Chapter 12 A game within a game, a mystery within a mystery
The concussion of the boat against the shore made me wake up again when I was about to fall asleep.
At this moment, I heard Uncle Zheng's breathing a sigh of relief, followed by some noisy human voices, should there be 5 or 6 people?
Monsoon they lifted me out of the cabin, and then, in a blur, I felt like I was being put on a stretcher, and then, I didn't know anything.
It was a long sleep, and there were many times when I wanted to wake up, but I didn't have the strength at all, so I had to fall asleep again.
Actually, because of the power of my spiritual sense, I am a dreamer and dream almost every time I fall asleep, but this time I have no dreams at all, which is very rare.
I eventually woke up from a sharp pain in my body, which was a little more severe than when I was shot before.
"Are you awake?" When I opened my eyes, I saw the face of a woman wearing a mask, her eyes were large, and her whole temperament could be seen, there was an intellectual beauty, but there was also exhaustion in her eyes, and it was she who was talking to me.
I didn't answer, I didn't have the strength to answer, I could only roll my eyes and look around!
The lights on the roof were shining brightly, as if some special lamp had been hung up temporarily, but the room had an old smell, and it looked like a country house.
The whole room smelled of disinfectant water, and I was lying on a boat, covered with a white cloth, and the area from the neck down.
There was another pain in my body, and I felt that there was a needle passing through the skin of my wound, and I couldn't help but 'hiss', and the woman's voice came again: "Temporary order, preparation is also in a hurry, the conditions are limited, the anesthetic is not prepared enough, no, I should not expect you to wake up so quickly." β
What is she talking about? I was confused, and then I reacted, feeling that she was operating on me? I didn't go back to Lake Village? And what about my companions? I
Thinking of this, I was very anxious, but I couldn't move, and this woman, who should be a doctor, hurried up a few stitches when talking to me, and the pain made me sweat coldly.
"Talking can be a distraction, and you can try to talk to me. Speaking of which, you real Taoist monks, your physical fitness is simply beyond the imagination of ordinary people, these few gunshot wounds, although they avoid the fatal place, but ordinary people have to hold on for so long, and they have been blistered halfway, and it is a miracle that they can still survive, you are good, you don't even need a blood transfusion to survive. However, you have to make up for it when you go back. "While talking, where is she still waiting for me to speak, it is like a flying needle and a thread, so that I don't even have the strength to moan in pain.
There was a 'clang', it was the sound of tweezers throwing out of the plate, and a nurse came to wipe the sweat for the woman, and by the way, I wiped the sweat, and then hung the hanging bottle for me, in the process, the woman seemed to be very tired, ripped off the mask, sat aside, and watched quietly.
Waiting for the nurse to finish all this, she said to me: "The bullets have been taken out, you are no longer in serious trouble, because every bullet has avoided the vital point, you have to thank the person who fired the shot for such an accurate technique, and has a deep understanding of the human body, 5 shots, there is no such coincidence, if it is not for the accurate technique, you will always have to leave a little disability and sequelae." β
Does that mean I should thank Jiang Yi? I looked at the woman, and although I was speaking very hard, I still used all my strength to ask hoarsely: "You, who are Jiang Yi?" β
"I'm not Jiang Yi's person, he is the boss of the department at the top, and I am just a small doctor who belongs to the special department, and occasionally treats injuries for special people. I had an overnight operation yesterday, and I didn't sleep long during the day, so I was called to the countryside to treat your injuries. The woman took a sip of water as she spoke, and then said, "However, your case is a very good gunshot wound, not those strange injuries, and you have to use special methods, so it is not too difficult for me." β
After saying this, she put down the cup, walked away from the nurse, and then walked up to me, her expression suddenly became very serious, and she whispered to me, "In a month, you'd better try your best to heal your injuries." You won't be so easy in the future, at least you can't use Chen Chengyi's identity to act openly, then there will be endless trouble. β
What do you mean? My eyes widened and I tried to ask why?
But the woman seemed to be very tired, yawned, and said, "Including sending me to rescue you, it is also the last help of the department to you, and you are taking a great risk." You've just had surgery, so it's not too important to get too excited, and someone asked me to tell you that your companions are still alive and safe, so you should have a good rest. β
Hearing this, my heart began to beat violently, and I tried to call out to her, but she didn't give me any chance to speak, and turned away.
I was left with a mess in my head.
