Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 237: Chapter 237 Original Sin 46

Wan Yan’s wound appeared to be split open on both sides. Yun Shuangshuang aligned the open wound, and the ants, having been forcefully bathed by Yun Shuangshuang before, were filled with rage. As soon as they touched the flesh, they bit down hard!

Yun Shuangshuang’s eyes lit up. The mandibles of this large ant were indeed powerful, managing to clamp the separated wound shut at once! Yun Shuangshuang immediately pinched off the ant’s body, leaving only the head on the wound.

Without its body, the ant’s head remained firmly clamped on the wound, not releasing its grip. Yun Shuangshuang let out a sigh of relief, this method was feasible! Following this, Yun Shuangshuang continued to catch ants and sew Wan Yan’s wound bit by bit in the same manner.

Lying on Yun Shuangshuang’s legs, Wan Yan’s entire body was rigid, desperately holding back the pain on his back that made him want to scream! His face was pale from the pain, yet gradually a sense of hope began to grow in his heart!

In fact, Wan Yan didn’t really have a big heart, not realizing how dangerous his situation was. He could not ignore the symptoms caused by excessive blood loss, and he even had a feeling that he might die here.

Wan Yan just did not dare to think about it too deeply, so he frantically thought about all sorts of random things to avoid focusing on that chilling speculation.

But at this moment, despite the excruciating pain on his back, Wan Yan could feel that as each stab of pain came, the wound that he had always felt was open was closing.

It was a strange and wondrous sensation. He could feel his flesh being parted, hot blood continuously flowing from his split flesh, as though his life was slowly fading away; it was despairing and terrifying. But now, he could feel his flesh being sewn back together bit by bit! Though the pain was unbearable, it brought him a sense of hope!

Yun Shuangshuang ended up using over twenty ants to completely suture the wound on Wan Yan’s back. Watching the wound stop bleeding as it closed, Yun Shuangshuang let out a sigh of relief; Wan Yan’s life was saved!

When Yun Shuangshuang finished, Wan Yan, lying on her legs, was drenched in cold sweat from the pain, yet he couldn’t help but smile, filled with gratitude. His life was once again filled with the hope of survival! He could feel it — the wound on his back had closed and was no longer bleeding!

Although the wound had been sutured, such a freshly sewn wound couldn’t be left exposed, as it might easily get dirty. Dying from an infection instead of bleeding out would be a huge loss.

However, Wan Yan’s clothes had been torn by Yun Shuangshuang during the wound treatment. She hadn’t anticipated this situation and hadn’t brought extra clothing. In the end, with no other choice, Yun Shuangshuang took off her sports jacket.

The sportswear Yun Shuangshuang wore wasn’t thick. It wasn’t cold enough to wear short sleeves in this weather. Yun Shuangshuang wore it to avoid mosquito bites. Now she had taken off her jacket, wearing only a sleeveless shirt, but she didn’t feel cold.

There’s no way Wan Yan could wear Yun Shuangshuang’s clothes, and she didn’t intend for him to. She carefully draped her outerwear over Wan Yan’s back to cover the wound, preventing dirt from getting on it, and then tied the sleeves in a knot in front of Wan Yan.

Having dealt with Wan Yan’s wound, Yun Shuangshuang took a deep breath, savoring the information in the air — the scent of earthy soil and vegetation, the moisture from creek springs, the various animal and bird aromas — but found no scent of humans!

Yun Shuangshuang’s sense of smell could detect scents from afar, especially when she concentrated on analyzing them, extending her range. Now, Yun Shuangshuang couldn’t detect any human scent, meaning the search party of armed police and villagers were still far from here.

They couldn’t wait. Although Wan Yan’s wound was closed now, ant mandibles were inherently unclean. If too much time passed, it would certainly become infected. With such a large wound, if not treated quickly, an infection could cause a fever, which could be deadly!

She looked up at the canyon. It wasn’t too steep, with many protruding rocks. Wan Yan was injured because he scraped his back against the protruding rocks when he fell.

However, these rocks could now be used as leverage for Yun Shuangshuang. She estimated, given her strength, she could carry Wan Yan up without issue.

Thankfully, she had brought enough rope to tie Wan Yan onto her back. Yun Shuangshuang turned back to Wan Yan and said, ”You ran too deep; the search party won’t get here anytime soon, but your wound can’t wait. We must go out immediately. I’ll tie you to my back and climb up. Don’t worry, don’t panic, just relax and trust me completely.”

Wan Yan’s face turned paler, terrified! Although Yun Shuangshuang’s frame couldn’t be described as slender and graceful, she certainly didn’t look strong enough to haul him up without them both falling to their deaths.

But Wan Yan had no other choice. He understood the situation more than anyone. Dizzy, weak all over — these were symptoms of excessive blood loss. What frightened him most was a feeling of fever. The pain in his wound was diminishing, which wasn’t good, but a precursor to inflammation!

Wan Yan’s only path to survival now lay with this not-so-tall, even not yet adult girl. He could only trust and be grateful that Yun Shuangshuang came to find him and didn’t choose to abandon him to save herself.

Seeing Wan Yan agree, Yun Shuangshuang crouched down, carefully carrying Wan Yan on her back. She tied his waist and legs to her with rope. Yun Shuangshuang dared not tie Wan Yan’s upper body for fear of touching his wound, forcing Wan Yan to wrap his arms around her neck to stabilize himself.

With Wan Yan on her back, Yun Shuangshuang pulled on the rope to ensure it was secure, then began climbing, gripping the rope tightly. Her feet left the ground, stepping cautiously onto the cliff face. Wan Yan’s heart leaped into his throat, feeling a sense of suffocation!

Wan Yan was extremely worried; climbing depended on arm strength, and he was concerned Yun Shuangshuang’s arms couldn’t bear the weight of two people.

Yun Shuangshuang’s analysis wasn’t wrong. Wan Yan had trained in wrestling and Sanda, so his body, though lean, was all muscle, weighing no less than a large person!

Yun Shuangshuang’s grip on the rope was strong, holding firmly each time. She climbed steadily upwards, occasionally stepping on protruding rocks for leverage. Her ascent was swift, showing no signs of struggle, not even breathing heavily.

Wan Yan gradually relaxed. This slender girl unexpectedly instilled a sense of security, making Wan Yan feel inexplicably that he could entrust his life to her. What a strange feeling!
