Chapter 105 Xu Zhiyang's Broken Arm
The sky was getting light, and when the wooden door was lowered, Qin Shiyu and the others rushed out. Fu Qingbai's heart almost stopped when he saw the person covered in blood in Zhu Ci's arms.
Fortunately, he and Xiao Yangyang had a connection, so Yangyang must have just been tired...
Fu Qingbai walked over with his usual nervous smile on his face and was about to say a few words of angry congratulations, but when he saw Xu Zhiyang's obviously empty sleeves, he suddenly froze in place.
Qin Shiyu and Lu Nian also ran over.
Fu Qingbai stood there in a daze for more than ten seconds, then he rushed over and grabbed Zhu Ci's collar, shouting, "Where's his hand? What happened to his hand?"
"Get out of the way and don't touch his wound."
Zhu Ci didn't have the heart to argue with him. All he could think about was Xu Zhiyang's screams, which she couldn't suppress even with clenched teeth, and then she fainted from the pain.
This feeling is so painful. Seeing your loved one in so much pain is like a knife cutting the flesh of his heart.
Li Huiyin just woke up and sat alone against the wall with her head buried in her arms, not moving at all, occasionally letting out a few sobs.
After working hard all night, everyone was very sleepy and everyone had been wet in the rain all night.
Lu Nian also had a fever, and his eyes were red as he kept looking at Xu Zhiyang. He wanted to go see him, but was afraid of Zhu Ci's cold and distant look.
"Don't worry, it'll be fine."
Mu Ke gently pinched the back of Lu Nian's neck and said, "Zhiyang's arm will grow back on its own in a few days. Don't be afraid... Are you having a fever?"
Feeling that the boy's body temperature was not right, Mu Ke held Lu Nian's face with one hand and lowered his head to feel his temperature with his forehead.
The distance suddenly shortened, and Lu Nian widened his eyes stupidly, even his breathing stopped nervously.
"You have a fever." Mu Ke stepped back and whispered, "Change back into a little fox. That way, Zhi Yang will be able to treat you faster when she wakes up."
Lu Nian nodded blankly, confused by the fever. He listened to Mu Ke and obediently turned back into a little wide-eared fox. Then he was picked up by Mu Ke and held in his arms to warm him with his body temperature.
Qin Shiyu looked at his brothers and sisters who were in low spirits, sniffed and said, "Brothers and sisters, go back and rest. You will catch a cold outside."
As he spoke, Qin Shiyu blocked Fu Qingbai's sight and squatted in front of Zhu Ci. "Brother, Brother Xu likes to be clean. Please help him change his clothes. It's cold outside. If he gets colder, he will definitely feel worse."
Qin Shiyu's words, which appealed to both emotion and reason, persuaded Zhu Ci.
Zhu Ci picked up the person and covered Xu Zhiyang with his coat to hide the broken arm.
The seven of them walked back silently. Mu Ke put Lu Nian on his bed and put a cold towel on the fox's head. Then he turned around and went out to boil some water in a big pot for them to take a bath.
Xu Zhiyang fainted from the pain and didn't wake up even when Zhu Ci was helping him take a bath.
After changing into soft and clean clothes, Zhu Ci gently put the person on the bed and quickly took a shower.
Everyone was very sleepy. They hadn't rested all night. Everyone inside and outside the door was busy resisting the zombie attacks. Even Qin Shiyu was very tired.
Momo slept from morning till the next morning. He was so bored that he chewed his own paws for fun. Only after his owners had rested enough did they get up one after another.
Xu Zhiyang was the first to wake up. When he got up, he did not wake up Zhu Ci. He wanted to sneak out of his arms. When he supported his body with his hands, he remembered that one of his hands had been chopped off.
"Are you hungry, Momo baby?"
Xu Zhiyang used his intact right hand to touch its nose.
Momo suddenly dodged, moved forward, and gently touched Xu Zhiyang's left arm with the tip of his nose. His eyes were full of confusion, as if asking him if it hurt.
