Chapter 184 Choice
Zhao Xiao rushed over, picked the person up, and walked towards the bedroom.
Some people who were planning to go over to watch the fun were frightened by his gloomy face and consciously made way for him.
I carried him all the way to the bedroom and put him on the bed. He sniffed and breathed deeply, as if he was asleep.
"Yuzhu, Yuzhu, wake up." Zhao Xiao patted him gently, but there was no response. He must have fallen into a coma again, just like last time.
"Hey, what happened to this guy? Is he dead?" The man on the opposite bed said this recklessly.
"What did you say?" Zhao Xiao turned his head.
"Not moving at all..."
This sentence instantly ignited the gunpowder. Without Song Yuzhu's obstruction, Zhao Xiao was like a tiger out of a cage. He grabbed the man's hair, pulled him off the bed, and dragged him to the corridor outside.
"What are you doing? Let me go! Do you know who my uncle is?!" The man struggled desperately, but the other party was too strong and he couldn't break free.
The man's servant rushed over to help, but was hit on the back of the neck by Zhao Xiao, and fell to the ground. He finally regretted not thinking before speaking.
He was the youngest son in the family and had been spoiled by his family since he was young. He thought the world revolved around him, but he didn't know that there were all kinds of people around him when he went out, and he might lose his life if he was not careful.
"I...I was wrong. Please be magnanimous and forgive me..."
Zhao Xiao didn't say anything, but his murderous aura was overwhelming. He just gave him a cold look, and the man was scared to death.
He howled and shouted: "Someone, help me!"
Zhao Xiao removed his jaw and dragged him to the corner before starting to beat him up.
One punch hit him in the face, causing blood to spurt from his nose and mouth, and another punch knocked out all his teeth.
Zhao Xiao beat him expressionlessly, and soon the man collapsed on the ground without the strength to struggle. Killing a weakling like him was not much harder than killing a chicken. If it wasn't difficult to do it in front of Yuzhu, Zhao Xiao would have thrown him out of the car when he was causing trouble yesterday.
Someone heard the noise and stuck his head out. At first, he wanted to stop the fight, but when he saw how ferocious Zhao Xiao was, he was so scared that he quickly closed the bedroom door and dared not come out again.
"Stop! No more fighting!" The patrolling officers finally arrived.
Zhao Xiao paused for a moment to regain his senses, let go of the unconscious man and threw him to the ground. He raised his head, his bloody face looked like a Shura from hell.
The officer was so frightened that he took a few steps back and drew the sword from his waist: "You...what are you going to do!"
"Go get me a basin of water to wash my hands. Yuzhu cannot stand the smell of blood."
"Ah?" The officer was stunned when he heard this, thinking, is this man crazy? !
Zhao Xiao frowned. He didn't have a token to prove his identity when he came out. He remembered that there was his portrait on the banknote: "Take out the money and prove who I am!"
The officer swallowed his saliva, took out a stack of coins from his pocket, and took a closer look. The man in front of him looked exactly like the General Auxiliary State on the fifty-cent note!
"This person has offended me, so throw him off the train."
The officer was so frightened that his legs went limp. He tremblingly bowed his hands, turned around and ran towards the locomotive to report to his superior.
The conductor in charge of the train was startled when he heard that General Fuguo was on the train, and he hurried over.
It just so happened that he had also served as a lieutenant in the army. When he saw Zhao Xiao, he was so excited that he couldn't say a word. He knelt on the ground and said, "I didn't know that the general was in the carriage. I failed to welcome him from afar. I am remiss in my duty!"
Zhao Xiao had just changed his clothes and washed the blood off his face. He said calmly, "It's okay. Your Majesty and I are leaving the palace incognito this time. If we hadn't run into any scoundrels, we wouldn't have revealed our identities."
"This man has repeatedly offended the emperor. I have already executed him. Send someone to find his home and pass on my order to have all his relatives tattooed with names and exiled to the border."
The conductor glanced at the person lying on the bed and his heart immediately jumped into his throat. He didn't expect that the emperor was also in the car!
I was actually offended!
This person is really short-sighted!
"I obey your command!"
Zhao Xiao waved his hand and asked him to take the people outside away. Seeing the conductor kneeling on the ground, he asked, "What else?"
"General, this place is too simple. Please move to the front carriage with... the Saint to rest."
The second carriage of each train has a room for the conductor to rest in. Although it is not as luxurious as the palace, it is much more spacious than here.
"No need. The emperor doesn't want to reveal his identity. Just pretend that this incident never happened. Don't send anyone to disturb us. And keep your men under control. Don't go out and talk nonsense!"
"Yes, sir!" The conductor bowed and walked out of the carriage, his clothes soaked with cold sweat. The general's oppression was so strong that ordinary people could not bear it at all.
Four or five officers were waiting outside. When they saw the driver coming out, they hurried forward to ask, "Sir, is that really the general in there?!"
"I didn't expect the general to take our train!"
The conductor frowned and said, "Shut up! Stop talking nonsense. Keep your mouth shut about what happened today. Don't say a word! Otherwise, you won't be able to work on this train anymore!"
"Yes, yes..." Everyone responded. Being an official on the train earned much more than an ordinary yamen runner, and no one dared to throw away their iron rice bowl for a few words.
"What about this person?"
