Chapter 1328: Chapter 1327: Healing
Chen Tianlong didn’t waste any time, directly clutching one person’s pulse point to check the pulse. After a short while, Chen Tianlong frowned, clearly sensing something wrong. These people’s pulses were very weak, indicating blocked blood flow due to internal congestion.
Thinking of this, Chen Tianlong immediately took out a row of silver needles, then pulled out a few. After inserting one into the back, chest, head, and lower abdomen of the first person, he quickly activated the Nine Yang Celestial Dragon Technique, using Li’s Acupuncture technique to skillfully maneuver around their bodies.
Seeing that the timing was almost right, Chen Tianlong then slapped his palm on the person’s back.
"Puh...."
The person spat out a mouthful of black, clotted blood. At this time, Chen Tianlong didn’t stop his actions, knowing that the person’s internal congestion wasn’t limited to just that.
Chen Tianlong directed his powerful Qi from the man’s Dantian, smoothing out his blood and Qi flow, and slowly drove it upwards. Suddenly, Chen Tianlong pressed several acupoints on his chest and quickly moved to the man’s back, delivering another palm strike.
The man spat out blood again, but this time it was different. After spitting two more mouthfuls of black blood, the third mouthful became bright red. Chen Tianlong smiled satisfactorily and said, "Alright, next one!"
"Gah?"
Huang Lili was astonished. Could her husband really be cured with just a few moves from Chen Tianlong? Was it really that miraculous and amazing?
"Hehe, hurry up, we don’t have much time. If the bandits can’t fight the police later, they’ll retreat, and it’s inevitable they’ll discover you’ve already escaped."
Chen Tianlong analyzed, "The police are definitely here for you this time. Otherwise, this place is notorious for robberies; they wouldn’t bother coming all this way to oppose them."
"I see, I get it now."
Huang Lili agreed that Chen Tianlong made a lot of sense.
Indeed, before this, the place was very quiet, and generally, no one dared to stir up trouble here. They had been captured for over twenty days, and logically, the police should have discovered their capture in this area.
But they hadn’t come for so long, probably because there was no direct order. After all, this place lies on the border of two cities; if the local police don’t act, those in Guiyang don’t want to get involved unnecessarily.
Chen Tianlong didn’t delay further and started healing the next injured person right away...
Outside the stronghold, Zhang Yufei led her team of fewer than fifteen people. Guiyang’s police thought she was reckless and didn’t send substantial support.
Guiyang police team leader Liu Hai saw that fifteen people had entered the mountains, and if he didn’t do anything, it would be troublesome if things went wrong. So after some thought, he made a call, dispatching a squad with three police cars for support.
As for the other major forces, there was nothing he could do.
After all, these matters weren’t under their jurisdiction. The fact that he could make an exception to send reinforcements was solely out of his respect for Director Zhao Bing.
Director Zhao Bing was his senior, a legendary figure in the military that everyone admired, and now Zhang Yufei was his competent subordinate.
If something happened here in Guiyang, he wouldn’t know how to face his senior in the future.
So, Liu Hai gritted his teeth and sent fifteen people, meaning that, with everyone gathered, they would barely have over thirty people. Confronting hundreds of mountain bandits wouldn’t be easy.
Liu Hai gave a wry smile and left a junior outside to wait, then followed Zhang Yufei into the mountains. Not far from the stronghold, there appeared a narrow passage known as the One-Line Sky.
"So... Officer Zhang, do you really think a dozen of us can storm into the mountain stronghold to rescue people?" Liu Hai didn’t want to die in vain, but out of respect for Zhao Bing, he wanted to protect the officers.
"Hmm, if you’re afraid of dying, then stay back with your men. We’ll go in." Zhang Yufei was impulsive; she thought mountain bandits were just country bumpkins and couldn’t possibly handle someone like her, a special forces soldier.
"Officer Zhang, that’s not what I mean..."
"Alright, Officer Liu, I’m taking the squad in. If anything happens, please tell Director Han that I, Zhang Yufei, sacrificed myself to save others."
With that, Zhang Yufei waved, and the dozen people followed her towards the One-Line Sky. Although Zhang Yufei seemed reckless, it wasn’t true. Such a place was ideal for an ambush, and they needed to scout the situation to pass through safely.
"Are there any oxen nearby?" Zhang Yufei thought for a moment and asked.
"Oxen?"
Colleague Xu Hu was puzzled and recalled seeing two on the way here, likely from a nearby village grazing on grass. He said, "Report to the captain, we saw two on the way!"
"Alright, send two people to bring the oxen here," Zhang Yufei instructed.
Xu Hu was baffled. What was Zhang Yufei up to? Did she plan to use an ox to get them across? That seemed too far-fetched.
"Yes!" Xu Hu thought this but didn’t dare disobey the captain’s orders, so he quickly left with another colleague.
About ten minutes later, the two returned, each leading an ox.
"Captain Ma, the oxen are here. What should we do next?" Xu Hu still didn’t know what Zhang Yufei intended with the oxen.
"Tie a rope to the tail of one of them, then attach a bunch of tree branches to the rope and drive it into the One-Line Sky," Zhang Yufei began issuing orders.
Xu Hu was stunned but immediately followed Zhang Yufei’s instructions. In no time, a large water buffalo was driven forward, pulling the branches with it into the narrow path.
This was a dirt road, and since it hadn’t rained much recently, the ground was dry. As the buffalo ran, dragging large tree branches, it kicked up a cloud of dust.
Intentionally, the bandits above, upon seeing this situation, couldn’t discern if there were people inside and started firing randomly, even pushing many rocks down.
"Captain Liu, stay here with five others. After this is over, continue the same with the other ox," Zhang Yufei hurriedly instructed. "I’ll take the rest of the squad and climb to the top of the canyon for an ambush!"
"This... is a bit dangerous, isn’t it?" Liu Hai was evidently a bit timid.
"Captain Liu, if you prefer, you can go back. I’ll have my subordinates handle it." To be honest, she despised such men the most. Even she wasn’t afraid, so why was a grown man worried about so much?
"Okay... I’ll follow your plan." Liu Hai understood Zhang Yufei’s intention and, after hesitating for a moment, agreed.
Zhang Yufei didn’t waste any more time. She led the ten or so team members to climb. They needed to reach the top before the second wave of smoke dissipated; otherwise, the enemy’s focus would return to them. In such a case, they’d be in danger.
Otherwise, if they were halfway up and the enemy came over and started shooting at them, wouldn’t they be completely wiped out?
