Chapter 306: Sing a Song

Some people are strong only in the words they speak.
Some people are strong mentally.
Bai Muchuan was a man of iron will.
Looking at his injury, it was more serious than Xiang Wan.
To be exact, his injury was much graver than hers.
How did he manage to hold on for so long that he could even talk and laugh?
The wind in the forest got stronger.
The flames clattered on the fire like beekeepers’ beehives…
Everyone kept quiet.
Cheng Zheng looked especially calm.
He knew Bai Muchuan since long ago and understood him better than anyone else.
The more serious a wound was, the more relaxed and calm he would be.
This was because he was the leader of them all.
Everyone believed in him and depended on him mentally as though he provided them support…
He needed to endure the pain as though it was nothing, no matter how much pain he was experiencing.
He was bearing the hope for the whole team, a hope that everyone could get out of this creepy forest alive.
Cheng Zheng cut the sleeves slowly to check the injuries. When he heard Tang Yuanchu’s gasps, he squinted his eyes slowly as well. “The bullet’s still inside. We have to remove it immediately!”
The bullet is inside?
Everyone was shocked by that.
The way Cheng Zheng put it was too calm.
Like there was some food stuck between the teeth and he just needed a toothpick to remove it.
Nonetheless, everyone there knew that removing a bullet was not an easy operation…
At this place where there was the risk of being infected with the natural-focal disease and the lack of anesthetic, it was certainly difficult to perform such an operation.
“Heavens! It’s so serious? Will it be okay to remove the bullet here?”
Xiang Wan’s heart clenched tightly. She felt goosebumps all over her while hearing all these. Her scalp was numb and she wanted to get closer to look at Bai Muchuan.
However, before she could stand up, Bai Muchuan already turned around with a look of disapproval.
“Don’t come over!”
Xiang Wan: “…”
Why couldn’t she look at his injuries?
She spoke in a low tone, “What’s that for?”
Bai Muchuan had a look of indifference. “It’s just a small injury! If you’re near me, I might feel nervous!”
“… What are you nervous about?”
Would she eat him up?
She would only show her concern!
Xiang Wan looked at him in confusion while Bai Muchuan puffed a sigh.
“Don’t look at me like that… I might give in… and get soft-hearted!”
“…”
Was there a need to say all these?
Xiang Wan really had to salute him!
Even at this moment, he could joke around.
Due to his jokes, the nervous atmosphere was not as tense as earlier.
Everyone started to smile and cracked jokes with one another. Bai Muchuan winked at Xiang Wan proudly before talking to Quan Shaoteng.
“Laowu, you arrange for some men to go scout the area. Don’t walk too far away! Each person should not be more than 50 meters apart and have to look out for each other. If you have any food, do take it out and let everyone eat some!”
Now that he mentioned food…
Everyone started to feel hungry.
Bai Muchuan and his elite team had entered the forest for a long time, but they had not eaten anything since then.
When Quan Shaoteng led a team into the forest, they were prepared.
They had food and water with them.
It was just that in order to cater for firepower, they did not bring too much food and water.
“A little for everyone!”
“Give a little more for the female comrades!”
“Come! Take this.”
“Think of this as outdoor survival training.”
Bai Muchuan saw that Quan Shaoteng took some food for him, but he waved his hands to reject them.
“I’m not hungry!” he said in a carefree tone, “I’m fit so I shouldn’t waste food. Laowu, if the situation later is not favorable, you gotta remember…”
“Enough!” Hearing him reminding Quan Shaoteng about all these matters to take heed of, Cheng Zheng couldn’t help furrowing his eyebrows in displeasure. “You sound like you’re talking about your will. It’s just a removal of a bullet, you won’t die!”
“… Can’t you say something nice?” Bai Muchuan glared at him then waved to Quan Shaoteng. “That’s all for now, go get cracking.”
Quan Shaoteng shrugged with his hands stretched out. “I actually wanted to hear your will.”
