Chapter 186 Man-Eating Crocodile(1/2)

Jiang Xia was finally able to lie on the hospital bed. After several days of bumpy journey, the wounds on her legs had begun to fester in some places, and she started to have a high fever that night.

This hospital is close to the military camp and was originally a local hospital. Later, after the site was occupied by Nguyen Phu Chi's armed forces, it became a semi-civilian and semi-military special hospital. It is best at treating knife wounds and gunshot wounds.

Compared with other departments of his own, compared with Xia Guo's hospital, they seemed to be very backward.

The next day, Jiang Xia, who was almost in a coma, saw a stern-faced female doctor walk in and touch his head, then check his legs, shake his head and explain to a nurse next to him.

He said something and then left the ward.

The nurse gave him fluids and started cleaning the wound. The pain made Jiang Xia wake up a little, and she was thinking, will these two legs become lame?

The nurse looked to be in her twenties or thirteen years old, and she looked very beautiful, but like the doctor, she always had a very serious look.

After changing the medicine that day, Jiang Xia felt a little more awake and suddenly took her hand and asked, "Am I going to die?"

The girl was startled, but still replied seriously: "No, but it may be disabled..."

"It would be better to die. I don't want to live in a wheelchair for the rest of my life."

"It is better to die than to live. My father has been paralyzed for more than ten years, but he is still alive and well."

Jiang Xia was silent for a while, looked out the window at the almost dark sky and said, "You seem to be the only nurse here, and the doctor is not here either."

"I am in charge of these wards, and the doctor has to take care of the two-story ward. This place is not as good as other places. With this condition, there are doctors and nurses during the day, and I just lie down and sleep by myself at night. If you come here, you are more likely to live or die.

It depends on your fate. Okay, I have to get off work. If you have a fever at night, take the medicine on the table."

After the nurse left, a person who looked like an aunt began to deliver meals to each room, threw them on the table and left without saying a word, just like the cell leader delivering meals to prisoners.

When it got dark, Jiang Xia was the only one in the whole ward. Maybe they knew he couldn't get up now, so they felt comfortable leaving him alone in the hospital.

Jiang Xia remembered Amei inexplicably. According to his memory, although they were both in Annan Country and on the same border, Amei was in the Nu River Basin, hundreds of kilometers away from Sanhe County.

The last time I met Amei, he came back to life. This time his life or death is unpredictable.

Quiet, so quiet that it makes people feel nervous.

He thought of many people, from Mo Xiaochou to Jiang Xueqing, from home to the army, thinking about them one by one, his head hurt, and it took a long time before he fell asleep.

It was an early morning when I woke up again, and I felt a little lighter, except for being thirsty.

"You slept for two days and one night, but fortunately you woke up."

Jiang Xia followed the voice and looked over. The little nurse didn't tie her hair into a ponytail today. It looked more stylish when it was let down.

Judging from her eyebrows and figure, she is a standard beauty, but her face is a little pale and she looks overworked.

"What's your name?" Jiang Xia asked.

"You'd better take care of your legs..."

"I just want to express my gratitude. Besides, we probably have to get along for a while."

Nurse Nunu said: "Manhe"

"It's a nice name. My name is Cao Dawei."

Manhe remained indifferent. After wrapping the last piece of gauze, he said, "Have a good rest. If you are lucky, your limp may be lighter."

"Aren't you curious why I'm here?"

Man He sighed softly and said, "You can't ask for any information about the patient. This is the rule of this hospital. If you don't want to feed the crocodiles, just say less."

"Where's the crocodile?"

Man He looked north and nuzzled his mouth.

"Can you buy me a mobile phone?"

Manhe stopped paying attention to him, packed up the medicine box, and turned to leave.

Jiang Xia began to wonder what kind of place this place was, and even if she died, she had to die clearly.

He desperately tried to move his legs, but it was all in vain. Not only did it hurt, but he also didn't obey his orders at all. After several attempts, he had to give up.

Life here is a bit like being imprisoned for a mistake in the military, but it only lasts a few days at most. I don’t know how many days I will be imprisoned here. It’s a long time and there is no hope.

A few days later, the doctor came again. Still without saying a word, he took the case, checked his legs, and left in a hurry.

Manhe still comes here every day, but gradually she will look at him more and even smile a little.

"Well, Manhe, I feel like I'm already smelly. Can you wash my hair for me?"

