Lin Zhan choked, “…”

He looked at Lu Lingxiao speechlessly. This kid had been gone for a few months, and when he came back, his mouth was still so sharp.

Lin Zhan glared at him, then got down to business, "The commander and I have heard about your proposal to form a special forces unit. How is it going? Has it been implemented at the local level?"

Lu Lingxiao said softly, "More or less. A couple of days ago, the commander and I went to the South Province to investigate. The terrain and location are quite good, and it is very suitable to be used as a training base for special forces. But the final decision still depends on the leaders' meeting."

He's done everything he was supposed to do; the rest is up to the leaders.

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhan pondered for a moment before asking, "So, once it's confirmed, are you going to be transferred?"

To be honest, he really couldn't bear to let Lu Lingxiao leave the Jincheng Military Region. After all, the kid's abilities were obvious to all, and with him in Jincheng, the atmosphere and spirit of their military region were different.

However, as reluctant as I am to part with it.

We can't keep Lu Lingxiao stuck in the Jincheng Military Region and prevent him from getting promoted just because of his personal interests. Besides, with Lu Lingxiao's abilities, it's only a matter of time before he's transferred out of the Jincheng Military Region.

"It's not clear yet. Anyway, I'll follow the leader's orders." Lu Lingxiao's eyes darkened slightly. He could see the reluctance in Commander Lin's words when he asked him, so he said something without much reluctance.

In fact, when he returned to Jincheng, his godfather had already given him a very clear answer: in the first half of next year, he would be transferred from the Jincheng Military Region to take up a post in the new military region.

However, this matter is currently kept confidential.

Lin Zhan glanced at him and sighed, "Actually, even if you hadn't said anything, Commander Jiang and I had pretty much guessed it. Your transfer was inevitable because of your abilities."

"When you were assigned to the Jincheng Military Region, the first time I saw you, I knew that you were definitely a good candidate to be a leader."

Lin Zhan smiled with relief, and before Lu Lingxiao could reply, he continued, "To be honest, I really don't want to let you go, but I can't be so selfish. A strong person like you shouldn't be trapped in Jincheng."

"However, if you really get transferred away, you'd better come back to visit us at the Jincheng Military Region often. If you dare to forget about us, then when I see you, I'll definitely give you a good beating."

"Don't worry, I won't give you that chance!" Lu Lingxiao raised an eyebrow, a slight smile curving his lips.

"That would be for the best, otherwise, hmph..."

Lin Zhan deliberately let out a heavy hum at the end of his sentence and then fell silent. The office fell silent for a moment, as if everyone was lost in their memories, and no one spoke.

Finally, Lu Lingxiao spoke first, "What's the situation in Nanjiang now? Have the missing people been found?"

When this matter was mentioned, Lin Zhan's expression immediately darkened. "We don't know yet. Let's wait and see. We'll only know the specifics once the second team arrives in Nanjiang and sends back the intelligence."

"Currently, the first team has confirmed that seven people are missing and five are seriously injured. They fell into a coma after returning to their unit."

After a pause, he continued, "The remaining six are slightly less injured, but their situation is not very optimistic. Even Dean Cheng feels helpless and doesn't know where to start."

This is the most troublesome thing.

Although the eleven men returned, their conditions were all more serious than the last. According to Dean Cheng, if the unconscious soldiers did not wake up soon, they might never wake up again.

"I'll take my wife to the hospital to check on them later." Lu Lingxiao had already guessed the general idea. There was only one reason why those soldiers couldn't wake up: they had been poisoned by a Gu poison.

"Does your wife know medicine?"

Lin Zhan was extremely surprised.

It should be noted that Feng Zhiyi made a great contribution during this trip abroad, and was awarded a first-class merit personally approved by the old leader. Lu Lingxiao was also awarded a first-class merit, which is the second time Lu Lingxiao has been awarded a first-class merit.

At the same time, Feng Zhiyi was also named the most beautiful military spouse in the country.

I never expected that Feng Zhiyi would also know medicine.

Lu Lingxiao couldn't help but roll his eyes at him, saying coldly, "You're overthinking it. My wife has never been exposed to any medical knowledge, how could she possibly understand medicine?"

With a snap—

The glimmer of hope that had just been ignited was instantly extinguished.

Lin Zhan looked at him speechlessly. If he didn't know any medicine, what was the point of taking his wife to the hospital? He couldn't help her, and going there would only add to her sadness.

However, Lu Lingxiao calmly said, "My wife doesn't know medicine, but she does know some Gu poison techniques. Perhaps she can be of help."

"You mean..."

Lin Zhan was so excited that he stood up from his chair.

"Let's go, let's go quickly. We'll go to your house now to get your wife and then rush to the hospital."

What are you waiting for?

Human life is at stake; every moment of delay increases the danger.

So Lin Zhan didn't want to wait even a second longer, and he immediately called Lu Lingxiao and headed towards the family compound.

On the way, they ran into Political Commissar Zheng Jianguo and Commander Jiang Fengyi, and the group headed towards the Lu family's courtyard.

When they arrived at the courtyard, Commander Lin's wife, Yu Huixue, was also visiting the Lu family.

Yu Huixue is a gentle and virtuous woman with a very easygoing personality. She and Feng Zhiyi get along very well, and they started chatting and laughing together just a few minutes after they met.

As they were chatting, Feng Zhiyi suddenly heard hurried footsteps. She instinctively looked towards the door and saw several people outside. She was surprised for a moment, then stood up.

"Commander Jiang, Political Commissar Zheng, Division Commander Lin, please come in and have a seat!"

As Feng Zhiyi spoke, she reached for a few clean cups, picked up the teapot, and prepared to brew tea and pour water, but at that moment she heard Commander Lin say something.

"Comrade Zhiyi, stop what you're doing, we're here, we need your help with something urgent."

"help?"

Feng Zhiyi paused in her actions, looked up at Lin Zhan, and asked, "Commander Lin, what do you need me to do?"

"Put your things down and come with us. I'll explain everything to you on the way," Lin Zhan urged anxiously.

Feng Zhiyi looked at Lu Lingxiao.

Lu Lingxiao explained, "Honey, the situation of the first group of team members after returning to the unit is not optimistic. Several of them have been unconscious. I suspect they have been poisoned by a Gu."

Feng Zhiyi understood.

"Wait two minutes, I'll go back to my room to get the silver needles."

After saying that, he turned and went back to the master bedroom.

A short while later, Feng Zhiyi returned to the living room with a small medical kit. She looked at Grandma Feng and said, "Grandma, I'm going out for a bit. Please tell Ziheng and the others when they come back."

Grandma Feng mumbled a reply, "Okay, go ahead..."
