When Chen Xian returned to the old liar's grocery store, he found that the hall was empty. Those seniors who came to report to the old liar had already left. As soon as he entered the door, Chen Xian saw the old liar facing away from Sitting in the hall eating a small hot pot, under the dim light, his thin and dry back also looked inexplicably lonely.
The pot used by the old liar to cook the hot pot is not big, similar to the slightly larger porcelain bowl in Chen Xian's house. There are no rare ingredients on the mottled old wooden table, and the meat and vegetables are placed in a not very particular enamel bowl. , there are only a dozen slices of cut luncheon meat in the bowl, one tael of greens and two taels of cabbage, and a few shiitake mushrooms cut from the middle are scattered in the gap.
In the eyes of outsiders, the old liar is a high-ranking lord of the Yin market, and a powerful existence that all abnormal beings in the country respect and follow... For an abnormal being like him who is at the peak, his life must be different from that of ordinary people. A meal should not be so simple and shabby without mentioning the delicacies of mountains and seas.
But the fact is that, what is the difference between an old liar and an ordinary old man, he will cook a few more dishes when there are people at home, and only himself when there are no guests, that is just a casual meal, because he doesn't care about it at all.
Hearing the sound of Chen Xian's footsteps walking into the shop, the old liar looked back, as if a real grandpa saw his grandson coming home, he instinctively expressed concern.
"Have you eaten at the branch office? If you haven't eaten, I'll get you some food!"
"It's okay, Master Ge, you can eat, I'm not hungry now."
Chen Xian really has no appetite. Of course, it may also be because in the previous battle... he was full. After all, the powerful and strange life form of Representative Jason is different from the previous food, and it is really difficult to eat it. Digestion, so when he went back to the sub-office before, he took out two boards of Jianweixiaoshi tablets to eat.
"Is it all over?" The old liar pulled out a small bench from under the table and handed it to Chen Xian.
Chen Xian took it, and sat at the table with the old liar, nodded and said, "I've finished my work."
"How is Xiao Lu?" The old liar asked a little worried. Although his relationship with Lu Yisheng is not very close, but with Chen Xian as an important factor in it, he will inevitably care more about Lu Yisheng After all, in his eyes, Chen Xian is almost like his own grandson... Friends who are close to his grandson, of course he should care about it.
"The medical team from the provincial branch has transferred here, and it's relatively timely. His injury has stabilized and he should be recovering slowly." Chen Xian smiled, with a rare light on his face, "His The injury is not serious, and the doctors at the provincial branch are quite capable of stabilizing him in a short period of time."
"Nonsense." The old liar laughed, "If you can't even rely on the doctors of your provincial branch, then you are still an ass in the Bureau of Secrets?"
After all, the old liar took out a piece of cooked luncheon meat from the pot, threw it into the dipping bowl and rolled it slowly a few times.
"Xu girl's injury... have you asked the secret guard?" The old liar asked without raising his head.
Chen Xian nodded and replied, "Yes."
"What do you say over there?" The old liar glanced at Chen Xian with a complicated expression.
"I can't figure it out." Chen Xian shook his head and sighed helplessly, "Our headquarters does have medicines that can regenerate severed limbs, but those medicines are not without any side effects, at least they can't meet my requirements..."
Hearing this, the old liar was both disappointed and satisfied.
Yes, he was quite pleased with the news.
Although it sounds a bit cold-blooded to say this, it is the truth.
He doesn't want to make people feel that he is inferior to the youngsters of the Bureau of Secrets, but at the same time, he doesn't want to take on this tricky job. It is true that he has the paranoid temper of an old urchin. All in all, he is very entangled now... because He could imagine how much trouble would be waiting for Xu Yanan once he "transplanted" that arm.
What's more, the safety of that arm is not particularly high. At this time, the old liar dare not guarantee that it will be installed without any problem. After all, it has a part of the ability to affect human mutations... The cases I have seen are all short-term , the longest time to be parasitized is only two months, what if it is allowed to be parasitized on Xu Yanan
One year or two years
Or is it like this for a lifetime
"How are they?" Chen Xian asked.
