Chapter 396: Coma
Chapter 396: Chapter 396: Coma
"I’ll do it."
He Qi’an walked over, his voice hoarse as he spoke.
Lin Feng stood up and moved to the side to continue searching elsewhere.
He Qi’an crouched down, staring at the snake’s head.
He reached out and forcibly pried open the snake’s mouth...
As he looked inside, his eyes suddenly brightened, and an infinite strength surged through him, allowing him to break the entire snake’s mouth open.
"Crunch!"
The snake’s massive mouth was directly torn apart by He Qi’an, revealing a curled-up figure inside.
"Yanyan..."
He Qi’an’s voice trembled as he carefully pulled Lin Xiaoyan out of the snake’s mouth.
"Xiao Yan!"
"Oh my, she was actually inside the snake’s mouth!"
"Tsk, it’s truly a narrow escape!"
"Amazing! Amazing! It’s a miracle indeed..."
He Qi’an held Lin Xiaoyan tightly, feeling her body burning hot, as if she were a ball of fire.
He looked up at Bao Lei, "Master, please take a look at Yanyan; she’s burning up..."
Bao Lei looked at Lin Xiaoyan, who was red all over, and immediately crouched down to check her pulse.
Upon touching her hand, Bao Lei was startled by her body temperature.
"So hot!"
Bao Lei examined Lin Xiaoyan closely, opening her eyes and discovering that the whites had turned red.
"Cool her down first; her body is too hot. If this continues, she’ll either die or lose her mind."
He Qi’an, hearing this, immediately picked Lin Xiaoyan up and ran down the mountain.
Earlier, on the way, he had noticed a small pond; he quickly ran there and entered the water with Lin Xiaoyan.
"Call the people down the mountain and have them come quickly to take her to the hospital..."
Bao Lei said to Lin Feng.
Lin Feng, hands shaking, swiftly made the call.
Luckily, Xiao Yan is alive, she’s okay...
The others were gathered around the snake’s body, discussing among themselves.
"After this snake cultivated for so many years, it should have a Demon Core, right?"
"It definitely has one!"
"The Snake Gallbladder must be potent! This is a centuries-old gallbladder!"
"I think these Snake Scales are pretty good too..."
Bao Lei, overhearing their conversation, frowned slightly, "Don’t think about it; this stuff has to be handed over to the bureau."
The others weren’t upset, but instead laughed, "We know, we’re just doing some preliminary research!"
"By the way, didn’t the snake’s head seem to have Dragon Horns? Where are they?"
One person walked over to the snake’s head, looking at the sides where the horns should be.
He was surprised to find that the two bulging areas lacked Dragon Horns, leaving only two scars.
"No wonder this White Snake died so easily; the Dragon Horns are gone!"
Bao Lei and the others also came over, looked at the two scars, and shook their heads silently.
When a snake transforms into a dragon, it gathers all its energy at the top of its head to facilitate the development of the Dragon Horns.
As long as the Dragon Horns form, the back claws would easily follow.
Thus, the death of this White Snake was due to the loss of its energy-gathering Dragon Horns, dispersing its cultivation, and combined with the Heavenly Thunder, it was completely dead.
What a pity!
Nevertheless, this is karma.
This White Snake had human lives on its conscience, which Heaven did not allow it to break through.
With today’s event, it might deter other Great Demons for the time being.
Lin Xiaoyan was sent to the hospital.
Despite the doctors’ numerous efforts, Lin Xiaoyan’s temperature remained high.
Bao Lei and the others couldn’t find the problem either, so Lin Feng had no choice but to post about it in the group chat, asking if anyone had a solution.
Xuan Shisan saw Lin Feng’s message and immediately called him to inquire about the situation.
After understanding what happened, Shi San promptly contacted Xuan Er and Xuan Shiyi and informed them about Lin Xiaoyan’s condition.
Time trickled by, and a week passed. Lin Xiaoyan remained in the intensive care unit.
She hadn’t woken up, but her fever subsided on the third day.
When Xuan Er and Xuan Shiyi arrived and did something in the room, they left, and Lin Xiaoyan’s fever came down.
But she still hadn’t regained consciousness.
Before they left, they said Lin Xiaoyan wasn’t in any life-threatening condition and that she would wake up naturally when the time came.
He Qi’an stayed at the hospital without leaving.
Nan Xi and Xiao Bo were there keeping vigil as well.
In just a week, He Qi’an appeared to be in a troubling state.
Xiao Bo, noticing the bandages on He Qi’an, reminded him, "Captain He, it’s time to change your bandages."
He Qi’an remained still, his eyes fixed on Lin Xiaoyan in the ward.
Xiao Bo turned to Nan Xi, unsure of what to do.
He silently asked Nan Xi, who glanced back at him and then looked away.
What to do? She didn’t know either.
Every day, the nurse would come by to change the dressings right where he stood.
The nurse was probably on her way...
"Captain He, it’s time for your bandages!"
Indeed, the nurse arrived with a trolley.
He Qi’an still stood there, allowing the nurse to change his bandages, his gaze never leaving the ward.
Seeing He Qi’an in this state, others sighed.
"Hello doctor, could you tell me which room Lin Xiaoyan is in?"
Suddenly, Lin Mu’s voice came from behind.
Xiao Bo and Nan Xi immediately turned and discovered that it was indeed Lin Mu and Lin Fu!
"Uncle, Auntie!"
Both of them immediately rushed over.
Seeing Nan Xi and Xiao Bo, Lin Fu and Lin Mu hurriedly inquired, "How is Yanyan? Where is she?"
Lin Fu had already spotted He Qi’an not far away.
Seeing the nurse changing his bandages, he quickly walked over.
"Xiao He, you..."
Lin Fu worriedly looked at He Qi’an’s numerous wounds.
He Qi’an turned his head, seeing Lin Fu, then glanced back at Lin Mu who was running over, momentarily stunned.
"Uncle, Auntie, how did you..."
He looked towards Nan Xi and Xiao Bo.
Nan Xi shook her head, "We didn’t tell Uncle and Auntie because we feared they’d worry, so we kept quiet."
Lin Mu had already seen her daughter lying in the hospital bed, unresponsive, and tears started to flow.
Lin Fu saw as well, frowning deeply, "What is Yanyan’s current condition?"
He Qi’an quietly explained Yanyan’s situation to Lin Fu and Lin Mu.
"Xuan Er and the others said Yanyan isn’t in life-threatening danger; she’s just in a coma. Her vital signs are all stable, but the reason for her coma...
The doctors couldn’t figure it out.
Xuan Er mentioned that she’d wake up naturally when the time is right..."
He Qi’an’s gaze returned to the girl on the hospital bed.
Lin Mu continued to weep while Nan Xi softly comforted her.
"Really, you all didn’t tell us anything. Just yesterday, I asked Xiao Nan, and Xiao Nan lied, saying you guys were in Jiang Province..."
Lin Mu looked at her daughter with concern, then turned back to Nan Xi and the others.
Nan Xi’s face was filled with guilt, "I’m sorry, Auntie, we were worried that if you learned about Yanyan’s condition, it would affect your health..."
Lin Fu sighed, "I understand your concerns. If it hadn’t been for this morning when the in-laws called asking about Yanyan, we still wouldn’t have known about this."
