“Fucking hell!”

Su Tianbei cried out in alarm, immediately lifting Bai Hongtao's head. “Xiao Tao, Xiao Tao, what's wrong?!”

“I... I can’t feel my back anymore. It's swollen and numb.” Blood streamed from Bai Hongtao’s mouth and nose, his words slurred as he reached behind him with his right hand, trying to touch his back.

“What’s wrong? Xiao Tao!” Bai Hongbo also reacted, getting up from the back seat and leaning forward.

Su Tianbei laid Bai Hongtao flat, letting him rest on his lap. Then, he turned on the car's interior light and glanced down.

Bai Hongtao's entire back was soaked in blood. There were several obvious bullet holes in the jacket he was wearing.

Seeing this, Su Tianbei turned pale and shouted, “Stop the car, Lao Kong, stop the car! Get Liu Zi over here, Xiao Tao’s been shot!”

Hearing this, Kong Zheng Hui slammed on the brakes and called Su Tianyu on the phone.

Outside Karl Life Village, two cars stopped one after the other. Su Tianyu and Lao Hei quickly walked over.

Inside the car, Bai Hongbo frantically pressed his hands against the wounds on his brother's body, shouting in a trembling voice, "Quick... someone, come quick!"

The car door was yanked open, and Su Tianyu stood outside the car, shouting, "What's wrong?!"

"Xiao Tao's been shot, quick, take a look at him."

"Let me through." Su Tianyu pushed Bai Hongbo aside and glanced at the location of Bai Hongtao's wounds. Then, he reached out his hands and tore open his jacket and t-shirt.

On his blood-soaked back, four very obvious bullet holes were gushing blood. In two of the wounds, the skin was indented by at least a centimeter.

Seeing this, Su Tianyu was visibly stunned.

"Xiao... Xiao Yu, what do we do? He's bleeding!" Bai Hongbo shouted anxiously.

Su Tianyu turned to look at Lao Hei. "Give me the stuff from the bag."

Lao Hei opened the canvas bag and pulled out a medical first-aid kit from the small compartment inside. After Su Tianyu took it, he got into the car first and said, "Second Brother, get out, get in the other car. Lao Kong, keep driving, faster!"

Less than a minute later, the car started again and headed towards Dragon City.

Sitting in the car, Su Tianyu tore open the first-aid kit and pulled out a large number of hemostatic bandages, gauze, and a portable wound suture device.

"Xiao Yu... is my brother going to be okay?" Bai Hongbo asked anxiously from the back.

"Don't make a fuss, don't make a fuss!" Su Tianyu didn't give Bai Hongbo a clear answer. More accurately, he couldn't bear to answer.

The portable suture device closed the four wounds on Bai Hongtao's body, and then Su Tianyu applied a large number of hemostatic bandages to the external wounds.

The bleeding from his back stopped, but blood was still flowing from Bai Hongbo's mouth and nose, and his consciousness began to blur.

"...Why... why is he still vomiting blood? His back is injured, why... why can't the bleeding from his mouth and nose be stopped?!" Bai Hongbo kept asking Su Tianyu.

Su Tianyu was silent for a moment, then slowly looked up at Bai Hongbo and whispered, "...He... he might not make it."

Hearing this, Bai Hongbo was instantly stunned. "Go to hell, that's impossible!"

Hearing Su Tianyu's answer, Kong Zheng Hui also glanced at Bai Hongtao in the rearview mirror and slammed his fist hard on the steering wheel.

...

Karl Life Village.

Xu Er, his eyes bloodshot and mentally broken, roared at the mechanic repairing the car, "How long until it's fixed?"

"Soon, soon!" the mechanic replied urgently, lying on the side of the car and changing the tire.

"Hurry up, the gunshots have been going on for so long. If we attract the Sinaloa government troops, it'll be hard for us to leave," Xu Er urged again.

"I... I know," the mechanic said, continuing to work.

Xu Er pointed to the two people on the side of the road and shouted, "You two, take a car out and scout around to see if there's any activity on the road."

Although the Sinaloa region was a lawless zone, it still had rebel armed forces, private armed forces, and government troops. If the gunfight attracted these people, it would be very troublesome.

Xu Er's situation was also very bad. Dragon City was about a two-hour drive away, and several brothers from the Ma gang had been injured during the gunfight. The situation was quite dangerous.

"Ring ring ring!"

A phone rang, and Xu Er answered it. "Hello, Brother, there must be someone from the other side coming out of the city to meet them. Did you stop them?"

"Stop my ass!" Xu Hu cursed irritably. "The Yu family has garrison troops protecting them. Once people run away from you, they'll definitely find the garrison to send them into the city. What am I supposed to stop them with?"

"No, you guys should meet them further out, just in case you run into them!" Xu Er was unwilling to give up.

"Master called me and told me to go back to see the customs and naval people." Xu Hu replied in a low voice, "You guys fired guns outside the district. The nature of this matter is different now. We have to listen to what the higher-ups want to do."

"Bullshit!" Xu Er cursed, "I'm risking my life outside the district, and four or five of my brothers are seriously injured. Now the higher-ups want to have a meeting to discuss it? I'll discuss your mother! Can they support us? Can this thing still be done?"

"Calm down!" Xu Hu also cursed irritably, "There are so many roads into the city, how do you know which way they're going? You want to stop them? Are you going to stop them with guns? What if you run into the garrison troops?!"

Xu Er was silent.

"Stop talking nonsense. If you were really capable, you wouldn't have let the other side snatch the person away while you were holding them down." Xu Hu's words were full of complaint. "I'll have someone pick you up. Come back quickly!"

After saying that, the two ended the call.

On the road, the mechanic stood up and shouted, "Second Brother, one of the cars definitely can't be driven. There aren't enough tires to fix it. Let's leave it here and squeeze in together."

"Damn it!" Xu Er cursed and got into the car through gritted teeth.

...

About an hour and twenty minutes later, two cars stopped by the Dragon River Bridge to meet seven SUVs that had driven out of the city.

The door of one of the SUVs opened, and Bai Dabiao, Su Zhengcai, Old Man Kong, and others got out.

"These little bastards are really capable, they actually made it out." Su Zhengcai breathed a slight sigh of relief after seeing the two cars.

The car door of the first car opened, and Su Tianyu, covered in blood, got out.

Su Zhengcai was stunned for a moment and immediately went to meet him, asking, "You... are you alright?"

Su Tianyu lowered his head. "I'm... I'm fine."

The driver's and passenger's side doors were also pushed open, and Kong Zheng Hui and the others got out, all with empty eyes and pale faces.

"What's wrong?" Su Zhengcai felt that something was wrong and immediately asked Su Tianbei again.

"Xiao Tao... Xiao Tao...!" Kong Zheng Hui wanted to answer, but he couldn't bring himself to say it.

Hearing this, Bai Dabiao rushed to the car in two steps, looked inside, and saw Bai Hongbo holding his brother, facing away from the car door, crying bitterly.

"Xiao Tao, son!" Bai Dabiao rushed into the car like a madman.

...

On the road.

Yu Mingyuan held his phone and said to his father, "It's okay, the person has already left the city."