The old liar who was struggling looked up at him, then lowered his head to look at the hot dishes in the pot, and felt that the indescribable anxiety in his heart even made him lose his appetite.
"The kid from the Li family is sleeping, and Xiao Muhe and Xu Yatou seem to be still awake. When I went upstairs to deliver food to them, they were still laughing and chatting about something." The old liar said, looking a little unhappy .
"Then I'll go up and talk to them." Chen Xian sighed, glanced at the old liar, and said in a low voice, "Master Ge, if she really wants to... then she might have to trouble you."
The old liar smiled wryly and waved his hands. He didn't say anything, but he regretted telling about that arm. Although helping Chen Xian to save Xu Yanan was not a big deal, he didn't regret doing it at all, but... a severed limb transplant is a living thing. The risk is not small, and the rejection of body tissues is difficult to solve perfectly. It is not as simple as it is said to actually perform this operation.
Chen Xian didn't notice the old liar's tangled and anxious expression, so he went upstairs to find Mu He and the others while yawning.
Sure enough, everything was as the old liar said...
As soon as he opened the door of the room, Chen Xian heard Xu Yanan chatting with Xiao Muhe.
"I knew you had watched that TV series too!" Xu Yanan's tone was full of joy, as excited as if he had found a comrade working underground.
"Hee hee, I've seen quite a few." Mu He said proudly.
"Is that heroine stupid!" Xu Yanan chatted enthusiastically.
"Yeah, I almost died of anger when I watched it, and the male lead is so annoying!"
Mu He has watched the TV series Xu Yanan mentioned, and seems to agree with Xu Yanan's point of view. After all, her three views are almost the same as Xu Yanan's. If the three views are different, their relationship will not be so close.
"That's right! Let me tell you that the heroine is a brain twitch! If I were her, I would kill him if I found out that the hero is cheating!" Xu Yanan snorted.
"Yeah, I think so too!" Mu He agreed very much.
"Yes, yes! If I were the hostess, I would definitely not quarrel with him during the day, and when he is fast asleep in bed at night... I will chop off his dog's head with a knife!"
"Whose dog's head was chopped off?"
When Chen Xian opened the door and came in, he didn't seem to hear their conversation clearly, and the expression on his face was a little dazed, and he felt like he couldn't open his eyelids. It was the first time Xu Yanan saw Chen Xian's face... It was also at this time that they realized that Chen Xian was not an iron-clad superman, he would be tired and sleepy.
Walking to the side of the bed, Chen Xian pulled a chair over and sat down. He looked up at Xu Yanan and then at Mu He. He was relieved to see that both of them were in good spirits. After all, in his eyes, the two girls They were all wounded, especially Xu Yanan, the female version of Yang Guo, was seriously injured.
"How do you feel?" Chen Xian asked.
"Me?" Xu Yanan blinked, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "It's okay, the wound doesn't hurt so much anymore, the elixir that Grandpa Ge gave me is much better than our family's Guben elixir, and there is Pain relief…”
Chen Xian yawned and listened, and nodded absently, interrupting Xu Yanan's words.
"Your hand has fallen."
When he said this, Chen Xian's eyes lit up a little.
Perhaps it was because of the dim desk lamp, his black and white eyes looked like a pair of cat's eyes at the moment, and there was a little bit of caution in his calm expression.
"Are you settled?" Xu Yanan's eyes lit up, but he was not as excited as Chen Xian imagined.
It seems that she wasn't worried that she would become disabled from the very beginning, after all, Chen Xian had promised her...
With him here, nothing will happen.
Like Mu He, Xu Yanan trusted Chen Xian unconditionally, so he just felt a little pleasantly surprised at the moment, but not overjoyed, it was as if he had been mentally prepared.
"At present, we have several plans, and each plan has risks and side effects. I can't make decisions for you, so I want to talk to you... let you choose."
side effect
defect
Xu Yanan blinked her eyes, with a trace of doubt on her face, she just nodded without asking further questions.
"Muhe, go downstairs and watch TV first, I'll talk to your sister Yanan."
"it is good… "
