Chapter 92 Burning Stone as Food
Xie Liang and Xu He were both hospitalized and stayed in the same ward. Xie Liang injured his spinal nerves, while Xu He injured his internal organs.
Xie Liang had been to this private hospital before. It was the same one Xu He had sent him to when he had a fever before.
The director of the hospital was Xu Wenjie, a friend of Xu He. He drove over personally and took Xie Liang and Xu He to the hospital with two doctors.
With Dean Xu, they saved themselves a lot of trouble. For example, if Xu He had gone to a regular hospital for the knife wound on his abdomen, he would have been questioned by the doctor.
As soon as he entered the hospital, Director Xu arranged for the doctor to push Xie Liang to do various examinations. It was like a green light all the way, and the speed was extremely fast. All the examinations were completed in less than an hour.
When Dean Xu personally pushed Xie Liang back in a wheelchair, Xu He had already finished the operation and was lying on the bed in the ward.
"Your friend injured the nerves in his spine. It's not a big problem, but it will take some time to recover." Xu Wenjie said.
"How should it be treated?" Xu He asked.
"Just rest and take some nerve medication, and it will heal on its own."
"that's all?"
"That's right. What do you think, brother? I'm quite nice, right?" Xu Wenjie said.
"Yeah." Xu He responded lightly.
"No more?"
Xu He: "What else?"
"Okay, have a good rest!"
Then, Xu Wenjie arranged for two nurses to carry Xie Liang to the bed: "I'm going to go and get busy first. If you need anything, ring the bell and call the head nurse. I've told her."
"Well, thank you." Xie Liang said.
"Don't be polite with me, Brother He's friends are my friends." Xu Wenjie said with a smile.
A week later, Xu He had almost recovered and took Xie Liang back to his villa in the suburbs.
Xu He specially hired two famous neurologists and two live-in nannies. The former was responsible for Xie Liang's spinal rehabilitation services, while the latter was responsible for taking care of their food and daily life.
More than a month later, Xie Liang was finally able to walk with the help of crutches.
Fortunately, it has not come again during this period of time. He also asked someone to make a pair of wooden crutches and put them into the storage ring, so that he would have something to walk with when he passed through it one day.
That afternoon, a strange phone call came to Xie Liang.
It was Hongguo. She asked Xie Liang and Xu He if they were free and asked them to go to the next city area immediately - the city where she lived.
On the phone, Hong Guo didn't specify what the urgent matter was, but Xie Liang could tell that her tone was very panicked, and she only said that it was related to the Vortex Gate.
After Xie Liang hung up the phone, he told Xu He about this, and the two of them drove off immediately.
After arriving at the agreed location, Hongguo took them to a private hospital.
Hongguo looked very bad and walked in front in a hurry.
Xu He supported Xie Liang and walked behind them. They didn't walk fast, so Hong Guo had to stop and wait for them.
"Miss Hongguo, what happened?" Xie Liang asked.
"You'll know in a moment," said Hongguo.
Ten minutes later, Hongguo took them into a high-end ward.
There was only one bed inside, and on the bed lay Long Qingye, who was plugged into tubes.
Xie Liang couldn't believe it: "How could he be like this?"
"The last copy was Brother Ye's last copy. Three days ago, we came back alive together, but this morning, Brother Ye..." Hongguo's eyes were red and he looked very desperate.
"Is the symbol on his chest still there?" Xie Liang asked.
Hong Guo walked to Long Qingye's bedside and said, "They're all gone. He was hit by a car, but he left me a message on WeChat."
"What?"
"That's why I called you here."
Hongguo stood up and closed the door of the ward, and asked Xie Liang and Xu He to sit on the sofa in the ward.
After a while, she said seriously, "Brother Ye said that the Ten Comings was a scam."
Xie Liang said: "A scam?"
"yes."
"You mean, him being hit by a car has something to do with the Whirlpool Gate?"
"What a coincidence, especially since Brother Ye left me this message after the accident."
Xu He: "Do you want us to investigate?"
Hong Guo said to Xu He in an almost pleading tone, "I can only turn to you. I know you have a solution."
"I see."
Afterwards, Xie Liang and Xu He began to investigate the survivors who had completed ten descents.
They actually found people who survived the ten advents, and there were three people alive in total.
However, without exception, they either became vegetative due to various accidents or were admitted to a mental hospital due to mental problems.
The three of them had one thing in common: they looked like empty shells with their souls taken away, either sleeping or in a daze.
Such investigation results made Xie Liang completely lose confidence. Even if he could complete ten descents, this would be the only result that awaited them.
