Chapter 222: Punishment

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The village chief was a person who prioritized the villagers in everything. Anything that might have endangered the safety of the villagers caught his serious attention.

He knew that if the wolf pack lost its cubs, following the scent, they would find the village sooner or later. When that happened, everyone would be in a panic and no one would dare to go out, making it impossible to have enough food to survive the winter.

The village chief was not stupid. He quickly associated this with the two previous encounters Jiang Chuan’s family had with the wolf pack, as well as the blood-stained clothes. They must have something to do with the Sun family.

They stole wolf cubs and exchanged them for money. Because the wolves lost their cubs, the wolf pack that came out of the deep mountains injured other innocent people. These two people from the Sun family were outrageous, and they had to be punished!

“Village chief, this is a wolf cub!” someone exclaimed. “In these barren mountains, if anything is abundant, it’s wolves! The last time Jiang Chuan went to the mountains, he barely managed to kill a few wolves, but there were more wolves deeper in the mountains. The Sun family actually dared to steal wolf cubs, completely disregarding the lives of the villagers. You must punish them severely!”

“That’s right, Village Chief,” another person chimed in. “Before, Sun Li also stole things and was lazy in his daily life. He discovered a wild vegetable field in the mountain but harvested it completely. We cannot let them get away with stealing this wolf cub this time; they must be punished severely!”

The anger of the villagers had reached its peak. It had reached the point where if they were not severely punished, they would not be able to appease the anger of the people. Of course, the village chief would not be lenient.

He squatted down and picked up the little wolf cub. Everyone quietly waited for his next command.

“Go find Doctor Li first and save this little wolf cub. If the little wolf cub dies in the village, the wolf pack will definitely come to the village for revenge! As for the two people from the Sun family, from today onwards, they will be expelled from the village. They are no longer people of our village! I’ll handle the relevant procedures after I’m done with these things.”

When the Sun couple heard this arrangement, they were so scared that their faces turned pale. They begged for mercy, but the village chief did not want to listen anymore. He did not have time to waste with them. The wolf cub was already on the verge of death and needed to be treated as soon as possible.

The village chief found two strong men and asked them to watch over the Sun family while he brought the wolf cubs and a group of people to Doctor Li’s residence.

Jiang Chuan’s family also followed. On the way, Jiang Xia told Jiang Chuan roughly what had happened that day. “Dad, I’m worried that Doctor Li won’t have the medicine to save the wolf cub. I want to try feeding it with water from the interspace to see if it can be saved. Help me find an opportunity later so I can give the cub water.”

“Alright, wait for my signal!”

Doctor Li, not minding the crowd at his door, hurriedly took the village chief into the house, placing the little wolf cub on the table, and began examining its wounds.

The wolf cub seemed to have been knocked unconscious, with numerous small wounds all over its body. That’s why it had been so quiet in the bag. It only started to struggle when it woke up from the beating.

Doctor Li, having no experience in treating animals, did not know what to do. He could only try to bandage the wounds with hemostatic medicine and hoped that the wolf cub could survive.

Just as everyone was staring at the wolf cub, Jiang Chuan suddenly sat down hard on the ground. Seeing this, Zhou Lan immediately knelt down to support Jiang Chuan’s shoulders, shouting, “Doctor Li, come and see what happened to Jiang Chuan! He fainted all of a sudden!”

With Jiang Chuan causing such a scene, everyone’s attention shifted to him, and no one was watching the little wolf cub.

Of course, Jiang Chuan knew that everyone was concerned about whether the wolf cub could survive. Causing a commotion at this time would definitely attract unwanted attention, but to provide his daughter with a suitable opportunity, he could only pretend to faint to divert attention.

After a careful examination, Doctor Li concluded that Jiang Chuan had fainted because he was too tired and lacked sleep. He just needed to rest well.

Everyone couldn’t help but complain, but they couldn’t say it out loud. They then shifted their attention back to the little wolf cub..
