The Bai family has been practicing medicine for generations, not the current Western medicine, but traditional Chinese medicine. It has been passed down from the end of the Ming Dynasty to the present day. On the surface, the Bai family looks like an ordinary family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners in the Southern Administrative Region, but they live in Cuiming Mountain, where the powerful and wealthy gather, and live next to the family of the district chief of the Southern Administrative Region. Even the people in Cuiming Mountain mostly only know that the Bai family are life-saving doctors, but they don’t know that they are not only good at saving people, but also other living beings. During the most chaotic period before the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Bai family moved their entire family deep into the Changchu Mountains, where they lived next to the mountain creatures and secluded themselves from the world.
But now he was called a veterinarian. How could Bai Ningxi not be angry? No matter how modest he was, he was still young and energetic. If Uncle Chen had not asked him to come along, he would have just walked away.
At this time, another person came over and stretched out a fair and slender hand in front of him. "I'm sorry, he didn't know the situation and said the wrong thing. Please don't be offended. Hello, I'm Jing Ling."
Bai Ningxi looked at him for a moment before reaching out his hand, "I know you." He recognized Jing Ling at a glance. After all, people with such good looks are so rare that it is hard to forget them once you have seen them.
"Hello, Bai Ningxi."
"I'm sorry to bother you so late and make you come all the way here." Jing Ling let go of his hand and looked towards the stream. "I don't know if anyone told you about the situation before you came. We just found a wild South China tiger here. It was seriously injured. Professionals have already seen it and said they can't do anything. Now my hope rests on you."
Bai Ningxi was slightly surprised when she heard this. "Hasn't the wild South China tiger long been extinct? And how come it appeared in this area outside the forest?"
"Let's talk about this later. The situation is quite urgent now. Please come over and take a look at it first." Jing Ling said, turning around and walking towards the stream.
Bai Ningxi followed behind him.
The stream was crowded with people, including medical personnel from the army and authorities on animal medical rescue in Qincheng. Everyone was gloomy as they watched the tiger's life slip away bit by bit without being able to do anything.
"Please make way, thank you." Jing Ling walked in front and stretched out his hand to separate the crowd in front of him, making a path effortlessly. Bai Ningxi followed behind, narrowing his eyes slightly. This path seemed easy to open, and the crowd separated consciously wherever Jing Ling's hands went. But it was not really like that, because as these people moved away, they were complaining, and they did not look like they were willing at all. In other words, they were forced to move aside. The movements of the boy's hands gave people a light-hearted feeling, but in fact, they implied great strength, which could easily push away the adults in front of him.
He looks a little thin and fair, but he is actually very talented. And he also knows about the Bai family. This person must have a background, but Bai Ningxi couldn't figure it out for the moment. There is no wealthy family with the surname Jing listed above, and the children of the other families will not have the surname Jing. Could they be favored illegitimate children?
However, it was a short distance that was quickly covered. After the innermost layer of the crowd was separated, the tiger could be seen lying on the stone slab. Even its breathing had become weak, and if you didn't look carefully you couldn't see the rise and fall of its body. The situation was really very bad.
Bai Ningxi temporarily put aside the distracting thoughts in his mind, walked to the tiger and squatted down, stretched out his hand to check the situation, and sighed, "This level of injury is fatal. It would be fine if he was sent to the hospital when he was injured. Now that it has been delayed for so long, it is too difficult to save him."
Then the young man's voice sounded behind him, "Then treat it. Just tell me if you need anything."
Bai Ningxi was a little surprised when she heard that. She stood up and looked back at Jing Ling, "How do you know I can cure it?"
Jing Ling smiled and said, "You just said it's too difficult, not that it can't be cured."
Bai Ningxi also started laughing.
Two young boys of similar age, one with delicate and almost perfect looks, the other with a gentle and extraordinary temperament, standing together is undoubtedly a very pleasing picture. But people around me may not appreciate it.
"Did I hear you correctly? You said you could save him? Do you really know what the situation is like now?"
"Where did this little brat come from to give orders? Have you graduated? Have you got your professional license?"
"What's wrong with young people nowadays? They are so ambitious and want to achieve success overnight! They really think they are some kind of prodigy!"
