If someone were to observe closely at this moment, they would notice that the way the car was spinning in the air was exactly the same as the frequency of Zhou Ziwei's toes shaking earlier, without any difference.
The car body spun rapidly, creating an effect similar to a helicopter propeller. This generated an updraft, which strangely propelled the Audi sedan, which was suspended in mid-air, to the side and upward for six or seven meters before finally losing momentum and crashing down onto the road with a loud bang.
Instantly, all the glass in the car windows shattered, the hood was severely twisted and deformed, and thick black smoke billowed from the engine compartment.
Fortunately, both people in the car were still wearing their seatbelts. So, although the shock left them dazed and their bones nearly broken, they miraculously escaped serious injury, except for minor cuts from the broken glass.
The two screams stopped abruptly, as if by prior agreement, long after the car had fallen. Then, they frantically unbuckled their seatbelts, climbed out of the slightly warped car door, and rushed to Zhou Ziwei's side as if they had gone mad.
"Brother Zhou, how are you! Please don't die..."
"Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhou... please open your eyes, don't scare me..."
The two men patted Zhou Ziwei's face from left to right, pinched his philtrum, and pressed hard on his chest. Although they could feel that Zhou Ziwei still had a faint heartbeat and breathing, no matter how much they struggled, he showed no signs of waking up.
"Quick... where's my phone! I can't find my phone... Call an ambulance right now!" Li Yifeng searched his entire body but found that his phone was nowhere to be found. He quickly pushed Liu Xiaofei next to him and urged her urgently.
Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaofei subconsciously patted herself down and discovered that her phone was also missing.
You see, the two of them had been sitting in the car spinning in mid-air for quite a while, and probably everything that wasn't securely fastened in the car was thrown out. Only the two of them, who were wearing seatbelts, were spared. So, it would naturally take them some effort to find their phones now.
However, Liu Xiaofei quickly glared at Li Yifeng and said, "Are you an idiot?! Where are we now? There's no village in sight, no shop in sight. How long would it take for an ambulance to arrive if you called one? Besides... there probably won't be any signal in this godforsaken place. Even if we find a cell phone, it won't be of any use!"
"Oh...then...what should we do?!"
Li Yifeng has a rather rough personality. If you send him to fight criminals or arrest smugglers, he might come up with a couple of bad ideas. But asking him to rescue people is not his forte.
Upon hearing Liu Xiaofei's words, he realized they made sense and was immediately at a loss. He frantically grabbed his hair, then suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said, "I've got it... I think my instructor mentioned during police academy training... In this situation, the first thing to do is give the injured person artificial respiration... Damn, how could I be so stupid!"
After saying that, he couldn't wait to pinch Zhou Ziwei's nose with one hand, then leaned down, puckered his thick lips, and tried to bring them to Zhou Ziwei's mouth.
Volume 1, Rebirth of a Prodigy, Chapter 103: Artificial Respiration
Just as Li Yifeng and Zhou Ziwei's lips were less than a centimeter apart, Liu Xiaofei suddenly shoved Li Yifeng hard and sneered, "Get lost! Two grown men kissing like that, are you trying to disgust me to death?"
Li Yifeng also panicked, and shoved Liu Xiaofei back, angrily saying, "What time is it? This is a matter of life and death... Miss! My brother's life is more important than anything else right now, I don't care about anything else!"
After Li Yifeng finished speaking, he was about to lower his head again, but Liu Xiaofei stopped him once more.
This time, Li Yifeng really became famous. He had long regarded Zhou Ziwei as his good brother. Moreover, although what just happened felt like a dream, Li Yifeng still couldn't understand how the car that had plunged off the cliff could fly back onto the road. However, he could guess that it was related to Zhou Ziwei. The reason why Zhou Ziwei was half-dead now was probably because he was trying to save the two of them.
Li Yifeng was a man who always valued loyalty above all else. He wouldn't hesitate to risk his life for his brothers, so why would he care about anything disgusting? When he saw Liu Xiaofei repeatedly and unjustifiably preventing him from performing CPR on Zhou Ziwei, he was worried that the delay would be detrimental to Zhou Ziwei. Just as he was about to slap Liu Xiaofei aside, he was surprised to find that Liu Xiaofei had already pinched Zhou Ziwei's nose before him and leaned down without hesitation, covering Zhou Ziwei's mouth with her two rosy, peach-like lips.
So… Li Yifeng’s raised hand involuntarily stopped in mid-air. After a long while, he finally couldn’t help but cough lightly and said, “Uh… I mean… Officer Liu, do you… do you even know how to do CPR? CPR requires constantly blowing air into his lungs… but you… you’re just kissing his mouth without moving, this… is clearly just kissing my brother!”
