() "Wow" a child's cry came from the camp next door.
"What's wrong, Wenwen, why are you crying?" A slightly sharp voice asked anxiously, it should be the child's mother.
"It's so itchy here, it hurts so much...wow" the child said sobbingly, then started crying again.
"Let me see, it's okay, Wenwen. It's just a small pimple. Stop scratching it. The more you scratch it, the more itchy it becomes. You must have been bitten by something." The child's mother coaxed with some distress.
However, it was of no use. The more the mother coaxed, the harder the child cried. Some people in the car were ready to go to sleep and were upset by the child's cry. Some people cursed and criticized, and some people deliberately tore things. It makes a tingling sound.
"Who has anti-inflammatory and anti-itching ointment? Let us use it!" The child's mother saw that the small pimple on the child's arm turned into a big pimple in the blink of an eye. It was swollen red and bright, and the roots and feet were still hard. Unable to hold back his anger, he shouted to his companions in the car.
There was silence in the carriage.
"Don't you have Xiaoyuan there? I just saw you using it. Why don't you feel sorry for the child when you see him in such pain? You are so cruel." The person who spoke was Wenwen's mother's neighbor Bian Cuiping. They had a close relationship before the apocalypse. They got along well, and later they entered the security area with the army, and they always supported each other. Bian Cuiping's voice was acrimonious.
"I'm not the only one who brought anti-itch ointment. I only have a little ointment left. I don't have enough. You can ask others!" This was the voice of a little girl, with a small voice and a high pitch. There is a hint of weakness and cowardice in it.
"How old are you, what does it matter if you are bitten twice? Wenwen is only less than seven years old. The child's skin is so delicate that she can't bear it. She cries and makes a lot of noise, and everyone can't sleep well. You'd better put your ointment on it. Give it to Wenwen!" Another person said in a very strong scolding tone.
"That's it! Take it out quickly!" Bian Cuiping heard someone's support, like a shot of chicken blood, and there was a hint of excitement in the urging voice.
"You won't take it, right?" Seeing the girl's motionless and silent resistance, Bian Cuiping asked fiercely.
"What are you doing? Don't go through my bag." This was the scared and aggrieved voice of the girl named Xiaoyuan.
"Pah!" the backpack fell to the ground, and the girl let out a soft, suppressed sob, "Don't grab it, I'll give it to you."
The backpack was thrown to the ground, the things were scattered out, and the screen of the small and exquisite pink mobile phone was smashed. The girl burst into tears with distress. She silently picked up the mobile phone, which contained her last thoughts about her relatives.
Although her phone has no power and signal now, it contains photos of her, her parents, and her brother, as well as the contact address her brother sent her before the apocalypse. When she arrives in An District, Jingcheng, if the power is likely to be restored, she can charge her phone. After powering on, photos and other things should be restored.
Xiaoyuan put the scattered things into her bag and struggled to protect her backpack. The backpack was very small and could not hold much in it. They were all the little girl's daily necessities. After hearing the girl's compromise, Wenwen's mother grabbed the bag. and Bian Cuiping, they looked at each other and smiled, and snorted with both contempt and pride, "It's enough if it's like this earlier. If you don't listen to my advice, you are selfish and have no love at all."
Everyone else in the carriage watched silently, some turned their heads and went to sleep on their own, some were smiling, not knowing who was watching the excitement, but deep in their eyes everyone had the same cold and indifferent look.
Xiaoyuan silently took out a small ointment from her bag and held it tightly in her hand. She has a body that easily attracts mosquitoes. She carries anti-itch ointment with her every summer. This ointment cannot be bought in a drugstore. When she arrived, her brother asked someone to arrange it specially for her.
You don't need to think about it to know that if you lend it out, you won't be able to get it back.
Xiaoyuan was feeling uncomfortable, and Wenwen's mother snatched the ointment away. Her sharp nails scratched three bloody marks on the back of the girl's hand, which looked cold and ferocious against the girl's flawless white skin.
The girl resisted the tears welling up in her eyes and tried her best to hold back the tears that came up.
There is no one here who cares about her. Crying and making noise are just making others laugh.
The child who had applied the ointment gradually became quiet. Xiaoyuan looked at the newly bitten red pimple on her ankle and gritted her teeth stubbornly to bear the pain. She was alone, and the others either had to support their families or formed gangs. Wenwen's father and Bian Cuiping's husband are still the main team members of the team. What else can they do if they can't bear it?
Rong Xianxian just happened to overhear their conversation while investigating the cause of the commotion in the civilian team. The car stayed in the center of the motorcade. It was filled with women and children, who were responsible for logistics in the team. It has been relatively well protected.
Although the girl was alone and weak, she was inevitably aggrieved, but at least she was protected.
Rong Xianxian sighed in her heart, swallowing her anger and blindly compromising sometimes could not bring her the peace she wanted, but would only make people push further.
I hope the girl is just tolerating it temporarily and is not a coward by nature.
"Most of the crying and noisy places are because people don't know what they were bitten by. Both adults and children, especially the children, cry a lot." Cui Lie just walked around the campsites. Hui returned to Rong Xianxian and said softly.
"In the summer, flies and mosquitoes are inevitable, especially in the wild. They are hard to guard against." Although Rong Xianxian is equipped with mosquito repellent medicine, the medicine is precious. It not only repels mosquitoes, but also is effective against poisonous snakes, ants, scorpions, spiders and the like in the woods. Insect poisons have a repellent effect.
Even because of the addition of mutated spiritual plants, it has the effect of removing evil spirits, refreshing the brain and refreshing the mind.
The medicinal materials are precious and cannot be distributed to so many people. She does not want to draw too much attention to others. Mosquito bites are just a little uncomfortable and a punishment. After the end of the world, the spiritual energy will be revived. Even ordinary people who do not know how to practice will have poor physical fitness. It's much better than before, nothing serious will happen.
Rong Xianxian and Cui Lie returned to the RV. Wang Lin had already pulled out the folding bed. There were four bunk beds on both sides.
Wang Lin, Xuanxuan, and Xiao Luo were lying on the lower bunk on the left side. Wang Lin was holding a storybook in his hand and was telling them a story.
Although summer is approaching and the temperature has risen significantly, the cool breeze blows at night and the temperature inside the car is comfortable.
The two children yawned while listening to the story. When they saw Rong Xianxian getting in the car, Xuanxuan got up on the bed and ran over quickly to hug Rong Xianxian and act coquettishly.
Jiang Jie had just finished checking the trap, practiced with Wang Qirui for a while, and ran in sweating profusely.
"Sister Rong, I have checked all the traps and traps set up, and all the transmission symbols have been posted. Is there anything else that needs attention?" Jiang Jie asked, panting slightly.
