For instance, the firewood was running low.
They had been burning it all night long, and the wood gathered in the rain yesterday had basically run out.
Even though it wasn't necessary during the daytime, they still needed to prepare.
Besides, the village chief's injuries were so severe, hot water might be required at any moment.
Lu Jing and an elder villager set out once again to gather wood, while Dr. Yu stayed behind to tend to the injured village chief.
Under the dense forest canopy, Lu Jing could always hear airplanes flying overhead.
But frustratingly, it seemed like those planes hadn't noticed the distress smoke signal below.
Ah...
How much longer would they have to wait for rescue?
The main problem was that everyone else could wait, but the village chief couldn't.
The delay had been so long, if rescue didn't arrive soon, it really could lead to much larger and more serious problems, and by then... the consequences would be unbearable for anyone!