"ah……"
Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaofei let out a soft cry, only then remembering what she had learned in police academy: artificial respiration is indeed not something that can be done simply by putting your mouth to your mouth.
She didn't know what had just happened to her. The moment her lips touched Zhou Ziwei's, she felt as if she had been electrocuted. Her whole body went limp, her mind went blank, and she almost forgot how to breathe. How could she possibly remember the steps of artificial respiration?
Only after Li Yifeng reminded her did she suddenly come to her senses. She quickly pinched her leg to keep her mind clear, then took a deep breath and forcefully blew it into Zhou Ziwei's mouth... At the same time, she kept muttering to herself: My first kiss... My first kiss is gone just like that!
After a dozen breaths were blown into Zhou Ziwei's lungs, Zhou Ziwei trembled, coughed a few times, and finally gradually woke up.
Upon hearing Zhou Ziwei's cough, Liu Xiaofei quickly sat up, her face flushed as she wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth, unable to tell which of the two had drooled. She stared nervously at Zhou Ziwei's face until she saw him weakly lift his eyelids, at which point she breathed a slight sigh of relief.
"Wow... bro, you're finally awake! Looks like the charm of a beautiful woman is really strong!" Li Yifeng exclaimed as he stepped forward, grabbed Zhou Ziwei's shoulders, and lifted him up, saying, "Come on... let me carry you to the car to rest for a while, it's windy in here!"
"Ah...stop...quick...put me down!"
Zhou Ziwei's wrists were broken, and his left leg was broken into six or seven pieces. Now, after being tormented by Li Yifeng, he was in so much pain that he broke out in a cold sweat.
Fortunately, the moment he fell into a coma, the soul power that he had actively injected into his nervous system automatically retreated back into the sea of his soul.
Therefore, his body's sensitivity has now returned to normal; otherwise, after being tormented by Li Yifeng, he would probably have fainted again.
Liu Xiaofei, being a woman, was far more perceptive than Li Yifeng. Upon seeing Zhou Ziwei's arms and legs twisted at an unusual angle after Li Yifeng picked him up, she exclaimed in alarm, "You idiot, put him down! His arms and legs are broken; he can't move!"
Upon hearing this, Li Yifeng was immediately startled. He quickly and carefully laid Zhou Ziwei back down on the ground, then scratched his head and said, "What to do... what to do... we have to get him to the hospital right away! Hey... you guys wait here, I'll go block a car!"
Liu Xiaofei rolled her eyes at Li Yifeng again, saying, "Idiot, he has a broken bone! If you put him in the car like this, and he's bumping around all the way to Baoshan or Tengchong... you might as well just take him straight to the crematorium... Didn't you take first aid at the police academy? In his condition, we can only find some planks and strips of cloth to set up and immobilize the fracture... Stop talking nonsense. There were some first aid bandages in the car, but we don't know if we still have them. We'll look for them later. If we don't have them, we'll have to use your shirt instead. As for the planks... let's go up the mountain and find some straighter branches!"
After saying this, Liu Xiaofei, without allowing Li Yifeng to raise any objections, immediately grabbed Li Yifeng by the collar and dragged him up the hillside.
Although the mountain is lush with vegetation, the surrounding area is mostly covered with low shrubs. There are plenty of branches, but they are all soft and limp, making them unusable as plywood.
The two climbed halfway up the mountain with great effort before finally managing to gather a few barely usable branches, and then hurriedly rushed back.
The two initially thought that the area was full of trees and that it wouldn't be difficult to gather a few branches, so they didn't leave one of them to watch over Zhou Ziwei. However, half an hour had passed without them realizing it, and they were getting anxious. They kept blaming each other as they scrambled back home.
But when they returned to the scene of the accident in a disheveled state, they suddenly saw Zhou Ziwei had somehow run to the front of the car, propping up the hood and leaning over, seemingly inspecting the car.
The two of them were stunned by what they saw. They stood there dumbfounded for a long time before suddenly throwing the branches they were holding to the ground and running quickly to Zhou Ziwei's side.
Li Yifeng initially wanted to give Zhou Ziwei a hard slap on the shoulder as usual, but after raising his hand, he hesitated and didn't dare to bring it down. After a long while, he stammered, "Brother... what... what are you doing here?"
Zhou Ziwei didn't turn around. He continued fiddling with the car parts that were emitting black smoke, and casually replied, "Let me see if this car can still be repaired..."
