"Why are there less today!?" Lu Qing looked at the young man with an angry face, and the figure of a doctor appeared on his body from time to time.
Yesterday, it was okay to reduce a portion, but today's food is even more excessive, almost half of the original size. We need to distribute the food evenly among the patients, fearing that each person can only take one bite.
"I, I, why are you shouting so loudly? I'm not the one distributing the food!" The young man was startled by Lu Qing and stuttered twice.
He looked a little guilty, but Lu Qing, who was in anger, didn't notice this.
The young man was stared at by Lu Qing with an angry look and was unwilling to stay here any longer. He found a reason and left quickly.
"..."
Lu Qing stared at the supplies on the ground, feeling anxious in her heart.
The patients in the basement were desperate enough. As a result, there was even less food today than yesterday. How could she explain this to the patients?
Thinking about this problem, Lu Qing began to clean up the basement.
When she was almost done with the hygiene, she also thought of a solution.
Heat the water not used for sanitary treatment, then pour it into the paste, and stir it evenly with a wooden spoon to dilute the originally thick paste.
Well...actually, you just add water to the food, so that your stomach can at least be filled up in a short period of time, which is better than not being full.
I don't know if this is possible...
When it was time to eat, Lu Qing held a wooden bowl in one hand and a wooden spoon in the other, feeding the patients in the basement as usual.
There weren't too many complaints as expected. Most people just ate their mush quietly and didn't say much.
This eased Lu Qing's anxious mood. Maybe adding water to the food was the right thing to do?
She was not very sure. After today's food distribution was over, Lu Qing returned to her room and continued to tinker with the antidote to the infectious disease.
For the antidote, she actually didn't have much prayer in her heart, but the time now did not allow her to leave the church. She had nothing else to do, so she could only study the antidote.
........
Early the next morning, Lu Qing, who was lying on the wooden table in the dark room, slowly opened her eyes. After a while, she realized that she had fallen asleep on the table last night because she was too tired.
She couldn't help but stretch her body to relieve the stiffness of her body from sitting in a chair all night, and then walked up the stairs and arrived at the church.
As soon as she arrived at the church, Lu Qing saw an unexpected scene.
Two sturdy villagers were seen escorting the young man who had delivered supplies to her before, and a little more supplies than before were placed beside them.
"what happened?"
Lu Qing looked at the scene in front of her in confusion, and a fairly reasonable plot suddenly came up in her mind.
The reason for the decrease in food before was actually that the young man hid some of it secretly. After discovering his behavior, the village punished him and took him here to apologize to himself?
Well, just ask and you will find out what the truth is.
"Excuse me?" Lu Qing looked at the two strong men pressing the young man to the ground and asked doubtfully.
"He secretly hid the mutant at home, causing the mutant to completely mutate. He ran out last night and killed two villagers." After hearing Lu Qing's words, one of the strong men was Lu Qing.
explained.
"The mutated person is his mother. After mutating, he locked her up at home. This is why the supplies sent to you in the past two days were reduced."
"Because there are not many people available in the village now, we did not execute him directly, but sent him to you to help you work."
"Humph, if he dares to be lazy, you can go find the hunting team leader, and we will definitely help you deal with him then."
"Captain of the hunting team, is he the one the old man once said?" Lu Qing suddenly remembered what the old man once told her. Before the Tree God Cult appeared in the village, the strong man who led the village at critical moments
young people.
It seems that during the period when the other party was in charge of the village, the village was still relatively humane.
Lu Qing looked at the young man who was pressed to the ground and the supplies that were more than usual.
After thinking for a while, she looked at the strong man and said, "How is that mutant?"
"We have already killed him, and the body has just been burned." The strong man replied.
"That's right. That's a problem for you two."
After sending the two strong men away, Lu Qing looked at the young man who was still kneeling on the ground. Thinking of what he had experienced in the past few days and his previous resentment towards him, he suddenly said angrily: "Still kneeling there.
What are you doing, why don’t you come over quickly and help me with my work?”
Although she really wanted to beat this young man up, it was a good thing to have an extra helper. Instead of wasting her energy on beating him up, she might as well hurry up and get to work.
Hearing Lu Qing's words, the young man raised his head, stared at her twice, and then...
"Ah wu wu wu..."
The young man actually started crying and fell to his knees on the ground, sobbing without making too much noise.
Lu Qing was stunned for a moment, and then realized that although from her point of view, it was perfectly fine for her to be angry, from a young man's point of view, he was the one whose mother had just died.
From the village's perspective, it was because he failed to report the information about the mutants in time, tried to hide the information about the mutants from the village, and embezzled supplies that were given to the church basement for his own selfish purposes.
He is not someone to be pitied, and Lu Qing is not that great. She can just understand the other person's behavior at this time.
"You can cry slowly by yourself. When you're done crying, come down and help me work." Lu Qing said as she lifted the bucket and walked towards the basement.
After walking for a while, she suddenly stopped, then turned around and said: "Don't think about being lazy, otherwise if I tell the leader of the hunting team, you will be beaten severely. I don't want to have another one."
New patient."
"Wait, wait a minute!"
When the young man heard Lu Qing's words, he quickly wiped away the tears on his face.
He lifted up the water and food that Lu Qing had not taken away, then followed Lu Qing, bowed deeply and said, "I'm sorry!"
"..."
Lu Qing was stunned, and the young man was waiting for her answer with some anxiety.
His mother was dead. He actually knew this when his mother's body mutated, but he just didn't want to accept the reality.
Coupled with the killing of two villagers last night, his heart was filled with guilt.
And since he was assigned to work here, whether it was because of guilt or the hope that Lu Qing could forgive him, in short, the young man apologized very simply.
By the way, mutants are different from those infected with infectious diseases. The infected people are caused by hearing some indescribable sounds at night, which causes physical distortion, while mutants are the same as those animals in the forest.
Mutated into a monster without any sense.
After humans mutate into monsters, their usual manifestations are that their bodies rot to a great extent, and their skin gradually falls off, exposing blood-red flesh and muscles, and their brains split from the middle to grow sharp teeth.
In addition to the mutant, it actually has another name, and that is - the head-splitter!
