Chapter 124
"Cough, cough..."
The man began to cough violently.
Other people lying in the truck bed also laughed, but the laughter didn't last long.
When the military truck stopped, Su Yang wanted to get up, but suddenly found his limbs weak, and a strong sense of exhaustion struck him instantly.
It felt as if all the bones in his body had been pulled out!
Su Yang remembered that he had just used Strength Explosion.
His Strength Explosion had lasted for a long time.
But people always have limits; no matter how long they persist, there is still a period of weakness.
He was wet, covered in sticky blood, his clothes were in tatters, and he was extremely uncomfortable.
The truck bed door was opened, and an emergency response team member who could still move showed off, jumping down directly, but he didn't stand steady and fell face-first.
"Quick, lift them up!"
Su Yang saw two strong women jump onto the truck bed and prop him up.
"What's wrong? Exhausted?"
Su Yang nodded: "Yes!"
"Want a bath?"
A woman shouted.
"How to wash?"
"We can help!"
"Uh... I won't wash!"
"Then I'll find you a man, but those men are rough..."
Su Yang insisted: "A man, then!"
Soon, two soldiers propped Su Yang up.
They carried him directly into the room, stripped off Su Yang's tattered clothes, put him in a bathtub filled with warm water, and helped Su Yang wash his body.
"Will it be too much trouble!"
A young soldier said: "It's okay, this is what we should do, you friends from the emergency response team have worked hard!"
Su Yang turned a bucket of hot water blood-red directly, and after changing three buckets of water, he was served by the two to put on pajamas.
They also brought food and fed Su Yang until he was full.
"We will all guard the door, if you need anything, just shout!"
"Hmm!"
The light was turned off, and the door closed slowly.
Su Yang could hear slight breathing.
Drowsiness struck, and Su Yang couldn't hold on for long, falling into a deep sleep.
On the south wall of Tongjiacheng, the City Lord of Tongjiacheng lit a cigarette for Captain Shen Yan of the Tenth Team.
Sitting on the city wall, Mu Mu Yuankai looked at the pitted ground below and said: "Captain Zhu, this time it's really thanks to that Su Yang!"
Deputy City Lord Bai Ming added: "Without him, our gold-grade beast tamers might have lost half more... If it weren't for him, our wall might have collapsed. I don't know what kind of pet that kid has, he flipped over more than ten Rock-Armor Giant Rhinos alive!"
"I didn't expect his Hell Blood Vine Flower to be so powerful. I knew his strength was strong, but I didn't expect this kid to have hidden some strength!"
Zhu Zhu Xiaoshuang smiled and looked at Mu Mu Yuankai, saying: "But our loss this time is still a bit big, especially your loss. Within two years, it will be difficult for you to recover, right?"
"It's okay, I can catch some ordinary platinum-grade beasts to make up for it. The beasts of Mount Mount Jinya don't riot every day. If they rioted every day, I would have taken people and moved away long ago!"
Shen Yan took a puff of his cigarette and muttered: "If I had known, I should have let Captain Yao get another emergency response team over!"
"Other teams have tasks too!" Zhu Zhu Xiaoshuang said in a low voice, "The Third and Eighth teams went to Shangqing City and haven't returned yet. They are estimated to stay there for a while. The Fifth and Sixth teams lost a lot of people last time, and their strength hasn't recovered yet... The Star-grade beast tamers of the Special Action Group are also rarely seen; they are probably busy with things too..."
"Don't say it, headache!"
Shen Yan spat, interrupting Zhu Zhu Xiaoshuang's words.
The next day, Su Yang woke up early.
After a sleep, he felt refreshed.
Even the weakness brought about after using Strength Explosion had disappeared.
It was probably because of the Earth Violent Bear's myth-grade talent, Indestructible Golden Body.
He pushed the door open, and the two standing guards immediately turned around, looking at Su Yang in surprise.
Su Yang remembered these two; they were the ones who helped him bathe yesterday.
"You're better?"
"Better!"
Su Yang walked out of the room, only to find that people were standing at the doors of the rooms of other emergency response team beast tamers.
He glanced at Xu Xu Jiutian's room; there was no one at the door, and the door seemed to be ajar.
Su Yang pushed the door open and found no one on the bed.
"Where is the one who lived inside?"
"That person was injured yesterday. He didn't want to go to the hospital, but we persuaded him to go..."
Not long after, some emergency response team members came out of their rooms.
They saw Su Yang and greeted him with a smile.
"Su Yang, yesterday I saw you couldn't even walk steadily, today you are full of life, you recovered very quickly!"
"Young people, they just have good bodies!"
"Young man, how many times a night can you do it?"
"Don't tease Su Yang, be careful that Su Yang gets angry and blows your head off. Yesterday Su Yang was so fierce, you didn't see it..."
"..."
Not long after, the food delivery arrived.
With the same sumptuous dishes, Su Yang squatted under the eaves with a small iron basin and wolfed it down.
He saw the hand of the senior who had just teased him holding the chopsticks shaking!
It was estimated that he hadn't recovered yet, and in the end, other soldiers fed him.
After breakfast, Deputy Captain Shi You appeared.
"The crisis in Tongjiacheng is temporarily lifted. There may be beasts appearing, but they shouldn't be able to make any waves. Our Seventh and Tenth emergency response teams will rest here for ten days first!"
Hearing the deputy captain's words, all members of the emergency response team breathed a sigh of relief.
Today was a good day, the sun shone on the earth, very warm.
After Shi You left, many members of the Seventh Team staying in the camp moved things from their rooms to the outside, basking in the sun while bragging.
They bragged about how brave they were in yesterday's battle and occasionally mentioned some companions who died in front of them.
When mentioning those people, they would fall silent.
Although they were in the emergency response team and were used to life and death, thinking of those comrades still made them feel uncomfortable.
"Where is Su Yang? Where did that kid run off to?"
"That kid was amazing yesterday! Those blood-red plant-type beasts were all his!"
"I also saw him flip over more than ten Rock-Armor Giant Rhinos by himself, and he was fine even when pressed against the city wall by a Rock-Armor Giant Rhino!"
"That kid is not here, he went out!"
"..."
On the second day of the Tongjiacheng defense battle, Xu Xu Jiutian ran back, limping.
"Xu Xu Jiutian, your injury hasn't healed yet, right? Why did you run back? Is it not good over there!"
"Not good, how is it not good? Life over there is great!" Xu Xu Jiutian laughed, "Every day there are beautiful little nurses taking care of you meticulously, whatever you want to eat, they feed you, it's simply a fairy life!"
"Since it's so comfortable over there, why did you run back?"
"Of course, I missed you guys!"
"..."
That night, Su Yang asked about the reason why Xu Xu Jiutian left the hospital.
Xu Xu Jiutian sat on a chair, put his legs on another chair, and looked at the stars in the sky, saying: "It's too miserable over there!"
"Some people are wrapped like rice dumplings, some have broken hands and legs, and some who were seriously injured died and were taken away in body bags... I don't like staying there."
