9: Chapter 9 Surprise Change 9: Chapter 9 Surprise Change Sitting in the speeding off-road vehicle, Gao Yang’s thoughts were myriad.
The chance to return home had come so suddenly, without notice.
Gao Yang was certainly no stranger to riding in vehicles, but for Kusto, sitting in the fast-moving car was terrifying.
He kept clinging to Gao Yang’s arm, unwilling to let go.
However, after a short while, Kusto’s curiosity overcame his fear.
The photographer named Daniel continuously operated his camera without a break, and it was unclear what kind of footage he could capture in the bumping vehicle.
Gao Yang had too many questions he wanted answers to, and finally, he had the chance to ask.
Yet, just as he was about to speak, the professor preempted him.
“Please allow me to introduce myself, my name is Buck Rodney,” the professor began, “and this beautiful lady beside me is Catherine Taylor.
Forgive my inquisitiveness, but I’m terribly curious, who are you?
Where did you learn English?
If I may be so bold, you don’t seem to be of the same ethnicity as the true indigenous people here.”
“It’s an honour and a fortune to meet you all,” Gao Yang replied.
“My name is Gao Yang, and I am from Huaxia.
I survived a plane crash and was rescued by the Akuri tribe.
I have lived with them for about three years.”
Those who shared the vehicle with Gao Yang were even more curious about him than Kusto was about the car.
Now, their questions were finally answered, and they simultaneously expressed their amazement with a resounding “Oh.”
“My goodness, you are really lucky.
Could you please talk about your experiences?
They must be incredible,” someone requested.
“I would be happy to share my experiences, but I am truly worried about the Chieftain’s condition at the moment.
We’ve lived together for three years; he is now my family.
I can’t discuss other matters right now, I am very sorry.”
“Ah, apologies, my curiosity came at an inappropriate time.
God bless, I hope your Chieftain will be fine.”
After Professor Buck expressed his apologies, he held back his strong curiosity, and everyone rode in silence.
It turned out that the hunting ground Gao Yang frequented wasn’t far from Professor Buck’s campsite, merely a twenty-minute drive away.
Upon slowing the vehicle down, Gao Yang and Kusto promptly recognized they had arrived.
When Gao Yang led the group to the Chieftain, they found him lying motionless on the ground, with Big Bali and Little Bali tearfully sitting beside him, swatting away the flies that swarmed around.
Gao Yang felt a chill in his heart, fearing that the Chieftain might already be dead.
He stood in front of the Chieftain, hesitant to verify his status.
Just then, a doctor carrying a medical kit hurried forward, checked the Chieftain’s neck for a pulse, and loudly declared, “He’s not dead, let me examine him.”
The doctor put on rubber gloves, inspected the wound on the Chieftain’s neck, checked his pupils, and then took out an assortment of instruments to measure the Chieftain’s blood pressure and respiration.
Big Bali and Little Bali stood anxiously with hopeful faces, their concern for their father outweighing everything else.
Soon, good news came from the doctor.
The leopard’s teeth missed the main blood vessels and only punctured two small ones.
But his condition is still quite bad.
He’s lost at least two pints of blood and must receive a transfusion.
I need to check his blood type.
Also, if anyone has O-type blood and is willing to , please let me know.”
Gao Yang did not have O-type blood, and the Chieftain’s blood type was quickly determined to be A-positive.
Gao Yang’s blood type was B, meaning he was unable to blood to the Chieftain.
Meanwhile, no one present shook their heads, indicating that they neither had O-type nor A-positive blood.
Fortunately, Bali and the others were all the chieftain’s children, so their blood type should be the same.
Gao Yang gathered Bali and the rest and told them that the white “wizard” needed their blood to save the chieftain, and they just needed to have a little blood drawn first.
While the doctor was testing Bali and the others for their blood type, Catherine Taylor stood out with a smile and softly said, “I am O-type blood, and I volunteer to give blood, Yves, you can draw my blood first.”
The doctor, with a serious face, said, “Catherine, you must understand, I only have the equipment for person-to-person blood transfusions.
Although I can ensure that the equipment is clean and safe, person-to-person transfusion is very dangerous.
During the transfusion, it is difficult to control the flow of blood.
There have been incidents where people died during transfusion.”
I can’t just stand by at this time.
Before their blood types are identified, you can start with mine.”
Catherine was very young, appearing to be about twenty-three or twenty-four years old, about one meter seventy centimeters tall, with brown short hair, delicate features, and very pretty.
Such a beautiful woman, after showing extraordinary courage and compassion, shone even more brilliantly.
At that moment, in Gao Yang’s eyes, Catherine was the incarnation of an angel.
The doctor connected Catherine and the chieftain’s arms with a soft hose carrying two needles and warned her again and again that she must tell him if she felt dizzy; then he began to clean the chieftain’s wound.
Since cleaning the wound could cause more bleeding, the doctor had to clean the wound while transfusing blood.
Gao Yang was extremely grateful to Catherine, but he did not know what to say.
After hesitating for a moment, he bowed deeply to Catherine and excitedly said, “Miss Catherine, on behalf of the entire Akuri tribe, I thank you for your help.
According to the traditions of the Huaxia people and the Akuri tribe, I will definitely repay you.
At that moment, the blood types of Bali and the others had also been identified.
Without surprise, they all had A+ type blood.
The doctor happily announced that if the four people d blood, the chieftain could be saved, and the donors would also be safe.
After the four donors had taken turns giving blood, the doctor put away the transfusion hose and announced that the transfusion could stop.
If nothing unexpected happened, the chieftain’s life should be saved.
Just as the doctor announced the end of the transfusion, the chieftain also woke up.
At last, the atmosphere relaxed.
After the doctor treated the chieftain’s and Bali’s minor injuries and had them take antibiotics, announcing that everything was over, an ecstatic Gao Yang began hugging and thanking everyone who came.
When an excited Gao Yang finally gave Catherine a big hug and expressed his thanks, he embarrassingly realized he might have hugged her a bit too tightly.
He immediately stepped back two paces with an abashed grin, but fortunately, Catherine was not angry.
Although the chieftain and Bali couldn’t communicate with Professor Buck and the others, they still tried hard to express their gratitude and offered their most sincere blessings.
It was during this time of laughter and joy that the professor’s walkie-talkie suddenly made a sound.
“We’ve been attacked.
We’re under attack at the camp, Professor, get out of here, don’t come back, they’ve killed everyone.”
The sudden voice was accompanied by gunfire, bringing an immediate deadly silence to the jubilant scene.
Professor Buck grabbed the walkie-talkie and was about to press the transmit button when it beeped again.
“God, Charlie’s been shot dead.
They’re catching up with me.
There are so many of them, help, no, don’t come back, this is premeditated, they’ll kill everyone.
For God’s sake, run, get out of this damned country…
The voice from the other side of the walkie-talkie was hurried and chaotic, also mixed with the sound of gunfire, and finally, after a gunshot, the sobbing voice cut off abruptly.
