"Team, do we still want to continue up the mountain now?"
He Guangrong: "No need. Fang Kai, you go up the mountain and inform everyone not to worry. Our reinforcements will be here soon and will be able to clear the road and take everyone down the mountain."
After meeting Gao Changhe on the road, He Guangming and his team drove to the mud river, got off the car, and asked the driver to drive back to report the situation.
If the road is not built, there will be nowhere to accommodate the villagers if we blindly bring them down.
Because the roads were blocked, the army's supplies could not be transported in.
The next morning, the rain was a little lighter.
Just as the sky was getting light, someone came up from below to inform them that they could go down the mountain, and a team of people came to help everyone move their things.
The loving and respectable soldiers in green clothes helped the villagers carry their luggage, carried their children, supported the elderly, and led everyone slowly down the mountain.
In places where the road conditions are bad, there are people watching nearby and carefully helping everyone get through.
Although Ning Xi didn't need to be carried or supported, she felt inexplicably moved when she saw this scene.
No matter when, these lovely and respectable soldiers can always give people a full sense of security.
Everyone went down the mountain smoothly. The villagers were arranged to get on the bus and taken to the resettlement center in the county. The relevant departments had been notified in advance.
All the houses in the village were destroyed. Rebuilding will take time. Perhaps this place is no longer suitable for living.
In other words, they have lost their homes and may need to relocate to another place to resettle.
Looking at the devastated village that looked nothing like it used to be, the villagers lowered their heads and wiped away their tears silently.
After living here for several lifetimes, everything is suddenly destroyed. No one can accept it easily.
Despite this, the villagers quickly calmed down, thanked the soldiers with red eyes, and then went to the soldiers' wives to express their gratitude to Ning Xi and the soldiers' wives solemnly.
Ning Xi, in particular, was held by the hands of the villagers and thanked profusely.
"Comrade Ning, we...ah!" Ma Er hesitated for a long time, not knowing what to say.
He wanted to say that the people in his village were definitely not ungrateful, but now everyone was empty-handed and had nothing substantial to offer.
Saying too many good words is empty.
Ning Xi knew what he wanted to say and comforted him, "You've already thanked me. Live well and strive to live a better life as a reward for me."
She ran down desperately to inform everyone, not with the intention of asking for anything in return, but just to feel at ease.
Besides, if they hadn't saved everyone, they wouldn't have found the cave, and she wouldn't have gotten those two extremely old treasures.
Especially the Selaginella that the system shows as "X year", it has another name, called the Nine-Lives Resurrection Grass, and it should be very valuable.
After all, when I went to Lin Siping's house with the system to look for treasures, there were so many things, but the system didn't ask for such a high inspection price.
......
Because the two were husband and wife, when they returned to the guesthouse, Zhao Huaiyan naturally moved into Ning Xi's room.
The two went to the bathhouse to take a hot bath, had a hearty meal, and then lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
"Xiaoxi, wake up..."
In a daze, Ning Xi felt like she was being switched around. She wanted to open her eyes, but found that her eyelids felt like they were being pressed down by a thousand-pound stone.
Zhao Huaiyan was awakened by Ning Xi's heat.
The bed in the guesthouse was not big, and he was tall, so it was a bit crowded to sleep on it, but they were too sleepy to realize it.
As a result, he broke out in a sweat. When he woke up, he found that he was holding a small stove in his arms. Ning Xi's temperature was abnormally high.
I called him several times but he wouldn't wake up.
He quickly picked up the person, asked someone for directions to the hospital, and immediately ran towards the hospital.
The doctor glanced at the thermometer, his face heavy with worry: "She has a fever. Arrange for her to be given an IV drip immediately."
The fever reached 41 degrees!
"cold--"
The drip had just been put on, and the quilt on the bed was quite thin. Ning Xi felt drowsy as if she were wearing a skirt and walking in the snow, and she couldn't help shivering.
Zhao Huaiyan asked the doctor to bring a few more quilts to cover her, and filled a hot water bottle for her to hold. Only then did she gradually feel better.
"It's so hot—"
After a while, Ning Xi regained consciousness a little, and felt like she was being roasted in the stove. In a trance, she felt like she was still next to the fire in the cave.
Zhao Huaiyan quickly wiped the sweat off her face and neck with a warm towel.
I also touched her forehead and found that the temperature had gone down.
After the drip, Ning Xi's high fever subsided. Her little face wrinkled up and she fell asleep groaning.
When she woke up, it was already dark. The door was closed and the light from the corridor came in.
"What's wrong with me?" She tried to sit up but found she had no strength.
My whole body is limp, a bit like when I first went up the mountain and entered the cave.
Ning Xi looked around and soon found herself in the hospital. There was a dark head beside the bed. It noticed her movement and slowly raised its head.
"Awake? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?" Zhao Huaiyan stood up and touched Ning Xi's forehead, ignoring the numbness in his feet caused by squatting for a long time.
Ning Xi shook her head with difficulty: "No strength..."
I don’t know if it’s because I was sick, but I suddenly became pretentious. I subconsciously stretched out my arms towards Zhao Huaiyan, and my voice was a little coquettish: "Hug~"
Zhao Huaiyan quickly took her into his arms.
"Ningning, are you feeling unwell? Tell me and I'll go find a doctor."
Ning Xi still shook her head, nestled in his arms without saying a word, feeling lazy, without the strength and not wanting to move.
"Host, how are you?" The system sensed that Ning Xi had woken up and asked her in its mind.
But it didn't get any feedback for a long time.
I quickly took the initiative to check Ning Xi's physical condition.
You don’t know until you see it, and you’ll be shocked when you see it.
"Host, do you feel weak all over and your lower abdomen is bloated now?"
Ning Xi said weakly: "Hmm..."
"Is this the aftereffect of my physical exhaustion? Didn't I get better in the cave?"
"That's temporary, but there's something urgent right now. Your period is about to start, so I suggest you prepare as soon as possible."
What the system didn't say was that Ning Xi had been in a state of tension since she went up the mountain, and she kept telling herself in her heart that she must not fall down, so it secretly used its energy to restore her body.
But its energy effect is only temporary and cannot really play a role in recovery. After a period of time, Ning Xi's body is still overdrawn and extremely depleted.
Ning Xi's pupils trembled, and she didn't know where she got the strength from, but she actually pushed Zhao Huaiyan away.
He asked puzzledly, "What's wrong?"
"Can I be discharged from the hospital now?"
When it comes to matters related to her body, Zhao Huaiyan is particularly resolute:
"No, you need to stay in the hospital for observation. The doctor said you're too tired. You've fallen ill because you let down your guard. Tell me if you have any problem."
