I have a city that never sleeps

In these three days full of hope and anxiety, everyone is looking forward to the early preparation of the antidote.

But through the isolated tent, they couldn't see anything. They only knew that a steady stream of medicinal materials were being transported into the experimental room every day for Yijia to choose.

Even on the last day, Yijia didn't come out for almost a whole day, shutting himself in a small and closed tent, and immersed himself in research.

And finally, when the first ray sprinkled on the ground, the curtain that had been covered was lifted by a hand, and then a golden figure walked out.

Holding a piece of paper in his hand, he walked very slowly, needing to stop and cough a few times from time to time, before he finally walked in front of the drowsy guard and patted him on the shoulder.

The guard woke up with a jerk, and saw Yi Jia standing in front of him, and his mind went blank for a moment.

But soon, excitement appeared in his eyes, and he stood up in a hurry almost immediately, stumbling and saying: "Little, young master?! Are you here?!"

Yijia handed him the paper in his hand, and said in a soft tone: "This is the prescription... Grind all the medicinal materials into powder, take it with water... and you will be cured."

Only the thin prescription could be seen in his eyes, the guard opened his mouth in shock, and then he was ecstatic: "Have you researched it! Have you really researched it!!"

The day is too long!

But after all, the hope in my heart was not broken!

He took the prescription with excited and trembling hands. It was obviously a thin piece of paper, but it seemed as heavy as Mount Tai in his eyes.

He tried his best to suppress the heart that wanted to jump up and scream, and said repeatedly: "Thank you, young master, thank you, young master, in this way, Huaining County will be saved!"

At this time, he finally focused on Yijia's face, but he was startled when he saw it, because Yijia's face was obviously not quite right, his face was flushed, his breathing was unstable, and even his body changed. He was staggering and looked dazed, as if it was not strange to faint anytime.

The guard's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly asked nervously: "Young master, are you feeling unwell? Is there anything I can do? Please just order."

"Let's go find medicinal materials...cough." Coughing in a low voice, Yijia didn't worry about his own affairs even at this time, "Some medicinal materials are no longer available in Huaining County...need to buy a lot of cough cough cough... go Bar."

The sound of coughing became more and more serious, and he even coughed out his lungs. The guards were worried and panicked when they heard it.

And when Yijia frowned and untied the mask on his face, in an instant, the glaring blood on the mask was reflected in his eyes, making his pupils shrink even more, and he raised his eyes to look at Yijia suddenly: "Young master?!"

It seems that because of fulfilling a wish, Yijia didn't show any other expression when facing this scene, but let out a sigh of relief and smiled slightly.

The guard thought that this was not a big problem in his eyes, and just thinking about it, he showed a relieved smile.

But the one who greeted him in an instant was the figure of Yijia who closed his eyes and leaned back——

With a bang, he fell heavily to the ground, his face was abnormally red, he opened his mouth and breathed rapidly, but lost consciousness.

"What's the matter with falling to the ground! Why is the young master so seriously ill and no one reported it to me!"

In the bedroom, Yu Wenshan looked like a gunpowder cartridge exploded, glaring at the guards sharply.

"Xiao Wu, I specially transferred you to the young master and ordered you to always supervise whether the young master is resting on time. Is this how you supervise!"

The palm hit the table heavily, and a crack appeared on the table, but all the guards present knelt on the ground with red eyes, without any excuse.

At this moment, Young Master Yijia was lying on the bed, unconscious due to high fever.

Yu Wenshan and the others were furious when they heard the news, but the guards accepted the punishment willingly. It was because they neglected the young master's health that this resulted in such consequences. They really deserve death!

"If there is something wrong with the young master, what's the use of you apologizing with death!" Yu Wenshan laughed back angrily, "I really want to cut you off now!"

"Leave them alone." Hearing his roar, Ji Tong was a little annoyed, almost nervously looking at Dr. Zhao beside Yijia who was treating Yijia, and asked, "What's wrong with the young master, sir, can you see it? "

Doctor Zhao stood up, frowning tightly, as if he could pinch a fly to death.

He sighed heavily, and shook his head helplessly: "It's very simple, it's poisoned."

