Zombie Crisis: Survival comes first

Chapter 424 The function of hair

It is no exaggeration to say that Xiao Jiu was born to be a soldier. Unfortunately, his last action was too tragic and others almost died in the sea. He had no choice but to retire after recovering from his injuries.

If the end of the world hadn't come, Xiao Jiu would still be able to develop better even if he changed his career based on his previous achievements as a soldier.

......

After searching for a long time in the room on the second floor, Xiao Jiu finally found the target item in the drawer beside the bed.

It's a small iron box, with some rust on the outside.

When I opened it, there happened to be an embroidery needle lying inside. I don't know if it was because of frequent use. There was also a lot of rust on it.

But this was just a small problem, and he would get rid of it later. Then Xiao Jiu continued to look for the thread spool, but after searching for a long time, he couldn't even see a shadow.

And as he walked back and forth, the thumping sound under his feet also made Xiao Jiu feel a little uneasy. He was afraid that the second floor would collapse.

Because the floor of this kind of room is not made of reinforced concrete like in the city.

On the contrary, they just used wooden boards laid horizontally on the beams. If it is based on human habitation, there will be no problem even if it lasts for decades.

But the key situation is that no one lives here. Over time, it loses popularity. In addition, it is an earth structure, rainwater intrudes, and the wood rots. Over time, it will look shaky.

This is why many houses in rural areas will collapse soon after no one lives in them.

After Xiao Jiu searched around and found nothing, he was about to leave from the window. His feet had just stepped on a piece of floor, and then he heard a click, and his whole body suddenly lost his balance and fell downwards...

Thanks to his high alertness and unusual physical fitness, at this moment, Xiao Jiu quickly pulled out the dagger with his right hand, and then plunged it directly into the pillar under the window.

With a sneer, sawdust flew out, and the dagger was firmly stuck inside. Xiao Jiu grabbed it with one hand, glanced at the corpse below, and clicked his tongue.

"If he had fallen into carrion, he might not have died on the spot."

As soon as he finished speaking, he exerted force with his right hand, grabbed the lower edge of the window with his left hand, and quickly climbed up.

The height here is not fatal, and falling into a pile of zombie flesh is not that scary, as long as there are no wounds on the skin and blood does not enter the mouth and nose.

What Xiao Jiuhou was afraid of was that when the wooden boards fell, a lot of fine wood residue appeared, mixed with the zombie meat. If he accidentally cut his skin, he would be basically dead.

Without staying too long, he patted the dust on his body and returned to the courtyard where everyone rested.

"I couldn't find the thread, only one needle at most." Xiao Jiu handed the iron box to Lin Yi.

"It's okay, this is enough." Lin Yi took it and said gratefully to him: "Are you okay? I see there is some dust on your clothes."

Xiao Jiu shook his head and walked to Dazhuang to warm himself by the fire.

Xiao Ning watched Lin Yi take the needle back, frowned and asked, "Do I need to remove the threads on my clothes next?"

Lin Yi was currently scraping the rust off the needle with a clean dagger. When he heard this, he raised his head and said in shock: "Of course I won't remove it!"

"But there are no stitches to sew the wound, and I can't find any other replacement..."

Hearing this, Lin Yi suddenly realized. Then she remembered that Xiao Ning had never majored in medicine, and she had forgotten about it.

So she smiled and explained: "Hair is a ready-made thread. If you have professional round needles and angle needles, and use a magnifying glass, you can also use it to sew blood vessels."

"Of course, the hair must be disinfected." After saying that, Lin Yi handed the knife to Xiao Ning and asked her to cut off a few long hairs from her head.

Soon the rust on the needle had been cleaned. Lin Yi put it into the fire to burn it red, and asked Dazhuang to help bend it with the back of a knife.

Then he threw the hair into a bottle of iodine and soaked it for a while. He then carefully passed the cooled needle through it and began to sew Chen Yu's two largest wounds.

They are on the right shoulder and the upper left area of ​​the back.

There was no anesthetic, and Chen Yu woke up midway, but his face was pale and he couldn't say a few words.

When he saw Lin Yi squatting in front of him, he subconsciously wanted to raise his hand.

Lin Yi also looked at him and nodded slightly.

Time passed quickly and night began to fall. Everyone was sitting on the ground in the courtyard, huddled around each other.

There is a house inside, but it is really dusty. If you clean it, you will inevitably get dust everywhere. Although you can sprinkle some water to clean it, it is not necessary. Everyone still chooses to spend the night outside first.

Not long after Chen Yu woke up, he fell asleep again and moved the stretcher slightly closer to the fire. Lin Yi covered him with his coat and sat next to his head.

In this way, if there is any movement, Lin Yi can detect it immediately.

"How is he?" Xiao Jiu handed the small bowl of bird soup to Lin Yi and asked.

"Thank you." Lin Yi took it with both hands, holding the steaming bowl, and replied: "My life has been saved, and antibiotics are available. There is no need to worry about infection in the future. It will be a long recovery time anyway... "

She actually didn't have much appetite to eat now, but if she didn't eat, her body wouldn't be able to bear it, so she had to eat the soup and meat.

Only a little salt was added, and the taste was a bit awkward, but fortunately there was food in the stomach, and people felt much better.

Then she handed the bowl to Xiao Jiu, who took it, scooped out some more soup and passed it to Yang Zi.

"It gets dark early, and there's still food cooking in the pot. We can go find some bowls tomorrow and disinfect them with boiling water. Then everyone won't have to share a bowl."

Xiao Kong was eating grilled chicken wings slowly. When he heard this, he hesitated and asked, "How long are we going to stay here?"

Hearing this, Lin Yi took the lead in explaining: "It will take at least a week. Chen Yu's injury cannot support long-distance movement, so he needs to recover for at least a while."

After she finished speaking, Dazhuang also handed the baked food to his younger sister first, and then said softly: "It's too cold outside, and there is just a place here to rest. Since we have to stay for a few more days, let's move the house tomorrow Just clean it up and move in. All you need to do is find a way to solve the food problem."

"This is easy to handle." Xiao Jiu took out two pieces of wood from the stove to prevent the pot from being burned dry by too much fire. He also said, "I will make an extra bow. Tomorrow, I will meet Brother Dazhuang and this guy. ....."

"His name is Hong Wu." Seeing this, Lao Cheng introduced him again.

"Well, the three of us will go hunting for birds tomorrow. Food shouldn't be difficult. This place is inaccessible. No one comes here. There may be other animals." Xiao Jiu touched his bald head and said softly.
