Chapter 1757 Sixth Grade Leaf Mountain Ginseng Omen?
Just as Zhao Jun felt a sense of relief upon seeing that Hua Long's intestines were still intact, he heard the devastating news from Xie Chen.
Zhao Jun didn't speak, but turned to look at Jie Chen. Jie Chen quickly took a few steps to Zhao Jun's side, and said in a low voice, "Brother Zhang said that Big Black's chest was pierced by Xiong Ba's claws, and his lungs were also gouged out. Now, when he breathes, blood foam comes out of his mouth."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Jun frowned, blinked twice, and felt a pang of sadness.
Zhao Jun wanted to go see Lao Hei, but when he looked down, he saw Hua Long staring at him with his big, watery eyes.
"Brother!" Just then, Li Baoyu's voice came from not far away: "Come and take a look!"
"What's wrong? Tell me!" Zhao Jun didn't move, because Hua Long's intestines were still sticking out. If no one was watching, and Hua Long moved around and ruptured his intestines, there would be no saving him.
“The bear lifted up Little Flower Rib Fan,” Li Baoyu said. Zhao Jun immediately replied, “Let’s wrap it with bandages first.”
After saying that, Zhao Jun stood up and asked Xie Chen, "Xiao Chen, do you need to pee?"
“I didn’t,” Xie Chen shook his head and said, “I peed before I came up here.”
Upon hearing Xie Chen's words, Zhao Jun said, "Come on, I'll pee, and you can clean Hua Long's intestines."
"Huh?" Jie Chen was taken aback, and then he heard Zhao Jun say, "You hold my intestines while I urinate on them. You rub off the dust and straw stuck to your intestines, and after you're done washing them, you stuff them back in."
"This..." Xie Chen hesitated for a moment, but finally patted Hua Long's head and said, "Hua Long, your brother Chen did all this for you."
"Alright, stop dawdling," Zhao Jun urged Jie Chen as he unzipped his pants. Just then, someone called out, "Brother Jun!"
Gu Yang jogged over to Zhao Jun's side and said, "You have a black dog whose spine was damaged by Xiong Ba. Uncle Wang is dealing with that dog over there. After he finished, Uncle Wang sent me over to see if there's anything I can do to help you."
"Hey, brother!" Upon hearing this, Xie Chen quickly pulled Gu Yang over and said, "Hurry up and help our brother Jun save this dog, or it's doomed."
Gu Yang, whose arm was being held by Jie Chen, was somewhat flattered. Ever since he rejected Liu Tiezui's marriage proposal, the families gathered around the Zhao family had not treated him very well.
After Gu Yang took Xie Chen's place, he was shocked to see Hua Longchang's intestines sticking out and exclaimed, "Brother Jun, what happened to this dog's wound? Can it still live?"
"Yes!" Before Zhao Jun could speak, Jie Chen interjected to Gu Yang, "Brother, as long as you're willing to save it, this dog can live!"
"Then I'm willing!" Gu Yang puffed out his chest and said loudly, "This dog just saved me, how could I not save it?"
After saying this, Gu Yang inadvertently noticed that Zhao Jun had opened the front of his trousers.
"Hey, Jun-ge? What are you doing?" Gu Yang asked. Zhao Jun replied, "You hold onto the part where the dog's intestines are coming out, and then I'll pee to wash its intestines. I'll wash one roll, and then you stuff one roll back in."
"What the hell?" Gu Yang could hardly believe his ears. When he turned to look for Jie Chen, he found that Jie Chen had already gone to Li Baoyu's side.
"Stop standing there, huh?" Urged by Zhao Jun, Gu Yang reluctantly squatted down next to Hua Long.
"Brother Jun, how about I get some clean water to wash it?" Gu Yang suggested. Zhao Jun replied, "Nothing is as clean as pee, and besides, pee can disinfect."
Gu Yang frowned, and then heard Zhao Jun say, "Thank you for your hard work, brother. There's nothing I can do about it. I'll thank you properly another day."
"Brother Jun, why are you saying that?" Gu Yang lifted a piece of intestine from Tie Hualong's wound and said, "You've helped me so many times, you even saved my life."
