Qizi

As soon as Ling Xiao got off the net, he saw Yingfeng sitting across from him. He didn't expect him to go and turned back. Ling Xiao immediately became alert, like a threatened animal fluffing up in an instant.

"What? Figured it out? Are you going to come back and beat me up?"

"You went to find the pillow crane, didn't you?" Yingfeng asked bluntly.

Ling Xiao's first reaction was that he was spying on him again, "Aren't you tired always asking you knowingly? Or have you figured out some way to force me to say it myself?"

"Don't go with him." Yingfeng simply gave the order this time.

Ling Xiao was taken aback for a moment, and vaguely guessed that Zhenhe had concealed the truth from him, but he didn't intend to tell Yingfeng the truth, so he jumped out of bed and went straight to the bathroom.

"Just now I shot on impulse, you can fight back, I won't fight back," Yingfeng raised his voice behind him, "but I won't allow you to join his organization."

Although he was conceding in the first half of the sentence, he couldn't hear the tone of concession at all. Instead, he used the attitude of a benefactor to draw out the key point of the second half of the sentence.

Ling Xiao had already filtered out the first half of the sentence, until he heard the second half, his anger rose, he turned around and punched straight up without any explanation.Although the torment in the past few days had consumed a lot of his physical strength, Yingfeng's nose still couldn't escape the fate of breaking his nose after being beaten at such a close range.

But just when Ling Xiao's full blow with the sound of the wind was only an inch away from the target, he stopped abruptly, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't move forward an inch.

Ling Xiao was full of contempt for Yingfeng's back-and-forth attitude, "Don't you fight back? Oh yes, control doesn't belong to the category of fighting back, does it? Stop being hypocritical."

"I didn't," Ying Feng clarified blankly, even though Ling Xiao's hard fist was in front of him, he didn't blink, "I didn't control you."

Ling Xiao retracted his hand in disbelief, he could really move, but he swung it again, still staying in the previous position.

"Ha," he suddenly had an even worse realization, "As an indentured son, don't you even have the right to attack the indentured owner? What a wonderful system, hahahaha."

He simply gave up the idea of ​​punching him, no matter what Yingfeng said next, he didn't want to pay attention to it.

"If you choose to go with him, here or in prison, you choose a place to stay."

Ling Xiao turned a deaf ear to this naked threat, and got into the bathroom. His current state is no different from being imprisoned.

The person in the mirror is the same as it was two days ago, but it has become less unbearable.Ling Xiao thought, probably because compared with Yingfeng, his face looked much more pleasing to the eye.

He inhaled and exhaled in front of the mirror, repeated three times, "This is the last day, I have survived the first two days, and today must be fine."

He stretched out his fist and touched the person in the mirror, "Come on, Ling Xiao!"

Ling Xiao cheered himself up, and went out with a towel.

Yingfeng watched him put in a lot of effort to tie up his hands with a towel, and finally clenched the corner of the towel with his teeth to tie a tight knot.

"what are you doing?"

Ling Xiao didn't want to say that he almost got up the night before and committed suicide with a knife. The pain level increased for two consecutive nights. He was afraid that he would lose control of his impulse and do something he regretted if he had an attack tonight.

Even though he didn't get an answer, Yingfeng guessed his intentions, "How can a towel restrain you? You can break free casually."

"All you see is one lock," Ling Xiao tightened the knot tightly again, "but I have three."

Yingfeng was puzzled, "Where is it?"

"And my determination and self-control."

After he said this, he turned around and fell back, "Don't worry, I will never roll over to your side uncontrollably, so as not to affect your sleep."

The last night of the disordered period came quietly. The first night represented fear, the second night represented depression, and the third night represented severe cold. Ling Xiao curled up in a quilt, feeling that his body had been frozen into ice.

What is more unbearable than severe cold is the presence of a known source of heat.The tangible warmth came from next door continuously, and it stopped abruptly just when it was passed to him.How much he longed to get closer, a little closer, but subjectively resisted to completely kill this impulse.

Ling Xiao put the quilt over his head and hugged him as much as possible. The sound of teeth chattering in the dark became the only sound source that accompanied him in this long and unbearable night.

-

"Ling Xiao!" Ting Lei ran over with concern when he saw Ling Xiao early in the morning. As soon as he habitually reached out to hug his shoulders, he remembered what happened yesterday, and changed his way halfway and scratched the back of his head. Are you okay?"

Ling Xiao knew that he had good intentions, but it was unbearable for everyone to take care of him as the weak side, "It's okay, how about you?"

