Serious Injuries, Treatment

"Father, brother… How is brother?" Ling looked at Ji, who was on the verge of death and cried so hard that his entire body trembled.

Xiao Jin could only hold up his body and embraced her for comfort. "It's okay. Brother will be fine." 

When Su Ying came out from behind the tree, she had a small bag in her hands and opened it. It was filled with medicine for external injuries.

Xiao Jin's Black eyes darkened as he looked at the medicine, and his cold, scrutinizing eyes locked onto Su Ying.

Su Ying was the daughter of the Prime Minister and had been pampered by her stepmother since she was young. She was a typical noblewoman who didn't even dare to lift a chicken, let alone kill a person. However, her behavior just now was completely different from before.

Xiao Jin's cold eyes darkened – she had really hidden it well.

Su Ying didn't know what Xiao Jin was thinking. She used disinfectant to wash the child's wounds to prevent them from getting infected, which would be more troublesome to treat later.

The antiseptic solution did hurt, but Ji didn't react at all. Su Ying couldn't help but worry that the child had lost consciousness.

After quickly treating the wounds, she took out anti-inflammatory medicine and fed it to him. In this situation, the effect of infusion would be faster, but the conditions did not allow it, so she could only give orals.

They were supposed to hurry on their way. But the bailiffs were beaten up, and now they didn't move. Everyone rested on the spot tonight.

Su Ying gave Ji nutrition supplements to ensure his body was supplied with sufficient energy.

After doing all this, Su Ying was a little tired. This body was too weak. She was only able to defeat those officials with the assistance of the power of the Infinite Strength Bracelet in her space.

If it was in the past, she could kill those b*stards with one finger, with no need for additional tools at all.

Su Ying's eyes met Xiao Jin's cold and scrutinizing gaze. She raised her eyebrows. She had almost forgotten about him.

She took out Xiao Jin's medicine again and placed it in front of him. "This is your medicine. If you don't want to die, then be good and take it." 

Xiao Jin's Black eyes narrowed. He looked at the black pill on the ground and didn't move.

"Why? Are you afraid I'll poison you? Why would I bother to treat your two crippled legs if I wanted your life? You can choose not to take medicine. But if you die, I will decide how to deal with your two children."

A cold and dark light flashed in Xiao Jin's eyes.

At this moment, a pair of tender hands reached out and put the medicine near Xiao Jin's mouth.

"Father, be good and take your medicine. You'll be fine after you take your medicine." 

Xiao Jin returned to his senses and looked at his daughter's big tear-reddened eyes. He coldly glanced at Su Ying, opened his mouth, and swallowed the medicine.

He didn't want to reject his daughter and to see her disappointed look.

Xiao Jin's injuries were too severe after all. Following the medicine, he felt a wave of sleepiness hit him, and he fell asleep in the blink of an eye.

"Father, father! What's wrong?" Ling was scared silly when he saw that Xiao Jin didn't move.

Su Ying went over to take a look. "Your father is just too weak and has fallen asleep. Let him sleep more. He will recover faster if he sleeps well. 

Ling looked at Xiao Jin, then raised her head to look at Su Ying. When her eyes met Su Ying's, she shrank back to Xiao Jin's side in fear.

Su Ying took out a compressed biscuit and gave it to her. "You must be hungry. Eat this." 

Ling's teary eyes trembled as she stared at the food in Su Ying's hand. She had not eaten anything since yesterday and was starving.

However, she didn't dare to eat Su Ying's food. "I'm not hungry!" 

"If you were not hungry, why did you steal food with your brother?"

Ling stared with her big red eyes and said: "Brother said that daddy would get better after he was fed. But I, we didn't have any food..."

Su Ying's heart skipped a beat. "So you guys went to the bailiffs to get food for your father?"

Ling nodded dejectedly. They were not skilled and were discovered by the bailiffs when taking the food. Now, they had not gotten the food, and brother was hurt.

Su Ying took the girl to her side and placed food in her tiny hands.

"Don't worry. Your father will get better. Guess who I saw when I fainted just now?"

Ling did not dare to move when she was suddenly held by Su Ying. She looked very pitiful with her big, teary eyes.

Su Ying's expression didn't change as she continued, "Do you know the King of Hell? He said that I'd done a lot of bad things and wanted to take me to the netherworld. But you two are too young. If I leave, no one will take care of you. So he let me go and asked me to take good care of you. He also warned me not to do bad things again, or he'll take me away." 

Ling was stunned. "Will the King of Hell take you away if you do something bad?"

Su Ying nodded firmly. "That's right, so you don't have to worry that I'll sell you off. Just eat this food in peace." 

Ling felt that the King of Hell's words could be trusted and did not reject Su Ying anymore. She held the food in her tiny hands and ate it in small bites like a hamster.

Su Ying was afraid that she would choke, so she took out a water sack from her interspace.

Ling also felt sleepy after eating and drinking to her heart's content. She curled her little body into a small ball, leaned against Xiao Jin, and closed her eyes.

Su Ying was also very sleepy but couldn't sleep because she was surrounded by evils, particularly since she had just taught the bailiffs a lesson. These people would definitely not let her off so easily.

It was autumn, and when night fell, the air was cold.

Su Ying took out heating pads from her interspace and placed them on the three. These were infrared heating pads the size of a fingernail. They wouldn't be noticed without special attention.

Once the heating pads were placed, they could keep the human body at a comfortable temperature for over a dozen hours.

After Su Ying put on the heat pack, she instantly felt much warmer.

It was time to distribute dry food rations, but there was no movement from the bailiffs.

The hungry prisoners rushed all around toward the bailiffs.

"No! No! There's no dry food ration today. If you want to eat, ask that woman. She's so powerful, and she surely has food for you."

The bailiffs were taught a lesson by Su Ying today. These criminals would turn the tables if they didn't find a way to get back at her.

Hence, they decided not to distribute any rations this evening. They would let the criminals find trouble with Su Ying and let her know the consequences of offending them.

The black shadow blocked the light from the descending sun in front of Su Ying. She lifted her head and saw three burly men come near.

"It is all your fault, you b*tch. You're the reason we don't have any rations to eat. Hand over those two little brats, or I'll make you suffer." 

The burly man was filthy. Under his messy eyebrows were a pair of bull's eyes the size of copper bells. At this moment, he was glaring at her angrily.

Su Ying remembered that this was the person who wanted to buy the two children.

"If you don't have any rationed food, you should go to the bailiffs. Why do you bother me?" Su Ying's eyes were cold.

"Spat! B*tch, I have nothing to eat, so I'll eat you!"

The three had ferocious looks on their faces, and they pounced on Su Ying like ravenous hyenas.
