handle

It was a long and painful torture.

The handkerchief was drenched in cold sweat in Zhi Yuan's hand, and he also scratched out holes in the cloth on the armrest of the reclining chair, blood stains from cracked fingernails were mottled around.But during the whole process, Zhi Yuan didn't make a single sound, because he knew that Ling Wenze couldn't be disturbed at this time.

I don't know how long it has passed, but Zhi Yuan only feels that the picture in front of her has become chaotic and blurred.

Ling Wenze had never conducted a human-machine combination experiment with such a mood.

He has been trying to stabilize his mind, allowing himself to concentrate on every subtle operation, and try not to think about the pain Zhi Yuan endured under his hands.Even though the degree of nerve fusion surpassed that of the previous subject No. 33, Ling Wenze didn't feel much joy. He only hoped that the operation could be completed as soon as possible so that Zhi Yuan could be relieved.

After finishing the last operation, Ling Wenze felt his whole body relax, and X's voice finally sounded: "The experiment was successful, congratulations doctor."

Only then did Ling Wenze smile, and looked at Zhi Yuan's face.

Zhi Yuan's sanity was already in a trance, Ling Wenze quickly loosened his restraints, separated the fingers of his left hand from the armrest one by one, put clothes on him, poured water again, and hugged him in his arms to feed him. Give him a drink.

"Zhiyuan, it's over, we succeeded."

After drinking a few sips of water from the cup, Zhiyuan came back to her senses, slowly raised her right arm, and looked at the mechanical hand that "grew" on her wrist.

Ling Wenze pulled up the sleeve of his clothes to wipe Zhi Yuan's sweat, and whispered in his ear, "Try to move it, just like your original hand."

Zhi Yuan's heart trembled, the pain in the severed hand still remained, and he tried hard to find the feeling when his right hand was still there.The next moment, he saw the five fingers of the mechanical hand curled up and clenched into fists.

Ling Wenze chuckled in his ear: "Successful, really successful. After a period of recuperation, you will be able to use it well. Wait for the future..."

Speaking of this, Ling Wenze suddenly stopped. He originally wanted to say that he would help Zhiyuan's robot arm with a small hot weapon when he got more A+ grade ore in the future, but he suddenly thought that the task has been completed, and they... Is there a future?

Ling Wenze put Zhi Yuan on the seat beside him, tried his best to stabilize his mind, went to the main computer and returned the screen to the desktop, as he thought, a line of words appeared there.

"Task 82: Completed. Task [-]: To be opened. The countdown is [-] days."

This sentence flashed by as usual, and Zhi Yuan had disappeared when she walked over and stood beside Ling Wenze.

Dazed and stunned, Ling Wenze almost wanted to roar: Your sister's task two!Why didn't the countdown restart from 100!Will there be mission three in the future!There are a total of 100 days without knowing how many tasks there are, it's so fucking cheating!

Zhi Yuan watched Ling Wenze staring at the screen with all kinds of frenzied expressions, and asked him cautiously: "Is there something wrong?"

Ling Wenze looked at Zhi Yuan with a confused face for a while, and when he was terrified, he hugged him in his arms, and said in a hoarse voice: "There is no problem...the experiment was successful. I just... I can't believe it."

Ling Wenze felt that he was even more afraid to tell Zhi Yuan about the countdown, really, this was so cheating, he really wanted to cry for himself.

Zhiyuan knew that Ling Wenze wasn't telling the truth, as he thought before, Ling Wenze was used to telling him only after he was sure of everything, which made him very powerless, but he knew that Ling Wenze himself must be suffering a lot of pain that he didn't know about, So he didn't want to force him to do anything.

Zhi Yuan could only caress Ling Wenze's back with her not-so-flexible mechanical right hand, and whispered in his arms: "No matter what happens, I will always be by your side."

The words "I'll be with you all the time" made Ling Wenze's eyes finally shed tears: Ma Dan, he felt that he was suffering even more, how could he break...

After coming out of the laboratory, just after dinner time, Ling Wenze asked someone to bring hot water for bathing.

Putting medicine on Zhiyuan's finger, Ling Wenze took out a right hand glove that he had prepared a long time ago and put it on him: "If you wear this in front of outsiders, it will be regarded as a fake hand that can't move. Keep it secret, wait until you are proficient.”

Zhiyuan let him put it on for herself, and nodded in agreement.

Ling Wenze called his servants to bring dinner, and after hastily finished eating, he dragged Zhi Yuan to lie on the bed.

Zhi Yuan was still looking at her mechanical hand, making various movements.

Looking at it, Ling Wenze felt that he was curiously studying his own limbs like a newborn baby.

Hearing Ling Wenze's chuckle, Zhi Yuan turned her head to look at him: "It's amazing, it's really like my own hand."

Ling Wenze smiled: "This thing is much stronger than ordinary hands, just Yingqian's sword, you can break it for him directly."

Zhi Yuan looked at Ling Wenze in amazement, then at the mechanical arm, thinking that since this thing was also forged from ore, breaking a sword seemed nothing unusual.

Holding the robotic arm and placing it beside Zhi Yuan, Ling Wenze tucked him in the quilt and extinguished the candle beside the bed.

"Go to sleep and study it tomorrow."

