Survival [End Times]

As if overnight, the temperature rose.

In the middle of the night, Yu Heng had a nightmare, dreaming that he was swimming in the lava. It was really hot and humid, and he couldn't swim. I woke up suddenly, sweating profusely, and the cotton pajamas on my body were soaked with sweat. He took off his pajamas and purred his sweaty hair, "It's only March, what the hell kind of weather is this!"

Even the air was hot, and it felt as if there were flames pulsing between breaths.

This is not right.

Yu Heng jumped up and went to his parents' room. The old couple didn't lock the door while they were sleeping. After he went in, he found that the old couple were sweating all over their heads in their sleep, and his mother even groaned in pain. Yu Heng was frightened and shouted to someone quickly.

"Dad! How do you feel?" Yu Aiguo opened his eyes just a slit, and through his sweaty eyelashes, he dimly saw his son's enlarged face. His mouth seemed to be moving, but there was a buzzing in his ears, and he couldn't hear it at all. Can't hear clearly.

"Dad!" Yu Heng saw that Yu Aiguo had fainted, but his mother didn't move at all. He stretched out his hand and touched their foreheads. Their foreheads were very hot. He immediately called an ambulance.

"Our hospital's ambulances have been dispatched! If the condition is urgent, please drive the patient yourself!" There was a mess on the other end of the phone.

Yu Heng didn't dare to delay, so he quickly packed up his wallet, keys, medical insurance card, and a bag of clothes, and carried his parents downstairs.

When he was carrying his mother downstairs, Cui Nan next door opened the door and asked him: "Do you need help?" Without waiting for Yu Heng to answer, he stretched out his long hand to hug Yu's mother and went straight downstairs.

"Hey, thank you, Brother Cui. Why are you awake in the middle of the night? You were also woken up by the heat, right? You said this weather is so weird!" Yu Hengkong wiped the sweat from his forehead and followed him downstairs. , still nagging in his mouth. This is a habit. He talks a lot when he is nervous. He is only twenty-two years old and has not experienced many things. He was really scared just now. Now that Cui Nan appeared, he realized that he was free and nervous, and he couldn't stop talking.

"Yes." Cui Nan sat in the driver's seat, "Please support my uncle and aunt."

Needless to say, Cui Nan said that Yu Heng's father on his left hand and his mother on his right hand held him tightly, preventing them from touching each other. "What's wrong? Why is it so hot? My mother is too lazy to move, and my father exercises a lot and is strong. Why is he sick?"

Cui Nan saw in the mirror that Yu Heng was rubbing his head against his parents' foreheads one by one, and said, "You and I can't stand this temperature, let alone my uncle and aunt. Okay, you have to turn the corner and sit down." "

Within five minutes, the nearest district hospital arrived.

The hospital is really crowded, you know, it's only two o'clock in the middle of the night. After a lot of work, the condition of the two old people finally stabilized. Yu Heng breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the edge of the bed looking at the bottle.

"Brother Cui, what are you looking at?"

Cui Nan was sitting on the other side, and Yu Heng leaned over and looked at him: "This is really pitiful." Feeling a little concerned, he turned around and touched his parents' foreheads. It's not hot, so I feel at ease.

The mobile phone page is a local forum, and there is a post about building buildings extremely high, all talking about the extremely high temperature tonight. One of the people replied that an old lady from next door went to the house in the middle of the night. It was also because the children at home were careless. They woke up in the middle of the night because of the heat and didn't want to see the old man. When they just arrived at work, no one made breakfast at home and they realized that the old lady hadn't gotten up yet. When I opened the door, I saw that the old lady's body was starting to stink due to the high temperature.

This news is sad to watch.

Cui Nan flipped through other web pages, and found that the situation was similar across the country. At 9 o'clock in the morning, the relevant departments issued an announcement saying that this was a major outbreak of environmental pollution, and instructed health institutions across the country to activate emergency plan mechanisms to deal with the medical tension caused by this high temperature outbreak. Finally, we called on residents to take precautions and pay attention to the elderly and children at home.

"The greenhouse effect takes several years, but it has risen by 20 degrees overnight!" Yu Heng read the news and disapproved of it. He was watching the thermometer today. The highest temperature outside was 40 degrees Celsius! You must know that the highest temperature yesterday was only 19 degrees Celsius. He went out to buy food at noon and was almost roasted.

"Yu Heng, look at the sun today, it's not dazzling. The weather report says it's still cloudy today." Cui Nan continued. "I'm going home first, I still have things to do."

"Hey! That's right, Brother Cui, please go back first. I'm sorry to trouble you."

"Call me if you need anything."

Watching Cui Nan leave, Yu Heng turned around and sat by the bed. He suddenly remembered that he hadn't asked for leave from his work unit yet, so he quickly made a phone call.

At night, Father Yu had already gotten up to drink some porridge. "Is your mother okay? Why aren't you awake yet?" He reached out to touch his wife and pulled the hanging needle in his hand.

"Don't move! Dad, don't move yet. I'll do it!" Yu Heng moved the stool away, dragged Yu's father's hospital bed over, and put it together with Yu's mother's.

"Why is it still hot?"

"The doctor said that my mother's body was a little weak, which is why the condition kept coming back and forth, but it's okay. She will be completely relieved every morning at the latest."

