Chapter 67

Ch67 – Xiao Yu and Water Monsters

After He Yun Chen accompanied Ruan Tang to the hospital, he said to him, "I still need to discuss some details of the case with Zhou Jing. You go on ahead, I will be waiting for you in the car. When you're ready to leave just come look for me."

"Okay, sorry to trouble you, Chen Ge." Ruan Tang knew that He Yun Chen was doing this for him and he felt very grateful.

When he went upstairs, he found that Ruan Yu had already been taken out of the medical cabin by the nurse and re-laid on the soft bed.

Ruan Yu saw his brother standing at the door and a pair of light brown eyes suddenly lit up. He cried out happily, "Brother!"

Ruan Tang also couldn't help but to let out a little smile. He walked to stand beside Ruan Yu and reached out and rubbed his soft hair. "Brother is here. Xiao Yu, are you hungry?"

"Hungry!" The child nodded hard.

He pulled out a stool and sat down. When he opened the lid of the preservation box, and the domineering smell of the meat immediately rushed out. The nurse who had been tidying up the medical cabin suddenly stopped. He gulped and turned his head. He was eyeing the preservation box so intensely that it was scary.

"First, eat the vegetable, it's good for your health." Ruan Tang first gave his younger brother some of the garlic amaranth. The preservation effect of the container was very good. The dish was still hot. Ruan Yu obediently took a bite of the dish and chewed quickly just like a little hamster. It was very cute.

Ruan Tang couldn't help but pinch the child's cheek and ask, "Is it delicious?"

"It's delicious!" Ruan Yu liked the savory taste of the tender amaranth. After swallowing his mouthful, he immediately opened his mouth for more.

Before, Ruan Yu always relied on the injection of nutrient solutions to maintain his life. Thus, his stomach was still quite fragile. It was his first time eating natural food yesterday, so Ruan Tang didn't dare to feed him too much today. After feeding him three spoonfuls of the amaranth, he started to feed him the soup. The delicious bone soup tasted even better than yesterday's chicken soup. Ruan Tang used a small spoon to dig out the bone marrow in the bone and feed it to Ruan Yu. The rich and mellow taste completely conquered him, and the soft radish was even more delicious than meat. He very happily ate bite after bite.

However, the child's appetite was relatively small, and soon his small stomach began to bulge. Although his mouth still wanted to eat his stomach had begun to protest.

There is still a little less than half of the soup left in the preservation box. He was about to cover the lid of the preservation box when he met the fierce gaze of the nurse.

Ruan Tang: "…"

When the nurse met eyes with Ruan Tang, his entire face flushed red in embarrassment. But he couldn't move his gaze from the preservation box. It was shameful to covet a child's food, but that smell was simply too tempting. He really couldn't control himself!

The two eyes, one large pair stared the small pair of eyes and for a moment, they were at a stalemate. Suddenly, they heard Ruan Yu's gentle voice say, "Brother Wang, do you want to drink the soup my brother made? It's super delicious!"

"Yeah… I, can I taste it?" Nurse Wang gulped and asked with his cheeks burning hot. He was still unable to control his desire to eat.

"If you don't mind…"

"Of course, I don't mind!" Wang nurse unhesitatingly answered. He eagerly took the preservation box, and he didn't even bother with a spoon, directly drinking the soup from the box.

! ! ! ! !

It's so delicious!! Was this rumored taste of natural food?! No wonder the Academy of Sciences was strongly advocating its use. This was thousands of times better than nutrient solutions!

He held the preservation box and was reluctant to swallow. He wished that the soup inside would never run out.

But this was obviously impossible. After drinking the soup, he reluctantly restrained the urge to lick the bottom of the box and returned the empty box to Ruan Tang. "Thank you for your hospitality. Your craftsmanship is amazing."

"I'm glad that you liked it. I would like to thank you and Dr. Tang for always taking care of my younger brother." If it weren't for Dr. Tang and other medical staff doing their utmost to provide treatment for Ruan Yu, he was afraid that the child wouldn't have been able to hold on until he arrived. Therefore, Ruan Tang was very grateful to them.

"You are too polite, we were just doing our…" Suddenly there was loud thunder coming from outside.

Nurse Wang's expression suddenly changed. He quickly walked out of the ward and looked out through the window next to the corridor. Sure enough, the sky was already gloomy, and the clear sky was replaced by a layer of dense black clouds.

"Not good, it will rain soon. You must not leave the hospital. Things are going to get busy!"

"Wait a minute, may I ask if there is anything special about this rain?" Ruan Tang looked dubiously at the nurse who looked as though he was facing a formidable foe. Wasn't this just rain? Why did he have such a nervous expression?

