Ling Shuyao was in so much pain that she did not have the strength to speak. She lay on the bed listlessly and groaned. She clenched her fists tightly and her arms kept trembling. It was obvious that she was in great pain.
Li Rui was secretly shocked. He was not in the mood to gloat at her misfortune. He was almost scared silly by her painful appearance. He saw that she had not put on her pants properly. Not only was her snow-white waist exposed, but her moon-yellow underwear was also exposed. His mouth was dry and he did not want to look anymore. He said, "I'll go find a doctor. Wait here." Ling Shuyao nodded and said, "Go quickly, go quickly. It hurts so much. It feels like I'm going to die. I can't take it anymore. Ah … "
Li Rui did not dare to delay. He turned and ran out. He came to the entrance of the village committee and looked around. It was pitch black and only a few houses had their lights on. He was very anxious. He did not know if there was a clinic in the village. He wanted to find someone to ask, but there was no one on the road. He had forgotten to ask Wang Tiekui for his phone number. Otherwise, he could call him now. He thought that it was impossible to just wait at the entrance. He might as well go out and look for someone. If he could not find anyone, he would go to the small shop where he bought the instant noodles.
He walked towards the small shop and looked around. On one hand, he was looking for someone. On the other hand, he was looking for a clinic. However, after walking for more than a mile, he did not see anyone. As for the clinic, he did not even see a sign. When he arrived at the small shop, he saw that the lights were still on. It was still open for business. He breathed a sigh of relief and hurried in to ask the lady boss about the location of the clinic.
Not bad. There was really a clinic in this small mountain village. It was diagonally opposite the village primary school.
After Li Rui found out the location and the way, he thanked the lady boss profusely. He turned and walked out of the small shop and headed south.
The road in the village was dark and there were no street lights. The dirt road was uneven and filled with large and small stones. It was very awkward to walk on it.
Li Rui did not have the time to care about this. He just strode towards the clinic. After walking for about a hundred meters, a Firewood Dog suddenly jumped out of an alley and barked at him. It kept making attacking gestures. This scared him to death. He hurriedly stopped, not daring to invade its sphere of influence, let alone run. He knew that if he turned around and ran, it would definitely chase after him. He stopped in place and confronted it, shouting, "Go away, go away, I still need to find a doctor to save my life …"
Of course, the dog couldn't understand what he was saying. It just barked at him. When it barked, all the dogs in the neighborhood barked as if they were of the same breath. Half of the mountain village was in an uproar.
Li Rui was angry and frightened, but he didn't dare to fight it. He looked around, trying to find a weapon to fight it off, but there were low walls on both sides of the dirt road, and the road was bare. How could there be a stick or branch to use as a weapon?
He suddenly had an idea. He took out his phone, turned on the flash, and pointed it at the dog. The dog's eyes were dizzy from the light, and it turned around to dodge. He took the opportunity to bark and stomp on the ground. The dog bullied the weak and feared the strong. It was scared when it saw the situation. It ran back to the alley with its tail between its legs like a stray dog.
Li Rui heaved a sigh of relief. He laughed awkwardly and shook his head. He quickly rushed through the entrance of the alley and continued on his way. He thought to himself, 'In the future, when I travel at night in the village, I must prepare a dog beating stick. This is a lesson for me.'
When the female shop owner gave him directions, it was very simple. She said, "Turn left, walk to the end of the road, then turn right and walk a few steps." But when he actually walked, it was not that simple.
Li Rui walked to the south end of the village in one breath. When he saw the wilderness and woods outside, he realized that something was wrong. He looked back and wondered if he had taken the wrong path. Otherwise, why didn't he see the legendary clinic when he was already out of the village? At this time, he learned another lesson. In the future, he must carry a flashlight when he walked at night. Otherwise, it would be a waste of time. He sighed and planned to go back the way he came. Coincidentally, there were two piles of firewood next to him. One was wheat straw, and the other was tree branches. He picked up a two-meter-long stick that was as thick as a thumb and used it as a dog beating stick. He waved it twice and made a whooshing sound. Satisfied, he walked back the way he came.
This time, he was lucky. After walking for a short distance, he met a young woman in the village. He quickly asked her where the village's primary school was.
This young woman had a simple personality. When she heard him, she didn't talk nonsense. She turned around and told him the directions.
