A Hopeless Situation (1)

The few youths who had drawn away the demons were now exhausted. They had not managed to run far before the demons dragged them down. Under their fangs and sharp claws, the youths were transformed into puddles of blood. Not even a bone remained.

After the demons had divided up the youths to eat, they noticed unusual activity in the medicinal garden. They suddenly turned their heads and saw tens of human youths desperately digging up medicinal herbs.

In an instant…

The demons became infuriated. They roared and turned back towards the medicinal garden.

The ferocious roars reverberated in everyone's ears. Big tears unconsciously rolled from the youths' eyes and the hot tears dripped on the medicinal herbs that they had dug up. They squatted on the ground, looking at the demons that sprinted towards them. All they wanted to do was dig up more medicinal herbs.

Just one more herb, could save the life of another wounded person.