"Oh dear!" Hearing Gu Yang's words, Zhao Jun felt a pang of emotion. In their past life, they had a good relationship, but their lives hadn't been easy. Now that Zhao Jun's life was better, he hoped that Gu Yang would be better too.
But that's a story for later. Right now, saving Hua Long is the priority. Zhao Jun started urinating, and Gu Yang helped clean Hua Long's intestines, stuffing a section into Hua Long's stomach after each section was cleaned.
To be fair, Zhao Jun was in decent health. He managed to urinate six times from front to back, which was enough to thoroughly clean Hua Long's exposed intestines.
After Hua Long's intestines were cleaned up, Jie Chen returned with his military water bottle.
"Come on, brother," Xie Chen said warmly to Gu Yang as he unscrewed the kettle lid, "Let me wash your hands."
After speaking with Gu Yang, Jie Chen leaned towards Zhao Jun and said, "Brother Jun, I have needles and thread and gauze in my pocket."
Zhao Jun reached into Xie Chen's pocket and pulled out a thick needle and thread, as well as a roll of bandage.
Zhao Jun threaded the needle through the eye of the needle, squatted down and said to Hua Long, "Bear with it, Hua Long!"
After saying that, Zhao Jun began to stitch up Hua Long's exposed intestines.
For injuries like Hua Long's, we can only treat them simply for now; there's nothing else we can do. There's nothing on the mountain, so we'll have to leave it at that for the time being.
Zhao Jun pierced the flesh with a needle, and Hua Long let out a "humph" and moved his head slightly.
Seeing this, Zhao Jun immediately sensed something was wrong. He quickly stitched up the wound with more than ten stitches and then gently helped Hua Long to his feet.
As soon as he touched Hualong's back, he heard Hualong roar. Only then did Zhao Jun realize that the skin and flesh on Hualong's other side of his ribs had been torn open by bear claws.
The exposed area was about the size of three palms, no wonder Hua Long was lying there without moving.
But it was thanks to this injury that Hualong could lie quietly on the ground; otherwise, dragging its intestines around might have broken them.
Zhao Jun quickly took out bandages to bandage Hua Long's wounds. This was the only way to deal with it for now; he could treat it more carefully when they got back.
Not far away, Gu Yang crouched down, did a split, put his hands together, stretched out to catch the water that Jie Chen poured out, and then repeatedly rubbed his hands.
"Is that enough?" Jie Chen asked, but Gu Yang replied, "Brother Chen, pour it for me a couple more times, I'm going to wash my face."
"Wash your face?" Jie Chen was taken aback, then heard Gu Yang mutter softly, "Brother Gangjun... splashed it on my face."
"Cough...uh!" Xie Chen bent down to pour water for Gu Yang. While Gu Yang was washing his face, Xie Chen, who was trying to suppress his laughter, turned his head away.
But when Xie Chen turned his head, he saw a tattered suit of armor under a red pine tree.
"Alright, Brother Chen." Gu Yang, having washed his face, used his hands to lift his clothes and wipe his face.
Hearing that it was alright, Jie Chen unscrewed the kettle cap and walked towards the tattered armor.
Upon reaching the tree, Jie Chen slung the water bottle over his shoulder and then bent down to pick up the armor.
When he got up, he looked up and saw something on the tree trunk.
"Oh!" Jie Chen's eyes lit up, but he quickly lowered his head and walked towards Zhao Jun with the armor.
"Brother Jun," Jie Chen said to Zhao Jun as they walked, "Is this Hua Long's armor?"
Zhao Jun glanced at it and saw that the armor was shattered and torn on both sides.
"Oh dear!" Zhao Jun sighed, "If the armor is damaged like this, how can the dog not get hurt?"
"Thank goodness for this armor," Xie Chen said, "otherwise the dog would be finished."
“What else is there to say?” Zhao Jun replied. At that moment, Jie Chen came to Zhao Jun’s side, squatted down and whispered in Zhao Jun’s ear, “Brother Jun, there’s an old omen in that tree over there.”
"Huh? What?" Zhao Jun was taken aback, then saw Jie Chen glance to the east before whispering, "There are old signs on the trees, this area seems to be Lao Anzi."
