Reborn in the end of the world, I scavenged in the empty city and bought for free

Gu Tongwan had never thought that saving people would be so difficult, perhaps because she knew very well in her heart that she was not 100% sure, no, or not even half sure.

She didn't know why she said on impulse that she wanted to save Fang Zeqiang's wife. Maybe it was just that when she heard the crying of the baby, a little light shone into a dark and damp place in her heart.

She was born an abandoned baby, and she just couldn't bear to see another motherless child in the world.

While others were getting the delivery tools, she took out the acupuncture kit and a bottle of spiritual spring water from her backpack.

After pouring out the brown sugar water on the bedside and replacing it with spiritual spring water, he picked up the needle. At this time, his fingers were trembling slightly. He finally suppressed the tension and fear in his heart, held his breath, and regardless of the sweat on his forehead that seeped through his entire clothes, he finally inserted the first needle.

Liu Jinhua was holding a basin of hot water, as well as a lot of hemostatic bandages and clean towels. She closed the door and blocked anyone from coming in. She knew very well that it would be best to provide Gu Tongwan with a relatively quiet environment for acupuncture.

In the yard, Fang Zeqiang squatted on the ground holding his head, trying hard to suppress the urge to cry. His eyes were fixed on the closed room in front of him. He had never felt so scared as he did now because of the impending loss of someone.

He met his wife through a blind date in a small restaurant in the county town. He was 29 years old at the time and had been working in the city for the past few years. He had a girlfriend, but the girl's family disliked him because he was a country boy and did not agree. After the breakup, he returned to his hometown to farm and sell fruit with his parents. Later, he tried blind dating through an introduction.

At first, he didn't have much hope. After all, he knew that his conditions were just so-so. He heard that the girl had a house in the county town and worked in the county supply and marketing cooperative. He thought that they would just meet and have a meal and that would be the end of the story. But when they met for the first time, Fang Zeqiang was still attracted by the girl in a white dress, with a simple ponytail, and who looked gentle. After getting to know each other, the two found that they had many similar hobbies. For example, their favorite fruit was peaches, they liked the mountain air in the morning the most, and they even liked playing mahjong...

The two of them confirmed their relationship within a month, and getting married and having children were all natural things. Just two days ago, she was sweating in the house with her big belly, and she was busy knitting a sweater for the child. She said the blue one could be worn by both boys and girls, just in case the weather suddenly got cold next time.

Looking at his wife's serene face at that time, Fang Zeqiang felt that it didn't matter even if the world was ending, as long as the family could be together.

But who would have thought that his wife would be lying on that bed due to postpartum hemorrhage.

It only takes a moment for an adult to collapse, and Fang Zeqiang's heart gradually sank.

Inside the house, Gu Tongwan lifted the back of Fang Zeqiang's wife's neck and wanted to pour the whole bowl of spiritual spring water into her, but after trying several times, he failed.

She was furious and simply lowered her head. Regardless of whether she was still conscious, she whispered in her ear, "You don't want to abandon your husband and daughter and die like this, do you? You took so much effort and risk to give birth to this child. If you really leave like this, in three to five years, there will be another woman to take your place. By then, it's still a question whether the stepmother can love your daughter. What if your daughter is wronged? Can you swallow this breath?"

Liu Jinhua didn't know what Gu Tongwan was doing. She only saw that she seemed to be whispering to the person on the bed, but her voice was too soft. But when she saw Gu Tongwan finish those words, the fingers of Fang Zeqiang's wife's right hand hanging at her side curled slightly, which made her let out an exclamation of disbelief.

"Wanwan, there's a reaction!"

Gu Tong bit his cheek hard and pried open Fang Zeqiang's wife's mouth, pouring the spiritual spring water in again. This time the people below reacted, like fish drawing water, drinking it mouthful by mouthful.

Although nearly half of the spiritual spring water was wasted, at least some of it was injected.

Gu Tongwan applied acupuncture on several key acupoints. By the time the acupuncture was finished, no one knew how much time had passed.

Until then, Liu Jinhua's crying voice was heard from the side.

"The bleeding has stopped. It's not flowing any more..."

Perhaps it was Fang Zeqiang's wife's tenacious willpower that allowed her to persevere, or perhaps it was the spiritual spring water that kept her alive, coupled with the acupuncture, the person who had fainted had her tightly closed eyelids trembling, her eyelashes fluttering, and finally opened her eyes, stammering with her pale lips: "Thank you..." In fact, she had been conscious all the time, but she was unable to open her eyes before. She just felt terrible pain all over her body, as if she was pulled into a pool of stagnant water, her whole body was gradually wrapped in the cold lake water, until the last moment, she barely grabbed the last duckweed floating on it.

Gu Tongwan opened his lips slightly, moved them, and finally chuckled: "You should thank yourself, it's you who chose to continue living."

When Gu Tongwan came out of the bedroom, he found that he was extremely dirty and covered in blood.

