Today is the second day of the base's opening. The base, which had been dead for nearly a month, has now regained its vitality. In particular, the appearance of mutant chickens and sheep and the confirmation of their edibility have given many people a new direction.
Stop looking for supplies and go hunting!
Therefore, many people were preparing for tomorrow's hunting that night. It was still early in the night, and when walking in the streets and alleys, one could hear the sounds of many people talking and busying about this.
Ye Xiao listened to these sounds all the way out of the densely populated residential area and moved forward in the darkness. Occasionally someone passed by him, but he was completely unaware that there was another person next to him.
Ye Xiao walked back to the villa without calling for any help. Everyone in the villa had already gone to bed. Everyone believed in Ye Xiao's ability and no one would worry about him even if he did not return home all night.
He went upstairs quietly, returned to his room, closed the door, leaned against the wall and took a deep breath.
Then he looked at his wound. He was injured on the left side of his chest. His clothes were completely burnt and stuck to his skin. The clothes were originally black, and now his skin was also black. There was very little blood flowing because the blood vessels were all burnt and no blood could flow out.
He used his supernatural powers to cut the fabric around the edge of the wound, then took off his clothes. He was just thinking about how to treat the wound when he heard a cautious knock on the door behind him, followed by a small voice: "Ye Xiao? Are you there?"
Ye Xiao paused and opened the door a little. Sure enough, he saw Lin Tantan sleeping outside with her hair messy. However, she looked worried at the moment. As soon as the door opened, she looked at Ye Xiao nervously: "I smell burning and blood. It seems to be coming from you."
As she spoke, she smelled the two odors on Ye Xiao's body. She simply pulled up the door panel and pushed it inside, and she could see Ye Xiao's entire body.
His body is long and lean, without exaggerated muscles. The texture of each muscle is just right. Not only does he look good, but he also possesses unimaginable power.
However, at this moment, his handsome upper body had a black spot on the left side of his chest.
Lin Tantan's heart almost stopped beating: "You, you, you..."
She moved too quickly, and Ye Xiao didn't stop her from squeezing in. Worried that she would wake up others, he quickly pulled her in and closed the door.
Lin Tan Tan was almost going crazy: "How did you get hurt! Was this caused by a fire-type mutant? Who was it? Ouch, go lie down on the bed, I'll heal you."
Ye Xiao raised his hand and pressed her: "Don't get excited, it just looks serious."
"What do you mean it only looks serious? Your injury is a little concave. How many ribs are broken? Stop talking and lie down!" Lin Tantan suddenly became smart: "Or I'll call for help!"
Ye Xiao had no choice but to walk to the bedside and asked again: "Is your hand okay?"
"I feel much better after a good sleep, stop talking nonsense!"
Ye Xiao had no choice but to listen to her and lie down on the bed. Sitting was not an option, and leaning was not an option either. Lin Tan Tan said that it would affect her ability to observe the fractured ribs.
A few hours ago, it was Ye Xiao who was pressuring her to obey him, but now the roles were completely reversed. Ye Xiao felt helpless and a little amused.
Lin Tan Tan was not as relaxed as he was. She looked carefully at Ye Xiao's wound, which was as big as her two palms. It was completely black and red, and the clothes had merged with the wound. The most terrible thing was that at least three or four ribs were broken, horribly concave inward, and had already pressed on the heart. If the injury was any more serious, the heart would have been crushed.
She was so angry, this is called "only looks serious"?
How did he act as if nothing had happened and try to hide it from others? If it wasn't an inappropriate time, she would have jumped up and beaten him up.
She glared at him fiercely: "All this flesh of yours may be scrapped. Oh, never mind, I'll connect your ribs first. Just bear with it, it will hurt." She discovered with her special ability that the ribs were broken, but not completely separated, and there was no such terrible thing as the broken ends piercing the heart or lungs.
She sent out a wooden strap to pull the ribs back to their normal position. The sound of bones rubbing against each other could be heard faintly, which made people's teeth ache. At the same time, blood began to flow from Ye Xiao's wound.
Lin Tan Tan quickly input his special abilities to promote the union of the broken ribs, and at the same time promote the growth and healing of the attached muscles to fix the shape. For a while, he was so busy that he was sweating profusely and his expression was extremely serious.
Ye Xiao endured the pain, breathing a little heavily, but his expression remained the same as usual. He tried his best to keep his breathing steady and let the rise and fall of his chest become calm so as not to affect the treatment. He looked at her with a bit of amusement: "Don't worry, take your time."
"Ye Xiao, if you keep doing this, I'll beat you up." Lin Tantan couldn't stand it any longer. "You told me to take care of my body, but what about you? I'll really beat you up!"
Ye Xiao shut his mouth decisively.
Lin Tan Tan glared at him fiercely again, looking like he wanted to bite him, and continued to pull the remaining ribs.
