In the blink of an eye, Ning Daya noticed the large knife aimed at Jiang Yuwei. Without thinking, she pushed Jiang Yuwei away and shielded her with her own body.

The broadsword struck Ning Daya directly. Seeing this, Liu panicked and splashed the chili water in her hand haphazardly onto the man's face.

Seeing that Daya was injured, Ning Wan became even more furious and shot an arrow through the man's chest, causing him to fall to the ground.

Jiang Yuwei then noticed that Ning Daya had been injured while saving her, and was bleeding profusely, her clothes stained red. Jiang Yuwei quickly took out spiritual spring water to wash Ning Daya's wounds, and then took out a cloth to stop the bleeding and bandage her wounds. She finally managed to stop the bleeding.

But then Ning Daya fainted. Jiang Yuwei couldn't care less about anything else at this moment. She first fed Ning Daya some spiritual spring water, then laid her down flat. Afterwards, she handed the dagger that Ning Daya was clutching tightly to Liu Shi and said:

"Here's the dagger. If anyone dares to get on our oxcart later, just kill him!"

At this moment, Jiang Yuwei was blinded by rage. She no longer felt sorry for these refugees; she only wanted to kill them all!

Jiang Yuwei then said to Ning Wan:

"Wan'er, we don't have many arrows left. Only shoot at the living ones. Shoot them all in the left chest, preferably to kill them instantly!"

Ning Wan nodded obediently upon hearing this and continued shooting at those people.

Jiang Yuwei couldn't care less about anything else at this moment; she only wanted to kill.

She's not some saintly, innocent girl; she's always been incredibly selfish. Anyone who dares to hurt the people around her will pay a bloody price.

After a fierce battle, the refugees were soon unable to hold on any longer, and they were lying sprawled on the ground.

They were already emaciated from hunger and unable to fight, relying solely on their numbers and weapons to suppress Jiang Yuwei's group. Now, with most of their men dead and the fighting going on for so long, they were long overwhelmed.

Jiang Yuwei also noticed that the refugees seemed to be running out of steam. At the same time, she and Ning Wan were running out of arrows, and even Gou Dan and Ning Huaizhi were almost out of mud bullets.

So Jiang Yuwei shouted at the refugees:

"Whoever wants to die can stay here; those who don't want to die have already run away!"

This group of refugees was a patchwork of different groups, so they had no sense of cohesion.

Upon hearing Jiang Yuwei's words, everyone became frightened. Coupled with their already exhausted state and witnessing so many of their companions dying before their eyes, none of them wanted to continue.

A group of refugees scattered and fled like birds and beasts.

Seeing that the refugees had all left, Jiang Yuwei quickly jumped off the oxcart, picked up three large knives, and handed them to Old Man Ning. She then said to Uncle Cai and Ning Chunlin:

"The journey north must be very difficult. We didn't prepare any weapons for you when we came. Take this knife for now; you'll need it for self-defense in the future."

Then Jiang Yuwei called on Liu Shi and Gou Dan to pick up the arrows that had been shot and collect all the mud balls they could find.

By this time, it was already broad daylight. Seeing that Ning Daya still showed no signs of waking up, Jiang Yuwei hurriedly called out to everyone:

"Hurry up and pack your things. We need to get out of here quickly. Daya is injured and needs to be taken to the clinic for treatment as soon as possible."

Tie Zhu, who was tidying up the bedding on the ground, was shocked by Jiang Yuwei's words. He hurriedly went to Jiang Yuwei's oxcart and anxiously asked:

"Sister Yuwei, how badly is Daya injured? Let me see Daya!"

Seeing Tie Zhu's urgency, Jiang Yuwei quickly stepped aside to let him come forward and take a look.

"Tiezhu, there's no use in you being anxious now. I'm even more anxious than you. Hurry up and pack your things. We need to get to the next town as soon as possible to get Daya's injury treated."

Upon hearing this, Tie Zhu hurriedly nodded, weeping, and said:

"Okay, Sister Yuwei, I'll go pack right away, let's set off immediately."

As he spoke, Tie Zhu trembled as he began to gather up the scattered grain and bedding on the ground, but to his surprise, the more he rushed, the more chaotic his actions became, resulting in a messy collection of things.

Seeing this, Aunt Zhou quickly pressed down on Tie Zhu's hand and said:

"Tiezhu, don't accept it, let me accept it. You go and wait in the car."

Tie Zhu, his eyes red, looked at Aunt Zhou and said through tears:

"Mother, Da Ya is injured."

Aunt Zhou nodded and said:

"Mother knows. Go wait for Mother in the carriage."

As she spoke, Aunt Zhou quickly gathered the things on the ground and loaded them onto the oxcart. Seeing that everyone had finished, Jiang Yuwei hurriedly called out to Ning Huaizhi:

"Huaizhi, let's hurry!"

Ning Huaizhi nodded and drove the oxcart forward. The group inquired along the way and arrived at Ninghe Town.

Jiang Yuwei found a clinic and quickly carried Ning Daya inside. The doctor, seeing how badly Ning Daya was injured, took her pulse first.

"This girl is seriously injured; she's probably in critical condition!"

After taking her pulse, the doctor said gravely to Jiang Yuwei.

Before Jiang Yuwei could speak, Tie Zhu, who was standing to the side, suddenly knelt down before the doctor upon hearing this.

"Doctor, please, please save Daya. I'll do anything you ask if you can save her."

Upon hearing Tie Zhu's words, the doctor quickly took a few steps back and sighed helplessly:

"Get up first. I really can't save this girl right now."

As he spoke, the doctor stroked his beard and continued:

"If you sincerely want to save this girl, there is a way. You can go and ask the skilled healer Zhu."

Upon hearing this, Tie Zhu excitedly exclaimed:

"Okay, okay, Doctor, where is this miracle worker Zhu? How can we find him?"

The doctor sighed and said:

"This man usually lives at No. 36 Zhu Lane, but he always appears and disappears mysteriously. You might not be able to find him if you go there now, but you can still try your luck."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuwei quickly helped Tiezhu up and nodded to the doctor, saying:

"Thank you, doctor. We'll go see him right away."

As she spoke, Jiang Yuwei first fed Ning Daya another cup of spiritual spring water, and then instructed Tiezhu to carry Ning Daya to the oxcart.

Jiang Yuwei was about to leave when she heard the doctor say:

“That so-called miracle worker Zhu has an eccentric temper. Even if you find him, he might not be able to help you treat that girl.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuwei turned around, bowed to the doctor, and said:

"Thank you for the reminder, doctor. I will do my best to save Daya no matter what."