Fang Zeqiang rushed in holding his daughter to reunite with his wife who had just woken up. Outside, Fang Daguo and Liang Cui'e bowed to their benefactor with red eyes, which frightened Gu Tongwan a little. The other party was an old teacher who was almost sixty years old. How could she bear it? So she hurried forward to stop them.

"Ms. Gu, you are our Fang family's benefactor. If you have any questions in the future, please feel free to ask. We will remember this favor."

Gu Tongwan smiled faintly, "We are all from the same village in the future, we are all neighbors, and we will definitely help if we can."

The Fang family members were touched and stopped saying any more sentimental words.

On the way back, Liu Jinhua repeatedly mentioned the scene of Gu Tongwan giving acupuncture in the house, and couldn't help praising her for her good medical skills, saying that she could be a barefoot doctor in the future.

"Aunt, I've only learned a little bit. I can handle minor illnesses, but if it's a serious illness or a complicated disease, it still needs a professional to see it." She was telling the truth. In the situation of Fang Zeqiang's wife, she was just trying to save the situation. In her opinion, the other party's survival depended entirely on herself.

However, Liu Jinhua and the Zhang family did not think so. From then on, in their eyes, Gu Tongwan was a beautiful, kind-hearted person who was capable of practicing medicine.

The next day, people in the village probably knew that Gu Tongwan had saved Fang's daughter-in-law. After all, the village was so small that any news could spread quickly from household to household. Gradually, some people began to seek medical treatment from Gu Tongwan, but she politely declined, saying that she could only give one or two injections, and if there was really a problem, they had to see the village's old Chinese doctor.

Although I politely declined the requests of patients, I would occasionally give them some advice, such as what medicine to take when they return home, or what they need to pay attention to.

Therefore, although the villagers were disappointed, their impression of Gu Tongwan was better.

During these few days, people from the Fang family would bring some potatoes and rice to Gu Tongwan from time to time, and one day they even brought a dozen eggs.

Eggs are a rare commodity now. When the extreme heat first came, many poultry in the village were killed by the heat. Now there are not many poultry left in the house. The Fang family only raises two hens and a goose. The two hens can lay three or four eggs a day. They have saved some during this period. In addition to giving them to Fang Zeqiang's wife to replenish her body during the confinement period, the rest were given to Gu Tongwan.

At this time, Gu Tongwan was decorating her own small apartment. She didn't dare put any extra furniture in the house, but fortunately, she had the basic tables and chairs. She just took out some wall stickers from the space to make the bedroom a little warmer, and also hung curtains in the living room as wall decorations. At first glance, it looked quite realistic.

Now the weather outside has gradually stabilized. Ten in the morning to four in the afternoon is the hottest time of the day. The outdoor temperature can reach almost sixty degrees, and the indoor temperature is nearly forty-two or forty-three degrees. No one is outside during this period because you will get heatstroke if you are exposed to the sun for a while.

The temperature gradually drops after nine o'clock in the evening, and from two in the morning to six in the morning the temperature in the mountains can drop to around thirty-seven or thirty-eight degrees.

Gu Tongwan even went to the blind village doctor's house to ask about it. It was said that there were many medicinal plants on the hill behind Xiaoxi Village, such as castor, aconite and even angelica.

So one day at four o'clock in the morning, Gu Tongwan put on night vision goggles and took Aoao and Tutu up the mountain. As expected, they found many medicinal plants. They had studied various wild medicinal plant illustrations at home some time ago, and they quickly found many that could be used. They also discovered a large area of ​​licorice and astragalus.

However, some plants that are not resistant to high temperatures have withered under the scorching heat, making them meaningless to collect.

She lived peacefully in Xiaoxi Village for more than a month. She went to the back mountain every day, where she occasionally encountered many mutated animals. The most common ones were mutated rabbits and pheasants, but they were all swallowed by Aoao and Tutu Gaga.

This is also a good thing. By going up the mountain once a day, the two dogs' appetite has become so high that they only need to be fed five pounds of meat each every day. After all, they prefer to challenge living prey rather than dead animals.

The plants in the back mountain have been living in peace and harmony, with no signs of mutation. This makes Gu Tongwan wonder if plants cannot mutate under extreme heat, or if the mint he saw that day was just an isolated mutation?

When coming down from the mountain, Gu Tongwan also saw many villagers who went into the mountain to chop firewood around six o'clock. They would greet each other now, but a small number of them were afraid of the two dogs behind her. They were too big and had a wild smell all over their bodies, which made many villagers afraid.

She thought it would be nice to live in peace in Xiaoxi Village, but she didn't expect that someone would set their sights on her.

That day, Gu Tongwan came back from chopping firewood in the back mountain. He had just eaten a cup of iced soy milk and a sandwich that he got from the space when he heard someone knocking on the door.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw Aunt Xu, who lived at the foot of the big banyan tree in the village. She was looking at Gu Tongwan with a smile. The look in her eyes was like looking at a sow that was about to give birth, which made people feel uncomfortable no matter how they looked at her.
