After searching around but not finding Zhang Bo, they decided to go and help the other villagers first, especially Chen Huahua.
Aunt Chen was a kind and loyal person, so she let Chen Huahua wait here for him to return from hunting. Otherwise, she wouldn't have stayed here.
Thinking of this, Lü Tu asked, "Yu Xi, do I still have the medicine I brewed today?"
"have!"
"Go and get some for me, I need to go rescue people first!"
"good!"
At this moment, the villagers came out one after another, looking at the Wuhuan people with lingering panic. Seeing that Song Yuxi had difficulty moving, Wu Lao Er's wife, a neighbor, took the initiative to say, "Sister, let me help you back."
"Thank you, sister."
Soon, cries of agony filled the village. Many families had lost loved ones. Lu Tu roughly counted at least a dozen people who had died, and he secretly made a grudge against them.
They finally found Chen Huahua at the very back of the crowd. Aunt Chen and Huahua's mother were holding her little head, tears streaming down their faces.
Lu Tu pushed aside the person blocking his way and knelt down in front of Chen Huahua to check her injuries.
"Brother Lu Tu," Chen Huahua called out weakly.
"My dear brother Hua Hua can cure you, so please don't fall asleep!"
Chen Huahua shook her head slightly: "Brother Lü Tu, I have a favor to ask of you."
"Go ahead and say it." Lu Tu's hands didn't stop moving. First, he told Aunt Chen to boil water, and then he told Hua Hua's mother to start a fire.
"Could you give my mother and grandmother some meat to eat? My mother's illness will get better if she eats meat."
Upon hearing this, Hua Hua's mother could no longer control her emotions and burst into tears. The surrounding villagers could not bear to see this scene.
Although it's true that children have a hard time growing up these days, it's really heartbreaking that Chen Huahua died at less than 10 years old.
While heating the dagger over the fire, Lü Tu coaxed her, "Of course you can eat it! And you'll get up too, so we can eat together!"
Hua Hua's pale face finally broke into a smile: "Thank you, Brother Lü Tu."
Lu Tu's movements were incredibly fast. The arrow pierced Chen Huahua's chest. Fortunately, it didn't damage her internal organs, but her physical condition was too poor, and she had lost too much blood.
Lu Tu looked at Hua Hua Niang and whispered, "Help her up and hold her down!"
Hua Hua's mother had originally planned to give up. After all, such severe injuries would be fatal even for an adult, let alone a child. Even the doctors in the city couldn't cure it.
But seeing Lü Tu's appearance, which seemed to indicate that he had not given up and was still planning to treat Hua Hua, she rekindled her hope for life and did as Lü Tu said.
Lu Tu used his sharp dagger to cut off the arrowhead protruding from Chen Huahua's chest, and then suddenly pulled the arrow shaft out of Chen Huahua's back.
Chen Huahua fainted instantly from the pain. Lu Tu urged sharply, "Quickly bring a cloth that has been boiled in hot water!"
Aunt Chen arrived at this moment, carrying a ceramic pot. Lu Tu took the pot, ignored the high temperature of the boiling water, reached in and grabbed the strip of cloth, wrung it out, and used it to bandage Xiao Huahua.
After doing all this, Song Yuxi arrived and handed over the allicin extracted by Lü Tu. Lü Tu used a spoon to pry open Chen Huahua's mouth and put the allicin in.
He instructed Hua Hua's mother to take her back to rest and recuperate; whether she lived or died was up to fate!
After Lu Tu finished doing all this with a grim face, he had never felt such a strong killing intent. Although the Wuhuan people were hateful, bastards like Zhang Bo were even more despicable!
Seeing how skilled Lü Tu was, many injured villagers nearby immediately knelt on the ground, pleading, "Lü Tu, please save my husband! I'll kowtow to you!"
"Lu Tu, we were wrong before. As long as you save my mother, I'm willing to be your slave!"
Seeing the villagers kneeling before him, all of them family members of the injured, Lü Tu realized that in the face of matters of principle, a few occasional arguments were trivial. These people were not as excessive as Zhang Bo, so Lü Tu naturally would not stand idly by.
He turned to Song Yuxi and said, "Take some men and cook that deer meat." After all, the reason the Wuhuan soldiers attacked the village was indirectly due to Lü Tu. This was not the time to dwell on such matters; it was necessary to unite all available forces as quickly as possible.
They did their best to remove the arrows and bandage their wounds. Torches were lit all over the village, and the whole village was busy in an orderly manner under Lu Tu's command, some boiling water and others cooking meat.
Just then, the sound of rapid hoofbeats came from afar again, and just by listening to the sound, one could tell that there were many people.
The villagers quickly dropped what they were doing and made a hasty attempt to flee!
Lu Tu put the injured person down and said to Hua Hua Niang, "Bandage everyone up like I did!"
He then shouted to the villagers present, "If there are any brave souls in Kuishan Village, pick up your weapons from the ground and come with me to fight off the enemy!"
The villagers exchanged glances. The fact that they could hear the sound of horses' hooves without running away was already a major psychological breakthrough, especially considering that Lü Tu had single-handedly killed three Wuhuan cavalrymen like a war god.
Seeing that Lü Tu was going to lead them to fight the enemy, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.
"What the hell!" Everyone turned to look at the source of the voice. Zhao Laowu, his face filled with shame and indignation, stepped forward and picked up a long sword belonging to a Wuhuan man from the ground: "My mother was killed by the Wuhuan people, and I must avenge her!"
"Count me in! My wife was also killed by the Wuhuan people!"
"Me too!"
Five men stepped forward one after another. Lu Tu looked at the five men, who were of mixed quality and whose physiques were not as sallow and thin as the others, and shouted loudly, "If you're real men, follow me!"
After saying this, Lü Tu slung his bow and arrows over his shoulder, grabbed his long sword, and ran toward the village entrance.
