perfect location

The towns in Lingnan are densely spaced and noisy, and the hustle and bustle is full of human fireworks.The soil here is dry, but the groundwater is quite rich, and the locals like to dig wells to drink water.The water is sweet, and the watered melons and fruits are also clear.It's just that the land is barren and there is not much food that can be produced every year.

The state allocates a sum of relief funds to Lingnan every year. It is not said to be rich, but there will be no news about people starving to death.

Looking around now, most households have small two-story buildings with a simple fruit shed outside.

The melon tastes the best in winter. Just picked from the vine, it is fresh and green. I wash the melon casually with a basin of water from the well, cut it neatly with a knife, and serve it to the table for guests to taste. .This house is the same, the child took it from the elders, held the melon, squeezed a piece into his mouth, and looked into the living room with a pair of eyeballs cleverly.Seeing this, his grandma frowned and called him: "Xiaofeng, bring this here."

The child was wearing an old jacket, his cheeks were rough red from the wind, and he walked over with big strides.

Only then did the old man say kindly to Xia Chen in front of him: "There's nothing to eat here, this melon is sweet, you eat first."

Xia Chen hurriedly said thank you, reached out and took a small bite to eat.Xiaofeng kept staring at him, and at the box he brought, and said to his grandma happily, "It's been a few years since the doctor came to the family."

"Keep your mouth shut. You are not allowed to call doctor, you have to call brother!"

This is not unreasonable, you have to be careful in everything.The army has missions and has settlements in various places.The accompanying doctors will be arranged here and will not be taken to the mission point.Once there is an injury or an accident story, everyone will sneak back to the settlement point to find their own doctor.If you're being followed, that's a different story.

There are many poisonous insects in the Lingnan area, and many people die every year. There is a shortage of supplies and medicine.It's really difficult to go on a mission without an accompanying doctor. Although the probability of accidents is extremely small, just in case, the mission team will still set up a settlement point and arrange a doctor inside.

The settlement point this time is an old lady's house.She participated in the war when she was young, and she was considered half a soldier. Later, she married someone and came to Lingnan to settle down.Living on the edge of Lingnan, it doesn't attract much attention.She had been asked to help in the past few missions.Seeing that Xia Chen was absent-minded, the old man thought that he was tired, so he took him to the room to rest: "You will live in this room these days. If someone asks, I will say that the grandson of my little sister came to visit me when I was young. I This person has many friends, and people often come to see me, so others will not be suspicious."

Xia Chen said politely, "Thank you grandma."

Followed by a little tail familiar: "I cleaned up this room for you this morning, are you satisfied?"

The old man nodded Xiaofeng's forehead: "Let's play." Xiaofeng tipped his nose at her and continued to follow Xia Chen, "Brother, shall we play spinning top later?" He took out a spinning top from his pocket. Spinning Top looked at Xia Chen expectantly.Letting the old man push him away, Xiaofeng can always find a chance to tie himself at the door of Xia Chen's room.

No way, Xia Chen had no choice but to politely shirk: "I don't know how to play with a spinning top."

"Then what do you like to play, let's play?" Xiaofeng was still standing at the door, did not enter the door, scratched his red cheek with his index finger, "You are different from the doctor who came here before, you are so beautiful, and the doctor on TV Like the stars on the show."

Lingnan is very poor, no Omega is willing to live here, even if there is, they will find a way to apply to return to the capital.The country has always given preferential treatment to rare Omega, therefore, the more prosperous the city, the more Omega there will be.The first time Xiaofengtou saw an Omega, he was an Omega pretending to be a Beta, as handsome as a TV star.He was a little excited, the spinning top in his pocket was not as attractive as Xia Chen in front of him.

Xia Chen was naturally in a good mood when he was praised, so he changed his face and smiled slightly at Xiaofeng: "How old are you, can you read?"

"Knowledge! I'm ten years old, in the second grade of elementary school. This semester, I took the third place in the class in Chinese."

There are only four people in their class.

Xiaofeng is very talkative, with a sophisticated mouth, able to talk about everything.Most of what he said was what he saw on TV, and Xia Chen didn't expose it, and responded with a sentence from time to time.It was only when Xia Chen arrived that he realized that he couldn't accompany him on the mission, so he was inevitably a little disappointed. He was not familiar with this family, so he thought he would spend a month in the house, but he didn't expect that with Xiaofeng as a clever ghost, life would not be boring .

During the day, Xiaofeng took him to experience farming life by watering melons in his yard, and also dug well water for him to drink.A ten-year-old child looks good at doing all kinds of rough work, and even builds a stone nest to light up scones for Xia Chen to eat.In the evening, he took Xia Chen to the roof to look at the stars, and told stories by pointing at the stars.

One is talkative and the other is reticent, but just like that, Xiaofeng is very happy.I don't want to go to the books anymore, and I don't want to eat, I just want to play with Xia Chen every day.