"It was the disease that infected him."

"What?" Yu Wenshan and Ji Tong were shocked at the same time, "How is it possible, how could the young master be infected!"

"How can it be impossible?" Dr. Zhao didn't know the entanglement in their hearts, and snorted coldly, "The old man can be infected, and of course the young master is also possible. He is also a human being. Don't think that he is omnipotent just because he is touting him as a miracle doctor!"

"According to the old man, the young master's body is not fully developed, and his bones are much weaker than the two of you. In addition, he has been overworked recently, mentally and mentally exhausted, and he is still consuming internal energy to treat illnesses. He is wandering among seriously ill patients... Infected It's nothing unusual."

Ji Tong froze in place, and he hesitated for a long time before thinking: "Then, let's treat him with acupuncture right now, as I still have some internal strength, so I can..."

"It's useless." Dr. Zhao waved his hand, with a sad face on his face, "He is not in the early stage now. I am afraid that because he did not receive timely treatment, the toxin has penetrated into the bone marrow. In your terms, he is now a seriously ill patient. There is no other way than the antidote for detoxification."

Yu Wenshan's eyes lit up: "Prescription, he gave us the prescription for the antidote. Just take the antidote and you can save your life, right?"

"Yes." Dr. Zhao nodded, "But it's better to hurry up. According to the old man's observation, I'm afraid the young master won't last half an hour."

"What?!" Both Yu Wenshan and Ji Tong were shocked in their hearts, almost spinning their heads, "Impossible, he, he's been fine these days."

Dr. Zhao: "It is probably because of his belief in saving people that he persisted. Otherwise, judging from his current physical condition, he would hardly be able to walk... and when the antidote is made, the string in his heart will be tense. It broke, and it all exploded at once."

A trace of grief quickly appeared on Yu Wenshan's face, but he quickly said to the guards: "What are you waiting for, why don't you hurry up and make the antidote?"

"But, but." The guards moved their lips with difficulty, and lowered their heads deeply, "Huining County lacks the blind medicine in the prescription, and it cannot be prepared now..."

!!!

These words hit Yu Wenshan and Ji Tong like a thunderbolt from the clear sky, and their expressions almost changed suddenly.

The guard said in a low voice: "Besides, my subordinates have inquired, and there is no trace of this medicinal material in the nearby counties. I am afraid that if you want to obtain the medicinal material... it will take half a day at the earliest."

long time? !

Ika couldn't wait any longer.

A strong sense of fear spread in Yu Wenshan's heart. He clenched his fists and clenched his teeth, almost burying his head in the ground.

But soon, a flash of light flashed in his mind again, he raised his head abruptly, his eyes seemed to be shining with hope: "Sachet!"

Ji Tong's expression on the verge of tears also froze, and he understood Yu Wenshan's meaning in an instant: "Yes, sachet! The sachet is full of valuable medicinal materials, and there should be some young masters who need it!"

Just one copy is enough, just one copy is enough to save Yijia's life.

However, no matter how desperately Yu Wenshan prayed in his heart, when those trembling hands unwrapped the sachet, he suddenly froze.

——Because the sachet was empty, there was nothing there.

If he hadn't seen it filled with medicinal materials worth 50 taels, Yu Wenshan would have thought that his memory had made a mistake.

Ji Tong was also shocked, grabbed the sachet and tried to find it inside, and asked while flipping through it: "Where are the medicinal materials, where are the medicinal materials inside?!"

At this moment, there was a whimpering sound from behind, and the guard in charge of guarding Yijia had already burst into tears and sobbed softly.

Because he thought of one thing, he only felt strange, but he never settled down to think about it.

"My lord, young master, the frequency of going out to rescue people has decreased in the past two days, but he will always give some medicinal materials to those who are seriously ill and let them take it... What is amazing is that after eating, those who are seriously ill The man really got better, the subordinates thought that what the young master gave him was an experimental antidote...but..." The guard cried louder and louder, "Perhaps, it's the medicine in this sachet."

At this moment, the atmosphere in the room was as silent as death.

The last possibility disappeared.

