"Sixth brother, sixth brother."

Ouyang Zhenyu called out to the unconscious Lao Liu, but his voice was clearly useless to Lao Liu in his current state.

Ouyang Zhenyu dragged the person to the cave entrance and began a rapid examination by the moonlight.

The sixth brother's injuries were very serious.

Some of them are external injuries, and some are internal injuries.

The most serious injury was that the bullets from the gun hit three places on his body. These three places were not exactly vital organs, but they were still quite serious.

The most important thing is to stop the bleeding and remove the bullet as soon as possible.

The sixth brother's life was truly in danger. At this point, even Ouyang Zhenyu, a skilled cook, couldn't make a meal without rice.

Even if he had weapons, they would have been taken by the other party long ago, and he couldn't dig out the spent cartridges with his bare hands.

Just then, a voice was heard from next door.

"He was shot, you have to dig the bullet out."

I have a knife here, come and take it.

"Quickly dig the bullet out. If he survives after stopping the bleeding, he's lucky. If he doesn't, that's fate."

It was actually a woman's voice. Ouyang Zhenyu turned his head and realized that there were more than a dozen holes dug side by side next to their hole.

All those holes were closed with large iron gates, but a hand could stick out through the gaps next to the gates.

That hand was a slender woman's hand.

Because he was so thin, all that could be seen was his bones.

However, he was indeed holding a small knife in his hand. It was a fruit knife, which looked very small and was foldable.

If you hide it, it's quite possible that you won't be discovered.

Ouyang Zhenyu stepped forward, took the knife, and said in a low voice,

"Thanks!"

"No need to thank me. We are all pitiful people. Anyone who is caught here has a slim chance of survival."

My husband died the same way, you'd better save him quickly.

The woman's voice quickly faded away, indicating that she had left. Ouyang Zhenyu returned to Lao Liu with a small fruit knife and tore open his clothes.

There are no disinfection methods available right now, so even if you have amazing skills, it won't work.

Removing the bullet through surgery isn't difficult; the real challenge is how Lao Liu will survive afterward.

Ouyang Zhenyu used a small knife to open the wound and dig out the three bullets.

Fortunately, none of the three bullets were in particularly dangerous positions. At least none of them hit internal organs, vital organs, or blood vessels.

Ouyang Zhenyu tore off the vest he was wearing underneath his clothes.

Thanks to this cotton two-strand vest, and the fact that he was usually very clean and had washed it just before leaving, he was able to make a good impression.

We can't expect too much right now. Compared to the outer clothes he and Lao Liu are wearing, this vest is already very clean.

They tore the cloth into strips and used them to wrap Lao Liu's wound. Looking at his leg, it was covered in blood from the bite.

If we don't apply some medicine, even disregarding whether there's rabies, this wound alone could cause Lao Liu to have a high fever and die quickly.

They set his twisted and fractured arm back into place.

At the same time, use strips of cloth to tie the bag tightly and securely.

The pain of bone setting was so intense that even while unconscious, Lao Liu groaned in agony.

However, the person still hasn't woken up, which shows how dangerous the situation is.

Ouyang Zhenyu moved the person onto the straw, but he was a little worried because Lao Liu was already running a fever.

Having suffered such severe injuries, all the wounds are likely to become seriously infected. In this kind of weather, if Lao Liu gets an infection, he will surely die.

However, Ouyang Zhenyu couldn't find any effective medicine right now, and somewhat frustrated, he opened his online store.

His online store sells a lot of things, but he has never redeemed any physical items.

Generally speaking, in Ouyang Zhenyu's mind, it's not worth it to use points to redeem physical goods.

Every skill he redeemed would eventually become incredibly expensive, so he used all his points to redeem skills. However, he never expected that one day he would actually need the items.

I looked at the medicines in the store.

The potent anti-inflammatory medicine costs 10 points, which is five times more expensive than exchanging for advanced skills.

But at this point, it seems there is no other choice.

Ouyang Zhenyu gritted his teeth and decided to treat it as if he had redeemed a skill.

We gave Lao Liu a strong anti-inflammatory medicine, and he could still swallow it.

Ouyang Zhenyu finally managed to swallow the pill, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.

I don't know if this strong anti-inflammatory medicine will work, but at this point I can only try anything, and I hope the product from the store will work.

Only now did Ouyang Zhenyu realize that he was starving. He hadn't eaten anything for a day and a night since he was captured yesterday.

In addition, the other party intentionally withheld their food and water.

Thinking back to that emaciated woman from earlier, it suddenly dawned on him that these people had no intention of letting them leave.

They are fed but not given enough to eat, and they are forced to do heavy physical labor. If they get sick, they are basically just waiting to die there. These people will never provide them with medical care.

Think about the people I saw during the day; every single one of them looked utterly lifeless.

They worked like zombies, and everyone was thin and weak, looking listless.

During the day, I saw a woman carrying a basket fall to the ground.

He was thrown directly into the cave by the overseer. Now that I think about it...

These people's meals are probably not at fixed times and in fixed quantities every day.

If the goal is to prevent these laborers from escaping, they will certainly be starved.

But Ouyang Zhenyu still doesn't understand what these people are doing.

Ouyang Zhenyu gritted his teeth and used another five points to redeem a pack of compressed biscuits.

I've heard that compressed biscuits are the most filling, and they're the cheapest food item in any shopping mall.

The other bread costs ten points, and after calculating, bread is definitely not as filling as compressed biscuits.

Ouyang Zhenyu gave up his appetite and exchanged for compressed biscuits.

Looking at the large bag of compressed biscuits in front of him, Ouyang Zhenyu finally managed a smile.

This system is finally starting to look a bit human.

These compressed biscuits are supposed to be a bag, but it's a huge bag that weighs about two pounds.

This packaging is moisture-resistant, waterproof, and easy to store.

The main advantage is the large quantity, which is filling. If you can exchange five points for two pounds of compressed biscuits, that can last a long time.

This stuff is very filling.

I tore open the packaging and took out a cookie.

It looked unappetizing, and it tasted just as bland in my mouth, like chewing on a pile of wood chips.

The main thing is that it's a bit choking.

Ouyang Zhenyu was a little annoyed. This online store was really shameless. At least make your compressed biscuits taste a little better.

He remembered seeing videos of survival show streamers selling compressed biscuits in various flavors, including milk powder flavor.

At least make sure the taste is good.

I had no choice but to exchange five points for a bucket of water.

This time, the mall has clearly gone awry again; this bucket of water only contains 1.5L, which is just 1.5L of mineral water.

It's obviously much less valuable than a five-point compressed biscuit.