About half a month later, the night was quiet, and there was movement downstairs.Xiaofeng pushed open the door and went downstairs to have a urinate, but saw Xia Chen squatting in front of the sofa wearing a turtleneck sweater, administering medicine to a tall man.There was still a person standing beside the sofa, explaining the situation with all his might. In such a cold day, his forehead was covered with sweat.

Xia Chen frowned, without even looking at the person standing, he said coldly, "Shut up."

The man stopped talking, lowered his head, and still stood upright.The injured man sitting on the sofa couldn't help but said: "You go back first, be careful in case of trouble, you won't be so lucky next time. I can help you block it once, but not the second time."

The man nodded: "Yes, General Lu!"

Xia Chen then said: "You are too noisy, leave quickly." He was chasing people away, and his tone was not very good, which made the soldiers feel even more guilty.He bowed several times before leaving, and disappeared as soon as he left the door.Xiaofeng sat on the stairs and watched Xia Chen bandage the wound, very lightly and carefully, especially cautiously.

"Angry?"

Under the soft and dim light, Lu Xingshu's voice was low and low, afraid of disturbing the sleeping people upstairs.He looked at the quiet Xia Chen, and said indifferently: "It's just a small injury, the poison has been sucked clean."

"According to his description, this bug is poisonous." Xia Chen lowered his head and wrapped gauze around him, "Although you have been given serum, your legs may not be very flexible these days. Also, it is not suitable for serum production period Inject new elements into the body, if you need to take inhibitors for the past two days, you'd better take it easy and just rest."

"...just rest." Lu Xingshu thought about resting for a while before leaving. In order to suppress the pheromones of his Alpha, he usually took inhibitors every half a month when he went on missions. Yesterday, he happened to make up for it in advance. , luck is not bad.

"Your leg has an old injury, and now it's bitten by such a powerful poisonous insect. It's not in good condition." Xia Chen bandaged his wound, and seeing Lu Xingshu's slightly pale face, he felt a little distressed, "I'm a doctor , you have to listen to me."

Lu Xingshu took a deep breath: "One day at most."

Xia Chen slowly put away the medical tools, and asked softly, "Didn't you say the task is not cumbersome? It's been half a month."

"Something new happened." Lu Xingshu leaned on the sofa, his head 'buzzing' in pain.After a while, Xia Chen's fingers lightly pressed his temples, rubbing them lightly.It was only then that Lu Xingshu felt a little more relaxed and felt a little drowsy, "The organization is rooted in the ground. They and I wanted to go in and explore, but I didn't expect this group of people to raise a whole nest of poisonous insects. Today...a second lieutenant died It's over." At the end, Lu Xingshu was a little depressed.

Xia Chen's hand paused for a moment.

"The situation has become complicated. I will arrange someone to take you back tomorrow."

Xia Chen didn't understand, and immediately asked: "You let me go, who will deal with your injuries?"

"What we need now is professional military medical personnel who can really accompany them, and I have already applied to the capital." Such medical personnel are very few, and they must have both superb medical skills and the soldiers' keen sneaking ability.This rare medical personnel, mostly Alpha, gathered in the capital's first unit.

"I can do it too." Xia Chen almost didn't hesitate for a moment before taking the words.

Lu Xingshu vetoed him, very rational and decisive: "You have not received professional training, you are just an ordinary doctor."

"General Lu." Xia Chen was a little annoyed, Lu Xingshu's sudden decision made him very at a loss.As soon as he arrived in Lingnan, he was sent here and waited helplessly for half a month. Now that he finally knew a little about the progress of the mission, he said he would be sent back.Xia Chen doesn't want to go back, he is worried about Lu Xingshu, he is not a soldier, he is selfish.He couldn't watch his Alpha face danger and run away by himself, obviously it was so difficult to get to him.

He pursed his lips and clenched his fists with both hands: "General Lu, I will obey all orders, and I hope I can stay."

"The accompanying mission was supposed to be a doctor from the military hospital. It was also my negligence to bring you here this time." Lu Xingshu knew that Xia Chen might be unwilling, and completing the mission would be of great benefit and help to him when he returned to the capital.But this mission has changed, Lu Xingshu does not want to increase innocent casualties.

"My family members are all soldiers. Since I was a child..." Xia Chen's sophistry was interrupted before he could finish.

Hearing Xia Chen's excuses, Lu Xingshu suddenly became angry, this was the first time Xia Chen saw him angry, Lu Xingshu sternly said: "Xia Chen, this is an order, I hope you understand that I am not discussing with you." His voice was different from usual, with a little impatience and anger, settled like a hard rock.Just cut off this conversation abruptly, blocked all Xia Chen's words in his throat, and suppressed it unreasonably.

"Doctor Xia, you are just an ordinary doctor sent by the capital, and you have no right to protest against mission orders."

I thought it was a small organization of guaimai children and women, but after half a month of in-depth investigation, I found that there was an extremely large mysterious organization behind them.Otherwise, relying solely on the manpower and material resources of their small organization, it would be impossible to quietly establish a huge underground base in the Lingnan area.

