Chapter 59 Xia Li's Broken Arm
Xia Li carried Yu Zichen back and walked back. If Ye Jin came, given the loud noise in the factory just now, Ye Jin would definitely be there.
When Xia Li was about to return to the previous factory, he didn't expect to run into the escaped monster head-on.
Its body was covered with wounds caused by the space blade, and it was almost exhausted.
It stared at the two psychics that happened to be in front of it. The psychics' flesh and blood could replenish the energy it consumed. It greedily bared its huge teeth and opened its bloody mouth towards Xia Li and the others.
When the monster rushed over, Xia Li and Yu Zichen's hearts skipped a beat and they had no time to run.
Just a moment.
"ah!"
Xia Li screamed. He pressed Yu Zichen under him. His arm was bitten by the monster and torn off, and blood spurted all over the ground.
Seeing his arm still being chewed in the monster's mouth, Xia Li's eyes went dark and he fainted.
"Brother Xia Li!" Yu Zichen's tears kept flowing as he cried, "Brother Xia Li, wake up!"
The monster opened its mouth and wanted to swallow the person on the ground, and its teeth almost touched Yu Zichen immediately.
Gu Jingzheng came from behind and was shocked when he saw this scene.
The space wall blocked Yu Zichen.
The monster couldn't bite anyone, so it started to attack violently again, with electricity rolling all over its body.
Gu Jingzheng used the dark element to gather a black ball and smashed it into the head of the electrified monster.
“Ouch! Ouch!”
Unfortunately, he could only consume so much of his dark power in a day. The dark power ball was too small, and only half of the monster's head was corroded. It screamed in pain, and its tail slapped the ground, causing the ground to tremble.
Gu Jingzheng wanted to chop open its head, but unexpectedly the monster used its tail to sweep Yu Zichen and Xia Li, whose powers had been exhausted, away a few meters.
Gu Jingzheng could only run to catch the two people. In a few seconds, the monster had already run back to the bottom of the sea.
When Ye Jin brought Zhang Zhang there, Xia Li's arm was already broken.
Yu Zichen saw Ye Jin, wiped away her tears, and immediately pulled her to Xia Li, choking with sobs, "Sister! Brother Xia Li... hurry, save him."
Ye Jin looked at the broken arm and quickly helped him disinfect and bandage it.
Yu Zichen watched his sister's movements from the side and asked cautiously, "Sister... Can Brother Xia Li's arm be saved?"
Seeing Ye Jin silent, Yu Zichen finally broke down and cried out loud.
"It's all my fault! He was trying to protect me! Why! Aaaaaaaaahh ...!!" He covered his head and cried wailing.
"Xiaochen..." Seeing her brother in pain, she really didn't know how to comfort him. She could only hold him quietly and stroke his head.
Yu Zichen in the back cried until his voice was hoarse, and he curled up in the corner with his head in his hands.
The atmosphere was eerily quiet, and Zhang Zhang looked very sad.
Ye Jin stood up and said, "I'll be out for a while."
Gu Jingzheng knew that they were all upset, so he didn't say much.
After she left, she entered the space and the small house in the space. She carefully looked through every book on the bookshelf, but there was no book that could help her arm regenerate.
Ye Jin let out a long sigh. If it was just an injury, the spiritual spring water could recover it. Even if the arm was still there, she would definitely find the best doctor to reconnect Xia Li. But now... how could it be possible to regenerate the arm!
Although it was wrong for Xia Li to make the decision on his own, he protected Xiaochen this time when he was injured and stood in front. Ye Jin was in a complicated mood now.
When Ye Jin left the space, Xia Li had already woken up.
Gu Jingzheng had already cooked the porridge, and Yu Zichen was helping Xia Li up and feeding him.
Ye Jin walked over and asked softly, "Xia Li, how are you feeling?"
Xia Li didn't answer, nor did he drink the porridge, he just remained silent.
He is now half disabled, with wet tears streaming from his eyes.
Yu Zichen's nose felt sore: "I'm sorry... Brother Xia Li, it's all my fault. I was the one who wanted to come back to find my sister."
He wiped the tears from Xia Li's eyes and said, "Brother Xia Li, don't worry! I will take good care of you. I will definitely protect you in the future!"
Although Yu Zichen was only a fourteen-year-old boy, his eyes were firm and determined, and his thoughts were simple. He only felt that Xia Li protected him when he was in danger, and he would not blame Xia Li for bringing them here.
Xia Li didn't show much expression, but when he looked at Ye Jin, his eyes revealed a complex emotion of guilt, self-blame, and a bit of caution.
He said to Ye Jin in a soft voice: "I'm sorry."
Did he realize he was wrong? He thought his abilities were more advanced than others, so he was eager to show them off. He felt inferior, and his understanding of the end times was still insufficient.
Ye Jin heard it, but didn't respond directly. She just said, "It's getting dark soon, and there are too many mutant creatures here. I'll take you back first." She paused and said, "I will never let that monster go!"
Not to mention that the monster wants to hurt Xiaochen, if it touches her, Ye Jin's people, she will kill it and whip its corpse even if she has to fight to the ends of the earth or dive to the bottom of the sea!
Ye Jin and Gu Jingzheng found a few wooden boards, put them together to make a simple boat, and sent them on board. Before leaving, Ye Jin left a bag of nuclear crystals and a few bottles of spiritual spring water for Yu Zichen.
"Xiaochen, just wait for me on the shore. Once I kill the monster, I'll take you back. Use these nuclear crystals to restore your abilities."
Yu Zichen nodded: "Okay, sister, please be careful."
After Yu Zichen and the others got on the wooden board, Ye Jin watched them until they reached the shore safely.
…
This split refinery is not far from the shore. The monster is injured and will not come out so soon.
"Ajin, do you want to eat something first?"
She hadn't eaten for a whole day and had been fighting for so long, Gu Jingzheng was really worried that she would be exhausted.
Ye Jin shook her head. She was not in the mood. She didn't know why Xia Li was so eager to show off. He always rushed to the front every time he went on a mission. Was it because he felt insecure after being abandoned before?
Seeing Ye Jin's depression, Gu Jingzheng comforted her: "Many things are beyond our control. You have done very well. People always have to go through things. You can't protect them forever."
Seeing Ye Jin silent, he said again: "This is my first time making porridge, are you really not going to eat it?"
Ye Jin took a look at the porridge he cooked and his eyes twitched. It had turned into a paste. No wonder no one had eaten a bite just now.
“I don’t want to eat it!”
The night passed peacefully. She and Gu Jingzheng took turns to rest. Apart from some mutated small fish and shrimps, there was no major movement.
The next day, Ye Jin looked at the calm sea and felt a little annoyed. Did she have to wait for the monster all day until it came out?
She walked up to Gu Jingzheng and said, "I want to go down!"
"Are you sure? How did you get into the sea?"
"If it doesn't come out, we can't keep waiting. Its injuries haven't healed yet, so this is the best time."
Before Gu Jingzheng could speak, she continued, "I can do it. I can go down blindfolded!"
Gu Jingzheng said: "The seabed is its home base, so it must have an advantage over us there."
