Xiao Jin walked over to Su Ying with the handkerchief and gently wiped the blood off her face. After wiping her face clean, he carefully examined her face. Su Ying languidly slapped his hand away. “There’s no injury on my face.” Only then did Xiao Jin release his hands. He threw the handkerchief back into the basin and reached out to undo Su Ying’s clothes.
At this moment, Su Ying had long forgotten about the rule that men and women must observe gender rules of propriety. Her mind was filled with thoughts of how to cook those birds so they would taste better. If she didn’t gobble them down, it would be difficult to appease the hatred in her heart. When she felt a slight chill on her body, she was shocked to realize that Xiao Jin had already stripped her stark naked. He was squatting in front of her and wiping her chest with rapt attention.
Su Ying was downright speechless.
She felt a little annoyed. He had stripped her naked without even saying a word, but when she saw his incomparably earnest eyes and meticulous movements, she felt that she might have been thinking too much.
Just as he took the medicine and was about to apply the ointment on her chest, Su Ying grabbed his hand.
“It’s quite enough already.”
Xiao Jin lowered his eyes but did not let go. “You did the same to me before.”
“How can that be the same?”
Xiao Jin raised his eyes and looked at her with a deep gaze. “How is it different?”
Su Ying paused. For a moment, she had no words to refute him.
While she was in a daze, the slightly cooling medicine and his slightly warm fingertips landed on her chest.
Su Ying was at a loss for words.
Goosebumps rose all over Su Ying’s body. She pushed him away with a slap. “I can see the injuries in front. I’ll do it myself. 1 don’t need you!” As she spoke, she pulled the underwear beside her and put them on.
Xiao Jin fell onto the floor on his butt after being slapped by her. He wasn’t angry and just stood up with a blank expression. “Why didn’t you say so earlier?”
Su Ying was dumbstruck. She felt that something was wrong somewhere, but she could not put her finger on it.
Xiao Jin asked her to sit down on the stool and began to apply medicine to her back.
Su Ying wasn’t short, but her frame was small. Xiao Jin’s eyes were filled with heartache as he looked at the vaguely protruding ribs on her back.
“You clearly ate so much. Why are you still so skinny?”
Su Ying was sprawled on the table. She seemed to have smelled a roasted bird just now.
“Skinny? Seems like 1 am eating too little.”
The wounds from the bird’s pecking weren’t big, and Su Ying was wearing a protective suit, so there weren’t many wounds on her back. No matter how powerful the beak was, it would be difficult for it to penetrate the bulletproof vest.
After Xiao Jin treated all her wounds, he realized that she had fallen asleep sprawled out on the table. He could only help her change into the rest of her clothes and carry her to the bed. After covering her with a blanket to let her have a good sleep, he began to treat the injuries on his body.
However, as he looked at the wound on his chest, he felt that his palm seemed to have a lingering sensation of her softness…
When Su Ying woke up again, the sky outside was already bright. She sat up on the bed, but she was already so hungry that her stomach felt numb.
She saw that she already changed into a clean dress. Xiao Jin must have helped her put it on.
Su Ying put on her outer clothes and walked out, only to see the courtyard filled with plucked birds.
“Mistress, you are awake. Last night, you fell asleep without eating anything. I will bring you breakfast now, Mistress,” Lin Zhuyu said as she ran to the backyard. When she came back, she was carrying a large basin of dough bits soup.
Su Ying was truly famished. She didn’t care if it was hot. She held the basin and immediately started slurping down the dough bits soup.
After that, Bai Shuang brought over quite a lot of fried bird meat. “Mistress, this is the bird meat I left for you last night. There’s still a lot in the pot. Eat it quickly.”
These birds were not small. Each of them was about the thickness of an arm. Moreover, they were muscular. Perhaps they had been trained frequently, but the meat of these birds was very firm and it tasted especially delicious.
“Have all of you eaten?”
“Mistress, we’ve already eaten.”
Su Ying didn’t ask any more questions and began to focus on eating.
As there were simply too many birds, Bai Shuang and the others went to the backyard to pluck the feathers of the birds again after they saw that Su Ying had started eating.
Fortunately, the weather was cold now, and these birds were all frozen. If it was a hot day, these corpses would definitely stink.
After eating her fill, Su Ying prepared to head out. She wanted to walk around the base camp and check on the casualties. “Wang Su, you and Zhao Neng stay at home and guard the place.”
“Yes, Mistress.”
Su Ying mounted her horse and headed for the Tiger Base nearby.
Along the way, bird corpses could be seen everywhere. There were even more of them when she reached the Tiger Base.
“Madam Su, you are here.” When the guards of the Tiger Base saw Su Ying had arrived, they all stepped forward to greet her.
Su Ying waved her hand indifferently, gesturing for them to straighten up. “How was the situation yesterday? Have you tallied the casualties in the East District?”
“After those birds left yesterday, the Leader sent someone to tally them. Three people died, and almost everyone was injured. There were twenty to thirty people who were seriously injured, and most of them had their eyes pecked.” Su Ying frowned slightly. “Have you treated all those with serious injuries?” “The doctor is treating them.”
“Bring me there to take a look.”
“Yes, Madam Su.”
Su Ying was brought to a room in the backyard of the Tiger Base. The room was very large, and it was filled with large bunks. Just as she reached the outside of the door, she heard a cacophony of wailing coming from inside.
Su Ying walked into the room and saw the injured lying on the beds. There were several people in the room treating the wounds of the injured, but only one of them was a doctor.
Su Ying walked up to the nearest injured person and saw that one of his eyeballs had been pecked out. His eye socket was a bloody mess, and his head and face were covered in blood.
However, the doctor was dealing with another patient’s injury and had no time to take care of him.
Fortunately, she was here today to deal with the injured. She untied her bag and took out the tools and medicine she needed. “Go and get more clean hot water.”
“Yes, Madam Su.”
“Don’t move. Don’t touch your eyes with your hands to avoid infection.”
Su Ying grabbed the injured man’s hand and gestured for the people beside her to step forward and hold the injured man’s hands and feet.
“Bear with it. It won’t hurt much longer.” She took out the anesthetic micro syringe. After wiping the blood off his face and disinfecting it, she gave him local anesthesia.
As soon as the anesthetic syringe was injected, the other party’s pain was instantly reduced a lot and he no longer struggled wildly.
His right eyeball was gone, and his eyelid was almost pecked out. Fortunately, the injury wasn’t too deep. Su Ying carefully disinfected and applied anti-inflammatory medicine to prevent post-surgical infection. Following that, she examined his other eye.
Fortunately, his other eye was still there. In order to make it easier to deal with the wound on his head, she took out a razor and shaved his head. After shaving his head, the external injuries on his scalp were exposed in full view. The sight made one’s skin go numb.
Fortunately, the guy’s skull was hard enough and his skull was not injured. At most, he would suffer from partial baldness in the future, which was still better than losing his life.
After treating the more serious injuries, Su Ying left the rest to the other people while she went to check on the next patient.
“It hurts… It hurts… It hurts a lot! Help! Help!”
Su Ying walked up to the next victim and found that his entire face was a bloody mush..
