More and more people came to the clinic, and Lin Yan was so busy that he couldn't even keep his feet on the ground. At first, he could simply change shifts with Lin's father. Now, Lin's father and Lin Yan can no longer cope with the situation.
When Qian Yan came out and opened the door, she saw such a scene. The corridor was so packed that it was almost impenetrable.
But why does this happen? Qian Yan was a little confused. After all, the rubber boats were limited. Even if someone went out to look for supplies, there shouldn't be such a large crowd at once.
No matter how thick the door on the 23rd floor was, it could not withstand so many people coming to seek medical treatment. Seeing that the door was about to be broken through by everyone, Qian Yan immediately opened the door. No matter what, she wanted to see the situation first.
The crowds in the corridor were crowded together, and many people were already experiencing symptoms of difficulty breathing. If this continued, not only would Lin Yan's clinic not be able to survive, but even their homes would have problems.
"Everyone, don't crowd! Don't crowd!"
"Help!"
"I have a stomach ache!"
"help me!!"
"My child! Ah! Help!"
Qian Yan opened the door, and people poured in as if they had found a breakthrough.
Gu Peihuai and Cheng Guang stood at the door, forcing themselves against the rush of people rushing in outside.
The sharp-eyed Qian Yan discovered during this interval that the people outside the door were not burned by acid rain at all.
She was well aware of the corrosiveness of acid rain. After being burned, there would be obvious marks on the body. Most people were not prepared for this. In addition, the temperature continued to rise these days. People did not wear much. If they were burned, Burning can be easily seen, but the people rushing in in front of them don't look like they are burned by acid rain.
Most of these people were pale, sweating, and unable to stand upright because of abdominal pain.
This is
Qian Yan was not easy to identify for a while.
When Lin Yan and Lin's father inside saw clearly what was going on outside, the door was forcefully closed again by the two of them.
Lin Yan tried to use supernatural powers to calm these people's emotions but was suppressed by Qian Yan.
"Xiaoyan, see you later, let's discuss it first."
Lin Yan nodded.
The two did not explain the matter clearly, but they already understood each other tacitly.
The last time Lin Yan faced such a large number of people, he fainted from exhaustion. Although he had gained experience this time, he only had one chance. If he could not make good use of this opportunity, there would probably be crazy patients outside. To break through the defense line, there will be no chance again.
"Ah~"
"Mom, my stomach hurts"
At this moment, Lin Xuan's two children made a sound.
Everyone was attracted by the voices of the two children, and saw that the round little faces of the two little dolls, which had been raised these days, were tightly wrinkled, but their expressions were horribly pale.
"Baby, what's wrong?" Lin Xuan looked at the two little dolls with some worry.
"Mom, my stomach hurts"
The three-year-old girl already spoke in a coquettish voice, but her appearance now made people nervous.
"Let me see."
Lin Yan stepped forward to see what was going on. He listened to the two little dolls with a stethoscope, but frowned tightly.
After a long time, Lin Yan turned his head and looked at Father Lin, and then Father Lin also stepped forward to check.
"Dad, could it be?"
"It shouldn't be."
Father Lin shook his head and said to himself.
"Dr. Lin, what happened to the two children? Are they hungry?"
Lin Xuan looked at Lin Yan and Lin's father anxiously, but they didn't seem to have a definite conclusion yet.
"It's an iron worm."
"Ironworm?"
Qian Yan was a little surprised when she heard these three words, because she remembered that the appearance of the iron worms in the last life was about a year after the end of the world, not now! So she didn't make any more guesses in this regard.
"Yes, to be precise, it is a mutated iron worm. This kind of worm usually parasitizes in the body of arthropods. It will steal the nutrients from the host's body to support itself. When it matures, it will break out of the body. The people outside also look like this. The symptoms, right now, are just symptoms before the onset of the disease, abdominal pain, but..."
"But what?"
"However, I have not yet seen any case of this kind of insect parasitizing the human body."
Lin Yan was doing popular science for everyone.
"Don't talk about it. Even I, who have been practicing medicine for decades, have only heard some rumors and have never seen a similar case with my own eyes."
"Is there any cure?" Lin Xuan had already burst into tears and asked Lin Yan and Lin's father tremblingly.
The two little babies fell to the ground crying in pain, and the crazy crowd outside was about to break through the door.
