Chapter 202: Pushing the limits

There are not many insects on the island that know medical skills.

What's more, the equipment here is very simple and we can only use gauze to stop the bleeding.

Limp searched everywhere for the relevant medicine, but in the end he only found a few rolls of dry cotton cloth, but this was also a blessing.

Horas and Xie Si cooperated to put Eastman on the stretcher, trying their best not to touch his body. Even so, he still wailed, and blood and tears fell together.

The next process of wrapping the pig with gauze was like slaughtering a pig. Limp covered his ears and couldn't bear to watch it anymore.

Xie Si wanted to do it himself, but finally found that he couldn't do it at all.

Heras took the gauze with disdain and worked so quickly that Eastman couldn't even tell where it hurt because he felt pain all over his body.

Eventually, the pain nerves seem to become numb.

Eastman fell backwards, exhausted.

Heras skillfully tightened the last circle of gauze, and the bleeding seemed to have stopped for a moment, but the injured area was too large, and before long, a dark red color appeared under the snow-white gauze.

Eastman stared at Xie Si, his lips were blue, and he was tied up like a mummy. "Why are you crying? I don't feel any pain. I can't feel anything at all."

Xie Si turned his head away silently, and his tears fell on Eastman's neck.

Eastman was burned and couldn't avoid it. He could only wait for the warmth to slide down his neck.

"Itchy... to death..."

"What are you going to do?"

Limp looked at the sky outside and felt that the aircraft would not be able to return for a while. Most of the insects on the aircraft needed to be settled, and those female soldiers might not have the opportunity to return immediately after arriving.

"If the bleeding can be stopped, Xie Si and I can take him out, but if the bleeding cannot be stopped, he might die on the way..."

The gauze has been dyed bright red.

Xie Si wanted to block it with his hand, but he was worried that he would press on his wound.

It was already dark outside.

Limp looked at Eastman on the ground thoughtfully: "You can go and look for those creatures with ten tentacles and shield-shaped bodies in the sea. They are active at night."

"If you can find it, maybe you can get some hemostatic medicine. There is a piece of white bone inside this thing. Grinding it into powder has a very good hemostatic effect."

Limp was not sure whether there were cuttlefish in this time and space, nor was he sure whether cuttlefish would develop other characteristics after the drastic changes in the environment and lose the hemostatic effect of cuttlefish bones in their bodies.

Xie Si had already stood up and walked into the night.

Seeing this, Heras shook his head and followed.

"You stay here and watch over him. If there are any other emergencies, you will be in charge."

Limp sat cross-legged beside Eastman and noticed that his eyelids were about to close.

"Wake up."

Eastman looked at him unhappily: "How dare you bully the injured, you bug? Let me rest for a while... maybe I'll be fine soon. I feel so tired and sleepy now."

The sound became softer and softer, and the breath gradually became weaker.

Limp rolled his eyes.

What do you mean just take a break?

Maybe he would die immediately after resting for a while.

The worse this is, the more I can't sleep.

"Why don't you chat with me? I'm a bit bored. When did you hook up with Xie Si? She's in the army every day, how could you kidnap her?"

Eastman didn't want to pay any attention to him.

"Of course it's because I'm handsome and elegant, and Xie Si fell in love with me at first sight. Don't bother me, I want to sleep now."

Limp smiled and said, "You're not as good-looking as me. How can you call this handsome?"

Eastman was now sober.

"Why, you're just so ugly! Compared to me... are you attracted to Xie Si?"

"Beast, does Heras know?"

Limp reached out and pinched his free-moving mouth.

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm just curious. You don't seem like the type to just sit back and relax. Xie Si is also quite strong. How did you two get to know each other?"

"Uh...Mmm--let go!"

"What do you mean by very strong? Xie Si's personality is first-rate!"

Eastman heard words he didn't like again and lost all desire to sleep.

If I could move, I would have to get up and talk to Limp right now.

"You should take care of your Heras and stop spreading rumors about Xie Si."

Limp raised his eyebrows in doubt.

How could a bug with a good personality get to a position similar to Heras among the military females?

Most of the female soldiers are martial artists, and competitions between them occur all year round.

They only worship the strong.

Without some real strength, you won't be able to gain a foothold; with too good a temper, you won't be respected.

Although they are relatively respectful to male insects under social requirements and laws, the aggressiveness required of them by war means that these insects simply cannot be like sheep.

"You don't understand. Xie Si was in a feverish period at the time. He couldn't take his eyes off me. What could I do? Of course..."

The door opened.

Limp's eyes fell on the door.

Both Heras and Xie Si were soaked.

It was obvious that he had hurried back, with six damp buckets in his hands. The buckets were surging with water, as if they had life and were colliding with each other.

The two bugs were in a hurry to come back. If they walked back, their clothes would be dried by the wind.

"Did you find it?"

Heras showed a bit of embarrassment: "There are many that look similar to what you said, but... they don't seem to be of the same species."

Limp looked down.

Everything went dark.

Octopuses, squids, and cuttlefish mingled together, their tentacles entangled in their slimy bodies, struggling and attacking each other.

"Hurry up and separate them."

Limp rolled up his sleeves, took a fancy to a squid, and when he reached out to grab it, he was bitten by the octopus next to him.

He hissed in pain.

When Heras pulled his hand over to look at it, he found that the skin of Limp's hand was smooth and clean, and there was no so-called wound at all: "Don't shout, it has healed."

He and Xie Si picked out the few that Limp wanted and picked up the bucket to dump the things.

"Don't move. We'll need the rest."

Limp quickly peeled the squid, scratched it lightly a few times, and took out what he wanted.

A piece of hard white bone.

"Grind it into powder and sprinkle it on the wound to stop the bleeding. To be on the safe side, you can also let him drink some water soaked with the powder."

Limp glanced at Eastman lying on the ground: "Don't let him fall asleep."

Both Heras and Xie Si have experienced this.

Eastman looked at him helplessly, feeling that he was being abused.

But the effect is still significant. Although blood is still oozing out, the rate of leakage has obviously slowed down a lot, and the small wounds seem to be healing slightly.

If that's the case, maybe we can make it to the aircraft.

Xie Si swayed and sat down next to Eastman's stretcher.

Limp and Heras left time for the two of them, and at the same time, they did not forget to remind Shes not to let Eastman fall asleep.

As soon as the two annoying bugs left, Eastman became restless: "Can you lie down next to me? It's a little cold."

Xie Si bandaged his lips and lay down with his back to Eastman.

"I want you to hold me."

An arm loosely encircled Eastman.

Xie Si had to turn his head back and look into the eyes of Eastman, who was ordered not to sleep.

"Bedtime story."

"You are not allowed to sleep." Despite saying this, Xie Si still opened the light computer that could not connect to the star network and found some news to read.

"Can you... kiss me?"

The wound on Eastman's face was not serious. Xie Si took a towel and wiped it off to remove the dirt that had splashed on it.

In Eastman's expectant eyes——

She backhanded and pinched his face.