Wang nurse remembered that they came from the capital star so they didn't know that the normal situation on the 19th planet. He replied hurriedly, "Most of our planet is covered by water. When it rains, the water level will rise rapidly. The planet is prone to flash floods, and there are water monsters in the water, which could injure people. So we have to prepare for flood prevention. We can't let the water into the hospital!"

"I see. Please don't let me delay you."

Water monster…?

Ruan Tang couldn't help but walk to the window and watch the sky forming a dense mass of black clouds. The sea was already raging and the strong gales were whistling mournfully.

Ruan Tang didn't know what the monsters here were like, and he didn't know their fighting level. Although he knew that He Yun Chen was very powerful, he couldn't help but worry that he might be attacked and injured in his defenseless state.

Looking at Nurse Wang hurriedly leaving, he quickly opened his light brain to contact He Yun Chen. If the water rose after it started raining, He Yun Chen's car may be flooded. Even if it wasn't flooded, the water monster in the water may also be dangerous. He had to leave his car and seek shelter in the hospital.

However, He Yun Chen must still be talking to Zhou Jing, and he couldn't get through. Listening to the thunder and seeing the flashes of lightning outside, Ruan Tang couldn't help but be extremely worried.

"Xiao Yu, do you remember Brother He from yesterday? He's downstairs and I'm going to go and look for him. Can you wait here for your brother?" He pushed down the anxiety in his heart and gently asked Ruan Yu.

"Okay, brother." Ruan Yu nodded obediently. He was no longer as worried as he had been when he first saw his brother that his brother would leave him. He believed that his brother would surely come and look for him.

Ruan Tang kissed his brother's soft forehead and quickly ran downstairs.

At this time, it had already begun to rain outside. Big fat raindrops fell down and slammed against the walls and steps and immediately began to splash everywhere. Ruan Tang's calves were soaked and covered in mud. Not long after, water began pooling on the ground. There seemed to be dark shadows moving back and forth in the water. They were converging into larger and larger swats, whizzing about in groups. Ruan Tang was thoroughly alarmed.

He Yun Chen's car was stopped on the road outside the hospital. Through the momentary flash of lightning, Ruan Tang could see a person sitting inside.

"Chen Ge! Chen Ge!" He shouted loudly, but the sound of the rain and thunder drowned out his voice completely.

Ruan Tang didn't care that was being soaked through. He charged into the rain, ran to the side of the car and knocked forcefully against the window.

"A'Tang, are you…?" He Yun Chen heard the movement and hurriedly opened the door. He was startled to see Ruan Tang completely drenched.

"Follow me!" Ruan Tang didn't bother explaining much and hurriedly dragged He Yun Chen towards the hospital.

He Yun Chen hurriedly hung up the call and ran with him. When they were about to enter through the hospital door, Ruan Tang suddenly felt pain on his ankle. He cried out and he was about to drop onto the ground if it weren't for a large hand dragging him into He Yun Chen's bosom.

"A'Tang, what's the matter? Did you sprain your ankle?" He Yun Chen asked anxiously.

"No, it seems like I was bitten by something…" He leaned against He Yun Chen's chest and reached for his ankle. After retrieving his hand, he saw it smeared in red.

When he saw this, He Yun Chen's pupils immediately shrank. With hyper focus, he carried Ruan Tang in his arms and rushed towards the hospital.

The hospital staff had already urgently installed the flood control facilities. A half-meter-high wall had risen from the ground, and the hospital has been completely enclosed. Pumping equipment had begun to operate, and the water in the wall was being pumped out.

He Yun Chen entered the hospital lobby with Ruan Tang in his arms. The medical staff in the hall noticed the blood on his leg. They immediately came out with a push-bed and let He Yun Chen lay Ruan Tang on it. They then cut open Ruan Tang's pants leg to reveal the bloody and mangled ankle. The medical staff immediately rinsed his wound. After the blood had been washed away, they saw a wound that looked as though it was sliced by a sharp weapon. The wound was not small, almost covering half his ankle.

After the medical staff cleaned and disinfected his wound, they applied it with a blue spray. At a speed visible to the naked eye, his wound was completely covered in blue film.

"There's no problem. Wait until the wound absorbs the medicine and in three days your wound should be healed."

"Thank you, doctor."

The doctor waved his hand and motioned for him to pay the treatment fee directly to the cashiering office.

He Yun Chen actually wanted to ask the doctor how he was injured. But at this time, someone braved the heavy rain and charged into the hospital. This person looked much stronger than Ruan Tang, but his wounds were also more serious. Not only did his legs have so many scratches, but his arms and back were also covered in wounds.

"Quick! Lie down!" Doctors and nurses were clearly not surprised by this situation and soon began to treat this person.

"Water monster! A lot of monsters!" cried out the man in terror.

"You're safe, it's okay," the doctor said reassuringly, while he quickly dealt with the wounds.

"Water monster…?" He Yun Chen couldn't help but frown slightly.
