Chapter 36: Wake up
Xiao Ze woke up again and found himself lying in a room filled with the smell of disinfectant water, as white as his eyes were. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Hospital?" Xiao Ze groaned, struggling to sit up and look around, almost sure that this was the hospital.
"Yo, boy, are you awake?" As soon as he got up, he saw Zhang Long pushing the door in, with a smile on his face, "How do you feel?"
"It hurts!" Xiao Ze said as he touched his bandaged abdomen, "You stabbed it so deeply." β
"It's not like you kid said to let me stab, but it really works, otherwise you and I wouldn't be able to talk here now, hahaha. Zhang Long shirked his responsibilities without restraint.
Xiao Ze pouted helplessly and said, "I remember that you weren't like this before!"
"Isn't that unfamiliar, now the two of us have a lifelong friendship!" Zhang Long didn't care about Xiao Ze's ridicule at all, and laughed loudly.
"Li Tie Zhang Man, what about them?" Xiao Ze felt that if he dragged on with this thing again, he couldn't help but go up with a sword, so he got back to the point.
"They are fine, they woke up a few days ago, but they are in a low mood, and the departure of their teammates has hit them hard!" Zhang Long's expression darkened when he heard this, and he looked very sad, after all, those were his students, and they couldn't come back at this time.
Xiao Ze looked at Zhang Long's expression and was silent, he couldn't understand Zhang Long's pain, because he had only stayed in the training camp for a month, and most of the time he was in retreat, and he couldn't talk about how deep his feelings were with them, and some of them were just like ordinary people feeling sorry for the departure of these martial artists.
"Okay, let's not talk about that. Zhang Long pulled out an ugly smile, shook his head and said, "After the annihilation of the corpse blood beast that day, you passed out, and now it has been six full days, and tomorrow the chairman will hold a memorial service at the residence, can you go like this?"
Xiao Ze tried it and found that the injuries in his body were almost healed except for the sword on his stomach, but there was nothing in the dantian, and there was no internal force at all, so he felt a little weak all over his body.
"It's okay, I can go, I'll just recover. Xiao Ze said that he picked up Xiao Wuxianggong and tried to recover some internal strength, but after a week, he didn't see the slightest sign of recovery of the internal force in the dantian, and his heart couldn't help sinking.
Zhang Long seemed to have expected this, patted Xiao Ze's shoulder and sighed: "Although that Jinghong absorbed the energy in your body that day, so that you would not explode and die, she seemed to have absorbed even your original internal force, so you can now be said to be a complete ordinary person." β
Xiao Ze was stunned when he heard this, it turned out to be like this, but when he thought about it, it was indeed the case, it was his own internal force and the energy of the corpse blood beast were transforming into each other, and they were in an entangled state, and it was Xiao Ze's situation that could not be delayed, and it was naturally impossible for Jinghong to have time to distinguish the internal force, so he had to suck it all in one go.
Xiao Ze smiled bitterly, he didn't expect that the first time he used the Northern Spiritual Skill, not only did he not increase his strength, but even his original internal strength was put into it, and he really lost the face of the free faction, I don't know if the master would be angry with himself if he knew.
Zhang Long saw Xiao Ze's wry smile on his face, and couldn't help but comfort: "It's time to practice again when your internal strength is gone, with your qualifications, recovering your strength is just around the corner!"
"And this time you can be regarded as having made a great contribution, first you saw through the identities of Liu Guang and Yefeng's traitors, and then you fought the corpse blood beast and protected the entire Gem Mountain station and even the Suzhou and Hangzhou base cities. Zhang Long added, "The president said that this memorial service will reward you, Li Tie, Zhang Man, Wang Lei and other martial apprentices." β
"Everyone is dead, what's the point of rewarding?" Xiao Ze shook his head and sighed.
Zhang Long was silent, and said with some bitterness: "At least let their families have a little better." β
What Zhang Long said is better, it really exists, this era is very perfect for the compensation measures for the fallen warriors, the families of the fallen warriors can get a lot of pensions, this money is enough to make a family of three live the rest of their lives happily, and if there are martial apprentices in these families in the future, then the martial apprentices will have some privileges, such as some martial arts moves or something.
Thanks to this perfect bereavement measure, the civilian warriors of this era are the most fearless army of death.
Zhang Long explained the details of the memorial service to Xiao Ze and left, after all, as one of the parties and the only one who was not injured, Zhang Long still had a lot of things to deal with.
In fact, Xiao Ze was very skeptical that Zhang Long would also be arrested as a traitor, after all, such a big thing, everyone, even Xiao Lao, was injured, but he, Zhang Long, had nothing to do except for the consumption of some internal strength, and people who didn't know the truth would really feel very weird.
In fact, what Xiao Ze didn't know was that Zhang Long had already been investigated, if Xiao Lao hadn't come forward to clarify, he would probably have to be controlled to observe the situation, Fang Cai just felt that this matter was not a good thing, and he was ashamed to say it.
After Zhang Long left, the ward was quiet again, the breeze blew through the window, the pure white curtains fluttered in the wind, everything seemed very quiet and peaceful, Xiao Ze felt his eyelids become heavier, and fell asleep again.
In the dream, he saw the faces of countless people, all of them were fellow martial artists who only had a few faces, those who were buried in the belly of the corpse blood beast, they waved their palms, and said goodbye to Xiao Ze, or to this world, the smile on their faces couldn't hide their strong reluctance, but no matter how reluctant they were, they couldn't come back!
A tear slipped from the corner of Xiao Ze's eye, seeping into the pillow, and no one saw it.
This dream is the sequelae of Xiao Ze's absorption of the energy of the corpse blood beast with the Northern Spiritual Skill, the corpse blood beast is practiced with the human body as a material, and this year's martial artists were thrown down alive, which is full of feelings of despair and pain, the corpse blood beast is a creature with low intelligence, but it still has some impact on Xiao Ze who has absorbed its power, such as the dream at this time, this kind of dream will not hurt Xiao Ze anything, it is just the remaining obsession of those who were devoured by the corpse blood beast, they are just using Xiao Ze as a medium to say goodbye to this worldοΌ
As for where they will go, Xiao Ze does not know, and everyone does not know, such a thing as the soul has been confirmed to exist in this era, and the Inquisitor feeds on it, but the whereabouts of those souls that have not been devoured by the Inquisitor have always remained mysterious and unknown to the world!
But people still firmly believe that as long as they have fought bravely, they must go to a better world!
