Volume 1 Chapter 15: Hospitalization

Five days have passed since my first day of fighting. I barely slept in these five days. After I escaped from the cave, my tense nerves relaxed instantly. Then my eyes went dark and I couldn't.

Awareness.

I had a long dream, in which I dreamed about those dead guys.

Although I didn't know them before, a few of them were still willing to respectfully call me Qiu Sanye.

I also dreamed about the black gold box that my second brother took out from the coffin, which contained a piece of dragon skin. The dragon skin was draped on the body by the kid in the secret passage to live forever.

I don’t know how long it took, but I struggled in the chaotic dream and finally woke up.

When I opened my eyes, I found that I was lying in a ward. The bedside cabinet was filled with fruits and nutritional supplements. There was no one else in the ward except me.

I still have an IV drip on my left hand, my chest is wrapped in a thick layer of bandages, and my ankles are covered with gauze, just like a mummy.

I struggled to sit up from the bed, my throat was so dry that it was smoking, I grabbed a glass of water from the cabinet and drank it, then I felt like I was alive again.

After leaning on the bed for a long time, the door of the ward was pushed open, and it was Dawu who came.

When Dawu saw me waking up, he smiled at me and said, "Master Qiu San, you're awake... If you feel uncomfortable, I'll call the doctor to check you out."

Soon, Dawu called the doctor. After checking me, he said something to Dawu and left.

Only then did I have time to ask Dawu: "How many days have I been in coma? Where is my second brother?"

"Three days have passed since you came out of the cave. You were unconscious for three days and three nights... After we came out of the cave that day, the second master asked his brothers at home to dig a hole overnight to save Master Cao. Fortunately,

Master Cao is fine...Second Master sent the guys from the martial arts hall to go back to the fight and brought back all the brothers' bodies that could be recovered."

I nodded and took a breath. This experience of fighting upside down was a narrow escape. I don’t want to have this kind of experience again in my life!

In the next two days, Dawu basically took care of me in the hospital, and I never saw my second brother.

According to Dawu, many brothers were lost in this battle, and the second brother was busy preparing funeral arrangements for those brothers who died, and was also asking around for news about the Six-Finger Clan.

I understand that the second brother is planning to go to Wulong Mountain in western Hunan to look for the mysterious six-fingered tribe. Because of the pattern on the black gold box, he concluded that there must be a valuable treasure in Wulong Mountain.

On the third day, I completely recovered mentally and physically, and then I remembered that there was a person named Baisha.

"Dawu, where did Baisha go after he came out?"

"He is the person I invited on the road. After he came out, the second master paid him, and then he left... Don't tell me, this guy is really worth it. If it weren't for him this time, I'm afraid

At that time, when we encountered a bloody corpse, we had to drink a pot!"

On the afternoon of the third day, Dawu said that there was something in Wutang that he needed to handle, so he left me alone in the hospital.

The nurse who changed my dressing was very good-looking, she looked about 27 or 28 years old. Every time she came to change my dressing, I subconsciously looked at her chest.

After she discovered it later, she straightened up every time she came to change the dressing and never bent down again.

I was walking alone in the hospital with a cigarette in my mouth. Many things surprised me. Because I had been in prison for five years, I had never seen many new things in prison. I had just been released from prison and had not had time to see the world.

Dawu and the others took him to the tomb.

In the evening, I finally met my second brother, whom I hadn’t seen for a few days.

He changed from his embarrassed appearance in the tomb and put on some decent clothes, looking mature and sophisticated.

I think this is what the second brother is really like.

The second brother sat down next to my hospital bed, smiled at me, and wanted to hand me a cigarette, but he thought that my body was not suitable for smoking, so he took his hand back.

"Qiuzi, how has your body recovered in the past two days?"

"It's okay. I just feel pain in my chest from time to time. I guess my sternum was cracked a little by the tomb beast."

A look of guilt flashed across the second brother's face, and after a long sigh, he patted me on the shoulder.

"Qiuzi, my second brother hasn't visited you these five years since you were in prison. My second brother knows that you are resentful, but I have no choice..."

My second brother told me what happened after my grandfather, I, and my father were arrested.

When my second brother returned to his home in Hunan, he followed my father's instructions and went to find some people on the road. As a result, when he returned to Shaanxi with his people, the head of the Zhang family, a famous tomb robber family in Hunan, was arrested.

The second brother knew immediately that something had happened between my father and me.

He quickly dismissed the borrowed local masters on the road and returned to Hunan.

My father was arrested, and the main business of the family was gone. The family's clerks were chased by Lei Zi and fled in all directions. Some who were lucky enough to escape did not dare to do this business anymore and lived incognito.

The second brother found those loyal backbones of the Zhang family, and then those people elected the second brother to become the new head of the Zhang family. In order to avoid the limelight and to be closer to my father, they moved all the Zhang family's influence in Hunan.

Arrive in Shaanxi.

After arriving in Shaanxi, I found out that my father had been sentenced to death, but my second brother heard that I was only sentenced to 10 years, which was considered a blessing among misfortunes.

I always wanted to find some connections to work with, but I couldn't get through several times. Later, my second brother got into a lot of big fights in Shaanxi and lost his reputation in Shaanxi.

As the saying goes, a big tree attracts wind, so my second brother was afraid to visit me. My enemies found out that my second brother was the one who slipped through the crackdown on tomb robbers, so they never dared to come to the prison to see me.

After saying this, the second brother's face was full of guilt, and tears began to shine in his eyes.

"When my father was executed, I didn't even see him for the last time, nor did my uncle, third uncle, and my father..."

I was suddenly shocked. After hearing what my second brother meant, could it be that he thought that my uncle and my second uncle were also shot?

I thought about it. The only people who knew that my eldest uncle and second uncle were dead in the tomb were a few guys who were there and my grandfather. Those guys were killed along with my dad. It seems that I was the only one who knew the inside story.

And there are only a few people left who were not sentenced to death and issued cards.

"Second brother, my father and I were indeed shot, but... my eldest uncle and my second uncle died in the tomb. After you left, my father came up from the tomb and said to me with a dark face.

The eldest uncle and the second uncle were gone, and then we were captured by Lei Zi."
