Chapter 1019: He Needs to Amputate His Leg!

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Xie Xuning was such a fool. Ye Tianxin recalled how Xie Xuning had overcome all odds to get them to safety.

“Mother, will Father’s legs be okay?”

Ye Linlang shook her head. “It looks pretty bad. If he doesn’t get his injuries treated soon, we may have to amputate his legs.”

Ye Tianxin and Li Qingcang were stunned when they heard that. They stared in disbelief. Amputate his leg? That must be some kind of joke. Xie Xuning was the youngest commander in the country. He represented its future.

“Mother, are you joking?” Ye Linlang shook her head.

“I’m not joking. Your father is also running a fever…”

Ye Tianxin quickly finished up the noodles in the bowl. She knew that a bowl of noodles with 4 eggs did not come cheap for the old lady’s family. She did not want to waste the food.

“Can Father move about now?”

Ye Linlang was worried too. There had been heavy snowfall for the past few days. The ground was covered with thick snow. She would not be able to move Xie Xuning all by herself. She already had difficulty walking, let alone helping Xie Xuning.

“The old man said that he would look for help tomorrow once it stops snowing.”

Ye Tianxin thought about it for a while. It sounded like a good idea, but she was not sure if her father could wait with his injured leg. “Mother, why don’t we get going now? We can find a place where we can get signal and then ask for help.”

“I think so too. We really shouldn’t delay any longer. Let’s go.”

Ye Linlang remembered that Xie Xuning did not have his pants on and turned to Ye Tianxin. “Why don’t you and Qingcang go out first?”

Ye Linlang was a little stumped. They had tied a wooden stick to Xie Xuning’s broken leg, which prevented him from wearing pants; she had to remove the stick to put his pants on for him. Either way, it would’ve been a hassle.”

It would’ve been easier if they use a stretcher to carry him tomorrow, but he had to have his pants on for now so Li Qingcang could carry him on his back.

Just as Ye Linlang was thinking of a solution, Ye Tianxin brought the empty bowls into the kitchen.

Ye Tianxin politely said to the old lady, “Madam, thank you for the noodles. They are very tasty.”

The old lady smiled and asked, “Are you really leaving tonight? It won’t be safe walking through such heavy snowfall.”

“Madam, given my father’s condition, we cannot wait any longer. Otherwise, it may be amputated when it gets worse.”

The old man quietly took out a wooden board when he heard that. He went to Ye Tianxin and said, “Your father’s leg is injured. Use this to carry him. It’s more convenient.”

With the help of the old couple, Ye Linlang and Ye Tianxin had Xie Xuning wrapped up tightly with clothes. They did not want the wind to get into his legs and further aggravate his injury. The old man used a rope to help tie his leg and keep it in place.

“Qingcang, are you ready?”

Ye Tianxin held on to Ye Linlang as Li Qingcang lifted Xie Xuning up.

“Thank you very much. We will come and visit you another day.” The three of them bowed slightly to the old couple.

“We’ll walk you out. You’re not familiar with the road here. You may lose your way.”

It was true that they would not know how to get out of the place. The old couple had lived there for years, after all. It was easier to have someone lead the way.

The old couple held hands together and walked in front of the three of them, with a torch lighting the path.
