Chapter Eighty-Seven: Anna's Request
Ait tried to withdraw his fist, but he was crushed by a thousand pounds of boulders and couldn't move.
"Is it okay to beat him? Doctor. Liu Zheng looked at Gertrude.
"Yes. I'll bear the consequences. Gertrude said coldly.
"Okay." As soon as the words fell, Liu Zheng's right leg went up like a big axe.
Ait rose into the air, smashed into the wall like a cannonball, and slowly slid down.
Punching is like a spring, and beating people is like hanging a painting.
Liu Zheng's leg is not much better than that pirate leader, but he is now relying on the talent of "martial arts wizard" to flash his mind, and he can't even know it.
Martial arts comprehension is very important, and inheritance is also very important.
Although he learned the stick technique for a short time, he also got the true inheritance of Yu Dayou, and it was not worse than the sword technique that the wolf heart had learned for twenty years.
But the boxing skills, body techniques, and pile skills are far behind, which is also a big part of his shortcomings.
"It hurts, it hurts", although the wound on his back hurts faintly, in order to maintain his master's demeanor, Liu Zheng still pretends to be light and light, and can only scream in his heart.
"He's not seriously injured, but I'm not going to keep my hand next time." Liu Zheng said in a deep voice.
Several doctors were already a little hesitant, but when they heard his words, they hurriedly helped Ait away.
"Thank you, Mr. Wallace." Anna preemptively said.
"I used to call me Wallace, and the doctor who helped him was Mr. Wallace. Oh, Anna, you're too realistic. Liu Zheng pretended to exaggerate.
"Alright, Mr. Wallace, I'll give you an extra bowl today." Anna has also gotten acquainted with him these days, and she speaks more casually.
"Thank you, I'll refund you your consultation fee." Gertrude held back for a long time and said.
"Haha, no need, don't think I'm eating too much." Liu Zheng said with a smile.
The doctor is making trouble and adding a cheap mouth, and the lack of beating is added to the third level, which is just a matter of raising his hands.
After all, he still exerted his strength, and Liu Zheng's stitches had a faint tendency to loosen, so Gertrude didn't say much to greet, but asked Anna to quickly help him back to the hospital bed and lie down.
Speaking of sutures, as early as the fourth century BC, the ancient Egyptians used cotton fibers and horse palm to suture wounds.
In the ancient history books of China, there are also records of flax, hair, pig brown, grass fiber, etc. used for stitching.
In the real world, it was not until 1860 that British doctors began to use sterilized sheep intestines to start modern sutures, which was also the earliest absorbable suture.
It is characterized by being relatively hard, requiring soaking in a protective solution, and low tension.
Most of Liu Zheng's wounds are relatively small, so they are all sutured with sheep intestines.
As for the big hole on the back, there is no way, it can only be sutured with cotton fibers, and it will leave a big scar.
Gertrude had explained this to him, but he didn't really care.
The "Secret Keeper" should be able to recover, and if not, it doesn't matter.
There is a brown-haired guy who is forever burning the small universe once said that scars are a man's medal.
Wait, it seems that there is still a green-headed swordsman who said that "the scar on the back is the shame of the swordsman"?
Forget it, it doesn't matter.
After resting for a few more days, Raphaelto sent a message saying that he was raising money and asked him to wait in Ceuta, so Liu Zheng simply continued to recuperate in the clinic.
The body recovery power of the dragon blood bloodline is not covered, and Gertrude's suturing technique is also very good, and by the tenth day, Liu Zheng has fully recovered.
"Mr. Wallace, may I ask you a favor?" Anna waited for him to finish a set of punches and said cautiously.
"You're my breeder, whatever you want." Liu Zheng made a joke.
The novelty of the speech made Anna find it amusing, and her big blue eyes were crooked, like the water of a lake wrinkled by the wind.
"You've always been so interesting, Mr. Wallace. I'd like to ask you to accompany me home. Anna said.
"Okay." I didn't ask where I was, or why I had to accompany him when I got home.
Everyone has their own unspeakable secrets, and if you don't want to say it, don't ask.
However, there is a problem that Liu Zheng only has a set of clothes similar to a hospital gown, and it is obviously impossible to go out in this outfit.
So Liu Zheng asked Gertrude to borrow his smallest clothes, although they still looked a little funny.
There is no way, after all, he is only 1.75 meters, and Gertrude is at least 1.87 meters.
Anna's home is in the north of the city, the equivalent of the slum of Ceuta.
