For the next few hours, everyone walked in silence, with heavy steps and sad hearts.
But sad things are still happening, and death comes inadvertently, adding a touch of sadness to everyone's heart.
The village chief has left! His face was peaceful, as if he was sleeping deeply.
Suno would check on the wounded every once in a while.
The last time he checked on the village chief was two hours ago, he was still in a comatose state, but when he was checked this time, he had no vital signs at all.
The village chief did not wake up when he finally passed away, and he did not leave any words like Jiang Pingwan.
As a doctor, Su Nuo was unable to do anything. He could only find another flat and sunny place for him with the villagers and bury the village chief.
When the village chief was being buried, the men responsible for carrying the stretcher gathered around him, looking at a loss.
Fortunately, the village chief's youngest son didn't know the bad news. He was sleeping with Li Siwang at the time.
Both children lost their close relatives, but they were both lucky enough not to be left in that numb village.
Perhaps what awaits them is a beautiful and enthusiastic future, and they no longer have to go back to that secluded and impersonal village.
The sky was getting dark again, and it seemed like snow was coming again.
My mood, which had been bright because of the sunny weather, once again became as heavy as a dark cloud.
Sunuo could only try her best to take care of the remaining wounded. She didn't want everyone to stay in this mountain in the end.
But Suno knew that he was almost reaching his limit. In fact, she had already exhausted her energy and was about to lose consciousness.
"Xiao Nuo, let's take a rest." Gu Chenglan looked at his watch. In fact, it was only an hour since the last break.
But everyone is about to collapse. It is not only fatigue that tortures people, but also the invisible vitality and the dangers that come with it.
Suno nodded, not even having the strength to speak. But he still tried his best to check several wounded people first.
Fortunately, the injuries of the remaining three wounded have remained stable.
Two other people woke up midway, and Suno gave them glucose and painkillers.
When they continued on the road, everyone was dragging their bodies, the soles of their shoes were almost touching the ground, and they didn't even have the strength to lift their feet.
However, when it was about to get dark, large snowflakes fell from the sky again.
The dark clouds blocked the last light of the setting sun, and the woods were almost black and gray, making it difficult to tell the direction.
The large snowflakes reflected the only little light, making the surroundings more hazy and cold.
Everyone had to quicken their pace, not because they still had the strength, but because they were worried that the wind and snow would erode their last remaining body temperature.
All the people carrying the stretcher had trembling limbs, and the frequency of substitutions became more frequent, but this could not prevent physical exhaustion.
Li Siwang is a sensible child. He had to come down and walk on his own an hour ago, and no longer let adults carry him.
Gu Chenglan, Gu Feifan and Su Yang had already joined in carrying the stretcher, and they carried it for several hours, which was the longest time.
Suddenly, the mountain earthquake struck again. This time the shock was unusually violent, catching everyone off guard.
With a "bang", Li Siwang fell heavily and once again injured his arm which was tied to a branch.
After all, the child couldn't bear it anymore and burst into tears.
Su Nuo quickly ran over and carefully picked up Li Siwang and protected him in his arms.
