When Captain Wang and Master Guo saw that Li Kaixin had calmed down, they quickly pulled him back a few steps.

Although I saw that the child was awake, his previous appearance still made me feel uneasy.

"Kaixin, does that boy named Xiaohu have any other health problems besides being weak?" Captain Wang glanced at the woman in the car and asked in a low voice.

Master Guo also joined in, his face filled with undisguised anxiety: "Yes, Kaixin, don't keep it from us."

He felt extremely distressed when he saw the child unconscious and his mother crying beside him, as if he were the one who had caused it.

"Captain Wang, Master Guo, don't worry, the child is really fine."

Li Kaixin looked at the two of them and said in a relaxed tone, "They were just too weak and blood, and the bumpy ride made them faint."

After hearing this, the two finally felt relieved.

But just as Captain Wang breathed a sigh of relief, his brows furrowed again, as if he had just thought of something.

"What's wrong, Lao Wang?" Master Guo noticed his expression and quickly asked.

Captain Wang looked up at Master Guo, his tone heavy: "Old Guo, do you think we can get to Inner Mongolia on time given their current condition?"

Upon hearing this, Master Guo's expression turned serious, and he immediately understood what Old Wang meant.

Given their current condition, it will take at least two more days to reach their destination.

The people in the transport team were fine; they had brought several days' worth of extra food.

But these people were different; the rations Director Sun gave them were only enough to last three days.

I hadn't considered this before, and now I don't know what to do.

Li Kaixin, who was standing to the side, did not say anything after listening. He had enough food in his secret space, but what if he took it out and everyone became suspicious?

At this moment, Master Chen and Master Zheng, along with four or five other masters, walked over.

Master Chen's gaze swept across their faces, his tone filled with concern: "Old Wang, Old Guo, Kaixin, why are you still standing here? Has the matter been resolved?"

"It's resolved," Master Guo replied, but before Master Chen and the others could even breathe a sigh of relief, he added, "But now, we've encountered an even bigger problem."

Then, he explained the predicament he was facing to everyone.

Upon hearing this, Master Zheng immediately suggested, "Isn't that simple? Don't we have enough food for the return trip and a few extra days? Let's give it to them for emergencies, and then ask the person in charge there for more when we get there."

"No! This absolutely cannot be done!"

Captain Wang sternly refused, and then explained:

"Putting everything else aside, all the extra food we have is only enough to last them one day at most. What if something happens on the way and they're delayed for another two or three days?"

"You need to understand that if a driver doesn't eat and drives, it will cause a major accident."

"Old Wang, what do you suggest we do then?" Master Guo chimed in. "We can't let them go hungry for the next day or two! With their frail bodies, they'd starve to death even if they didn't freeze to death."

Captain Wang was well aware of the urgency of the situation. However, he couldn't simply return the way he came; that would be a blatant disobedience to his superiors.

He was at a loss for a moment, his brows furrowed tightly.

Just when everyone was at a loss, Li Kai had a sudden inspiration and came up with an idea: "Captain Wang, I have a way."

This sound drew everyone's attention to him.

"Happy, tell me your ideas quickly." Captain Wang's eyes lit up, his tone tinged with urgency.

Li Kaixin didn't keep anyone in suspense, pointing to the surrounding mountains: "Captain Wang, look, there are mountains everywhere here. I can go hunting tonight. Wouldn't that solve our food problem?"

"No, no," Captain Wang quickly shook his head, his face full of disapproval. "Kaixin, this is too dangerous. What if something happens to you?"

Li Kaixin smiled, looking relaxed: "Captain Wang, you don't need to worry about that. This isn't the first or second time I've gone into the mountains alone. If you don't believe me, you can ask my master."

Upon hearing this, Captain Wang turned to look at Master Chen.

"Old Wang, there's really no need to worry about that. Going into the mountains with Kaixin is just like having fun!" Master Chen replied with a smile.

Thinking back to those times in Northeast China, and what happened afterward, he had no doubt about Li Kaixin's abilities.

But he quickly frowned again, changing the subject: "But Kaixin, with their health, I'm afraid they can't eat meat!"

"Who said they were given food?"

Li Kaixin looked around at everyone and said with a smile, "Our transport team isn't short of food, so what's wrong with them eating? We'll eat the meat, and we'll give them the saved grain, isn't that enough?"

He paused, then added, "If anyone really can't adapt, they can eat only grains."

After listening, Captain Wang raised a new concern: "Kaixin, if you don't rest at night, who will drive you in the morning?"

"Since we're driving slowly anyway, let my apprentice do it!"

Li Kaixin already had a plan in mind: "I can just put their bundles and food in this cart, that should be fine!"

Upon hearing this, the masters thought that this method was worth trying. If Li Kaixin failed to catch any prey, they could always think of other ways.

"Old Wang, there's no other way right now, I think we can try the Kaixin method." Master Guo nodded first.

The other craftsmen also nodded in agreement.

Seeing that everyone was saying the same thing, Captain Wang could only nod helplessly.

After everyone made their decision, they got back into the vehicles, and the convoy began to move forward slowly again.

Zhou Zhiming, in the passenger seat, turned his head and asked in a low voice, "Driver, what happened up ahead?"

The driver just told him to stay on the bus and watch over the people in the carriage, so I didn't get off.

Li Kaixin gestured behind him and whispered, "Zhiming, this isn't the time to talk. I'll talk to you later."

"Oh, okay!" Zhou Zhiming glanced at the carriage and didn't ask any further questions.

Several more fainted in the time that followed.

Li Kaixin had to rush over every time to repeat the previous actions.

Captain Wang and his team got out of the car repeatedly, and they were already exhausted after driving only a short distance.

When the fourth person fainted, Li Kaixin finally couldn't take it anymore.

He got out of the car and pretended to rummage through his bag, then pulled out five pounds of White Rabbit milk candy from his secret space.

Anyway, there are still about 30 kilograms left in the space, so we won't be short of a little more.

When they arrived at the car where the unconscious person was, Captain Wang and his colleagues had already arrived, but their faces were all etched with exhaustion.

Li Kaixin first handed the bundle of candy to Captain Wang, then got straight into the car.

When Kaixin got off the bus after recovering, Captain Wang approached her with the bag of candy, looking puzzled, and asked, "Kaixin, why did you give me this candy?"

"Captain Wang, please give some of these milk candies to each vehicle. It will effectively prevent them from fainting from weakness again," Li Kaixin explained.

He only just realized it; otherwise, he wouldn't have wasted all those efforts.

Captain Wang looked at the bag of candy in his hand, feeling a little guilty: "Isn't this going too far?"

"Captain Wang, you like running around like this, but my body can't take it."

As Li Kaixin spoke, he didn't give Captain Wang a chance to speak again and turned to walk towards his car.
