"Well..." The businessman lowered his head and looked at the watch on his wrist nonchalantly, and said, "The trading time is over, so I'll leave first."
After saying that, the businessman walked out the door, and when passing by Lu Qing, she whispered: "Good afternoon, sister, I wish you a happy dream..."
"wait........"
Lu Qing's pupils shrank suddenly, and she subconsciously stretched out her hand to grab the merchant's wrist, but her legs suddenly lost the strength and she fell to her knees on the ground.
Hearing the blasphemous sound made Lu Qing's brain confused, and countless gibberish echoed in her ears.
Fortunately, I don't know whether it was because this was an illusion or because her mental attributes had been greatly enhanced, but her spirit returned to normal after being confused for a while.
However, when she came back to her senses, she found that the businessman was no longer in the room.
Looking back, I saw that neither the hunting captain nor the village chief had left. The two of them were sitting on the wooden table, as if discussing something.
After seeing Lu Qing recover, the two of them stopped the discussion with a tacit understanding.
"Ahem, doctor, what are you doing here this time?" the village chief coughed twice.
"I'm here to apply for a batch of blankets. The blankets in the basement are not enough." After hearing the village chief's words, Lu Qing directly stated the purpose of coming here.
In order to prevent the village chief from not agreeing, she added: "It doesn't need to be too much, just half of the last time."
"Okay, I agree." The village chief nodded.
"One more thing." Lu Qing stretched out a finger and said.
"Doctor, the things in the village are not brought by the strong wind. It is not easy for us to provide so many resources now." Hearing that Lu Qing still had something to do, the village chief quickly persuaded him with sincerity.
"No, you misunderstood, I just want to ask you a question." Lu Qing said a little speechlessly.
"Don't ask about that businessman, we don't know much about it," the village chief said again.
"..."
Can you stop talking so fast?
Lu Qing was really speechless. What she wanted to ask was not about the businessman. You know, in terms of understanding of the businessman, she was much better than the village chief. Why would she ask him if she had nothing to do.
As for what the two of them just discussed, she actually heard a little bit about it. Although the content surprised her, it was still expected.
That is about the Tree God Cult. What the village chief and the hunting captain just said is that there have been some rumors about the Tree God Cult in the village recently, saying that the human world will be destroyed by trees, and only those who believe in the Tree God can
Get redemption or something like that.
There are also some unfavorable rumors about the hunting captain, saying that it was precisely because the hunting captain hunted the people of the forest that the tree god became angry and caused the people in the village to contract infectious diseases.
Lu Qing had heard the old man say this before, so he said it was an expected thing.
If nothing unexpected happened, what happened next was that the village chief cooperated with the priests of the Tree God Cult and prepared to sacrifice the hunting captain and his wife to the "sacred tree". As a result, the hunting captain transformed into a werewolf and escaped from here.
After that, she, the doctor, was kicked out.
Thinking of this, Lu Qing no longer wanted to continue dealing with the village chief. After looking at the village chief and the hunting captain meaningfully, she said:
"I just want to ask where the little boy who was sent to my place last time has his sister."
"You mean the little Hasson boy?"
There was only one child among the patients sent there last time. Of course the village chief knew who Lu Qing was talking about. His expression looked a little strange and he said doubtfully:
"The little boy's sister died a long time ago. She was bitten by a mutated wild dog, and the wound became infected and died. You should know about this?"
"Dead?"
Lu Qing was stunned for a moment. Just as he was about to ask the village chief for specific details, he found that the world in his eyes suddenly stopped, as if someone had pressed the pause button.
The surrounding environment suddenly changed. When Lu Qing came back to her senses, she found that she had arrived in a somewhat dark room. At the same time, memories of the current time also appeared in her mind.
This happened before infectious diseases appeared in the village.
In the room, I saw a petite figure lying quietly on the wooden bed, and next to her was a bald doctor.
In addition, there is a little boy standing next to the doctor with an anxious look on his face.
"Doctor, brother, I feel so uncomfortable..." the girl said in a hoarse voice.
Her cheeks were filled with sweat, and her eyes, which had lost their focus, were staring blankly at the ceiling.
"younger sister........"
The little boy held the girl's hand tightly and looked at the doctor with hopeful eyes.
"I......."
The doctor opened his mouth, but still couldn't get the words "I've tried my best" out of his mouth.
With his palms resting weakly on his legs, the doctor slumped beside the wooden bed and said in a deep voice: "The wound obviously doesn't look big, and treatment to prevent infection has obviously been done. Why?"
"Vitamin and antipyretics have no effect at all. There must be some ingredient in the wild dog's mouth that I don't know about. Why haven't the adults in the hunting team been infected? Is it because the adult body has higher resistance?
....."
"Crack!"
The doctor gave himself a hard slap. Now is not the time to squat here and be passive.
He hurriedly came to the girl and tried everything he could think of and what he could do so far.
However, this still failed to alleviate the girl's pain. After more than two hours of suffering, the girl finally stopped breathing.
........
The memories ended here. After Lu Qing was silent for a while, he said goodbye to the village chief and hunting captain and left here.
The little boy's sister has long since died, but the deformed little boy may not know that his sister is dead because of memory problems.
So, the question is, how should she tell the boy? Should she tell him directly that his sister has died a long time ago?
"No."
Without thinking, Lu Qing rejected the idea.
She thought carefully for a while, and then walked in the direction of the little boy's home in her memory.
The adults in the little boy and girl's family had been attacked and killed by wild beasts when the villagers first tried to leave the village, so there was no one in their home at this time.
Lu Qing opened the door directly and started searching in the room.
If the memory in her mind is correct, there should be a diary written by a girl in this room.
Well, when the girl went to kindergarten, the head teacher asked her to write it. As for the location of the kindergarten...
It's not far, only about an hour and a half by bus, haha.
After searching for a while, Lu Qing successfully found a small light red notebook in a locked drawer. She opened the notebook and read the girl's diary carefully.
"Well...that's how it's written." Lu Qing touched her chin and said.
