Cha Xiaodao had a long scar on his forehead that had already scabbed over, posing no serious problem.
Drops of water dripped from his chin.
Li Yan, lying on the ice, blinked and then uttered in surprise, “You’re not dead?”
Cha Xiaodao rolled his eyes, “You look much closer to death than .”
As they spoke, Li Yan sat up and looked far into the distance, the sea was scattered with huge fragnts of broken ice.
He stood up and said to Cha Xiaodao, “It’s precisely because I’m in such a sorry state that I thought you couldn’t have escaped your fate.”
Indeed, the final strike from Huang Jiuya’s monstrous form was more powerful than Li Yan had anticipated. If they hadn’t been above the Bohai Sea, if Li Yan hadn’t had the “Red Water Essence” item, if there hadn’t been only four beasts left when the black needle tide erupted…
Perhaps Li Yan would’ve had to use one or two of his own Ghost Chariot lives to kill Huang Jiuya…
Cha Xiaodao looked at the enormous demon corpse drifting at sea and chuckled bitterly, “What do you think you are, the Governor of Great Ming Town? Wouldn’t you have a brighter future fighting little monsters in Neon?”
“Ha ha ha~”
Li Yan laughed out loud, but he quickly noticed Cao Yongchang lying behind Cha Xiaodao.
“How is he?”
Li Yan asked Cha Xiaodao to lay the boy flat. As soon as Li Yan touched Cao Yongchang’s nose and felt no breath, he frowned deeply.
Cha Xiaodao shook his head, “He was hit with a poisoned needle in the neck, I gave him so detoxifying food early, but it’s still uncertain if he will co around.”
The physical constitution of Li Yan and Cha Xiaodao couldn’t be compared with that of Cao Yongchang.
With Cao Yongchang’s skinny arms and legs, even with the detoxifying food, whether he could survive was questionable.
Na: Cao Yongchang
Status: Neurological activity disorder (poisoned), acute upper respiratory obstruction (blood clot).
Without a second thought, Li Yan clenched his fist, opening a wound on his wrist, and poured his blood into Cao Yongchang’s mouth.
Cha Xiaodao blinked rapidly, “What are you doing?”
Li Yan showed him his newly acquired fourth-stage gene.
After Cha Xiaodao had seen it completely, he stamred, “So that’s like having blood that contains nanorobots that can perform surgery?”
Eagerly leaning in, “How about we join the Ghost Master in the future? Can you get a Destiny Yak too?”
Before he could finish, Cao Yongchang’s throat suddenly split open, fresh blood gushed out, and he opened his eyes widely to cough loudly, spitting out several mouthfuls of black blood. His breathing also beca smoother.
Following that, a twist of half-coagulated blood stretched out of the wound on Cao’s throat.
Using A Fleeting Glimpse, Li Yan garnered quite interesting information from this clump of semi-solidified blood.
Mitic Surgical Elents (Biological Drill)
Mitic Surgical Elents (Protein Degenerating Surgical Knife)
Mitic Surgical Elents (Cellular Forceps)
Mitic Surgical Elents (Muscle Contraction Stimulator)
…
Li Yan had so dical knowledge, and seeing that Cao Yongchang’s throat wound was still bleeding, he took a hollow plastic tube from his dical kit and inserted it into the wound.
The status of “acute upper respiratory” obstruction quickly disappeared.
The color of the “neurological activity disorder” caused by poisoning also continued to lighten, and only then did Li Yan nod in satisfaction.
What the Surgery Elent did was a relatively simple cricothyrotomy. Although it was only a surgery of general knowledge, it likely helped Li Yan understand the working principle of the Surgery Elent.
As Cha Xiaodao had said, it was akin to the concept of “nanorobots” proposed in the field of life sciences, except that it was not made of artificial materials, but rather so sort of symbiotic organism with humans.
Furthermore, once the Surgery Elent leaves Li Yan’s body for more than five hours, it will quickly degrade and die.
On the surface, “Surgery Elent” indeed sounds invincible and widely practical, but without a modern dical environnt, it also has considerable limitations. After all, the Surgery Elent can’t replace all modern dical equipnt and dicine.
