Chapter 643 Finding the Villagers
Chapter 643 Finding the Villagers
When Jiang Jiyun heard him asking about his uncle's condition, he quickly replied, "My uncle's injuries are quite serious. He's currently unable to make large movements, so I've sent him to the interstellar medical room."
She paused, looked at her brother, and said, "Once things here are dealt with, I will go to the county hospital to find a surgeon to provide further treatment for my uncle."
Jiang Jiyuan's hand paused only for a moment after hearing his sister's words. He responded and continued to concentrate on treating her wound.
He skillfully removed four bullets from Jiang Jiyun's body one after another.
Jiang Jiyun then quickly swallowed a special medicine, then slowly stood up and stretched his stiff body.
"I lost too much blood this time, I need to replenish my blood." Jiang Jiyun said as he hurriedly took out a cup of steaming red date tea from his backpack, tilted his head back and drank several gulps.
She felt a little dizzy, with snowflakes floating in front of her eyes and her body feeling a little cold, which were symptoms of excessive blood loss.
Seeing her like this, Jiang Jiyuan reached out and touched his sister's pale cheek with a distressed look, and said softly: "You rest here for a while, I'll go look for them outside."
Jiang Jiyun shook his head firmly, hung the kettle around his neck, and said, "I want to go to the village and take a look."
Jiang Jiyuan was a little worried about his sister going out alone. After all, she had just experienced a life-and-death crisis and was still very weak.
So he suggested: "Then I'll go with you, so I can take care of you."
"It's okay, I will pay attention to safety. There are many snipers in the woods. They should put away the sniper rifles that can be used. Brother Peng and I will go over to take a look." Jiang Jiyun said with a relaxed look, as if he didn't care about the dangers in the woods at all.
She knew that her brother and his team had limited manpower and needed more manpower to handle the situation here, so she couldn't let her brother accompany her, but decided to go with Peng Yongyan to check the situation.
Jiang Jiyuan looked at Peng Yongyan approaching, feeling a little worried, but still pretending to be calm and said, "Brother Peng, I'll leave my sister to you."
He knew that Peng Yongyan was a reliable person, but his sister was still young after all, and he was really worried.
Peng Yongyan sensed Jiang Jiyuan's worry. He patted Jiang Jiyuan on the shoulder and comforted him, "Jiyuan, don't worry. Xiaoyun is very capable. She has saved me several times. Don't look at her young age, but she is very capable. Don't treat her like a child."
Peng Yongyan looked at Jiang Jiyun with a smile and continued, "I now regard her as a comrade-in-arms who I can trust."
Peng Yongyan's words made Jiang Jiyuan feel a little relieved. He knew that Peng Yongyan was right and his sister was indeed outstanding.
But as an older brother, his concern for his sister inevitably made him a little overly worried.
Peng Yongyan understood Jiang Jiyuan's feelings. He knew that this kind of worry and confusion was normal.
When Jiang Jiyun heard Peng Yongyan's evaluation of him, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, and his eyes narrowed into slits due to smiling.
She said with great joy, "Brother Peng, don't worry, I will definitely protect your backs as if they were my own!"
Jiang Jiyuan and Peng Yongyan saw that Jiang Jiyun suddenly became energetic again. They smiled at each other and were both infected by her optimism and determination.
Jiang Jiyuan turned and walked into the woods to look for the sniper rifles. The previous explosion had caused a fire, igniting the surrounding dry grass and leaves. Although the fire had gradually died out, some places were still burning with flickering flames.
Jiang Jiyuan was a little worried, wondering if the sniper rifles would be burned.
Jiang Jiyun and Peng Yongyan quickly changed into bulletproof vests, put on helmets and masks, leaving only their eyes exposed.
Doing so could protect themselves from possible poisonous gases. They both took the detoxification pills made by Jiang Jiyun himself, just in case.
After everything was ready, they stepped into the village with their weapons. The rain had stopped, and the two men walked on the muddy road in rain boots and looked at the village in front of them.
The village was filled with the smell of gunpowder and dust. It was bombed beyond recognition, with ruins and broken buildings everywhere. It was a mess.
Jiang Jiyun and Peng Yongyan held pistols and looked around vigilantly, not missing any suspicious movements.
As soon as they heard the slightest hum, they would rush forward and fire another shot without hesitation to ensure that no one escaped.
Wherever the two men saw any movement, they would go up and shoot again. After they had walked through the entire village, they didn't even see the body of a villager.
"It's so weird!" Jiang Jiyun muttered to himself.
She widened her eyes and looked at the deserted village with suspicion, and her doubts grew deeper and deeper.
Reluctant to give up, she searched the village carefully again, leaving no corner untouched, but still found nothing.
At first, Jiang Jiyun still had a glimmer of hope and guessed that the villagers might be hidden in a cellar or something like that.
So, they took great pains and finally found several cellars in the village.
However, when Peng Yongyan opened the cellar door, he found it empty and there was nothing inside.
Peng Yongyan quickly comforted him, "Don't be discouraged, maybe they are still alive. Let's go look around the village again, maybe we can find some clues."
Although he was a little nervous, he still held on to the last glimmer of hope.
Jiang Jiyun nodded, and the two of them walked towards the back of the village together.
When they arrived at the back of the village, the last bit of hope was instantly shattered, and the scene before them made their bodies tremble involuntarily.
This was supposed to be the village pond, but now, the water in this big pond has turned into a hellish scene.
Corpses of young and old were floating on the water with their eyes tightly closed. The water in the pond had turned a deep black, like ink, which was chilling.
Due to the weather, there was no strange smell in the air, and even the smell of blood was hard to detect.
"Ugh..." Jiang Jiyun's stomach churned after seeing the scene in the water. She could no longer bear it, so she pulled off the mask and vomited with a "wow".
Peng Yongyan quickly turned around and patted her on the back. After she calmed down, he hugged Jiang Jiyun tightly with one hand and quickly took her away from this place.
If those Japanese devils had died there, Peng Yongyan might not have felt so sad, and might even have felt a little happy.
However, this is not the case. Those in the pond are all their compatriots!
Seeing such a horrific scene, even Peng Yongyan, a strong man, couldn't help but feel heartbroken, not to mention Xiaoyun.
Jiang Jiyun had completely lost the ability to think at this time. Her mind was filled with the scene in the big pond and could not be shaken off.
That is just the tip of the iceberg of the atrocities committed by the Japanese devils on Chinese soil. How many such tragedies are happening or have already happened?
