236 Back to the Jungle
◎Ye Zhizhi left alone.◎
After the herbs were scraped off one by one, the exposed wounds began to fester and emitted an unpleasant odor.
Ye Zhizhi observed carefully, she burned the dagger with fire again and scraped off the festering flesh. At first she thought that the wound was too serious and was caused by a hot weapon, and there might be some elements that could easily infect the wound.
However, she saw that among the rolling flesh and blood, there was a wound that seemed to be quite deep.
Ye Zhizhi suddenly thought, could it be that a bullet or something else had penetrated Da Mo's body? The more she thought about it, the more likely it was.
She originally thought that it was just a wound caused by the explosion, but was it possible that something was left in the flesh?
Ye Zhizhi hissed a few times at Da Mo to soothe him. She looked at her hands, found a bandage from her backpack, wrapped it around her fingers, and then inserted the bandage into the flesh while prying open the wound.
Da Mo was a stubborn snake. Even though Ye Zhizhi's hands were stirring in the wound, it didn't make a sound. Xiao Hua beside it seemed to feel the same way and kept hissing.
Ye Zhizhi put almost her entire hand into the flesh. After groping for a long time, she really touched a hard object. It was so deep that she almost didn't notice it.
No wonder the wound not only didn't heal but worsened. Ye Zhizhi took out the hard object, which was a piece half the size of a palm. No one knew how it got into the wound.
At this time, Da Mo's wound became bloody, and there was a bloodstain on the ground.
Ye Zhizhi applied anti-inflammatory medicine to Da Mo again and then applied the medicine.
The foreign object in the wound has been removed, and Da Mo should start to recover.
Ye Zhizhi stayed by Damo's side all the time. Xiaohua went out for a while and came back with a prey to feed Damo.
The fastest way for an injured animal to recover is to eat a lot of flesh and blood and lie down to rest more.
Animals understand that if they can eat, they can survive. If they can't eat, they're not far from death. Therefore, after Da Mo devoured the entire prey, both Ye Zhizhi and Xiaohua felt relieved.
Ye Zhizhi stayed with Da Mo for another five days, keeping a close eye on its wound. Although it still showed signs of suppuration later, the situation had improved a lot. Ye Zhizhi scraped it a few more times, and finally the suppuration stopped.
Da Mo can already move, and his tail seems a little slow and stagnant, but it is much better than before when he could hardly move.
They are preparing to move to another place to recuperate.
This is not Da Mo's territory nest, and there are many dangers around.
Even with Ye Zhizhi's prompt attention, the blood from Da Mo's wound still released some of its energy. It was only because Wolf Dad and Wolf Mom were roaming the surface, and Xiao Hua was patrolling underground, driving away the remaining predators, that Da Mo could have such a peaceful environment to recuperate.
So when the big ink can move, they crawl to the ground and pass directly through the ground.
The wolf father and mother had never seen Da Mo, but they were accustomed to their cubs making friends of different races. Although they did not get too close, they still acted as escort messengers.
The crisis was resolved and the jungle returned to its previous state. Wolf father and wolf mother stayed for two days and then left again.
Ye Zhizhi was very worried. She was afraid that the wolf father and mother would run into humans. However, given their intelligence and having witnessed the power of human weapons, they would probably be more cautious.
Ye Zhizhi and Xiaohua did not leave. Da Mo was injured and they were worried. Ye Zhizhi didn't know if any humans would come in again. She originally thought that it would be difficult for humans to reach such a deep area in the jungle, but she didn't expect so many humans to come in this year.
She had a deeper sense of crisis. Humans could penetrate deep into this place just by relying on some new weapons. If this trend continues, perhaps in a few years, they would be able to penetrate into the central area. This would definitely be a disaster for the jungle.
Ye Zhizhi's mind was in a whirlwind. While she was looking for new herbs for Da Mo, she was also observing the surrounding environment.
Because of Da Mo's incident, Ye Zhizhi not only gave up on going with Wolf Dad and Wolf Mom, but also stopped thinking about returning to the wolf den. She wondered if she should secretly explore the area, at least to familiarize herself with it.
Ye Zhizhi went deep into the jungle to retrieve many medicinal herbs. She even dug up some of them with their roots, intending to try planting them in underground caves or at the edge of water to see if they could survive.
Ye Zhizhi wishes to plant these plants that can be of great use all over the mountains and plains, so that no matter when he gets injured, he will have something to heal him in time.
However, the more obvious the effect of a plant, the more picky it is about its living environment. Even if Ye Zhizhi tried his best to find a place with a similar living environment and dug out a lot of soil from under the roots, it was still difficult to keep it alive. Ye Zhizhi could only try more.
With more effective medicinal plants, Da Mo's wounds healed faster. And with Ye Zhizhi and Xiaohua around, it was able to rest and recuperate in peace, while Ye Zhizhi and Xiaohua helped Da Mo patrol the territory.
When Ye Zhizhi was patrolling in Da Mo's territory, she could not smell the scent of wolf father and wolf mother, as they had already gone far away.
She stood on the huge loess stone, feeling the rustling wind, and the reluctance to leave surged again. Ye Zhizhi couldn't help but reflect on herself, wondering if she was really too clingy to the wolf, like a wolf cub who couldn't leave its mother even for a moment.
Her mentality needs to change, she has to grow up...
Ye Zhizhi thought that wolf cubs would leave the nest when they grew up, and birds would build their own nests when they became adults, and she gradually felt better.
She cheered herself up and continued to patrol the territory, occasionally walking around in areas outside the territory.
There seemed to be more predators here, and the competition was more intense. She had seen many different groups of predators fighting for territory. The battles were fierce at one point, and she could always smell a strong smell of blood.
The rustling wind swept the blood and energy far away, and more predators came following the scent.
Ye Zhizhi guessed that this might be the reason, so it became even more lively.
Ye Zhizhi stayed in Da Mo's territory for nearly two months. New flesh and blood and new snake scales grew on Da Mo's wounds. The color of the scales was slightly different from the surrounding color, but they were very hard.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but the newly grown snake scales seem to be more solid.
When Da Mo had almost recovered, Ye Zhizhi said goodbye to the two snakes and prepared to leave. She didn't let Xiao Hua follow her anymore. Xiao Hua thought it would be the same as this time, and she would wait until next year to come and play with it again. She was very happy and didn't bother Ye Zhizhi.
Ye Zhizhi entered the jungle in May, and now it should be around August, so she should have left.
He was also prepared to do what he wanted to do, continue to explore District 12, and then go directly back to human society.
She was always thinking about the jungle. Although there were still many companions she wanted to meet, Ye Zhizhi was already very satisfied. She just wanted to come back and take a look, and she didn't plan to stay there.
After the accident with Da Mo, Ye Zhizhi's belief became even stronger, and she wanted to return to human society.
She not only has to learn medical knowledge, but also has to work hard to fight for her rights.
Ye Zhizhi left alone.
