The next day, Lin Tan Tan went to see the mixed-race young man again. Oh, his name was Ruther, a very exotic name.
Ruther was fed stomach after stomach of sugarcane juice, and his body was emitting a strong smell of sugar. He recovered a little, but Lin Tan was worried that he would get diabetes.
Lin Tantan came here today mainly to help Lu Jianping pick out ingredients that meet the requirements. This square-faced uncle with sparse hair looked helpless and said, "The sugarcane field was destroyed, and we only got back a few stalks of sugarcane. Can you see if there are any wood-related superpowers? The research institute has been working on the instrument for testing superpowers for many days and still hasn't developed it. I'm really sorry to bother you."
Lin Tantan picked out the sugar canes and found only one with wood-related abilities. The others were just ordinary mutant sugar canes. As she picked, she asked, "Who destroyed the sugar cane field?"
"I don't know who it is. They say it only has half a head. It might be a zombie. Are there zombies that eat sugarcane?" Lu Jianping said in a somewhat funny tone. He seemed to be a very easy-going person in private, but Lin Tan Tan was not sure whether he deliberately showed this easy-going attitude in front of her.
Lin Tan was stunned. Zombies only eat raw flesh and blood, right? I have never heard of zombies that like to chew sugar cane.
"Did you see it wrong?"
"Maybe."
Fortunately, the sugarcane field was destroyed, and someone discovered a field of water chestnuts. They dug out several mutant water chestnuts, one of which had water-related abilities. When they mashed it into juice and gave it to Ruther to drink, it also had a very good effect.
Lin Tan Tan turned around and told Ye Xiao about this: "I didn't expect Lu Jianping to cherish the lives of his men so much. The three mutant plants with superpowers must have cost a lot."
Ye Xiao was a little absent-minded. She glanced at him. At this moment, she was transferring energy to Ye Xiao to promote the growth of his ribs. It was the first time she saw him distracted during the treatment.
Ye Xiao came back to his senses: "You mean, a person with only half a head?"
"Yeah, do you know such a person, or have you seen such a zombie?"
Ye Xiao didn't say anything, but he suddenly thought of someone, and then he denied it. That person must have been dead, and even if he was bitten by zombies again after death, he could not turn into a zombie.
But he still felt a little concerned in his heart, and he suppressed this worry calmly, and said to Lin Tantan: "Luther is Lu Jianping's adopted child, of course he cares about him."
"Ah, so that's how it is."
"It is said that this was the product of an affair between an old friend of his and his friend abroad. Later, his old friend passed away unexpectedly. Lu Jianping couldn't bear to see his friend be childless, so he went abroad himself after learning about this. After many twists and turns, he finally found the person in an orphanage, and it took quite a lot of trouble to bring the person back."
"Then Lu Jianping really cares about it. He can raise his friend's child as his own."
Ye Xiao's expression froze slightly, then returned to normal and was not noticed by Lin Tan.
After Ye Xiao's injuries recovered, he left the base again and began to look for a target with only half a head. Before he found the target, he discovered several corpses one after another.
Without exception, these corpses died at the hands of fire-type mutants. There were no signs of fighting on their bodies, only a charred hole on their chests. Their eyes remained confused even after death.
The injuries looked so familiar. Ye Xiao stood up from the latest corpse and looked at the ruins of the city under the sun with a very grim expression.
Zhou Yan was not dead. Regardless of why he was alive even after having half his head chopped off, his method of killing was to vent his anger? To announce something? Or was he practicing
The people who died first were just ordinary people who were left alone, but the ones who died later were people with special powers. This time there were two people with special powers. How could he make two people distracted at the same time
Lin Tantan knew nothing about this at the time. She still went to the shantytown, but only half a day. After a few days, she only went there for two or three hours.
The number of influenza patients has been decreasing day by day, and because mutated animals have entered people's diet, it can be clearly seen that more people are eating meat these days. Even if the meat of mutated animals does not have special powers, it is more nutritious. Some people are still sick, but they may recover slowly after eating it for a few days.
The free clinics are slowly being withdrawn.
Lin Tantan's clinic is still overcrowded, and this is also because of the mutated food.
Some people are very unlucky and have no way to detect it, so they eat something poisonous. Some people are too weak to be nourished. Some people eat mutant meat that is too hard and have indigestion. Some people are allergic. A large number of people are injured in fights with mutant animals.
In short, doctors never have to worry about having no business at any time.
However, because the patient group changed type, many wood-type mutants were unable to adapt for a while, and the treatment efficiency was particularly low.