"Old Anzi?" Zhao Jun frowned and looked in the direction Xie Chen had just been looking.
"Nephew." But at that moment, Wang Qiang's voice came from behind.
"What's up, Uncle?" Zhao Jun asked. Wang Qiang replied, "How's Hua Long?"
"It won't die," Zhao Jun said. "Uncle, didn't you see the other dogs?"
"I saw it." Wang Qiang said with a worried look, "Except for Tiger, all the other dogs are injured. Xiong Ba even tore off half of Erhei's skin."
"Is it wrapped up?" Zhao Jun asked. Wang Qiang replied, "It's simply wrapped up. The dog is lying over there."
After saying this, Wang Qiang said to Zhao Jun, "Nephew, you go and deal with Qinglong and the others. After you're done, I'll go and gut these Xiong Ba. Make sure to take out their gallbladders, otherwise these dogs will have suffered for nothing."
Hearing Wang Qiang say this, Zhao Jun stood up and said to Xie Chen, "Xiao Chen, go with your uncle and lend him a hand."
Jie Chen agreed and quickly left with Wang Qiang.
"Come on, Gu Yang, come with me." Zhao Jun called to Gu Yang. At this moment, Gu Yang was somewhat resistant, but he was an honest man. Although he was afraid that Zhao Jun would make him catch urine with his bare hands again, he agreed.
Seeing that Zhao Jun was about to leave, Hua Long, who was lying on the ground, let out a whimpering sound.
It was so badly injured that it couldn’t get up. Seeing that its owner was about to leave, Hualong was afraid that it would be abandoned by its owner.
Zhao Jun turned around and met Hua Long's watery, helpless eyes.
Zhao Jun's heart softened instantly, and he hurriedly said to Gu Yang, "Brother, I'll hold this dog, can you help me support it for a bit?"
Since arriving at Zhao Jun's house, Hua Long has been eating well and has gained nearly 100 pounds.
It wasn't easy for Zhao Jun to hug it.
With Gu Yang helping to hold him, Zhao Jun carried Hua Long to Er Hei and Da Hua's side.
Beside Erhei lay its tattered armor. Not only was one side of Erhei's skin torn open, but there were also wounds on its back from being clawed by a bear.
Dahua's injuries were relatively minor, but her shoulders and buttocks were scratched.
At this moment, Zhao Jinhui, his chubby face trembling, ran towards Zhao Jun.
"Brother Jun," Zhao Jinhui said to Zhao Jun with tears in his eyes, "Go and take a look. I think that old black guy is suffering a lot."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Jun quickly followed Zhao Jinhui in that direction.
At this moment, Zhang Yuanmin was bandaging Qinglong's wounds; Qinglong had injuries to his back, left rib, and right hind leg. Seeing Zhao Jun approaching, Qinglong instinctively stood up, but Zhang Yuanmin grabbed him.
Qinglong's gaze followed Zhao Jun, but Zhao Jun ignored it and quickly walked up to Big Black.
Big Yellow was guarding Big Black, and Big Yellow was also injured, but not badly; only a piece of skin was torn off its buttocks.
Seeing Zhao Jun approach, Big Huang stood up and made a gurgling sound. At this moment, Little Bear, Black Dragon, and Green Tiger, whose injuries did not affect their mobility, gathered around Zhao Jun, surrounding him and Big Black, whose body was limp on the ground, keeping Gu Yang outside.
At this moment, Big Black's every breath was accompanied by violent heaving of its body. There were two holes side by side behind its left elbow; the brown bear's sharp claws had not only pierced through its armor but also its body, and had damaged its lungs.
With each breath the dog took, air leaked from the wound. As air leaked, blood foam and blood bubbles continued to swell out.
The hunting dog lying on the ground glanced at Zhao Jun when it saw him arrive. The dog couldn't get up; otherwise, it definitely wouldn't be acting this way.
Zhao Jun gently patted Lao Hei's head and whispered, "Lao Hei, I'll send you away so you won't have to suffer like this anymore."
Whether or not he understood Zhao Jun's words, Big Black blinked rapidly.
The moment its eyelids closed, a tear slid down the fur on the dog's face.
Zhao Jun felt terrible, but he still picked up Big Black with all his might and slowly walked towards the woods not far away.
