Chapter 38
Chapter 38 How Could He Get Injured?
An hour later, we were outside a small community clinic.
“What the hell is this!” Liu Shuai sat on the ground and applied medicine to the swelling on his face while cursing, “what’s wrong with this brat? I was beaten up for nothing at dinner because of him. But not only was he ungrateful, he even hop on a plane to play around by himself!”
I just took the rest of the medicine out from the clinic. His wounds were all on the surface, not really a big deal, but I could hear the displeasure in Liu Shuai’s words.
“What’s going on in these clinics? How could the doctor prescribe so many medicine while I just have some swelling? Maybe he wants me to swell up again?” Liu Shuai cursed after he finished applying the ointment. Looking at the traffic outside, I didn’t know what to say, so I sat on the ground and looked at the lights in the distance.
After a long while, Liu Shuai sighed and asked me, “do you have cigarettes?”
“No,” I shook my head, “you know I don’t smoke.”
“Damn.” Liu Shuai’s face was filled with anger. No one knew what he was scolding. He continued to look at the lights in front of him, and after five minutes he started to look around, “where is my phone?”
“Here.” I took out a phone from my pocket. It slipped out when Liu Shuai fell to the ground. I helped him keep it all the way to the clinic, “Don’t tell me you want to call for cigarette delivering. ” I looked at the convenience store nearby. There should be cigarettes.
“You freak,” Liu Shuai said snappily. “I’ll call my master.”
“Zhang Quan?” I was surprised, “Why are you looking for him?”
“Hey, are you stupid?” Liu Shuai sighed again, “Zhou Yuan left just like that. He dosen’t know about the injuries on his body, and he is a sharp tongue. If he quarrels with others on the way, wouldn’t he be beaten to death? I’ll ask my master to see if there’s anything we can do. ”
“Hey, you scolded Zhou Yuan to such an extent, and still consider for him?” I can’t help but admire Liu Shuai a little.
“How could you say that!” Liu Shuai held the phone and checked it. The screen was a little dirty. He wiped it with his clothes and said, “Whatever I said, Zhou Yuan is still our brothers. I should be responsible for his current condition. You and I both know that Zhou Yuan was a person with a good temper in the past. He never fought with others. Every time I see him like this, I am angry, but let’s think about it seriously, it’s not his fault, because he is not him now. Based on this, we have to find all the ways to get the real Zhou Yuan back! ”
Liu Shuai’s words touched me a lot. Brothers might fight, but always helped each other. Somehow, I felt that Liu Shuai seemed to have changed as well, as if he had become a different person, but I couldn’t tell what exactly changed.
Seeing that I did not say anything, Liu Shuai put the screen closer to his eyes to look at it. It was still a little dirty, so he continued to wipe it and said, “By the way, what happened to you? Where is the ghost girl? ”
If Liu Shuai hadn’t said it, I would have forgotten that the dispute was caused by the ghost girl. When I thought of that scene, I couldn’t help but shiver, “It seemed that she had gone. She seemed to have disappeared.”
“Coward.” Liu Shuai laughed and the bump on his face pained him, “Sigh, it’s really painful. Hey, what are you afraid of, even if it’s ghost girl, you have one at your home, right? And you are an expert who defeated Hong Hai’er! ”
I also felt that it was incomprehensible. There was Yan at my home, but I was still scared by such a ghosty thing. Maybe it was due to natural psychology. “That’s different. I had Guan Zi Zai’s assistance when I was dealing with Xiao Hong, so I wasn’t afraid at that time. Besides, I borrowed someone else’s mana at that time. I don’t have any power at all.”
“Stop!” Liu Shuai abruptly interrupted me, “Then what happened to you today? It’s obvious that Ah Zhe knows martial arts, we can tell from the strike he put on me, ordinary people definitely won’t be able to contend against him. How could you suddenly be so powerful today?”
“Did I?” I was a little confused, I was too nervous during the battle, thus I could not remember anything. Liu Shuai, this spectator, seemed to know more than me.
