At this moment, Lu Zhiye was extremely grateful that he had just walked a distance over here.
The whistling cold wind made his mind clearer, and he quickly took out a wooden board from the space and threw it forward.
With a dive, he knelt on the wooden board. The huge impact force caused the board to slide forward at an uncontrollable speed.
At the moment when Zhong Muqing was about to fall to the ground, Lu Zhiye stretched out his hand.
Zhong Muqing's small body fell heavily on Lu Zhiye's arm, and the severe pain made Lu Zhiye's brain go blank in an instant.
He roared angrily, and struggled to support his arm which was almost broken, and fell to the ground holding Zhong Muqing.
The child in his arms had fainted. Lu Zhiye took out a cup of spiritual spring water from the space and fed him a little, then turned around and drank two large cups.
He raised his head and looked upwards, and a piece of clothing quickly disappeared. A cold light flashed in Lu Zhiye's eyes, and his whole body exuded a cold aura.
The villagers finally arrived. Captain Lu looked at Lu Zhiye with trembling hands, "Is everything okay? Is the child okay?"
Looking at Zhong Muqing who had already fainted, the captain didn't even wait for Lu Zhiye to answer, but stretched out his hand and touched Zhong Muqing's nose with trembling hands.
When he realized he was still breathing, he suddenly collapsed to the ground and patted his chest vigorously: "Still alive, still alive."
Zhong Wende and his men were the farthest away, and they tried their best to rush over. However, when they got close to the two men, they became timid.
Lu Zhiye raised his head and looked at Zhong Wende, who had fear in his eyes. A smile appeared on his face, which had turned pale due to the pain. "It's okay, he just fainted."
Zhong Wende let out a howl and could no longer control himself, and started crying.
The villagers sighed and discussed in low voices.
"How could it fall?"
"I just thought I saw someone up there."
"I saw it too, but it looked like weeds and I couldn't see it clearly."
Captain Lu saw that the discussion was getting more and more heated, so he clapped his hands twice and said, "Go to work!"
The crowd dispersed in a swarm.
Duan Qing was also supported by Wen Sihe and walked over with weak hands and feet.
She took Zhong Muqing from Lu Zhiye's arms tremblingly, her red eyes filled with tears.
Only when she saw that her son was not seriously injured did she burst into tears.
Wen Sihe lowered her eyes to look at Lu Zhiye's arms. His arms hung limply at both sides, and his exposed forearms were slightly red and swollen.
She walked silently to Lu Zhiye and asked in a low voice: "Are you okay?"
"You won't die!" Lu Zhiye looked a little indifferent.
He gently moved his arm. The previous severe pain, under the effect of the spiritual spring water, had turned into a tingling pain, as if being crawled by millions of ants.
Wen Sihe bit her red lips lightly with her pearly teeth, and the worry in her eyes could not be hidden.
But when she saw Lu Zhiye's cold attitude, her breathing stagnated and she felt angry and annoyed!
Zhong Wende also recovered from his grief at this time, and quickly looked at Lu Zhiye: "Comrade Lu, are you okay?"
There was tension and worry in his tone, which made the captain worried as well.
Captain Lu looked Lu Zhiye up and down, stretched out his hand and pinched his arm: "It's not broken, it's not broken!"
After that, he patted Lu Zhiye on the back again: "Good boy, you are in good health!"
Lu Zhiye couldn't help but roll his eyes at him: This body is given to you, go and take it.
Realizing what he meant, Captain Lu withdrew his hand awkwardly.
Are you kidding me? He'll answer it. His old bones will be smashed to pieces.
"We are not far from Dam Village. They have barefoot doctors there. I will give you half a day off. Go there and check if you have any other injuries."
Captain Lu took two puffs from his empty pipe and spoke very generously.
Lu Zhiye was more than happy to do so. He also wanted to discuss the man on the dam with Professor Zhong.
Zhong Wende picked up his son and thanked the captain.
The captain waved his hand nonchalantly and said with a cold face: "Only one of you can go. You take your son with you, and your wife has to continue working."
"It's natural, it's natural."
Duan Qing quickly responded that it was already very tolerant to let them see a doctor.
With worry and gratitude in her eyes, she looked at her husband and Lu Zhiye: "Go quickly and let the doctor take a good look at him, especially Comrade Lu, to make sure there are no sequelae."
Lu Zhiye nodded slowly, indicating that he understood.
After climbing up the stairs to the dam, Lu Zhiye turned his head to look at the place where Zhong Muqing fell. There were traces of being stepped on in the weeds, so it seemed that his guess was correct.
He and Zhong Wende walked side by side, and Zhong Wende's voice was anxious: "Xiao Ye, I see your arm is swollen, are you okay?"
Lu Zhiye smiled faintly and shook his head: "It's okay, it just looks scary."
Zhong Wende was still worried and decided to ask the doctor to take a good look at him later.
Lu Zhiye said in a low voice: "Teacher, have you offended anyone recently?"
Zhong Wende was a little surprised why he asked this. After thinking for a moment, he thought of someone and nodded slightly.
"One of the people who was sent down with us was the deputy director of a steel plant. He once made the decision to provide a batch of substandard steel to the construction site.
It happened that the design of that construction site was given to my teacher. I noticed that the hardness and length of the steel did not match, so I told my teacher about it.
He was demoted to director because of this, and I didn't expect that he would be demoted this time too.
He always liked to make some sarcastic remarks about us along the way."
Zhong Wende was talking about the square-faced man. There were no new grudges. They were just old grudges.
There was a flash of deep thought in Lu Zhiye's eyes. He thought that when Zhong Muqing woke up, he would ask him what happened and then make a decision.
I didn’t talk about this matter any more with Zhong Wende.
He just reminded her gently, "Be careful of this person in the future."
The two finally arrived at Dam Village. The only people left in the village were the elderly and children, and the young and strong laborers had all gone to repair the river.
Seeing strangers approaching, the children looked at them curiously.
In his previous life, Lu Zhiye ran the black market and knew several nearby villages very well. He ignored the looks from others and walked straight to the brigade headquarters with Zhong Wende.