Unlike other high-tech bases, this base is not high-end, and even looks a little crude from the outside.Around him are the most poisonous poisonous insects in the Lingnan area, which makes people daunting.A group of them had to work hard to get in.The inside is very empty, there are not many people, and many things are new. It seems that it has just been established, but the medical equipment is complete.Lu Xingshu smelled a strong smell of blood and a pheromone that he didn't know how to explain.

The pheromones mixed with Alpha and Omega are very confusing and disgusting.

Lu Xingshu and his party hid in a hiding place and saw a few people in isolation suits dragging a corpse out and throwing it into the poisonous insect pile.In an instant, the poisonous insects devoured the corpse until not even the bones remained.It stands to reason that once a person dies, any pheromones will stop instantly, but until this corpse is eaten clean, there are still strong Omega pheromones in the air.

They kill Omega in nue?

Still experimenting with Omega?

Either way, it's a felony.Lu Xingshu realized that relying on their rash intrusion now would only increase sacrifices.This organization was more difficult to deal with than he had imagined. If he continued to go deeper at this moment, he might unearth amazing secrets.And he and these fledgling second lieutenants may all be here today.

When he was leading people to leave the base, a second lieutenant accidentally stepped on the female of the poisonous insects, and the poisonous insects immediately surrounded them.If it wasn't for the sacrifice of one of the second lieutenants, he might have been swallowed up by now, and he wouldn't be here to fight with Xia Chen.

Lu Xingshu could tell just by looking at Xia Chen's injured expression that this little doctor hadn't even picked up a scalpel a few times since his debut, let alone such a dangerous mission of life and death.He must have been frightened, but he still twisted to follow the task, not knowing what was going on in his head.

He won't tell Xia Chen the specifics of the mission, Xia Chen is just a doctor, it's not good to know too much.Lu Xingshu got up, took his coat and was about to leave, Xia Chen followed behind without saying a word and grabbed the corner of Lu Xingshu's clothes.Lu Xingshu was about to say something more, but Xia Chen said quietly: "You said you want to rest for a day, and now it's only half an hour."

Lu Xingshu: "..." He wondered if Xia Chen didn't understand his words, were his words difficult to understand?

He turned around, and saw Xia Chen's usually cold face was full of loss and sadness.This emotion was so obvious that it was difficult for Lu Xingshu to ignore it.What the little doctor said just now... probably said it too seriously.

Xiaofeng who was sitting on the stairs couldn't hold back anymore: "Your adult's world is really complicated."

Lu Xingshu: "?"

Xia Chen: "... When were you here?"

Xiaofeng dragged his chin and looked at Xia Chen, showing a smirk, and then went directly back to his room to sleep.I don't know what's wrong with him, he used to be very chatty, but tonight he feels in a bad mood?Xia Chen didn't pay much attention to him, and helped Lu Xingshu upstairs.The old man had already fallen asleep, and it would not be appropriate for her to tidy up a room in the middle of the night. Xia Chen asked Lu Xingshu to sit on his bed: "Go to bed early."

He dug out a set of thinner sheets from the side cabinet and spread them on the floor. There was no pillow, he turned off the light, took his coat and lay down on the ground.

Lu Xingshu is a soldier, and he is used to sleeping on the cold floor, but Xia Chen is not.It was cold on the ground and his coat was not warm enough, so he couldn't help sneezing.The room was dark, only the moonlight from outside the window came in sporadically, showing a cool mood.

Lu Xingshu said: "Doctor Xia, you sleep on the bed, and I sleep on the floor."

Xia Chen didn't move, but turned his back to Lu Xingshu: "You are injured, you should rest well."

"You're going to catch a cold like this."

"I am a doctor……"

"The doctor won't be sick anymore?" Lu Xingshu didn't know if Xia Chen's head was made of wood lumps, whether it was hard or not, and it couldn't be pierced if it was soft, which made people bother to speak more.He has the temperament of a soldier. Although he loves to read books, he is not a literati after all.Xia Chen stubbornly refused to get up, covered his head with his coat and did not move.Lu Xingshu felt uncomfortable when he saw it, he went over and pulled him up, and picked him up in the air, so scared that Xia Chen wrapped his hands tightly around his neck.

The heart speeded up, Lu Xingshu smelled very good.

Xia Chen became dazed, his eye sockets were astringent, with a little mist, which was difficult to notice in the dark night.He hugged Lu Xingshu tightly, pressed his forehead against his chest, and felt his steady heartbeat.Different from his unashamed heartbeat, Lu Xingshu's heartbeat is so normal, without a trace of tension or joy.

It's not fair...

There was a bit of bitterness in Xia Chen's heart, he was put on the bed by Lu Xingshu, and he heard Lu Xingshu's commanding tone: "Sleep." Then, Xia Chen took his hand.

"General Lu, let's sleep together."
