The bed is not like a bed, but more like a wooden board placed on a few bricks. Everything in this house seems to have come from the distant 1940s and 1950s.

It was not that Chu Tian had never seen poor families, but as soon as he stepped here, he realized how wrong he was.

There is always no lower limit to poverty.

"There's no tea at home, so just drink some hot water."

The woman's voice was surprisingly hoarse. At the moment, the two enamel cups contained somewhat dirty hot water, but Zhou Yu didn't show any pretense at all and took them in his hands.

There are many mountain springs near here, but there are no water tanks. No matter how clean the water is, it will accumulate sediment and become dirty after being left for a long time.

Chu Tian frowned, because at this moment he suddenly understood why he smelled a rancid smell from the moment he came in, mixed with some strange other smells that were familiar to him.

But now I heard the hoarseness of the woman's voice, and then judged her complexion, the long-scabbed scars on her arms, and even the rope hidden under the bed.

He finally understood why Zhou Yu was embarrassed to tell him before this.

This woman is not sick.

But, here, give up a certain addiction!

Chu Tian held the water glass and looked at the strange behavior of the woman on the side, biting her fingers completely unconsciously, and even pinching her own arm...

While Zhou Yu was chatting with her, Chu Tian even caught a glimpse of the rubber band used to tie a pulse and a homemade syringe not far away.

He understood something instantly...

Within a few minutes, with the sound of hurried footsteps, Chutian saw a thin figure put down a huge backpack filled with various herbs on his back, and then quickly picked up the sickle on the wall and rushed into the house.

This is a girl who is about nineteen years old. Although her clothes are a little shabby, she does not hide her stubbornness and heroic spirit. If she were placed in the city, she would definitely be a standard beauty.

At this moment, she was panting. It wasn't until she glanced at Zhou Yu that her beautiful watery eyes widened, and the sickle in her hand fell to the ground...

He hesitated a little and said sheepishly: "Sister Zhou, I didn't know it was you."

five minutes later.

Obviously, Zhou Yu had visited several times before this, so the girl named Chu Xiaoguo and her mother were very familiar with Zhou Yu, but what they didn't expect was...

This time Zhou Yu was not trying to force Chu Xiaoguo back to the orphanage.

Instead, he wanted Chu Tian to diagnose and treat Chu Xiaoguo’s mother...

19 years old is an absolute adult anywhere in the country. Even in such a remote place, there are many people who start a family and have children at this age.

Zhou Yu set up to tell Chu Tian that Chu Xiaoguo had begged her before...

I hope she can help him get married in the city, and the only requirement is that she pay to cure her mother's illness.

This girl has a maturity that belies her age, but she also has a strength that is incomparable to ordinary people! She was able to make such a request that surprised Zhou Yu, and made Zhou Yu feel distressed for many days to come.

If there is no other way, which woman would be willing to put her body and her lifelong happiness as a bet in exchange for her mother's health?

It's a pity that she underestimated her mother's illness.

"If it was just a common illness, I could even spend my own money to help her find the best hospital to treat her, but her illness..."

Zhou Yu gave the food he brought to Chu Xiaoguo and her mother. While they were having lunch, he pulled Chu Tian aside and pointed to Chu Tian a plant growing on the mountain with some hesitation.

It is extremely beautiful when it blooms, but it is the most poisonous poison!

"If my guess is correct, this herb should have the same pain-relieving function as morphine. She should take it regularly, so her body has become dependent."

Zhou Yu was slightly surprised by Chu Tian's words. She didn't expect that Chu Tian had already guessed the truth before she told the truth.

"That's right, Xiaoguo comes from a single-parent family. Her father died young and her mother took her to flee to Wen County. She was very weak and sick at the time. I don't know when it started..."

"People in the mountains say that the white syrup made from the medicinal material called 'white millet grass' can relieve pain and is very effective. For a time, many people stopped going to the clinic when they had headaches and brain fever..."

"Instead, I use this thing to heal myself. When I first came here, the mountains and fields here were covered with this kind of flower. It's hard to believe, right? The more dangerous the thing, the more beautiful it looks, and its vitality is extremely tenacious."

"Many people have become dependent on this thing over the years. Some people even died on this thing. Seeing the people on this mountain running away to death, only Xiaoguo and her family are left..."

Zhou Yu spoke slowly, and in front of Chu Tian's eyes, there seemed to be a scene of many people all over the mountains and plains scrambling to dig up this herb...

Sometimes, ignorance is more sad than stupidity. This seemingly beautiful flower is simply the flower of the devil.

"I have consulted the drug rehabilitation center before, but they are not sure about this situation. Moreover, Xiaoguo's mother is determined not to leave the mountain, and Xiaoguo is even more stubborn..."

"She even swore that if her mother didn't leave, she wouldn't leave either. Gradually it became the biggest headache for Chaoyang Welfare Home."

Zhou Yu spoke eloquently, and Chu Tian couldn't help but sigh after hearing this.

Immediately, he slowly stood up and said something that made Zhou Yu very excited...

"Although the chance of success is low, I am willing to try my best!"

However, when Zhou Yu told Chu Xiaoguo the news, he did not expect that she would be the first to refuse!

It turns out that during this period of time, in order to get rid of their mother's addiction, the mother and daughter tried every means, which can be seen from the rope under the bed...

This girl, who weighed no more than 90 kilograms at the time of the attack, needed to tie her mother, who was in madness, to the bed board to prevent her from being unable to bear it and injuring herself.

When Chu Tian walked in, he noticed that the woman had shocking scars on her body, so he could naturally understand Chu Xiaoguo's despair and everything she had done before.

Zhou Yu also told Chu Tian that during this period, Chu Xiaoguo even asked other barefoot doctors for help. For this reason, the mother and daughter even took on a foreign debt. This is why when they saw Chu Tian, ​​a stranger...

The reason women are about to close their doors.

Zhou Yu didn't expect that things would come to a dead end...

"Xiaoguo, please believe Sister Zhou again. Although this person doesn't look like a doctor, I can assure you that if there is really a person in this world who can cure your mother's illness..."

"That can only be him!"

Zhou Yu's words at this moment came from the heart, and his eyes were firmer than ever before.

After experiencing Chu Tian's performance in the promotion competition, Zhou Yu seemed to have only absolute trust and admiration for him.

Otherwise, Chu Tian would not be specially invited to come over...

Chu Xiaoguo has a mature mind that is unprecedented at this age, and because mother and daughter have been in danger too many times, she has always been wary of Chu Tian...