Lin Tantan spent some time sorting out some cases, and then called a meeting of wood-type mutants upstairs in the clinic.
"… Using supernatural powers to treat patients is actually the same as using ordinary doctors to treat patients. First, you need to detect the lesion, and then use limited supernatural powers to treat the lesion. In the previous flu patients, the lesions were mainly in the respiratory system, but this time the focus is on the digestive system. Some toxins are absorbed into the blood and invade the whole body, so you need to spread your energy throughout the patient's body…"
"Here are some of the more typical patients I have compiled, including my ideas and steps for treating them. Take a look." Lin Tantan's explanation was relatively simple. After the photocopied materials were passed around, she said to Mingze who was sitting next to her, "Tell them later how to judge whether the patient has indigestion or food poisoning based on his or her main complaint. You are quite good at this."
"Yes." Mingze answered straightforwardly. He has now become Lin Tantan's assistant and apprentice. In medicine, as a professional doctor, he knows more than Lin Tantan, but when it comes to the use of supernatural powers, he still has a lot to learn from her.
In fact, he is already quite good. He can infer how to start based on the patient's main complaint. Most people with wood-type abilities had nothing to do with the medical field before. When facing a patient who says he has a stuffy nose, they use their abilities on the nose. If he says he wants to vomit, they treat his stomach. If he is a person with a talent for being sensitive to abilities, then it is still easy, but most people are relatively dull, and it is difficult to make effective treatments at the beginning.
The same was true when dealing with influenza patients. Lin Tantan recorded many typical cases and held several meetings with them during break time before he trained this group of wood-type mutants to be able to stand on their own.
"If you still don't understand, you can come and ask me." Lin Tantan was about to leave the simple meeting room when someone suddenly raised his hand and said, "Doctor Lin, can I join you?"
Lin Tantan stopped and looked at the young man who stood up. The young man wore gold-rimmed glasses and looked less than 30 years old. When he smiled, he had a delicate and elegant temperament, which easily made people like him.
Lin Tantan had some impression of him. He was a permanent staff member of the free clinic and had good abilities. He could earn a lot of food from her every day. He was also a doctor before the end of the world and seemed to be in the same hospital as Mingze.
She went to look at Mingze, and sure enough, the latter's face had turned black.
The young man with glasses asked again, "Can I join your team? I promise to be loyal and will not have any other thoughts. I will obey all your arrangements."
The "your team" he mentioned was the people who would become part of the team led by Ye Xiao. In this not-so-big conference room, there was a long table. Those who could sit at the table were "our own people" whose identities and character abilities had been repeatedly confirmed by Bai Cheng. Only more than ten people had been gathered in these few days. The rest were hired to earn a salary under Lin Tantan, and could only bring their own stools to sit around, or stand directly.
Lin Tan Tan said before that if they didn't understand something, they could come and ask her, and everyone also assumed that only their own people could disturb her. You, a hired worker who doesn't know what faction you belong to, should not expect too much. Lin Tan Tan was willing to take them along when teaching them the skills of using superpowers and didn't charge them tuition. You should be happy about that.
Lin Tan Tan said: "I don't care about this kind of thing, you can go talk to Bai Cheng."
"Okay, I understand." The young man said with a smile, not discouraged at all.
Mingze glanced at him and said to Lin Tantan, "Ms. Lin, go and do your thing. I'll take care of this."
"Okay." Lin Tantan walked out of the conference room. As soon as the door closed, he heard Mingze's voice, which had become two degrees colder, "Now I'll tell you about some of the main symptoms and manifestations of the digestive system..."
Well, Mingze is good in every way, except that he is a little too aloof.
There was a movement in her pocket, and a small chestnut hamster climbed out of her pocket and stood on her shoulder. She tilted her head and rubbed her face against the little bodyguard. Suddenly, she felt a strong gaze directed at her. She turned her head and saw a man squatting on the ground teasing a fat and stupid gray rat. Both the man and the rat looked over. The man's eyes were calm, but the gray rat seemed to have a face full of resentment and was about to crawl over.
Lin Tan Tan said quickly: "You can't, you are too heavy, don't jump on me!"
Big Gray paused, glared at the little hamster that was holding on to Lin Tan's shoulder, then twisted his fat body and crawled away, going down the stairs, dragging his long tail behind him, looking very lost.
Lin Tantan had no time to comfort this big guy who had been in a bad mood every day since she brought the hamster with her. She looked at the person who was still squatting on the ground and asked, "Why are you here?" She looked at the time and it was indeed lunch time.
