Chapter 1555: How Did They Run Into a Wild Boar?

Fu Yan Cheng had been away on a mission for only a few days when a major incident occurred in the family compound.

Xu Genhong, the son of Captain Xu under Fu Yan Cheng, went up the mountain with other children from the compound to gather firewood and ended up being injured by a wild boar.

Liu Chuxue heard the commotion outside; after Auntie Wei came in, she casually asked, "Auntie Wei, what's happening outside? Why do I hear people crying?"

Auntie Wei's face also looked grim; she was still shaken with fear. Normally, her grandson would go up the mountain to gather firewood with the others after school, but today it was because Liu Chuxue wanted to eat tofu.

So she had sent her grandson back to the village to exchange for tofu, which is why he didn't go up the mountain with them.

Now filled with dread, hearing Liu Chuxue's question, she took a deep breath before saying, "The children from the family compound met a wild boar up the mountain. Genhong from Captain Xu's family was injured; I heard it's quite serious. A few others were hurt too, but fortunately, they only have superficial wounds."

Hearing this, Liu Chuxue was also startled: "How did they run into a wild boar?"

Upon hearing this, Auntie Wei grew even angrier: "I heard it was the trouble caused by those comrades from the Art Troupe and the Communications Company."

It turned out someone had borrowed a camera from somewhere, thinking to go up the mountain together to take landscape photos. Instead, a few of them spotted a little rabbit on the mountain, and some girls wanted to catch it alive to raise.

Naturally, the male comrades who went up the mountain with them tried to curry favor. Whether they were lucky or not, the chase led them to discover a lone little wild boar.

Someone suggested catching the little wild boar to roast it.

After all, they were trained soldiers, and they actually managed to catch the little wild boar.

Before they could celebrate for long, they noticed a large wild boar approaching. The group panicked, abandoned the little wild boar, and ran down the mountain at full speed.

Their running further stirred up the wild boar's ferocity. Since they were prepared and were adults, they managed to escape down the mountain, but those children who had gone up to gather firewood met with misfortune.

After hearing this, Liu Chuxue was also furious; after all, if things had gone wrong, the child's entire life could have been ruined: "What is the situation now?"

She had barely asked when she saw Tao Saozi enter the courtyard.

Since she had completed her two-month confinement, Tao Saozi would occasionally come to her home to chat for a while.

Seeing the person enter, Liu Chuxue hurriedly asked, "How is Captain Xu's son doing?"

Tao Saozi's face did not look good: "They just sent him to the hospital. The situation doesn't look good. The wild boar's tusks pierced through his thigh; it's a mess of flesh and blood. I didn't dare to look."

Captain Xu's wife fainted just now. They helped send her to the military hospital along with him."

After taking a deep breath, Tao Saozi finally couldn't hold back: "Those people from the Art Troupe and the Communications Company are truly creating calamity. Isn't this harming people?"

As she spoke, her eyes turned red directly; after all, the wound was truly terrifying, and she feared the child might not be able to save that leg.

She was a mother herself, so naturally, she couldn't bear it.

On the other side, those from the Art Troupe and the Communications Company who had gone up the mountain earlier were gathered together: "What should we do? That child is seriously injured. Will we be held responsible?"

"We didn't do it on purpose. They can't blame us, can they?"

"Shut up. What kind of time is this? You still want to shirk responsibility? No matter what, this incident was caused by us, so taking responsibility is certain. Now we can only hope the child can be cured."

"Then what should we do now? Just wait here idly?"

"This matter is not small. Avoiding it is not the solution. We should report the matter proactively first."

"The outcome isn't decided yet. Maybe we should go to the hospital to check on the situation first."