As she moved, blood continued to flow out, sliding down Ye Xiao's body and staining the bed red.
Lin Tan Tan tried to speed up his movements as much as possible and released his supernatural powers without spending any money. It took him more than 20 minutes to reconnect the four broken ribs. He looked left and right, squatted down and looked straight ahead to see if the shape and height were consistent with the right side.
After confirming it was almost done, she exhaled and wiped the sweat from her forehead: "It should be fine. I don't do this often, so I shouldn't have made any mistakes. If you still find that the shape of your chest is not right in the future, I can fix it for you."
He felt a little guilty when he said this, but Ye Xiao didn't care and smiled and said, "Okay."
Lin Tantan covered the wound with her entire right hand five centimeters above it, continuously releasing her supernatural powers. The bright red muscle filaments began to grow and multiply visibly. She said, "I have to go back and get the crystal core later."
The injury was too severe, and even the energy stored in her body was not enough to consume it.
Ye Xiao said: "There is a crystal core in the bedside table, it's a wood type."
"Hmm?" Lin Tantan stopped the treatment, opened the bedside table and saw that there were indeed many green crystal cores.
These crystal cores were all of excellent quality, emerald green, with a clear and clean texture. Lin Tantan knew at a glance that they were level two crystal cores. There were also a few level three ones. She directly took a level three and absorbed it: "Why do you store so many wood crystal cores?"
"I brought it back because it looked good. I wanted to give it to you."
Lin Tantan was slightly stunned and looked at Ye Xiao. If his tone and expression were not so frank, she would have thought too much.
Ye Xiao looked at his wound. It was charred black just now, but now it was bright red.
He leaned against the bed and sat up. Lin Tantan said quickly, "Be careful."
Ye Xiao leaned carefully against the headboard and smiled, "I feel much better."
"Of course it feels much better now that the bones are no longer pressing on your heart." Lin Tan Tan examined the wound carefully. "The ribs have been reattached, but they are bones after all. They won't heal quickly. Even if I treat you every day, it will take many days. Now I'm starting to promote muscle growth around the ribs, which will also take some time. Let's take our time."
Ye Xiao said to Lin Tan Tan: "Tan Tan, thank you."
"Thank you, but how did you get hurt?"
Ye Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly: "The other party is already dead, so it's better not to talk about it."
Lin Tan Tan really wanted to hit him, but since he didn't want to say it, she didn't force him to ask. He was so seriously injured but he wanted to hide it from everyone and deal with it himself, which showed that he didn't want to tell anyone about it.
"By the way, you can't go out tomorrow with such an injury." She repeated what he had said to her before.
Before Ye Xiao could say anything, she continued, "My hands are still shaking. If you don't stay home to recuperate tomorrow, I'll go out too. And I won't listen to you anymore."
This threat was very significant. Ye Xiao smiled and said, "Okay."
Ye Xiao suddenly heard something and gestured to her to speak separately. Then the knock on the door sounded again. This time it was Bai Cheng from next door: "Ah Xiao, are you hurt? I smell blood."
Lin Tantan glanced at the blood on the bed sheet and turned away with an innocent look on his face. Ye Xiao said, "Well, I accidentally cut my hand while practicing my supernatural powers. It's okay."
Lin Tan Tan thought to himself, what kind of excuse is this? He cut his hand while practicing superpowers. Will anyone believe this?
However, Bai Cheng actually believed it. He stood outside for a moment and said, "Okay, be careful." Then he left.
Lin Tantan was extremely surprised, but Ye Xiao knew that Bai Cheng did not believe it, but knew that Bai Cheng did not want to tell the truth and did not want him to come in, so he stopped forcing him.
Each of them has their own space, and they can entrust their lives to each other, but they pay attention to maintaining a certain degree in their daily interactions and keep a relatively comfortable distance from each other.
Only Lin Tantan would barge in so carelessly, pressuring him for treatment and even saying he would beat him... Well, it seemed like he treated her the same way.
Ye Xiao couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth. Lin Tan looked at him strangely. Why did he suddenly laugh?
…
As for Zhou Li, his arm had been bandaged and was being treated by a wood-type mutant. However, this person was not Lin Tan Tan and had no good way to treat such a serious injury, so it was still a question whether the hand could heal. It would be best to reattach it through surgery.
Zhou Li's face turned pale due to excessive blood loss. He looked at Zhou Yan's body. Half of his head was cut off, but there was no sadness on his face. Firstly, it was because he knew who did it, and secondly, he just realized that Zhou Yan actually had superpowers.
He had fire powers but he kept them from him. What on earth was he trying to do? His younger brother was far from honest.
He said expressionlessly, "Pack it up and take it with you when you leave the base tomorrow."
The body was quickly put into a bag, but no one noticed that the corpse's hand trembled.
