Godslayer: God of the Sequence, Starting Guide to Conquering Lin Qiye
Chapter 17 Visiting Zhao Kongcheng
Inside a private ward at the hospital, Zhao Kongcheng, wrapped up like a rice dumpling, was chatting and laughing with members of Team 136.
When Wu Xiangnan brought Yang Gao in, everyone stared at them for a second before continuing their conversation.
Yang Gao watched as Zhao Kongcheng, whose eyes and mouth were the only parts visible, kept talking, and a smile crept onto his face.
—It's good that Zhao Kongcheng didn't die.
Lin Qiye sat on the sofa in the far corner, not saying much. He watched Zhao Kongcheng chatter away as if nothing was wrong, and thought that this guy was really thick-skinned.
But he could also clearly sense that Zhao Kongcheng didn't want the people in Squad 136 to worry about him, which was why he was acting so nonchalantly, as if it was fine as long as he wasn't dead.
When he saw Yang Gao arrive, he greeted him with a smile. The two exchanged a glance, and he watched as Yang Gao walked through everyone to him and greeted him.
—They all arrived earlier than us.
"Seven Nights, did you sleep well last night?" Yang Gao asked.
Lin Qiye thought about how he had written the letter late last night... and it actually felt quite good.
He nodded immediately, "Sister Hongying gave me a private bedroom, it's very comfortable, I slept very well!"
Hongying turned around and looked back. Yang Gao smiled and said, "Thank you, Sister Hongying."
Yang Gao's words were a double entendre, referring both to Xie Hongying for the breakfast she gave him and to thanking Lin Qiye on her behalf.
Zhao Kongcheng's body is not in any major condition, except for a comminuted fracture and some lingering injuries, so he needs to rest for a while.
Chen Muye had already arranged for him to join the Night Watch's special medical team in Beijing for recuperation.
Zhao Kongcheng initially wanted to refuse, saying with some disdain, "Nothing in the capital is as comfortable as Cangnan."
Chen Muyi knew that Zhao Kongcheng was a little embarrassed. As an old-school night watchman, Zhao Kongcheng naturally knew that the treatment resources of the special medical team in the capital were extremely precious.
Why waste such a resource on a Night's Watchman like him who doesn't have a Forbidden Ruins?
Chen Muyi held Zhao Kongcheng down and said in an unquestionable tone, "Old Zhao, I understand what you're thinking."
"However, the hidden injuries on your body and the injuries you sustained last night..."
The medical facilities in Cangnan alone are completely incapable of curing you.
Are you planning to be discharged from the military?!
Chen Muyi uttered the last three words with utmost precision, staring intently at Zhao Kongcheng as if he would kill him if he heard an unsatisfactory answer!
Zhao Kongcheng blinked. He thought it would be better to die than to retire.
But he still stubbornly insisted, "Wouldn't it be a complete waste for me to go to the capital for treatment?"
Zhao Kongcheng lowered his gaze, and the atmosphere in the ward instantly became serious.
"You killed Zhao Kongcheng, the mysterious Night Watchman of Sichuan, with your mortal body!"
You are Zhao Kongcheng, the Night Watchman who saved two agents of the gods!
"You are..." Yang Gao's voice grew louder as he stared at Zhao Kongcheng and looked around at everyone in the ward.
He said, "...Members of the Night Watch's 136th Squad stationed in Cangnan!"
"Night Watchman, Zhao Kongcheng!!!"
Yang Gao paused for a moment, and Zhao Kongcheng was completely stunned after listening to him finish speaking.
This kid... really suits my temperament.
He remembered what Si Xiaonan had told him when she visited him that morning about Yang Gao's sleep-talking from the previous day:
Wishing General Zhao Kongcheng a triumphant return.
“If you’re not even qualified to go to Beijing for professional treatment, then I, Yang Gao, will be the first to disagree!” Yang Gao looked at Lin Qiye, and he could sense that Lin Qiye agreed with him at this moment.
"Seven Nights, you're right, aren't you?!" Yang Gao called on him.
Lin Qiye stood up; what Yang Gao said was exactly what he wanted to say.
Heroes like Zhao Kongcheng, who, despite being ordinary people, upheld their oaths and protected millions...
How could it not be worth treating?
If he is not worthy, then Lin Qiye feels that the Night Watch is being treated unfairly.
Lin Qiye uttered the words Yang Gao had said to him during their battle with the Ghost-Faced King: "Those who carry firewood for the masses..."
"...They must not be allowed to freeze to death in the wind and snow." This time, it was Yang Gao's turn to say the second half of the sentence.
The atmosphere in the ward reached its peak, and Zhao Kongcheng's eyes welled up with tears.
Zhao Kongcheng was content to be recognized by the people of Squad 136!
"Okay. I will accept the treatment properly," Zhao Kongcheng agreed.
