It takes more than an hour to drive a bullock cart from Tianwa Village to the town. Riding a bicycle also requires half an hour of bumpy and tiring rides. Walking is an even longer and more difficult journey. For Liang Sumei, these travel methods are too inefficient and inconvenient.

She led him into the space mall and went straight to the car area to start searching for a suitable means of transportation. In this mall, there are all kinds of transportation from all over the world, from luxury sports cars to practical trucks, from high-speed racing cars to mighty tanks. There are all kinds of vehicles of all types and brands, which are dazzling. There are also model cars for simulated test drives, which allows her to quickly understand and master the driving methods of various vehicles.

Liang Sumei carefully observed each car, sometimes frowning, sometimes shaking her head. Although those racing cars and sports cars were fast, they were particularly harsh on the quiet country roads; although the trucks and armored vehicles had strong load-carrying capacity, they were too large and heavy for her. It was not until her eyes fell on a Lao Tou Le that she finally stopped.

Although the Lao Tou Le has an ordinary appearance, it starts quickly, makes little noise, and occupies a small area, making it very suitable for driving on narrow country roads. Moreover, Liang Sumei had driven a Lao Tou Le in her previous life, and was very familiar with its performance and operation, so she didn't need to spend time learning it. This is it! She came to an open space at the head of the village and took the Lao Tou Le out of the space mall. She skillfully opened the door, sat in the cab, turned on the brake switch, held the steering wheel tightly, and gently stepped on the accelerator. The Lao Tou Le started lightly and bumped flexibly on the country road. "Ride my beloved Lao Tou Le, it will never get stuck in traffic..."

On both sides of the road, endless corn fields stretched to the end of the sight. In the quiet of the night, Liang Sumei drove the car slowly forward. The corn leaves whizzed in the night wind and passed by the car window, adding a bit of abruptness to the silent night. Although she was a little scared, she still tried to stay calm and held the steering wheel tightly.

The car lights illuminated the road ahead, allowing Liang Sumei to clearly see the stones, branches and fallen corn stalks on the road. When her eyes inadvertently swept to the roadside, she made a shocking discovery that made her hair stand on end - there was a person lying there!

Liang Sumei hurriedly stepped on the brakes, turned the lights to the brightest, and carefully checked the person lying on the ground. The man's clothes were torn, and there was a pool of blood under his body. The faint rise and fall of his chest showed that he was still alive. Liang Sumei looked around and confirmed that there was no one else. She thought, it's better to leave this place quickly, so she drove the Old Man's Music around the man and continued forward.

However, the injured passerby kept lingering in her mind, which made her feel more and more guilty.

She carefully backed up to the man and turned off the lights. After a while, she found that no one else appeared. She mustered up the courage to get out of the car and dragged the man onto the back seat of the old man's car.

At this moment, Liang Sumei suddenly felt relieved, and the fear gradually faded away, as if it was dispelled by an invisible force. As the saying goes, "Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda." At this moment, it seemed that an invisible huge pagoda really descended quietly and surrounded her tightly. This mysterious pagoda was like an indestructible barrier, protecting her from the endless darkness and fear of the outside world.

Liang Sumei decided to send the injured to the hospital for emergency treatment first, and to have a safe place for herself to rest and wait for dawn.

In the hospital at night, dim lights filled the corridor. Liang Sumei walked in unsteadily, carrying a wounded man on her back. The door of the duty room was ajar.

She gently placed the injured person on the chair at the door, then carefully knocked on the door of the duty room. The doctor rubbed his sleepy eyes, glanced at her with dissatisfaction, and asked in a cold tone: "Where do you feel uncomfortable?" Liang Sumei didn't care about the doctor's attitude. She knew that being disturbed late at night would not make her feel good, so she calmly replied: "My friend is injured, please help take a look."

The doctor looked up but didn't see the injured person. Liang Sumei saw this and quickly dragged the injured person in. "Stop! You'll hurt him!" The doctor stood up to stop them.

The doctor asked Liang Sumei to help carry the injured person to a stretcher and then to the examination room. Under the bright light, the doctor used scissors to cut open the injured person's clothes and carefully examined him. He saw that blood was constantly oozing out of the injured person's abdomen. The situation was very critical and surgery had to be performed immediately.

The doctor notified the night shift nurse to wake up other nurses with surgical experience in the dormitory to prepare for the operation, and at the same time quickly bandaged the injured to temporarily stop the bleeding. He also asked Liang Sumei to contact the injured's family to come to the hospital as soon as possible.

Liang Sumei looked embarrassed and said hesitantly, "Doctor, I don't know his family." The doctor looked at her doubtfully and asked puzzledly, "Didn't you say he was your friend?" Liang Sumei lowered her head and explained in a low voice, "He... I actually picked him up on the road."

The doctor's face showed an even more puzzled expression when he heard this. He imagined various possible scenarios, and finally a scene of a young man and woman in love emerged in his mind. He guessed that the girl might have an emotional entanglement with the injured person, or that the girl's suitor stabbed the boy for some unspeakable reasons. "Little girl, you said he was your friend, and then you said you picked him up. You have to tell the truth. This is a matter of life and death. If he has an accident, you sent him to the hospital, but you have to take responsibility. Judging from his clothes and skin condition, he should be a man with a decent job, and his family may also be very powerful. I'm afraid you won't be able to handle it when the time comes!"

Liang Sumei was terrified after hearing this. She had never thought that this kind act might bring her trouble, and she was at a loss.

Seeing that Liang Sumei hadn't spoken for a long time, the doctor's tone became serious, "Young lady, I suggest you notify his family as soon as possible." He comforted her in a sophisticated way, "It's not uncommon for young people to have such things happen in their love lives in our hospital."

Liang Sumei was speechless for a moment after hearing what the doctor said. Who is in love and thinks I am a beauty? She sorted out her thoughts and thought for a while and said, "Doctor, I really don't know him. My family beat me up, so I ran away secretly. I ran into him by chance on the road and saw him like this. I was soft-hearted and carried him to the hospital. As for his family, I know nothing about them." She spoke sincerely and helplessly. In addition, Liang Sumei's face was still swollen after being beaten by her father, so the doctor, who was originally skeptical, couldn't help but believe it a little.

"Little girl, you are so young, but you have a really good heart. You see, since you kindly sent him here, our hospital has a rule that family members need to sign before any operation. Now we can't find his family members, so you might as well do a good deed and sign the consent form so that we can perform the operation on him. According to the regulations, we can't operate on him casually!" said the doctor earnestly.

Hearing this, Liang Sumei's hands could not help but tremble slightly. After all, she had never experienced such a thing before! If she failed to save the man in the end, wouldn't the man's life be counted on her? Thinking of this, her face became very ugly, and tears welled up in her eyes. For a moment, she was caught in a dilemma: on one side, there was the huge compensation she might face; on the other side, there was a living life!

At this moment, the doctor spoke again: "Little girl, if you hesitate any longer, I'm afraid his life will be in danger! You know, it was you who found him in time and sent him to the hospital. If I hadn't met you, he might have died on the roadside today! We doctors and nurses can be regarded as witnesses. Even if his family members cause trouble for you in the future, we will definitely stand up and testify for you!" The doctor's words seemed to contain some coaxing and deception, but at the same time, it also made Liang Sumei feel an unshirkable responsibility and pressure.
