After a while, Xue Ning walked out of the kitchen, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and said to everyone:
"The three people inside are all awake now. I gave them some water and let them put candy in their mouths.
If there are no other complications, they will recover slowly under normal circumstances. We'd better prepare a few stretchers to take them back and take care of them first. "
A simple stretcher is easy to make, and the necessary items can be found everywhere in the mall, whether it is lifting poles, ropes, mattresses, quilts or even wooden boards. After everyone searched for it, the project was completed quickly.
"First carry them to the branch station, where we will take a rest and eat something, and then return to the villa with the much-needed equipment."
Speaking of this, everyone felt hungry, and their moods were ups and downs after repeated battles. If they hadn't been driven by goals, they would have wanted to go back and rest.
"Oh, come on, come on, I don't want to stay in this shitty place for a second longer, go out and get something to eat. Brother Yin, come here, let's carry this together!"
"Forget it, you help Sister Zhong and stay on guard while we take care of the people!"
"That's not possible, Teacher Xu is injured, I have to take her place, ah!" Shiyu covered her mouth.
As if struck by lightning, Feng Jing was a little dizzy: "What? The bamboo is injured, where is the injury?"
In an instant, all the questions were answered. It turned out that the uneasiness in my heart had been pointing to one person - Xu Sheng!
"I'm fine. I have a minor injury. Dr. Xue has already seen her. I'll be fine in another two days." At this point, Xu Sheng took a deep breath and said, "Don't worry about me. It's important to carry them back first."
"No! Show me the wound!" Feng Jing grabbed Xu Sheng's shoulders with trembling hands, his voice hoarse, "Don't be brave, it's really not a trivial matter, listen to me!"
"Don't get excited. If you want to see it, go to the branch first. The light here is so dark. I've seen it and it's not a big deal." Xue Ning held Feng Jing's left arm with both hands and persuaded.
Feng Jing shook his head and let go of Xu Sheng.
"Listen to Sister Xue and go to the branch station first!"
The sudden situation shocked everyone. Whether they were already known or unknown, they did not expect Feng Jing's reaction to be so big, and they had never seen Feng Jing like this before.
He has always been the mainstay of the team. He has confusion, distress, and self-blame, but he stands tall and leads the team forward every time.
Only this time, he hunched over, preferring to bend rather than bend, and struggled to move forward. His body was swaying, making people fear that he would throw the stretcher out in the next second. All his actions seemed to have determined Xu Sheng's life or death. The team walked out of the mall in silence, so oppressive that it made people breathless.
Among the crowd, only one person had some expectation of this. Zhong Ting had already sensed something abnormal about Xu Sheng, but the series of accidents and Xue Ning's diagnosis made her temporarily put aside her doubts. Until now, Feng Jing's abnormality has completely proved Her guess was that Xu Sheng was infected.
Everyone carefully carried the stretcher and walked into the lobby of the branch station. They carried the immobile women aside, spread the quilts on the floor and lay down to rest. Then they came to visit Xu Sheng who was left behind. Now they could clearly see that she was strange.
Her whole person seemed to have been drained of energy, whether she was optimistic, cheerful or serious, none of these could be seen from her body.
She looked at Feng Jing squatting in front of her with dull eyes, occasionally nodding or shaking her head in response. The sound coming out of her mouth was as thin as a gossamer, and it was difficult to hear what she said. It was all up to Zhong Ting to interpret it.
But gradually, Zhong Ting had no choice. The order of her words was confusing, and she couldn't understand it even if she repeated it. Shi Yu couldn't help but threw herself into Yin Jie's arms and cried.
Feng Jing endured his grief and kept mentioning the past between the two, his eyes filled with tears. Soon, Xu Sheng, who was still nodding and shaking his head, had tears rolling down from the corners of his eyes.
A shield was set up behind Xu Sheng, and Xue Ning began to help Feng Jing take off Xu Sheng's clothes one by one. Protective clothing, combat uniforms, and underwear were put aside one after another.
When Xu Sheng exposed her back, Xue Ning covered her mouth in surprise. The dressing on her back was soaked with blood again, and the color changed from dark red to a mixture of yellow, green and red.
After taking off the bandage, the green light in the blood flowing out of the wound was so dazzling that spots had already appeared on the nearby skin.
Everything proved his prediction. In fact, without looking at Xue Ning's expression, Feng Jing already had the answer in his heart when Xu Sheng, who was normal a few minutes ago, turned into what he is now.
"Infected, right?"
Facing Feng Jing's indifferent inquiry, Xue Ning couldn't give him the miracle he wanted and nodded desperately.
"Is there any way?"
Xue Ning turned her head, no longer looked directly at Feng Jing, and did not respond.
Shi Yu moved over with tears in her eyes, squatted down and took Xu Sheng's hand, looking at Feng Jing: "Brother Feng, it's my fault! I'm sorry for Teacher Xu!"
She sobbed and continued: "Teacher Xu became like this because he saved me. You blame me, ugh!"
"Silly boy, call her Teacher Xu. Whatever she does for you is what she should do. This is also her own choice. If you want to blame her, you can only blame her..."
Feng Jing did not continue, maybe because he didn't know who to blame, maybe because there were too many things to blame.
Does he hate Shigure? hatred! Gritting my teeth with hatred! I wish I could chop it down with an axe!
Does he hate Yin Jie? hatred! I hate it so much that I feel heartbroken! Without the bad plan he proposed, there wouldn't be so many things!
Does he hate Wang Tao...
Does he hate himself? hatred! I hate myself for being careless and greedy for success! I hate myself for being so ambitious and so short of talent, for being such a benevolent woman!
