Surviving on the highway, I have a best friend who was reborn.

Chapter 15 Injury and Infection
The monstrous python opened its blood-red maw, right in front of him, and Yuanqiao only had time to let out a short scream.

The body reacted faster than the brain, and the left hand suddenly raised the psionic shield that had been on the arm.

"boom!--"

The python's head slammed heavily against the shield, the impact sending Yuan Qiao flying as his back slammed into the vehicle.

Her vision went black for a moment, and before she could even feel the pain, she saw the snake adjust its position and pounce on her again. The rotting snake body emitted a strong stench, and the ground was covered with its splattered pus.

"Damn it, you're going to hit me again, huh!" Yuanqiao, who was in pain and angry, had forgotten his fear.

Just as the monster python was less than two meters away from her, a dazzling blue-white beam of light extended from the hilt of the sword. Yuan Qiao swung the lightsaber haphazardly with her eyes closed, completely disregarding any technique.

"His-"

A chilling, burning sound accompanied the piercing hiss of the monstrous python.

Yuanqiao opened his eyes and saw a section of the monster python's tail lying on the ground, black smoke billowing from the broken end, and pus flowing out with a foul stench.

The monstrous python writhed in agony, its remaining body twisting wildly as it coiled around Yuanqiao.

Yuanqiao took the opportunity to move to the side, away from the vehicle, his legs trembling as he gripped the hilt of his sword tightly.

She had never received any combat training, and even her physical education class during her school days was barely passable, yet now she had to face such a monster.

"Calm down... I need to calm down. Didn't I take care of that monster bear last time because I was inexperienced? I can do it again!"

The monstrous python stopped writhing and fixed its gaze on her, sending a chill down Yuanqiao's spine.

It charged again, this time faster and at a more cunning angle.

Yuanqiao raised her shield, but at the last moment the python changed direction, its long body lashing out at her side like a whip.

Barely managing to turn around, Yuan Qiao staggered a few steps, the shield only managing to block part of the impact. The monstrous python seized the opportunity to coil around her right leg, the stench of decay assaulting her senses, and a sharp pain shooting through her leg.

"Ah!" Ignoring everything else, Yuan Qiao frantically stabbed the monster python's body with his lightsaber.

The lightsaber left charred marks on its body. The monster python felt pain and tightened its body. Yuan Qiao, who felt that the bone in his right leg was about to break, looked at the head that was close at hand.

Pain made his thinking somewhat sluggish. He gritted his teeth, took out his psionic gun, and fired two shots.

The monstrous python instinctively leaned back to dodge, its coiling force slightly loosening. Yuan Qiao abruptly pulled out his right leg, stumbling and falling in the middle of the road.

The remaining three bullets struck the gaping maw that opened again.

The monstrous python collapsed to the ground, its body twisting and struggling. Yuan Qiao dared not relax his vigilance, holding his shield to defend and parry, and limping as he seized the opportunity to thrust his lightsaber at the vital spot.

The struggle gradually weakened, and unsure if he had hit the vital spot, Yuanqiao stabbed the upper part of the body to pieces.

Finally, after a final spasm, the monstrous python came to a stop.

Yuanqiao slumped to the ground, every muscle in his body trembling.

Smelling the nauseating stench, Yuanqiao glanced at the vehicle and remained silent for a moment.

He tried to laugh, but it turned into a violent cough.

I'm having a little difficulty breathing.

"Nanxi, it hurts so much..."

I miss you a little, I miss Mom and Dad, I miss my bald boss at work, and my leave request from that day still hasn't been approved...

[Disassembly successful, kill reward: 8 gold coins]

Open the online store and search for medicine.

[External Wound Spray 10ml x 1 Price: 10 Gold Coins]

[Internal Injury Repair Pill x1 Price: 10 Gold Coins]

Yuanqiao clicked to buy, even though she was wearing a thermal suit, her exposed, unprotected ears were still frostbitten.

Unable to move or return to the car, Tuanzai huddled beside Yuanqiao, keeping its owner company in the cold wind. After taking an internal injury repair pill and resting for half an hour, the medicine took effect, and Yuanqiao slowly got up, took off its tattered coat and trousers, and threw them into the trash can hanging by the car door.

Since someone put biodegradable trash cans on the market, I've replaced three of them: one for the driver's seat, one for the side of the truck door, and one for emergency use in the cargo area.

It hurts so much, crying won't help, I'll try my best to take care of myself.

Yuanqiao took a quick cold shower in the bathroom, cleaned the wound, and then used an external wound spray to gradually heal it.

It's expensive, but it's worth the price.

However, no matter how much repair spray I apply to my right leg, it doesn't work; the wound is starting to fester.

After staring at it for a while, Yuanqiao finally opened the system panel.

[Player Yuanqiao, pollution level 11%]

Please use the purification agent to remove the contamination as soon as possible!

"What a loss!"

Despite complaining, his hands betrayed him as he found the purifier, paid for it, and bought it for 2 gold coins each.

Yuanqiao was furious when he saw that the pollution level had only dropped to 10% after using the air purifier!
This time, she not only complained but also bought 10 more bottles of purifying agent while grumbling. Finally, the wound was cleaned and the repair spray was applied.

After changing into clean cotton clothes, I sat by the stove to warm myself. My thermal suit had a tear and needed a repair tool.

Since today's tasks are complete, I don't want to collect any more treasure chests this afternoon. I'll put the silver treasure chest with the python wrapped around it into my spatial storage.

Staring blankly at the firelight in the stove, Yuanqiao knew that something was wrong with him, but he didn't want to force himself to adjust his mindset, so he simply gave up and rested for half a day.

After a while, three messages were sent out from the lobby.

[Does anyone have repair tools? DM me if interested]

[Does anyone have repair tools? DM me if interested]

[Does anyone have repair tools? DM me if interested]

Liu Wei, who was in the water hall, saw the message; it was from that beautiful woman who was generous with the food.

Immediately afterwards, a private message was sent.

[Liu Wei: Beautiful lady, I have 3 vehicle repair cards and 1 item recovery card.]

Yuanqiao, upon receiving the private message, didn't hesitate and directly asked how many supplies he needed.

[Yuanqiao: I'll take them all. You calculate how many supplies you need.]

[Liu Wei: Do you want both? Then, beautiful lady, could you please replace the car air conditioner with a car air conditioner, and you can also add some food, preferably fruit?]

Liu Wei easily obtained these kinds of item cards and was overjoyed to be able to exchange them all.

[Yuanqiao: Okay, here's 1 car air conditioner, 2 snack gift packs, and 1 carton of milk.]

I used the item card to restore the thermostatic suit as soon as I got it. The impact of the collision with the vehicle today was quite strong, leaving some marks on the rear of the car, and Yuanqiao generously used a vehicle repair card.

Keep the remaining two safe for future use in case of emergencies.

With time to arrange the carriage rooms in detail, Yuanqiao poured out the remaining water from the condensers and gave Tuanzai a bath as well.

I searched the entire space but couldn't find any toiletries. The only thing I had was hand soap from the wooden treasure chest I recently found, which I'll have to make do with as shower gel.

A person and their pet warmed themselves by the fire, creating a heartwarming scene.

Yuanqiao spent 5 gold coins to buy Tuanzai a fruit called Qifeng Fruit, which was quite large, about the size of a coconut. Watching Tuanzai holding the Qifeng Fruit in its two front paws, squatting and warming itself by the fire, Yuanqiao burst out laughing.

They sat in a row, took out their Bobo fruit, and ate while watching the gossip in the hall.

Hey, it looks like this online couple is arguing.