Qian Yan carefully thought about the symptoms of these people, and they were indeed somewhat similar to those of iron worms. In addition, someone outside had already announced the medicine for this disease in the last life, and it seemed that people did not die on a large scale because of it.
In this life, why is there such a big difference? It was almost half a year ahead of schedule, and it was still happening when there was acid rain outside, which completely hindered people’s travel.
The fairy water in the space may be able to save them, but if it is used on a large scale, it will be too easy to expose. Qian Yan is not willing to expose her secret, so using the fairy water is not feasible.
"There is help, but there is no medicine here."
Father Lin made his judgment based on his many years of medical experience.
"What kind of medicine! I'll look for it! As long as it can save my children"
Lin Xuan has completely collapsed. As a mother, in this troubled world, her only wish is to survive for herself and her children. At the same time, this is also the spiritual pillar that supports her to survive in this apocalypse. If the spiritual pillar collapses, then Her world collapsed.
Qian Yan helped Lin Xuan up. "Don't worry, we will all find a solution together and it will get over."
"Ai Luo Ke, you might be able to try this medicine, and it is available on the market. As long as you can get out, you should find it or exchange it for supplies."
Father Lin's words were like giving Lin Xuan a reassurance.
"I'm going right now! I'm going right now!"
Lin Xuan stood up and was about to walk out.
"No, it's still raining acid outside. You can't go out, you'll die."
Cheng Guang stopped Lin Xuan.
"Yes, Lin Xuan, there are so many people outside now, none of us can get out now."
Bai Ruru agreed.
"Yes, let's evacuate the crowd outside first."
The door in front of her was hit harder and harder, Qian Yan said.
Looking at each other, Qian Yan said to Gu Peihuai at the door:
"Gu Peihuai, open the door."
As soon as the door opened, the crowd surged forward again. Lin Yan silently calmed the mood of the crowd from behind. After a long time, the restlessness in the crowd finally calmed down a lot.
Qian Yan quickly climbed up on the table, stood on the top, and said to the crowd outside with the loudest voice she could make: "Ai Luo Ke, this medicine Ai Luo Ke can treat your illness, go to the property management to find it, we are here There is no medicine! Go to the property management department to find it!”
As soon as Qian Yan's words came out, the crowd outside the door rushed in the opposite direction. After all, that was the only way to save them.
After the crowd dispersed, Lin Xuan also rushed out.
"Lin Xuan! It's acid rain outside now! Don't go!"
Bai Ruru grabbed Lin Xuan's clothes and tried to stop her.
But Lin Xuan's mind was filled with her two children whose lives were at stake, and how could she care about so many other things.
"No, I have to go even if the knife is being used outside. My children need me, don't stop me, I must save them."
With tears in her eyes, Lin Xuan took a deep look at the two little dolls huddled on the ground, then took off her hands and rushed out.
"No, I have a little here."
Qian Yan finally spoke up to stop Lin Xuan.
After hearing Qian Yan's words, Lin Xuan finally stopped, turned around and knelt down towards Qian Yan with a plop.
"Are you really there?"
"I seem to remember there is one. I'll go back and look for it for you. You can't get the medicine even if you go out now. Don't waste your life."
Qian Yan has been feeding Lin Xuan a lot these days, and the two little guys are really lovable, so they should just treat them as gifts for getting to know each other.
"However, it's not for free. It needs supplies in exchange."
Qian Yan added before turning around and going upstairs.
Help is help, but you must never let others take it for granted. People in the last days are too dirty, so it is better to make everything clear.
When he came out again, the corridor was already filled with supplies, including two barrels of cooking oil, 20 compressed biscuits, 3 bags of flour, a bag of rice, and some trivial snacks. Qian Yan knew that these items were already in Lin Xuan's possession these days. All gained here.
Qian Yan took out the medicine cut into small pieces from her pocket and handed two pieces to Lin Xuan.
"I dug this out at home. I don't have any more, and it will expire in a few months. You should give it to the children quickly."
Of course Qian Yan's words were false. After all, the basket of medicines that Lin Yan had stocked for her had not been used yet. They were all kinds of medicines and they were quite common. However, Qian Yan also knew that this medicine was for treating... There is no root cause. After all, when this phenomenon occurred in the previous life, the drug list published was not these.
Along with those pills was a glass of water.
