The night is dark and the moon is barely visible.

Hua Xiao and Hua Li were waiting anxiously in the Hua family courtyard, pacing back and forth restlessly. It was late at night and the sound of cicadas and birds chirping on the branches could be heard from time to time.

I don’t know how long it took, but suddenly, a rustling and noisy sound of footsteps came from outside the yard.

“You’re back?!”

Hearing the sound, Hua Li jumped up suddenly, ran over from a distance, and opened the closed gate.

In the second half of the night, the sky gradually darkened and gradually became lighter. After the darkest point, as time passed, the distant horizon seemed to gradually brighten.

Hua Li opened the door, stood outside the threshold, and tiptoed. From a distance, he saw Hua Shi and Xie Mingchi, each carrying a person on their backs, as if they had found their second brother.

"Second...Second brother..." Hua Li whispered, stammering.

After walking down the winding mountain road, Hua Shi was exhausted and sweating profusely while carrying the unconscious Hua Yu on his back.

Hua Yu was nearly two years younger than her. Due to long-term malnutrition and a thin body, he didn't weigh much. Even after walking all the way, even though he was within his tolerance, he was still very tired.

After finally seeing the Hua family courtyard just around the corner, Hua Shi let out a breath, quickly carried Hua Yu into the courtyard, and put the unconscious person on the kang bed.

Hua Xiao and Hua Li held their breath and followed her without daring to breathe. When they saw their second brother in a dishevel with blood all over his face, their eyes became moist and red, and they were at a loss.

"Second brother...what's wrong with second brother?" Hua Xiao panicked and asked in a low voice.

After Xie Mingchi carried the strange man into another room and put him on the kang, he came out of the room. At this time, he could clearly feel that his clothes on the back were wet with blood.

The strange man was injured and so much blood flowed that it soaked his thin clothes.

Xie Mingchi walked to the beam outside the house, looked at the sky which was already getting light, and said to Hua Shi in the house, "Ashi, I'll go call He Yaopo."

Hua Shi was cleaning the blood that had overflowed from the back of Hua Yu's head. He sighed and told him to go and come back quickly.

Hua Yu's current symptoms seem to indicate that he has fallen into shock due to excessive blood loss. If the bleeding is not stopped, he will probably die from excessive blood loss.

"Xiaoxiao, go boil some hot water. Xiaoli, go get a clean wooden basin from outside."

Hua Shi quickly gave instructions to the twins who were standing behind her, frightened by the scene and a little confused.

Hearing Hua Shi's voice, the brother and sister barely came back to their senses, nodded, and ran out quickly.

After Hua Li brought a wooden basin, Hua Shi found an excuse to send Hua Li out. When she was the only one left in the room with Hua Yu lying unconscious on the kang, Hua Shi drew the spring water from his palm and poured it into the wooden basin.

The warm spring water soon filled a basin. Hua Shi wet a piece of cloth and cleaned the exposed wounds on his hands and feet, and used the spring water to wipe away the dirty gravel, pebbles and blood on the outside.

The wounds on the arms were not deep, but the serious ones were on the back of the head and the already lame leg and ankle. They looked like they had been bitten by the claws of a wild beast, with the skin torn and the flesh exposed. It made one's scalp numb just by looking at it.

Hua Shi didn't dare touch the bloody wound, but he couldn't let it bleed anymore. He poured the cleaned blood out the window and shouted from outside, "Hua Zhu, bring me the bag with the medicine."

Those two bottles of hemostatic medicine I bought in Taohua Town yesterday should be effective. I’ll sprinkle some on the wound to stop the bleeding first.

Hua Zhu responded hurriedly and trotted in with her bag.

Hua Shi took over, scooped out a large lump of medicine, and covered the bleeding wounds on the back of Hua Yu's head and ankles. When the black medicine was applied, the unconscious person shivered in pain when the medicine touched the wounds, and his brows unconsciously frowned.

Due to excessive blood loss, Hua Yu's hands and feet were extremely cold. As the hot water was brought over, Hua Shi used a wet hot towel to cover his hands and feet, and then turned over a thick quilt to cover him...

Hua Shi was busy taking care of Hua Yu and had no time to visit the other injured stranger lying in the next room.

The man's wounds seemed to be no less serious than Hua Yu's. She asked the only older person, Hua Song, who looked silent and steady, to go over and clean the man's wounds and apply medicine on him. As for what happened next, Hua Shi had no time to think about it.

Because Hua Yu's condition looked very bad. Her hands and feet were cold at the beginning, and now she was still shivering even though she was covered with a thick quilt.

She took a closer look and saw that Hua Yu's forehead had been covered in layers of cold sweat. She wiped it again and again with a hot towel, but the sweat still didn't stop. Her trembling body even began to twitch...

Hua Xiao and Hua Li, who were standing nearby, were so frightened by their second brother's increasingly pale face that they burst into tears and sobbed softly, not knowing what to do.

"Second brother...what happened to him?"

Hua Xiao choked up and looked at Hua Shiwen with tears in her eyes.

Hua Shi frowned silently. The situation was very bad. The wound had stopped bleeding, but it twitched from time to time, looking like it was having a spasm of pain, or maybe for some other reason.

She reached out and flipped Hua Yu's tightly closed eyelids. His eyeballs rolled back and his consciousness was blurred...

"Go to the door and see if He Yaopo is here?" Hua Shi said.

There was no other way. There was no other doctor in the village. He was injured so badly that there was no other way except to call He Yaopo to see him.
