I'm struggling, it's so difficult, how can I get out of here! I've seen too many unbearable scenes, either deception between each other, or scheming against each other. I've been trained to be very savvy now, speaking diplomatically to people and speaking cunningly to ghosts.
Since Hei San Ba one of them fell, the atmosphere in the entire B area has improved a lot. No one dares to openly cause trouble anymore, but they still engage in sneaky actions behind each other's backs.
I found that slowly, some people are willing to contact me, talk to me, and be friends with me. However, most of them are older than me. I guess I have a deep connection with older people, or maybe I am seen as a good kid in their eyes.
What's troubling is that my health is getting worse day by day. My face is pale, and I'm so thin that you can see my ribs. My pulse and heart rate are also erratic, and sometimes I feel chest tightness. I'm so weak that I can hardly move, and I get dizzy and black out when I bend over a little. I can't do anything.
For someone like me who rarely gets sick, these conditions are simply unbearable. In addition to these problems, I also suffer from severe neurasthenia. I often feel extremely sensitive and have the urge to cry for no reason, even the sound of someone calling me or an animal's cry startles me.
I often feel melancholic and sense that I won't live long. These harmful emotions greatly disturb my thinking and make my mind unusually chaotic! Sigh! I feel like I don't exist in this world to enjoy happiness at all.
My body and soul are suffering at the same time. I collapsed all of a sudden and fell into a deep sleep like a lazy pig. I know I can't walk out of here anymore. I'm going to die here. This is my doomsday.
Huang This person is the same age as me. I don't know much about him, but I feel like we are kindred spirits. Because of several events that happened here, we have had inexplicable eye contact. Although we have never spoken, it always feels like silence speaks louder than words.
Later, I came to understand him better. He was born into a military family and is still a non-commissioned officer. He ended up here only after being framed in a certain incident. He didn't go into details, but I could always sense that he had experienced a bloody and tumultuous upheaval. I never knew his real name; I just called him " Huang " like that.
During the days when I was sick, he took the initiative to take care of me. He was afraid that sleeping on the ground would be even more detrimental to my recovery, so he used broken bricks and boards to set up a bed for me. This was in Zone B, a privilege only I could enjoy. I really admired him at that time. How come no one ostracized him? No one dared to oppose him. How did he manage that? He never formed cliques or gangs. Wherever he went, he was never alone, and there was always someone to help.
I couldn't eat much for several days, and others said I was almost done for. But he really had a way. I don't know what he gave me, two small yellow things, and after I fell asleep in a daze, I woke up wanting to eat. It's really strange.
Suddenly, Fat Xiaodun, with his eyes squinted, dressed in a suit, came in high spirits. He told us there was work to be done and asked everyone to get a good night's sleep today. We would all be loaded onto a big truck early tomorrow morning to go together, saying that a project needed manpower.
More than ten green trucks carried us on the road. The weather was hot, and the cars were bumping along the rugged mountain road. Many elderly people and children couldn't bear it. They suffered from heatstroke, tossing and turning in the car, vomiting constantly, and some even fainted on the spot.
Huang and I were on the same truck. He protected me well, afraid that I couldn't bear the heat. He used some old clothes to set up a small tent for me, just enough to accommodate my curled-up self.
By noon, or so it was said, judging by the position of the sun, it was already around 2 o'clock in the afternoon. I don't know which car it was, but suddenly an old man from one of the cars ahead jumped out.
"Someone jumped out of the car, someone jumped out of the car!"
Everyone heard it and stood up to look involuntarily.
"Hurry, save the person! Someone jumped off the car!"
"Nobody move, stay calm, we will have someone take them back for treatment!" Minister Li shouted loudly through the horn of the lead car.
"Everyone please remain calm! We will take a brief rest at a stop ahead! Please bear with us a little longer!" he continued speaking through the horn.
Our car passed by the spot where Elder Yu had jumped down. We clearly saw him lying on his back, mouth slightly open, eyes tightly closed, looking like he was almost gone. When the rescue vehicle slowly caught up from behind, we all thought Elder Yu was finally saved. We saw two soldiers getting off the car from a distance, but didn't see them lift Elder Yu into the car. Instead, we heard two gunshots.
These two gunshots made everyone in the car lose their composure. Some people whispered, saying this wasn't about getting us to work, it was clearly an attempt to get rid of us halfway, to execute us. Everyone should quickly think about how to escape! Suddenly, people became restless and anxious, some even hugged each other and cried, bidding farewell.
Just then, two people jumped down from the front car, a man and a child who looked to be about four or five years old. The man kept shouting, "My child has tetanus. He can't continue with the army, his life is in imminent danger. I must take him to seek medical treatment, otherwise it could be fatal!"
The man was strong and powerful. After jumping off the car, he immediately ran to the front and blocked the road to prevent the car from moving forward. Because of his actions, the cars behind also stopped one after another. The discomfort of the bumpy road finally came to a halt at this moment, and people could finally catch their breath. Everyone clamored for water and to use the restroom. So, before reaching the rest area, everyone was allowed to enter a resting state ahead of time.
At this point, many people stood up and gathered around the man, unanimously demanding that medical personnel accompany them on the journey. Otherwise, they would all go on strike and refuse to continue. The weather was hot, and many people were already seriously affected. It seems that the accompaniment of medical personnel is very necessary.
Minister Li has promised that medical staff are on their way, and as soon as they arrive, they will continue to clear the way. That's what they said, but people are still worried. Where are they going to take these people? No one is sure, and everyone is constantly paying attention to what happens next.
Let's see how they treat this man and child. Will they shoot them dead like they did to Elder Yu earlier?
