Chapter 42 Injured
A wolf-faced bat flies up close.I opened my mouth and bit at me, I gritted my teeth, and I picked up the pistol with no bullets and threw it at the wolf-faced bat viciously.

boom!The wolf-faced bat was hit hard, its face was sunken, and it fell to the ground with a puff. After struggling a few times, it stopped moving.

"Tuoba Gu, hurry up, don't love to fight!" Professor Ye called me from the front.

I kicked the dead bat out, turned around and ran forward, panting.

We are now out of ammunition and food, but behind us, at least dozens of wolf-faced bats are chasing after us.We have seen the ferocity of these wolf-faced bats, and we dare not stop at all. Once we stop, we will be gnawed into a pile of bones by wolf-faced bats. That kind of death is really cruel.

We don't know how far we ran. I felt like my legs were filled with lead, and they were so heavy that I couldn't move anymore.

I swallowed my saliva and said to Professor Ye: "It is not an option to continue running like this. It is only a matter of time before we are overtaken by wolf-faced bats. We need to find a way to escape!"

Professor Ye has traveled far and wide all his life, has seen many storms and waves, and brushed shoulders with death countless times. I believe he will definitely think of a way to escape successfully.

Without the threat of hot weapons, wolf-faced bats have no fear of us at all. They vented all their anger from being passively beaten before, and followed us closely, quickly shortening the distance between them and us.

Professor Ye suddenly pointed to the top of the plank road: "Take out the climbing rope quickly, we will hide in the pile of corpses!"

We have nowhere to escape now. Since Professor Ye said so, we will follow his orders.We each took out a climbing rope from the waterproof backpack. This kind of climbing rope is very advanced and looks similar to a flashlight when it is taken out.There's a button on it, and when you press it for the first time, the tip shoots an infrared beam to help with orientation.After selecting the location, press the button again, and a climbing rope with a stainless steel three-prong head will shoot out. The sharp stainless steel three-prong head can easily penetrate a half-meter-thick stone wall, and the above three-prong head is also convenient. Hook anything.

Professor Ye raised the "flashlight", pressed the button, and an infrared ray shot into the top of the plank road.He quickly pressed the button again, and there was a chirping sound as the sharp steel three-prong head flew out, piercing into the hard bluestone slab with a ding, and then Professor Ye quickly wrapped the climbing rope around his body. Around the waist, a knot was tied.Immediately afterwards, Professor Ye yelled "Get up", and the climbing rope shrank rapidly. Professor Ye soared into the air, and instantly hid among the densely packed dead bodies on the top of the plank road, disappearing without a trace.

I said to Gu Meidi: "You go up first, I will cover you!"

Gu Meidi declined: "No! You go up first..."

Before Gu Meidi could finish his sentence, several wolf-faced bats rushed forward.Seeing that the situation was not good, I pushed Gu Meidi away, but I couldn't dodge it.Suddenly, I only felt a sharp pain from my left shoulder. A wolf-faced bat opened its mouth wide, and its sharp teeth quickly tore off a piece of flesh from my shoulder. Hot blood splashed on my face. I couldn't help it. There was a scream of ah.

Gu Meidi's eyes turned red anxiously: "Tuoba Gu!"

I yelled at Gu Mei Di, "Go! Go!"

The situation was urgent, and Gu Meidi had no time to refuse. She gritted her teeth and said, "Be careful yourself!", then quickly activated the climbing rope, and soon soared into the air with agility, hiding on the top of the plank road .

More and more wolf-faced bats rushed forward frantically. Enduring the severe pain, I turned over and fell to the ground, avoiding the swarm of bats falling from the sky, then quickly took out the "flashlight" and pressed the button on the top of the plank road.After confirming that the stainless steel trident was nailed into the top bluestone slab, I wound the climbing rope around my wrist casually.The climbing rope shrunk quickly and pulled me from the ground into the air with a whirring sound. I howled and broke through the bat swarm, and plunged into the pile of corpses. I was stuck between the two dead corpses and couldn't move.

I just felt a cloud of gold stars dancing in front of my eyes. If it wasn't for the severe pain from my shoulder that stimulated my nerves, I'm afraid I would have passed out.I didn't dare to breathe, and hid in the pile of corpses holding my breath, silently thinking of God's blessing.

Maybe it was my prayer that moved the heavens. After about half a stick of incense, I heard the sound of fluttering wings fading away.After waiting for a while, I struggled to squeeze my head out of the pile of corpses and looked outside.The bat swarm had all dispersed and returned to the bronze iron tree in the center of the ancient pagoda. There were many ice-blue light spots on the bronze iron tree as before.I looked at the ice-blue dots of light, and at the wreckage and blood scattered on the ground, feeling like we had just had a terrible nightmare.