Ji Tong clenched the sachet tightly, clenched his teeth tightly, and kept the tears from flowing out of his eyes.

But even though he tried his best to restrain himself, the emotions in his heart were already filled with sadness and annoyance.

Even when you are seriously ill, even when you are facing death... Do you still put the lives of the people first...

Little son...how are you so stupid...you are only a 16-year-old child, obviously, you don't have to bear all this...you can put yourself first, but you chose this way , this sad way of giving yourself...

In the end, he couldn't restrain his emotions, his legs and feet went limp, and he threw himself to Yijia's bed, crying bitterly.

Yu Wenshan listened to the crying in a daze, but his face was in a state of confusion. For a moment, he couldn't understand what he saw in reality, nor could he clear his messy brain.

Why did he just not see Yijia for a while, and the other party suddenly became critically ill?

Obviously, obviously the last time I saw him, he was still fine...

...Really, okay?

At this time, Yu Wenshan suddenly thought of a scene. When Yijia said this to him, he would cough twice from time to time. It's really uncomfortable.

So at that time, did the disease already show signs?

But he turned a deaf ear and didn't care about this small detail at all.

And Yi Jia also concealed his illness very well.

...It was his fault.

At this moment, Yu Wenshan understood the reason for the regret and guilt in his heart, because he couldn't blame anyone, and he, like those guards, was the chief culprit that caused Yijia to become sick from overwork...

He always wanted to protect Yijia and love Yijia, but in the end what did he do...he didn't do anything!

It's his fault, it's all his fault.

He clearly knew Yijia's aggressive character, and he knew that Yijia didn't rest in time. He knew everything, but nothing changed.

There seemed to be a big hole missing in the chest, and gurgling blood flowed out.

The pain erodes his nerves, making him so numb that he can no longer perceive the situation in the world.

Only tears welled up quietly.

In an instant, the entire side of the face was wet.

...is this a punishment?

Is this his punishment?

Then why let a child bear these, why not die by himself!

Before he came to Huaining, he had prepared for the worst, but the young master told him that he would never die with a miracle doctor by his side, and he was also assigned to help work in the area with the least degree of infection.

But if this meant that Yi Jia died instead of himself, he couldn't do it!

Anyone here can die, but Yi Jia cannot die.

Not because he is from the city that never sleeps...but because he saved thousands of people in this site, he is the savior of these people, how could he die after saving so many lives!

So... come alive, even if it's for them, you have to live.

"Young master, our agreement...has not been fulfilled yet. Wake up, wake up!" Yu Wenshan cried bitterly, venting his inner emotions without hiding.

For a while, only the crying of the crowd remained in the room, but suddenly, there was a loud noise from outside, which almost covered the crying in the room.

Everyone looked out the door at the same time, the guard wiped away his tears and ran to open the door, only to be stunned by what he saw.

The people standing outside turned out to be full of people. Looking around, there was a sea of ​​people, densely packed with heads.

And each of them looked sad and shouted into the room: "Young master! You can't die, young master. I haven't repaid you yet!"

It seemed that after hearing the news that Yi Jia was seriously ill, these people rushed over immediately, just to take a look at their beloved young master.

Although they wanted to enter the door to check on Yijia's condition, they restrained themselves because of their sickness. They just stood outside the door and shouted desperately:

"Young master, please wake up, young master!!"

"You are a miracle doctor, the miracle doctor must be able to wake up, right!"

"Young master, I haven't personally thanked you for saving my family yet, you must hear my thanks in person!!"

"Wake up quickly, young master, as long as you can wake up, I can do anything, please wake up."

"Little boy..."

"Young master...!!"

……

Calls from the heart came into the house one after another, full of worries and longings.

It was overwhelming, and it was coming with a turbulent wave.

Seeing so many people praying sincerely, Yu Wenshan's eyes lit up bit by bit.

He suddenly wiped away his tears quickly, walked to the head of the bed, and shouted at Yijia: "Young master, Yijia! Yijia——! Yijia!! Did you hear that, so many people are grateful for your kindness, I hope you can wake up, open your eyes quickly, Ika!!"

