Li Xiyue hurriedly asked, "Are they dead?"
Honey's laughter echoed through the space.
Honey laughed so hard she let out a goose-like quack, "Hee hee hee! Those two died so tragically. Old Mu's marksmanship is amazing, hitting him in the back every day. Zhao Jingsong's heart was blown apart; the bullet went in his back but left a huge gash in his chest, hahaha!"
In that state, you don't even need to know medicine; anyone who saw it would know there was no hope. How could someone survive with their heart ruptured?
Li Xiyue asked, "What about Song Haoqiang? Was Song Haoqiang's heart blown out?"
Mi Bao said, "Song Haoqiang's heart didn't burst, but he was covered in blood in both his front and back."
Those people in camouflage even checked his wounds. I used the medical system in my space to examine him, and the bullet was in his heart.
With the current medical conditions here, it's simply impossible to perform open-chest surgery on him. He's definitely going to die!
Li Xiyue's heart slowly calmed down. Thank goodness, both of them were dead!
She said, "How did they handle them?"
Mi Bao said, "What else can we do? Just leave them on the hillside. I saw that a dozen or so men in camouflage had already left, so we just left them there and went!"
However, these dozen or so people didn't seem to be from this country; their height and build were different, and they looked like Westerners.
Li Xiyue said, "I also think they look like Western white people, even if they have orange-brown skin and their faces are covered in face paint. Their body shape can't be changed."
"Go and follow them, see where they went, who they met up with, how they suddenly appeared here, is it just a coincidence that Song Haoqiang and Zhao Jingsong are here?"
Mibao said, "Okay, I'll go after them right now!"
After Li Xiyue finished talking to Mi Bao, her brows remained furrowed. How could it be such a coincidence that Mu Cangnan wanted to kill Song Haoqiang and Zhao Jingsong, but at this very moment, more than a dozen people suddenly appeared?
Moreover, these dozen or so people are not from that country at all.
She sensed something sinister!
Mu Cangnan called to Li Xiyue, "Let's go, get in the car!"
Li Xiyue got into the car with Mu Cangnan, and they went back to Zhao Hu's house together.
When Zhao Hu returned to their base, Zhang Dongsheng urged him to kill a chicken.
He had no choice but to take out five of his own chickens, slaughter them, and stew them for everyone to eat.
Li Xiyue could tell that Zhao Hu seemed to feel sorry for these chickens; her keen hearing caught Zhao Hu's mutterings.
As Zhao Hu sat in the yard killing chickens, he muttered to himself, "Wife, 10 chickens should be enough for you to eat during your postpartum period! I originally planned to eat one chicken every two days. Now you can eat one chicken every three days, which will last you a month."
Zhao Hu spoke very softly, like a mosquito buzzing, so soft that no one around him could hear him except for Li Xiyue, whose hearing was exceptional.
Li Xiyue looked at Zhao Hu with sudden realization. It turned out that Zhao Hu was raising these chickens to prepare for his wife's postpartum period.
No wonder Zhao Hu was so reluctant to kill him!
She shook her head. Zhang Dongsheng only knew that Zhao Hu was stingy and wouldn't give them chicken, but he didn't know that Zhao Hu's wife was about to give birth!
Fortunately, she had plenty of chickens, ducks, and eggs in her spatial storage. Tomorrow, she would pretend to go to the market and take some chickens, ducks, and eggs out of her space for Zhao Hu.
She went into the room Zhao Hu had arranged for them to rest and visit her parents.
Cheng Xiaohui was relieved to see her daughter return. She had been worried sick when her daughter left.
She held her daughter's hand and said, "We must not do such dangerous things again. Mom is scared."
"Mom has no extravagant desires in this life, nor does she expect you to be rich, powerful, or hold a high position. Mom just wants you to live a peaceful and safe life and marry a good man!"
Li Xiyue said, "Mom, I know. I will protect myself. We got the prescription. Look, he engraved the prescription on the watch case!"
"If I'd known, I would have just snatched his watch. Why did I have to come all this way with him?"
Cheng Xiaohui took the watch and looked at it carefully. Sure enough, there was a string of chemical symbols that he couldn't understand at all engraved on the back of the form.
She asked, "Will having this allow us to concoct the antidote?"
Li Xiyue said, "Yes, we can. With these, we can make the antidote! But we don't have these things written on the antidote here right now, so we have to wait until we get back to make it."
But don't worry, we still have medicine to delay the poison's effects; enough to last us for a few days!
Cheng Xiaohui said, "I know. Actually, as long as I can see you doing well, I'd be happy to close my eyes right now. My only regret is not seeing you get married and have children, and not being able to help you raise your children!"
Li Xiyue said, "Mom, how can you say that? You must live to be a hundred and stay with me forever!"
I didn't grow up by your side, but I want to stay by your side for the rest of my life!
Tears welled up in Cheng Xiaohui's eyes. How could she bear to leave her daughter? But these past few days had made her feel like she was very close to death. She didn't know if something unexpected would happen one day and she would never see her daughter again!
Mu Cangnan brought Cheng Xiaohui and Li Wenbo a thermos of hot water and made them tea.
He said to Cheng Xiaohui and Li Wenbo, "Uncle and Aunt, the conditions here are limited. Please rest well, and we'll be able to eat soon!"
Cheng Xiaohui smiled and nodded, saying, "Comrade Mu, thank you so much this time! I heard you still have a mission to carry out, is that right?"
Mu Cangnan said, "Yes, I still have a mission to carry out. Tomorrow, I'll have Zhang Dongsheng and the others send you back to the capital. I'll continue my mission."
Cheng Xiaohui said with difficulty, "Okay! Thank you so much this time. I don't know how to thank you. How should my family thank you?"
Mu Cangnan said, "Auntie, you're too kind! This is all I should do!"
He scratched the back of his head awkwardly; Cheng Xiaohui's politeness made him feel strange.
The atmosphere in the room was clearly a bit off, so he tactfully came out.
His brow furrowed. Did his future mother-in-law have some issues with him again?
Seeing Mu Cangnan walk out, Li Xiyue said to her mother, "Mom, aren't you being a little too deliberate?"
Cheng Xiaohui said, "Yue'er, it's not that Mommy did it on purpose, but I have no choice but to draw a line between us!"
Look at the mess this has made! Isn't it all related to him? You're my only daughter, and I don't want you to marry someone who's always in danger or who could bring you danger at any time.
This isn't a discussion between Mom and you; it's settled. You can be with anyone, just not Mu Cangnan!
The moment Mibao flew back, it heard what Cheng Xiaohui said, and it seemed to flap its little wings!
What's going on here? The old man saved his mother-in-law's parents, but he's being scorned as a result?!
