Chapter 1097 A Blessing in Disguise



The room was fully equipped with bed sheets and blankets, and even pots and pans were provided, showing that they had put a lot of thought into it.

The Shen family still preferred to use their own things, so they tidied up these items and replaced them with the ones they brought from Shanghai.

As for these new ones, they won't bother with them.

Shen Yanming checked the room one by one, and only after confirming that there were no cameras did he go to the bathroom to take a shower and change his clothes.

The others did the same; after changing their clothes and lying in bed, they fell asleep very quickly.

Although I didn't get anything done all morning, all that running around was tiring.

I woke up at 2:30 and heard someone knocking on the door.

Shen Yanming got up and opened the door, only to see Xiong Jianwei, whom he hadn't seen for many years, holding several lunch boxes and smiling at him: "Old Shen, long time no see!"

Shen Yanming was pleasantly surprised and quickly invited him in: "Old Xiong, are you alright? I was terrified when the space collapsed!"

Xiong Jianwei nodded: "I was almost scared to death!"

He sighed after saying that, "I really thought I was going to die back then, but who would have thought that the captain... I would rather die myself!"

Shen Yanming patted his shoulder: "Don't think like that. He hopes you're all doing well."

"But I also hope he's alright! Every one of our brothers who woke up feels the same way. Captain Kai is such a good person, why did God have to treat him like this!" Xiong Jianwei punched the wall, quite indignant.

Shen Yanming paused for a moment, then said, "Space is bound to the soul. If it dissipates, how can a person be unharmed? You don't need to blame yourselves too much, because even if I hadn't saved you, Xiao Kai would have ended up like this."

"But it can't be that serious."

"That's true!"

"Hey, why am I nagging you? You've come all this way to be guests, have you rested well? This is the meal that Leader Qiu prepared for you. From now on, I'll be in charge of your three meals a day!"

Shen Yanming smiled and accepted the lunchbox: "Thank you! But you don't need to send any more in the future. I see there are cooking utensils here. Qiao An and I brought a lot of rice and grain from Haishi. We can just cook something at home."

Perhaps because Qiu Man had given instructions, Xiong Jianwei didn't dwell on the matter and nodded, saying, "That's fine too!"

When the family opened the lunchbox, they found it contained white rice served with braised pork and vermicelli.

Although it was simple, the taste was authentic. The family of four was very satisfied with their meal.

After finishing his meal, Shen Yanming patted his stomach and asked, "Does your head still hurt?"

Xiong Jianwei didn't know what to say for a moment, then thought for a moment and said, "There is a little bit, but it's bearable."

"Oh? Could you elaborate?"

Xiong Jianwei nodded: "It feels like being pricked with needles, but it's not as painful as when I first woke up. I can bear it now."

Shen Yanming couldn't truly empathize, but he knew from thinking about it that it must have been an unpleasant experience.

After thinking for a moment, he took out a cup of honey water from his spatial storage and pushed it in front of Xiong Jianwei: "Try it!"

"What is this?" Xiong Jianwei took the cup with a puzzled look, then sniffed it and knew what it was. Without hesitation, he gulped it down.

After finishing the drink, he licked his lips and exclaimed, "It's actually quite delicious!"

Shen Yanming suppressed a laugh, thinking to himself, how could spiritual honey made with spiritual spring water not taste good?

"By the way, are you guys going to see Captain Xiao Kai?"

"Yes, I'm going. Is now a convenient time?"

"That's convenient, I'll show you the way!"

Shen Yanming nodded and went to get dressed. An'an and Nuannuan did the same.

Bi Qiaoan took the washed lunchbox and put it in a bag. Xiong Jianwei took it and said, "Qiaoan, why are you being so diligent? I can wash it myself when I get back."

"I've already troubled you to bring me food, how could I let you wash the lunchboxes again? Besides, you're not feeling well!"

"Yeah, my head..." She hadn't noticed until she said it, and then she was shocked: "Why doesn't my head hurt anymore? Old Shen, what kind of magic potion did you give me?"

Shen Yanming was also confused: "It really doesn't hurt anymore?"

"Yes, yes, I feel much better," Xiong Jianwei asked excitedly.

Shen Yanming shook his head: "I don't know either!" He wondered if spiritual energy could really heal soul wounds?

However, upon closer analysis, it does seem quite possible. After all, the spirit fruit that An'an discovered, capable of condensing souls, grows on the mountain. If it didn't require spiritual energy, why wouldn't it appear at the foot of the mountain? Therefore, it's quite possible that he stumbled upon the perfect opportunity.

"Alright, this honey is what I saved up from a few years ago. Give it to the brothers and see if it works."

As Shen Yanming spoke, he took out two jars of spiritual honey from his storage ring.

Xiong Jianwei didn't stand on ceremony with him and happily hugged him.

"Whether it works or not, I thank you on behalf of my brothers!" He thought to himself, "I hope it really works; half of my brothers are still unconscious."

"It was nothing, no need to be so polite." After saying that, he followed Xiong Jianwei out the door and walked for a few minutes before successfully entering Li Sikai's ward.

He used to be such a spirited person, but the space had worn him down and he lost his temper. Now, he was lying motionless in bed.

Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan both had some indescribable emotions, like regret, pity, and a sense of loss for their kind.

He walked to the bedside and gently took Li Sikai's hand. The hand was pale and weak, reduced to skin and bones.

"Even with the dedicated care of doctors and nurses, Captain Xiao Kai inevitably lost a lot of weight."

Shen Yanming nodded, suspecting that this was due to insufficient energy.

"Then you stay here with him for a while, I'll head back now."

Leader Qiu had instructed that once the person was taken to the designated location, they could leave immediately. What the family did in the hospital room was none of his concern.

Xiong Jianwei wasn't worried, after all, they had been through thick and thin together. His life had been saved by Shen Yanming.

After he left, Shen Yanming took out the pills that An'an had prepared earlier from his storage ring and fed them to Li Sikai, and then fed him half a bottle of honey water.

The couple carefully checked the ward and only began to mutter to themselves after confirming that there were no surveillance or listening devices.

"Honey, I feel a very obvious spatial fluctuation around us."

Shen Yanming felt the same way, and his gaze toward Li Sikai even carried a hint of a smile: "Perhaps, he will turn misfortune into blessing."

"To become a true spatial ability user?"

Shen Yanming made a shushing gesture: "We just need to know, don't tell anyone. Xiao Kai has already suffered enough, let him live the rest of his life for himself."

Bi Qiaoan nodded: "But now everyone has storage devices, so spatial ability users aren't as popular anymore."

Shen Yanming shook his head, thinking that things were still somewhat different after all.

One is an ability you possess yourself, which no one can take away. The other is something given to you from the outside world, which you can easily lose. Which would you choose?

Moreover, Xiao Kai had previously bound himself to a spatial dimension, and his newly derived abilities might be able to accommodate life.

Who wouldn't want a space like this?

The two thought Li Sikai was unconscious, but little did they know that he was still conscious and could hear.