Bai Muchuan scoffed. “Just scram!”
The daily bickering between them was filled with love and warmth. Cheng Zheng did not utter a word as he took the medicine box and put it on the edge of the fire pit.
“Mei Xin!”
“I’m here!” Mei Xin knew that he needed help and hurried over. “Captain Cheng.”
“Disinfection!”
“Okay.”
As the disciple, these were the basic and necessary lessons.
Mei Xin was familiar with all the procedures. Cheng Zheng took a glance before looking at Bai Muchuan then he called for Tang Yuanchu and Ding Yifan.
“You two come and help too!”
Both of them were baffled, but they cooperated nonetheless.
“What is it, Captain Cheng?”
Cheng Zheng took a pair of medical gloves and wore them before pointing at Bai Muchuan while facing them both. “Restrain him. Don’t let him move or struggle during the operation!”
Tang Yuanchu’s eyes widened. “…”
Ding Yifan’s mouth remained agape for a few seconds. “…”
Both of them looked at Bai Muchuan as though frozen on the spot.
Bai Muchuan grunted impatiently. “No need for such trouble, I can take it!”
“You may be able to take it now,” sneered Cheng Zheng, “but when the time comes, the pain will be indescribable.”
There was a limit to a man’s threshold of pain.
A tolerant or strong man was still made of flesh and bones after all. The moment the pain exceeded the limit, it would be hard to say if one could withstand it…
To Bai Muchuan, Cheng Zheng had used the basic understanding of the ordinary people with regards to pain. He was not too pleased with that as his face seemed dark as charcoal.
“You don’t believe me?” He patted on his arm a few times. “Try me!”
“I believe you, but I don’t believe in humans. Unless you’re not human.”
Cheng Zheng’s face seemed cold. As always, there wasn’t any expression in it at all.
“Hurry up! Restrain him!” he said in a serious tone.
“…”
“I’m the doctor!”
“Alright!”
It should be right to listen to the doctor.
Although Tang Yuanchu and Ding Yifan were a little afraid of Bai Muchuan, they felt that Cheng Zheng’s words were reasonable enough.
When the pain was excruciating enough and he started to struggle, who would know where the knife might hit?
The two of them got closer to Bai Muchuan with each taking a side.
“Captain Bai, let’s listen to the doctor, okay?”
Bai Muchuan grunted. “…”
…
The wound on his arm was a ghastly sight.
It was bloody red and the part where the bullet entered looked as though it was badly mutilated.
It was only at this moment did Xiang Wan realize that Bai Muchuan was much more heavily wounded than her…
The wound on her leg could actually be classified as external wound whereas Bai Muchuan’s flesh contained a bullet—
Moreover, Xiang Wan seriously felt the bullet that hit Bai Muchuan was the one that brushed past her thigh!
She analyzed the angle of the bullet and their posture at that moment… the possibility was too high.
He had gotten hurt because of her!
She decided to get her doubts cleared. “You got that wound when you dashed to save me, right?”
“How would I know?” Bai Muchuan’s tone did not change as he smiled casually. “I didn’t feel any pain back then. Aren’t you the same?”
Xiang Wan’s face turned pale. “…”
She suddenly felt like crying while looking at the back view of the man who saved her.
The feeling of being protected moved her.
As well as a feeling of sweet helplessness to the man who protected her so well…
This man had treated her like a baby.
How could she be his woman if she could not tolerate such wounds?
Xiang Wan looked at those few people who stayed beside Bai Muchuan. She didn’t like the feeling of being an outsider when he was in so much pain.
“Is there anything I can do to help? I’m feeling nervous if I don’t do something…”
She really wanted to do something for him. She wanted to relieve the sadness she was feeling inside her at that moment…
Bai Muchuan did not look at her. His gaze was looking at the endless darkness, but his voice was gentler than earlier. “Sing a song for me.”