This time, Li Rui remembered and didn't walk in a hurry. He carefully asked her about the directions and landmarks of each intersection so that he wouldn't go the wrong way again. The young woman was very patient and told him clearly. Later, she saw that he was holding a stick in his hand and asked, "Why are you holding a stick?" Li Rui smiled and said, "There are too many dogs in the village. I was almost bitten just now." The young woman smiled and said, "There are many dogs in the village, but they are all scared dogs. If you meet another one that bites you, just pretend to bend down and pick up a stone. That will scare them away." Li Rui was skeptical. He thanked her and walked forward.
When he passed by the entrance of the alley where he was stopped by the dogs, Li Rui subconsciously held the stick in his hand and carefully walked through. He secretly thought that the dogs wouldn't be so stupid, right? Why did they make things difficult for him twice? Just as he thought of this, a black shadow jumped out of the alley and rushed towards him with a roar.
Li Rui was scared at first. Then, anger rose from his heart. He thought to himself, "Do you think I, Li Rui, am easy to bully? You're just a damn dog that scares me all day. Today, I must teach you a lesson." He didn't say anything and waved the stick in his hand to hit the dog.
This Shiba dog was very clever. When it saw that he had a weapon in his hand, it made a "hum" sound from its nose. It turned around and ran back into the alley.
With Li Rui's temper, he would definitely chase it into the alley and hit it twice to vent his anger. However, he still had to find a doctor for Ling Shuyao. How could he have time to tangle with this little animal? Moreover, he had just taken a wrong path. He had already wasted a lot of time. Maybe Ling Shuyao was in so much pain that she couldn't bear it anymore. Therefore, he could only continue on his way angrily and ignore this damn dog.
After walking for another seven or eight minutes, he finally found the entrance of the village's primary school. He looked diagonally across and saw a house with no sign of a clinic. He guessed that the small clinics in the village didn't have signs either. He quickly walked over and looked around. He saw that the lights in the house had already been turned off. It was dark inside. From the outside, he couldn't tell that it was a clinic. However, standing here, he could clearly smell the smell of alcohol and all kinds of medicine. Judging from the smell, he should be able to determine that the clinic was here.
He walked to the door and knocked. No one answered. He pushed the door with his hand, but the door was locked from the inside. He couldn't push it at all. He looked at his watch. It was only seven o 'clock in the evening. Villagers in the mountain wouldn't go to bed so early at night, right? He knocked a few more times, but still, no one opened the door. He frowned and looked around. He saw that the house seemed to be converted from the southern house in the courtyard because there were two high walls on the left and right of the house. He had an idea and walked around the wall.
Sure enough, it was exactly as he guessed. He walked along the wall for dozens of steps to the east and then to the north. He saw a big house and quickly found the gate. At this point, he was finally sure that this clinic was converted from the southern house by the master of the house. Usually, he saw patients and saved people in this southern house. As for food, drink, and accommodation, he naturally returned to the northern house in the courtyard. The clinic was closed so early. The doctor, who should be the owner of this house, probably went back to the northern house to eat.
Li Rui walked to the door and saw that the two doors were tightly shut, but a small door on the main door was open. It was quiet inside. Looking inside, he could see that the lights were on in the north room. If there were lights, there must be someone inside. He knew what was going on and shouted loudly, "Is anyone here? Is anyone home? "
For the time being, no one answered. The dog barked first, "Woof, woof, woof!" It was annoying.
Li Rui subconsciously tightened his grip on the stick in his hand and got into an attacking posture. Fortunately, the dog in the courtyard only barked and didn't come out. He barked a few more times.
After a while, a middle aged woman came out of the northern house and shouted, "Who is it?" Li Rui said, "I'm looking for a doctor." The woman said, "He's eating. What's wrong with him? Are you worried?" Li Rui asked, "Can I go in?" The woman laughed and said, "Yes, there's nothing to be afraid of. Come in." Li Rui timidly asked, "Is the dog chained?" The woman said, "It's chained, it's in a cage. Come in."
Li Rui walked in and saw a black dog in a cage at the western wall. It was strange. Before he entered the house, the dog was barking non-stop. When he entered the courtyard, the dog stopped barking. He didn't know what it was thinking. He quickly walked a few steps and came to the cement steps of the northern house. He saw that the woman had a pancake in her left hand and a pair of chopsticks in her right hand. She was chewing in her mouth. It was obvious that she was eating. He said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I delayed your meal."
The woman said straightforwardly, "It's okay. Tell me, what's wrong?" Li Rui said, "My colleague was stung by something when he went to the toilet. He's in so much pain that he can't stand. I want a doctor to take a look." The woman led him into the house and said, "Let's talk inside."