“Of course!” Liu Shuai became interested, and without caring about the pain, he stood up and gestured, “when Ah Zhe did this, you lightly blocked him. It looked extremely slow, but actually, it was extremely fast. After that, you borrowed his strength to fight, like Tai Chi technique. Your final move was so fast that I could not see what happened, but from the result, it seemed like you used a type of martial arts that allowed you to attack others with their attacks.”
The more Liu Shuai spoke, the more excited he became, he almost drooled on my face. But when he finished speaking, Liu Shuai’s expression changed, but I couldn’t be bothered with these details. My heartbeat grew stronger and stronger with Liu Shuai’s depiction. Finally, Liu Shuai and I said at the same time, “Attack Rebounding technique?”
“No way, that’s impossible.” I shook my head, denying such a thing. “I didn’t bring any books with me today, and no one could lend me any mana.”
“Then how do you explain it?” Liu Shuai also felt that it was impossible, but he still insisted on his opinion.
“How could I know?” I didn’t understand either, but I didn’t want to think about it anymore, “Hey, are you going to call your master? Zhou Yuan should be on the plane now. Even if we found a way, we can’t fly to Hangzhou to protect Zhou Yuan, can we? ”
“Hehe, you don’t know my master.” Liu Shuai smiled and called Zhang Quan.
“Hey, is that Zhang Quan? This is Liu Shuai. I need your help. ” Liu Shuai did not care about what Zhang Quan said. He began to speak as he got through.
Liu Shuai called Zhang Quan master behind his back, but called him by his name in the phone. He must be embarrassed. I laughed to myself.
As expected, after Zhang Quan asked “what’s wrong”, Zhang Quan recounted the events that happened to Zhou Yuan today as if he was pouring beans into a pot, but he had omitted the matter of him being injured. In the end, Liu Shuai asked, “That’s it. He had already gone to Hangzhou before we could even save him. He might already be on the plane now. Do you have any ideas to protect him safe in these days. After he returns, we can use Avalokiteshvara’s medicine to save him.
Zhang Quan muttered to himself in the phone. Liu Shuai was a little anxious. When he was about to ask, Zhang Quan said, “There is a way. I have a string of two elements dust beads here. It is originally prepared for you … ” Hearing that, Liu Shuai’s eyes dimmed a little, but Zhang Quan could not see it through the phone. He continued, “Put this string on your wrist, there will be a mini Two Elements Dust Array. Ordinary malicious attacks can’t get close to you, it’s just that … ”
“Just what?” Liu Shuai and I asked.
“How to give it to Zhou Yuan is a problem.” Zhang Quan’s tone did not reveal whether he was happy or angry, and he stopped speaking.
“How could this be a problem?” Liu Shuai frowned. Zhang Quan was truly strange. He could even come and go as he wished in Avalokiteshvara’s place, how could he be afraid of consuming his mana to go find Zhou Yuan?
“I’m injured. I’m in hospital right now.” Zhang Quan coughed.
“Injured?” Liu Shuai shouted, “Are you kidding? Who can hurt you? ”
Then, Liu Shuai hung up the phone and started a visual call with Zhang Quan. Soon, the call was connected.
As we watched the screen, we found that Zhang Quan’s body was wrapped in gauze. On his head, only the eyes were exposed. It seemed like he was more injured than Liu Shuai. At this time, Zhang Quan also saw the swelling on Liu Shuai’s face through the video. When the two saw each other, they immediately blurted out,
“How did you get injured like this?”
“Don’t worry about me, what’s going on with you?” Liu Shuai thought that it’s too troublesome to explain his injury, so he asked Zhang Quan directly.
“Well, it’s a long story. Xiao Hua is coming. I must hung up now.” Zhang Quan seemed to have heard someone outside and turned off the video.
After that, Liu Shuai didn’t speak for a long time. I was wondering why Zhang Quan would suddenly become like this, then I noticed that Liu Shuai lowered his head and held his phone tightly. He shivered vigorously. I felt something was wrong, so I shaked him, “Are you alright? What’s wrong with you?”
Liu Shuai suddenly raised his head and looked at me. Tears suddenly bursted out of his eyes. This is the first time I had seen Liu Shuai crying. He said, “How could he be injured? How did he get hurt? ”
