Mainland Martial Arts

Chapter 242 Recovery from a Serious Illness

Jian Cang, carrying Sun An, gradually disappeared into the wilderness. On the wilderness, only the frozen Lin Feng and Xu Tian remained, as if recounting the story of this thrilling battle. The wind still blew, the snow still fell, and the wilderness returned to its former silence.

At this moment, the fate of the frozen Lin Feng took an unexpected turn. The Star Blade suddenly blazed with a dazzling white light, as dazzling as a brilliant star in the dark wilderness. The light was mysterious, as if imbued with boundless power. The ice that had frozen Lin Feng, illuminated by this light, suddenly cracked with a subtle sound, and a crack slowly spread across the ice like a spider web.

Lin Feng felt a strange force surge into his heart, and his consciousness seemed to be drawn into a mysterious vortex. Then, he suddenly opened his eyes, and the scene before him shocked him.

The white ceiling, the bright lights, and the familiar yet unfamiliar smell of disinfectant. Lin Feng stared blankly at his surroundings, his eyes filled with confusion and bewilderment. He slowly lowered his head, looking at his hospital gown and the blanket covering him, a strong sense of unreality welling up in his heart.

"This... isn't this in the hospital?" Lin Feng muttered to himself, his voice trembling. He tried hard to recall what happened before. He was clearly still fighting fiercely with Jian Cang, so how could he suddenly appear here?

Just as Lin Feng was lost in thought, the middle-aged woman sitting next to him was startled awake by his sudden rise. The middle-aged woman was dressed simply, her hair was half gray, and time had carved deep marks on her face, but her eyes were full of kindness.

The middle-aged woman was so excited when she saw Lin Feng wake up that her eyes lit up instantly, as if she had seen the most precious treasure in the world. She immediately rushed over and hugged Lin Feng tightly, tears pouring out like a flood.

"Feng'er, you finally woke up. We were really scared." The middle-aged woman's voice trembled. She hugged Lin Feng tightly, as if she was afraid that he would disappear again.

Lin Feng was stunned by the scene. The battle scene was still lingering in his mind, and now he was suddenly hugged by his mother. He looked at the middle-aged woman in front of him, and a complex emotion surged in his heart. Even though he had just been in a life-and-death battle with Jian Cang, the person before him was his mother in his previous life. The warmth of family love instantly surged in his heart.

Lin Feng hugged the middle-aged woman again, tears streaming down his face. "Mom, I really miss you." Lin Feng's voice was filled with longing and emotion.

The middle-aged woman was even more relieved when she saw Lin Feng hugging her. She hugged Lin Feng again, patted his back gently, and comforted him: "It's okay, it's okay, Mom misses you too."

The two hugged each other and cried, their tears soaking each other's clothes. After a while, the middle-aged woman let go of Lin Feng and wiped her tears. She looked at Lin Feng with her eyes full of concern.

"Feng'er, look at me, are you hungry?" the middle-aged woman asked gently.

Lin Feng looked at the middle-aged woman in front of him, his heart filled with warmth. He shook his head, then nodded, his eyes full of confusion.

"Mom, what's wrong with me?" Lin Feng asked, his voice full of confusion.

The middle-aged woman wiped her tears and said slowly, "Feng'er, you were seriously ill and admitted to the ICU. You've been there for a month and eventually became a vegetable. You've been lying in bed for two years. We were so worried and hoped every day that you would wake up. Today, you finally woke up. It's great."

Lin Feng listened to his mother's words, his heart filled with emotion. He hadn't expected to experience so much, and in that mysterious world of battle, everything seemed like a dream. Yet, he clearly remembered every detail: the fierce battle, the powerful opponent, and the mysterious Star Blade.

At this moment, the doctor walked in with two nurses. The doctor had a smile on his face. He looked at Lin Feng and said, "Congratulations, young man. You have recovered very well and can be discharged. We just checked you and there is nothing wrong."

The middle-aged woman smiled happily when she heard the doctor's words. She quickly stood up and thanked the doctor. Then, she began to help Lin Feng with the discharge procedures and called Lin Feng's father to ask him to prepare a meal for Lin Feng to eat when he returned.

Lin Feng sat on the hospital bed, looking at his busy mother and the doctors and nurses, his heart filled with warmth. He knew that he had returned to the real world, but that mysterious world of battle was deeply imprinted in his mind.

As he went through the discharge procedures, Lin Feng's mood gradually calmed down. He began to think about his future. Would his experience in that battle world have an impact on his life? He didn't know, but he knew he had to cherish the life he had and spend more time with his family.

Finally, the discharge procedures were completed. The middle-aged woman led Lin Feng out of the hospital. The sun shone on them, warm and comfortable. Lin Feng took a deep breath, taking in this familiar world.

"Let's go, Feng'er, let's go home." The middle-aged woman held Lin Feng's hand, a happy smile on her face.

Lin Feng nodded, and he looked at his mother, his heart filled with emotion. Together they walked towards home, where his father and warm meals were waiting for him.

On the way home, the bustling city was bustling with activity. Sunlight streamed down the streets, reflecting a dazzling array of colors. At a bus stop, Lin Feng and his mother quietly waited for the bus to arrive.

Lin Feng's eyes were a little confused. He looked at the tall buildings around him, and a strong sense of unreality surged in his heart. That world full of martial arts and fierce battles seemed to be just a distant dream.

The mother stood aside, her face full of fatigue and relief. She looked at Lin Feng from time to time, her eyes full of love.

Finally, the bus slowly approached, the doors opened, and mother and son boarded. Lin Feng sat by the window, gazing out at the familiar yet unfamiliar world. The constant stream of vehicles, the hurried pedestrians—everything felt as if he hadn't seen it in ages. Indeed, after all, he had been in a coma for two years.

The bus roared along the city streets. The people on board chatted, their voices echoing. Lin Feng listened to the sounds, a faint smile on his face. He felt the reality and warmth of life.

Seeing Lin Feng's smile, the mother was also very happy. She patted Lin Feng's shoulder gently and said, "Feng'er, we have moved to a new home in the past two years. I no longer work and have been taking care of you. When you get used to it, I can go out and find a job."
