Chen Family village is close to the mountain, but that mountain has too many mutated beasts. Ordinary people without firepower are extremely weak in front of those mutated beasts. Today they organized a group of twelve men to brave the mountain, but unfortunately they ran into mutated monkeys. Five of the twelve died, and two were seriously injured, crippling the small population of this village.
The dangers of these mutated beasts to the hunters is very clear. They had encountered these terrifyingly powerful mutated beasts when hunting once in the past. If it wasn’t for having no other choice, the Chen Family Villagers wouldn’t think to go hunting in the mountains.
It would be a problem for the Chen Family Village’s food supply to last for another week. Chen Ning’s food supply could last another two weeks for his family if they conservatively ate even less. Chen Ning already didn’t have any options and thought to rely on Yue Zhong. They are cornered in reality.
The villagers wouldn’t look upon the food Yue Zhong had with green eyes if the village had food, and they wouldn’t fight over each other to be Yue Zhong’s guide.
Yue Zhong duly said; “If you can bring the whole village into my group, and organize a small fighting unit, I will make you and your two sons preliminary team members. If you achieve merits in battle, you can promote into an official team member. Your wives and children can enjoy outside member benefits. I can guarantee none of the villagers will starve to death. If they want to achieve any kind of treatment, then their performance will need to be looked at.”
The fact that Yue Zhong wasn’t too fervent, and he didn’t promise Chen Ning an extremely high position made Chen Ning even more relaxed. Chen Ning would be suspicious if Yue Zhong promised him an extremely high position.
A young fellow rushed into the courtyard at this time. He said to Chen Ning with a face of sorrow: “Uncle! Uncle quick come look. Uncle Shitou cannot stand up. Do you have medicine?”
Chen Ning isn’t only the Mayor, he also knows a little bit about ancient medicine, so he is also the village doctor.
Chen Ning apologized to Yue Zhong seeing the youngster rush in: “Sorry, I need to go take a look.”
“I will go with you.”
Yue Zhong followed Chen Ning out.
Inside a crude brick house, a middle-aged man was lying in the bed. He was struggling in endless pain. On his stomach there was a long gash, and blood continuously flowed out of the enormous wound.
A good looking young woman was whispering in a low voice and using a towel to wipe the sweat of the man. A beautiful young fourteen or fifteen year old girl stood to the side at a loss, looking at her father on the bed.
The man on the bed used his broad shoulders and powerful hands to be the best hunter in the village. He used his hands and shoulders to protect his wife and daughter. He let them be much better off than the others in the village. If the man on the bed died, his wife and daughter truly didn’t know how they would be able to continue living in the cruel Z-Age.
The beautiful young girl looked at Yue Zhong and Chen Ning walk into the room. She kneeled before Chen Ning, begging with huge tears in her eyes: “Uncle! I beg you. I’m begging you save Shitou! I’m begging you!! I will do anything if only you save him!”