"What can I do, but Yingfeng's current strength is really..." Halfway through his words, he remembered that the reason why Yingfeng was so strong that he could lift him up with one hand was due to Ling Xiao's ability. Dear, I immediately changed my mouth.

"But having said that, the next thing to do is physical training, can you bear it? Otherwise, I'd better ask for leave," I always feel that Ling Xiao's complexion is worse today than yesterday, and he can fall down at any time after running 500 meters.

"Don't think of me as weak," Ling Xiao was already preparing to warm up.

"You're just too strong," Ting Lei said anxiously for him, "Occasionally, you won't lose a piece of meat if you give in."

"Assemble!" The instructor blew his whistle, and no accident saw Ying Feng and Ling Xiao in the team.

"Today's physical training goal is [-] meters. This distance is already the limit for some weak races, but it is only the most basic requirement for us. If someone is promoted to a military academy in the future, they will find that this distance is just a distance. For the length of the warm-up, everyone must complete the run within the stipulated time, and those who can’t reach it, run again tomorrow, and start now!”

The students each chose the most suitable initial speed, and set off one after another. In the past, Ling Xiao, who was in the first place in this kind of training, just ran conservatively in the middle today. A few friends who were worried about him followed around. As for Yingfeng, because of his uncommon physical strength and speed, he left everyone far behind.

With less than half the distance to the finish line, Ling Xiao's footsteps were obviously sluggish. Even people who lacked his stamina on weekdays were not as short of breath as he was, and anyone could tell that he was in poor condition.

"Ling Xiao, please take a leave of absence, the instructor can understand."

Ling Xiao shook his head, but quickened his pace instead, and everyone had no choice but to keep up.

Yingfeng ran the whole distance in only two-thirds of the usual time. For him, this distance was really just a warm-up.

The instructor admired his proud student even more, "How about it, are you ready to apply for Yutian?"

Yingfeng said disapprovingly, "Stay in school for probation, don't think so much."

"With your current level, even Yutian's major can be chosen arbitrarily. I heard that Major General Fu Yao is currently serving as a guest instructor in Yutian. If you are lucky, you may be able to go to the department he teaches."

Yingfeng recalled the name for a while, and then remembered that he was the short officer.

"Oh," he still remembered the punch the other party gave him.

"Fu Yao is the youngest major general in Tianxiu. He is quite capable in person, but that is not what he is most famous for."

"what is that?"

"He is the first person in the history of Tianxiu to complete the coming-of-age ceremony. He became an adult when he was four years old."

After finishing speaking, his eyes floated evilly, "It is rumored in private that this is the reason why he can't grow tall."

Then his expression became serious again for a second, "But don't tell him about this in front of him, especially don't mention his height, or you will end badly."

Yingfeng thought, he has already experienced how miserable it is.

After a while, the students came back one after another, but Ling Xiao was not included, and the person who was the first to feel uncomfortable every time he didn't rush was left behind today, and even Yingfeng was not used to it.

When Ling Xiao appeared in Yingfeng's field of vision, it was not a short period of time later, even when he was in his worst condition, he would not be able to run at this speed.

Ling Xiao's last distance was entirely supported by one breath. He would never allow himself to fall down in the middle, and he would run the full distance even though his throat was sweet, his breathing was difficult, and his legs were as heavy as if they were filled with lead.

At the moment when he reached the finish line, as if he had completed some kind of mission, Ling Xiao's eyes went dark, and he finally fell down completely, but it was different from yesterday, this time he never stood up again.

"Ling Xiao!" There was an exclamation from the crowd, and everyone surrounded him from all directions, but they were worried about Ying Feng, so they turned to him for help.

Yingfeng walked over and found that Ling Xiao had passed out on the ground motionless, as if he had lost consciousness.

"Yingfeng," Ting Lei secretly said with anger, "Ling Xiao was already out of order yesterday, and he only ran [-] meters today and it turned out like this. What did you do to him?"

"What are you talking about?" a girl interrupted them anxiously, "Hurry up and send them to the infirmary."

Yingfeng leaned over and hugged Ling Xiao by the waist, and walked towards the direction of the medical building without saying a word, leaving the worried-looking students behind.

His strength has almost doubled, and he doesn't feel any effort in holding Ling Xiao. The person in his arms is pale, his eyes are closed, and the hair at the temples is wet with sweat and sticks softly to both sides of his cheeks.

Yaotai opened the door, seeing such a picture, her expression was not looking good.

