Card: I Rebuild Five Thousand Years of Chinese Civilization in Another World

Chapter 20 Serious Injury
For everyone's safety, it's best to evacuate as soon as possible.

After being reminded by Jie Yuwei, the card spirit masters immediately realized what was going on.

Yeah!
They must leave this place as soon as possible; the monsters in the mountains are not easy to deal with.

Ignoring Xie Yuwei's unusual behavior, the card masters each picked up a child, carried them on their backs, and ran down the mountain.

Seeing that the children's faces were pale, Xie Yuwei realized that even after the crisis was over, they still hadn't woken up.

She said worriedly, "I don't know where they're hurt. We made such a commotion, but they still haven't woken up."

"Never mind, let's carry them back first," a young man said.

They made such a commotion in the mountains that the surrounding magical beasts would surely come running.

Now that the child has been found, they should go back as soon as possible.

Another man ran along saying, "Take it back and let Old Master Fei take a look!"

Xie Yuwei followed behind them, also covering their retreat.

On their way back, they soon encountered Xie Cheng, Xie Bei, and others.

Jie Cheng was startled when he saw the children on the Card Master's back: "They've been rescued?"

So fast?
He thought he was in for a tough fight.

The card masters looked at him with mixed feelings after hearing what he said.

Wasn't it all because of his niece that they were able to save the child so quickly?
Jie Cheng was puzzled by their stares. What was wrong?
Did he say something wrong?
Xie Bei, standing behind Xie Cheng, was also shocked. He asked incredulously, "How did you manage to save the children?"

Those are five low-level to mid-level demonic bears!
How could these incompetent card spirit masters possibly save someone in such a short time?
He looked at Xie Yuwei with suspicion.

There must be something he doesn't know about.

If he had known things would turn out this way, he should have walked faster.

If he catches up with them, he'll know what's going on.

Seeing his expression, the card masters knew what he was thinking.

Who among those present didn't know his character? Seeing that he was anxious for an answer, everyone tacitly remained silent.

The people were rescued. To avoid attracting the monsters with their commotion, they returned quickly. Before long, they encountered the last group of villagers heading into the mountains.

Among these villagers were relatives of the children. When they saw several children lying dying on the backs of adults, they cried out in despair:

"My child!"

Several people rushed forward to check on the children's condition and carefully took the children from the Kaling Master's back.

"Sister Lan!"

"Brother Hua"

"Xiang Ge'er"

……

No matter how much these people shouted, the children showed no sign of waking up.

"What should we do now?"

They were as anxious as ants on a hot pot.

Seeing that they were only concerned about the child, Jie Cheng immediately said, "Stop howling! What if you attract the monsters with your howling?"

The villagers were startled, only then realizing that they were still on the mountain.

The monsters in the mountains are bloodthirsty and ferocious. If they are lured here, none of them will even be enough to fill their teeth.

The group dared not linger there, and they quickly regrouped and descended the mountain together.

The descent was much faster than the ascent; everyone was eager to get home and soon reached the edge of the forest.

Just as everyone was about to enter the barrier, someone behind them suddenly shouted:
"Run! The monsters are coming down the mountain!"

The urgent shouts, like a death knell, urged everyone to run forward as fast as they could.

Xie Yuwei stayed at the back of the group, and when she saw the monsters about to catch up with them, she secretly tripped them up quite a bit.

Boom—Just as Xie Yuwei ran into the barrier, the fire wolves behind them launched an attack.

The attack struck the barrier, then dissipated like ripples on water.

Everyone inside the barrier breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the fire wolf blocked outside.

With the threat of monsters gone, the children's elders re-examined their condition.

"Sister Lan!" A soft and urgent voice rang out from behind the crowd.

Xie Yuwei looked toward the familiar voice and saw Xie Yufei rushing over, followed by the village's only doctor, Old Fei.

"Old Fei, please take a look at Lan'er, what's wrong with her?" Xie Yufei said anxiously to Old Fei when she saw Lan lying on her deathbed in her mother's arms.

While she was at home, she heard from the neighbor's child that Xiaolan had been captured by a monster while she was gathering firewood.

Anxious, she could only call on Mr. Fei to come and take a look at the back mountain.

Unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived, they saw Xiaolan being carried down the mountain by everyone.

After checking on each child's condition, Mr. Fei said to everyone:

"They must have been knocked unconscious by the demonic bear, and they have internal injuries to their lungs and internal organs."

After saying that, he shook his head and said again, "They are too badly injured. I can't guarantee that I can save them. Let's carry them to my house first."

The villagers started to lend a hand, helping to carry the children to Mr. Fei's house.

After the children were sent away, Xie Yufei finally saw her sister.

"Sister!" She ran to Xie Yuwei's side and tugged at her sleeve dependently.

"They'll be alright," Xie Yuwei comforted her.

As for whether Mr. Fei could save them, she didn't know.

Right now, let's calm Xiaoyufei down first.

Afterwards, most of the villagers went back with the children, while only a small number of the Kaling Masters and the leaders remained in place.

They stayed for two reasons.

The first reason: they wanted to see if the village's barrier could withstand the magical beasts coming down from the mountain.

Only if the barrier develops leaks and cracks can they repair it in time.

The second reason: they knew that Jie Bei wouldn't let it go, and he would definitely get to the bottom of Jie Yuwei's case.

Jie Yuwei's abilities were too mysterious, and they wanted to know the inside story, so they all decided to stay and observe.

In an instant, the atmosphere on the scene became tense.

Jie Bei stared at Jie Yuwei like a wolf and asked, "Sister Wei, how did you manage to rescue the child from the clutches of the five demonic bears?"

Xie Yuwei was no longer afraid of him. She looked directly at Xie Bei and said, "Uncle Bei, what kind of tone is that?"

Jie Bei felt that his patience was limited.

If she doesn't cooperate, he doesn't mind using the safety of the entire village to pressure her.

When Xie Yuwei decided to take action, she had already devised a plan. She addressed everyone present, saying:
"Let me tell you how they were rescued."

"First, I used the Crimson Blood Chicken to attract the Demon Bears' attention, and then I stung them with Blood Ants."

"Secondly, after they were poisoned by the blood ants, I used this dagger to cut their throats."

After saying that, she finally summoned back the Crimson Chicken and the Blood Ants' Kaling.

The two cards were returned to her hand, and she readily showed them to everyone.

She summoned the Blood Ant card in order to conceal the Black Mamba Serpent.
