Chapter 68 - 68 The Living Dead
68 The Living Dead
After Leng Ye died, the 500 suicide soldiers were surrounded by them. Not long after, they were cleared out.
Bai Wutong carried Chu Tianbao and examined him carefully.
His pulse was abnormal. His face was pale and his body was cold. There were no external injuries on his body. He was clearly unconscious because of serious internal injuries.
She did not know how to treat internal injuries at all, and their team did not have a doctor. No matter how calm Bai Wutong was, she was still panicking at this moment.
It was as if something had slipped away from her hand. It was even more maddening that she could not grab it even if she wanted to.
Qingfeng was also seriously injured from fighting Leng Ye. One of her arms hung weakly. She walked to Bai Wutong and said to it, “Help him up. I’ll transfer internal energy to him.”
Bai Wutong did not hesitate to help Chu Tianbao up. Qingfeng also sat down cross-legged and placed a hand on Chu Tianbao’s back.
After a while, Qingfeng’s face turned pale as she forced herself to inject internal energy into Chu Tianbao.
Lin Yue rushed over and realized that if Qingfeng injected any more internal energy into Chu Tianbao, her body could not take it and she would die.
He quickly pulled her hand away and sat down to inject internal energy into Chu Tianbao.
His internal energy was far inferior to Qingfeng’s. After a while, his expression became even uglier than Qingfeng’s.
When the Dark Guards Team and Lin Yue’s subordinates returned from killing the enemies, they hurriedly sat down and injected internal energy into Chu Tianbao’s body.
Their act of injecting internal energy into Chu Tianbao was something that Bai Wutong had no knowledge about at all. She asked Qingfeng uneasily, “Why isn’t it enough?”
So many people here had already injected their internal energy into Chu Tianbao.
Qingfeng glanced at Chu Tianbao, who was still pale, and said, “He didn’t replenish the internal energy that he had lost previously. Just now, he forcefully overdrafted his internal energy. His body is like a dried up sea now. If he can’t replenish it, even if he wakes up, it will affect his lifespan.”
Chu Tianbao had never exhausted his internal energy like that day. The last time was before Bai Wutong found him.
Bai Wutong suddenly frowned. “If his internal energy is replenished, he will be fine, right?”
Qingfeng coughed softly with a pale face and shook her head. “Not necessarily. Moreover, I’m afraid everyone’s internal energy is not enough for him to use. Whether he can wake up or not is a problem. He might become a living dead.”
The living dead were equivalent to a modern-day vegetable. In this era, there were no equipment that could treat them. What should she do!!!
Bai Wutong’s face turned pale as she turned to look at the 30 families of Qinghe.
With so many people, there must be someone with strong martial arts and inner strength who could save Chu Tianbao.
But what could she offer in exchange?
Suddenly, Bai Wutong glanced at Yang Quanzi and had a flash of inspiration.
Qinghe was the second hometown of scholars. If the printing technique could further popularize books, it would definitely tempt them.
Bai Wutong walked straight to Cui Shize and said to him solemnly, “Prime Minister Cui, I can make books copy more than ten million times faster. Can you do me a favor first?”
If it was true, it would be a great favor to all the scholars in the world.
When Yang Quanzi heard this, his narrowed eyes widened. If Bai Wutong hadn’t asked Cui Shize, he would have nodded crazily.
Cui Shize was confused and subconsciously asked, “What favor?”
Bai Wutong looked at the 30 people behind him and clenched her fists. “My husband needs to inject a large amount of internal energy to save his life. If everyone can help him inject internal energy, I’ll draw a blueprint for you now.”
Even if Bai Wutong did not draw a blueprint for them, Cui Shize would definitely get someone to save Chu Tianbao. However, Bai Wutong said that it could increase the speed of copying books by a million times. Not to mention him, even his teacher could not reject such a temptation.
Bai Wutong had already taken out a charcoal brush and started drawing. Cui Shize did not delay and quickly gathered Cui Shiji.
When the two brothers met, Cui Shize’s first words were, “Brother, quickly help save him.”
“…” ???
Cui Shiji was confused. Cui Shize hurriedly explained the matter to him. Cui Shiji’s gaze landed on Bai Wutong, who was drawing a blueprint. His eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately said to the Cui family’s expert, “Hurry up and help Master Chu inject some internal energy!”
Not long after, the Cui family sent out a hundred experts. Only then did Lin Yue and the others stop.
The experts of the Cui family collectively injected their internal energy into Chu Tianbao. They realized that Chu Tianbao’s body was like a huge hole that could not be filled. He absorbed as much as he could, as if he wanted to squeeze them dry.
Not long after, this group of people were also pale and sweating.
Cui Shize and Cui Shiji were shocked. This, this, this… Even this didn’t work. Could there be a monster hidden in Chu Tianbao’s body?
Cui Shize looked at Cui Shiji and said anxiously, “Brother, you have to save Master Chu. He’s our savior!”
Cui Shiji nodded and went to call over another hundred experts from the Cui family.
After a change of people, Chu Tianbao finally had some color in his face.
Qingfeng checked his body and said to Bai Wutong, “His meridians are already normal. It depends on when he can wake up.”
Bai Wutong’s eyes were filled with joy as he asked, “There won’t be any other repercussions, right?”
“Repercussions?”
“Like a problem that affects your lifespan or weakness.”
Qingfeng came to a realization. It sounded quite appropriate to call it repercussion. She shook her head and said, “Probably not. I’ve already made up for the losses.” She glanced at Chu Tianbao’s flushed face. They had probably made up for it a little too much.
Bai Wutong immediately heaved a sigh of relief. She laid Chu Tianbao flat and placed the bag on the back of his head. She smiled brightly at Qingfeng and realized that her arm had not healed. Bai Wutong quickly stuffed the blueprint into Cui Lingyi’s arms and smiled. “This is the blueprint. Help me give it to your father. I’ll treat Qingfeng first.”
Qingfeng’s arm was fractured. Fortunately, it was not a comminuted fracture. Just as Bai Wutong was about to tear open her sleeve, Lin Yue shouted with a red face, “You can’t treat her here!”
Bai Wutong glanced around. They didn’t have a carriage. Where could they go if not here?
Also, why was Lin Yue so anxious?
Bai Wutong looked at him strangely. Lin Yue stammered, “She, she, just can’t.”
Bai Wutong suddenly looked at Qingfeng, her eyes sharp and imposing.
Eh, she was still acting so manly. Could she be recognized as a woman just by revealing one arm?
Lin Yue was so conservative. Which young lady would like such an uncivilized man?
Cui Lingyi glanced at Qingfeng, who was looking down in silence, and then at Lin Yue, whose face was red. Suddenly, she smiled meaningfully and said to Bai Wutong, “Use my carriage.” Then she said to Granny Wang, “Help her into the carriage.”
Cui Lingyi’s carriage belonged to a woman and was not easy to see through, but she was willing to let Qingfeng into it. Bai Wutong gave her a long look. From her smile, he could tell that she already knew that Qingfeng was a woman. She nodded and said to Qingfeng, “Then let’s go to the carriage.”