Ye Xiao stood up, and his slender figure was immediately revealed. Lin Tantan went from looking down at him to looking up at him. He smiled and said, "Come and see you."
It was still cold in March, but Ye Xiao had already taken off his winter clothes and was only wearing two or three thin pieces, although his winter clothes were not very thick.
In short, this clothes perfectly shows off his good figure. Lin Tantan couldn't help but glance at his chest. Well, it was very symmetrical, firm and full, but it was probably still padded.
“…” Ye Xiao was helpless. What did this look mean
"Is the meeting over?"
"Yeah, let's go downstairs."
The clinic lobby is downstairs. Although it is lunch time, there are still quite a few people in the lobby. When they saw a huge rat crawling down, most of them were shocked and scared and moved aside. Some people were used to it and knew that this mutant rat was raised by Lin Tantan.
At the stairs, a young man was leaning against the wall with a sword in his arms. He stood up straight when he saw the two people coming down.
Lin Tantan was a little surprised: "Xu Li? You're here too?"
Ye Xiao said: "Let's talk in the consulting room."
After entering Lin Tantan's clinic, he said, "Let Xu Li follow you from now on."
"Ah? What?" Lin Tan Tan was very surprised. Although Ye Xiao said that he would replace her with a few bodyguards, it was not because the psychic looked down on him, but because he felt that the psychic Jiang Zhongyi was not steady enough. After looking for other people, he felt that none of them could be fully trusted, and maybe when they encountered danger, their superpowers would not be half as strong as hers.
It hasn't been decided yet, but Xu Li's words were still too unexpected.
Ye Xiao also had his own considerations: although Xu Li did not have superpowers, he was stronger than the average superpower user, but because he did not have superpowers, he had to attack at close range, and it was too risky to fight against zombies. Now that the manpower was gradually sufficient, he did not want Xu Li to go out of the base to take risks, but if he was left in the base, this person was too introverted and did not like to interact with people at all. If he was not given some tasks to do, he would sit in a corner and be in a daze until the end of time.
So it’s just right to talk about protecting Lin.
He was still hesitant before, but when he learned that Zhou Yan was still alive and his abilities were getting stronger, he finally made the decision. Although Xu Li obeyed everything and seemed to have a soft personality, because he had practiced martial arts since he was a child, his mind was very firm and almost nothing could shake him.
Lin Tan looked at Ye Xiaoyou and then at Xu Li: "What happened?"
Ye Xiao then told everyone about Zhou Yan, including how he had killed him once, but for some unknown reason the other party came back to life.
"He has dual powers? How is that possible? No, that's not the point. Are you saying you can't kill him? Are you sure he's really dead?"
"I cut off half of his head." Ye Xiao said.
Well, this should be a sure death, but if it is a sure death, how can he still survive? Lin Tantan sat on the chair, squeezing the little hamster in his hand. Could it be that because Zhou Yan is the future president and the most important person, he can't die because of his luck? Stop joking, okay
If he is still the president of New Century in the end, what will Ye Xiao do? If that guy takes the position, even if Ye Xiao is alive and well, he will definitely deal with Ye Xiao. In history, after Ye Xiao died, that guy would try every means to erase all traces of Ye Xiao's existence. That guy is a psychopath who cannot accept the existence of someone stronger than himself!
Seeing her reaction, Ye Xiao knew the principle behind Zhou Yan's special ability and why he could come back to life. She was completely unaware of this.
He said, "He is outside the base now. There are strict checks to enter the base. He should not be able to get in. Let Xu Li follow you just in case. Xu Li is determined and should not be easily affected by his supernatural power. I will give you a few more people. Don't have less than four people around you at any time."
Lin Tan nodded. She knew the importance of the situation. She just looked at Xu Li and couldn't help but ask, "Would it be a waste of Xu Li's talent to follow me?"
Xu Li gave her a shy smile: "No, this is what I am suited for."
Lin Tan said calmly, of course I know that you are good at protecting people, but the problem is that you are Bai Cheng’s personal bodyguard!
In history, Xu Li never awakened any special powers, but he has always been Bai Cheng's last and strongest protection force. Bai Cheng is the real manager of Zhengyang Base, and has a space that is said to be very, very large and has a lot of supplies, which is unknown to outsiders. He has always been the target of sniping by various forces. Xu Li protected him from many crises until the last time he died with him.
How come she is now the one being protected by this person? She doesn't think she can compare to Bai Cheng in terms of importance.
The author has something to say: Zhou Yan didn't die because he had three superpowers, not because of any halo. He was kept alive to promote the next plot and introduce several new characters. This was done in the outline. He will be offline soon.