She left without comment. Jiang Xia shook her head and thought she refused.

After a while, Manhe brought a basin over and said softly: "Turn your head over..."

Jiang Xia moved hard so that she was lying across the bed, her head hanging on the edge of the bed.

Manhe took a stool and placed the basin on it. The warm water flowed through her hair and face. Jiang Xia could smell the light fragrance on her hands and body.

"You are so beautiful..." Jiang Xia said.

Manhe slapped him gently on the face and cursed: "Don't make such a playful face with me."

"I'm just telling a fact."

Indeed, Manhe is a real beauty, but she always looks tired.

"Can you tell me what's going on here? This Sam He County, that Nguyen Phu Chi, and his armed forces."

Manhe subconsciously looked behind him, stood up and closed the door. After coming back, he whispered: "If you are thinking about escaping, I advise you to give up."

"Why? Are there wolves here?"

"The crocodile is more powerful than the wolf."

"Then I can only surrender to them?"

Manhe sighed and said: "If you want to submit to them first and then find a chance to escape later, then..."

"What will happen?"

"They will inject you with drugs or certain drugs to control you, so when you come here, you are like a living dead..."

Jiang Xia felt a little cold in her heart, it seemed like there was really no hope after what she said.

However, Jiang Xia is not a pessimistic person. He has encountered a desperate situation more than once before, but he survived every time. He does not believe that he will die here this time.

After washing her hair, she feels much refreshed, and Jiang Xia's spirit is also better.

"Manhe, I see you don't look good. You work very hard, right? Is this job very important to you?"

Manhe smiled bitterly and said, "There is no job. I can only work with the northwest wind here. Even if I farm, I have to pay heavy taxes to Ruan Phu Zhi. My father is still paralyzed... I don't know how many people envy this job."

Jiang Xia didn't know what to say. This was not the Xia Kingdom and he couldn't help with anything.

When Manhe packed up and left, he turned around and whispered: "If you can walk again, someone might come and stare at you, so...understand?"

Jiang Xia immediately understood, that is to say, let him pretend, so that those who are staring at him will come later.

A few days later, Jiang Xia felt that she had some strength in her legs, so she quietly tried it in the dead of night. She fell off the bed heavily for the first time. After a while, she continued to work hard. After several efforts, she finally fell off the bed.

I was finally able to stand up, although my legs still hurt a lot.

In the next few days, Jiang Xia would practice quietly every night, and finally she could walk slowly while holding on to the wall.

Jiang Xia was so bored that one day she couldn't help but open the door of the ward and peek out.

It was past ten o'clock in the evening, and there was no one in the corridor. There were only a few rooms with cool lights.

Suddenly I heard the sound of gentle footsteps on the stairs, and when I looked closely, I saw the figure of a young woman.

She didn't find Jiang Xia hiding behind the gap, but walked straight to a room at the end of the corridor, and then the door was gently closed.

Jiang Xia followed secretly, and a man's voice sounded from inside the door: "Have you figured it out? If you want to come in and work, you have to make me happy. In this hospital, General Ruan will listen to me..."

"Dean Xie, I've figured it out a long time ago. It's you who have always looked down on me. Let's agree first that I want to do logistics work..."

Then there was a sound that made people blush.

Jiang Xia slowly retreated, closed the door and lay down on the bed with great effort. She felt very uncomfortable. Are all people here like this? What about Manhe?

Two days later, Manhe came to wash his hair again. Jiang Xia felt that her mood was strange and her eyes were red.

After Manhe left, the third person besides him and the meal delivery lady finally walked into the ward.

Danny was pushing a wheelchair in his hand.

"What are you doing? Inviting me out to see the scenery?"

"You guessed it right, it's a beautiful scenery. Please invite Mr. Cao Dawei."

Danny pushed Jiang Xia out of the hospital and walked north for about a few hundred meters. He arrived at a pool. The pool was about fifty meters long and wide and surrounded by barbed wire. There was very little water in the pool. At first glance, it looked like

, all black mud.

No, the mud can move. If you look closely, you will see that those are very large crocodiles!

Jiang Xia has seen a lot of crocodiles, and has even killed two at close range, but this is the first time she has seen one that is so big and looks so strong.

This is not a pool, this is a crocodile pool.

There was a row of people standing across the pond, and the one in the middle wearing sunglasses seemed to be Ruan Phu Chi.
