Chapter 26: Fighting underground

The karst cave at the foot of Qiuning Mountain had no sunlight. It relied on a few oil lamps on the cave wall to provide the light source. Zhou Hao didn't know that he had been in a coma for several days and nights. However, Li Ruolan told her that according to the biological clock, she ate four meals here, which means that Zhou Hao was probably in a coma for two days.
And Li Ruolan also said that Dr. Gongsun was pretty good to her. There are white rice and dried meat, and some wild vegetables that you can't see in the city. They are delicious. There is also a mouthful of underground spring water in the cave. The quality of the water is very good. It can be drunk directly, and it is much better than any mountain spring water sold on the market.
"Who the is Doctor Gongsun?" Zhou Hao asked, he was still quite repulsive of Doctor Gongsun.
"He said that he has lived in this mountain for decades, and on weekdays he collects mountain herbs to exchange for rice, oil, salt, sugar and other items."
Zhou Hao was noncommittal, "Then is he really a doctor?"
Li Ruolan said: "I don't know. He said he was called Doctor Gongsun, but I think his medical skills are indeed very good. Originally, your right hand was fractured when we fell. Or did he fix it for you, and you too I woke up after taking his medicine soup."
Zhou Hao looked at his right hand holding the wooden board, and said to Li Ruolan: "How did we fall?"
"I don't know. I was already here when I woke up." Li Ruolan said, "According to Dr. Gongsun, the rock smashed through a thin wall of the cave, and even made us fall. But it’s fortunately so, otherwise we will be buried alive by those mountain torrents.
She pointed to that side, and Zhou Hao saw a huge rock and piles of gravel there. The wall of the cave that was punctured was also blocked by sand.
At this time, Zhou Hao was lying on a straw mat outside of Dr. Gongsun’s thatched cottage. He was seriously injured for the rest of his life. In addition to a fracture of his right hand, he also suffered internal bleeding due to a huge impact, but just like Li Ruolan As it was said, Doctor Gongsun was very skilled, and he didn't know what medicine he had given Zhou Hao to relieve this kind of internal bleeding that even major hospitals felt troublesome. However, Dr. Gongsun refused to allow Zhou Hao to enter the thatched cottage to recuperate, and he confidently said that the size of the cottage was too small to accommodate Zhou Hao.
"Ms. Li, do you want to stay here as the old man?" Zhou Hao felt very uncomfortable when he thought that Li Ruolan would stay here to serve Doctor Gongsun.
"In fact, Mrs. Gongsun is still good, but he has lived in the mountains for decades, and his temper is a little weird." Li Ruolan held a bowl of broth and slowly fed it into Zhou Hao's mouth. This is the broth she stewed by herself, because Dr. Gongsun said that Zhou Hao's body was very weak and could only use this liquid food to supplement his strength.
"Teacher, I don't want you to stay here because of it. I will have a hard life." Zhou Hao said to Li Ruolan, but Li Ruolan just shook his head and said nothing.
During the period after Zhou Hao woke up, the doctor Gongsun, whom he hated so much, did not see the shadow all day long. He occasionally walked out of one of the forks in the cave, changed Zhou Hao's medicine, or gave Li Ruolan some herbs to let her boil Give it to Zhou Hao.
Every time he faced Zhou Hao’s gritted teeth, he always showed his incomplete teeth with a smile on his face: "What, don’t you hate me? Hey, that girl will stay in the mountains to accompany me, although I I'm old, but I can live for more than ten or twenty years. If you like that girl, wait until I die to pick her up."
"Aren't you afraid that I will kill you after I recover?" Zhou Hao showed a fierce look. It was not the first time he had killed anyway.
"Then you are not afraid that I secretly drugged you?" Doctor Gongsun's smile also looked a bit gloomy, "What's more, although I am disabled, but..." He raised his left palm and slapped the ground beside Zhou Hao. .
The ground was a very hard rock, but when Doctor Gongsun retracted his left palm, a deep palm print was left there.
Upon seeing this, Zhou Hao felt a chill on his back and looked at Doctor Gongsun in surprise.
That day, the bald brother had already shown real martial arts to Zhou Hao. He could break the tree with his bare hands, but he was far worse than the old man. Zhou Hao even suspected that this old man might be the peerless master who lived in the mountains and forests.
"I don't think your head is as hard as this stone." Doctor Gongsun patted the dust on his hands. "Recover your injuries and stop thinking about crooked ideas."
I don't know if Zhou Hao's resilience is strong enough, or if Dr. Gongsun's medical skills are truly amazing, Zhou Hao can stand up after three days of recuperation, even the wooden board on his right hand can be removed.
And in the past few days, Li Ruolan has been taking care of Zhou Hao meticulously, boiled medicine, fed him, and even wiped his body. In addition, Li Ruolan had to help Doctor Gongsun cook rice and clean up the thatched cottage. I don't know if it was intentional. Doctor Gongsun really regarded Li Ruolan as a maidservant, and even asked Li Ruolan to help him squeeze his shoulders in front of Zhou Hao, which made Zhou Hao itch with hatred.
