Three people jogged towards the source of the cries for help, noticing that the pleas had become more pronounced – surely the person was gravely injured and there was no time to waste.
Dr. Yu ran while also protecting Lu Jing, her back burdened with one, and her arms cradling another.
"Doctor Lu, take it easy."
"It's okay, I can see."
Though the woods were pitch dark, the flashlight provided enough light to see the surroundings clearly.
After running for about fifteen seconds, they finally reached the hollow at the bottom of the hill.
Shining the flashlight, they saw the village chief lying there covered in blood, howling in pain.
Perhaps due to the severity of his injuries and crying out for too long, he was now barely able to draw breath.
Seeing this, Dr. Yu immediately said,
"I'll go down, Doctor Lu, you wait up here."
There was no way to risk someone pregnant jumping down – the hollow was at least two meters deep.
