Chapter 99 It's not that I'm not smart, it's that they're too stupid.
Where am I?
Wasn't I just performing surgery on a patient? Wait, why would the hospital director ask me to perform surgery? I clearly...
Doctor Lei's thoughts were in a mess, and it took him a while to realize that he had returned to the Great Qian Dynasty.
Thinking about everything that happened after I came back, I felt a pang of sadness.
No, I have to go back. I absolutely have to go back. Back to the modern world.
Dr. Lei barely opened one eye to observe his surroundings. He couldn't remember anything that had happened before, or where he was now.
Before me stood a man dressed in tattered clothes, dragging his legs and walking in a very strange posture.
Wait, why does this person have two wooden legs?
Dr. Lei instinctively took a deep breath.
The man turned his head and stared at him with lifeless, wooden eyes.
He remembered, he remembered everything. Doctor Lei gripped a pill tightly in his left hand. The last thing he did before falling unconscious was to prepare a second Inner Breath Pill. If everything wasn't over when he woke up, he would take another one!
Dr. Lei tried to calm himself down and held his breath. He kept his eyes open only a slit, not daring to close them or open them wide.
The mechanical figure shook its head, seemingly observing the presence before it with great uncertainty.
Dr. Lei hadn't fully recovered yet; his heart was beating weakly and slowly, and he felt as if his chest was about to burst open, with a general feeling of nausea and discomfort.
Just as the wooden figure's head was about to touch Dr. Lei's face, he suddenly looked in the direction of the weaving factory and ran wildly towards it like a madman.
Dr. Lei breathed a sigh of relief, propped himself up with one hand, and took two deep breaths before he felt somewhat alive again. Looking up at the sky, the eastern sky was already a little cool, but the first light of dawn had not yet appeared.
He wondered how the others were doing. After hesitating for a moment, he decided to go and check on the situation first.
Dr. Lei wanted to help, but what could he do? He was just a doctor, and he couldn't heal teammates from afar like a healer in a modern video game. At most, he could only stop the bleeding of the injured.
Just then, at the entrance of the weaving factory, Sun Ruolan was holding Niu Dadan, who was covered in wounds. Niu Dadan was already the size of a normal person, but his injuries would not heal and he was slowly bleeding. His face was as white as paper.
Sun Ruolan wasn't in much better shape; she had lost a mechanical hand, but thankfully it was made of wood and wouldn't bleed. She tore off pieces of her own clothing and desperately tried to bandage Niu Dadan, but the bleeding wouldn't stop.
Doctor Lei strode over, disregarding the fact that Sun Ruolan was barely clothed, and bent down to bandage Niu Dadan.
"Thank you, thank you so much, doctor. You must save Adan."
"Stop saying all that, just hold this down for me."
Sun Ruolan tried her best to help with one hand. She finally breathed a sigh of relief; after Mo Zhishan left, Niu Dadan had actually reached his limit. The effect of the Ruyi Jinli had long since reached its limit, but under those circumstances, if it were deactivated, they would all be torn to pieces by the mechanical puppets.
Just as Niu Dadan, who was barely holding on by sheer willpower, was about to reach his limit, all the mechanical beings rushed into the weaving factory like madmen. Sun Ruolan's own mechanical body also sensed something, as if the kite string had been cut, and a chill and fear rushed into her heart.
However, Sun Ruolan was very happy at the time, which proved that her plan should have worked.
After bandaging Niu Dadan and stuffing a few pills into his mouth, Doctor Lei was already covered in sweat. "Madam Sun, your husband is fine. He's just weak in both qi and blood, plus he has a lot of external injuries. He just needs to rest and he'll be fine."
Doctor Lei added in his mind, "It's only because my medical skills are extraordinary. If it were any other doctor in the Great Qian Dynasty, these injuries would have been fatal." However, he didn't boast much in front of his companion who was facing difficulties with him, as it would seem beneath him.
During the rescue of Niu Dadan, both men heard commotion inside the weaving factory, assuming a fierce battle was taking place. However, going there would only cause trouble; they couldn't do anything about it. Saving Niu Dadan and then leaving was the wisest course of action.
When a rooster crowed, Niu Dadan opened his eyes. The sounds from the weaving factory had stopped, and Dr. Lei even saw some of the fallen mechanical figures tumbling out of the entrance.
Sun Ruolan also felt a sense of relief, as if something had been lifted from her body. "Doctor, I hope Brother Lin wins."
"Of course I hope so too."
By the time Sun Ruolan helped Niu Dadan into the weaving factory, Doctor Lei had already gone in before them. Lin Fan inside was more seriously injured than Niu Dadan, blood gushing from his entire body. A deep wound on his shoulder exposed the bone.
But Lin Fan was in good spirits, laughing, cursing, and spitting at the air.
Sun Ruolan asked with concern, "Brother Lin, are you hallucinating again?"
Lin Fan completely ignored him and started arguing with another entity in the air.
Dr. Lei explained somewhat awkwardly, "He not only saw it, but he also argued with him, talking about all sorts of human nature. I didn't expect my brother to know philosophy."
Lin Fan spat fiercely at the jade-like foot that was being stretched towards his mouth, and cursed at Ma Sijiao, "Get out!"
Ma Sijiao smiled brightly, showing no anger whatsoever. She reached out her slender fingers to wipe the saliva off her feet. Feigning sadness, she said, "Brother Lin, I've saved you so many times, why are you still so rude to me? I'm really heartbroken, boohoo."
As she spoke, she pretended to cover her face and cry.
Lin Fan smiled. "Save me? If I die, you're finished too. As long as you're afraid of death, you'll definitely save me. No, you're just saving yourself. Don't make it sound so nice."
As if her sore spot had been touched, Ma Sijiao stopped pretending to cry and her face turned cold. "Lin Fan, you really don't know what's good for you. Why do you hate me so much? We can't break up now, and you can't get rid of me. Just accept my kindness. With my help, everything you do will go smoothly."
Upon hearing this, Lin Fan seemed to have his funny bone tickled, laughing so hard he couldn't bend over, his blood gushing out even faster, and he couldn't even speak. He only managed to stop laughing when the pain became unbearable.
As Lin Fan laughed maniacally, Ma Sijiao's gaze grew colder and her face became increasingly unpleasant. Her delicate, porcelain-doll-like face twisted with anger.
*Pfft!* A burst of blood erupted from Ma Sijiao's head, and Ma Liangcai's head emerged from it, both mouths snarling angrily, "Lin Fan, what's so funny!"
Lin Fan saw the cute and delicate little girl in front of him turn into a two-headed monster and said seriously, "Fourth Senior Brother, aren't you supposed to be very clever? Can't you guess what I'm laughing at?"
"you you you!"
The voices of Ma Liangcai and Ma Sijiao rang out one after another. Ma Liangcai's head grew larger and larger until it completely absorbed Ma Sijiao's head before stopping.
Although Ma Liangcai showed himself, he had the same lipstick as Ma Sijiao on his face and was wearing Ma Sijiao's red dress, which made him look quite strange.
"What right do you have to laugh at me! I died not because I wasn't smart enough, but because of those people, those people were all so stupid!"
