doomed [last days]

Seeing An Lu helping the bruised woman into the house, Shi Yiran looked at Lin Shen with a bit of anger in her eyes: "She..."

Before she finished speaking, Lin Shen understood what she meant, and she said "um", with a serious expression on her face, as if she remembered something bad.There was some anger in her eyes, and she said, "I found them in Hongshan Village."

When Lin Shen was driving back from Hongchi City, he stopped outside Hongshan Village.

The winter wheat in the fields in the country has already turned yellow, and it will be time to harvest in a short time. At that time, she will come down again to harvest some wheat. Not only will there be seeds for the coming year, but also some staple food, even if they can’t grind it into flour by themselves. , It is also possible to rub some wheat kernels by hand.

After entering the village, the first thing I saw was the canteen that looked dilapidated from the outside.Several pieces of newspapers pasted on the windows had fallen off, and the sunlight from outside was pouring in, revealing the dilapidated interior.

There was no trace of food in the canteen. Lin Shen rummaged through the leftovers for a while before finding a bag of corn seeds.Corn is planted at this time, and it can be harvested in a few months.So after finding a bag of corn seeds, Lin Shen didn't go back to the village. Lack of greed will always lead to bad things.

Unexpectedly, just as she stepped out of the canteen, she always felt that she heard some voices.She froze in place for a moment, hesitated in her heart, but when she heard the next shout with anger, she immediately rushed to the source of the sound.

"When I got there, Meng Shurong was protecting Anlu..."

Lin Shen said that she couldn't continue, and Shi Yiran, who had been paying attention to her, immediately took two steps forward.She stretched out her hand to hold Lin Shen's hand. The warm hand was a little colder than hers now.

"Lin Shen..."

Her voice was a little worried, and Lin Shen held her hand back, as if forcing a smile: "I'm fine, let's go and see them."

Hearing what Lin Shen said, Shi Yiran nodded and squeezed her hand tightly.

Originally thought that An Lu had helped him to the bed, but unexpectedly, Meng Shurong was wrapped in Lin Shen's coat and stood awkwardly beside the wooden table.Before they could ask anything, An Lu beside her said, "She, she wants to take a bath..."

The voice was a bit embarrassing, but Shi Yiran was silent for a while, and immediately responded, walked to a place where things were put aside, found a bath towel and a set of clean clothes and trousers.She is a doctor, so she definitely wanted to have Meng Shurong checked first before deciding whether she could take a bath.Just, put yourself in her shoes, if that person was her, how could she tolerate others checking her body at this time.

"The conditions here are a bit rough." Lin Shen walked to the corner and put the bathtub flat on the ground. "There is water on the roof, but it may not be enough. You can take a shower first, and then wash your hair."

She went down the mountain at around ten o'clock today. In order to reassure Shi Yiran, after searching around but failing to find a bathtub, she went to Hongshan Village without wasting time.Therefore, if Meng Shurong wants to take a bath, he still has to use this simple "water heater".

The two people standing by the table kept watching their movements, Anlu's eyes were already red, and she was very different from the naive little girl who stopped the car by the road.

Meng Shurong's hair was messed up, blocking her expression.After she finished listening to what Lin Shen said, she nodded silently, and after a while, a hoarse "thank you" came out of her throat.

No one else was left in the room. While Meng Shurong was taking a bath, Lin Shen and the others retreated to the yard.

Shi Yiran went to the kitchen to boil hot water with an electric kettle and a small electric pot, while Lin Shen lit the fire and put firewood on the hardened clay stove, on which the largest hanging pot was placed.

"Are you going to take a shower later?" Lin Shen asked tentatively. She looked at An Lu, who was a little nervous, with a complicated mood.

When he stopped the car, although Anlu knew how to be prepared, he had never seen the ugliness of human nature with his own eyes.But now Anlu, after experiencing the events of the day, is much more reticent.It's pretty good to be able to drive the pickup here with her off-road vehicle.

After hearing Lin Shen's question, like a frightened deer, she looked up and said, "No need, boiling water is troublesome, I can wash it tomorrow."

After she finished speaking, she squatted aside and silently passed firewood to Lin Shen.

Seeing this, Lin Shen didn't say anything more.

After a while, she heard An Lu speak again, her voice was as soft as an underfed cub: "I think she, I'm Sister Rong, a storyteller, has been like this for a long time..."

"When I went to that village, I heard a few people talking together, it was hard to hear."

An Lu thought about those foul words, lowered his eyes, but clenched his fists.Lin Shen didn't interrupt her, she just glanced at Shi Yiran who had just walked over, and continued to listen to An Lu.

Like Lin Shen, Anlu parked her pickup truck in a small forest outside the village. As soon as she entered the village entrance, she heard a sound from the canteen next door.

Those men should have come here to look for food, but they still didn't forget to discuss the women locked up by them and said some nasty words.

"When they left, I quietly followed."

Young people are reckless after all, when Anlu heard the lewd|laughter in the room, Anlu trembled with anger, turned over the wall, picked up her baseball bat and kicked open the door.However, after witnessing the scene with his own eyes, An Lu who was stunned for a moment only had time to give the man closest to her a stick before he was restrained.

It was like a lamb fell into a cave full of tigers. Compared with the embarrassed Meng Shurong, her weak and innocent appearance obviously aroused the crooked thoughts of the group of animals.However, no one expected that when he saw those dirty hands reaching out to Anlu, Meng Shurong, who had been lifeless, rushed over like crazy, and firmly guarded Anlu behind him.Anlu didn't know where she got the strength to fight those men, but they finally waited until Lin Shen.