For Li Yan, the most important function of the Surgery Elent is to suppress so awkward situations he occasionally encounters, like the malformation of regrown bones and blood vessels.
Or, for instance, inadequate growth and movent of flesh causing so bullet fragnts and weapon residues to remain inside Li Yan’s body, requiring a return to Yan Fu for proper care.
“`
This sa matter had occurred before in the Winter World, where Li Yan had faced it. In fact, the Black Star Chariot Task Force, which overly pursued explosive damage at the ti, could have diminished Li Yan’s combat power had they employed bullets made of strong toxic tals or poisons beforehand; he might not have been able to fight his way in and out as if he were in uninhabited territory.
“Where are Xing and the others?”
Li Yan asked.
Cha Xiaodao shook his head and added, “I didn’t find your horse either.”
Li Yan let out a sigh and walked to the edge of the ice, slowly closing his eyes.
Calamity Faction initiated!
Biological wavelengths of varying lengths swirled around Li Yan’s ears, flooding his mind with emotions such as fear, bloodlust, and hunger. With a muffled groan, a group of Yellowfin Tiger Fish hidden in the seabed mud suddenly scattered as if startled.
About four or five breaths later, Li Yan opened his eyes and dove headfirst into the sea. When he erged, he was holding a soaked person in each hand. After tossing them onto the ice, Li Yan dove back into the water. With the fish swarm patrolling, he eventually pulled up three people, including the ship’s chief mate and two sailors, onto the ice.
The Flying Thunder Horse, however, was nowhere to be found…
However, what Li Yan had brought up were only three icy corpses, their faces black and purple, their bodies riddled with nearly invisible tiny holes from being frozen in the icy water.
Li Yan searched Xing’s cold chest pocket for a long ti, finding nothing. Eventually, he found two pieces of gold that he had given Xing, hidden deep in the pocket of Xing’s young son Hei Ga. The gold, nestled deep, had not been washed away, with traces of blood still on it.
…
Jin Kou Port Mariti Governnt Office.
“A storm like last night’s on the sea cos perhaps once in fifty years. That Lord Governor survived such a fierce event must an he has great fortune coming.”
The local Chief Secretary Wang strolled with Li Yan through the shipyard, smiling broadly.
“Your tongue, Lord Wang, can really bring the dead back to life.”
Li Yan smiled warmly, “The matter I asked you to handle…”
“The bodies of Xing Kaishan and his family have already been sent back to Lian Port, and the court’s condolence money will not be shortchanged in the slightest,” Wang assured him.
Li Yan nodded and sighed, “You know, Xing Kaishan’s young son caught a big fat-headed fish on the way, sliced it open right in front of . Guess what?”
Chief Secretary Wang blinked, “Ah?”
“Inside the fish’s belly, there were four large gold ingots.”
“Oh my~ That’s…” Chief Secretary Wang grimaced, “No luck at all!”
“What do you think, Lord Wang, could I take advantage of their misfortune?”
“That you cannot,” replied Wang.
“So, Lord Wang, do a favor and return this gold to them.”
Li Yan pulled out a small cloth package and unveiled it, revealing four gleaming gold ingots.
Chief Secretary Wang took the gold, which totaled over fifty taels—more than a chief secretary’s salary for ten years, and even a fifth-ranked governor like him would have to save for five or six years without spending a di on anything else.
Was there really such a windfall from heaven?
He blinked for a long ti before saying, “Sir, I must speak out of turn, and I hope you won’t be displeased to hear it.”
“Speak.”
“This treasure bestowed by the Dragon King only burns the hands of those without virtue and luck. Moreover, since you were present when the fish was cut open, half of the gold rightfully belongs to you.”
Li Yan raised an eyebrow, “Half belongs to ?”
“Indeed, half is yours.”
The two n looked at each other and burst into laughter, but suddenly Li Yan stopped laughing, “Then should my half end up in Xing Kaishan’s ho?”
Chief Secretary Wang was startled, his mouth hanging open, speechless.
Li Yan patted his shoulder and said in a low voice, “Take good care of my half.”
With that, Li Yan turned and left.