Following his call, the weak young man on the hospital bed really slowly opened his eyes——

Jiang Feng was thinking about a problem with a headache.

Even if his personality and thinking mode have changed after entering the vest, then he can't really play it off inadvertently.

It turned out to be fine now, and the vest of the doctor fell into a weak stage and was about to die.

He was about to die not long after he appeared on the stage, or because he died because of saving the people, Jiang Feng's heart was full of complications.

He is still the one who puts his own life first, and can even discriminate between good and evil, and use whatever means, but under the subtle influence of the vest, he does something that is very unlike his own means.

- Prioritizing the lives of others over your own.

Despite being affected by the good and evil value of the vest, it was absolutely impossible for Jiang Feng in the past to lose his life for some insignificant people. Even if all the people in Huaining are gone, it has nothing to do with him. Heart, it is impossible to take my own life!

...But all of this is obviously beyond his imagination.

He actually changed his mind unknowingly, and made a self-sacrifice that was impossible to imagine.

Jiang Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, and sighed helplessly. It seemed that walking around the world with a vest gave him emotions and warmth that he had never had before.

He has indeed changed.

Unable to deny his own changes, and pleased to welcome such a self, Jiang Feng sighed again, no longer obsessed with death.

Fortunately, Yijia's vest also helped a person in a county to heal his illness, and he completed the task of becoming famous in the city that never sleeps. It doesn't matter if he loses a vest, so let's give up.

He glanced at the reminder that the damage level of the Yijia vest card was 99%. This is the first time that the vest has been used by him in this way. I am afraid that returning to the vest will not take a cup of tea, and the contact will be completely severed. Alright.

Forget it, let's say goodbye to those people for the last time.

Jiang Feng smiled helplessly, and his consciousness was once again immersed in the cards.

Opening his eyes, Yijia heard a noisy voice in his ears. Due to his poor condition, he could barely open his eyes, but his vision was spinning, and even the figures were blurred.

It seemed that someone made a surprise sound and took his hand. Yi Jia carefully identified that the two people guarding the bed were Yu Wenshan and Ji Tong.

"Wake up! Wake up! Young master wake up!"

Seeing Yijia opened his eyes, Ji Tong shouted excitedly, "Has his condition improved? That's great!"

Yu Wenshan was almost weeping with joy, and there was life in his eyes, he hurriedly urged the guards: "Go and get all the medicinal ingredients, no matter what method you use, just get them together!"

But as soon as he finished saying this, he felt his palm being squeezed slightly, and turned his head quickly, only to see Yijia was looking at him weakly, shaking his head at him.

"No need..."

He spit out a few words hoarsely, and Yi Jia felt that speaking was more laborious than he had imagined.

He tried his best to suppress the uncomfortable feeling, and continued: "My body, myself... know best."

When he said these words, the smiles on the faces of Yu Wenshan and Ji Tong suddenly froze, and turned into panic.

And Yijia was still trying to smile at them, and said angrily: "Sorry, I lied to you... Long before I came here, I realized that there might be such a day... My sachet is gone... There is a way to unlock the toxin, so..."

"Stop talking!" Yu Wenshan suddenly stopped his words loudly, tears rolling down his cheeks, "Stop talking, you will be saved, we will get you the antidote!"

"Little son, you won't die, you can't die either, hold on!" Ji Tong also burst into tears.

Thinking of the threats from the previous seniors, Yijia couldn't help but shook his head and explained: "Don't... worry, this is my own idea... I don't regret it, and the seniors will understand me, so, so don't I'm afraid that the city that never sleeps will attack you... and I won't start a war with Da Wei, it's just a joke."

Just as he was talking, Yu Wenshan raised his head abruptly, staring at him with red eyes, and said mournfully, "How could we worry about that kind of thing!"

"What we are worried about is not about the city that never sleeps, but about you! Yijia!"

……

This sentence shot straight into Yijia's heart like pushing away the dark clouds.

Yijia was startled: "...Me?"

"Yijia, you can't die, I don't want you to die, and everyone present doesn't want you to die!"

