Top-notch Urban Evil Cultivator
Chapter 218 A Lifetime in a Vegetable
After Lin Xuan left, the village finally relaxed completely.
The screams that filled the night hung like a dark cloud over everyone's hearts.
Lin Xuan's face was etched into their memories, and they dared not forget it.
That young face, those calm eyes, and the imposing aura emanating from every gesture.
It was so oppressive that it was hard to breathe.
Wang Tianhu came to Wei Ran's side and grinned:
"Third brother, we've become friends after this little misunderstanding, let's have a drink together sometime!"
"Definitely! Thank you so much, Brother Tiger, for this!"
"Haha, no problem, no problem! From now on, we're family!"
Wei Ran smiled as he saw them off.
This matter is finally over.
Unexpectedly, this misfortune turned into a blessing, leading me to find my soulmate!
What the old man said two years ago was actually true.
There really are ancient martial arts practitioners in this world, and there really is that mysterious world.
"Third Brother, that old bastard?"
Ma Zi came to Wei Ran's side and pointed to the locked house at the west end of the village.
"Do as Mr. Lin says, serve him the best food and drink, but... he can't leave here even for a moment. No problems can arise before Mr. Lin gives further instructions!"
Wei Ran's voice was deep and left no room for doubt.
Ma Zi had some doubts in his heart:
That guy... even if he wanted to leave, he couldn't, right?
With his hands and feet crippled, he'll probably just stay there for the rest of his life.
But he dared not say more.
Wei Ran thought for a moment, then continued:
"I might be leaving for a while. I'll leave this place to you for the time being."
Ma Zi paused for a moment, then scratched his head:
"Third Brother, where are you going? I'll go with you! I'm worried about you going alone."
Third Brother shook his head and patted him on the shoulder:
"The village shouldn't do those things anymore. I'll ask Mr. Lin for help, and we can do some projects together."
"Can we...do this?"
The man with pockmarks had nothing but suspicion in his eyes.
After so many years in the workforce, I'm suddenly faced with the prospect of changing careers, and I feel uncertain about it.
"Don't worry, I'm here for you."
Wei Ran smiled.

in the hospital.
The corridor lights were a stark white, shining on the cold floor tiles.
The air was filled with the smell of disinfectant.
The clock on the wall ticked away, each second feeling like a countdown.
Sister Liu was in the ICU for an entire night.
Outside, Yu Tong lay on Zhao Xueli's lap, with her coat draped over her body.
Her hair was disheveled, and there were still tear stains on her face.
She cried all night, and Zhao Xueli stayed with her all night.
Zhao Xueli's legs were numb, but she didn't move. She just gently patted Yu Tong's back, like she was comforting her own child.
Finally, Yu Tong was exhausted and slept for a while.
Even in her sleep, her brows were furrowed, and she occasionally murmured incoherently, as if calling for her mother.
at last.
The ICU door opened, and several doctors came out.
Just as Zhao Xueli was about to get up, Yu Tong on her lap was startled awake.
She suddenly opened her eyes, sprang up like a spring, and rushed over.
"Doctor, please...please ask about my mother..."
She asked in a hoarse voice.
Zhao Xueli quickly followed and supported Yu Tong's shoulders, afraid that she would collapse.
The doctor in the lead took off his mask, revealing the face of a middle-aged man.
He had deep dark circles under his eyes, but his gaze was gentle.
"The patient is now out of danger."
The doctor looked at Yu Tong and spoke softly.
Yu Tong heard this.
I felt completely drained of energy.
She let out a long sigh of relief, a breath that seemed to be squeezed from the deepest part of her chest, trembling and filled with tears.
"Thank you, thank you doctor! Thank you!"
She kept speaking, like a broken record, over and over again.
The doctor waved his hand.
His gaze shifted from Yu Tong to Zhao Xueli's face.
"Excuse me, is Mr. Lin Xuan here?"
His voice wasn't loud, but it carried a hint of hope.
Zhao Xueli was stunned for a moment.
She sensed that the doctor seemed to have something else to say.
She nodded and followed the doctor to the corner of the corridor. Only after confirming that Yu Tong couldn't hear her did the doctor continue speaking.
"My name is Li Dehai."
The doctor introduces himself.
"Vice President Zhao Jian has already spoken to me. He is away for an exchange and study and cannot return immediately. He told me to take this surgery very seriously."
"Thank you so much, Dr. Li!" Zhao Xueli said gratefully. "We'll visit Uncle Zhao to express our gratitude later!"
Li Dehai waved his hand.
Then he hesitated for a moment, his brows furrowing slightly:
"This patient's condition is very special, extremely special..."
"special?"
Zhao Xueli was taken aback.
Ms. Liu suffered a severe blow to the back of her head and lost a lot of blood. Although it was serious, such patients are not uncommon in the ICU.
Li Dehai took a deep breath and no longer hesitated:
"Normally speaking, Ms. Liu should already be dead, with absolutely no chance of survival."
"Because the treatment was too late, the wound on the back of the head was deep enough to reach the skull, and the blood loss exceeded one-third of the total body blood volume. Coupled with prolonged hypoxia... with the current level of medical care, the mortality rate in this situation is 99%."
He paused, looking into Zhao Xueli's eyes:
"But she survived."
Zhao Xueli frowned:
"Dr. Li, what do you mean?"
What I mean is...
"We detected an inexplicable energy within Ms. Liu's body. It acted like a protective shield, protecting her heart and brain, allowing her to survive the most dangerous moment."
His eyes held a strange excitement:
"We've never seen this kind of energy before! Vice Dean Zhao said that Mr. Lin Xuan might know the answer."
Zhao Xueli fell silent.
she knows.
It's Lin Xuan!
Previously, Tong Yao's father, Tong Yuan, was also saved by him with his miraculous abilities.
At that time, Lin Xuan used acupuncture to pull the person back from the brink of death.
At that time, she saw with her own eyes streams of black gas coming out of Uncle Tong's body.
It overturned her worldview.
Now, he has saved Sister Liu's life.
"I just called Dean Zhao Jian as well."
Li Dehai pushed up his glasses, his eyes still gleaming.
"He said that this kind of thing must have been done by Mr. Lin Xuan. That's why... I wanted to meet this Mr. Lin just now!"
This is simply a miracle.
If Zhao Jian hadn't told him not to spread the word,
I'm sure I've already convened a hospital-wide expert consultation to study Ms. Liu's condition.
In all my years of medical practice, I have never seen anything like this.
Zhao Xueli looked at the sky outside, which was beginning to lighten.
"I should be back soon," she said.
"Alright, then I'll wait here for a while."
"By the way, although Ms. Liu's vital signs have recovered quite a bit, it's still very uncertain whether she will wake up."
I heard the words "very risky".
Zhao Xueli felt another pang in her heart.
"The worst-case scenario could be a lifetime...vegetative state."
He was afraid the little girl wouldn't be able to handle it, so he spoke to the adults privately.
Zhao Xueli's throat tightened, and her eyes felt hot.
But she held back, taking a deep breath:
"I understand, thank you Dr. Li. Everything will be fine once Xiaolin returns."
She sighed, composed herself, and walked back to Yu Tong's side.
"Sister Zhao, what else did Dr. Li just say?"
Yu Tong spoke with a hopeful expression.