"Take him to the bed," she ordered him coldly.

Yingfeng did so, and then watched her connect the testing instruments to him one by one.

The inspection results came out soon, and after seeing the report, Yaotai wished he could beat Ying Fengfeng right now.

Yingfeng didn't know why she looked at her and gave him a fierce look, and then he didn't know what treatment equipment to connect to Ling Xiao's temple.

Yaotai pressed a few keys on the instrument, and blue numbers appeared on the panel, and began to rise gradually.

"Do you know what this is?" she asked angrily.

Yingfeng shook his head.

"A sleep aid machine that can make people temporarily fall into a deep sleep, but after waking up, the previously accumulated mental pressure will be doubled back to the user, almost equivalent to drinking poison to quench thirst. No one will use it unless it is a last resort. .He is now in a deep sleep and won't hear us."

Yingfeng frowned.

"I asked you to take good care of him. That's how you take care of him? Do you know that he hasn't eaten for three days."

Yingfeng looked confused, "Why?"

"Let me ask you, have you applied for a secondary card for him?"

"...He didn't mention it to me."

Yaotai strongly restrained her urge to make a move.

"Didn't I tell you that after becoming a deed, the main card will be degaussed, and all the amount on it will be transferred to your card. Didn't you find that you have more money?"

It was only then that Yingfeng remembered that there was an extra four yuan on the card after returning from the internship. The amount was too small, so he thought he had made a mistake.

"He didn't mention it, don't you know how to ask?" Yaotai pointed at them angrily, "One doesn't ask, the other doesn't tell, don't you have to wait until you're starving to death before you open your mouth?"

"He didn't eat or sleep for three days, and he just did a lot of physical exercise. I think it's a miracle that he can persist until now before passing out! Even with our physique, we can't stand such a toss!"

"I think your disorder is worse than his. People who can't control their emotions are not qualified to be the owner! If I knew this, I would rather send him to the CDC than be with you. At least he won't be hungry. die!"

Yaotai reprimanded her head and face, but Yingfeng never said a word.

Yaotai was too angry and had to stop for a while before speaking.

"I solemnly warn you now that his psychological rating has reached E-, and there is only such a slight gap from mandatory hospitalization, but this is not the most serious."

"He has suffered mild mental damage now, which will accompany him for the rest of his life and will never heal. Have you seen the principal? He is a typical example of severe mental damage. Do you also want Ling Xiao to develop in his direction? "

"If you continue to behave like this, he will die. I'm not kidding you!" She tried her best to suppress her tone, "Yingfeng, people in Tianxiu can only have one partner in their life. Oh, the indentured owner will also stop growing, and your ability will be capped. Even if you think about yourself selfishly, you should take good care of him! The one who is lying on the bed is the only indentured child of your life. Squeeze out all practical thoughts!"

Yingfeng turned his head away uncomfortably, looked at Ling Xiao on the hospital bed, and then noticed that Ling Xiao's chest heaved faster than ordinary people, as if he only took half of his breath and then couldn't wait to spit it out, like an animal.

"Why is he breathing so fast?"

"Qizi's heartbeat and breathing will be faster than before. Don't you feel that your heartbeat has slowed down? Qizi's life expectancy is lower than that of the owner on average, and you irresponsible owners are spared no effort to lower the average. It is really a great contribution.”

Yaotai glanced at the time, "He can still sleep for another hour. The disorder period has already passed, but you dragged it on for a day. When the spirit regurgitates tonight, it will be more painful than the previous few days. I see you What about the time?"

She shook her head and went out, leaving Yingfeng and Ling Xiao alone in the infirmary. He walked to Ling Xiao's bed, and the other party was sleeping peacefully. People who usually bark their teeth and claws will hide their sharpness after a deep sleep.The quarrel just now didn't affect him at all, Yingfeng couldn't imagine that this was his first sleep after the coming-of-age ceremony.

The blue light on the instrument is flashing and beating, and the numbers representing time are counting down mercilessly. In this cruel system, difficulties can only be overcome by human spirit. Even the most advanced medical instruments can only be overcome It can bring Qizi a short respite.

When Ling Xiao woke up, the room was empty. He probably just enjoyed the deepest sleep in his life, so deep that no dreams could sneak in.

But after the sleep problem was solved, the feeling of hunger was even stronger.He sat up and found that there were still unknown instruments connected to the top of his head. He took them off and was about to get out of bed when he bumped into something strange.

He lowered his head, and there was a bag of banana-flavored energy bread in his hand.
