Chapter 50: The Wound Split Open

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The little black bear, which had come into contact with the fresh air, had not even grown its fur. It was completely bald and carried its mother’s blood. It opened its eyes in a daze.

The little guy was held in Fu Xi’s arms and wrapped in a small piece of her dress. The first person he saw was Fu Xi.

Animals tend to recognise the first living thing they see as their mothers.

The muddled little bear opened his wet eyes and subconsciously regarded Fu Xi as his mother. He squirmed and rubbed his head against her palm.

The soft touch almost melted Fu Xi’s heart, and her eyes were filled with love.

Gong Hao took out the little bear and casually threw the uterus in his hand aside. Since the black bear was already dead, these internal organs were useless.

The two of them cleaned up and dragged the black bear’s body into the cave. The hundreds of pounds of carcass were so tired that they were out of breath and covered in sweat.

The sky was already dark and the temperature had plummeted. It was a completely different season than during the day.

Fortunately, Gong Hao had perfect wilderness skills. He picked up some branches and withered grass with Fu Xi and started a fire. Only then was the cave slightly warmer.

After starting the fire, the two of them sat by the fire to catch their breath. The little bear lay in the cloth and leaned towards the fire to sleep.

‘The wound on Gong Hao’s back was sticky with sweat, causing him dense pain. He gritted his teeth and endured it. Other than the slight creases between his brows, he didn’t show any emotion.
After a busy day, their stomachs were starting to pound.

Gong Hao took out a stone knife and cut off the black bear’s meat. With Fu Xi’s help, he cleaned it up and roasted it.

Although this kind of barbeque did not have a lot of taste, it was rare in such an environment.

Fu Xi, who had always lived a delicate life, wasn’t as picky as she was usually. She ate heartily.

In contrast, Gong Hao was much more refined. From time to time, beads of sweat would appear on his forehead. Waves of weakness welled up in him. He kept enduring the discomfort, not wanting Fu Xi to worry about him.
‘The wound on his back had split open a few times during the previous big movements, but he didn’t make a sound. This resulted in Fu Xi not knowing at all. His red face couldn’t be seen under the light of the fire.
Fu Xi sat beside him playing with the little bear and didn’t notice anything wrong with Gong Hao.

Gong Hao forced himself to stand up and walked towards the entrance of the cave, still thinking about strengthening the defense at the entrance.

But after taking two steps, his vision suddenly darkened, and he fell to the ground, losing consciousness.

Bang!

Aloud sound shocked Fu Xi, She turned around and saw Gong Hao, who had collapsed to the ground and stopped moving, and she immediately panicked.

“Ah Hao, are you okay?”

She quickly rushed to his side and helped him up with a panicked expression. Looking at his flushed face, she desperately called out, but received no response.

Gong Hao closed his eyes tightly. His entire body was burning. Fu Xi hugged him and felt her palms wet.

Fu Xi felt a strong sense of unease. It was only when she pulled her hand away that she realized that her palm was covered in blood.

‘The wound on Gong Hao’s back split open again!

Seeing this, Fu Xi was completely panicked. She felt guilty and her heart ached.

If she hadnt insisted on helping with the delivery of the black bear and hadn’t taken care of him, would Gong Hao have to endure the pain on his own all this time?

Fu Xi controlled her trembling hands to drag him to the side of the fire and quickly cleaned the wound. However, she didn’t know any herbs, so she could only tear off her dress and bandage him simply to stop the bleeding.
She touched Gong Hao’s forehead. The burning sensation made Fu Xi subconsciously retract her hand. Gong Hao had clearly gotten a high fever from his wound infection.

In this situation, she did not have any medicine or medical skills.. What should she do?
