Chapter 179 Severe Injury
"What happened? How did you cut your hand? You were so careless..."
Gu's mother rushed forward and, seeing the cut on Gu Yanfei's finger, complained with heartache.
Su Xiangwan quickly said, "Aunt Liu, quickly bring the first-aid kit!"
"It's nothing, it's just a small cut, it doesn't hurt anymore!"
Gu Yanfei was caught off guard when she was first cut, which is why she cried out.
Now, seeing that Gu's mother and Su Xiangwan were both worried about her, I felt a little embarrassed.
He quickly gestured that he was alright.
At this moment, Aunt Liu also came over with the first-aid kit.
She wanted to do a quick bandage herself, but Su Xiangwan stopped her with a look.
"Luckily, the knife is new and not rusty."
After carefully disinfecting Gu Yanfei's wound, Su Xiangwan bandaged it with gauze.
Seeing that she still wanted to use a knife to sharpen her pencil, she asked him to do so.
He quickly stopped her and said, "Don't move, just do it yourself."
Seeing that she had nothing to do, Gu Yanfei could only stand helplessly to the side. For some reason, she suddenly felt very uncomfortable. She couldn't explain where the feeling came from, but she couldn't shake it off.
She shook her head, not wanting to be bothered by this sudden feeling.
Actually, Su Xiangwan was also feeling this uncomfortable.
However, her personality made her hide these feelings even deeper.
After all, Gu's parents were already uneasy about Gu Yanxiao's mission.
If she continues to hide this feeling of unease, it will only cause more trouble once her parents sense it.
Taking a deep breath, Su Xiangwan forced herself to calm down and began to use painting to soothe her emotions.
Even if the finished product doesn't satisfy me, as long as it keeps the family in a stable state, that's good.
In contrast, the people waiting in the house were warm and peaceful.
At this moment, Gu Yanxiao had already led his mission team to lie in ambush among the rocks on a certain coastline.
The night became their best camouflage.
"Commander, this is the third day already, and we still haven't seen any ships. Could there be a problem...?"
Although he didn't want to say such unlucky and discouraging things, Shao Zijie was also anxious as he looked at the motionless coastline.
Those are more than a dozen top experts who have made outstanding achievements in various fields. Their return will definitely raise the level of scientific research in our country by a lot.
If something were to happen, it would be a huge loss to the entire scientific research community.
Looking at the calm sea, Gu Yanxiao felt extremely anxious.
By this time, more than ten hours had passed since their agreed time.
The other party is so late, yet there's been no word from them. This is not a good sign.
Thinking of this, he said, "Zijie, you guys wait here, I'll take a few people out to sea to take a look."
"Commander, you should stay here! We've lost contact since we went to sea. If there are any new instructions from above, we'll need you to take command."
Shao Zijie spoke up to remind him.
Gu Yanxiao paused for a moment. Shao Zijie was right. If something went wrong with the ship transporting those experts, it was very likely that they would no longer be safe here.
The enemy has very likely already discovered their location.
But without receiving those experts, they couldn't possibly retreat.
Otherwise, it would be tantamount to the country abandoning those experts who traveled thousands of miles, braving countless hardships and dangers, and crossing national borders to return and serve their country.
"Alright! Take a few men and secretly sneak out to sea to take a look. Be very careful."
Gu Yanxiao nodded and watched as Shao Zijie and his men drifted out to sea into the night.
He turned to the remaining people and said, "Everyone else, prepare to engage in combat at any time."
Sure enough, just as he finished speaking, a gunshot rang out.
It was heading straight towards the boat that was rowing outwards.
"Zijie!" Gu Yanxiao's expression changed.
We're alright!
"Clang clang clang!"
Faintly, Shao Zijie's voice could be heard along with the sound of gunfire.
"The gunshots are coming from the west! Everyone, follow me!"
Gu Yanxiao knew very well that today's operation had been leaked!
Although it is unknown who leaked this secret or how it was leaked.
But the most important thing now is to safely bring those experts back; there must be no losses whatsoever.
Shao Zijie led his five-man squad and finally drifted more than a mile out to sea. Hearing the gunshots coming from the shore, he knew very well that Gu Yanxiao was facing off against the enemy.
"Commander, are you alright?"
Li Feng, a teammate standing nearby, keenly smelled the blood and quickly asked.
Without changing his expression, Shao Zijie pulled a strip of cloth from his backpack, casually tied it around his left side a few times, and said, "It's alright, keep going outwards, pay attention to your surroundings, and see if there are any boats."
"Bang!"
Just when everyone had no idea how many nautical miles they had sailed, they finally heard a gunshot.
Shao Zijie quickly picked up his binoculars and looked around.
Finally, in the distance, I saw some lights.
There were clearly two ships engaged in battle on the sea.
After assessing the situation of the two ships, Shao Zijie didn't dare to delay and immediately ordered, "Charge forward and ram them!"
"yes!"
Li Feng readily agreed, accelerated to maximum speed, and rammed directly into the enemy ship that was attacking his compatriots.
"Blood Special!"
Oh my god...
The group of blond-haired, blue-eyed people clearly did not expect that just when they were about to catch their prey, a ship would suddenly appear and crash into them.
Caught off guard, their boat was rammed and a hole was punched in it.
"Kill them!"
At this point, they no longer had any intention of capturing the experts alive.
Since they can't have it, they absolutely can't let others have it either.
Gunshots rang out.
The other side showed no mercy and turned their guns on the experts on the ship.
"Quickly lie down and hide!"
As Shao Zijie spoke, he quickly brought his boat closer to the boat carrying the experts, and before they even got close, he jumped aboard.
As soon as I boarded the ship, I smelled a strong stench of blood.
Shao Zijie's heart sank, and he quickly asked, "Who are you people? How many of you are there? Is anyone injured?"
"We're from America. Who are you?" A young man with a cool and aloof demeanor looked at Shao Zijie warily and asked.
Hearing this, Shao Zijie became even more certain of their identities and said directly, "I am Shao Zijie from the Special Forces of the People's Republic of China. I have been ordered by the commander to come and meet you. Now, tell me about your situation."
Hearing this, the young man finally felt relieved and quickly replied, "There are twelve of us in total. Three are injured, two with minor injuries and one with serious injuries who urgently needs a blood transfusion."