"Those people outside also have similar symptoms. I guess it has something to do with the water outside. This is the snow I dug when it was extremely cold and melted. I have been drinking it, so there should be no problem."
"You're saying this disease is caused by people drinking water from outside?"
Cheng Guang was a little surprised and scared at the same time. Fortunately, they dug out a lot of snow during the extreme cold. Even now, they have not been willing to throw it away. In addition, Bai Ruru has been pregnant for many months, so they are very careful and use it all the time. The one I got was packaged mineral water brought back from outside, so I was lucky enough to escape the disaster now.
"Not entirely. I just guessed that there is another possibility that it was infected when the water came up."
It is not difficult to guess that after the first round of extreme cold after the end of the world, a large amount of snow accumulated and people had to brave the wind and snow to dig out the snow. In addition, the ice and snow melted later, ushering in heavy rains. Maybe some people would directly choose to use Due to the rain, coupled with the rising water level, many people waited for the water level to cross their doors before escaping. That is when they are most vulnerable to infection.
"Anyway, everyone should be careful and boil the water as much as possible before using it."
Lin Yan made the final conclusion.
Lin Xuan's two children took medicine and drank Qian Yan's water mixed with fairy water. Their complexions had recovered a lot, but they still looked a little weak, but Qian Yan knew that there was nothing wrong with the two little babies.
It's just that the iron worm came suddenly, at least more unexpectedly than in the previous life. What exactly pushed this matter forward?
"Qian Yan, thank you, thank you! Thank you for saving my two children!"
Lin Xuan knelt in front of Qian Yan again, crying uncontrollably.
"You don't have to be like this. I didn't give you those things for free. Just treat them as if you bought them from me. We don't owe each other anything."
Qian Yan took five compressed biscuits from it.
"Num~ According to the previous prices, these two pills are not worth much. This is what you paid for me."
Lin Xuan stared blankly at Qian Yan, who was holding five biscuits in his hand. He had experienced so much in the past half a year. Naturally, he knew how valuable food was, and he also knew how valuable medicine was. What’s more, people outside were rushing to grab this kind of food. Medicine was hard to come by, and Qian Yan only wanted 5 pieces of compressed biscuits from her. She knew that Qian Yan was specially taking care of them.
"From now on, you will be the reborn parents of these two children. If they can grow up safely, I will definitely ask them to repay you!"
Lin Xuan expressed her endless gratitude to Qian Yan with a voice that was trembling with excitement, almost kowtow to Qian Yan.
Qian Yan had never encountered such a scene, and she didn't expect Lin Xuan to be so excited. She blushed and could only help Lin Xuan get up quickly.
Lin Yan asked Lin Xuan to take the two children back to take care of them quickly, and she would not be asked to help with outside matters in the past few days.
Lin Xuan didn't refuse anymore. After all, the two children were still young and really needed someone's care.
"Bang bang bang!"
"Bang bang bang!"
Lin Xuan had just returned with her two children when the door outside the door rang just right.
Gu Peihuai stepped forward and opened the door. The girl outside the door was stunned and her face was a little red.
Gu Peihuai's face is indeed outstanding, and his body is still strong in this apocalyptic world, which is in sharp contrast to most people. It is normal to attract a few peach blossoms.
Naturally, several people inside saw this scene, but they didn't interrupt, they all waited for the girl's next words.
"I"
Gu Peihuai stepped aside slightly, revealing the people inside. Everyone's eyes were fixed on Gu Peihuai and the girl at the door.
At the same time, the girl's full face was completely exposed.
It was the girl who came up to report the news to Qian Yan and the others that day.
"them."
"Speak slowly."
Maybe it was because he had just climbed several floors that he was a little out of breath when he spoke, so Lin Yan spoke to the girl.
"They. The real estate agent said that they have medicine, but you need a bag of grain to exchange for one medicine. Otherwise, you will join their mutual aid group. If anyone here is sick, go and have a look."
"You said the property has medicine?"
Qian Yan was a little surprised. It was not surprising that they had medicine. What was strange was that they actually had such a huge amount of medicine. The property's medicine was only obtained from the government's rescue, and this kind of anti-insect medicine was by no means a large amount of materials included in it. , so where do they get their advantage?
"Yes! They have medicine there. You should go quickly. If you go too late, there will be no medicine."
"Then I'll go take a look and bring back some."
Cheng Guang said.
