On the way to escape from famine, I amaze the world with my medical practice

Chapter 25 Help her again

After hearing this, many people were incited. Many people who were willing to follow Ye Hongchang to wade across the river just now began to hesitate.

It seems to be the truth, it is safer to take the official route, it is just a few days later.

"Yes, Hongchang. Uncle Wu is right. How about we think about it again?"

Seeing more and more people giving up, Ye Hongchang lost his good temper.

"Are you trying to force me to take the official road? Even if we hurry up now, we won't be able to reach the ferry in three days. The weather has changed. If the heavy rain comes in the past two days, I'm afraid the bridge will be flooded. By then How can we cross the river?"

Some people said, "At worst, we just have to wait a few more days. There are so many people who have to cross the river anyway, and we are not the only ones. We can always find a way."

Ye Xiangxiang was also desperate when he heard these words. He didn't expect that after going through so many things, everyone still had this herd mentality.

When facing the test of survival, if you blindly follow the herd, you will either be unable to seize the opportunity and can only pick up the rest, or die with a large number of people.

But there was nothing she could do about the current situation.

It is impossible to really go through the official channels to verify who is right and who is wrong, but if the attitude is tough and everyone must follow, then the differences will become bigger and bigger in the future.

Just when everyone was in a stalemate, Ye Changlin's weak voice came from the crowd.

After Ye Changlin fell ill, his health deteriorated a lot. Although he no longer had a fever, he was in poor spirits.

"Come here and listen to what I have to say."

He was the eldest man in the village, and everyone still respected him very much. They all gathered around him now.

"Grandpa, everyone is here, please tell me." Ye Hongting said.

Ye Changlin patted his chest, "It's going to rain soon. If we don't cross the river, I'm afraid we won't have a chance. You all listen to Hongchang. He has a lot of knowledge. Are you sure you can compare with him?"

Everyone lowered their heads, and Ye Changlin said forcefully, "Since you don't have a good idea, just listen to Hongchang, he will not harm you."

Ye Changlin ran out of energy after saying a few words and coughed, "Even if you find that you made a mistake in the future, you can't blame Hongchang. He spent so much energy on this journey. How can you not remember the kindness and only remember the mistakes? "

His words united the villagers a lot.

There is really no way to continue walking without Ye Hongchang. Although this road is dangerous, it cannot be said to be wrong.

As soon as the old man opened his mouth, everyone expressed their willingness to follow Ye Hongchang, and they all agreed.

Ye Hongchang called people over to discuss the matter and finally decided on the route. They would cross the river today and wade across the river tomorrow.

Ye Hongchang asked everyone to throw away some luggage that was temporarily unused. Although it was a pity, there was nothing we could do. We had to wade across the river and it was impossible to transport everything across.

Ye Changlin could only lie down on the cart and be dragged away. Ye Xiangxiang asked Meng Chang to give him an acupuncture.

But after getting the acupuncture, the words became clear, "The old man's life span has expired and he won't be able to survive much longer."

Ye Xiangxiang was prepared in his heart, so he had to explain it clearly to Ye Changlin's children and grandchildren. They all knew that he was old, but it was still very uncomfortable to hear this.

We are still on the run. If it were just gone, wouldn't we have to bury it casually?

Ye Changlin was still in poor condition on the way, and he was worried that he would slow down everyone, so he kept telling Ye Hongting, "You can go as fast as you want, I can bear it."

Ye Hongting's eyes were red, "Grandpa, please rest, we will be there soon."

It was only half a day's journey to cross the river. Although they walked slowly, they arrived before dark. At this time, the wind was blowing hard, and the weather felt hot in the morning. At night, I felt cold even wearing a single coat.

Ye Changlin raised his hand and patted the car board. Ye Hongting immediately passed over, "Grandpa, what's the matter?"

"Let...let Hongchang come."

Ye Hongting nodded, "Okay, I'll call Brother Ye over right now."

When Ye Hongchang arrived, Ye Changlin was so uncomfortable that he couldn't speak. He hurriedly asked people to find Ye Xiangxiang.

"Xiangxiang, do you have any idea? The old man is feeling too uncomfortable now."

Ye Hongchang couldn't bear it. The old man should have enjoyed his old age at home, but he had to suffer here.

Ye Xiangxiang knew that her little acupuncture skills were of no use. She looked at Meng Chang and said hurriedly, "I'll ask Mr. Meng."

Meng Changzheng was accompanying Meng Tianlang. Ye Xiangxiang said, "Mr. Meng, I wonder if you can give the old man an injection. I'm afraid it's time. We don't want him to suffer too much, so please..."

Meng Chang refused directly, "Girl, let me tell you very clearly. I have helped you a lot. If we part ways in the future, who will you rely on?"

Ye Xiangxiang begged, "Mr. Meng, I'm begging you."

"Don't beg me. It's useless to beg me. Little girl, who told you that as long as you say "please", all your wishes will come true?"

He looked in the direction of Ye Changlin, "Old man, we have reached the last moment. It doesn't matter whether we need an acupuncture or not, so why bother? Since you want to study medicine, you must accept the fact that you cannot cure everyone in the world, and you must also learn to accept the patient's death." go."

Ye Xiangxiang said, "But he can walk more easily, Mr. Meng, even if it can only relieve some pain, we want to give it a try."

She said seriously, "If there had been no war, his old man would be enjoying his old age at home. He would not have gone through all the hardships to escape, nor would he be infected with the plague, nor would he... die in the wilderness."

Ye Xiangxiang also felt that she was in a bit of a dilemma. Meng Chang didn't want to interfere with so many things at first, but he still cured the plague for everyone. In the end, she came to ask him for help again.

She wasn't going to say anything anymore, and turned to leave, but Meng Tianlang suddenly spoke.

"Grandpa, help her one more time."

Ye Xiangxiang turned around. Meng Chang was obviously a little embarrassed. Meng Tianlang said, "If there was no war, the old man would not end up like this."

Meng Chang picked up his acupuncture kit and sighed, "Little girl, you must have noticed that I am soft-hearted."

Ye Xiangxiang cried with joy and bowed seriously to Meng Chang, "Thank you very much, Mr. Meng, thank you very much."

She took Meng Chang over to give Ye Changlin acupuncture. After a few injections, Ye Changlin felt less painful and his face softened a lot.

Meng Chang said, "I'll come over in a while to tighten the needles. Let's have a nice talk."

Everyone's heart skipped a beat, and several people in the family turned their backs and burst into tears.

Ye Changlin now had the strength to speak, but his first reaction was to take Ye Hongchang's hand and said, "Hongchang, you have to cross the river tomorrow no matter what, otherwise you won't be able to cross."

At the last moment, Ye Changlin was worried about whether everyone could cross the river.

He knew how difficult it was to get here. Seeing the sudden change in the weather, he knew that heavy rain was coming soon. If he could not cross the river, he would not have a chance.
