He collapsed halfway down the road, exhausted. People around him hurried by, but no one paid him any attention. On this planet, no one would care about someone who suddenly falls down; it was perfectly normal. Cheng Anlang's face was covered in dust. He looked at the hurried feet passing by, lay down on the ground to rest for a while, then forced himself to crawl back, leaving a trail of blood on the ground.
After climbing back to his shabby little house, Cheng Anlang locked the door and used the cabinet to block it. He swallowed a few useless pills, not wanting to go straight to bed and get them dirty, so he took out the pills from the cabinet and lay on the floor, sprinkling them on his back. He couldn't see where the pills were, so he just went by feel. If it hurt terribly, it meant the pills had been sprinkled on him; if it hurt terribly, it meant the pills hadn't been sprinkled on him yet.
After spraying the medicine, Cheng Anlang's nerves relaxed and he fainted. He thought he might have to go directly to meet someone else's faith. Unexpectedly, he was able to wake up three days later. Cheng Anlang's head was throbbing. He ate something in a daze and continued to sleep. He slept for another day before recovering. He was not in a hurry to go to the energy pile. After his body recovered a little, he went directly to find Xiao Fan, who had not died, and chopped off his thumb.
The long scar on his back has remained to this day due to improper treatment.
Chapter 48, Beast Mint
"Huh?"
Cheng Dahua nudged Cheng Anlang, who had been sitting motionless in the chair like a statue for a long time. Cheng Anlang turned his head and looked at Cheng Dahua, as well as Yaya, Xigua, and Luosifen, who were standing there dumbfounded: "What do you want to say?"
Cheng Dahua licked her lips with her tongue, Ye Zi pointed to her mouth and smacked her lips twice.
"Aww!"
It's dinnertime!
Cheng Anlang stared at Cheng Dahua: "That's all?"
Cheng Dahua was overjoyed. What more could she possibly want?!
"Aww!"
Add more meat!
Cheng Anlang: "..."
He then asked the lizards, "And you... what do you want to say..."
The lizard's mind was filled with images of Cheng Anlang chopping off people's fingers. In the past, when they fought on the battlefield, after lightning and fire, people would either be covered in black soot or turn to ash... Including Zhang Mingyu, who was either bombarded by mechs or killed with long-range guns, chopping at such close range with a knife, with blood splattering directly on him...
Seeing that Xigua didn't speak, Cheng Anlang exhaled, closed his eyes, and stammered, "I, I'm actually not like that... I only act that way with that kind of person, not often... If... if you can't accept it..."
Before he could finish speaking, Duck suddenly took flight, its wing clamping onto Lizard's claw and pulling it forward. Lizard stumbled, caught off guard. Duck held onto Lizard's claw, then swiftly slashed it with its other wing, letting out a haughty, strange cry, like a villain.
Lizard: "..."
It thought for a moment, then let out a sound that resembled a scream.
Cheng Anlang: "..."
Alright, he knew these mutated beasts had erratic thought processes and didn't take this kind of thing seriously at all...
Cheng Anlang pinched the duck's beak as it laughed wildly, thought for a moment, and then said, "Don't copy me blindly, it's not a good thing."
"puff……"
The duck's beak was pinched, so it couldn't make a normal sound.
"Croak!"
The lizard spoke for it: You're amazing!
Cheng Anlang looked at their admiring expressions: "..."
Cheng Anlang first set out dinner for them, and was about to pick up the duckling to take it to the bathroom when his communicator rang. It was Zhang Mingyu…
Cheng Anlang couldn't quite describe his feelings. He paused for a moment, then answered the call.
Zhang Mingyu asked softly, "Are you alright?"
Cheng Anlang: "...I'm fine."
Zhang Mingyu: "I will handle this matter. It may require... checking the surveillance video of you from when you were on the garbage planet."
"Um……"
Cheng Anlang was actually a little reluctant, because it would be too embarrassing...
"You can adjust it... Do it however you like, it's fine with me..."
"Yes, don't worry."
"good……"
The next day, a new video appeared online, showing Xiao Fan sending various stalkers to ambush Cheng Anlang, employing all sorts of cunning tactics, but omitting the part where he slashed Cheng Anlang's back.
"How shameless! Either fight fair and square, or what kind of skill is it to ambush from behind!"
"I'd be furious too, okay? Cheng Anlang is already very good-tempered!"
"These two are equally bad, they've both gotten into this mess over something so trivial."
"Chopping off your finger is wrong too..."
Cheng Anlang went to class, while Cheng Dahua still followed Xigua to the advanced combat zone. Tong Ban came over and said, "Is that really you in the video? You... do you often do this on your trash planet?"
Cheng Anlang glanced at him and nodded: "Yeah."
"Then..." Tong Ban asked, "did he...do something else even worse?"
Cheng Anlang glanced at him again and nodded: "Mm..."
Just as public opinion online was divided, another part of the video surfaced. In the video, Xiao Fan's men approached stealthily from behind, step by step, and finally raised their hands high, revealing their ferocious faces, before slashing down, causing blood to spurt out!
"Holy crap! Holy crap! What is this?! I didn't even dodge it and it just split in two!"