The conductor glanced at the man who had fainted on the ground with blood all over his face and snorted coldly: "Tie him up and put him in the coal car. When we get to the station, send him directly to the local government."
This time everyone understood clearly that the person in the side room must be General Fuguo.
*
Inside the carriage, Zhao Xiao was feeding water to Song Yuzhu. He held him in his arms and fed him little by little with a small spoon so that the water would not spill out and would not choke him.
He was the one who took care of Song Yuzhu when she was in a coma last time, and he did a great job of taking care of her. However, he didn't know how long she would be in a coma this time.
After feeding him water and putting him back on the bed, Zhao Xiao gently stroked his cheek with the back of his hand, covered him with the quilt, turned around, raised his head and forced back his tears.
It's okay, Yuzhu will definitely get better once she finds Taoist Master Yiqing.
At this time, Song Yuzhu, who was lying on the bed, was experiencing a horrifying experience.
The moment he fainted, he found himself falling into a dark abyss.
You can't see anything here, you can only hear some vague sounds.
Song Yuzhu closed his eyes and listened carefully. The sounds were a little clearer. One was the noisy sound of a train and Zhao Xiao's voice, and the other was the ticking sound of a heart rate monitor that he was familiar with.
He heard Zhao Xiao suddenly become furious because of something said by the man in the same compartment and took the man out of the compartment.
Song Yuzhu wanted to speak to stop him, but no sound came out. She was secretly worried that the man was probably in danger.
This was the first time he saw Zhao Xiao furious. He was like a completely different person. Cold and ruthless, cruel and merciless. No wonder Xu Bing saw through his true nature and persuaded him to ascend the throne and become the emperor.
However, Song Yuzhu was not afraid, because he knew that as long as he was there, Zhao Xiao would never become a killing machine.
He gradually focused his attention on the second sound. The ticking sound of the instrument beside his ear became louder and louder, and then there was the sound of footsteps.
"It's time to change the dressing for 307," the nurse hung up the nutrient solution and screwed the other side into the reserved pinhole on the wrist. She adjusted the flow rate and checked whether the infusion tube was unobstructed. She noted the time and would come back to get the empty bottle later.
Song Yuzhu looked down at his hands in surprise. Just a moment ago, he felt a cold liquid flowing into his body.
He shuddered, his mind in a state of confusion. What on earth was going on? Was he going to wake up in another body?
After a while, a second set of footsteps was heard in the ward.
"Is Aunt Sun here?"
"Well, Xiao Li didn't come today?" A slightly older voice came, sounding familiar.
Then Song Yuzhu felt as if someone was wiping her face, and then her hands and feet.
"Sister Li's daughter is sick, and I'm taking her place today. Aunt Sun, are you a relative of this patient?" The young nurse asked with some confusion when she saw how well she took care of the patient.
"No, Doctor Song saved my son's life before. I happened to be a nurse in the hospital, so I took care of him more."
Song Yuzhu remembered that he had performed heart surgery on a family member of a caregiver named Sun, and after that the sister-in-law often brought him meals and fruits.
"Why aren't Doctor Song's family members here? What disease does he have?" the young nurse asked while flipping through the record book.
Aunt Sun rinsed the towel and said, "You just transferred to the inpatient department not long ago, so you don't know him. This is Director Song from the thoracic surgery department of our hospital. His parents have passed away for many years, and he doesn't have many relatives around him."
"Ah?" The young nurse cried out in surprise and looked at the person on the bed carefully. Although the person's face did not look good, it could be seen that he was not very old. How could he become like this?
"Some time ago, Director Song fainted while performing surgery. His head hit the operating table and he fell into a coma due to intracerebral hemorrhage. Because the family members did not sign, the best time for the surgery was missed."
The young nurse said, "I remember now, the doctor who died suddenly on TikTok a while ago was him?!"
Aunt Sun nodded: "This incident did not have a good impact. The hospital barely saved the patient for the sake of its reputation, but..."
She pointed at Song Yuzhu's head and said, "Unless there is a miracle, you will never wake up in this lifetime."
“What a pity…” Those who study medicine know how amazing it is to be a chief surgeon, not to mention that he is only in his thirties.
There was a voice calling for the nurse outside, and the young nurse packed up her things and went out.
Aunt Sun sighed and continued to help Song Yuzhu wash her body. After washing, she said silently: "Director Song, you should have a good rest. I will come again tomorrow."
Song Yuzhu felt mixed emotions. It turned out that he was still "alive" but was no different from being dead.
Now there are two paths before him. If he works hard to go in the original direction, he may wake up from the hospital bed and continue to be a doctor. If he chooses the other path, "Director Song" may stay in the hospital bed forever.
Faced with a choice again, Song Yuzhu turned around without hesitation and ran towards the roaring train. He knew someone was waiting for him!
A white light gradually appeared in front of him. Song Yuzhu quickened his pace, getting closer and closer. Finally, he broke through the darkness and opened his eyes.
"Zhao Xiao!" Song Yuzhu suddenly sat up from the bed.
Zhao Xiao, who was standing beside him, had red eyes and held his hand tightly, saying, "Yuzhu, you're awake."
Song Yuzhu threw herself into his arms and hugged his neck tightly: "How many days did I sleep this time?"
"Not long, only five days. We will be in Hangzhou tomorrow."
"Fortunately, I didn't miss the last stop."
