177 Chapter 133
Zheng Xinglong no longer hid anything. He found a seat, sat down quietly, and took off his outer clothes.
Lieutenant Lin, who was at the side, also bent down and helped him take off his clothes.
As it had been too long, the blood from his injuries had already stuck to his shirt, making it extremely difficult for him to take it off.
“Eh... Bear with it.”
Seeing this, captain Lin sighed and said.
“Don’t worry. I, Old Zheng, won’t even wait to cry out for this little bit of pain.”
Zheng Xinglong still smiled and said, indicating that the other party didn’t need to take care of his own feelings.
Lieutenant Lin didn’t pay attention to him. He took out the medical scissors and cut off the parts that didn’t stick.
Then, he took out the saline from the medical kit and slowly poured it between the wound and the shirt. After the substrate softened, he took it off bit by bit.
Zheng Xinglong teased, “First Lieutenant Lin, we’ve been working together for so long, but I really didn’t realize that you have the skills of a medic.”
First Lieutenant Lin turned around and put down the saline. He took out iodophor from the medical insurance and poured it on the gauze. Then, he picked it up with tweezers and gently wiped it on the top of Zheng Xinglong’s scratches.
“In the current situation, even if I don’t know it before, I have to learn it slowly.”
Zheng Xinglong nodded in agreement when he thought about the battle with the mutated animals at the front line.
“Yeah, I, old Zheng, might have to learn from you too. Although I know a little about this thing, it’s not to this extent.”
After changing a few gauze with blood on it and treating the surface of the wound, First Lieutenant Lin took out a medical glove, a needle holder, and a suture needle.
“Lieutenant Zheng, it’s best for you to practice your superpowers. After all, you are one of the highest combat strength in China. Leave the medical matters to us ordinary soldiers.”
Zheng Xinglong declined, “Don’t flatter me. Lieutenant Lin, I don’t dare to be called the highest combat strength. I, Old Zheng, can barely make it into the top five. There’s still a gap between me and the four people above.”
“Besides, there are still hidden d-class experts like Daoist priest Zhang and Leng Zhen among the people. The so-called combat strength ranking is worth discussing.”
First Lieutenant Lin didn’t refute too much. Instead, he held the needle tightly and spoke to Zheng Xinglong.
“The conditions are limited. There’s no anesthetic. Take a piece of cloth and bite it.”
Zheng Xinglong could be considered a warrior who had more experience than experience. He had stitched up his wounds more than a few times, so he said nonchalantly.
“Feel free to do it. I can hold it in. It doesn’t matter if it’s ugly.”
Zheng Xinglong was rather carefree. He neither took a piece of cloth to bite down on, nor did he need any help. He calmly accepted the stitches.
Lieutenant Lin did not express any opinion on this. He held the needle tightly and quickly pierced into Zheng Xinglong’s wounds.
Instantly, Zheng Xinglong, who was originally smiling, became serious. His eyes widened and sweat continuously dripped from his forehead. It was clear that stitching up the wounds was not as easy as he had said.
After a long while, the suture was completed. Lieutenant Lin tied a small knot at the last position and took out a pair of medical scissors to cut off the excess thread.
Zheng Xinglong also heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. He completely relaxed his tense body. Suturing without anesthetic was still a great burden on his body and spirit.
He raised his arm and carefully observed the wound above.
“Old Lin, your suturing skills are pretty good. You’re much better than the medical soldiers in our battalion.”
The corners of Lieutenant Lin’s mouth did not curl up, but he still put on a serious expression.
“Captain Zheng, the treatment is not over yet. Please don’t swing your arm.”
Upon hearing this, Zheng Xinglong hurriedly put down his left arm.
“Understood, understood.”
Lieutenant Lin took out a thin gauze, sprinkled it with iodophor, and stuck it tightly to the area where the other party had previously sutured. He then wrapped it with medical tape to fix it.
The purpose of doing this was to keep the air at the sutured area clear while speeding up the healing speed of the wound.
“Alright, remember to find me to change the gauze once a day. Second Lieutenant Yu, please take a seat.”
Zheng Xinglong stood up and said very gratefully, “Many thanks, brother Lin. When we return to the capital, Old Yu and I will bring you to the drunken star restaurant for a drink.”
Lieutenant Lin naturally knew why the drunken star restaurant was there. It was a high-end restaurant that consumed thousands of dollars for a meal.
He waved his hand and said, “We are comrades-in-arms. It is our duty to help. Perhaps next time, I will need your help, Captain Zheng. There is no need for a high-end restaurant.”
Vice-captain Yu, who was at the side, also sat down obediently and said seriously, “Lieutenant Lin, please do not reject the good intentions of captain Zheng and I. We are truly grateful to you.”
At this point, Lieutenant Lin did not reject and nodded helplessly.
“I understand. In addition, regarding the other supers, I have also instructed the medical soldiers to go and help.”
Zheng Xinglong put on his sleeves and said, “Brother Lin, you are still thoughtful. In a while, I will hold a meeting. Please attend on time.”
“Understood.”
Lieutenant Lin replied briefly before turning around to focus on dealing with the frostbite on the adjutant’s body.
...
At the camp of the Supernatural Alliance team.
Zhang Daoling and Leng Zhen were both unhappy. They sat on the wooden chair and were deep in thought.
Most of the casualties in this investigation had occurred on their team.
More importantly, the person who caused such a situation had actually returned alive.
“Ahhhhh... it hurts, be gentle, be gentle...”
A mournful cry came from behind. Without even thinking, both of them immediately guessed that it was the sound made by the swordsman.
In the area behind, the swordsman was sitting on a wooden chair. With his left hand holding the [ blowing snow ] , he placed the broken arm in front of him and debrided the medic.