Zhou Hao knew that his mother and Wang Xijun must be very worried about them, and that the stocks that Zhao Yuqin bought for them would have to be sold out in December. If he could not go out at that time, all the money would have to be lost. Up. So Zhou Hao must escape, of course, also bring Li Ruolan.
On this day, taking advantage of Doctor Gongsun's disappearance, Zhou Hao came to the dark forks. From here, the forks are all bottomless and very dark. As Dr. Gongsun said, this underground cave extends in all directions. If you don't know the road, you will easily get lost. But Zhou Hao's best weapon is that superhuman intuition.
However, what surprised Zhou Hao was that he stood in front of a few forks for a long time, no matter how concentrated he was, there was no response.
"Is my intuition lost?" Zhou Hao muttered to himself.
At this time, Li Ruolan came over, "Zhou Hao, what are you doing here? You don't want to find the way out by yourself." She took Zhou Hao's hand, "No, you will get lost in this way. Time will never come back again. You should wait, Dr. Gongsun also said, as long as you are cured, he will take you out."
"What about you." Zhou Hao looked at Li Ruolan deeply, "I can't leave you alone."
In the dim cave, Zhou Hao's star eyes were shining and his eyes were very firm. Reaching his gaze, Li Ruolan felt an inexplicable feeling in her heart. She shook her head, "I have promised Dr. Gongsun to stay here, and that's how he saved you. Then I can't break my promise." I don't know when, she no longer calls herself "teacher".
"No!" Zhou Hao firmly grasped Li Ruolan's hand and said flatly: "I can't leave you here alone!"
"What are you two doing?" Dr. Gongsun's voice suddenly came. "What kind of love words do a teacher and a student say, and I am not afraid of people laughing." He came out of the fork on the far left and looked at Zhou Hao and Li Ruolan with a sneer. .
After hearing Dr. Gongsun's words, Li Ruolan shook her body slightly, and hurriedly let go of Zhou Hao's hand.
Zhou Hao glared at Doctor Gongsun, "Although you saved our two lives, you have no right to put Teacher Li under house arrest here!"
"Whether I have the right to have anything to do with you? Anyway, this girl has already agreed." Doctor Gongsun curled his lips and said, "If you make me unhappy, I will simply let this girl marry me. Although I can't The bridal chamber, but there is a young and beautiful wife, it’s good to see it."
"Dare you!" Zhou Hao roared.
"Why don't I dare? As long as I give her a few medicines to ensure that she will obey me." Doctor Gongsun sneered.
"I'll kill you now!" Zhou Hao rushed towards Doctor Gongsun like an irritated beast. In his anger, he felt as if there was an air current flowing in his body, which made his blood irritated. The urge to vent.
Zhou Hao's speed was extremely fast, and he rushed to Doctor Gongsun in the blink of an eye and punched him in the chest.
"Zhou Hao, don't!" Li Ruolan hurriedly stopped.
However, seeing Doctor Gongsun move his hand, he used crutches to move, and drew away sideways sensitively, Zhou Hao's right fist also hit the wall of the cave behind.
Just hearing a "bang" sound, several cracks suddenly appeared on the cave wall where Zhou Hao hit.
However, Zhou Hao had not healed from the injury of his right hand, so he touched the sore spot, which made him feel painful. However, the sharp pain also deepened his anger, and he roared and turned around to grab Dr. Gongsun.
Doctor Gongsun cracked the hard cave wall with a punch, and his eyes were not only shocked, but also a hint of surprise. Seeing him grabbing him, Dr. Gongsun let go of the crutches in his right hand and only supported the body with the crutches on the left. At the same time, he opened Zhou Hao's arm with his right hand and hit Zhou Hao's forehead with a palm.
Zhou Hao only felt a violent shock, his head ached, and Dr. Gongsun's figure in front of him was also blurred. However, he shook his head vigorously, and punched Doctor Gongsun's abdomen with even more anger.
Doctor Gongsun didn't expect that Zhou Hao would not faint even after receiving a palm of his own. He was caught off guard and was beaten by Zhou Hao. Zhou Hao didn't let him go, and rushed over before he landed.
But seeing Dr. Gongsun threw all the remaining crutches in the air, when Zhou Hao rushed over, he quickly flipped back to avoid Zhou Hao’s hand, and at the same time stretched out his palms and slapped them heavily. Zhou Hao's temples on both sides.
At this time, Zhou Hao finally fell softly, his eyes closed and fainted.
Doctor Gongsun also fell to the ground. He pressed the abdomen he had just been hit and spit out a mouthful of blood. Looking at Zhou Hao who passed out, he gasped and laughed: "I didn't expect it to be effective. The kid is really suitable, but I have to hurry up, there is not much time."
