Chapter 073 Chapter 73 Surprise
The rats are very difficult to deal with before the second mutation.
Fortunately, Tang Ming and his teammates worked well together, and they already knew how to deal with the rats before the second mutation. Although it was a bit troublesome and time-consuming, they still managed it with ease.
Only after the thorns on the front rat were consumed did Tang Ming lead his men to encircle and suppress the front rat.
The members of the Fire Team were all injured to some extent when they were consuming the thorns from the rats. Those with minor injuries could just spray some medicine on themselves, while those with serious injuries were sent to the hospital one after another.
When they were encircling the rats just now, Tang Ming faced the rats head-on and was scratched on the chest by the rats' sharp claws. Although he dodged in time, he still left several deep wounds that could be seen to the bone.
The wound was too deep and too long. Using hemostatic spray and recovery agent only made the bleeding less severe. The wound needed to be stitched in the hospital.
Fortunately, the rat's claws and thorns were not poisonous, otherwise more than half of Tang Ming and his companions would have been killed or injured today.
Compared to those who were carried to the hospital, Tang Ming was relatively lucky. After he arrived at the hospital by car, he was able to get off the car and walk into the hospital by himself.
Debridement room.
The doctor looked at the wound on Tang Ming's chest and said, "It's not serious. Just a stitch will do. Do you want anesthesia?"
Many people in the base don't like to take anesthesia, especially when the injuries are just flesh wounds, and even stitches are not needed.
Among them, the special team has the largest number of people.
The doctor had prepared the medicine to clean the wound and had already started cleaning it when I asked.
Tang Ming frowned. The potion stained the wound, stinging it with a burning pain. "No need."
The doctor quickly cleaned the wound and began to stitch him up using sterile instruments.
It was obvious that the doctor was very familiar with this. He moved his hands very quickly and sewed all the wounds together in a short while.
"Okay, remember to use the recovery agent, and the stitches can be removed tomorrow." After saying that, the doctor hurried to treat the wound of the next patient.
The wound that had been stitched was not bandaged, and Tang Ming sprayed himself with medicine again.
He suddenly remembered the last time when An Qing sprayed medicine on him when he was injured on his back, and subconsciously looked at the wound on his chest this time.
Tang Ming smiled, put aside some inexplicable thoughts in his mind, stood up, put on his clothes, and buttoned them one by one.
As he walked out of the debridement room, he ran into Jiang Ziqian.
Jiang Ziqian is the leader of the tenth group of the Fire Team. When the front rat appeared, Tang Ming asked the ninth and tenth groups to protect An Qing and evacuate.
He frowned and walked over to ask, "Why are you here?"
Jiang Ziqian saw Tang Ming and walked over, "Captain."
Tang Ming looked around but didn't see An Qing. "What happened? Is An Qing injured?"
When he said this, his heart was already in his throat, and his eyebrows looked even sharper.
Jiang Ziqian shook his head: "No, the boss is fine. It was Muchen who was injured, so the boss came to see him."
Tang Ming paused and nodded, "Where is it?"
Jiang Ziqian pointed in the direction and Tang Ming walked towards that direction.
It’s not far actually, just around the corner.
An Qing was standing at the door of the emergency room. The members of the Fire Team were spreading outward with An Qing as the center. He knew the hiding places of all the team members with just one glance.
Chen Guangmao and Wan Hu from Group 9 were guarding An Qing not far away. The person closest to An Qing was Wen Qing, the deputy director of the Security Department.
When Tang Ming walked over, he couldn't help but frown. There was something obviously wrong with An Qing standing there motionless, and her whole body was very tense.
He walked over quickly. Team Liehuo and Wen Qing looked over keenly and only relaxed when they saw that it was Tang Ming.
Tang Ming came to An Qing's side and looked at her carefully, and saw that she was staring blankly into the emergency room.
He followed her gaze and saw Mu Chen who was unconscious inside. Mu Chen did not look well and was obviously poisoned.
Tang Ming subconsciously turned sideways, blocking An Qing's sight.
He had killed zombies and humans in his previous life, and in this life he had killed countless mutated animals and plants and had seen countless dead people.
An Qing is different from him. Before she traveled through time, she was just an ordinary person. She had never experienced anything and had never seen these things.
"An Qing." Tang Ming looked down at her, "Are you okay?"
An Qing was originally staring at Mu Chen, but her sight was suddenly blocked by a figure. She raised her head somewhat hesitantly and met Tang Ming's concerned eyes: "Captain Tang?"
She had never seen a dead person or a dying person. The original owner had seen all kinds of dead people, but that was the original owner's memory, not hers. Even if she knew the original owner's memory, it was like seeing flowers in the fog, separated by a layer.
Now seeing Mu Chen's appearance, she felt cold all over, her hands and feet were numb, and her heart was beating so fast that she could hardly breathe.
She didn't know whether she was scared or what. Her mind was blank and she couldn't think of anything. She just felt cold, very cold, as if she was suddenly placed in a world of ice and snow and was shivering with cold.
Suddenly, a warm hand covered her tightly clenched fist, and the warmth spread through her hand to every part of her body, and the cold was dispelled bit by bit.
"It's okay, don't be afraid." Tang Ming looked into An Qing's eyes and spoke soothingly.
