The Surgeon's Studio Chapter 668 - Men Are Determined Even In Death

Chapter 668: Men Are Determined Even In Death

Looking at the dense lead clouds and drizzling rain, Zheng Ren’s fist in mid-air trembled a little. But in just a moment he immediately steadied himself as if he was undergoing surgery.

Men are determined even in death.

Watching the rescue helicopter leave, Zheng Renyang did not slowly lower his arm until the shadow of the rear wing disappeared into the clouds.

It was as if that person was still there, saluting and punching him before flying away with the helicopter that brought endless hope to the people on this isolated island.

Su Yun did not know what had happened but his sharp intuition told him that something was off.

When Zheng Ren turned around, he asked, “Boss, what’s wrong? I feel that you’re not in the right state of mind right now.”

“It’s nothing,” Zheng Ren said lightly. There was no grief or pa.s.sion, only a kind of unexplainable strength.

Su Yun pursed his lips and did not say anything.

He knew how his boss was. Usually, no matter how much he teased him, he would be fine. But at this moment, Zheng Ren’s mental state was obviously not right. It was better…to forget it.

As for what exactly happened, he would know sooner or later. It was not the appropriate time now.

“Where’s Chief Zhao?” Zheng Ren asked.

“There are a few injured people with chest injuries. They went to work after receiving supplies,” Su Yun said.

“Chest injuries?”

“Wasn’t there an aftershock just now? A few team members were injured and are undergoing emergency treatment. It’s not critical. I just went to take a look. The injuries weren’t serious,” Su Yun said. He and Zheng Ren were really lucky.

They were actually fine in that kind of dangerous place.

The word ‘sacrifice’ could barely touch him.

No one desired to sacrifice. All soldiers wanted to be able to return to their hometown after the war ended.

But sometimes, they had to make a sacrifice.

There was only a slight difference between life and death.

Just as he was about to go and check on the treatment of the injured, Zheng Ren suddenly heard someone shouting something. The voice came from afar and broke the silence.

Turning his head to look, Zheng Ren saw a surviving villager jumping continuously and shouting something.

The people around him were a little stunned at first. Then, they followed his gaze and shouted excitedly.

Could it be that the rescue team had come up?

Zheng Ren followed his gaze and saw a few spots of light that were like fireflies appearing in the darkness. There were not many of them but in the dark sky, they were particularly dazzling.

They were not fireflies. Fireflies were not as bright.

They were like the morning star, signaling that the darkness would eventually pa.s.s. They tore apart the night’s curtain, stepped through the rain curtain as they pressed forward.

The light continued to increase and gradually spread.

That side…seemed to be a collapsed mountain ridge. Was there a road? Zheng Ren vaguely remembered that there was no road there, only countless jagged rocks. The students had sent people to explore the road. It was possible to walk through it but it was extremely dangerous.

The light spots did not care whether it was dangerous or not. They continued to spread and appear.

The little things added up just like a spark that gradually became a prairie fire. They were like countless bright stars, covered by the fog in the distance.

“They’re here,” Su Yun muttered, his voice a little hoa.r.s.e.

“Yes, they’re here.” Zheng Ren felt that his eyes were dry from the strong wind and there were sand in them. He blinked a few times and slowly stabilized his emotions.

More and more cheers rang out, as more and more survivors jumped up in joy. More fine stars seemed to have broken out of the darkness and appeared in the distant horizon.

Over time, they became brighter and brighter.

A long, sparkling ‘dragon’ meandered forward. Although it was slow, it would not stop.

Suddenly, Zheng Ren saw a blinking dot of light landing far away.

His heart suddenly clenched.

This was a long-distance warrior who had fallen into the mountain stream.

However, the long dragon did not stop, continuing to move forward. Along the way, the dragon suffered countless injuries which made him stronger and more fearless.

Similar incidents continued to occur. The faint light was like a swaying shadow, showing the team’s majestic and firm determination.

They did not dare to walk this kind of mountain path during the day because it was too steep and narrow. Furthermore, it was now dark. Zheng Ren did not dare to imagine what kind of casualties the team had suffered.

However!

No matter what difficulties they faced, they could not stop the spread of light spots!

No matter what dangers they faced, they would still continue to advance!

“Boss, it was not a wasted trip. I feel like my previous worldview has been shattered,” Su Yun muttered as he looked at the bright stars in the sky.

“Hehe.” Zheng Ren smiled faintly. “In their eyes, we are the same.”

“Is that so?”

“Yes. All sacrifices will be rewarded in the end.” Zheng Ren thought of the sound of the propeller and the rough figure holding the newborn child in his arms.

He clenched his fists tightly. They drenched in sweat but full of strength.

Zhao Yunlong heard the joyful shouts. After he finished suturing, he walked out of the simple ‘operating theatre’.

As he walked, he took off the sterile gloves that were covered in blood.

When he saw this scene, he was stunned.

Really… Had they really arrived?

Yes, they had!

He had been thinking about the troops coming up from behind all the time but when he really saw them, the whole situation felt unreal.

They really came. They really were here.

Zhao Yunlong quickly suppressed the fluctuation of his emotions and personally brought people to support the troops.

Su Yun did not go. He just stood quietly beside Zheng Ren and said in a low voice, “Boss, our mission is complete, right?”

“This mission is considered complete, but it’s not the final victory yet.” Although Zheng Ren knew that Su Yun only needed a word of comfort, he was still rigid.

“Then where are we going?”

“We have to ask Zhao Yunlong about this. When they come, we’ll ask more.”

“Aren’t you going to Huaxi? They have professional equipment there.”

“Huaxi has a lot of amazing doctors. If we go there, I won’t be of much use.” Zheng Ren made some plans when he was bored and said then, “I’m thinking that many patients who need amputation have been trapped for several days. Their tissue muscles are probably filled with blood and edema. Even if we bring them to Huaxi, we can still barely perform the surgery. However, we can either expand the wound and cut off more tissues, or we can simply perform embolectomy first. As for the patients with severe pelvic fractures and retroperitoneal hematoma, I don’t think I have to explain further.”

“Emergency treatment? You’re using interventional treatment on them.”

“I’m the best at it. I can perform general surgery but compared to Huaxi’s chief physician, there’s nothing special about it,” Zheng Ren said honestly.

He had said it again! Su Yun really wanted to curse him with a sentence full of sarcasm.

However, when he thought about how Zheng Ren said that he was the best at interventional surgery… He was telling the truth.

Afterward, he would wait until he knew the overall situation and carefully thought about it before he said anything else.

It looked very close, but they were actually still quite a distance away. Zhao Yunlong brought the people who had explored the road during the day to greet the troops.

After a long time in the darkness, a long, winding dragon finally met up with the rest of them.

There was no longer a need to continue their sacrifice. Zheng Ren smiled.