After being hurt, some people turn from victims to perpetrators for themselves.

But Meng Shurong didn't.

After listening to her, both Lin Shen and Shi Yiran remained silent.

The water in the hanging pot on the stove had already begun to boil, but the steaming heat seemed to be steaming the hearts of all of them.

No one spoke until the door was pushed open from the inside.

Meng Shurong, who had taken a shower, seemed to be full of steam, and walked out wearing the bath towel that Shi Yiran gave her. After seeing the three people by the earthen stove turned their heads to look over at the same time, she said in a hoarse voice: "The tub inside is I can't move because of the water."

If it wasn't hoarse, her voice should still be nice.

Hearing her seemingly emotionless tone, Lin Shen responded, and said, "I'll just move."

She got up and walked straight to the main house.

Shi Yiran also stepped forward and said, "Let's go back to the house. I was a doctor before. Let me help you look at your arm."

Said it was an arm, but in fact, she still wanted to help Meng Shurong check his body.She thought she would have to talk for a while before she could persuade Meng Shurong to go back to the house with her, but she didn't expect that after she finished speaking, Meng Shurong nodded and walked back first.

When Lin Shen came out with the bathtub, he saw Anlu standing alone in the yard.

She poured water at the base of the wall, took the tub and swiped it under the faucet, and when she was walking back, she suddenly stopped beside Anlu and said a word.

Seeing her back without stopping any further, Anlu sniffed vigorously, rubbed his face with bent arms, and followed Lin Shen's pace.She was right, how could she be disappointed in this society, she still has a savior to repay.

There is no instrument here, Shi Yiran can only make a brief judgment based on years of experience.Meng Shurong was trapped for more than half a month. It is normal for her to not have enough food and have little strength.But there are too many traumas on her body, which must be dealt with.Fortunately, she and Lin Shen brought a lot of medicine over.

After dealing with it, Meng Shurong just put on his clothes in silence, but he still didn't give up his desire to wash his hair.

Before Shi Yiran could say anything, Anlu followed quickly, wanting to wash Meng Shurong's hair.The other party just took a look at her and acquiesced.

There are two people in the yard, one is sitting quietly, poking his head forward, the other is carefully mixing water, and then pouring it on the other's long hair that looks like withered grass.

Shi Yiran stood in the distance and looked at the part of Meng Shurong's exposed neck. It was abnormally red. I don't know whether it was because of the sunset in the sky or when she was taking a bath...

She didn't say much, just sighed in her heart, and helped Lin Shen cook dinner together.

There are more people, and the amount of dinner is also more.Shi Yiran stewed pork with sun-dried mountain carrots, while Lin Shen went to pick a handful of Chinese toon before it was completely dark.I didn't have time to cook the rice, so I heated up four cans of eight-treasure porridge, and dinner was considered ready.

Meng Shurong hadn't had a normal meal for a long time, Shi Yiran didn't dare to let her eat pork, so she asked Anlu to fill her with some broth and a few pieces of carrots.Meng Shurong thanked him, then took it with a sullen head.

After dinner and packing the supplies from the Anlu truck into the house, we had to discuss the issue of sleeping.

The forest ranger station only has one main house and one kitchen, so there is no problem sleeping four people, the problem is who sleeps on the bed and who sleeps on the floor.

Lin Shen and Shi Yiran both thought that they were sleeping on the ground and let Meng Shurong sleep on the bed.But I didn't expect that the person who didn't talk much all the time would not agree with anything.Seeing that she disagreed, Anlu also disagreed, saying that she had brought a quilt in the car and just spread a few more layers on the ground.

They were so stubborn that Lin Shen had no choice but to agree, but he didn't let them sleep on the ground.She took out the tent she had found before, and said, "I'll lay a moisture-proof mat on the ground first and prop up the tent. You can sleep in the tent to avoid any insects and snakes on the ground."

An apartment in the city is no match in the mountains, even if the house is covered with limestone, such worries are inevitable.

But as soon as she opened the moisture-proof mat, she heard Meng Shurong say, "The two of us should sleep in the kitchen."

There is indeed room for a camping tent in the main house, but it would be too crowded.And everyone has their own private land, Meng Shurong glanced at the two pillows on the single bed, and made a decision in his heart.

In the end, Lin Shen helped them prop up the tent in the kitchen.For so many days, they haven't used the stove in the kitchen, but the kitchen can still be lived in.

After everything was packed, Lin Shen checked the kitchen door and the iron door outside to make sure there was nothing wrong, and then returned to the main house.

After turning off the lights, she slipped into Shi Yiran's arms without saying a word, and buried her in her soft place.Shi Yiran didn't have any other thoughts, but just stroked Lin Shen's hair again and again.

Her hair is already a little long, and she can tie a small knot at the back of her head.

It might be that her movements were too gentle, after a while, the person in her arms said in a muffled voice: "Yiran."

"Well, I'm here."

"..." Lin Shen was silent for a moment, his voice trembling, "I may have killed|killed someone."

After she rushed over, she didn't know what was going on, her reason collapsed first, and her body was instantly controlled by anger. She didn't froze until she looked at the man lying on the ground, twitching and howling, clutching his chest.

Zombies are all killed by one blow, and there is no such reaction at all.

Later, she was busy leading people away, driving, dealing with this and that, until now, she was able to release the emotions that were suppressed in her heart.

She couldn't tell whether it was fear or indifference or indifference.

Shi Yiran, who was holding her, only quietly rubbed her neck, and said, "It's okay, they are animals, not humans."
