Falling Moons in a Barren Year, the Cub is Idle

Qin Luoluo lived in a daze for over ten years. Then came the drought, and mountain bandits attacked the village...

Qin Luo, a newly admitted college student, experienced the apocalypse. Her p...

Chapter 125 Frustration

After the children were all put in their rooms, Dr. You asked their families to leave.

He whispered a few more words in Qin Xing's ear before calling Qin Luo and Liu Zheng inside to help.

The villagers wanted to say something but dared not. Everyone knew that Doctor You was highly skilled and no one wanted to offend him, so they could only stand guard at the door.

Qin Luo had Wu Hua set up a soundproof barrier at the door before they started talking.

Qin Luo first fed each child a sip of the spatial stream water, then used her special ability to check them over.

Doctor You observed their complexions from the side. Liu Zheng, who was seeing Wu Hua for the first time, froze on the spot, afraid to move.

Wu Hua noticed her unease and flew over to greet her.

"Hello Liu Zheng! I'm Dang Kang, and Luo Luo even gave me a lovely name: Wu Hua!"

Looking at the piglets flying around in front of her, Liu Zheng stammered as she spoke.

"Hello! Mr. Kang, thank you for taking care of Luo Luo!"

After saying that, he felt something was missing, so he kowtowed to Wu Hua again.

Wu Hua used her pig hooves to grab her by the collar and lifted her up.

"You don't need to do that. Luo Luo and I are family, and so are you!"

After Liu Zheng stopped, Wu Hua flew into her arms.

"Luo Luo told me your fried dough sticks are especially delicious. Could you make them for me sometime? I'll trade you something!"

Liu Zheng held it tightly, afraid of dropping it.

"No need to change it, just tell Luoluo what you want to eat, and I'll make it for you!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Hua happily nestled in her arms, squirming and wriggling.

"Okay, then can you make me lunch? I've been wanting to eat it for ages!"

Liu Zheng mustered her courage and gently stroked its fluffy pig face, her expression full of affection.

"Okay, I'll make it for you in a bit!"

Upon hearing this conversation, Qin Luo and Doctor You, who had finished their work, immediately expressed that they wanted to eat too, and Liu Zheng readily agreed.

"Okay, okay, make more, everyone can eat!"

After confirming lunch, Liu Zheng asked, "Dr. You, how are the children?"

Doctor You sighed.

"These children don't have many superficial injuries, but they've all been poisoned. This poison won't kill them immediately, but it will slowly cause their internal organs to necrotize!"

He turned his gaze to Qin Luo

"Luo Luo has just helped them stabilize the spread of the poison, and their wounds have been healed. Now, the most important thing is that those thieves are watching..."

Suddenly his expression turned serious.

"We can't let the child get better, nor can we let the child die, but dragging it out risks damaging their health..."

As the group was discussing how to handle the situation, there was a knock on the door.

Qin Luo sent Wu Hua back to her spatial dimension before Liu Zheng opened the door.

Wan Yun came in carrying several sets of children's clothes.

"Dr. You, Qin Xing has already had Mu Feng and Xiao Qi take care of what you asked us to do. These clothes belong to the brothers, and they're all clean!"

She held the clothes up to her eyes.

"They might be a bit too big, but let them wear them anyway! They're stained with blood, it's better to change them!"

Liu Zheng took the clothes

"Sister-in-law, you've thought of everything perfectly. You don't need to lower your voice; once Lord Kang has cast his spell, they won't be able to hear you."

Turning to look at the child on the bed

"Alas! These children are so pitiful. I just saw their parents at the door, and not one of them brought clean clothes for their children!"

Looking at the children's sallow faces, she felt a pang of heartache.

"These children have been missing for so long, they must not have eaten anything. None of their parents even thought to bring food!"

Wan Yun was also truly angry.

"They all talk the talk about caring for the child! I haven't seen them look for the child since he went missing. Just now when I came in, I heard them saying that judging from the child's appearance, it's not even certain he'll survive!"

Liu Zheng was somewhat surprised: "What? Shouldn't parents pray for God's mercy at this time?"

Wan Yun thought of the people outside the door and sighed deeply.

"They even said it was fortunate that Dr. You's treatment was free; if we had to go outside to find a doctor, they wouldn't have treated us. Can you believe what a human being would say? I was so angry I wanted to scratch their faces!"

Hearing Wan Yun's words, everyone in the room was furious. Qin Luo asked Doctor You...

"Grandpa You, I'll detoxify them later. Could you give them acupuncture every day to make them drowsy without harming their bodies, so they look like they haven't been properly poisoned?"

Dr. You nodded after thinking about it.

"That's possible, but I'm afraid some of those thieves might be skilled in medicine. If they take your pulse, we'll be exposed..."

"So, shall we say they need a long period of treatment and that they'll be kept by your side for the time being?"

Dr. You immediately poured a basin of cold water on her.

"I'm afraid that won't work. Their parents now consider those thieves their saviors, and they don't trust us at all!"

Liu Zheng felt that Doctor You's words made a lot of sense.

“We told them before that those people were bad, but they helped them find their child!”

"Yes! If they spread rumors among the villagers and clansmen that we're going to harm the children, how can we stop them if they insist on taking the children away?"

Wan Yun panicked upon hearing what Doctor You said.

"But the child was killed by Zhang Niangzi and her gang! How could they be so indiscriminate?"

Liu Zheng patted the back of her hand

"Sister-in-law, if they could distinguish right from wrong, they wouldn't blame everything on Luoluo. They've all been brainwashed by that Madam Zhang. I heard from Uncle that they're secretly planning to leave with them!"
