"Do you want to go back to New East? Isn't it good here? Master Wang is also from New East. Can't you see how well he lives here? There are opportunities everywhere. Now that you don't have anything, what can you do even if you go back? Don't overthink. It's not too late to go back after making some money." Nathan said indifferently, and the car sprinted all the way south.
"But, can I return to the Red Lotus? Davis will definitely demolish the Red lotus." Chase had no money, and Nathan refused to help him return home from the north. Even though he passed the border, how could he go home?
"Of course, you can't go back to the Red Lotus. I have my own arrangements." Nathan said.
Finally, they ran out. Chase didn't know what would happen to Master Wang, but he believed he got a way to get out. Otherwise, he would not make such arrangements.
He thought of Donna again. What would happen to this fat wife whom he was forced to marry? Chase was a little worried. Although he was distraught and even hateful when he was forced to marry her, it was still worrying to fall in a perverted place like Horseskin. In any case, they were a couple who had lived together for more than a year.
"Ouch..." Chase finally sensed the pain after his nerves were relaxed. The car bumped up and hit his wound, and he couldn't help groaning.
"Damn it! Why did I forget that you were hurt." Nathan heard Chase's groan and blamed himself.
"It's okay. Just a shot in the arm. I have stopped the bleeding." Chase said.
"Lynx, help Chase." Nathan said, "Chase, this is my brother Lynx."
Lynx didn't smile and pulled off one of Chase's sleeves with a hiss.
He took out a flashlight from his backpack and looked at the wound. "It's okay for the time being. We have to find a place to help him take out the bullet as soon as possible. Otherwise, the inflammation will cause trouble." Lynx patted Chase's back and said, "He's not bad. He can run so far without crying after being shot. "
f**k, what is he saying? Do you cry if you get shot? I'm not a p***y.
Two hours after the car was speeding, it entered a small town, turned a few alleys in the town, and stopped at a small bar. Chase was already sweating from the pain, and his whole body was soaked with sweat. If it weren't for him to be a martial arts practitioner and had a foundation in internal power, he would have fainted long ago.
"Are you going to find Red Snake?" Lynx glanced at the closed bar and said.
"I really can't think of anyone else here. Although there is a place to stay in the city, it is Davis's base. Otherwise, we will have to run for another two hours. I am afraid Chase can't hold it." Nathan said.
"I can't believe Red Snake. I suggest not to find him." Lynx said.
"What should I do?" Nathan was very anxious.
"Can you recognize herbs? If you can, help me find a sharp knife." Chase said, clutching his wound and gnawing his teeth.
"I know some. Tell me." Lynx said.
"Polygunum Chinese, Asclepias curassavica Flaviflora, Murraya exotica, Panax stipuleanatus..." Chase said the names of several herbal medicines.
"Hehe, I happen to know some. But now it's dark, it's hard to find." Lynx said.
"Outside the town, on the mountainside, it should be easy to find some before winter. I believe the plants here are the same as those in the New East's Bulguland area." Chase said.
"Chase, what do you want to do? This is a gunshot wound. It is very troublesome and you may die if infected." Nathan said.
"Don't worry. I have to go back to New East to find my younger sister. I don't want to die. I am somewhat experienced in herbal medicines. Go." After more than two hours of suffering, the blood
shed a lot, and Chase was really weak.
Then, the car parked on a wasteland on the edge of the mountain. Nathan and Lynx were both looking for herbs. Chase sat in the car quietly.
At the end of autumn, there was a bit of coolness in the wild in the middle of the night, and many insects were active before the winter, looking for places to die or look for objects to mate.
The moon was fading, and there were a few cold stars in the deep sky. Chase stretched his head from the car window to look around. In the dark night and the mist, the distant mountains blurred, and nearby mountains also looked hazy. Occasionally, there were lights on the hillsides and ridges. These lights were Lynx and Nathan, who were looking for herbs. The night in the countryside here was not much different from the night around Hope Village, his hometown. In a daze, Chase thought he was back in Hope Village.
"Chase, still two left..." Chase was about to crawl on the car window to sleep when Nathan and Lynx came back.
"Okay, wash and smash. Nathan, give me a dagger." Chase felt weak all over.
Lynx shone a flashlight on his face and found that his face was blue and white. He reached out and touched his forehead. It turned out to be cold.
"It doesn't matter. I know what's going on. I should have a fever later. Quickly, give me the dagger, mash me the medicine, after the bullet is taken out, apply for the medicine, and find some internal medicine for me, and I will be fine." Chase was weak.
"Nathan, you go to smash the medicine. I will help him get out the bullet." Lynx pulled out the dagger and then dismantled two bullets to pour out the gunpowder, light it, and simply disinfect the dagger.
In fact, it didn't help much, and it's just a psychological comfort.
Chase finally passed out in a coma. Lynx took out the bullet and put medicine on him. Later, Chase really started to have a fever.
Nathan was cleaning the car, and Lynx lit a cigarette.
"This boy is good. He is a man. How did you know him?" Lynx said.
"He saved my life." Nathan got into the car and started it. "There should be a pharmacy in town. Look for some anti-fever medicine."
"Well, it's best to get a few anti-inflammatory injections. I'm afraid these herbs won't have any effect. They are all common roadside plants." Lynx smiled, "f**k. Someone actually uses raw herbs to treat gunshot wounds. What a genius."
At dawn, Chase woke up. He was much more spirited, and the high fever had gone. As long as the wound was not infected, the rest he needed to do was to heal it. Infection was definitely not possible. Chase was very knowledgeable about the use of herbs. What's more, Nathan just smashed the town clinic's door and found a fever-reducing needle to inject him.
"Nathan, where are we going?" Chase said, looking at the environment outside the car window.
"We have arrived in Goldwin. Lynx is familiar with this area. Go to his friend to heal your injuries." Nathan said.
"Okay, I will follow Lynx," Chase said.
Chase was very grateful to Wang Lu and Nathan for being able to escape from Horseskin. He knew very well that if they hadn't rescued them, even if he weren't killed by Tobby, he would be tortured to death by Davis. In the end, even his soul would have been tortured by Baxter and refined away.
Goldwin was the capital city of the New South Kingdom. Its suburban junction was also a dead-end in public security, and management was relatively chaotic. Such a place was a paradise for the gangsters, whom people also called them people from Jianghu, and there were all kinds of Jianghu people.
Chase was initially not a Jianghu, but since he followed his "cousin" Rennie Davis to Goldhale, he had been one of them.
Although the world of Jianghu was full of grievances and dangers, there were also wonders, fantasies, and charms.
