A short story of love from 1029

ood rations of rice and noodles.Even so, the people here couldn't resist the urge to eat special meat. First, they ate dead people. When someone died, after the funeral, instead of being buried, their...I was a little worried about Teacher Ou, but I didn't expect the academic overachiever to adapt so well.

The little wife said he was knocked unconscious and taken to a mountain cave inside. I went in and saw that he had already woken up.

He woke up and immediately started thinking about how to save himself. Unexpectedly, instead of rushing to escape, he crouched down beside the elderly people and began studying them intently.

He was again peering into their noses and checking their bodies for any injuries.

" ... You should worry about yourself first, shouldn't you" I said, a little speechless.

Teacher Ou was startled and turned to look at me.

He squinted to adjust to the light from my phone, hesitating before asking, "Luò classmate"

I heard the sound of chains rattling as he moved, they sounded pretty heavy.

"Are you locked in"

"Well, it's not just me, everyone here is locked up... If we don't get to the hospital soon, things could get really bad..." he frowned and said.

"The hospital's no use, better leave it to the professionals." I turned my head to look at Mu Wanchen.

He was displeased with the cramped cave and didn't want to go inside, but those within were chained together on a massive stone lock.

"Cut these chains first, and get the person out before we deal with the snake venom" Master Yunfan frowned. "The smell in here is truly unpleasant."

"Gu" Master Ou frowned.

“You've been infected too, but you haven't grown strong enough yet. Don't ask so many questions, now is not the time to research.” I urged impatiently: "Come out yourself, you have the strength to walk."

Mu Wanchen drew his sword in the darkness, severing the chains. With a clang of metal against metal, sparks flew in the gloom.

Mr. Ou lowered his voice and asked me, "Do you often come into contact with these strange things and people"

"...that's about it, everyone's experiences are different, oh well, don't ask too much, this time you were unlucky to have met Xi Linzhou, but you were also lucky not to be seriously injured. Come out quickly!" I urged.

Teacher Ou's chains were severed by Mu Wanchen's strike. He straightened his clothes and helped carry these weak people out of the cave.

On the small hill in front of the Land Temple lay a heap of people, withered and gaunt like corpses.

“What are we going to do So many elderly and children have been sent to the hospital. We're bound to be questioned by the police, how will we explain it then” I looked at these frail people with difficulty.

"I'm going back to get medicine. I'll take it for about ten days, and it should dissolve the parasitic eggs in these people," Mu Wanchen said to me.

But ten days is not a short time! Surely so many people can't just be left here in this deserted village There's no one else here anymore.

"Well, then... how about we go back to my place" I suggested hesitantly.

Master Yun Fan immediately shook his head and said, “A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. Your family has many people and various personalities. You want to bring dangerous people home If one or two of them collapse and die in your house, how can you clear yourself of responsibility Don't be foolish.”

Indeed, in real life, no one can afford to get involved in matters concerning human lives.

As I was pondering how to accommodate these people, Mr. Ou suddenly let out a soft cough, causing us all to turn and look at him.

He looked conflicted, trying to speak calmly: "If there's nowhere to accommodate him, why not send him to that special hospital where Xi Linzhou used to be I can make the arrangements."

I frowned. "That hospital wasn't normal, that's for sure, everything about it was strange! Xi Linzhou was even thrown into the incinerator there—"

Mu Wanchen raised his hand to stop me from speaking. I bit my lip and didn't continue.

Ou-teacher smiled: "It seems you really dug up a lot of secrets... That hospital was just a front, it's actually a special research institute."

What

It's no wonder that Xi Lingzhou's "ward" looks so technologically advanced.

“I came back from abroad because... some special personnel in the country did ideological work on me, asking me to return and ‘contribute’. Both of my parents are still in the country, and I'm not fond of the cultural environment abroad, so I decided to come back.” Teacher Ou shrugged his shoulders and raised his hand in a gesture of surrender, showing that he was being open and honest with us.

"Special personnel from the state assigned me the identity of a university professor, allowing me to participate in some medical and biological research projects. I spend half my time on these studies..."

It's no wonder that he, a highly educated returnee from overseas, only teaches some public courses at university. He must be saving time to do research, right

"Well, now you're a host yourself. You can study firsthand," I shot him a glance.

Teacher Ou smiled: "Let's get down to business. I can contact the hospital staff to temporarily house these people. After all, they have observation value, and the hospital won't refuse."

The little wife wasn't pleased when she heard this: "No matter if these people are after money, their lives are at stake now. You're still thinking about research"

Teacher Ou waved his hand and said, "Don't get angry first. You need to know that as long as they still have 'observation value', the country won't let anything happen to them. If you send them to ordinary hospitals, there isn't enough medical funding or technology. The hospital would be helpless anyway, and it might even get reported by the media."

“Sometimes, the way a country operates can seem cold and unfeeling to ordinary people, but it's done with strategic vision and future planning, considering the interests of most. ... You girls are more emotional and prone to acting impulsively, but for now, before these people recover, you can be taken to that special hospital for nursing care and observation.”

"Yin Lu, you...you and your boyfriend, should be able to cure this so-called 'egg', right Once these people have lost their value for observation, they'll be sent back to the hospital. And then you can boldly say 'we are providing psychological counseling to left-behind elderly and children,' thus concealing your existence."

This....

He said that, I just wanted to give it all to him and let him handle it.

No wonder they used to burn books and bury scholars, these overachieving geniuses who read a lot are indeed “troublesome”.

Master Yunfan nodded and said, "This method is feasible. I didn't expect you to have such a background... Ou Haichen's identity was created by the state, right"

"Teacher Ou smiled and pushed up his glasses, saying, 'That's not important. I've fallen victim to it myself now and have to wait for your antidote. Just believe that I wouldn't joke about my own life.'"

"Alright," Yun Fan's master snapped his fingers. "I will verify and supervise through special channels. You contact the hospital people... Xiao Yin Luo, Mu Wan Chen, you two go prepare the antidote first."

"The antidote can only dissolve the egg. Qi that has been hosted for too long and damaged the body needs a very long time to recover little by little. Damaged bodily functions cannot be restored." Mu Wanchen stated bluntly.

Master Yunfan shrugged: "Do our best and have a clear conscience. As for life and death, it's not something we can control."

"Good." Mu Wanchen pulled me down, away from those people.

"Should I go back too" I asked.

He smiled: “You know, saying ‘come back’ is good.”

“Are you blaming me You were the one who said you were afraid of the cold and not used to it, so I stayed home.”diately.
