Chapter 488: Hell Is Too Scary, I Think I Will Pass for Now
The three doctors immediately came forward to check on the old man’s breath and heartbeat.
In the end, the doctors put down all kinds of equipment and said, “Elder Ye has passed away. Right now, it’s 10:11 AM.”
They began to record down notes and put together the results and the report.
The other four elders sighed heavily on the side, and they solemnly performed the military salute toward the old man.
Minister Ye’s wife brought over a set of military uniforms that Elder Ye wore when he was appointed the commander back in the days to change it onto him.
Xu Cheng sat there blankly, hesitating to leave.
Ye Xiu dragged him and said, “Let’s go, leave this to my mom. She’s going to change Grandpa’s clothes now.”
Elder Ye’s death greatly weakened the Ye Family, but there was no other way, and every family would face this kind of problem. In the future, the focus of the Ye Family could only be placed on Minister Ye.
Xu Cheng suddenly turned around, and when everyone was not paying attention, he still put the needle back onto the old man’s body and injected it into Elder Ye’s wrist.
Seeing this action, the four elders felt that this was disrespectful to the deceased and all began to scold Xu Cheng. “What are you doing, Xu Cheng!”
“He’s my elder, an elder that’s related by blood, so I obviously won’t harm him. It’s hard to come across someone that appreciates me, I don’t want him to die this early.”
As he finished talking, the serum was completely injected into the body.
The three doctors all looked at Minister Ye and the others and said, “Commanders… he…”
The four old men waved their hands. “You guys go out first, just write whatever you were going to write on the report, and we will handle the rest.”
The death report of a character like Elder Ye had to be extremely detailed. For instance, they even had to record down the time every time Elder Ye took his medicine or received any injection, as one mistake was enough to offend the high officials. So, these doctors were also in a difficult spot.
The three doctors gave Xu Cheng an ugly glance and left.
When there was only the Minister Ye couple, Ye Xiu, Xu Cheng, and the four elders left in the room, the four elders immediately glared at Xu Cheng. “Are you done causing trouble? If you are gonna go crazy, just do it outside of this country! When you are back, you should behave yourself!”
Xu Cheng ignored the four elders as he opened his penetrating vision and watched to see if the serum was traveling through the old man’s internal organs.
The serum already began to travel through the bloodstream.
Xu Cheng didn’t turn to look at them and just replied, “If something goes wrong, I’m willing to take responsibility! Even if I will be cursed by the entire nation! I know that if this gets out, I would be a sinner scolded by everyone, I will just take it!”
“Can you shoulder it?” Elder Zhou was trying hard to suppress his fury as he slammed the table and sighed, “This puts you in a position no different than a national sinner, you know that? I can’t tolerate you doing this to Big Brother Ye’s body, even if he agreed for you to do this!”
Xu Cheng directly said, “Just give me 20 minutes, okay? After 20 minutes, you guys can make me do whatever, and I won’t refute it.”
He then turned around to look at Ye Xiu’s family and said sincerely, “Please give me one chance, give the old man a chance. Auntie Ye, later on you can slap me or scold me, I will take it all, but right now it’s the best time to treat the old man.”
What else could Ye Xiu say? In fact, he really wanted to go up and punch Xu Cheng. No one would want to see their seniors die and then have the corpse be mistreated.
But there’s also a part of him that really hoped that Xu Cheng could save Elder Ye, even though it was just him trying to be a little optimistic no matter how unrealistic it seemed. Sometimes, that was just how humans were. In despair, when there was only a 1% chance of success, they would still want to give it a shot.
“If you can’t save him, I will hate you!” Ye Xiu said to Xu Cheng with bloodshot eyes.
Xu Cheng turned around and continued to monitor the condition inside the old man.
With the cells being resuscitated, the failing heart suddenly beat once, and Xu Cheng also became a bit excited.
Then, the heart began to respond slightly.
But Grandpa Ye still didn’t wake up, and now with the electrocardiogram pulled, other people simply couldn’t see Elder Ye’s situation.
“Old man, hang on! Didn’t you say you want to see me accomplish something on the world stage? Why are you still waiting for me to burn an autobiography for you to see in the afterworld? Just open your eyes and write one for me as you witness everything. Don’t leave any regrets,” Xu Cheng cheered the old man on.
The serum was starting to work, and it gradually revived and strengthened the cells in Elder Ye’s body.
Xu Cheng noticed that the heart wasn’t beating strong enough to stimulate blood circulation, and Elder Ye was still in a weak state.
Xu Cheng gritted his teeth and took out another syringe, and within it contained the turtle genes which could extend one’s life cycle.
He directly inserted it into the old man’s heart.
Ye Xiu quickly pushed Xu Cheng away like he had gone mad and shouted, “Are you facking crazy?! I’m going to kill you!”
Xu Cheng took a kick from him, but he didn’t fight back. As he flew onto the wall, he just sat down and said, “If you want to beat me up, I will let you do it in a bit, okay?”
Ye Xiu directly took the syringe out of Elder Ye’s heart and pointed at Xu Cheng and scolded, “This is what you called saving Grandpa Ye? Get the fack out of here!”
Xu Cheng looked at the genes that had been injected into the old man’s body and had begun spreading and replacing the original genes that were dying. It was as if he was reborn.
He just sat there and monitored the old man’s condition. After waiting for thirty minutes, when he was certain that the old man’s heart began to beat steadily, he knew he succeeded!
Ye Xiu and the others were organizing the old man’s attire and putting on makeup to touch up his final appearance before other people came in to greet and pay respect to him.
“Are you still not going to get the fack out?” Ye Xiu glared at Xu Cheng, “I was wrong about you!”
Xu Cheng stood up, he didn’t go towards the door but went into another direction.
Within just a minute, the seven people in the room noticed that he was carrying a basin of water like a lunatic. It wasn’t just any basin, but Elder Ye’s foot-wash basin that was filled with water that they had already washed his feet with! It was hella cold, since it was in winter and the water had been sitting out for a long time!
Then, catching Ye Xiu and Minister Ye off guard, Xu Cheng directly poured it onto the old man.
Everyone was shocked.
They had heard about corpse abuse, but it was still their first time seeing someone abusing a dead guy to this degree!
First, it was the injection, then it was a stab to the heart, and then it was ice cold foot-wash water!
The three members of the Ye Family were first dumbfounded and then they were so mad that they were about to jump onto Xu Cheng.
Xu Cheng immediately reached out his hands and interrupted them. “One minute! Just give me one minute!”
Minister Ye: “If I give you one more minute, are you going to set the old man on fire too?”
Just then, Old Man Ye suddenly sat up from the bed as if he just woke up from a nightmare. He was breathing heavily as if he lacked a lot of oxygen.
Everyone was shocked.
Everyone all turned their heads mechanically over to the bed, and they just saw the old man gasping for air as he cursed, “Cold, so facking cold! Yuck! What the fack is this sh-t? This water stinks!”
Xu Cheng said to the old man, “I couldn’t find a lot of water in the room, so I just used the basin of water you used to wash your feet last night. Just bear with it.”
The old man glared at him. “I’m a well-respected commander of this nation, and you are making me drink my foot-washing water?”
Xu Cheng pointed at the scratch marks on his face and said, “I’m putting my life on the line to save you already. How are you doing? A day-trip to hell, how’s the scenery there?”
The old man suddenly began laughing his heart out. “Hell is too scary, I think I won’t die for now.”
