Fu Xiaoxiao stepped forward, cautiously approaching the animal shed. As soon as she got close, the person inside noticed her.
"Who?"
Suppressed coughs revealed a weak voice.
"I'm entrusted to deliver medicine." Fu Xiaoxiao no longer concealed herself and directly entered the animal shed.
Upon stepping into this shed located at the edge of a remote village, a pungent smell hit her — a mixture of animal feces, the musty odor of damp straw, and the stench of decay from the lack of ventilation, nearly causing her to gag.
The roof was barely constructed from old straw, with slivers of light penetrating through the gaps like countless prying eyes. The wind caused the straw to rustle as if it could be whisked away by a strong gust at any moment.
Fu Xiaoxiao saw the man's "bed", which was merely a thin layer of straw that emitted a strange odor in the corner; mixed within were some cow hairs and bits of dry grass.
