Chapter 109: Chapter 108: Who Did You Say Her Fiance Is?

The situation took a dire turn, the outbreak was too sudden.

No one noticed, after the snakes scattered, why did the top-grade Lingzhi disappear into thin air?

No one paid attention, just as magically as they had appeared, they vanished just the same.

Only one person stopped suddenly while running down the mountain and looked back at the summit.

Since then, deep within Peng Mountain, no swarms of snakes were ever seen again, and the tales of the Lingzhi that couldn’t be picked slowly became an even more miraculous legend.

…

Su Shu remained unconscious.

The doctors from Peng Village’s medical team couldn’t identify what the problem was.

Everyone rescued from the mountain had been properly settled, one after another.

Tang Zelin, worried about Su Shu’s condition, was nonetheless pressed down onto a hospital bed by the head of the medical team.

“Group Captain Tang, you should worry about your own injuries first. If it weren’t for your skin and muscles holding you together, you’d have fallen apart by now!”

Tang Zelin had no choice but to agree, it wasn’t that serious.

However, he no longer made any difficult requests of the medical staff, only instructing them to let him know if there was any news about the girl next door.

The nurse said, “Of course, Group Captain Tang, we will keep an eye on your fiancee’s condition, please now cooperate with our treatment.”

As she spoke, the anesthesia needle was already in place.

Yet another person referred to her as his fiancee.

Tang Zelin didn’t have the chance to clarify before his consciousness gradually faded.

The head doctor of the medical team stood in front of the operating room, unable to believe what he was seeing: “To have held on until now with such injuries, it’s truly…”

What it truly was, the doctor didn’t say.

Meanwhile, Tang Zelin’s surgery was underway inside the medical tent.

And in another tent…

Su Shu’s head physician was searching desperately for a way to wake her up, sweating profusely.

But no matter how hard she tried, Su Shu remained unconscious, never waking up.

Upon returning to the village, Zhao Kang handed Su Shu over to the medical team and then immediately led his soldiers on another rescue mission elsewhere, leaving only one soldier behind to explain the situation to the doctors.

The doctor asked many questions, but the soldier couldn’t clarify any further, recounting only everything he had witnessed.

But it was as if he had said nothing at all.

The doctor’s eyebrows knitted together: “There are no signs of snake bites on her body, no symptoms of having inhaled poisonous substances or gases, and aside from exhaustion, all her vital functions are normal.”

Why won’t she wake up?

A nurse asked from the side, “Should we administer an IV?”

“Go ahead, focus on replenishing her strength and reducing inflammation.”

The doctor wrote a prescription, the nurse administered the injection, and Su Shu, with her eyes tightly closed, lay on the hospital bed, turned away, oblivious to her surroundings.

Peng Village continued its tense disaster relief efforts, dealing with food and water, medical aid, and search and rescues; everyone was fighting against time and disaster.

Time ticked away, second by second.

After an indeterminate amount of time, a black luxury car hurried into Peng Village.

The car stopped abruptly, and Shen Han, with a grave expression, got out, slammed the door behind him, and bypassed the passing crowd to head towards the Red Cross medical team’s location.

He reached out and grabbed a white-clad nurse, asking in a deep voice, “Hello, please, is there a girl named Su Shu here?”

That nurse, carrying medicine, thought for a moment: “Su Shu? I’m not sure, but Group Captain Tang’s fiancee’s last name is Su, I don’t know if that’s the person you’re looking for. There, she’s in that tent.”

“Alright, thank you.”

The moment Shen Han heard Su Shu’s location, he hurriedly let go of the nurse and moved forward.

However, after taking only a few steps, he suddenly realized what he had just heard, turned around, and in two or three long strides blocked the nurse’s path again.

His eyebrows furrowed slightly, “What did you just say? Whose fiancee?”

The nurse was taken aback, saying, “Group Captain Tang’s, why?”

She hadn’t misspoken, hadn’t everyone been saying that?

The man’s dark eyes suddenly darkened, his lips pressed tightly as he turned to see Su Shu.
