In the blink of an eye, the villagers had surrounded Jiang Jingxue.

Everyone was furious and started cursing at Jiang Jingxue.

"You vicious woman! Why did you kill our villagers!"

"We were lucky to survive the tsunami, but we died at your hands! What were you really up to?!"

Fortunately, Chen Hong and his men stood in front of her, preventing the villagers from getting any closer to Jiang Jingxue.

Otherwise, everyone would want to rush up and tear her apart.

Jiang Jingxue was unaware of the patient's condition, the cause of the worsening illness, or the reason for the death.

She didn't know how to explain to the villagers, so she could only shout, "Everyone, calm down and listen to me!"

"I risked my life and traveled a long way to participate in disaster relief, hoping to help everyone. More than anyone else, I want all patients to recover safely! Please believe me!"

"I need to investigate why the patients' conditions worsened, otherwise more people might die!"

"If it was indeed my fault that the villagers died, I am willing to accept any punishment! I will never evade responsibility!"

The most urgent task is to find out the cause as soon as possible, rather than arguing with the villagers here.

Hearing Jiang Jingxue's words, the villagers gradually calmed down.

Yes, ever since she arrived, she has been constantly preparing medicine and administering acupuncture to the patients, without stopping for a moment.

She really put her heart into helping them.

Could there be some misunderstanding here?

"Chen Hong, take me to the patient ward quickly!"

Jiang Jingxue, escorted by Chen Hong, was hurrying towards the patient's location.

Suddenly, someone in the crowd shouted.

"I think she's trying to run away! Everyone, stop her, don't let her get away!"

"Do you really think these officials are here to help us? I think they're just putting on an act to build their own achievements!"

"We ordinary people are less than ants in their eyes; we are just stepping stones for them to climb up the social ladder!"

"The death of one or two people is nothing to them, but they are our relatives!"

These words instantly reignited the anger of the villagers who had calmed down.

"I've long suspected that she could have such amazing medical skills at such a young age. It turns out she was using our family members as guinea pigs!"

"A life for a life! I think only her death can give our loved ones some closure!"

"Yes! Make her atone with her death!"

The agitated villagers surrounded Jiang Jingxue again and threw stones at her.

Chen Hong and his men shielded Jiang Jingxue with their bodies, surrounding her to prevent her from being attacked by the crowd.

Even so, Jiang Jingxue was still pelted with several stones.

These villagers were too strong to fight back against; they couldn't use force and were simply no match for them.

"Madam, are you alright?"

Chen Hong looked worried.

The major sent him to protect the lady. If the major finds out that the lady has been pelted with stones, how will he explain it?

Jiang Jingxue shook her head.

"I'm fine."

Her injuries were minor; what worried her was what would happen to the patients.

How are they doing now?

Chen Hong was preparing to pull out his gun to intimidate the frenzied villagers.

Jiang Jingxue stopped him immediately.

"Chen Hong, don't draw your gun. That will only escalate the conflict."

The villagers are already angry; if they are further enraged by pulling out guns, the consequences could be disastrous.

Chen Hong reluctantly put the gun back.

Faced with this vulnerable and powerless situation, Chen Hong couldn't help but mutter curses under his breath: "These scoundrels! They are utterly ungrateful! Madam, you didn't even have time to drink water to save them, and you even fainted from exhaustion. And what do they have to do? Turn around and blame us!"

"I think they shouldn't have been saved at all; they should have been left to fend for themselves!"

"Chen Hong, don't say things like that so casually."

While dodging the stones, Jiang Jingxue secretly observed the villagers who were watching her.

She noticed that one of the men, who was not very tall and had an unremarkable appearance, was quite active in the crowd.

Every time the villagers calmed down, he would escalate the conflict with a few words and incite everyone to cause trouble.

He was also the one who led the way in throwing stones at her.

This man's intentions are probably not simple.

"Chen Hong, have you seen that man?"

Jiang Jingxue secretly pointed at Chen Hong.

"I suspect he's the one who instigated these villagers to cause trouble. You need to control him first!"

At Jiang Jingxue's prompting, Chen Hong also noticed the man.

"Don't worry, Madam, leave this to me!"

Chen Hong immediately led the two men into the crowd and pulled the man out.

After the man was brought under control, the villagers indeed became much more rational.

"Fellow villagers, please remain calm! The patient's condition is critical. If you want your loved ones to live, you must listen to me!"

"I'll go check on their condition first. Once they're stable, you can kill or torture them as you please!"

The villagers looked at each other, and soon someone spoke up: "Anyway, she's in our village now, and she can't get away. Why don't we let her go and see what's going on!"

"Yes, our loved ones are waiting to be saved, let her go!"

This time, no one dared to stop Jiang Jingxue.

She rushed to the patient's location.

At this moment, the ward was filled with groans and cries of pain as everyone clutched their stomachs.

It had just started to improve yesterday, but it has indeed gotten much worse today.
