seventh Prince's ears. He thought about it and thought it was wonderful, so he immediately started arranging people to do it. Soon, the men and women who were less injured signed up to participate in the rescue operation.
Doctor Zhang and other doctors worked in groups and taught them how to clean wounds, apply medicine and bandage them. They should not treat any kind of injury casually but must call someone.
It took a lot of time to come up with this set of procedures. Experienced people led newbies, and the speed was slow at first. But after the first batch was successfully dispatched, their speed improved by leaps and bounds. They could almost dig out a wounded person and receive treatment immediately. .
Shen Lansui looked at this scene with relief and raised his hand to block the sun.
She was smiling when her lips suddenly touched something soft. She lowered her eyes in surprise and heard someone say from behind her: "Open your mouth."
She subconsciously did as she was told, and a piece of fragrant, soft and warm snack was stuffed into her mouth.
Sweet things always make people happy.
Shen Lansui's fatigue and numbness from a busy day were instantly dispelled, her whole body relaxed, and she leaned back without looking back.
Then he just leaned on Lu Xingyue's shoulder. He took a step forward to let her lean more firmly. After she had finished chewing, he took another piece and fed her.
When the two of them were feeding and eating, neither of them spoke, but they had a tacit understanding and knew what the other was going to do with just one move.
After eating five pieces, Shen Lansui shook his head and said, "No more."
Lu Xingyue took back his hand and stuffed the snack into his mouth, swallowed it and asked, "Do you want some water?"
"Um."
Shen Lansui straightened up and turned to look at him. Lu Xingyue took out a water bag and handed it to her. The water inside was still warm. Shen Lansui took it and drank it slowly, and her mind was free. This was a rare thing for her. Relaxation moment.
After eating and drinking enough, she screwed on the cap and returned the water bag to Lu Xingyue, "How do you feel today? Are you okay?"
Lu Xingyue nodded, "The wound is fine."
Shen Lansui hooked her fingers, and he obediently stretched out his hand. The familiar warmth flowed into his body. Lu Xingyue held her hand helplessly, "We agreed not to worry about me."
"I didn't say it." Shen Lansui openly regretted it and whispered: "As a family member, I will give you some privileges, isn't it too much?"
The more Lu Xing wanted to say something, Shen Lansui covered his mouth with her other hand and frowned, "I have tried to be fair, but people's hearts are inherently biased. It is not illegal for me to be nice to my own husband. You can’t stop letting me do it.”
Lu Xingyue looked at her deeply, finally gave in and resigned himself to letting her treat him.
The invisible wounds suddenly felt much better, and he could even feel the flesh healing.
But that feeling soon disappeared, and Shen Lansui withdrew his hand, "Okay, let's get here first today."
"Doctor Shen, we found another person here——"
Someone shouted in the distance, and Shen Lansui immediately turned around and said, "Got it!"
She turned her head, held Lu Xingyue's face, pressed her lips gently against his, and ran away without saying a word.
Lu Xingyue was stunned for a moment, then slowly raised his hand to touch his lips, then smiled and shook his head.
Both of them were exhausted when they returned to the bedroom at night. They ate a casual meal, took a shower, went to bed, and basically fell asleep. At dawn, they got up and ran out in a hurry.
After going around like this for several days, there are fewer and fewer ruins in Wanguan City and more and more people. Basically, those who can be saved have been rescued. What is left are the bones. Even if they are dead, they must be dug out properly. Disposal.
Rows of brick houses have been built in the spacious place, and people have moved in one after another. At least they have a place to shelter from the wind and rain.
The second batch of materials allocated by the imperial court also arrived. Medicinal materials and cold-proof clothing and quilts were transported into the city in carts. The people suddenly cheered.
Food and meat were also replenished, and everyone's porridge thickened a lot in the evening, with some minced meat and vegetables added to it.
The people gathered together in twos and threes, and finally saw smiles on their faces.
However, good times do not last long and misfortunes never come singly.
It rained heavily in the middle of the night, and it barely stopped until dawn.
It was originally late autumn here, and the temperature dropped sharply after the heavy rain.
As the night passed, the injured person became even worse and developed a high fever.
Doctor Zhang and Judge Xue were busy early in the morning.
Shen Lansui couldn't help at this time, so he could only help out and stay up late to distribute the food.
"There is no way to go on like this. If it spreads from ten to ten, I'm afraid it will all burn up."
Doctor Zhang came out and sighed.
Shen Lansui said: "Let everyone who is responsible for taking care of patients wear a veil. It can block as much as possible."
Speaking of this, she suddenly thought of masks and hurriedly went to discuss it with the Seventh Prince. The Seventh Prince listened to her words and looked at what she had drawn. He was surprised and happy, "This thing can really stop the wind and cold?"
Shen Lansui shook his head, "It can only play a preventive role. If you stay among the patients for a long time, there will still be a risk of infection, but it is better than nothing. There are already few people, and every one who falls is a loss."
The seventh prince heard the same thing and quickly went to find a craftsman with the drawings drawn by Shen Lansui.
A simple version of the mask was soon made. It was definitely not as thin as the disposable masks of later generations, but it was enough for makeshift use.
Everyone put them on one after another and became more careful when entering and exiting. The number of patients was finally under control.
However, the current patient has a high fever, cannot eat, and quickly vomits out the medicine he drinks, leaving him helpless.
Heavy rain made it more difficult to clear and excavate the ruins, and the soldiers had to slow down.
Wanguan City, which finally regained its vitality, once again fell into gloom.
Lu Xingyue came to take Shen Lansui home. His injury had completely healed, but he still wrapped himself in a fine cloth and pretended that he was not well. Otherwise, such an incredible speed would definitely arouse people's suspicion.
He came back from the construction site and went to the porridge shed to take a drink of water. He saw a tall figure walking in from the outside, still wet with moisture.
Their eyes met, Lu Xingyue handed him a handkerchief, "How is the situation outside the city?"
It was Liang Ci who came in. He took the handkerchief and wiped his face casually, revealing a pair of red bloodshot eyes, and said solemnly: "It's not good."
He sat down on the bench. The hem of his robe was covered with mud and water, and he looked very embarrassed.
After drinking a bowl of water, he took a long breath, rubbed his hands and said, "There were many dead and injured outside the city. When we were disposing of the corpses, we also dug out mass graves. The sewage was everywhere along the ditch. I I’m a little worried now.”
He didn't say what he was worried about, but he glanced at Lu Xingyue, and Lu Xingyue's expression changed, "You mean - epidemic?"
Liang Ci pursed his lips and lowered his voice: "Although epidemics don't often occur in winter, the weather in Wanguan City is not too cold, and so many people died. Let's not talk about the mass graves. There are also a lot of rots in other places. , when the heavy rain came, someone accidentally got contaminated...it’s hard to say.”
