My Amazing WeChat is Connected to the Three Realms - Chapter 49
The headquarters hospital was in chaos.
As Lin Hai followed Xiao Wu and Xiao Wang inside, Xiao Wu immediately grabbed the head nurse’s wrist.
“How is the General?” Lin Hai noticed that Xiao Wu’s eyes were bloodshot.
The head nurse winced, clearly in pain from the grip. “Chief Xiao fainted due to a sudden surge of anger, but he’s awake now and resting in his room.”
“Take us to him right away!”
Before they even entered the room, Lin Hai heard Xiao Qingshan’s voice.
“Get out! I’m not dead yet, all of you, out!”
A group of military officers, adorned with various ranks, were being shooed out of the room. Lin Hai’s sharp eyes caught sight of two or three high-profile figures often seen on the news. His heart skipped a beat—he had underestimated Xiao Qingshan’s status.
“Chief, how are you?” Xiao Wu, being close to Xiao Qingshan, rushed into the room.
Lin Hai followed closely. Xiao Qingshan had been kind to him, and having inherited Tie Guai Li’s legacy, Lin Hai believed his medical skills were unmatched in this world. If something happened to Xiao Qingshan, he could help.
“Hmph, I’m not dead yet,” Xiao Qingshan grunted, then turned to Lin Hai.
“Xiao Lin, I’m sorry. You finally come to Beijing, and I can’t even host you properly.”
“Chief Xiao, you’re too kind. I came mainly to see you, and I’m already happy just to be here.”
As he spoke, Lin Hai sat beside Xiao Qingshan and placed his hand on the old man’s wrist to check his pulse.
Xiao Qingshan was surprised. “Oh? Xiao Lin, do you know medicine?”
“A little,” Lin Hai replied, removing his hand. He looked at Xiao Qingshan with concern. “Chief, your body is in good condition, but there seems to be a surge of anger pent up inside you. If it’s not released soon, it could be dangerous.”
After a moment of thought, Lin Hai added, “Did something happen that upset you? Tell me, maybe I can help.”
“Ah, it’s nothing. Don’t worry, I know my own body,” Xiao Qingshan said, but just as he finished speaking, a doctor rushed in.
“Chief Xiao, Young Master Xiao, he…” The doctor hesitated, clearly nervous.
Xiao Qingshan sat up abruptly, his commanding presence filling the room. Even Lin Hai felt a suffocating pressure.
The doctor swallowed hard, not daring to look up. “Young Master Xiao… he might not make it…”
“Chief!” As soon as the doctor finished speaking, Xiao Qingshan’s eyes rolled back, and he fainted.
Xiao Wu and the nurses quickly patted his chest and back, and after a while, Xiao Qingshan regained consciousness. He pushed Xiao Wu away.
“I’m fine, don’t worry about me.”
“Chief Xiao, do you… do you want to go see him? To… to say goodbye…” The doctor was sweating profusely.
“No need. What’s there to see? A soldier’s greatest honor is to die for his country on the battlefield. Yi’er died a hero’s death. I’m proud of him!” Xiao Qingshan’s words were powerful and righteous, moving everyone who heard them.
However, Lin Hai noticed the subtle twitching at the corner of Xiao Qingshan’s eyes, betraying the deep sorrow he was suppressing.
“Who is Young Master Xiao?” Lin Hai whispered to Xiao Wu.
“He’s Chief Xiao’s beloved grandson, just 23 years old. He served in a special unit of the Chinese military.”
Chief Xiao’s beloved grandson? If he died, it would be a tragic case of an elder burying the young. Lin Hai felt conflicted.
Chief Xiao had been kind to him, and now his grandson was on the brink of death. No matter what, Lin Hai felt he should help.
But if time was running out, the only option was the Golden Needle Soul Revival technique. The thought of the excruciating pain that came with it made Lin Hai hesitate.
What should he do?
After a moment of internal struggle, Lin Hai made up his mind.
Screw it! If someone shows you kindness, you should repay it tenfold.
Now was the perfect time to repay Xiao Qingshan’s kindness.
“Take me to see Young Master Xiao!” Lin Hai said to the doctor who had brought the news.
“This…” The doctor didn’t know Lin Hai and hesitated.
“Hurry, there’s no time!”
“Xiao Lin, I appreciate your concern, but Yi’er was shot in vital areas. Even if you know some medicine, there’s no way to save him now,” Xiao Qingshan said, shaking his head, his expression desolate.
“Chief Xiao, I’m not messing around. Please believe me, I can save your grandson. If we wait any longer, it’ll be too late!” Lin Hai stared at Xiao Qingshan with utmost sincerity.
“This…” Xiao Qingshan didn’t know where Lin Hai’s confidence came from. The injuries were fatal—even the experts at the headquarters hospital couldn’t do anything.
“Chief Xiao!” Lin Hai called again.
“Fine! Take Xiao Lin there!” Xiao Qingshan wasn’t one to hesitate. Since Lin Hai was so confident, he might as well let him try. At this point, it was a last-ditch effort.
Lin Hai followed the doctor to the entrance of the surgical ward.
“He’s inside,” the doctor said.
“Got it.” Lin Hai nodded and pushed the door open.
“Hey, stop! Who are you?” Several young soldiers, covered in blood and tears, blocked Lin Hai’s path.
“Move, I’m here to save him!”
“Save him? The hospital’s experts are already inside. Who do you think you are? Don’t make things worse.”
“Damn it!”
Through the door, Lin Hai sensed a strange, soul-stirring sensation. It was the feeling of a soul about to leave its body.
“Get out of my way!” Lin Hai was desperate. Any later, and even the Golden Needle Soul Revival wouldn’t work.
“Kid, you dare to fight back?” One soldier grabbed Lin Hai’s arm, attempting a military grappling move.
Lin Hai was startled by the soldier’s speed. He quickly shifted his weight and instinctively used a bone-displacement technique.
Snap! Lin Hai dislocated the soldier’s arm.
“Ugh!” The soldier grunted but didn’t back down, kicking at Lin Hai.
“Stop!” Another soldier intervened. “Mountain, calm down. He was brought here by Doctor Wang.”
Lin Hai didn’t have time to deal with them. In the distance, he saw a figure cloaked in black robes floating toward them.
He pushed the door open and rushed inside.
“Who are you? Who let you in?” A stern-looking doctor shouted at Lin Hai.
At that moment, the Black Impermanence had reached the door.
Young Master Xiao’s life was hanging by a thread!
Lin Hai ignored the doctor, shoving him aside. In his hand appeared a golden needle, which he plunged into the bloodied soldier on the operating table.
“Damn it, here we go!” Lin Hai closed his eyes, bracing himself for the unbearable pain.
