Chapter 751: Xiao Dong is buried alive!
Under the hospital building debris.
It is very dark.
Dust and hard concrete slabs are everywhere.
Dong Xuebing’s finger on his right hand moved slightly, slowly opening his eyes. He can’t remember how long he was out, and he can’t see anything in the darkness. He thought he had died again, and he couldn’t use his powers as he had used all his remaining time to save Zhan Rourou. He closes his eyes and waits. Suddenly, he felt something was off. He can feel pain from his wounds. His whole body hurts, and the dust he inhaled made him cough. The coughing sounds echoed in his ears, and he felt he was in a semi-closed area.
I am alive!
I am not dead!
Dong Xuebing took a deep breath and tried to move his body despite the pain. He tried to move his neck and felt a large concrete slab pressing on his shoulders. He can’t turn his head. At this moment, he realized he was trapped. He is trapped under the debris. Fallen concrete slabs, broken tables, and chairs are around him. He is fortunate that these things did not hit his vital points and only buried him inside. The crushed concrete slabs formed a small space, saving his life.
But Dong Xuebing did not feel blessed. He knows this is only temporary, and it’s hard for him to survive.
The air in this small space might not be enough.
What about food and water?
What about my injuries?
How am I going to call for help?
These are the problems faced by Dong Xuebing now.
Dong Xuebing is prepared to die when he throws Zhan Rourou out with all his strength. He was not scared as he had ‘died’ several times and could face death better than anyone else.
I still have not gotten married to Xie Huilan….
I still have not to carry my daughter….
I still have not seen Mum getting married again….
I still have not been promoted to Division Chief….
Dong Xuebing has too many regrets, and he asked himself if it was worth it. But he doesn’t have an answer. He only knows he has done his best.
Just die…. What’s there to regret?
Dong Xuebing knows he cannot survive and stop worrying. Xie Huilan will take care of his Mum, and Aunt Xuan can care for their daughter. He doesn’t need to worry.
Let’s leave it to fate….
Dong Xuebing closed his eyes and fainted from his pain again.
Five hours….
Ten hours….
When Dong Xuebing opens his eyes again, he finds it hard to move. He had lost too much blood, and many of his wounds were infected. He knows he cannot last any longer and might die anytime. He imagined him carrying his daughter and having dinner at Qu Yunxuan’s house. The next moment, he is at his wedding with Xie Huilan. After that, he saw himself watching TV with Geng Yuehua and traveling with Yu Meixia.
A sharp pain woke Dong Xuebing from his dream. He looked around and saw himself still trapped under the debris. He might never see Xie Huilan and the rest again.
Dong Xuebing’s eyes turned sharp.
No! I cannot die like this!
Dong Xuebing had given up hope but suddenly changed. A strong desire to live arose in his mind. He needs to stay alive for his Mum, daughter, wife, and lover. What are they going to do if he dies? He must survive! Many people are waiting for him!
MENU!
Dong Xuebing shouted, and a menu with a clock appeared.
The remaining time had become zero, and there were two more hours to midnight.
MENU will show the time, and Dong Xuebing will get 1 minute every day at midnight. He has an extra minute than everyone else. If he can hold on until midnight, he will survive.
Hurry!
Dong Xuebing gritted his teeth and forced himself not to faint again. He knows if he faints again, he will never wake up.
Dong Xuebing! You got to hold on!
Dong Xuebing dug his fingernails into his fist to stimulate himself. He forced himself to stay awake and waited for midnight.
This feeling is terrible, and it feels worse than dying.
Dong Xuebing’s strong desire to live made him last until midnight.
Midnight.
Dong Xuebing called out his menu and saw sixty seconds in the remaining time slot. He did not waste time and used REVERSE on his body.
One second….
Two seconds….
REVERSE deactivated.
Dong Xuebing felt his body become lighter, and all his wounds healed. His body condition returned a few days ago, and he couldn’t feel any pain.
Yes! I manage to survive it!
Dong Xuebing is relieved and sees a glimpse of hope.
With his recovered strength, Dong Xuebing started to shout for help.
“Is there anyone out there?!”
“Hello! Can you all hear me?!”
“I am here! Can anyone hear me?!”
The only reply is Dong Xuebing’s echo. He is trapped in an enclosed area, and no one can hear him. At the same time, he can’t hear anything outside.
If nobody can hear him, it will be hard for the rescuers to find him.
Everyone must have thought he had died.
That’s right. I was seriously injured when I go into the hospital. I might not survive without treatment, let alone being buried under the debris. Anyone else would be dead. The debris of the hospital had piled up very high, and the roads outside were congested. No one knows how long it will take for the rescue vehicles to enter, and they need time to dig through the debris. Dong Xuebing can only pray that they don’t give up digging for a corpse and focus on saving others.
Dong Xuebing smiled wearily and felt this might be possible.
Is this the end of me?
Suddenly, Dong Xuebing’s face changed. “Huff… huff… huff….”
Dong Xuebing suddenly felt giddy, and his breathing becomes faster. He knows what is happening. The hospital debris should be at least three stories high. Although there are gaps between the concrete slabs, outside air cannot go in. The oxygen level in the enclosed space will lower and is not enough for him. He can survive without food and water, but he can only last less than five minutes without air.
Damn!
I am running out of air.
Dong Xuebing feels terrible and knows he has only a few minutes left.
Dong Xuebing’s misfortunes are never-ending.
Does heaven want me so much?
Dong Xuebing had again fallen into a bad situation, and he was at his wits’ end. He can use REVERSE to settle food and water, but he cannot do anything to air. He doesn’t want to die from suffocation. It felt worse than being crushed to death. His breathing became rapid, and he got frustrated. He can feel his life seeping away every second.
What should I do?
What should I do?
Dong Xuebing quickly reach out and felt the crevices around him.
Sand…. Chipped concrete…. Broke chair parts…. A crushed radio….
Dong Xuebing felt these things, and he threw them away. These are not the things he needs.
There’s no more oxygen, and Dong Xuebing held his last breath. He pushed himself slightly and tried his best to reach further.
Suddenly, there was a loud ‘clank’!
Dong Xuebing touched a cylinder object around the length of his arm. He can feel the valve on it.
It is an oxygen tank!
This is what Dong Xuebing is looking for. Many patients are sleeping in the lobby, and some are using oxygen tanks to help them breathe. He feels the ground around him, hoping to find one. After all, several dozen patients were sleeping here a while ago.
Dong Xuebing had found one!
The god had not forgotten me!
Dong Xuebing quickly opens the valve and breath in deeply. The next moment, his face turns green.
The oxygen tank is empty!
This is an empty tank!
Dong Xuebing cursed under his breath as he held his breath and forced himself to stay awake. Suddenly, he got an idea. He pressed his hand on the tank and said the command.
REVERSE one second!
