Natural disaster at the beginning: I will lead the system to build a safe zone

Guangming Village here was protected by a protective shield, so the hailstorm did not cause any damage to the village this time. Only five people from the mining team were injured. After receiving medical treatment from Shi Anan, they are now recovering.

Changle Village and even the town on the other side were not so lucky.

In Changle Village.

The familiar scene was played out again. There were cries of grief and wailing everywhere in the village. The houses that had just been repaired collapsed again. Those who had managed to survive last time might have closed their eyes forever.

This time the damage was even greater than last time because their doctor was also injured.

In Doctor Li's home, there are only Doctor Li and his only son, Li Zimu.

Li Zimu is 19 years old. Although his father is a doctor, he himself is not interested in learning medicine.

He was determined to take scientific examinations, and in fact, he was indeed talented.

At the age of 19, he had already passed the imperial examination and became a scholar, which was a remarkable achievement for a teenager from a not-so-well-off family. After all, many books in this era were controlled by powerful families.

Haven’t you seen Shi Anan’s elder brother? Despite the Shi family’s huge investment in training him, he was just an 18-year-old scholar at the bottom of the class, not to mention Li Zimu, who had to rely entirely on himself.

If it weren't for these catastrophic events, he would have achieved something in the future if he had continued to take the exams.

He even insisted on this until the moment before his father was injured. He believed that one day order would be restored and the scientific examinations would be resumed, and his books would still be useful.

But at the moment when the hail knocked his father down, he suddenly began to hate himself. Why didn't he learn some medical skills from his father? If he had his father's medical skills, he would not be looking at his lying father so helplessly and become so powerless.

Doctor Li was injured on his back. The hail was heading towards his head. Although he dodged it in a hurry, the hail still hit his back.

The hailstone had a sharp edge and cut a large gash on his back, causing a lot of blood to flow out on the spot.

Li Zimu was almost in a hurry to apply hemostatic medicine and bandage his wound, but it was not known whether he used the medicine incorrectly or because Doctor Li was old and his immunity was not as good as that of young people, he started to have a fever that night and it persisted.

Li Changlin gently knocked on Doctor Li's door. After a while, the door creaked open, revealing Li Zimu's gloomy and haggard face.

Li Changlin was stunned for a moment when he saw him. In his impression, Li Zimu had always been a young man with a gentle smile on his face, treating people with a warm and gentle manner, and having an enviable scholarly air. But now, where was he, with any of his former high spirits?

When Li Zimu was a child, he was always the envy of his peers. Although his mother died of complications during childbirth, Doctor Li always valued him very much and did not remarry for all these years.

Even though he only had this one son, he did not force him to study medicine with him so that he could inherit his medical skills in the future. Instead, he let Li Zimu do what he liked, such as studying for the imperial examinations.

When he passed the examination, Doctor Li was very happy and invited all the members of the Li clan to a banquet to celebrate for him. Although he had some savings from being a doctor for so many years, such a banquet would still cost a lot of money.

Li Zimu also respects and admires such a father.

"Doctor Li, are you feeling better?" Li Changlin asked. In fact, seeing Li Zimu's haggard appearance, he knew that Doctor Li was probably not feeling well.

Li Zimu shook his head. His eyes were bloodshot from staying up late, and his voice became hoarse: "The fever hasn't subsided yet."

Li Changlin frowned. Doctor Li was kind to their family. He and his father recovered from the last hailstorm thanks to the treatment of Miss Shi and Doctor Li. This time, their family was lucky to escape and no one was injured, but Doctor Li had a high fever because of the injury, and their family was very worried.

What's more, Doctor Li was the only doctor in their village. Because of his injury this time, more people in the village died because they did not receive timely treatment.

"Should we go to town to ask a doctor to come and take a look?" Li Changlin asked worriedly.

"I went there yesterday. The town was just as chaotic. The losses were even greater than ours because of the dense population. We don't have many doctors here. There were only three in the town. One of them was killed on the spot, and the other two were too busy saving people to spare time."

Li Zimu pounded his head in pain, his voice choking with sobs: "I should have learned medicine from my father."

"Don't say that. You didn't know this would happen." Li Changlin didn't know how to comfort him, but suddenly an idea flashed in his mind.

"Brother Zimu, please take Doctor Li to Guangming Village and find Miss Shi. She must be able to save Doctor Li!" Li Changlin said excitedly. Miss Shi was a favored person. She was able to save his father even though he was seriously injured.

Hearing this, Li Zimu asked in confusion: "Guangming Village? Miss Shi? Is she a doctor?"

"Although she said she's not a doctor, she has some very useful medicines. She saved my father from a severe hemorrhage before!"

"Brother Zimu, Doctor Li is now unconscious with a high fever, and there is no other doctor who can come to treat him. Miss Shi is our last hope."

"But..." Li Changlin's tone seemed to be hesitant.

"But what?" Li Zimu asked.

"But I don't think Miss Shi will leave Guangming Village to come here." After their last time together, he could see that Miss Shi was a person who could do big things. She must have something to do in Guangming Village. If she wasn't looking for iron ore, she probably wouldn't have come to Changle Village.

"If she is really as powerful as you said, then why not take my father to Guangming Village!" Li Zimu said indifferently. As long as he could save his father, he was willing to try any method.

Li Changlin was surprised by his decisiveness: "Brother Zimu, are you going to take Doctor Li directly there?"

"Father has had a high fever for two days. I've tried many methods to reduce his temperature, but it only goes down for a while. If the fever continues to rise, I'm afraid he won't be able to bear it. I'll take him there now." Li Zimu said, turning around and going in to pack his luggage.

"Brother Zimu, why don't I go with you? How can you take care of Doctor Li by yourself?" Li Changlin hurriedly followed in and said.

"No need for that. Your legs haven't fully healed yet, and you can't walk fast. You should take good care of yourself first. I can do it by myself." Li Zimu refused.

He first packed up the cart at home, then put a thick mattress on it, and then tied windproof cloth around the sides and the top. He carefully carried Doctor Li on the cart, took the clothes he had packed and the medicine and dry food he would need on the road, and then, under the watchful eyes of Li Changlin, set out on the journey to Guangming Village to seek medical treatment.

Although Changle Village is far from Guangming Village, the long-term exchanges between the relatives have created a relatively flat path. If one walks fast, one can reach the destination in one day. However, Li Zimu obviously cannot walk that fast while pushing Doctor Li.

It took him nearly three days to reach Guangming Village. On the way, Doctor Li's fever became worse. Previously, antipyretic methods could reduce his temperature and sometimes make him more awake. But on the third day, nothing worked and even the wound on his back began to fester and become inflamed.

Fortunately, we have arrived at Guangming Village. Whether we can see the real light depends on Miss Shi.