As soon as Zhao Jun moved, Qing Laohu and the other dogs followed suit. Seeing this, Zhao Jinhui hurriedly asked, "Brother Jun, where are you going?"
"Jin Hui, bring me the sack." Zhao Jun only said this one sentence.
"Yes!" Zhao Jinhui responded, went to Zhang Yuanmin's side, and while untying the ropes binding the burlap sacks, called out, "Brother Jun, how many do you want?"
Zhao Jun didn't speak, but Zhang Yuanmin, who was bandaging Qinglong's wound, said, "Just get him one."
Zhao Jun carried Big Black to a pine tree, gently placed it under the tree, patted Big Black's neck, and then took the semi-automatic scooter off his shoulder as he stood up.
At this moment, the dogs, including Qing Laohu, stopped where they were and quietly watched Zhao Jun.
"Oh!"
Suddenly, a gunshot rang out, and even the dogs not in front of Zhao Jun looked up in the direction from which the gunshot came.
Qinglong forcefully broke free from Zhang Yuanmin's grasp, and Black Tiger, who was waiting to eat meat beside Wang Qiang, also ran towards the direction from which the gunshots came.
"Woof! Woof! Woof!" The green tiger behind Zhao Jun barked loudly, and the other dogs also joined in.
These hunting dogs, which recognize guns, did not rush over after the shot was fired as usual. Instead, they stood still, bidding farewell to their companions in a unique way.
Zhao Jinhui and Gu Yang, who had followed, stared blankly as Zhao Jun, who had been kneeling on one knee, put away his gun and stood up.
After getting up and turning his back to the two men, Zhao Jun blinked quickly twice to prevent the tears in his eyes from falling.
Big Blackie hadn't been home long, but Zhao Jun felt very sad to have to personally send the dog away.
But there was nothing that could be done; the dog was destined not to survive. If it tried to tough it out, Old Blackie could only last three or four days. During those three or four days, it couldn't eat, drink, or move; it suffered every minute and every second.
"Jin Hui, sack." When Zhao Jun turned around, his expression was as usual.
Zhao Jinhui hurried over with the sack and, together with Zhao Jun, put Big Black into the sack.
According to the old custom, if a dog dies on the mountain, it should be buried there. But today, there's a guy named Liu Hanshan. When Zhao Jun first met this old fellow after his rebirth, Liu Hanshan was digging up a dead wolf with Du Chunlin.
If Zhao Jun hadn't intervened quickly, Xu Changlin, in his rage, could have shot him dead.
To prevent Liu Hanshan from interfering, Zhao Jun planned to take Da Lao Hei down the mountain first, and then return to bury him.
In today's battle, the Zhao family's dog gang suffered heavy casualties. They lost Big Black, and seriously injured Two Black, Big Flower, Little Flower, Flower Dragon, and Yellow Dragon. Of the remaining eight hunting dogs, apart from Black Tiger, the other seven were still able to move, but all were wounded.
Under such circumstances, Zhao Jun couldn't even care about the three brown bears and hurriedly arranged to carry the dogs down the mountain.
Liu Hanshan's back was badly scratched by the mother brown bear; it was a miracle he could even make it down the mountain on his own. Wang Qiang, Zhang Yuanmin, Li Baoyu, Xie Chen, Zhao Jinhui, and Gu Yang each carried a badly injured hunting dog down the mountain, while Zhao Jun stayed behind to feed the dogs and secretly observed the old man Xie Chen had mentioned.
Sure enough, a piece of bark was missing from the pine tree, but it had been cut down some years ago, and the area where the bark was missing was grayish-black.
Zhao Jun could tell at a glance that this omen was over twenty years old, as the knife and axe marks on it were no longer clear.
Zhao Jun squinted and carefully examined the markings. The marks on the left should represent three people, but what about the six lines on the right?
Could it still be a sixth-grade leaf?
Autumn is here and the temperature is dropping, especially in Northeast China where it's chilly in the mornings and evenings. I've caught a cold and feel awful, so I haven't been able to update much these past couple of days. I'll see if I feel better tomorrow. Bye, to all my brothers in Northeast China, please take care and keep warm!