Yu Wenshan's sonorous and forceful voice came over: "Did you hear the call from the people behind? That is their most sincere wish! You are their savior, you saved them and their relatives! You are full of gratitude, and they all like you, so they don't want you dead!"

"Me too, Ji Tong too, we are all people who have been saved by you, and we are all people who have been favored by you!"

"We haven't repaid our kindness to you, so you can't die!"

He pointed to the crowd outside: "Do you have the heart to leave these patients who are crying and suffering for you?"

He pointed to his chest again: "Do you have the heart to leave your dear friend behind?"

"If you die to treat them, this thorn will be stuck in their hearts forever, and they will always suffer from guilt, pain, regret and other emotions, which will never be resolved. You are so innocent and kind, can you really bear it!"

Having said this, Yu Wenshan choked up again. All he said started from Yijia's character, and set up words to cheer him up.

But he couldn't continue talking, all he wanted to say now was his truest heart.

"...I, from the first time I met, I thought you were a very cute child. You are innocent, cheerful, lively and interesting, curious about everything, and you will show obvious emotions at every turn... I have thought about it many times , if I have a younger brother, it might be your personality."

"Inviting you to the yamen, on the one hand, I want to protect you, and on the other hand, I want to have more contact with you personally."

"I admit that at the beginning, I might have thought that the title of the city that never sleeps was close to you... Very quickly, I fell in love with your character. What I fancy is not the city that never sleeps, but the real you. A man named Yi Jia's cute boy... Even if you are not from the city that never sleeps, even if you have no medical skills, I only like you."

"So please..." Holding the young man's slender and fragile hand on his forehead, Yu Wenshan sincerely prayed, "Survive, I promised to take you to see interesting places in Anqing, but this promise has not been fulfilled yet. , don't break your promise, please... don't... break your promise."

There was only a sound of crying in his ears, and Yi Jia lay on the bed a little hazy, every sentence of Yu Wenshan's heartfelt words was transmitted to his heart.

He suddenly felt warm in his heart, and some emotions gradually surged up, which made the tip of his nose a little sour.

Because, someone recognized him.

It is no longer a member of the city that never sleeps, but a member of an independent existence.

All he wanted was this.

"...Is that so." The corners of his lips could not help but curl slightly, those gentle eyes gradually closed, and only a transparent tear trail slipped from the corner of his eyes, "Thank you, I am so, so happy... ..."

The arm fell down feebly, no matter how terrified Yu Wenshan tried to grab it, he still couldn't keep the arm that hit the bed heavily.

The young man on the bed had a soft smile on his face, as if he was asleep and lifeless.

Yu Wenshan stared blankly at this scene, his body trembling violently.

"Ika! Ika!!"

"Ika——!!"

Countless cries erupted from inside the yamen, whether it was the people inside the house or the people outside the house who were looking forward to it, they all burst into tears at this moment, crying bitterly on the ground.

This cry seemed to disturb the heavens, and even the sky became gloomy, and raindrops as big as beans fell.

But still no one is willing to hide from the rain and leave. Their benefactor lost his life because of saving them, how could they leave!

Their benefactor was only 16 years old, he was still a child, but the final ending was such a tragedy, how could they not cry bitterly!

Despite the cold rain hitting their bodies, everyone stood upright, wiping their tears with their sleeves, and weeping sadly.

So no one noticed that a figure quickly walked into the yamen and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his cuff.

There were too many people gathered in front of the bedroom, so he had to fall on the roof and climb in through the window, glanced at the bed: "It's okay, it's okay, it's not too late, I'm really afraid that you have already been cremated."

"Who!" Even though he was sad, Yu Wenshan immediately looked at this unexpected guest vigilantly.

He doesn't even know how this person got in, which is enough to show that this person's martial arts are high.

But what came into view was a gorgeous face with outstanding facial features and a peachy face. If it weren't for the man's clothes, the movements would be very chic, so it would not be too much to be mistaken for a woman.

And he didn't seem to like being questioned about his identity very much, so he threw out a token from his waist almost without thinking: "Here, let's take a look first before asking questions."

Yu Wenshan took a closer look and was startled, because this is the token of the city that never sleeps!

Did the city that never sleeps send someone?

