Chapter 13: Rescue
Willy shook his head gently: "You hired me, it's my duty."
Khalil and the others didn't say much, but kept the kindness in their hearts.
"You guys go into the cave and rest for a night, I'll be watching outside."
After placing a few horses, Carrier walked out of the cave with a spear.
The darker it is, the more dangerous it is in the forest. Many terrifying creatures like to be out at night. If there is no one to watch the night, they are likely to be attacked by some beasts.
"Change me in the second half of the night."
Weilin said to Karil.
Khalil nodded and said no more.
Willy found a corner of the stone cave, found the place, lay down, and closed his eyes.
The series of actions to save Vicente just now also made him a little physically and mentally tired, and now a good night's sleep is the best way to rest.
Soon, sleepiness struck, and Willy entered Mengxiang.
The next day.
The first ray of sunlight in the morning shone into the cave, and Willy slowly opened his eyes.
"Are you awake? Eat something."
Still a little sleepy, Willy saw Lannie hand over a piece of jerky.
After the smell of meat, Willy's stomach growled. This is the first time he has seen meat since he came to this world.
"thanks."
After Willy took it, he opened the water bladder and drank some water before chewing the jerky.
"What about Vicente and the others?"
Willy looked around and found that he and Lannie were the only two left in the cave, so he asked.
Lanie pointed to the outside of the cave: "The boss said it's too stuffy in the cave, and Verin and Khalil are looking after him from outside."
"Vicente is awake?"
Willy thought that Vicente would continue to be in a coma for a while, but he didn't expect to wake up overnight.
"I'm awake, but I'm not in a good state." A worry appeared on Lanie's face. "The amount of trauma ointment is not enough. Although the wound has been wrapped, it still cannot stop the signs of festering."
Willy frowned, swallowed the last mouthful of jerky, got up and said, "I'll take a look."
Willy walked out of the cave, and immediately saw Vicente leaning against the trunk of a tree not far away. Beside him, Valyn and Karil sat.
Seeing Willy coming, Vicente's face showed a grateful smile: "Thank you, Willy, thank you for saving my life."
After falling into the wolf pack and continuing to attack last night, Vicente's consciousness was already blurred. He only vaguely saw Willy coming towards him with a long knife, and then he lost consciousness. It wasn't until he woke up this morning that Khalil told him what happened last night, and Vicente didn't know that Willy drove the wolves away and took the risk to save himself.
"It should be."
Willy didn't want to dwell too much on this topic.
He squatted down and looked at the wound behind Vicente's wrap.
At this time, the blood on Vicente's body has been cleaned up, but the wound wrapped in white gauze is still overflowing with blood.
"I'll take a look at your wound."
Willy gently opened the white gauze that wrapped the wound.
On Vicente, after being bitten by the black wolf, the flesh and blood have begun to stick together, but it is not the normal flesh and blood repair, but the adhesion after the flesh and blood has festered.
Willy's expression was a little serious.
He knew very well that if the wound continued to fester, Vicente would not be able to walk out of Morse Forest alive.
"It's all my fault. I should have prepared more ointments."
Lannie was on the side, sinking into deep self-blame.
"It's okay, I can survive."
Vicente's face was pale, but he forced a smile to comfort Lanny.
Willy thought for a while, and took Vicente's crossbow and several arrows in his hand.
"I'll go around."
Willy is very clear that if Vicente's wound is not dealt with in time, the tragedy will be inevitable. Since Vicente's life has been saved, it is better to lend a helping hand.
From the knowledge given by the primary collectors, Willy knew that there are many kinds of medicinal herbs with anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties, which may be found in Morse Forest.
"What are you going for?"
Wei Lin wondered.
"Find something."
Willy responded and walked into the distance.
Wei Lin hesitated for a while, then got up and held the long sword in her hand. She was worried that Willie was walking through the forest alone: "I'll go with you."
Willy did not refuse, one more person and one more security guarantee.
Willy walked among the weeds, looking for the medicinal herbs in his memory while watching for possible dangers.
"what are you looking for?"
Wei Lin followed behind Willy, observing whether there would be beasts attacking suddenly.
Willy didn't hide it, but said directly: "Find some herbs, maybe it can suppress the continued festering of Vicente's wound."
Wei Lin looked at Willy in surprise, not knowing what to say for a while.
He actually still understands the knowledge of herbs? But he was obviously just a country boy.
Since he met Willy, he seems to have been doing a lot of things that are difficult for ordinary people to do.
"found it."
Willy kept looking at the weeds under his feet, his eyes suddenly lit up.
Willy bent down and uprooted a cluster of dark green grass blades. He brought the root of the blade of grass to the tip of his nose and smelled it, and nodded lightly.
"Go back Willily turned around and rushed towards the cave.
Perhaps this blade of grass, which is also like a weed, can save Vicente's life.
"Lanny, please remove the gauze from Vicente's wound."
Willy had already returned to Vicente's side. He smashed all the herbs in his hand and twisted them into a ball.
Lannie looked at Willy blankly, not knowing what Willy, who had hurried back, was going to do.
"This is the herb that Willy found. It may be able to restrain the head's wound from festering."
Wei Lin explained on the side.
Lannie and Khalil glanced at Willy in surprise, while Vicente froze with a grateful look on their faces.
He wanted to say something, but Willy stopped him.
After Lannie opened the gauze from several of Vicente's wounds, vague flesh was revealed.
Willy spread the crushed herb evenly on Vicente's wound.
During the process of applying the herb, Vicente's expression twitched, and it was obvious that when the herb touched the wound, it would have a strong sympathy.
After applying the herbs, Willy said, "Don't re-wrap the wound first. After half an hour, some changes may occur."
"How sure are you?"
Caril asked in a low voice.
"Five percent."
In fact, Willy is 70% sure that Vicente can get through this difficulty, but he didn't say too much.
"Enough is enough."
Vicente smiled, no matter whether he can continue to live or not, he must keep this kindness of Willy in his heart.
Since the moment he decided to form a hired team, Vicente has been prepared for the worst. He has experienced too many life and death situations. This time, his mentality is very calm.