Bai Ningxi had seen too many such doubts. At first, she would feel indignant, but later she gradually got used to it and was too lazy to even defend herself. But the next moment, Jing Ling asked, "Do we need to clear the area?"
Bai Ningxi smiled and nodded, "Thank you."
"You're welcome. It's my duty." Jing Ling said, then turned around and shouted outside, "Jiang Siyang, please help and ask these people to move aside."
Jiang Siyang, who was outside the crowd, suddenly frowned, thinking that this little bastard was getting more and more presumptuous and now he didn't even call the instructor! But after thinking about it, they still called people over to help and asked the professionals who were surrounding the two people and refusing to leave and kept blaming them to leave.
Bai Ningxi arrived at the scene around 11 o'clock in the evening, with a bright moon hanging high in the blue sky. The troops brought generators and stretched a circle of wires around both sides of the river. A hundred-watt light bulb was lit at intervals, making the entire river channel as bright as day.
By the time he had treated the tiger's injuries and pulled it back from the brink of death, it was already past five and almost six in the morning. I had to maintain a high level of concentration for a whole night, and I had to treat the wound myself, which was a physically demanding job. After sewing the last stitch, Bai Ningxi finally breathed a sigh of relief, raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and stood aside to straighten his body.
Without any warning, everything went dark before his eyes and his head felt dizzy. The place where he was standing was not very flat and he lost his balance and fell backwards.
Jing Ling also stayed on guard for the entire night, not far from Bai Ningxi, so that he could call for help when he needed to get something. Seeing this, he reacted quickly and took a few steps forward to lend a hand. Although I knew that this situation was probably caused by overwork, I still called medical personnel to take a look.
The tiger's life was saved and the matter came to a temporary end. The professionals who were invited had originally been full of sarcasm and ridicule towards Bai Ningxi, but they were slapped in the face in just one night. They all became as quiet as chickens until they started arguing again when they talked about the whereabouts of the tigers.
Everyone agreed to send the tiger to an animal sanatorium for recuperation, but no consensus was reached as to which sanatorium to send it to. This one is closer, that one has a better environment, and the other one is more authoritative. They were arguing so fiercely that they almost came to blows.
Jing Ling clapped his hands and decided the last question. "Don't go anywhere. Just carve out a space in the Changchu Mountains and leave a few people to look after it. Don't tell me it needs to go to a sanatorium because it's injured. The king of beasts who grew up in nature is not so delicate. Let it return to the forest when it's healed."
In addition to the reasons stated, there was another purpose for making this decision, which was for the snake. With the development of society today, it is impossible for tigers to live in the outer areas of the forest. This tiger should have originally lived in the depths of the Changchuling Mountains, but was injured and brought out from the depths of the forest by a snake. God knows how these two species became friends, but the snake was willing to break into human territory for the tiger. Although it swam away after he persuaded it, Jing Ling could feel that it was still nearby. If the tiger was taken away, the snake would definitely follow it from afar. Once a snake of this size appeared in front of people, the timid ones might be scared to death.
For your own good, my good and everyone's good, we have no choice but to leave the tiger behind.
How could a professional agree with this? They all criticized Jing Ling one after another. However, it was of no use. Jiang Siyang stood on his side, Bai Ningxi also stood on his side, and most importantly, the lieutenant colonel who had been a bystander all night also stood on his side. You have to know that this is the army's territory. Even if you want to take away a blade of grass, you have to get the army's consent.
Even if professionals are extremely unwilling, they have no choice but to face reality.
Soon, the news that wild South China tigers were discovered in the Changchu Mountains spread throughout the country. Because of what happened a few years ago, people suspected whether it was fake the moment they saw the news, but this time is different from the last time, there are not only photos, but also videos as evidence. For a while, the Qincheng garrison troops were in the limelight, and the students of Yitong University who were undergoing military training here also became popular, because after their training, they had half an hour to go see the tigers, but they were divided into classes and batches. Since reporters could not enter the troops, they could only use the pictures and videos posted by these students to fill the news reports.
One month of military training passed quickly. Compared to when they first arrived, everyone has been tanned into charcoal, and many have had their skin peeled off. However, there are exceptions. For example, Jing Ling did not change at all before and after the military training.
On the day when the military training ended, Jing Ling took a selfie with her roommate's phone and uploaded it to Weibo, with four words attached: Natural beauty.
