Such severe injuries, suddenly exposed... Zhang Xiaotao and Yan Hua were alright, but the others, the elderly couple, and even the three women standing to the side, couldn't help but gasp!
This young man, bearing such horrific injuries, had just displayed incredible power, effortlessly killing so many thugs and protecting them...
An ordinary person with such injuries would probably have collapsed long ago.
"water!"
Tang Ying uttered a single word quickly. Zhang Xiaotao, who was standing next to her, was taken aback at first, but she vaguely guessed what was going on. Although she didn't know what this Japanese girl was up to, judging from her appearance, she seemed to have a way to treat Chen Xiao's injury.
water?
Zhang Xiaotao immediately responded, jumped up quickly, and ran towards the cave exit as fast as she could. A short while later, she returned, holding a conch shell she had picked up from the beach that morning. It had been cleaned beforehand and was intended to be used to hold water.
She ran to the puddle to fetch some fresh water and handed it to Tang Ying. Tang Ying took it without looking up, only glancing at it. Although it was fresh water, it was rainwater that had accumulated over the past few days. Since it was an open puddle, it was naturally difficult to keep it clean. Moreover, after several days of fetching water, the water inevitably contained some dirt and other debris. Tang Ying couldn't help but frown: "This water... is not clean."
Zhang Xiaotao moved her lips slightly: "On the island... there are only..."
She wanted to explain, but Tang Ying didn't have the patience to listen. She quickly used the water from the conch shell to wash Chen Xiao's wound.
During the cleaning, Chen Xiao's wounds were inevitably touched. Chen Xiao had been unconscious, but the pain woke him up again. However, he was clearly not fully conscious, and his eyes were still unfocused.
Tears welled in Tang Ying's eyes, but her movements were swift and practiced. She quickly poured half a bottle of cell repair fluid onto Chen Xiao's most severe wounds, gently massaging them to ensure the fluid penetrated. After a moment's thought, she forcefully pried open Chen Xiao's mouth and poured the remaining half bottle of fluid into his throat.
"Okay." Tang Ying was covered in sweat, not from exhaustion, but from nervousness. Although Zhang Xiaotao didn't understand what she meant, seeing the fireworks beside her clearly relieved, she calmed down as well.
After Tang Ying stood up, she glanced back at Zhang Xiaotao, then opened her mouth and said, "He..."
She had barely uttered a single word when the Japanese girl suddenly swayed and collapsed limply to the ground.
Chapter 159 of the main text: [Sea Siren]
Tang Ying's sudden dizziness startled Zhang Xiaotao, who quickly went to hug her. She felt that the girl's body was light as a feather, and she clenched her teeth even more.
Fireworks looked down and breathed a sigh of relief: "It's nothing, she's just thirsty. Give her some water, but don't feed her anything yet. Once she wakes up, give her some crab meat."
It turns out that Tang Ying had been adrift at sea for several days, relying entirely on her rigorous training since childhood to survive. She had no food or water, yet she barely managed to live, which was incredibly lucky. She had just been rescued from the sea by those thugs, and after waking up, she immediately killed someone and rushed all the way here to treat Chen Xiao's injuries. All of this was sustained by a surge of intense emotion, and now that the initial excitement had worn off, she naturally couldn't hold on any longer.
At this moment, the other women in the cave dared not stand idly by any longer. They hurriedly came up and frantically poured some water into Tang Ying's mouth, then helped her lie down next to Chen Xiao to rest.
The Japanese girl fainted suddenly, but woke up quickly as well. She had only drunk a couple of sips of water when she opened her eyes a short while later. At this moment, all the fatigue she had suppressed for days rebounded, leaving her extremely weak. She whispered, "Be careful... at sea... there's danger... there's a... demon..."
At sea? A demon?
The Japanese girl's seemingly random remark stunned everyone. Several people, including Zhang Xiaotao, were taken aback for a moment before dismissing it as just the ramblings of a girl who had fainted.
However, Yan Hua's expression changed, and she lowered her head and remained silent, seemingly lost in thought. But because she kept her head down, no one could see the worry in her eyes!
Meanwhile, the last three thugs on the beach were on the verge of collapse. They were like frightened birds, especially the white leader, who had lost all his former ferocity.
The three of them looked at each other for a few moments, then fell silent. They then saw the corpse on the ground, the one whose throat Tang Ying had supposedly slit.
The same thought crossed everyone's mind: Could this be a dream?
That young man on the island, that killing god, was terrifying enough! They finally figured out his weakness—his immobility prevented him from hunting them down—and thought they could finally breathe a sigh of relief. But then, another ruthless female killing god, equally cunning and elusive, appeared.
The most ironic thing is that the female assassin was rescued from the sea by them.
"Boss..."
One of the guys called out timidly, only to find that the white man had completely lost his fierce demeanor and looked utterly bewildered.
"Boss, we..."
"Shut up!" the white man cursed, but his shouts were no longer frightening; they carried a hint of helpless weakness: "What else can we do! This damned island! Do you think we can fly up there?"
This is unbelievable!
Before, seeing only a few weak women on the island, I wished it were as small as possible. But now… there are two terrifying killers on the island. I secretly wish the island were bigger. If it were a large island, I could find a place to hide. Perhaps then, I might still have a chance to survive…
Just as the white man was in turmoil, he suddenly felt a companion tug at him. He was already terrified, and the touch almost made him collapse. Coming to his senses, he couldn't help but get angry and said, "What are you doing!"
"Look! At sea... there are people coming again..."
A guy next to me was pointing out to sea.
Looking up into the distance, I saw it was true!
They found a girl at sea, thinking she was a fat sheep falling from the sky, but she turned out to be a murderous mother dragon!
And this time...
When the three of them looked at the figure on the sea, they were all stunned!
It's quite obvious that the person we saw at sea this time was definitely not a "fat sheep"!
On the vast blue waves, a broken wooden plank could be seen drifting in the distance. The broken plank was even smaller than the sampan that Tang Ying had been holding earlier.
On the wooden board was a human figure!
Yet, despite being on a tiny, broken plank of wood on the vast, boundless sea, the figure exuded an air of effortless ease and leisure. The person appeared to be a woman, evident in the graceful curves of her body.
What's strange is that this woman, standing leisurely on the wooden board, appears to be completely naked from a distance, despite her curvaceous figure being clearly visible.
The wooden plank beneath their feet, though seemingly floating on the sea, glided along at incredible speed, as if propelled by some unknown force... as if it had an invisible, stealthy engine installed behind it! Its speed was definitely comparable to that of a speedboat!
The woman stood on the wooden plank, her long hair flowing, like a siren from legend, and in the distance, one could even hear a strange and melodious song...
singing?
