After turning around, Mu Jingheng and Xu Xinning quickly arrived at the location where the grenade had exploded.

Three were killed, one was seriously injured, and the other three were wounded.

The three were screaming in pain, one of whom had injured his leg and was cursing as he clutched his leg.

The other two are okay, their injuries aren't serious, but they probably have tinnitus from the explosion, and they keep patting their ears.

Mu Jingheng hated the little people so much that before they could react, he rushed out and snapped their necks.

Mu Jingheng seemed to be blinded by hatred, completely unaware that two more people were lying in the area untouched by the grenade.

As Mu Jingheng darted out, the two men reacted as well.

Fortunately, Xu Xinning had followed. She had observed the surroundings the moment Mu Jingheng darted out, so the two of them also came into Xu Xinning's view.

As they were about to raise their guns at Mu Jingheng, Xu Xinning had already drawn her crossbow, and two arrows flew swiftly toward the two men. Just as Mu Jingheng snapped the neck of the first man, the arrows pierced the bodies of the two men with two soft thuds.

Xu Xinning's archery skills are very accurate; she hits the target with every single arrow, without missing a single shot.

The two men were focused on Mu Jingheng and had no idea that there was someone behind him who was using a crossbow.

The two men stared wide-eyed at the arrows that had pierced their bodies, seemingly unable to believe they had been killed by crossbow bolts even in death.

In the end, Mu Jingheng left one person behind, not only tying him up hand and foot but also gagging him.

As for the weapons and food they left behind, Mu Jingheng didn't waste them; he sorted them all out and carried them on his shoulder.

Mu Jingheng wouldn't have wanted to carry such a heavy load if he wasn't afraid the prisoner would discover their secret.

Mu Jinghuai never expected that his younger brother and sister-in-law would be so powerful. On their return trip, they not only wiped out the remaining enemies but also brought back a prisoner.

Mu Jingheng and Xu Xinning were worried that their comrade with a chest injury wouldn't be able to take it, so they found a cave to rest in as it was getting dark.

With Mu Jingheng's help, Xu Xinning first treated the wounds of a few comrades whose injuries were not serious, and then sent them to gather firewood.

When only Xu Xinning, Mu Jingheng, Mu Jinghuai, and the prisoner remained in the cave, Mu Jingheng unceremoniously knocked the prisoner unconscious first.

Mu Jingheng said seriously to Mu Jinghuai, "Brother, you stay at the cave entrance. Xin'er is going to perform surgery on your comrade. I'll assist her. You absolutely cannot let anyone in without our permission. You know your comrade's condition isn't very optimistic, and Xin'er's surgery can't afford the slightest negligence."

Mu Jinghuai: "It's almost dark, and it's even darker inside the cave. How can your sister-in-law perform surgery in such an environment?"

Mu Jinghuai had common sense; he didn't think such an environment was suitable for surgery. However, he had heard his grandfather and father boast about how amazing his sister-in-law was, so he was somewhat skeptical, assuming that his grandfather and father were just saying that to provoke him.

Mu Jingheng said seriously, "Isn't there me? I can help Xin'er. Brother, remember, you absolutely cannot come in without our permission. This surgery is no joke, you must guard this door well."

Mu Jinghuai knew that his younger brother usually seemed a bit unreliable, but he would never treat his comrades' lives as a joke.

Mu Jinghuai nodded and said, "Alright! As long as you don't let them in, I absolutely won't let anyone in."

After knocking out her comrade who had been shot in the chest, Xu Xinning brought him and Mu Jingheng into the space.

Xu Xinning placed the person directly on the operating table, while Mu Jingheng was miserably sent away by Xu Xinning to do some work.

Mu Jingheng killed a few rabbits and marinated them, then made steamed buns and dumplings.

They still had what they used to make, but if they kept taking things out without making anything new, they would eventually run out. So every time Mu Jingheng came in, he would prepare something in advance. In addition to steamed buns and mantou, he also made noodles, rice, and various stir-fries.

Rice, noodles, and various stir-fries can only be served when there are two people. Steamed buns and dumplings are the most convenient when there are other people around.

Xu Xinning spent a long time on this surgery, working on it until late at night. Fortunately, the time inside the space was different from that outside, otherwise the people waiting outside the cave would definitely have been exhausted.

After taking care of the patient, Xu Xinning had no choice but to take the person out of the space as a last resort; otherwise, leaving the person inside the space would have been the safest option.

So much time had passed inside, but only an hour or so had passed outside, and it wasn't completely dark yet.

Mu Jingheng came out with a flashlight in his hand. Before coming out, he had already taken out a lot of steamed buns and dumplings, as well as an aluminum pot.

Upon seeing Mu Jingheng emerge, Mu Jinghuai and the others immediately surrounded him, asking, "How did it go?"

Mu Jingheng: "It's alright, the surgery was a success. Xin'er said that as long as she gets enough rest, there won't be any problems."

The group of people finally breathed a sigh of relief.

In a short while, the group had gathered a lot of firewood, a lot of dry grass, some wild fruit to eat, and an owl.

Perhaps we really couldn't find anything else to eat right now, and this is all we have for the time being.

I don't know how they've been coping these past few days; they've all gotten so thin their eyes are sunken.

Seeing these things in their hands, Mu Jingheng was reminded of his past life. In the past, it was common for him to go for days without food or sleep when he was on a mission.

There was dripping water in the cave. When the group entered, Xu Xinning had already prepared a whole aluminum pot of water. Of course, this couldn't be the dripping water from the cave; it was water she brought out from her spatial dimension.

Several flashlights were placed high up, making the cave relatively well-lit.

The comrade who had just undergone surgery lay to one side, with a military overcoat under him.

When several people saw Xu Xinning busy, they immediately came over to help, and in no time they set up a stand that could hold an aluminum pot to boil water.

Since Mu Jingheng had given them some steamed buns to fill their stomachs before going back to deal with the last group of people, they weren't so hungry that they were too weak to move.

When Xu Xinning and Mu Jingheng roasted the rabbit over the fire, everyone was quite surprised.

Mu Jingheng remained calm and explained, "These were all hunted on the mountain by Xin'er and me when we were looking for you. We ate some, and this is all that was left. Luckily, we found you in time, otherwise you wouldn't have had this treat."

Xu Xinning glanced at Mu Jingheng and realized that this man had become a master of lying. If she hadn't been in the know, she would have believed him too.

"You two are really amazing!" someone praised.

Isn't that amazing?

Others go into the mountains, and so do they; others are well-fed and clothed, while they are like stray dogs, driven around aimlessly and nearly killed.

Comparing yourself to others is just asking for trouble!
