In the 21st century, Chen Qingqing transmigrated to become cannon fodder in Nanshan Village of the Great Ning Dynasty. In a year of famine and a waning moon, her wicked grandmother, to support her ...
Chapter 143 Escaping from Danger
The night is as dark as ink.
After getting rid of the wolf's pursuit, Chen Qingqing led Dabao out with difficulty.
The torch had long been burned out. Fortunately, Chen Qingqing had a wilderness rescue space and spent twenty cents to buy a high-intensity flashlight, so she didn't have to grope in the dark.
Even with a flashlight, she still took every step carefully.
Not only do you have to be wary of wolves attacking again, but you also have to be on the lookout for poisonous snakes scurrying out from trees or bushes.
Dabao was bitten on the leg by a wolf. Although his bones were not injured, the wound was deep and he could only move forward slowly.
Several times he wanted to stop and rest for a while before continuing on his way, but seeing that Chen Qingqing was in a mess after saving him and was still helping him explore the way ahead, he had to grit his teeth and continue moving forward.
The two of them shuttled through the dense forest, and in the second half of the night, they finally found a relatively flat hillside.
They didn't know where they were or whether they had walked out of the Wild Wolf Valley. In the faint starlight, the mountains in the distance didn't seem so majestic anymore.
After tossing and turning for most of the night, Chen Qingqing was already exhausted, but she couldn't rest yet. She quickly picked up some dry branches around her.
With his back to Chen Dabao, he took out a lighter from the space and poured in a small bottle of alcohol, and the firewood was instantly ignited.
The bonfire burned brightly, lighting up the surrounding mountains.
There were a lot of thick dry wood not far away, enough to last until dawn.
With this bonfire, even the ferocious beasts dared not come near.
Chen Dabao sat weakly beside the fire, his face pale.
He hadn't eaten a single bite of food or drunk a single sip of water since entering the mountain yesterday morning.
At this moment, I was exhausted, my whole body was limp and I couldn't muster any strength.
I used to hear that Chen Qingqing had dug up ginseng, and I was full of disdain at the time, but now I finally understand what the difference is.
Faced with the ferocious wolves, she remained fearless and not at all timid. Instead, she responded calmly and bravely rescued him from the wolves' mouths.
If it weren't for Chen Qingqing, he would have been eaten by the wolf long ago.
Looking at her busy figure, Chen Dabao's admiration for her grew stronger.
At this moment, Chen Qingqing came over from a distance dragging a large piece of wood.
She didn't know yet how much of a shock she had brought to Chen Dabao tonight, and her image in Dabao's eyes was becoming more and more prominent.
She dragged the wood to the campfire, thinking it would burn until dawn, and then came to Dabao.
Although wolf fangs are not poisonous, they have a strong bite force and can cause deep wounds. There are many bacteria on wolf fangs, and if not treated in time, it can easily lead to inflammation and infection of the wound.
She asked with concern, "Dabao, how do you feel about the wound? Does it still hurt?"
"Sister, I didn't feel any pain just now because I was busy escaping, but now the pain is unbearable." Chen Dabao did not hide it and told the truth.
Chen Qingqing was stunned. You know, although Chen Dabao had a good relationship with the original owner, he always called her by her first name.
Just now in the Wild Wolf Valley, the person I called was Sister Qingqing. The word "Sister" was called so warmly and naturally, without any awkwardness at all. This is how family members should be.
Chen Qingqing smiled and said, "It didn't hurt just now because I gave you painkillers.
Now I have to treat your wound again, it may be a little painful,
I'll try to be gentle, just scream if it hurts."
"Sister, I'm not afraid of pain, go ahead!"
Chen Qingqing looked at the bloodstains on his trouser legs, carefully pulled them up, and examined them carefully in the light of the campfire.
If you find that the area around the wound is red and swollen, there is a possibility of infection if it is not treated in time.
If he took out a scalpel and cleaned the wound directly, he would definitely be in unbearable pain.
Chen Qingqing thought about it, and an anesthetic appeared in her hand. She chatted with Dabao casually for a few words to distract his attention, and quickly pushed the needle into his body, and silently counted in her mind, "Ten, nine, eight, seven..."
When he finished counting each word, Dabao closed his eyes and passed out.
She quickly took out the tetanus immunoglobulin injection from the space and injected it into Dabao.
Then put on disposable sterile gloves, take out the scalpel and clean the dead flesh around the wound bit by bit, sprinkle hemostatic drugs,
He took out the catgut and sewed up the wound stitch by stitch, and finally took out a bandage to wrap it up.
For fear that the wound would become infected, I gave him two more antibiotic tablets.
After doing all this, Chen Qingqing stood up, stretched her numb legs, threw some thick firewood into the fire, and then sat down to rest.
Although she was very tired, she didn't dare close her eyes. She kept watching Dabao while adding firewood to the fire.
After tossing and turning in the middle of the night, her originally fair and rosy face now became pale and tired, but her eyes were still bright.
After sitting there all night, the sky turned pale.
Chen Dabao woke up slowly. After a night's rest, he had recovered a lot of energy.
Seeing that he woke up, Chen Qingqing took out the compressed biscuits she had prepared in advance from her cloth bag and handed the unpacked can of beef to him.
"You must be hungry. Eat something to replenish your energy. We'll go down the mountain later."
Looking at Chen Qingqing's bloodshot eyes, Chen Dabao felt guilty. "Sister, I used to be too self-righteous and always thought I was great. If it weren't for you today, I would have been killed by the wolf."
"Okay, Dabao, it's over. Let's not talk about it. Your mother helped us when my grandparents kicked her out. Even if it's to repay her for that favor, I won't sit idly by."
"Sister, I will listen to you when we get back and won't be willful anymore." Chen Dabao's eyes were red and his voice was choked.
Chen Qingqing smiled softly, "Okay, eat quickly, only when you are full will you have the strength to walk back."
Chen Dabao nodded vigorously. He was already so hungry that his stomach was sticking to his back, and he began to eat in big mouthfuls.
After resting for a while, Chen Qingqing covered the remaining fire on the ground with soil, making sure that the fire was completely extinguished. Then she identified the direction and walked down the mountain with Dabao.
******
Wu Baoan did not dare to delay and led everyone into the mountains again.
Along the way, everyone was in a very heavy mood.
Chen Zhanshan was filled with self-blame and regret. If he had been at home last night, perhaps he could have stopped Chen Qingqing...
When they reached the Wild Wolf Valley Pass, Wu Baoan stopped and said seriously, "Everyone, be careful. Follow closely and don't get separated."
Everyone nodded and walked into the Wild Wolf Valley cautiously.
As Chen Zhanshan walked, he shouted Chen Qingqing's name loudly. His voice echoed in the valley, but there was no response.
Time passed by minute by minute, and everyone's hope faded away bit by bit.
Everyone's eyes were dimmed, and they all thought that the two children would never come back...
