Doctor Wu quickly came to his senses after being reminded by Wu Yong, and said to Su Yue with an apologetic look, "Miss, I'm really sorry, I was so immersed in the research of the detoxification pill that I neglected you.

Don't worry, I will do my best to study this detoxification pill and strive to bring more protection to everyone in the tower as soon as possible."

Su Yue nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Wu Boyan is serious, you just need to concentrate on your research.

I also look forward to your early results, so I won't bother you for now, you can continue with your work." After saying that, Su Yue took Ren Dong and left the treatment room.

After leaving the clinic, Su Yue saw the men in the yard chopping wood, and their families were helping or asking about the situation of the trip.

When these women saw that their men were fine, they began to feel sorry for the thick cotton coats and new cloth shoes they had just made.

"Dad, and Danan, you two shouldn't be careful. This new piece of clothing has gotten so dirty in an instant."

"That's right. The cotton and fabrics the girl gave me are all top quality. You guys are wasting them too much."

"Oh, you just can't wear anything good, take it off quickly, I'll see if I can wash it."

The men chopping wood looked at each other and felt miserable. They knew that these women would nag them endlessly, but they also felt distressed. Wasn't there anything they could do?

However, they knew very well that they could not talk back at this time. If they did, the girl would keep nagging and might even ask the girl to seek justice for them.

Just as Su Yue and Ren Dong were eating melon in silence, Nanny Yang, Liu Cui and Liu Xiaomei came over, each holding a large pot of hot brown sugar ginger tea.

Nanny Yang was relieved to see that Su Yue was not hurt at all. She said with a loving look, "Young lady, you must be very cold. Come quickly. The ginger tea is just ready. I will give you a bowl to drink to relieve your cold."

Su Yue looked at Nanny Yang's concerned look, and a warm feeling surged in her heart. She smiled and walked forward, took the ginger tea handed over by Nanny Yang, took a sip, and a spicy warmth instantly spread from her throat to her whole body.

"Well, it feels comfortable. This ginger tea comes at the right time." Su Yue sighed.

"My stomach is finally warm. Just now I felt like there was ice in my stomach and it was cold." Honeysuckle said comfortably while rubbing his stomach after taking a big sip of ginger tea.

Upon hearing this, Madam Yang said, "Girls cannot stand the cold, so you should drink a few more bowls later."

On the other side, Liu Cui went up to the fifth floor to bring ginger tea to Liu Daxi, while Liu Xiaomei was busy distributing ginger tea to other people. People in the yard drank ginger tea with satisfied expressions on their faces.

On these cold days, a bowl of ginger tea not only warms the body, but also warms the heart.

"Mammy, what's the situation on the other side of the river?" Su Yue asked while sipping ginger tea.

Nanny Yang replied with a relaxed expression, "Don't worry, young lady. The zombies on the other side of the river must have been frozen. Since you left, no zombies have come over here. The ones we found before were also shot dead by Master Liu."

"That's good!" Su Yue breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that, and a bold idea emerged in her mind.

Ren Dong heard the conversation between Su Yue and Madam Yang and couldn't help but interrupt, "Madam, you don't know how dangerous it is for us to go out this time. We encountered about a hundred zombies at the foot of the mountain."

When Madam Yang heard this, her expression changed instantly, and she was so shocked that she almost dropped the spoon in her hand.

"No wonder everyone's clothes are stained with green zombie blood. I should have guessed it earlier. How did you escape from those zombies?"

Honeysuckle explained with a smile: "We didn't run away. We all carried bows and crossbows. We shot most of them to death with the crossbows, but later we found that we didn't have many arrows left.

We can only push down the big rocks from the mountainside to crush the zombies to death or flatten them, and we can take the axe to deal with the rest."

Su Yue was afraid that if she went out alone in the future, Nanny Yang would have to follow her, so she said, "Those zombies are actually just scary-looking and a little bit strong.

The rest of the problems were manageable, mainly because the weather was cold and their movements became very slow, so we were not hurt."

After hearing what Su Yue and Ren Dong said, Nanny Yang said with lingering fear: "You are so reckless. Don't take such risks again in the future. If anything happens, I will die."

Su Yue smiled and said, "Don't worry, Ma'am. We had no choice. But after this, we also know the weakness of zombies in cold weather. If we encounter them again in the future, we will be able to deal with them better."

Honeysuckle also nodded and agreed, "Yes, Mammy, we will be more careful next time. And with this experience, we will definitely do better next time."

Nanny Yang sighed helplessly and said, "You guys just let it go in one ear and out the other. You're always so worrying."

Seeing that Nanny Yang was still nagging, Rendong quickly said to Su Yue, "Miss, I'm going to help chop wood." After saying that, she ran away.

Nanny Yang pointed at the back of Ren Dong running away, neither angry nor amused, and said with a somewhat doting tone: "This girl is just spoiled by the young lady."

Su Yue smiled as she drank ginger tea: "How can I spoil her? This is good."

With the addition of Honeysuckle, the speed of chopping wood increased several times. Honeysuckle was strong and agile, swinging the axe in her hand vigorously, and the wood was quickly chopped into suitable sizes under her hands.

Seeing how hard Jindong worked, the other men were not willing to be outdone and worked harder. Everyone worked together and soon chopped dozens of logs into firewood.

Afterwards, everyone moved the firewood to the blacksmith room to dry. At that time, the temperature in the blacksmith room was still warm enough to dry the firewood because they were making iron doors.

Even Zhong Tie and several of his apprentices were wearing thin clothes and working on the iron.

Zhong Tie didn't take it seriously at first, thinking that everyone was here to deliver firewood to the blacksmith shop, but he saw more and more people delivering firewood.

He stopped what he was doing and told Liu Shan who was just putting away the firewood and preparing to go out.

"Brother Liu, thank you, but you don't need to put so much firewood here. Too much firewood will block the space. If the firewood is not enough, I will ask a few apprentices to go outside to get it."

Liu Shan dusted off his hands and explained with a smile: "Brother Zhong, these firewoods cannot be used yet, we just chopped them down outside.

You know, it has been raining recently and it snowed today, so these trees have been wet to a pulp. If they are not dried, they will be useless.

It's freezing outside now, and there's no sun. You're the only place that can dry the firewood."

Zhong Tie suddenly understood what was going on. "So that's how it is. All right, I'll ask a few of my disciples to clean up this place, and you can all put the firewood in to dry. Wet firewood is really useless and will choke someone to death."
