Chapter 377 -377: Wise Self-Preservation?
An Zhiyuan opened his eyes, and he could feel a surge of strength within his body. As this power flowed, all the wounds in his body were healing! It was as if he had grown a pair of eyes that allowed him to clearly see the injuries inside his body, including those in his brain. He could see the shrapnel being pushed out bit by bit, see the injured blood vessel tissues regrowing and recovering, and then he saw Bai Xiao.
At this moment, no one knew better than he where this power came from, because he could see that after the power had healed his body, it was like completing a combat mission, swiftly returning to Bai Xiao’s body, resting right at Bai Xiao’s heart, seemingly becoming a small speck of light and then remaining motionless.
Bai Xiao could also feel that there seemed to be a change in her body! The special ability within her also began to undergo a qualitative change.
It felt as though a fire was burning inside her, the area around her chest was scorchingly hot, as if a monster was residing there, waiting to erupt at any moment.
What was most peculiar was that she was very aware that healing An Zhiyuan this time required a lot of energy and was exhausting, but paradoxically, she showed no signs of cold-induced hypothermia. In fact, she felt very hot, as if she was about to explode.
All of this was too strange.
An Zhiyuan sat up, “Xiaoxiao, you’ve come!”
Bai Xiao pulled out the silver needles from his body, “Don’t rush to sit up, see if there’s anywhere else that feels uncomfortable.” Seeing him awake, Bai Xiao finally felt at ease.
The team members shouted when they saw their leader awake, “The captain’s awake! The captain’s awake!”
All eyes were focused on them.
The two of them suddenly became the center of attention.
Liu Yun called out anxiously, “Doctor Bai! Come quickly, this patient isn’t breathing!”
Bai Xiao let go of An Zhiyuan’s hand and quickly grabbed her acupuncture kit, running toward Liu Yun.
An Zhiyuan scrambled up; the Karst Cave was filled with moans and noisy chaos, a sight too ghastly to endure.
The breathless one was Li Gaoshan, his intestines had been stuffed back into his abdominal cavity, tightly wrapped with gauze, but already soaked with fresh blood, his face a ghastly pale.
Breathing had indeed gradually stopped, Bai Xiao’s fingers pressed on his pulse, Liu Yun was vigorously performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation, surrounded by a number of injured people.
There was a faint pulse, but it was so weak it was almost imperceptible.
“Everyone step back, give the patient some space, don’t you see he’s gasping for breath!”
Bai Xiao shouted sternly; she needed to save a life, but the crowded and chaotic scene was not conducive.
Not to save would be a betrayal of her conscience. At a time when a person was fighting for his life for his country, if she still hesitated so much, she truly wouldn’t be human.
The inner conflict intertwined, fighting, preserving oneself, or diving headlong into danger?
An Zhiyuan shouted loudly, “Everyone, clear out, move to the neighboring karst cave, immediately, Doctor Liu, please go and attend to the other injured! Leave this place to Doctor Bai and me.” He looked assertively at Liu Yun as he gave the order.
So, the injured people quickly started moving to the nearby cave, which was very fast because the adjacent cave was not far, almost just a dozen steps away.
Liu Yun glanced at Bai Xiao, “Doctor Bai! Can you handle it?”
Bai Xiao nodded, “Go and take care of those injured, leave this to me, I’ll try to perform emergency care, this is a human life, we owe it to him to try!”
