Bai Shuang turned on her flashlight and shone it forward. Sure enough, she had guessed correctly; there were explosive packs on their backs.
If they succeed, the building will be incomplete and become a defective product, and who knows what will happen to me and Lu Yu.
Just as he was about to finish them off, Lu Yu suddenly shielded Bai Shuang behind him and fired his gun at the same time. With a "bang," two gunshots rang out simultaneously, and a man on the ground had his head blown open.
Lu Yu was also hit in the shoulder by a bullet. He gritted his teeth in pain, but pretended to be fine.
Seeing that he was trying hard to endure the discomfort, Bai Shuang quickly took a bottle of spiritual spring water and drank it before feeling a little better.
Although he was wearing a bulletproof vest, a high-speed spinning bullet hitting the fibers could still cause internal injuries.
Lu Yu just took a bullet for her.
\"Thanks!\"
Lu Yu smiled. "Shouldn't you repay me with your body?"
Bai Shuang glared at him. "Dream on!"
This person is really something, still making sarcastic remarks even when he's in so much pain?
That person must have held his breath and not been knocked unconscious when Bai Shuang was applying the sleeping potion, then pretended to be unconscious and took the opportunity to shoot at them.
There were four people in total. Lu Yu used a knife to cut the straps of each package and took out the explosive packs. Bai Shuang checked each package for any danger.
The two focused their attention, checked the corridor, and then looked out the window on the 9th floor for a while. After confirming that everything was alright, Bai Shuang urged him to go to the room to check his injuries.
Seeing her nervous expression, Lu Yu's lips curled up. "Feeling sorry for her?"
"I'm only doing this because you took a bullet for me, why are you worried about it?"
She remained stubbornly silent, and Lu Yu didn't expose her, knowing that one day he would win her over.
I took off my clothes layer by layer. In winter, I wore thick clothes, and in the end, I was left with only a thermal underwear.
Bai Shuang was a doctor, so she was concerned about his injury and didn't feel embarrassed. She pulled open the shirt on his shoulder and went to check. Sure enough, there was a large bruise.
As I gently pressed the surrounding area, Lu Yu twitched slightly from time to time, feeling a tingling, numb, and swollen sensation.
Thankfully, the bulletproof vest is of good quality. "The bones are fine, but there's some soft tissue damage around them. Avoid strenuous activity recently."
Bai Shuang quickly applied her specially made blood-activating and muscle-relaxing ointment, gently massaged it, then applied a bruise and sprain ointment made by her space, and gave him a Bai Shi Hu Li San tablet.
Lu Yu dressed again. It was 4 a.m. He walked out of the room and ordered his guards to signal a retreat.
A few minutes later, people returned one after another. Bai Shuang nervously counted the number of people and was relieved to find that no one was missing.
First, give each person a cup of spiritual spring water to restore their strength and repair their wounds.
"This water contains precious medicinal herbs; everyone should have a cup."
"Thank you!"
Dr. Bai's medicine is something that everyone in Lu Yujun who has been injured has drunk. It's practically a miracle drink. After drinking it, you'll feel refreshed, most of your fatigue will disappear, and the pain from your wounds will stop immediately.
It might be someone's family secret recipe, and no one would tell anyone about it.
Three of them had their bulletproof vests hit by bullets. Bai Shuang checked and found no broken bones. She asked a nearby soldier to help apply medicine, and then she went to perform surgery on one of the wounded soldiers in the arm.
After eating something and resting for a while, it got light. Everyone went out again to check for any leftover guns, bullets, bulletproof vests, or other items.
Looking at the spoils, Lu Yu asked Bai Shuang, "See if there's anything you need, pick some out."
Bai Shuang looked around and realized she had collected a total of 7 boxes of bullets. She took one box; these were consumables, and every bullet she used was one less available.
She didn't ask for anything else. All the weapons for this conflict were provided by Lu Yu, and their military camp wasn't well-supplied in that regard.
By this time, Bai Jiu and the others had finished dealing with things over there. The potatoes had been distributed, and the embroidery needles had been brought back by snowmobile.
The snow leopard was the first to run up, wagging its tail to Bai Shuang for praise. She patted its head.
"Snow Leopard is really something, add two chicken drumsticks."
"Woof woof woof woof," no, it needs to be four.
"Okay, four it is, but we can't finish them all in one meal. Leave two for the next meal."
The guy was finally satisfied. He rubbed against Bai Shuang's legs and then went to play with the soldiers.
The survivors who walked out of the building were horrified when they saw the corpses on the ground, the severed limbs scattered everywhere, and the crater in the snow.
They remembered what Bai Jiu had said yesterday: that bringing them together was actually to protect them, and everyone was grateful.
Bai Shuang said to Lu Yu, "Let them collect the bodies. The soldiers are tired. I have potatoes; give them some as payment."
Lu Yu nodded. "Let's get the potatoes from the military camp. We can't always let you bring them."
Bai Shuang nodded. If he wanted to take it from the military camp, then so be it.
When the survivors in the neighborhood heard that there were potatoes as wages, they all went down to help, and there were also spoils of war.
They rushed to take off the robbers' clothes, which were good for keeping warm. In the post-apocalyptic world where resources were scarce, who cared about such things? Even if they didn't wear them, they could exchange them for food.
With many hands making light work, the entire neighborhood was quickly cleaned up. The bodies and remains were hauled away on sleds and burned in one place. Even the snow crater created by the explosion was filled in with snow from the surrounding area.
Just then, they saw the soldiers bringing over potatoes, and excitedly lined up to receive them. Each person got three pounds, plus the potatoes they had earned the night before, enough to last them for a while.
Everyone worked hard all night, especially those who were on stakeout outside. Besides working hard, it was also very cold, so we tried to make breakfast as substantial as possible.
Bai Shuang prepared hot steamed buns, millet porridge, stir-fried dehydrated vegetables, celery with cured pork, fried salted fish, and stir-fried mushrooms for everyone. Other dishes were not convenient to bring out.
