"Xiao Min, Xiao Min" I shouted, and Xiao Min came over quickly.
"Brother, what's the matter?"
"Is there any way to cook pig blood, duck blood or chicken blood for me?"
I said, "I am seriously injured and anemic.
I have to supplement blood, so I can only eat blood."
Xiao Min thought for a while and said: "Tomorrow morning I will go to the butcher in the village to buy pig blood for you.
Our family raises more than a dozen ducks.
During the Chinese New Year, we killed two but didn't even finish them.
I'll ask my dad to go there now."
Kill the duck."
"Thank you."
I was very touched.
I was really touched.
They were strangers to me and they helped me like this.
This is rare in today's society, especially for someone like me who was seriously injured.
I didn't know what they were doing.
Willing to take me in.
I made up my mind that when I get better, I will find some money to give to them.
Judging from the appearance of their family, they are not actually rich.
At night, Xiao Min came in with a bowl of steaming duck blood and put it on the table.
Then he helped me up and leaned against the bed.
Then she fed me one mouthful at a time, just like feeding a child.
She was truly moved.
In fact, she was still a child herself.
After taking a bite, I found duck blood entering my mouth.
After chewing it for two times, it was absorbed instantly without even having to swallow.
I was stunned.
"What's wrong?
Isn't it delicious?"
Xiao Min saw my surprised expression.
"No, it's delicious.
It's so delicious.
I haven't eaten something so delicious for a long time."
Xiao Min was very happy, fed me another mouthful and said, "Then you should eat more."
Then a voice came from outside: "Carpenter Luo, let's pull the coffin."
"Here, let me help you carry it down together."
"Okay, your place is really inconvenient.
You can't even get in by car."
Then the voices of several people were heard outside, apparently carrying the coffin and going out.
Not long after they left, someone else came outside the door: "Carpenter Luo" "My dad has gone down the mountain and will be back soon."
Xiao Min put down the bowl and said to me, "Doctor Luo is here."
Then an old man carrying a brown leather medicine box with a red cross on his back, wearing a pair of glasses, and half-white hair walked in.
When he saw me sticking to the bed board, he opened his eyes in surprise.
Mouth, he said in disbelief: "Wake up" "Well, I'm awake.
I woke up at noon."

He walked over quickly, stretched out his hand to turn my eyelids up, looked into my eyes, took out the receiver and listened to my heartbeat, and said in surprise: "Oh my God, my heartbeat is so fast."
Then he checked his pulse again, and he was also stunned: "This pulse and heartbeat are as fast as those of a mouse."
I didn’t say anything, I said, “I feel everything is normal.”
He turned to look at the duck blood beside him, his face twitched slightly, and said, "I'm just getting better now, but I'm going to die if I eat something so greasy."
I smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, I'm hungry and want to eat."
He looked at me intently for a long time, then took out a bottle of glucose, injected some medicine with a syringe, and hung me up again.
He sighed and said, "I can't understand you.
Maybe it's because of the technical knowledge of our rural doctors." not enough."
I didn't say anything.
At this time, he took out a bill and handed it to Xiao Min and said, "Xiao Min, give this bill to your dad when he comes back.
These are his medicine expenses for more than a month.
They are all just The total cost of medicine is more than 3,000 yuan.
I don’t need the salary, but the medicine costs money.”
"More than three thousand."
Xiao Min took the order in surprise.
I quickly said, "It's okay.
When I get better, I'll pay for it.
If it doesn't work, I'll call my family.
It's okay for this little money.
Your wages are also included.
I can't let your help go in vain." " Dr.
Luo was startled, then smiled and said, "If that's good, let's add a thousand yuan as salary."
"Okay."
I nodded.
Dr.
Luo smiled slightly and said: "I was thinking that their family would probably be in debt because of your business.
It's good that you are alive now.
If you just died like that, these more than three thousand yuan would be a big deal for a carpenter's family.
It's a lot of money.
I initially advised them not to care about it.
Unexpectedly, they were kind-hearted and stubborn, so they kept it for you.
If your family has money, you have to subsidize them. " "I know."
I nodded repeatedly.
"A few days later, the villagers organized a mountain running, and I thought about asking Carpenter Luo to go, but that won't be necessary now," Dr.
Luo said.
“What does running in the mountains mean?”
Before I could ask, Xiao Min jumped in and said, "Dr.
Luo, help my dad sign up.
My dad hasn't been doing any work lately, so he's just idle.
If he can go to things, he can make some money at home."
It’s also idle.”
"Okay, I'll leave first."
Dr.
Luo got up with the medicine box, and then Xiao Min sent him out.
Xiao Min came back and continued to feed me duck blood with a bowl in hand.

While I was eating, I asked: "What is mountain running?"
"Stop asking."
Xiao Min refused to say anything.
"I won't eat it if you don't tell me."
I closed my mouth angrily.
"You" Xiao Min saw that I was angry and said, "Okay, okay, I'll tell you, but you can't tell others, because it seems that these things are illegal."
"It's illegal," I said dumbfounded, "could mountain running mean sneaking up the mountain to steal wood or hunt?"
"No, although people in the village also do this."
Xiao Min hesitated for a while and said: "Our Wushan area used to have a terrible custom.
It is said to have been passed down thousands of years ago, that is, there are many people on the mountain.
There are many death caves, also called self-death caves.
That is, when the elderly are over sixty years old and lose their labor force, they will be sent to the mountains by their descendants to dig a death cave.
The space will not be very large, but it is actually a The small cave is almost as big as a vegetable cellar.”
"Send it up for what?"
I was dumbfounded and had a bad feeling.
"What else can you do?
Wait for death."
Xiao Min said with a red face: "In ancient times, food was in short supply.
People who lost their labor force could no longer waste food and leave food to future generations.
I even heard that in the earliest times, people were People with long tails can eat them once their tails turn golden."
"What a mess."
A feeling of nausea came over me, and I lost my appetite instantly when I saw the duck blood in the bowl.
"I don't know either.
They are all customs passed down by people in the past.
However, these customs were banned after the founding of New China.
However, during the years when people starved to death, some people did it again."
Xiao Min continued.
The years she was talking about must have been the years when no crops were harvested.
How many people died of starvation in the country during those years.
Guanyin ate all the grass, roots, tree bark, and soil, leaving only Yi Zi to eat each other, so it was unreasonable for this kind of death cave to rise again.
Not surprisingly fast.
This phenomenon also happened in Japan in the past.
I didn't expect this phenomenon to happen in our country before, but now life is better and everyone has solved the problem of food and clothing.
This kind of thing will definitely not happen again