"Uh... I mean... bro, how... how could you be standing here?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Ziwei finally turned around and glanced at Li Yifeng, then said somewhat inexplicably, "If I'm not standing here, where else am I supposed to stand?"
"No, no, no... what I actually meant was..." Li Yifeng stammered for a long time, but even he felt that his words were somewhat incoherent. He couldn't help but slap his own face hard with his raised hand, and then looked innocently at Liu Xiaofei, who was equally dumbfounded, and said, "Well... Officer Liu, you can ask him! I've been defeated by him... Damn, life is truly lonely as snow! I'm lonelier than snow..."
Volume 1, Rebirth of a Prodigy, Chapter 104: Spending the Night in the Desolate Mountains
Liu Xiaofei was quite direct. First, she tentatively touched Zhou Ziwei's wrist, and then she squatted down and reached down to touch Zhou Ziwei's leg...
"Hey... Officer Liu, what are you doing?"
Seeing this, Zhou Ziwei hurriedly jumped aside like a rabbit. When Liu Xiaofei revived him with artificial respiration, although it took him a long time to open his eyes, he was already fully conscious and knew who he had given his first kiss in this life to.
So now, when he sees Liu Xiaofei, he feels a little awkward. And when Liu Xiaofei touches his body with her little hand... his body, which he inherited from the previous owner, immediately reacts a little uncooperatively. And when Liu Xiaofei tries to touch his leg again, how can he not run away?
"Wow... your legs and hands are really all healed!" Liu Xiaofei was still a little doubtful, but when she saw how nimbly Zhou Ziwei ran away, she immediately became sure that Zhou Ziwei had really recovered.
But this made her even more puzzled. They say it takes a hundred days to recover from a broken bone, but that only applies if there are no fractures. Zhou Ziwei had broken countless bones all over his body just now. Given his injuries, it would be a miracle if he could get out of bed after half a year. But how come he was completely fine in the blink of an eye?
No... there must be something wrong here!
"My hands and feet..." Zhou Ziwei naturally couldn't tell her that he possessed miraculous soul power, which, under the stimulation of this strange energy, could increase the cell division rate by hundreds or thousands of times.
It was just a few broken bones. If it were a normal person, the recovery would be much more troublesome than a flesh wound. But for Zhou Ziwei, it was easier to treat than a flesh wound. As long as he stimulated the cells at the broken bone and made them grow wildly for a while, the two ends would stick together, and everything would be OK.
After Zhou Ziwei had fully recovered from his injuries, he had considered whether to pretend for a while. However, he thought that, in normal circumstances, his injuries would definitely not heal in less than seven or eight months. He didn't have the patience to lie in bed for half a year just to avoid arousing suspicion from the two of them, so he simply decided to deny it.
Hearing Liu Xiaofei ask this, he deliberately looked at himself with feigned concern and said, "My hands and legs are fine! What do you mean by that?"
"What do you mean? You're asking me what I mean..."
Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaofei almost collapsed. She angrily pointed to the tree branches that he and Li Yifeng had scattered all over the ground and said, "You clearly had broken your arms and legs just now. Officer Li and I went to great lengths to run up the mountain to find splints for you... and you ask me what I mean by that!"
Zhou Ziwei said apologetically, "I'm so sorry... I really troubled you all. I'll remember your kindness... But... my hands and feet are really fine! Hehe... maybe you were mistaken! I almost thought I had broken my leg just now, but after you left, I tried to get up and walk around a couple of times despite the pain. I saw some medicine that had fallen off the car earlier, it looked like it was for treating joint and bone pain... Oh... it's this 'Wantong Jin Gu Pian' and 'Wantong Jin Gu Spray.' I sprayed the 'Wantong Jin Gu Spray' on my wrists and ankles, and then I took a few 'Wantong Jin Gu Pian'. Hmm... I have to say, this medicine really works. Now I don't feel any pain at all. Look at me now... do I look like someone with a fracture? Hehe... I'm fine now without some medicine."
As Zhou Ziwei spoke, he picked up the two kinds of medicine that he had already opened and showed them to Liu Xiaofei.
"Uh...it doesn't really look like a fracture...but...are these two medications really that effective?"
Those medicines were actually brought by Liu Xiaofei. Her cousin lives in Tengchong and is a very famous jade craftsman. However, he is now old and has developed rheumatoid arthritis, so he is basically semi-retired.
Liu Xiaofei heard that these two medicines were effective in treating rheumatoid arthritis and lower back and leg pain, so she bought some before coming to Tengchong, intending to give them to her uncle when she had some free time.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Ziwei said that he had used these two medicines and his serious injury had actually healed!