An Qing subconsciously wanted to look at Mu Chen, but Tang Ming's body blocked her view and she couldn't see anything.
Tang Ming turned his head and glanced at Mu Chen in the emergency room. There were many transparent tubes connected to Mu Chen's body, which looked very scary.
Soon, he turned around and said with a smile: "Don't worry, the doctor is filtering his blood. He will be fine soon and will be back tonight."
An Qing blinked, then looked at Tang Ming and asked, "Really?"
Tang Ming nodded: "Really."
An Qing's tense body suddenly relaxed. With this relaxation, she felt her legs and feet become weak and her body shook a little.
Tang Ming hurriedly grabbed An Qing's hand and helped her sit on the chair next to him.
An Qing sat on the chair, covered her eyes with her hands and took a deep breath.
She finally understood why people in this world were so prone to mental and psychological problems.
An Qing sat on the chair for a long time until Mu Chen's complexion in the emergency room improved and the color of his lips gradually recovered. Only then did she feel completely relieved.
She stood up, suddenly remembering something, and asked Tang Ming: "Captain Tang, how are you? Are you hurt?"
Tang Ming nodded: "It's just a minor skin injury, it's nothing serious."
An Qing frowned: "Where are the others? Are there any casualties?"
Tang Ming: "There are some injuries, but they are not serious. There is no danger to his life. Don't worry."
An Qing nodded: "Let's go, let's go back to the hotel first."
Although she has decided to become stronger, the current situation is that she cannot become stronger all at once. She still needs to rely on the base, and the base must not be in trouble.
An Qing hurried to the restaurant, where people were still busy.
Working in two shifts, these people fried a lot of dried meat under the watchful eyes of Ye Yuyuncheng and the others.
Someone was watching and could confirm that the dried meat was dried in an oven and then stir-fried in a wok.
An Qing picked up a piece of dried meat and tasted it. The meat was very dry and chewy, and tasted very similar. The seasoning was not prepared by her, and the taste was a little different from the seasoning she had prepared before, but it was also very delicious.
The dried meat can be preserved for a long time, and she can bake it in the oven for a while to make it drier and preserve it for a longer time.
From now on, I can carry dried meat with me, which will give me extra protection when I encounter a situation like today.
An Qing tasted several pieces of dried meat, but didn't feel anything special. She also didn't notice any increase in her fighting power. She guessed that it would only be reflected in battle.
Ye Yu and her team were able to complete all the steps of making dried meat in an orderly manner, so she no longer worried about the dried meat and turned to look at the pig heads, pig tails, pig trotters, and the many bones from yesterday.
An Qing took out the stew pot and casserole she had just bought, and then went to get the snow pork ribs.
The ribs were very long. An Qing took a knife and broke the ribs with one stroke. Soon, the ribs were broken into ten-centimeter-long pieces. The ends of the bones were very neat, and there was no difference from those sawed by a machine saw in her previous life.
An Qing quickly washed the ribs and put them into the casserole. She then bought a package of mushroom and pork ribs ingredients from the system and put it into the casserole to stew together.
The casserole was placed aside to stew, and An Qing went to get the pig's tail, washed it, chopped it into small pieces with a knife, blanched it, put it into the soup pot, and simmered it with the marinade bag.
Last night and this morning, all the meat that needed to be baked was baked, and what was left were bones, pig heads, pig tails, pig trotters, and sheep heads and sheep trotters.
An Qing’s pot is too small, and she can’t stew much each time. If these things are left like this for a long time, they will go bad.
An Qing put the pig's trotters and tails in the oven to dry, so that they can be preserved for a longer time and can be stewed whenever she wants.
An Qing only had the chicken feet left. She wanted to braise them, so she washed them, chopped off the nails one by one, and then chopped off the fingers one by one. There was no other way, her pot could not hold the whole chicken feet.
You can only chop the chicken feet into small pieces.
An Qing blanched the fish in an ordinary pot, then took them out and set them aside to drain the water.
After more than half an hour, the pig tail was cooked soft and tasty. An Qing picked it up and put the chicken feet in to continue braising.
The aroma of the stew quickly spread out, and this time no one came to the restaurant entrance to block and look around.
Suddenly, there was a loud noise outside.
An Qing was a little surprised: "What happened outside?"
Some members of the Fire Team are still in the hospital. As long as they are not seriously injured, they have all returned and are doing what they should do, protecting An Qing.
Bai Wei went out to check the situation and came back soon: "Boss, the White Tiger Team is back, they've dragged the Black Snake's body back!"
An Qing was stunned and found the memory of the black snake being hungry from the original owner's memory.
Black snakes are a type of mutant animal that is very difficult to deal with and are so rare that you either never encounter one or you cannot kill it if you do.
However, the black snake is a very valuable mutant animal to the base.
But no matter how valuable the black snake is, the base has hunted it before, so there is no need to be so excited, right?
An Qing asked Ye Yu to watch the pot for her, and she went out to see what was going on.
Tang Ming stayed by her side and soon arrived at the entrance of the base.
The entrance was surrounded by a dense crowd of people. There were so many people that An Qing couldn't see what was going on inside even when she stood on tiptoe.
The people in the base were obviously very surprised and excited, with exclamations coming one after another.