ββββββββββββββ Dividing Lineββββββββββββββ
After a week, I was barely able to get out of bed and move, and I knew where I was!
It is indeed in a remote country, not far from Lake Village to be exact.
Because of poverty, almost all of the people here have gone out to work, and the rest are all old and weak, women and children, and half of the houses in the village are empty.
I was in a vacant house, and the owner had rented it to a foreigner who had come to investigate the geography of the place a month earlier, but I knew too well that this was the department's method, and it felt as if a month ago he had been going to leave me a way out.
The folk customs of this place are relatively simple compared to the outside world, and there is no feeling of poor mountains and bad waters, and the news is closed, people know too much and limited, I am relatively safe here, of course, it is safe within a month, except for some loneliness.
The one who took care of me was a young man from Lake Village, Uncle Zheng and Granny Yun, who would also come to see me occasionally, and as for the female doctor, the next day I recovered a little more mentally and explained some things to me, and then left.
The young man who took care of me didn't like to talk, which caused me to be a little lonely, and this loneliness was caused by something in my heart and nowhere to tell.
I haven't gotten out of bed for a week, so when I got out of bed, I felt a little weak when I walked slowly outside for half an hour.
But I didn't want to go back to bed, but stood in this small courtyard in the country, worried about my current situation and that of my companions.
"Brother Chengyi, why don't you go back and lie down? It's already autumn, it's cold outside, and if you catch a cold, it's not good for your recovery. "That young man had been silent when I was active before, and when he saw me standing in the courtyard in a daze, he finally couldn't help but say something.
"It's okay, I'll stay outside for a while, it's good to get some fresh air, you can help me move a chair here, I'll sit for a while." I said to him with a smile.
The young man hesitated, but did as I was told, moved me a chair, and did not forget to bring me a dress for me to wear.
I sat down, then the young man went in and prepared to boil medicine for me, I don't know if Uncle Zheng thought of any way, or took out the things at the bottom of the box, in short, he came to see me several times, and brought a lot of medicinal materials that are already precious to the world, and told the young man to get me to replenish my body according to a strict dose.
And I stopped the young man: "Hey, is there any smoke?" If you don't have one, I have one in my duffel bag, can you open one for me? "My luggage was the one I was shot at, and the monsoon brought it all for me, and it was on the ship, and all my precious magic weapons were there.
"Smoking? Isn't this okay? The lad was a little hesitant.
"It's okay, you can bring it, I was so panicked that I wanted to smoke one." As I said, the young man was helpless and finally brought me a cigarette.
As soon as I took the familiar smell of smoke, my mood finally calmed down a little, and I was finally able to calm down and think about what happened after these 7 days.
I don't understand Jiang Yi's specific purpose for doing this, but judging from what I know now, he should be helping me! But why do you want to help?
I can't think of the reason here, so I can only analyze the situation of my companions first, according to the news that Uncle Zheng gave me, that night, less than ten minutes after I left in the Jiang area, our partners, including Lu Shan, left in a hurry, still carrying Tao Bai in a coma.
When leaving, there was a detail, that is, Lu Shan asked Granny Yun to borrow transportation, which made me wonder, after all, we were driving to Lake Village, why did Lu Shan ask Granny Yun to borrow transportation?
Spitting out the smoke, I analyzed it, and I can probably analyze a reason, there are no cars in Lake Village, if you want to talk about transportation, there is only one most, that is, boats? In addition to the special boats that enter and exit the natural array, there are many ordinary boats in Lake Village.
If this is the case, Lu Shan's purpose is also clear, they have already decided to take the waterway, so they will ask Granny Yun to borrow transportation and take the waterway, then someone must have pointed them out.
The point is that 40 minutes after they left in Lushan, at that time, Jiang Yi and I should not have arrived in the natural array, a group of people came to Hucun, the identity of this group of people is unknown, but the guards left by Jiang Yi are very respectful to them, from the words of Granny Yun who was present at the time, I can know that that group of people are all cultivators, and their skills are very high, so high that Granny Yun can't see the specifics.
Thinking of this, I broke out in a cold sweat, if Lu Shan and they delayed some time, what would be the consequences? Is it even more terrible than what happened to me?
The cigarette burned out, but I fell into a mystery within a mystery, and I couldn't think of any clue at all, not to mention, there were more difficult things waiting for me, that is, I couldn't be Chen Chengyi now, and my identity had become an embarrassment.
