The Shen family's group was already exhausted after a whole day's 'long journey'.
So after having dinner and arranging the people to keep watch, the others rested.
Not long after lying down, Shen Yu'an sat up.
She drank too much water before going to bed and couldn't fall asleep, so she decided to find a place to take a break before going back to rest.
On the way back, Shen Yu'an stopped when passing a small ditch.
She seemed to hear some sound.
Shen Yu'an moved over carefully. It seemed to be a dry ditch covered with dead grass. Plus it was too dark, her eyes were almost dazzled but she didn't hear any sound coming from below.
Just as she was about to turn around and go back the same way, the soil under her feet suddenly loosened and she lost her balance and fell down.
Her instinctive reaction made her curl up her body to protect her head, and then she rolled down by inertia.
The ditch was not deep, and Shen Yu'an rolled for a while before stopping.
However, she did not feel the pain from falling to the ground as she had imagined. Instead, she felt that the ground beneath her was quite elastic.
elasticity?
How could a dry riverbed be elastic!
"Hmm~"
The next moment, a soft cry came from under her.
Oh my god, what the hell?!
Shen Yu'an jumped up reflexively and kicked the "unknown object" that she had just pressed with all her strength.
The unidentified object was kicked away and fell in another place with a loud bang.
Shen Yu'an was still very confident in her strength. She didn't believe that she would have to lie down for ten days or half a month after that kick just now.
But the next moment, a violent cough came from the direction of the unidentified object that she had just kicked away.
Shen Yu'an was shocked. Mullet roe, could it be that the unidentified object she kicked away just now was a person?
But after a burst of heart-wrenching coughs, the 'person' did not make any more noise.
Shen Yu'an took out a flashlight from the space and shone it carefully in that direction.
She discovered that the unidentified object she had just kicked away was indeed a person, and it looked particularly miserable.
Of course, it was even worse after she kicked me...
Shen Yu'an saw that the man was not on the ground at this moment, but was half embedded in the soil.
She twitched her lips guiltily. Could it be that this man was kicked to death by her?
She hurried over with a flashlight, grabbed the man's clothes and pulled him out with force.
There was a very obvious human-shaped depression in the dried mud.
Shen Yu'an quickly shone the flashlight elsewhere and thought silently in his heart: If you didn't see it, just pretend it didn't happen.
But she still carefully dragged the person up.
"Hey, are you still alive? Wake up!" Shen Yu'an patted his cheek gently.
But although the man was still breathing, there was no movement at all. He must have been knocked unconscious by her kick.
Shen Yu'an looked at him silently for a while, sighed, resignedly took out a mat from the space, and carried the person up.
After all, he had first served as a human cushion for her, and then was kicked unconscious by her. Out of guilt, Shen Yu'an still dragged the man back.
Zhang Wendong was relieved to see Shen Yuan finally come back after being out for so long, and asked, "Cousin, why did you take so long? Dalang and I were going to look for you."
Then he saw that Shen Yuan seemed to be pulling something behind him.
"Hey? What are you dragging behind you?"
"I just found it in the ditch. Brother, cousin, please help call Uncle Bai." Shen Yu'an said to them.
Not long after everyone lay down, they woke up when they heard voices outside and walked out of the tent one by one.
The first one to come out was Bai Miaoqing. She slept in the same tent with Shen Yu'an. She never came back after she went out, so she didn't sleep well either.
She asked, "An'an, what's wrong?"
When Shen Yu'an saw her coming out, he said in surprise, "Sister Miaoqing, come and see if this person can be saved?"
Bai Miaoqing walked over quickly. The others also came out at this time. Seeing that Shen Yu'an had gone out and brought someone back, they quickly used a tinder to light two kerosene lamps for lighting.
Old Lady Shen then used the light to see the person that Shen Yu'an dragged back, and asked in shock: "My dear granddaughter, why did you drag a dead person back?"
It was because this person looked too miserable that Mrs. Shen misunderstood.
Every good part of that man's body seemed to be gone. His clothes were almost torn into rags and looked bloody. The blood had dried on his body and face. Even his face could not be seen clearly. All that could be seen was that he had his eyes tightly closed.
Shen Yuan said somewhat awkwardly: "Grandma, he is not dead yet."
If she hadn't hit him and kicked him hard, maybe he would have been fine, but it's hard to say now.
It really adds insult to injury.
In order to relieve his guilt, Shen Yu'an quickly said, "Uncle Bai, Sister Miaoqing, come and see if you can save her."
The two of them quickly squatted on the ground to examine the person Shen Yu'an brought back.
But the more he examined Bai Wu, the tighter his brows furrowed, and Shen Yu'an's heart trembled as he watched.
She looked at Bai Wu anxiously, wondering if there was hope or not!!!
Bai Wu touched and pressed the body of the person on the ground for a long time before saying, "The injury is too serious, but the most fatal place is the blow to his chest. The person who injured him must have extremely strong internal strength. Now his meridians are disordered and his breath is weak..."
"Besides, he has a new wound on his head. Although the wound is very small, it is still bleeding. If the bleeding is not stopped in time, I am afraid he will die from excessive blood loss. But I have lost all the medicine I brought with me."
"So no one knows whether he can hold on. It all depends on his body's ability to recover and his desire to survive."
In short, it can be summed up in one sentence: the injury is too serious and there is no medicine, there is really nothing we can do to help, so just leave it to fate.
Shen Yu'an said guiltily, "I accidentally slipped into the ditch when I came back just now, and this brother hit me on the back. I didn't see clearly what it was at the time, and when I reacted, I kicked him away."
"Hehe...so the most serious injury wasn't caused by me, right?"
Everyone looked at her in shock. How much effort did this girl put in?
Didn’t you hear that Doctor Bai just said that the fatal injury was the blow to the chest? It turns out that it was caused by his eucalyptus.
Shen Yu'an felt even more guilty when everyone looked at her. She said quickly, "Uncle Bai, we have medicine with us. Please help me with the treatment."
As he said that, he hurried over to the carriage and took out a large bag of medicine.
This was actually something they prepared in advance. They had anticipated all kinds of accidents that might happen on the road, so they brought a lot of things in both variety and quantity.