He could hate everyone but the girl in front of him.
This is the Xu Sheng that he knows, the Xu Sheng that he has always remembered, the Xu Sheng who has a deep love for him and needs to repay it throughout his life.
So, how could he hurt the person she wanted to protect to the death and ruin his image in her heart just to vent his resentment?
Feng Jing silently helped her get dressed, held her hands up, thought about it, put it down, helped her tie her clothes tightly, turned around, and asked Xue Ning to help her carry her behind her back.
"I'll take her back to the villa first, and then come to pick you up. You guys wait here first."
Looking at the two people walking away, no one spoke. Only Shigure's crying was left in the hall. She wanted to follow but was stopped by Xue Ning.
"Wang Tao, follow him secretly and look around. If you have nothing to do, just wait near the villa and come back with him!"
"I understand, Sister Xue!"
Xue Ning continued to make arrangements: "Everyone has a rest and has something to eat first. Brother Yin, you have to come to search for equipment. We will set off directly when Feng Jing comes back."
"I'm going right now!"
"Eat first, eat..."
"I'm not hungry yet." Before she could finish speaking, Yin Jie left a word and disappeared.
Xue Ning sighed secretly: "Sister Zhong, please be more careful." She took out water and food from her bag and handed them to Zhong Ting and then looked at Lin Qiu.
"Leave the outside matters to me!" Lin Qiu grabbed some food and ran out of the hall.
After making arrangements, he saw Wen Wan feeding water to the three lying women. She gave Shigure what was left in her hand and walked towards the injured woman.
"how do you feel?"
When diagnosing Xu Sheng, Xue Ning noticed that the woman was awake. She stood up carefully without disturbing anyone. She sat alone and did not communicate with the other three women.
After Feng Jing left, everyone else turned a blind eye when they saw this scene. Wen Wan even passed her directly and handed the water and candy to the other three people.
Regardless of whether it was forced or voluntary, the injured woman's actions will not receive gentle sympathy, and will remind her of the unbearable past.
"It's just a little painful, nothing else. You bandaged my wound, right? I haven't thanked you yet."
The woman looked at Xue Ning gratefully and wanted to get up, but was stopped by Xue Ning.
"My name is Xue Ning, a doctor from Binyi Hospital No. 1. I can help you with a little effort. You're welcome."
"I'm Lu Ying. I help out at the restaurant. Thank you for saving a few of them. It makes me feel better."
"I didn't do much to save them." Hearing her words, Xue Ning couldn't help but look at Lu Ying.
She was in her early twenties, with delicate facial features, malnutrition and blood loss from injuries, which really gave her the image of a sickly beauty. Unfortunately, the shrewd philistine in her eyes always made it flawed.
"Sister Xue is so humble. I just saw you arranging tasks in an orderly manner. It seems that you have studied management. Ah - no, you are a doctor, so you have good talent.
Only when leaders lead by example can employees work hard, so our salvation depends on your leadership. "
"You're praising the wrong person. If you really want to praise, you have to praise the one who just carried me away. We all follow his orders in everything we do."
"Are you talking about Brother Feng? I see him so sad. He treats every subordinate as his family. He is really a good leader."
"He is really good to us, but the one on his back is a little special."
Xue Ning was in a depressed mood. Xu Sheng's accidental infection made her heartbroken, but what worried her even more was Feng Jing's condition.
"She and Brother Feng -" Seeing Xue Ning nodding, Lu Ying said in surprise, "I thought you were the one, Sister Xue - I'm sorry, I'm too talkative!"
Lu Ying raised her right hand and patted her mouth twice. She let out a soft cry and frowned as she pulled the wound.
"Okay, you have a good rest first and don't touch the wound. I'll get you some food." Xue Ning did not continue the topic, stood up and left.
On the other side, Wen Wan and the other three people were talking quietly.
"See, she's so pretentious! Sister Xiaowan, if you keep her, you really have to be careful. You might get bitten back at some point."
"Okay Zhou Yan, please stop saying a few words. No matter what, our survival depends on her, and she can't help it."
"Ning Xuan, you were deceived by her. Yes, she evenly gave us some of her food so that we could live. I don't deny this.
But is that to save us? If we die, she will be next, and we will always be tortured while we are alive..."
The painful experience was unspeakable. Zhou Yan took a breath, supported her weak body with her right arm and continued: "I can't forget how she helped those beasts to intimidate and induce them in the beginning."
Seeing Ning Xuan's silence, Zhou Yan turned her gun and said, "Lina, tell me, what do you think of Lu Ying?"
The remaining woman was staring blankly at the ceiling. She turned her head when she heard the voice. Instead of answering Zhou Yan's question, she asked:
"Sister Xiaowan, is it true that there are zombies everywhere outside as you just said, and our parents and family are gone?"
"You have all seen the situation in the mall. When you return to the villa, you will see more zombie corpses nearby.
As for whether your parents and family can survive, if you are in Bincheng, you can check your mobile phone to see if there are any unread messages. Communication was restored for a while, and if there are no messages, it will be more dangerous.
But it doesn’t matter. Except for Sister Xue who has a daughter, the rest of our group are all alone. From now on, we will treat us as family members and we will live together.
If you need anything, just tell me. You need to take good care of yourself first. If you want to deal with zombies in the future, I will teach you how to use a knife. "
"Thank you, Miss Xiaowan!"
"Sister Xiaowan, you are so kind!"
Only Yu Lina listened to Wen Wan's words and turned her head to the wall without saying a word.
In this regard, Wen Wan expressed her understanding. After experiencing inhuman torture and betrayal by her boyfriend, her heart must be as riddled with holes as she was before.
