Chapter 274 - Chapter 274: Chapter 274: Under the Camphor Tree (2/2)
Chen Yu didn’t care much about that and simply quickened his pace to the end of the corridor.
There was a particularly sturdy room here, and upon arriving, Zhou Shengtao’s body couldn’t help but tremble.
Although it wasn’t his first time here, the horrific scenes inside the room always left him with lingering fears.
As he was trembling, preparing to open the door, a sudden thunderous noise came from inside—it sounded like someone was smashing the door, and the solid steel door already showed a multitude of fist marks.
Chen Yu’s eyes widened in disbelief—the door was made from steel plates thirty centimeters thick, and an ordinary person couldn’t possibly deform it.
But judging by the frequency and force of the blows from inside, it wouldn’t be long before the iron door was shattered.
Chen Yu couldn’t care less and immediately grabbed the doorknob, yanking it harshly backward.
The solid door was torn out directly, and at the same time, a huge fist burst forth from the darkness.
Zhou Shengtao was startled. He knew the formidable power of the elder’s punch; if it landed on Chen Yu, even if he didn’t die, his chest would turn into mush.
Almost instinctively, he wanted to shield Chen Yu, but the punch was too fast and had already landed on Chen Yu’s chest.
However, Chen Yu had no intention of dodging and simply threw Zhou Shengtao out of the way, then bravely took the punch with his own chest.
A dull thud resounded as if the punch had hit a wall of dirt.
The next moment, Chen Yu surged forward and threw a punch of his own.
Another heavy collision sounded, and after what felt like an eternity, the noise from within finally ceased. Taking his chances, Zhou Shengtao crept in with his flashlight.
An old man with white hair and a robust body sat in a chair, with Chen Yu standing beside him.
It was as if nothing had happened just moments before, with Chen Yu still gently massaging the old man at the shoulder blades.
“You’re quite something, kid. In the midst of our fight, you managed to insert silver needles into me, not only restoring my consciousness but also giving me a feeling of clarity and refreshment!”
Chen Yu smiled faintly, knowing the dangers he had just faced alone. During the fight with the old man, he had done his utmost to realign the dislocated bones to unblock his nerves.
He also had to seize the opportunity to insert the silver needles into the old man’s acupoints to help restore his consciousness in sync.
If anything had gone even slightly awry, Chen Yu could have lost his life.
Fortunately, everything had been accomplished in an orderly fashion.
Zhou Shengtao, too, let out a long sigh of relief and ran over excitedly.
“Master, you’ve finally come to!”
The old man was taken aback when he saw Zhou Shengtao and tenderly stretched out his hand to caress his cheek.
“Little Taotao, I never thought I’d get to see you again in my lifetime! You’ve suffered a lot these years.”
