"Careful..." Fang Bie's hands trembled slightly as he held a thread as thin as a strand of hair, while Ethan held up his sword and carefully cut.
"Ugh, finally finished cutting. Hey Ethan, when you were grabbing these tools, why didn't you think of bringing a couple of knives?" Fang Bie's fingers were still trembling, not from nervousness, but because he had just been cut twice.
Ethan rolled his eyes at him, his shiny bald head reflecting the blue light above. "Who was it that told me that the last thing we'd be short of here is knives, and told me not to bring any?"
Fang Bie lowered his head in resignation, "Okay, it's my fault. Tomorrow I'll make some small knives from Culinary Arts for you to use. Using an Iron Sword to cut suture, sigh!"
"Alright, the wound on her body has been cleaned. I used catgut suture to stitch her up, no need to remove the stitches, they should grow directly into the skin and won't leave a scar. She should be very happy when she wakes up."
Ethan said while tidying up his medical tools. Excitement lingered on his face. Performing surgery in such a world was truly a wonderful experience.
"Then the problem is," Fang Bie turned his head and looked at Xiao Yan and the other person, "Do you know who this woman is?"
One old and one young, both shook their heads hastily as if they had been wound up.
"Don't know, this brat insisted on saving her."
"I just saw she was pitiful and saved her. She wasn't in my hands for more than a few seconds, I don't know either."
Fang Bie waved his hand, "Alright then, she's already had an IV drip and a bit of anesthetic, she shouldn't wake up so soon. Let her lie on the bed for a while longer."
"Ethan, we'll temporarily lend the Laboratory for her to stay in?" Fang Bie turned his head to ask.
"OKOK, just an Operating Room, I usually don't come in here anyway." Ethan had no intention of leaving the Laboratory at all. He gently closed the door, turned around, and went to do his own things.
This was also something Tony had worked on last time. He insisted on trying out the physics rules and mathematical rules of their world in this World. The two of them were having a great time. Even now that Ethan was here alone, he would still take the time to work on these things.
Fang Bie had no choice but to take the two back to the Courtyard. After this series of events, their relationship gradually shifted from tense and hostile to that of strangers who knew nothing about each other.
"Sit down, I believe you have just as many doubts as I do." Fang Bie rummaged around in a Box beside him for a while, took out two Steps, and casually placed them on the ground. These became their temporary sofas.
Xiao Yan didn't even wait to sit down completely before impatiently asking his question, "Brother, are you also an Earthling?"
"I'm not only an Earthling, but also a fellow countryman!" Fang Bie answered him with a smile, "We're all Chinese, descendants of Yan and Huang!"
"That's right, hehe, that's right!" Xiao Yan scratched his head and said with a slightly surprised smile.
"What? Disciple, is this sentence of yours a cipher?" Yao Lao was unhappy. He looked at the two smiling at each other with a confused expression, feeling that these two seemed to have reached some deal behind his back.
"No, Master, this involves my true origins, I'll tell you slowly when you have time." Xiao Yan said quickly, "I'm just too happy, to actually be able to meet someone from the same world as me here!"
"Not necessarily." Fang Bie poured cold water on him, "Ethan is also an Earthling, but he and I are not from the same Earth."
"Multiple Earths... are you talking about parallel universes?" Xiao Yan seemed to have his long-sealed memory unlocked by Fang Bie, and distant memories surged up layer by layer.
Although he could be considered a native of the Battle Qi Continent, as long as his identity as a transmigrator was not erased, he could never forget his past memories.
"Maybe, after all, I'm not some kind of immortal, unable to be omniscient and omnipotent." Fang Bie left him with a simple thought, "You're also an Earthling? Then how did you end up in a Teleportation Portal?"
"You can appear in this World, of course I can also appear in a Teleportation Portal, we're all just brought together by fate!" Xiao Yan, with the mature mentality of a man in his thirties, said with a look of hardships in his eyes.
"Heh, that's right!" Fang Bie nodded. Although their identities were different, this sense of shared melancholy, like fellow sufferers in a foreign land, was quite similar.
"Although I don't understand what you two are talking about, I understand the basic meaning." Yao Lao quickly stood up to assert his presence, and glared at Xiao Yan at the same time, what's wrong? Got a fellow countryman and forgot your Master?
"You two are both from the same place, and just happened to meet here? Then I wonder if anyone can tell this old man, what exactly is going on?" Even with his vast experience, he still found it difficult to understand such a thing as transmigration.
"Actually, you can consider it an unexpected disaster. I was originally planning to open a Teleportation Portal connecting to other worlds, but you happened to run into it." Fang Bie explained simply, "As for the matter of traversing worlds, ask your disciple, he probably knows no less than I do."
"It's all bizarre transmigration, who knows more than whom?" Xiao Yan noncommittally said, "Master, you can understand it as the moment we passed through that door, we were no longer in the Battle Qi Continent, but came to this place, a place completely different from the Battle Qi Continent."
"Hmm, this explanation is not wrong, at least there's no such thing as Battle Qi you mentioned here." Fang Bie nodded, "Simply put, you have already left the Battle Qi Continent and arrived in another completely new World."
"What old world, new world? Are you saying that in the blink of an eye, we've already left the Battle Qi Continent?" Yao Lao instead looked disbelieving.
"Legend has it that for tens of thousands of years, no one has been able to successfully leave the Battle Qi Continent. Are you saying that in just the time it took this old man to close his eyes, we have already accomplished a Target that countless Battle Saints have been unable to achieve?"
"The World is full of wonders. Before you come to this World, you will never know what exactly has happened." Fang Bie said, "Just like the Battle Qi produced by your Continent, just like the Teleportation Portals I open in this World, everyone has their own fate. Our ability to meet here can also be considered fate."
"Then what's the name of this World?" Xiao Yan asked again.
"Name?" Fang Bie smiled, a hint of enigmatic mystery in his smile, "It's called: My World!"
As the sound fell, it was as if thunder roared, and at this moment, just a few drops of rain happened to fall along the eaves.