The roads are potholed, the ground is littered with garbage and sewage, and the houses on either side are old.
Liu, who doesn't fit well but uses exquisite materials, is walking on the road, like an outlier who has broken into other ethnic groups, attracting the frequent attention of passers-by.
However, they were quite familiar with Anna, and from time to time someone would greet them, and there would be no blind thieves or anything like that.
Anna will respond, too, but only stylized.
Seeing that Liu Zheng was a little strange, she whispered, "Before I became Dr. Gertrude's assistant, they weren't so enthusiastic. ”
Liu Zheng is clear, but he is not prejudiced about it.
Born as an orphan, he has long known that indifference is the norm, and enthusiasm must be vigilant.
But the more this is the case, the more those sincere passions must be cherished.
Follow Anna all the way through the streets and alleys, and finally reach the door of her house.
It was not so much a door as two vertical planks, crumbling as if they would fall apart with a slight push.
Anna didn't go in right away, and stood at the door for a few moments before pushing it open.
In the courtyard lay a man with a disheveled beard, his clothes shabby and fresh bruises on his face.
"Father." Anna shouted under her breath.
"It's Anna, you're just in time, quick, give me some more money." When the man saw Anna, there was a sudden light in the godless eyes, and he immediately sat up.
Anna looked at him with a complicated expression, took out 10 silver coins from her pocket and placed them in front of him.
"This is the last time I'll give you money, father. I won't come back in the future. Anna's voice trembled slightly.
The man was excitedly putting the money in his pocket, and when he heard Anna's words, he instantly became angry, "What did you say? You unfilial daughter. Who raised you, and who sent you to literacy? ”
"It's my mother, my father. And she died of exhaustion two years ago in order to pay off your debts. Anna's voice was filled with anger and hatred.
"That's because she doesn't fight herself. I don't care, this time next week, I'm going to have 10 more credits. "Men just want money.
"No, Father, no more. I have paid off the price you gave birth to me. Anna said firmly.
When the man saw that his daughter dared to talk to him like this, he stood up and was about to slap Anna.
Just as his hand was waving, an extreme fear came out of his heart, and his legs began to tremble.
"You... Who are you? He finally noticed Liu Zheng, who had not moved.
The battle of the soul battlefield allowed Liu Zheng to further grasp his momentum, and the murderous aura overflowed, but it was only aimed at the man, making him almost breathless.
"I'm a friend of Anna." Liu Zheng said lightly.
He didn't have the slightest affection for such gamblers, and many of the orphans in the orphanage were rescued by the gamblers' parents after selling them to human traffickers.
"You... This is our family affair, and we don't need you to interfere. The man said strongly.
"Do you know how many people I've killed?" Liu was walking slowly towards him.
The man didn't answer, his teeth chattering, and he couldn't speak.
"More than the whole city of Ceuta." Liu Zheng walked up to him and looked at him condescendingly.
An invisible murderous aura enveloped the gambler, and his heart seemed to be pinched by a hand.
After all, it was his father, and seeing that he was as frightened as a ghost, Anna pulled the corner of Liu Zheng's clothes and looked at him pleadingly.
"Don't come to Anna again, or no one will be able to save you, I said."
Liu Zheng retracted his murderous aura, dropped the warning, and led Anna out the door, leaving behind the paralyzed gambler.
"Do you want to watch it for a while?" Liu Zheng asked gently.
Anna glanced nostalgically at the home where she had grown up, shook her head, and strode away.
"Thank you, Mr. Wallace." Walking on the road, Anna said suddenly.
"You're welcome, just put two more pieces of stew." Liu Zheng is trying to liven up the atmosphere.
"Have you really killed a lot of people?" Anna asked.
Liu Zheng stopped his pace, looked at Anna's lake-like eyes, thought for a while, and said, "I can only say that I have not killed innocent people. ”
"Well, I believe you, Mr. Wallace." Anna nodded, her eyes as innocent as a fawn.
After all, she is still a child, Liu Zheng looked at her still a little immature face and thought, raised his hand and touched her head.
"Don't touch a girl's head casually, it's very ungentlemanly." Anna shook her head unhappily.
"Can Dr. Gertrude touch it?" Liu was teasing her.
"Doctor, of course... Hmph, I won't tell you, bad guy. Anna lost her temper and walked towards the clinic with broad steps.
Liu Zheng smiled and followed her, like a dwarf guarding Snow White.
