After Gu Chengrui went in, he went forward to look at the medicinal bags one by one. He did not expect them to all be bottom-of-the-barrel stuff.
If it wasn’t inferior goods, then it was crushed and mangled.
Fortunately, it was not soaked and could still be used. He picked up some medicine for external injuries and went to town with Qian Jiaxi and the others.
After sending the ointment to Zhao Cheng, he returned to the gathering point.
When he saw Doctor Luo standing in the crowd, Gu Chengrui asked, “Master Luo, is everything alright at home?”
“Pretty good. What about you guys?” Doctor Luo immediately turned his head and replied after hearing his voice.
“Not bad, but it’s freezing. Once the fire stops, we can’t stay in the house.”
“Same here. Fortunately, we took the firewood and charcoal from the clinic back home. Otherwise, we would have frozen silly.”
At this time, Tian Jingzhong walked over with a yawn. After a.s.signing the tasks to everyone, he said, “Everyone, you’ve seen the road paved by Shanghe village, right? Let’s use the same method. It’s not only energy-saving but also fast. Let’s try to get a clear understanding of the situation in each village within two days.”
“We saw it. If I had known we could do something like this, we would have saved much effort.” Someone immediately chimed in.
“Alright, let’s hurry up and set off. We’ll gather here at night.” After Tian Jingzhong finished speaking, he stopped Qian Jiaxi and asked, “Jiaxi, where’s your father?”
“They went to Xin An village, the newly built village. 1 heard the path there has been cleared, so my father went over to ask for help,” Jiaxi replied.
“I see. Alright, you lead your team and save as many people as possible.”
“Roger that; we’ll go now.” Qian Jiaxi affirmed and went after his team.
Meanwhile, Tian Jingzhong waited in place. After about half an hour, the village chief and Hu Chun rushed over with a group of people.
After exchanging a few polite greetings, Tian Jingzhong a.s.signed them the villages they needed to check on and then left on his own with a few teams of soldiers in the direction of the county.
After Gu Chengrui left, Zhou Ying was bored at home. She took out some cold-proof plates from her inters.p.a.ce and placed them in the backyard. She began to store large amounts of ice in her warehouse, so she could make smoothies to sell in the summer.
In just one day, more than ten batches of ice were stored.
After storing the last batch of ice in her inters.p.a.ce, she went to the shed to get some firewood to cook with.
Just as she picked up a bundle of firewood, she suddenly heard a shout from outside, “Help! Help! Someone help!”
Zhou Ying was stunned. Despite the sharpness of the voice, she recognized it as Sister Tian’s.
She remembered that Brother Tian had gone out, so she quickly took out a bottle of pepper spray and ran out.
As soon as she stepped out of the door, she saw an animal resembling a big cat pouncing on Sister Tian. It was biting and tearing her arm, and it was already bleeding.
After hesitating for just a moment, she picked up the stick she used to lock her doors at night and rushed over.
As soon as she got close, the big cat raised its head and bared its fangs at her. It also let out a low growl from its throat, obviously warning her.
At the same time, when the big cat looked up, Zhou Ying found that it was not a cat but a leopard.
According to its body shape and appearance, it was a leopard. However, she didn’t know why it didn’t have the typical leopard stripes and looked a bit like a civet cat.
Ads by PubFuture Thinking of this, she felt a chill in her heart. She had never seen how fast a leopard could run but had heard about it. It was an animal that could take her life at any time.
The leopard saw that she didn’t come close, so it immediately lowered its head and continued to bite at its prey.
However, because of the oversized cotton-padded jacket, the bite did not clamp down smoothly.
It let go and pressed its paw on the wound. Then, it turned its head and bit at Sister Tian’s neck.
Zhou Ying returned to her senses and happened to see this scene; she immediately ran over with her stick.
When the leopard heard her running over, it turned its head and looked over. Then, a fierce glint shone from its eyes. It bent its legs slightly and pounced toward Zhou Ying..