Father Yu nodded, patted his wife's hand, turned to ask Yu Heng, "Aren't you going to work?"

"Where are you in the mood to go? I'll go after you two are discharged from the hospital."

"Go ahead! I'll watch your mother."

"No. Don't stare. Look at your hands, they are still shaking. How can I rest assured? I almost drank the porridge and it's almost cold." After Yu's father drank the porridge, he felt sleepy and fell asleep again.

In the evening, Yu's mother woke up, but she was still very weak. Father Yu's body is really strong. After a good sleep, he wakes up feeling much more relaxed.

"He has recovered quite well. The old man is strong now. He doesn't need injections anymore, but it's better to go to the TCM department of our hospital to get some tonic medicine to cook. This time, he should have hurt his vitality."

After hearing the doctor's words, Yu Heng nodded hurriedly: "Thank you, I'll go to the TCM department later."

"You're welcome. By the way, the hospital is short of beds and it's been busy recently. It's not suitable for recuperation. Do you think you should take your father home?"

Yu Heng knew that the doctor was speaking tactfully. This hospital was not only busy, but a group of patients came in this evening. They said they had skin diseases. He took a look when he came back from buying food. It was really scary. And his father was always worried about his mother and couldn't calm down to recuperate.

He thought about it and called Cui Nan, hoping that Cui Nan could go to his house to help take care of Yu's father.

"... You don't have to do anything, just be prepared for him if something happens and no one takes care of him. My dad can go to the toilet by himself. I will bring food back when it's time for dinner, so you don't have to cook... Hey! Thank you, Brother Cui!"

I heard from Yu's mother that Cui Nan is a jewelry designer, affiliated with a studio, and usually works from home. He also knows that this will disturb his work thinking, but it will only take one day at most. If Yu's mother's condition is good, she can be discharged the day after tomorrow. He will treat him to a meal later to thank him very much.

As expected, Yu's father refused to leave, so Yu Heng coaxed him: "The doctor said that beds are in short supply, so we have to make room for others, for those who need beds more, right? Isn't this what you taught me, to be helpful?" Seeing that Yu's father's face relaxed, he said again: "I will send you home tomorrow, you sleep well, I will bring you food and medicine on time, and your mother will be home the day after tomorrow, so you will have the strength to take care of her, right? I still have to go to work, and I still have to rely on our comrade Yu Aiguo, you have to take care of your body first."

"You little brat, you know how to take care of people?"

"You underestimated me, didn't you? Don't worry, Dad!"

After sending Yu's father home, Yu Heng felt relieved. As a commoner, he was a little timid to go to the hospital. When his father came home, he felt that people were healthy and at ease.

A child with skin disease moved into the ward, and Yu Heng saw him as soon as he entered the door and was startled. Seeing that his mother was still sleeping, he quickly and quietly pulled the curtain to prevent his mother from seeing and being scared.

"Bao'er is back?" Yu's mother opened her eyes.

"Hey! Mom, are you hungry? I bought lean meat porridge today. Do you want to eat now?" Yu's mother nodded.

Yu Heng quickly got hot water for his mother to wipe her face and rinse her mouth.

"You did a good job. It's right to let your dad go home. There is no place better than home in the hospital?"

"It's just that I troubled Brother Cui, Mom. I have to thank him later. He is so kind that he agreed to help without saying a word."

Yu's mother smiled: "He is a good child. I will thank him later."

"I was thinking about inviting him to dinner! How about going to the Grand Hyatt?"

Yu's mother patted his hand gently: "Just your crappy salary? Is it enough for a meal?"

Yu Heng went over to rub: "That's not enough, doesn't my mother have it? Mom~"

After a mess, Yu's mother finished her breakfast with a smile.

"Let's go out for a walk. Your waist hurts from lying down."

Yu Heng agreed, blocked Yu's mother's sight and helped him out for a walk.

When I came back, the child in the next bed had been covered with medicine, and looked green. But it was good to be green to cover those creepy pimples.

"What happened?"

"Hey! He said it was allergic! There were pimples all over his body, but fortunately, the child didn't say it hurt or itched." Yu's mother chatted with the child's mother.

"What did the doctor say?"

"The doctor said that it should be rubbed by some insects. The child is weak and has a strong reaction, so he has a lot of pimples. But it's not a big deal, it will be fine after it subsides."

"That's good, when the child is better, you have to watch him and don't run around. The insects are poisonous now." Yu's mother said, looking at Yu Heng worriedly, Yu Heng grinned: "Mom, I'm not a child, I won't run into the grass to play, don't worry."

"How dare I let him go out to play? The temperature outside can cause heatstroke!"

At noon, Yu Heng went to deliver food to his father first, bringing the Chinese medicine soup boiled by the hospital.

"Just buy it, Brother Cui, just eat it."

Cui Nan canceled the takeaway order: "Thank you, I won't need it tonight."

"Of course I will... Where's my dad?"

"He's watching a movie in your room. I prescribed it for him."

Yu Heng walked in and greeted his dad: "Dad, it's time to eat. I still have medicine to take."

"I'm here. How's your mom?"

"She's fine. She's chatting with the aunt next door. Didn't they talk on the phone this morning? Don't worry, I'll pick her up tomorrow."
