Xu Jianguo got up and walked out quickly. He saw Li Yuqiang standing outside the yard. He was covered in dirt and his clothes were stained with blood. He hurried over and asked, "Brother Yuqiang, what's wrong with you? What happened?"
"Jianguo, several wild boars came down from the mountains and ran into the fields to eat the wheat. Uncle Erniu encountered them when he was leading us on patrol. In order to save Dongzi, he was hit in the back by a wild boar!"
"What? Is the person serious? Forget it, wait for me, I'll go with you to take a look!" Xu Jianguo returned to the house, put a cotton jacket on Funiu, picked her up and walked out.
"Haha, where are we going?" Funiu asked, confused.
"Uncle Erniu is injured, let's go over and take a look!" Xu Jianguo explained and followed Li Yuqiang towards the brigade headquarters.
"Brother Yuqiang, where is the wild boar? Is it killed?" Xu Jianguo asked.
"We killed one and the rest ran away!" said Li Yuqiang.
While the two were talking, they arrived at the brigade headquarters. Xu Jianguo walked in holding Funiu. As soon as he entered the room, he heard a woman crying. Xu Jianguo knew that it should be the voice of Li Erniu's wife Wang Yan.
Pushing through the crowd and squeezing in, Xu Jianguo saw Li Erniu lying on the table.
At this time, there were several bruises on his lower back, and a bloody hole about one centimeter in diameter was bleeding. There were also several silver needles inserted around the wound.
Li Haizhu was standing nearby, occasionally reaching out to adjust the silver needle.
As the silver needle was constantly adjusted, the bleeding from Li Erniu's wound finally stopped.
Xu Jianguo walked over to Li Erniu, greeted Li Haizhu and Wang Yan, and then said to Li Erniu, "Uncle Erniu, how do you feel?"
"Hey, Jianguo, you're here! Don't worry, it's just a bump, it's not a big deal!" Li Erniu said.
"Uncle, what else do you feel now besides the pain in your waist?" Xu Jianguo asked. When he was standing in the crowd just now, he opened the Eye of Time and Space and found that Li Erniu's injury was far from as simple as it seemed.
The wild boar hit him right on the waist, and through the Eye of Time and Space, he saw that several nerves were damaged.
Although it will not lead to disability, if not treated properly, back pain and leg numbness may become the norm in the future.
Li Erniu thought for a moment and said, "I don't feel anything else, except that my legs are a little numb."
When Li Haizhu next to him heard this, his brows unconsciously frowned.
At this time, Li Mancang walked in hurriedly from outside. He went to the commune for a meeting, but was called back halfway through the meeting.
"Erniu, what's wrong? Is it serious?" Li Mancang asked. When he saw Li Haizhu's frown, his heart couldn't help but skip a beat.
But when he saw Xu Jianguo was also there, for some reason, the tension in his heart suddenly relaxed.
"Captain, it's okay, I was just bumped!" Li Erniu said nonchalantly. Wang Yan, who was standing next to him, was so angry when she saw him like this that she reached out and pinched his arm.
Li Mancang nodded and shouted to the others, "Alright, everyone, go back first. Keep an eye on the kids at home for the time being. Don't let them run around or go up the mountain! And when you go to the fields, find a companion. Don't go alone!"
After hearing what Li Mancang said, everyone responded and then dispersed.
Li Mancang then said to Wang Yan, "Yanzi, go back and get Erniu some clothes. His clothes are covered in dirt and blood, and his wound will easily get infected."
Yan Zi nodded and left the brigade headquarters and walked towards her home.
After everyone left, Li Mancang looked at Li Haizhu and said, "Zhuzi, there are no outsiders here now, just tell me the truth if you have anything to say!"
As soon as Li Mancang said this, Li Erniu, who was lying on the table, couldn't help but get nervous.
Li Haizhu said with a serious expression, "Captain, Erniu's injury might not be as simple as it seems! Jianguo just asked him if he felt anything, and he said his legs were numb. I think he might have damaged his nerves!"
"Zhu...Zhuzi, will I be paralyzed?" Li Erniu asked calmly.
Li Haizhu was about to speak when Xu Jianguo took over and said, "Uncle Erniu, your legs are just numb. This doesn't mean the problem is serious. You won't be paralyzed."
Li Erniu breathed a sigh of relief, nodded, and said nothing.
Li Mancang asked, "Zhu Zi, can you cure it?"
"Captain, I can't cure nerve damage." Li Haizhu said with a somewhat depressed look.
Li Mancang's eyes dimmed a little. Just as he was about to speak, Li Erniu spoke first, "Captain, Zhuzi, I'm not paralyzed. The worst that can happen is that my legs are a little numb. It's okay, don't worry!"
After hearing what Li Erniu said, the room fell silent for a moment. Li Mancang and Li Haizhu didn't know what to say, but Xu Jianguo was thinking about what kind of reason he could find to justify treating Li Erniu.
After a moment, Xu Jianguo said, "Uncle Mancang, I'd like to ask for leave from you to go to the government office. Last time I went to the Red Star Machinery Factory to do some work, I heard that the hospital there has medicine specifically for treating nerve damage. I'd like to ask about it. If it works, I'll buy the medicine back. Maybe Uncle Erniu's injury can be cured!"
"What? Jianguo, are you telling the truth?" Li Mancang asked with an excited expression on his face.
“Yes, it’s true!”
In fact, Xu Jianguo didn't need to go to the government office at all. He just needed to get some water from the space well and let Li Erniu drink it. However, there was no way to explain why he did so, and it would easily arouse suspicion from others, so he said that he was going to the government office to buy medicine.
