Luo Weiping looked pale and weak. Moreover, his body was wrapped in gauze, as if he was injured. One of his hands was even hanging around his neck.
He followed behind the two white-robed men and walked directly towards me. With a weak smile on his face, he said, ”I'm guessing that you should be awake by now. How do you feel?”
Even though I was covered in a thick quilt and the warm air conditioner was blowing over my head, I was shivering and trying to open my mouth to say something to Luo Weiping, but instead I let out a hoarse sound and my throat was very dry.
At this moment, Luo Weiping poured a glass of water from the table in front of me and brought it to my mouth. I drank it all in one gulp.
”Don't worry, your injuries aren't light. Do you know how many days you've been unconscious?” Luo Wei Ping pulled over a chair and sat in front of me, still smiling as he asked.
I coughed dryly. With a hoarse voice, I asked, ”How many days are you unconscious for?”
”Not much. In three days and three nights, four of your ribs have been broken. But it's still alright since they're already connected. I estimate it will take ten to fifteen days for you to get out of bed. You should just rest here.”
That long?
I fell asleep for such a long time, three days and three nights, but I didn't know it.
At this moment, I remembered something very important, so I asked, ”What exactly happened to me, why do I feel cold all the time?”
Shaking his head, he said, ”You were injured by the Branch Chief Zheng Lingye. The palm technique he used was called the Ice Palm, and it was filled with a sinister aura. Those who were hit by the Ice Palm would feel as if they had fallen into a cave of ice, and after seventy-nine days, their blood would stop flowing, and in the end, they would turn into an ice man.”
After Luo Weiping said this, my heart immediately sank. I didn't die, so I thought that surviving in the end would only mean a few more days of suffering. If that's the case, then I might as well just die there.
Thus, when I heard about this matter, I didn't say anything and just remained silent.
Perhaps Luo Weiping thought that I would ask him, but I remained silent, which made him suspicious. He asked, ”Why don't you ask me if there's any other way to save you?”
Whether or not I can survive will depend on my luck. If I can survive, you will naturally say that I can't survive, and I can only gladly accept that all of this is fate's doing. ” I said faintly.
Luo Weeping laughed bitterly and shook his head, saying, ”You are truly worthy of being a disciple of the Accomplished Faction. You do things with such ease, to the point where you even view life and death with such indifference.”
After pausing for a moment, Luo Weeping continued, ”The other person who has been hit by the Ice Cold Fist like you is the team leader of the Tian Huai City Special Cases Investigation Team, Li Runjie. He is slightly more injured than you, and he is still in the Intensive Care Unit. This time, Sui Xiong and I were caught off guard and suffered heavy losses. ”