Zhi Yuan closed her eyes, thinking in her heart: No, there is always something different, when the mechanical hand is held by Aze, it doesn't feel it...

Hearing that Ling Wenze's breathing became steady, Zhi Yuan stretched out her left hand, found Ling Wenze's right hand as in the night before, and held it gently while enduring the pain in her fingertips—this warm and soft feeling is the real thing. Yes.

The fatigue of consecutive days was finally relieved after going to bed early this night.After being woken up by Zhi Yuan in the morning, Ling Wenze accompanied him for a while on the adaptation training of the manipulator before starting his day's schedule.

Emperor Yong has not mentioned the matter of appointing a crown prince for the past few days. A minister mentioned it today, and the factions of King Jia and King Cheng had another verbal battle, but finally they were suppressed by the impatient Emperor Yong, and there was still no conclusion.

Ling Wenze watched his eyes, nose, nose, and heart, standing there silently as the background board, pretending he didn't see or hear anything.

After the court, Ling Wenze led two eunuchs carrying books and walked towards Concubine Jin's palace.Zhiyuan had finished reading the book that he borrowed from Ling Wenjin before, so he had to return it.

When Ling Wenze arrived at Concubine Jin's palace, Ling Wenjin and Liang Cangqiong were still in class with his master, so he gave the book to Concubine Jin.

Concubine Jin said softly to him: "Ze'er, when will you bring your concubine over here and show me?"

Ling Wenze smiled: "Father might not agree."

"It's already your regular wife..." Concubine Jin sighed softly, "Forget it, if His Majesty really blames you, I can't afford it."

Ling Wenze changed the topic: "If Xiao Wu is free, you can let him play at my house."

Concubine Jin nodded in agreement: "I'll tell him when he comes back. You've finished reading these books, do you want to get some more?"

Ling Wenze said: "No need, I already live outside the palace, so it's very convenient to buy books."

After chatting with Concubine Jin for a few words, Ling Wenze left.

After coming out of the palace, thinking that Zhiyuan should be with Yingqian now, Ling Wenze didn't want to go back so early, so he decided to go to the "Baiding Bookstore" on Xiejie that Dongfangwo mentioned before to explore the way.

Xiejie was indeed not far from his Prince Ze's mansion. Ling Wenze asked his servants to take a carriage back to the mansion first, and after confirming that there was money in his pocket, he walked over on foot.

In the past twenty days or so, he still hasn't gone shopping in broad daylight.Standing on the noisy street now, looking at the passing people and listening to the hawkers and conversations, Ling Wenze suddenly felt unreal—he suddenly appeared in this dynasty, and was guided step by step by a strange X. , but don't know what the future will hold.

Standing in front of Baiding Bookstore, Ling Wenze stared at the plaque on the door in a daze.

The human-machine combination experiment that he has been thinking about for the past few years has been successful, and the second task given by X still does not know what it is, which makes Ling Wenze a little confused.If he had a choice, he hoped that he could stay after the countdown, because there was someone he couldn't let go of here.

"Young master, do you want to buy books?"

Interrupted from his thoughts by a crisp voice, Ling Wenze looked at the man.

A young man was standing inside the door of the bookstore, showing Ling Wenze a perfect professional smile, just like the impeccable "professional smile" he would encounter every year when he went to the mall in the League.

Ling Wenze suddenly didn't want to go in, he'd better bring Zhi Yuan with him when he has time.

Seeing Ling Wenze suddenly turn around and leave, Bai Yu's smile froze on his face, and he muttered in the direction he left: "What a weird person."

"What are you looking at?"

There was a voice from my husband-in-law behind him, and Bai Yu smiled and turned her head to meet him: "I was looking at a strange man, he stood in front of the bookstore for a long time, I asked him to come in but he turned around and left."

Bai Zhijian didn't see Ling Wenze, but frowned after hearing Bai Yu's speech, his already serious face became even more serious: "Knowing that it's a weirdo and calling him in! How many times have I told you to be careful!"

Bai Yu was already familiar with his character, but he didn't feel scared at all when he saw him like this. Instead, he took his arm affectionately and dragged him to the bookstore: "Azhi, are you tired? Sit down."

Bai Zhijian snorted, but sat down following Bai Yu's strength, allowing him to pinch his shoulders.

Looking at his side face, Bai Yu felt it was funny, but she didn't dare to laugh out loud at this moment, she just squeezed his shoulders and thought: When I met him for the first time in prison, why did I think this man looked scary? Woolen cloth?Obviously so cute.

Beauty is in the eye of a beholder, and Bai Zhijian's appearance and character, which even scares criminals, have all become cute spots that make him pleasing to Bai Yu today.

Bai Yu's surname was not Bai, but he took his surname after marrying Bai Zhijian.Everything in the past has passed away, and Bai Yu is extremely fortunate to meet Bai Zhijian and become his only companion in this life.

Feeling that the movement on his left shoulder stopped, Bai Zhijian turned his head to look at Bai Yu, only to find that this person was staring at him affectionately.

Afraid that Bai Yu would see the sudden shyness in his heart, Bai Zhijian shrugged his left shoulder with a haughty face, and said in a cold voice, "Why are you in a daze!"

Only then did Bai Yu come back to his senses, and continued his actions with a smile.