After confirming that the threat was eliminated, we slowly slid down from the top of the plank road.Only then did I have the time to turn my head and look at my injured shoulder.I saw a bloody mess on the shoulder, and the blood stained half of the clothes red, and it was still oozing out. I felt that my left arm was almost numb from the pain.

Gu Meidi came to my side quickly, with anxiety written all over his face: "Tuobagu, how are you? Let me see!"

"It's okay!" I waved my hand, pretending to be a strong man, I didn't want to show my cowardly side in front of the woman I love.

"Ah! Are you injured so badly?!" Gu Meidi screamed, and immediately turned around to find the bandaging medicine from the backpack, trying to treat my wound.

"Wait!" Professor Ye came over and stopped Gu Meidi's behavior.

Gu Meidi looked at Professor Ye in puzzlement: "Tuoba Gu has lost a lot of blood, and the bleeding must be stopped immediately!"

Professor Ye said solemnly: "I know this, but the wounds bitten by wolf-faced bats cannot be treated simply by stopping the bleeding and bandaging. Gu Meidi, please help me by the side, and I will help Tuobagu bandage the wounds! Tuoba Gu, quick, take off your coat!"

I heard what Professor Ye said was so serious, and my heart was beating non-stop.I didn't dare to be negligent, I took off my coat repeatedly, revealing my strong body, when Gu Meidi saw my naked body for the first time, his pretty face couldn't help but blushed halfway: "Yo! Xiao Wanger's figure is not bad !"

Professor Ye said: "Gu Meidi, don't just be greedy for beauty, hurry up and get the hemostatic gauze and anti-inflammatory powder ready!"

When Professor Ye said this, Gu Meidi's little face turned even redder. She quickly put down her backpack and pretended to be looking for medicine seriously.

Professor Ye took out a sharp military dagger, looked into my eyes and asked, "Tuobagu, are you afraid of pain?"

The icy light was reflected on my face, I shivered suddenly, and asked tentatively: "Professor Ye, what... are you doing?"

Professor Ye pointed to the wound on my shoulder and said: "The fangs of this wolf-faced bat contain a strong poison. If the toxin cannot be removed in time, after a quarter of an hour, the toxin will melt into the blood, and you will be in danger!"

I was slightly startled: "Then how can we remove the toxin?"

Professor Ye waved the dagger in his hand: "Be patient, I will use the dagger to cut off the carrion in your wound!"

"Scared!" I widened my eyes, "Is it the only way to do this?"

Professor Ye nodded heavily, as if to comfort me: "It's okay! My knife skills are very fast!"

I looked at the gleaming dagger, and couldn't help swallowing.

Gu Meidi suddenly held my hand, and said softly, "I'm sorry, I'm the one who got you into trouble! Don't be afraid, with me here, you must be strong!"

Feeling the temperature from Gu Meidi's palm, I quickly calmed down. I licked my dry lips, closed my eyes, and looked desperate: "Professor Ye, let's do it!"

Professor Ye used a windproof lighter to make the edge of the dagger burn hot and turn red. This method has two purposes.One is to sterilize the dagger with the high temperature of the flame; the other is that when the red-hot knife cuts carrion, the high temperature will burn the flesh. Although it is painful, it can quickly heal the wound and stop bleeding.

Professor Ye heaved a sigh of relief: "Tuobagu, hold on, I'm going to attack!"

I nodded, biting the blood-stained clothes in my mouth, with a death-like expression on my face.

Professor Ye said, "I'll count to three! One!"

Just after counting, Professor Ye suddenly inserted the dagger into my wound.The sharp pain mixed with the burning pain severely tormented my nerves and made me tremble violently.Pea-sized beads of sweat rolled down my cheeks in clusters, and I rolled my eyes weakly, feeling like I was about to die at this moment.

Professor Ye quickly spun the blade and cut off the carrion near the wound. I could clearly hear the strange sound of the knife cutting the meat.The severe pain made me almost faint, my body was stretched like a steel plate, and the left arm seemed to be no longer my limb.

Gu Meidi held my hand tightly, seeing me in such pain, tears overflowed from her eyes.

Just when my soul was about to be pulled out of my body, Professor Ye put down the dagger, wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to me: "Okay! Don't be dazed, Gu Mei Di, take the medicine quickly!"

"Oh! Oh!" Gu Meidi hurriedly took out the anti-inflammatory powder, poured a small bag of anti-inflammatory powder evenly on my wound, then wrapped it with a hemostatic gauze, and finally tied a wound on my arm. Pretty bow.

I took out a pack of cigarettes from my backpack, handed one to Professor Ye, took one from my mouth, and said vaguely, "Fire! Let's light it!"

Gu Meidi frowned and said, "You still want to smoke after being injured like this?"

Professor Ye said: "Let him smoke one to relieve the pain!"

Gu Meidi set me on fire, and I took a big sip, panting heavily.