Liu Xiaofei couldn't help but have some doubts. After all, she clearly remembered that Zhou Ziwei's left leg had twisted five or six times. If it wasn't broken, it would be a miracle! But... Zhou Ziwei looked perfectly fine now... It was obviously impossible that it had actually been broken... Even if Wantong Muscle and Bone Tablets and Wantong Muscle and Bone Spray were very effective, they couldn't possibly heal a fracture in one use!
While Liu Xiaofei was still confused, unsure whether to trust her eyes or her judgment, Li Yifeng rushed to Zhou Ziwei's side again, punched him hard on the shoulder, and laughed loudly, saying, "Good...good...as long as you're alright, brother...I just want to know how this car, which clearly flew off the cliff, managed to fly back on its own?"
This time, Zhou Ziwei didn't even bother to explain. He just glared at Li Yifeng with disdain and said, "Idiot... You're asking me... Who am I supposed to ask?"
After carefully inspecting the car again, Zhou Ziwei had no choice but to give up.
He had originally planned that if the car wasn't too badly damaged, even if it couldn't be repaired immediately, he could simply create a few independent souls inside the car to replace the damaged parts and deal with the situation for a while.
As for creating a large, independent soul entity inside the car that could control the entire vehicle, Zhou Ziwei doesn't have that idea yet. After all, it took him the energy of nearly thirty remnant souls to create an independent soul entity inside a small mobile phone. This car is not only countless times larger than a mobile phone, but its precision is also not much worse. With the little soul power he currently stores in his sea of souls, it's probably not even enough to fill a tooth gap in this car.
After a preliminary inspection, Zhou Ziwei discovered that there were at least twenty or thirty broken parts on the car, plus the steering wheel that Liu Xiaofei had torn off... The possibility of making it drive again was extremely slim. Even if it were possible, Zhou Ziwei was unwilling to waste a large amount of his soul power on it, so he could only give up decisively.
Zhou Ziwei's phone wasn't lost, but it wasn't a satellite phone, and there was absolutely no signal in this mountainous area.
Left with no other option, the three of them squatted by the roadside and waited for a passing car.
The three of them waited until it was completely dark, but not a single car passed by on the road. Slowly... their faces began to darken...
"I've had my suspicions for a while now, and I'm finally certain... I think... we've probably taken the wrong path!"
After a long silence, Liu Xiaofei finally spoke up.
Her words made the other two men's faces darken even more. Li Yifeng frowned and said, "You mean... you took the wrong road?"
"Yes..." Liu Xiaofei said frankly, "Judging from the condition of this road, it must be an old road that was recently abandoned! Otherwise, it's impossible that not a single car has passed by for so long!"
"You've really taken the wrong path!"
Li Yifeng jumped up, gritting his teeth, and said, "Damn it... Didn't you say you had been to Tengchong three times before? Why did you get lost again!"
Liu Xiaofei snorted and said, "It's true that I've been here three times, but the most recent time was five or six years ago. My uncle and I did take this road back then, but who knew it would be abandoned now!"
"Okay, stop arguing..."
Zhou Ziwei waved his hand and said, "Anyway, it's already like this, there's no use blaming anyone. It's late today, let's just make do in this broken car for the night! When it's light tomorrow, we'll go back along this road, and it'll be easy to get stuck in traffic when we get back to the main road."
Liu Xiaofei and Li Yifeng remained silent for a moment after hearing this, and could only nod helplessly.
The wind was very strong on the mountain at night, and the car was indeed very dilapidated, with only two windows still hanging on, while the rest were letting in the wind.
If you just sit on the car seat, it won't block out the mountain wind at all. Only by curling up under the car seat can you feel a little warmer.
Although Zhou Ziwei's physical condition is not very good now, he was used to being a wandering ghost before his rebirth, so he didn't care much about the cold wind in the mountains. Seeing that there was no room for three people to sleep in the car, he let the two of them sleep in the front and back, while he grabbed a seat cushion and sat down in front of the car.
Liu Xiaofei and Li Yifeng were initially adamant about not agreeing, but they reluctantly agreed after Zhou Ziwei said he would wait a few hours until he got tired and they could change locations.
As night deepened, Zhou Ziwei showed no signs of drowsiness. He leaned against the car, pondering how to perfectly integrate his soul power into his nervous system. Suddenly, he felt an unusually cold wind blow past him, causing him to shiver involuntarily. When he looked up, he was shocked...
