BXBX NOVEL Chapter 104 - 104: Saving Someone
To put it nicely, it was called implication, but to be blunt, wasn\'t this similar to what Ye Ling had told him? Both were essentially threats, weren\'t they?
The village chief was momentarily at a loss for words.
Had he, the village chief, failed so miserably that he was being threatened one after the other by these two youngsters? Moreover, how did they manage to be so synchronized? Wasn\'t one person\'s threat enough? Did they need double insurance?
Seeing the village chief remaining silent, Min Nan thought the village chief might not fully grasp the importance of the matter and slightly raised his voice, saying, "Uncle Dong..."
The village chief, Li Dong, was extremely frustrated and impatiently replied, "I get it, I get it! I don\'t want to be dismissed yet, you don\'t need to remind me anymore!"
Min Nan finally put his mind at ease and left satisfied.
Min Nan returned to Ye Ling\'s side and saw her massaging the outer side of her thigh. It was evident that Ye Ling must be very tired. Her arm movements were feeble, indicating her fatigue.
Min Nan asked with concern, "Is your leg hurting?"
Ye Ling nodded, "A little."
Min Nan looked at Ye Ling\'s leg and, after a moment, gently touched a certain spot, saying, "Massage here, it should feel better."
Ye Ling was momentarily surprised but followed Min Nan\'s advice and indeed felt somewhat relieved after massaging the spot.
As the two rested and waited for the results of the rescue effort on the other side, after more than an hour, cries of alarm came from the direction of the mine.
"Hurry up, hurry up, get the person out!"
"Is this person alive or dead?"
"It seems like there\'s still some breath left! Did someone from the clinic arrive?"
"It\'s late at night, and the clinic staff have all gone home. The village chief has sent someone to notify them, but they haven\'t arrived yet."
"What should we do? I don\'t think this person\'s condition looks good. We shouldn\'t wait until they die. If they die, it won\'t be our responsibility. After all, we\'ve already rescued the person."
...
"After hearing the noisy discussions, Ye Ling immediately pressed her palm against the ground and managed to stand up with Min Nan\'s assistance. Due to the intense soreness in her legs, as she stood up, her feet felt like they were stepping on cotton, and her body almost tilted over, nearly causing her to fall.
Min Nan promptly caught her arm and said, "Be careful."
assist her, but before they could reach her, Min Nan had already supported Ye Ling\'s 14:42
arm. He spoke calmly, "Take it easy, I\'ve got you."
"Thank you, Big Brother Min Nan. I\'ll go over there to see what\'s happening," Ye Ling expressed her gratitude and didn\'t waste any more time. She went with Min Nan to the side of the mine.
One of the rescued workers was placed on the ground nearby. Since no one present had medical expertise, no one dared to approach and check the worker\'s injuries.
Ye Ling approached the worker, intending to lift their arm to examine their condition, when a man in his thirties shouted at her, "Where did this young girl come from? This person is severely injured, and might die soon. What are you doing here? Is this a time for you to join the commotion? Hurry up and chase her away!"
Ye Ling was surprised that her attempt to help had led to being scolded. She was somewhat speechless and was about to say something when Village Chief Li Dong walked over and glared at the villager. He said, "This is an educated youth from Stone Village, and she knows medicine. She came here late at night to help rescue people!"
Ye Ling didn\'t expect the village chief to speak up for her after she had threatened him. She felt somewhat embarrassed for a moment.
Upon hearing the village chief\'s words, the man who had scolded Ye Ling was taken aback and then bowed his head in shame. He stammered an apology to Ye Ling, saying, "I\'m sorry, I didn\'t know you were a doctor..."
Ye Ling had initially wanted to explain that she wasn\'t a doctor yet, but upon seeing the seriousness of the patient\'s injuries on the ground, she decided not to waste any more words.
She took out a pouch containing silver needles from her pocket and carefully examined the patient\'s injuries. Afterward, she used the silver needles to stimulate key acupuncture points cautiously.
During Ye Ling\'s efforts to save the person, Min Nan stood by, holding a torch to provide light. The village chief also called over two people to stand guard nearby in case of any unexpected situations.
After about fifteen minutes, Ye Ling removed the silver needles and sighed with relief, saying, "Alright, we can carry him down the mountain in two hours. Are there any other injured workers?"
Someone immediately replied, "Yes, there are. They\'re all over there, and some of them are quite seriously injured."
Ye Ling struggled to stand up, swaying slightly. The person who had spoken tried to assist her, but before they could reach her, Min Nan had already supported Ye Ling\'s arm. He spoke calmly, "Take it easy, I\'ve got you."
