In the days that followed, Chen Yaojun frequently appeared in the courtyard, sometimes once a day, sometimes once every three or four days, while Yao Tongjia and the other two continued their daily routine of teaching and translating as usual.
That night, they all went to sleep, but Yao Tongjia couldn't sleep because Xiao Gengwu had given her a crash course in math and her mind was full of math problems.
Just as she was drifting off to sleep, she suddenly heard the door open. Yao Tongjia knew that Chen Yaojun had returned, as his return time was very unpredictable.
Just as she was about to drift off to sleep again, she suddenly heard a thud, followed by a muffled cry of pain, and then nothing more.
Thinking of Chen Yaojun's profession, Yao Tongjia quickly sat up. She felt that Chen Yaojun must be injured, otherwise he wouldn't have fallen and been unable to get up for so long.
Before Yao Tongjia could get up, Xiao Gengwu also got up. He took Yao Tongjia's hand, opened the door to the room together, and went out.
Although it was dark, they still saw Chen Yaojun lying on the ground, motionless. Yao Tongjia's heart pounded, and she quickly took two steps and touched his neck.
Thankfully, her heart was still beating. Turning her head, she saw the blood spreading on the ground. The speed at which she was bleeding meant the situation was very bad!
Yao Tongjia ran back and got a kerosene lamp. They usually had light bulbs in the house, but not in the courtyard. Fortunately, they had bought kerosene during the power outage and hadn't run out of it yet.
When the kerosene lamp shone on them, both of them saw blood flowing down their chests. Xiao Gengwu pulled up Chen Yaojun's clothes and saw the black hole in his chest.
The black hole left both of them speechless. Xiao Gengwu said, "I'll take him to the hospital. Whether he can be saved or not is up to his fate!"
Yao Tongjia thought for a moment and said, "I have some medicine to stop the bleeding. Let's stop the bleeding for him first!"
Yao Tongjia took out a bottle of her homemade hemostatic agent and sprinkled it on the black hole. At first, some blood came out of the black hole, but the bleeding stopped quickly.
The black hole remained a black hole and did not shrink, which relieved Yao Tongjia somewhat. The bleeding stopped, and Xiao Gengwu went to help Chen Yaojun up, but unexpectedly, Chen Yaojun woke up.
"Help me back to my room!"
"You're bleeding a lot, you should go to the hospital to get it checked out."
"I can't go to the hospital now, it will only cause trouble for this yard! Please help me back to my room!"
These words forced Xiao Gengwu to take Chen Yaojun back to his room. People are prone to selfishness, and he couldn't let any trouble enter the courtyard.
Xiao Gengwu helped Chen Yaojun back to his room. Chen Yaojun insisted on changing his clothes, saying, "Please take these clothes to the stove and burn them. Also, please make sure to clean up the bloodstains on the outside. Thank you!"
Seeing his serious expression, Xiao Gengwu and Yao Tongjia dared not neglect their duties and quickly divided the work, with Xiao Gengwu helping Chen Yaojun change his clothes.
Yao Tongjia went to clean up the bloodstains. The place where Chen Yaojun had just fallen was half in the cement floor of the well and half in the soil, and there were bloodstains on both sides.
Bloodstains on cement are easy to clean; just rinse them with water several times. But for bloodstains on the soil, Yao Tongjia had to use a shovel to turn the blood-stained soil underneath.
However, the yard still smelled of blood. Just to be on the safe side, Yao Tongjia took out mugwort, which can remove odors and is also good for health.
After cleaning up the bloodstains, Yao Tongjia walked to Chen Yaojun's room and gently called out, "Brother Xiao, are you done?"
Xiao Gengwu took out the bloodstained clothes: "We still need to boil some hot water to wipe his body; his skin is covered in blood."
Yao Tongjia nodded. Brother Xiao was indeed very thoughtful. The two of them were busy for a while, and when they returned to the room, they saw that Chen Yaojun had fallen into a coma.
The two came out, and Yao Tongjia poured a large cup of hot water and added some spiritual spring water: "At least let his wound heal faster. I saw how nervous he was, he probably offended someone powerful."
"I'm afraid someone will come to check and he'll be exposed, then we'll all be in trouble!"
Seeing that Yao Tongjia knew her limits and didn't fill the whole glass with water like last time, Xiao Gengwu nodded and said, "Feed him now!"
The two returned to Chen Yaojun's room. Xiao Gengwu held Chen Yaojun's head, but Chen Yaojun was completely unconscious. Yao Tongjia quickly pressed acupoints and fed him water.
After drinking the water, there seemed to be no change on her face, but her breathing gradually became steady, and Yao Tongjia felt that her pulse had calmed down.
They both breathed a sigh of relief. It was already quite late, probably around midnight. They yawned and went to sleep.
Before everyone was fully awake the next day, a commotion arose outside the door, accompanied by loud banging on the door, which woke everyone in the yard.
Grandma Huang ran out to open the door, looking a little angry. Yao Tongjia was startled and realized it must have happened last night, so she quickly followed her in.
As soon as the door opened, the man's foot was about to kick out, but Yao Tongjia was quick enough to pull Grandma Huang back. Otherwise, Grandma Huang, being an elderly person, would definitely have been seriously injured by the kick.
Just then, Chen Yaojun dragged his weak body out and saw that his grandmother had almost been kicked. His eyes widened in horror, and he wanted to run a few steps, but he was dizzy and staggered, almost falling down.
It was Xiao Gengwu who went over to help him up and whispered a few words in his ear before Chen Junyao's expression calmed down: "Who are you, and what do you want?"
“Someone stole something from our Kagome Association last night. We followed the trail of blood to your place. The thief must be in your house. Search it!”
“We were sleeping last night and didn’t hear anything. Do you know my grandmother is a martyr’s family member? I’m also a military officer. You’re just searching us like this? Do you have a search warrant?”
The appearance of the martyr's family member caused the newcomer to hesitate for a moment, but only for a moment. He then waved his hand and said, "Search!"
Chen Yaojun blocked the way of the newcomers: "Tell me now what you want to search. If you find nothing, what will you say?"
"And what if you people go in and knock over all our things? What will we say then?"
These words infuriated the newcomer: "Kagome knows how to handle things, what do I need to say? Search me! Get out of my way!"
Everyone rushed inside, and Yao Tongxu came out somewhat frightened. Yao Tongjia held his hand and said, "Don't be afraid!"
These words drew the attention of the three children. He circled around them and pointed at them to the people around him: "Take these three away from me. I suspect they are enemy agents!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed drastically: "Where do you get the evidence that they are enemy agents? I think you're just lusting after them!"
The person froze for a moment upon hearing this: "I say they are, and that's it!"