Xie Liang only told this to Hong Guo, and did not tell Lu Bubu and the others, so that they could keep some hope. People always need some hope to survive.
That night, after taking a shower, Xie Liang lay on the bed. The confused feeling of being half asleep and half awake came again. He knew that he was about to enter Su Yubai's dream. After a while, he fell asleep.
Sure enough, when he opened his eyes again, he was standing on the beach of the island.
Without a crutch, Xie Liang could only stagger to a flat rock and sit down, waiting for Su Yubai to appear.
Not long after he sat down, Su Yubai emerged from the sea and came to him.
Xie Liang hasn't dreamed of Su Yubai for a long time, not since he traveled back in time.
Su Yubai looked very haggard, his face paler than ever. He went straight to Xie Liang and sat down.
"Xiaoliang."
Xie Liang has been in a bad mood recently, but he still forced a smile at him: "Are you okay?"
Su Yubai lowered his head and said dejectedly, "Oh no, I'm dying."
"Me too."
Su Yubai seemed startled by his words and looked straight at Xie Liang: "How could it be?"
"Maybe less than six months. Do you remember anything?"
Su Yubai still looked confused: "I can't remember."
Su Yubai leaned his head on Xie Liang's shoulder.
"Have you ever thought about why I'm here?" Xie Liang asked.
"I miss you so much..." Su Yubai said as she put her arms around his waist, as if she wasn't listening to him at all.
Xie Liang's body began to break out in goose bumps again. He reached out and pushed Su Yubai away: "Don't do this."
"He can do it, but I can't?"
Xie Liang whispered: "He is my lover."
Su Yubai laughed when he heard this: "How funny... the latecomer is the winner?"
"You stabbed him, isn't that enough?"
"Did he tell you that?"
"I saw it myself. I have always only considered you as my brother."
"Then I'll tell you what I think of you."
Su Yubai ignored Xie Liang's struggle, picked him up, flew straight to the sea surface, and then sank into the water.
The imagined feeling of suffocation did not come. Xie Liang touched his clothes and found them dry, just like on the shore.
The sea water was as clear as glass and emerald green. The two gradually sank to the depths of the seabed. After an unknown amount of time, Su Yubai carried Xie Liang into a lush coral reef.
The coral reef was filled with countless exotic jade carvings, and the ground was covered with pearls and brocade of various colors. In the center, a giant shell several meters long and wide was spread out, filled with brocade.
It was not until Su Yubai carried Xie Liang towards that place that Xie Liang saw clearly that it was a shell bed.
Xie Liang vaguely knew what he wanted to do, and struggled quickly: "Let me go!"
He had no strength in his legs yet, so he could only push Su Yubai away with his hands. However, his push was useless, and Su Yubai hugged him even tighter.
Su Yubai walked to the shell bed and threw Xie Liang down.
Xie Liang struggled to sit up on the bed, but Su Yubai pressed towards him and pinned him down on the bed.
"Let me go!" Xie Liang put his hands on Su Yubai's chest and tried his best to push him away.
He didn't know whether his strength was too weak or Su Yubai's strength was too great, but he couldn't shake Su Yubai at all.
Su Yubai slowly kissed Xie Liang, and Xie Liang quickly pushed his head away with his hand.
Seeing this, Su Yubai grabbed both of Xie Liang's hands and fixed one hand on top of Xie Liang's head. Xie Liang was unable to resist and had to turn his head away without looking at him.
A feeling of disgust rose in Xie Liang's heart: "I will hate you."
Upon hearing this, Su Yubai reached out and pinched his chin, turning his face around. Only then did Xie Liang see the pain in Su Yubai's eyes.
Su Yubai ignored his struggle and kissed him on the lips.
Xie Liang bit Su Yubai's lip with hatred, and a bloody smell spread between their lips...
At this moment, Xie Liang was pulled back to reality by an external force.
Xu He was sitting on the bed, holding him in his arms and rocking him gently.
Seeing Xu He's worried look, Xie Liang quickly took a deep breath to relax his tense body.
"Did you have a nightmare?" Xu He asked softly.
Xie Liang didn't know how to start, so he just hugged him tightly.
As the days passed, Xie Liang didn't want to see Su Yubai. When that half-asleep feeling came over him, he would restrain himself and simply stay awake.
Because he resisted sleeping, he lost weight visibly in a short period of time.
Unaware of the situation, Xu He took him to various well-known hospitals across the country and even found two burning stones for Xie Liang.
Xie Liang didn't want to eat it, so Xu He quietly crushed it and mixed it with rice for him.
It was not until Xie Liang suddenly developed a high fever that Xu He told him about this.
