Chapter 1359: The Story of Ling and Heng (622)
Feng Ling’s eyes trembled and she looked at the old lady’s eyes. “Granny, you…”
The old lady raised her hand to signal her not to be anxious.
“Not long ago, there was indeed a young man who was rushed here by the river. He was seriously injured, and there were no good doctors in this town. I saw that he was unconscious, but he looked Asian. I don’t know which country he came from, but he was sent to an old doctor’s home. It has been a few days, and I haven’t paid much attention to him, but he should still be alive. If someone died here, everyone would know.”
“There hasn’t been any news for so many days. He should still be unconscious, but he’s not dead…”
“Where is he?” Feng Ling’s eyes were full of gratitude.
The old lady saw her anxious look and understood. She did not say much. “The doctor doesn’t like to communicate with strangers. You guys don’t speak the same language. Let me take you there.”
Feng Ling was really grateful. She thanked the granny several times before stepping forward to support the old lady.
This small town was neither big nor small. The old lady didn’t walk fast. Feng Ling was anxious and didn’t rush her. She patiently supported her until they arrived at the doctor’s home. Although the old lady came from China, she had lived here for her whole life and was considered a respectable old lady. She went in and spoke to the doctor for a while before the doctor let them in.
As she walked into the room, the old lady turned back and said to Feng Ling, “Your friend is seriously injured. He has a broken leg and seems to have been poisoned by some chemical. It has affected his central nervous system. Although he has woken up, his reaction is slow. He hasn’t recovered yet.”
Feng Ling’s expression did not change, but her heart tightened. The pain caused her entire body to feel sharp.
A broken leg?
The old woman saw that she didn’t speak, but her face turned pale. She patted her hand comfortingly. “It’s inside. Go in and take a look. I’ll go inform the people here. They are very wary of outsiders. I’ll let them lower their guard against you. Otherwise, it won’t be convenient for you to do anything here.”
“Thank you.” Feng Ling thanked her and quickly walked in.
It was an old building. The light was not very bright. When Feng Ling entered, she could smell a strange medicinal scent. The people here seemed to know some Chinese medicine, but she didn’t know what it was mixed with. It just didn’t smell good.
After entering, she saw a thin man lying there. She could hear his heavy and uncomfortable breathing. Feng Ling stood by the door and recognized him.
It was K!
Feng Ling quickly walked over, leaned over the bed, and looked at the person on the bed. K’s face was so thin that he was almost emaciated. His eyes were listless, and it seemed that his reactions were much slower. One of his legs was under the quilt, while the other was empty.
Feng Ling’s heart trembled and her hands were almost unstable. She forced herself to control her emotions and looked at the person whose eyes were gradually becoming more focused, as though he had finally recognized her.
“Feng… Ling?” K looked surprised, but his expression and movements were slow. It seemed that even speaking was difficult.
“It’s me, K!” Feng Ling’s eyes were burning. She quickly held his hand. “You can recognize me!”
K looked at her in a daze. Then he seemed to have thought of something and suddenly sighed with a smile. “I actually… can still live… I saw someone I know…”
“What nonsense are you talking about? The people in the base have been looking for you. Even though everyone thinks that you won’t have a chance to survive, they have been looking for you. And our sniper team, we also came out to look for you. Didn’t I find you?” Feng Ling held his hand tightly. “It doesn’t matter if one of your legs is gone, as long as you’re still alive! There are many members in our base who were seriously injured when they went on missions. Look, aren’t they still in the base? As long as they’re alive, everything is fine!”
“Don’t comfort me.” K smiled weakly and then frowned. “I’m like this now… It’s no different from dying…”
“Don’t speak nonsense!”
K looked at her again and seemed to have thought of something. His eyes suddenly darkened. “Have you found Boss?”
Feng Ling couldn’t hold back the smile in her eyes and her expression stiffened.
Looking at her expression, K sighed and closed his eyes. “It’s all my fault. Originally… Boss could have escaped with his life… He saved me… Then… at the waterfall, Boss caught me, but we were too weak. I asked him to let go… he didn’t…”
“Boss fell down with me. At that time, Boss’s injuries were even more serious than mine… After falling down… I don’t know if we were washed out by that river. At that time, the river was too turbulent, and Boss and I both fainted… Later, I didn’t know why I woke up here. I don’t understand what the people here are saying, but it seems like they saved me. But I can’t ask where Boss is. Since you can find me, have you found Boss?” K used almost all of his strength to say these words. He also held Feng Ling’s hand tightly, hoping to hear some good news.
He was indeed washed down by the waterfall.
But if that was the case, Li Nanheng might have already died in the rapid river in the jungle, or he might have been stopped by some rocks or seaweed in the water, unable to escape together, or… there were all sorts of possibilities.
Feng Ling endured the pain of her heart and slowly shook her head.
K closed his eyes painfully. “It’s all my fault. It’s all my fault… I shouldn’t have been so impulsive… Boss wouldn’t have…”
“All right, let’s not talk about this. It’s enough that you’re still alive.” Feng Ling held his hand. “I’ll go look for him. Do you remember Rogers Snow Mountain? There was almost no chance of him surviving the ice cavity, but even then, his life force and perseverance won’t allow him to die just like that. I’ll find him. Don’t worry, rest well. Don’t think too much.”
K looked at him with bloodshot eyes. “Feng Ling…”
Feng Ling said coldly, “Don’t tell me how badly he was injured. Since you’re still alive, he can still live. Even if he is more seriously injured than you, even if his limbs are broken, he is stupid, and disabled, I will still find him and bring him back!”
K choked and didn’t speak for a long time. He just closed his eyes and nodded.