They knew about Ika.

When he understood the cause and effect, Yu Wenshan didn't feel any tension or fear in his heart, he just felt relieved and relaxed.

"I didn't take good care of the young master." He said calmly, "I am willing to bear all the consequences."

Could he finally go and keep Ika company?

"It seems that you know what I want to do here." Ji Wuxin narrowed her eyes, and sneered as if she was being held accountable, "I left it to you, and it only took a few days to become like this, it's really good Yes."

Yu Wenshan remained calm and silent, just waiting for Ji Wuxin's trial with his eyes downcast without saying a word.

When Ji Tong saw this, he also gritted his teeth and wiped away his tears, and stood up: "It was I who first agreed with Everbright City to take care of the young master, and now if something goes wrong, I will bear it alone!"

"No need." Yu Wenshan said calmly, "I have been taking care of the young master since he left the Nightless City, and it has nothing to do with you."

"What do you mean!" Ji Tong refused to admit defeat, "Obviously the young master and I met first, so what's the matter with you?"

"When I knew him..." Ji Tong suddenly flattened his mouth, wanting to cry again, "You, you haven't appeared yet!"

"You don't have to shirk your responsibility." Ji Wuxin crossed her arms and looked at them indifferently, "Everyone of you has a share."

Before Yu Wenshan could speak, Ji Wuxin suddenly uttered shocking words: "If I say that Yijia can still be saved, but I need your help, would you be willing?"

"Wh-what?!" Yu Wenshan and Ji Tong were shocked at the same time. At this moment, the eyes immediately burst into light, "Really? If we can save the young master, we will do whatever we want!"

"Don't talk too much." Ji Wuxin said casually, "If I say revive Yijia, the price will be your lives?"

"I am willing!"

Almost as soon as Ji Wuxin's words fell, Yu Wenshan and Ji Tong said them in unison.

They didn't seem to be entangled at all, and they didn't even put their own lives in their eyes. As long as Yijia could wake up, as long as Yijia could open his eyes again and smile at them lively, they were willing to do anything.

Ji Wuxin raised her eyebrows, she was well prepared, and they answered so quickly beyond his imagination.

Ji Wuxin, who originally wanted to have a little test before deciding whether to revive the vest, felt that things went extremely smoothly, so she started thinking again; "Even if the two of you agree, it's useless. If you want to gather a huge vitality to revive Yijia, you still have to do it." Needs to give more lives..."

"I can!" Before he could finish speaking, the guard who was kneeling beside him immediately stood up and replied hastily, "It's because I didn't supervise the young master well, I am willing to dedicate my life to him!"

"I can too!" The rest of the guards stood up one by one, "Young master saved Huaining County, you saved us, we are willing to give everything!"

Seeing that several guards stood up one after another, without any hesitation at all, Ji Wuxin fell silent again.

Is this really a test?

Why does it feel so inexplicably happy to agree.

"We are willing too!" Just as he was struggling, there was another shout from outside the door. After hearing Ji Wuxin's words, the people outside the house thought for a while, and then stepped forward one by one.

"I'm already an old bone, and it's useless to stay in this world. It's my honor to die to save Mr. En!"

"Me too. I have no relatives or a wife. I thought I would die like this. Since the young master saved me, I should give him my life back. Thank him for saving the people!"

"Me too! If it's enough, if it's not enough, I can give you my life!"

"We both would."

……

Countless people are shouting, there has never been such a concerted effort.

Hearing what they said, Ji Wuxin raised her forehead in frustration.

Forget it, there is nothing to test at all.

He was still hesitating whether to give such a precious resurrection pill to a vest, but after listening to Yu Wenshan's words and the words of all the people here, he had already confirmed his belief in his heart.

Since so many people love this vest, and since this vest appeared out of people's love, it should be preserved.

He left an indestructible mark in the heart of Jiang Feng's body, which made the body understand love and warmth.

This is something that Jiang Feng can't bring to him. Jiang Feng wants to cherish the love of these people.

Therefore, Ji Wuxin smiled helplessly, and finally took out a bottle of pills from her bosom.

"Your wishes, I do accept them!"
