Chapter 116: Injured
After stabilizing her body, Huang Zhihui smiled at Yao Ran and said weakly, "Thank you, Elder Sister Yao Ran."
Yao Ran nodded, and the two continued to climb the stairs. On the 20th floor, they moved the things to unit 2001.
While the others fell to the ground, gasping for air, Yao Ran quickly killed the poisonous moths that had gotten in while they were moving the things.
A few minutes later, Yao Ran had killed the poisonous moths and cleaned the floor. After that, she went home to get the medicine box.
Just now, she smelled a strong smell of blood around Shi Xuan and others. Judging from the painful expressions on their faces as they climbed the stairs, Yao Ran was sure that they must have been injured.
When she returned to unit 2001, everyone had taken off their protective clothing and rested in the living room.
Seeing her coming back with the medicine box, Shi Xuan smiled and said, "Thank you, Yao Ran."
Yao Ran nodded at him, sat next to Jia Xiang, opened the medicine box, and asked, "What happened?"
Jia Xiang rolled up her pants and showed her bloody left leg to Yao Ran. She grimaced in pain and explained, "We went hunting in the mountains and encountered a herd of wild boars. Unfortunately, we could only kill three of them while the rest ran back to the mountains."
Yao Ran looked at her leg and saw a bloody hole. She could even see the bone from the wound. Judging from the pus and the flesh's color around the wound, it was definitely infected. Since the poisonous moths are still infesting the city, getting injured is very dangerous. Toxins in the air can invade the body through wounds, and wet and cold weather will accelerate bacterial infections. If you are not careful, you will die from the poison rather than the wounds.
Yao Ran wasted no time and began to clean Jia Xiang's wound and apply medicine. While she was handling the wound, Yao Ran asked, "Why did you guys go up the mountain?"
When Huang Qian heard this, he sighed and said, "We have no choice but to go into the mountains and try our luck."
He smiled bitterly and added, "Most of the supplies in this city already sank under the water. People starve to death outside every day. When we went out today, I saw someone throwing corpses from upstairs, and there was more than one corpse."
"Although our supplies can last for more than half a year, they are getting harder and harder to find. What can we do if we run out of supplies in the future?"
After listening to his words, the others also looked gloomy and worried. Yao Ran has a lot of supplies, but she doesn't intend to tell them about her space.
When Long Yu came back and saw the gloomy atmosphere, he sat down and said, "Take today's incident as a lesson. Next time, remember not to underestimate the enemy. Even if the enemy is an animal."
Yao Ran heard what he said and glanced at him. Suspecting that Long Yu was also reborn like her, Yao Ran always felt that everything he did was preparing for the coming changes in the world.
As he said, the future will become more dangerous. After the nuclear power plant explodes, the world will be enveloped in nuclear radiation, and all living things will mutate.
The most dangerous are animal mutations. By then, even a small spider can destroy a group of humans with superpowers.
After treating their injuries, Yao Ran sat next to Long Yu and said, "Let me see your wounds." Long Yu obediently showed her his right arm. There was a long gash, but it wasn't particularly deep.
Yao Ran disinfected the wound, injected anesthetic, and then sutured it. She then distributed painkillers, anti-inflammatories, antibiotics, and antidotes to them.
After Yao Ran cleaned up the tools and put them into the medicine box, everyone sat around the low table and discussed how to deal with the wild boars. Only Yao Ran and Long Yu have solar generators, so they don't have enough storage, and the meat cannot be stored for too

"We found several boxes of charcoal before. How about we make them into a barbecue?" Huang Qian suggested.
Shi Xuan shook his head, "Barbecue uses a lot of charcoal. Also, how long will it take to roast three wild boars? By the time we finish, we may use up all the charcoal, and the whole community will know that we have meat to eat."
Huang Qian scratched his head and asked, "Then what should we do with the meat? We only have a little salt, so we can't cure it."
Long Yu thought for a while and asked, "Do you guys still remember Ling Yi and Yuan Rihui?" Shi Xuan raised his eyebrows, "Are you talking about the black market dealers?" Long Yu nodded, "I heard that black market dealers also buy things. Since we can't eat all the meat and there is no way to preserve it, let's find a way to sell it to Ling Yi."
The last time they bought compressed biscuits from them, Ling Yi and Yuan Rihui seemed pretty reliable.
Yao Ran pondered for a moment and said, "I agree with Long Yu."
Since they had no other suggestions, they agreed and began to clean up the wild boars. Due to the poisonous moths outside, they couldn't slaughter the wild boars on the rooftop, so they decided to clean them in the kitchen.
The wild boars were larger than the pigs they found on pig farms. The weight of each wild boar is at least 400 kg. The skin is thick and rough. The meat is dark red and has almost no fat. Looking at the size of the wild boar, Yao Ran said, "We should chop the meat into small pieces, and then took a few pounds to see if Yuan Rihui wanted it. If he asks, don't tell them how much meat we have. Just tell them we have more and want to trade them in bulk."
