Seeing this, Zhou Ying no longer cared about the stick. Instead, she raised her hand and quickly sprayed the pepper spray at it.
This time, not only did the leopard choke and scurry to the snow pile not far away, even Zhou Ying was choking and sneezing non-stop.
When Sister Tian saw this, she immediately stood up and ran over to support Zhou Ying. “Zhou Ying, are you okay?”
“I’m fine.” When Zhou Ying opened her mouth, she sneezed and handed her the pepper spray.
After that, she sneezed a few more times and finally recovered.
The leopard’s reaction was much stronger than hers. It choked and rolled around in the snow but did not intend to leave.
At that moment, the villagers heard the commotion and rushed over. Seeing the leopard rolling in the snow, someone asked, “This must be a leopard, right? Why is it in the village?”
“It’s probably hungry. Look at how thin it has become.”
“This is bad. We have to kill it. Otherwise, we won’t know when it will kill one of us.” A clan elder walked out at that precise moment to warn.
Everyone ran to Zhou Ying’s and Tian family’s houses to find weapons.
Zhou Ying also immediately went home and then took out a crossbow, aiming at the leopard that had begun to escape.
The arrow shot out and hit the leopard’s leg, causing the running leopard to fall down instantly.
“Go! It’ll be troublesome if it gets into the village,” the elder immediately urged.
As soon as he finished speaking, a few older men immediately rushed forward with rods in their hands. They swung their farming tools at the leopard.
Because the leopard’s leg was injured and it was starving too, it struggled a few times before the surrounding villagers killed it.
Zhou Ying stepped forward and collected the arrows from the leopard’s body. “It seems that the animals on this mountain have run out of options. We’ll have to send people to patrol in the future.”
“Indeed, it seems like we really have to be careful in the future.” The clan elder nodded in agreement.
He then saw that the clothes of the villagers around him were more or less scratched and torn. He raised his hand and coughed dryly. “This leopard isn’t that big; you guys can split it.”
Zhou Ying shook her head immediately, as cat meat was sour and she didn’t like to eat it. She walked directly to Sister Tian’s side and said, “Sister Tian, come with me. I’ll treat your wounds.”
“Sigh, it’s all thanks to you today. I’m afraid 1 would have lost my life if it weren’t for you.” Sister Tian nodded and followed her home.
When Zhou Ying had almost cleaned up the wounds on her arm, Gu Chengrui rushed back. Zhou Ying immediately stood up and said, “Rui, you should bandage it. I’m going to cook.”
“Sure, remember to make me a cup of ginger soup. I’m freezing.” Gu Chengrui requested, and he rubbed his hands hard before treating Sister Tian’s wounds.
Gu Chengrui looked at the wound and asked, “Sister Tian, was this bitten by a cat?”
“Uncle Gu mentioned it was a leopard.” After Sister Tian finished speaking, she briefly repeated what had happened to him.
Gu Chengrui immediately fell silent and began to treat her wound seriously.
After finishing, he hung her arm around her neck and said, “The wound isn’t serious, but remember not to get it wet or frozen. Remember to come back tomorrow at this time to change your dressing.”
“How much is the medical fee?” Sister Tian asked.
“Just give me ten coppers for the medicine. We’ll charge you as a whole when you are well.” Gu Chengrui said.
“Thank you. Do take your rest, and I’ll be going back.” After saying that, Sister Tian stood up and walked home..