Chen Muyi then took Wu Xiangnan out to try and find a way to transfer the situation, and the rest of the 136th squad also left one after another.
In the end, only Lin Qiye, Yang Gao, and Zhao Kongcheng, who was staring blankly and grinning, remained in the ward.
After a moment of silence, Yang Gao and Lin Qiye sat down next to Zhao Kongcheng.
Yang Gao gave up the closest position to Lin Qiye, knowing how important Zhao Kongcheng was to Lin Qiye.
To put it more elegantly, Zhao Kongcheng was the "too amazing" person Lin Qiye met during high school.
They are not only guides, but also spiritual mentors.
"You little rascal, I still managed to lure you into joining the Night's Watch." Zhao Kongcheng laughed.
"Ten years? I'll only wait ten years," Lin Qiye retorted, "I'm doing this to repay a debt of gratitude."
"Hmph, stubborn as a mule." Zhao Kongcheng sneered. Lin Qiye understood him all too well; he was clearly full of passion...
She's incredibly sensible, yet she tightly locks away her emotions.
He doesn't look like a high school student at all.
"Believe it or not," Lin Qiye said, then smiled.
Like Yang Gao, he felt: It's good that Zhao Kongcheng is still alive!
"Stubborn." Zhao Kongcheng turned his head to look at Yang Gao. "You stayed behind because you have something to tell me, right?"
At this moment, Yang Gao took out the medal that belonged to Zhao Kongcheng from his pocket.
He handed it to Zhao Kongcheng, his eyes shining as he looked at Zhao Kongcheng, then stared at Yang Gao, as if he had seen through his actions.
Yang Gao said, "It was found at the scene and has now been returned to its rightful owner."
"Really?" Zhao Kongcheng asked suspiciously. He had a feeling that Yang Gao had stolen it from him, but he had no proof.
"Why would I lie to you?" Yang Gao shrugged. Anyway, he refused to admit it, and Zhao Kongcheng couldn't do anything about it.
"He's such a grown man, and he still manages to lose things," Yang Gao retorted to Zhao Kongcheng.
"I seriously suspect that you've been losing your keys since you were a child."
"You brat..." Zhao Kongcheng feigned anger, "Don't spread slander here!"
"See how I am? I won't teach you a lesson!!!"
"Haha..." Lin Qiye laughed out loud, and Zhao Kongcheng's "AOE" instantly affected him. "What are you laughing at, kid!"
"Once I recover, you won't be able to escape either!"
"Alright, alright, then Qi Ye and I will wait for you to come back from the capital." Yang Gao put one hand on Lin Qi Ye's shoulder and opened his other hand to place Zhao Kong Cheng's medal in his palm.
The sunlight streaming through the window shone on the medal, making the ward sparkle.
Yang Gao silently wished General Zhao Kongcheng a triumphant return!
Lin Qiye took the medal from Yang Gao, turned it over and looked at the oath on the back, seemingly gaining a completely new understanding of the words.
"By the way, Qi Ye, have the captain and vice-captain arranged any training for you?" Yang Gao asked, frowning.
His reason for asking this question was actually quite simple: he wanted to spar with Lin Qiye.
If Lin Qiye goes all out, the restoration of the 'Lost City' will see a significant increase as he absorbs the fluctuations of Lin Qiye's Divine Ruins.
This was, in Yang Gao's opinion, the most reliable way to improve before the Nanda snake demon incident.
Of course, Yang Gao had other plans, and the members of Squad 136 were all considered his "experience packs".
— Hong Ying, Wen Qimo… forget about Si Xiaonan, she’s just a support staff member.
—And there are also team captain Chen Muyi and Wu Xiangnan!
Before long, he had a complete plan.
—I'm truly a "drama god"~
“Yes, he told me to ask you directly so we can train at different times,” Lin Qiye said, revealing Chen Muye’s arrangement.
“Scheduled training…” Yang Gao paused, “That means, I’ll practice with the captain in the morning, and you go to see Brother Qi Mo; in the afternoon, you’ll practice with the captain, and I’ll go to see Brother Qi Mo.”
"And what about tonight?" Lin Qiye asked.
"Find Leng Xuan and learn about firearms." This is what Zhao Kongcheng said.
These training exercises were all pretty much the same, and Zhao Kongcheng, having been in the 136th Squad for so long, had long since memorized them perfectly.
"Then we'll be going..." Yang Gao and Lin Qiye prepared to leave.
On the rooftop of a building not far away, Leng Xuan lay there admiring the photos he had taken.
"I'm quite satisfied." Leng Xuan looked at the photo, which showed the members of Squad 136 gathered in the ward, with the frozen moment being when Yang Gao and Lin Qiye were talking.
He put the photos into the metal box and muttered, "These two young men are quite photogenic..."