"It doesn't hurt anymore. It will grow out in a few days. Thank you for your concern."
Momo whimpered softly, lying down obediently beside Xu Zhiyang, and even stretched out a paw for him to sit on. Whenever Li Huiyin was tired, she would lie on its paw.
"Good boy..." Xu Zhiyang stood on tiptoe and scratched Momo's chin. When she heard footsteps behind her, she turned around to look.
It was Mu Ke, walking towards them quickly with a serious expression on his face. "Zhi Yang, please help me check what's wrong with Lu Nian. He has a persistent fever."
"What's going on?" Xu Zhiyang said as he hurriedly followed Mu Ke into the house.
The corners of the quilt on the bed formed a circle, and the broad-eared fox was curled up in it with its head drooping. The little fox's mouth was slightly open, and its soft and bulging belly rose and fell rapidly.
Mu Ke: "I got caught in the rain the night before last and got a fever, and it hasn't gone away yet."
"Don't worry, it'll be okay."
Xu Zhiyang half-knelt beside the bed and leaned over to listen carefully to the fox cub's breathing.
"His breathing was rapid, and there was a little snot on the tip of his nose. He was probably cold. He was too small in his beast form and very fragile."
As he spoke, Xu Zhiyang placed his hand on Lu Nian's back.
The sleeping fox cub smelled the scent of the mountains and fields, its small nose moved, it squinted its eyes and called out in a baby voice, then the whole fox crawled into the palm of the boy's hand.
Xu Zhiyang was so cute that she was melted by it. She smiled and rubbed the fox cub, and the energy in her palm was continuously transported into Lu Nian's body.
As its body gradually warmed up, the broad-eared fox stretched out its limbs lazily, stretched itself lazily under Xu Zhiyang's palm, and opened its sleepy eyes.
"Are you feeling better?"
Xu Zhiyang withdrew his hand, trying to ignore the slightly cold look from a brother beside him, which was a little sour...
Lu Nian returned to her human form and smiled shyly at him: "I feel much better, no...not uncomfortable anymore."
"That's fine." Xu Zhiyang stood up, and his left hand, which had been resting on his leg, was exposed.
When Lu Nian saw the empty sleeve, her eyes suddenly turned red. "Are you...are you hurt?"
"ah?"
Xu Zhiyang followed his gaze and realized that he was talking about his arm. Of course it still hurt. Without anesthetic, the wound hurt all the time.
Afraid that Lu Nian would worry, Xu Zhiyang deliberately shook his raised left arm.
He laughed and said, "It doesn't hurt. Look at my arms, they are very flexible and can be swung. Don't worry, they will grow out in four or five days at most."
After saying that, Xu Zhiyang heard his friends coming out one after another outside, so he said, "Let's go and discuss the next journey. We will continue our journey today."
When the three of them came out of the yard, they found that there was some noise outside. It was Brother Cui who had taken a gun from them that day.
Not only that, what surprised Xu Zhiyang was that he also saw an old acquaintance.
"I felt like you looked familiar last night, but it was too dark to see clearly. I didn't expect it was really you."
The man in camouflage uniform smiled when he saw Xu Zhiyang. "Do you remember me? Captain Li from Jincheng Expressway."
Xu Zhiyang remembered that there was such a person and asked in surprise, "Captain Li, why are you here?"
Speaking of this, Captain Li sighed deeply and his shoulders slumped.
"The mutated pythons and zombies attacked from both sides. The team was surrounded by pythons and zombies before they could get far. In the end, only two other teammates and I were left with so many people."
"The others are all gone..."
Brother Cui patted Captain Li on the shoulder and comforted him, "Let's not talk about this..."
Brother Cui laughed and said, "When he first arrived, several powerful psychics in the base all died outside, leaving no one to manage the place. If Captain Li hadn't been here to keep things under control, the restless ones in the base would have caused trouble long ago."
