Chapter 422 Discrimination

"I know my own body best. It's just been drenched by acid rain. The abscess will heal slowly. Why should I stay in the hospital? Get out of the way!"

"Hey, you're not done yet, are you? I'm warning you one last time. If you don't behave, I'll arrange for anesthesia. I'll discharge you from the hospital when you feel better without the injection!"

The patients and nurses in the corridor stared without uttering a word, watching the tense situation inside and praising Dr. Sang for his dominance.

Xia Yan raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that Dr. Sang was so good at arguing with people.

The young nurse next to her pouted in anger, and looked at Xia Yan who was trying hard to suppress her silent curse: I have never seen such a person, and saving him turned out to be a mistake.

Anyway, you don't need to spend crystal cores, and you are provided with three meals a day, so just stay here and leave when you feel better. Why be so useless and willful?

It can't be... to save food rations for their hospital, right?

The young nurse looked confused.

Xia Yan found her expression funny (in a good way), patted her shoulder, and walked into the ward.

Coincidentally, the patient in the room, who was wrapped in bandages like a dumpling, jumped off the bed in a rage, and the only exposed eye kept spewing out anger.

"Why? You're stronger—"

"What do you want to do?" Xia Yan looked at him coldly.

Doctor Sang turned around and said, "You're finally here. I couldn't persuade this person at all. He insisted on leaving!"

"Since he wants to leave, then let him go. If he doesn't cherish his own life, who else can he expect to treasure it?" Xia Yan glanced at the 'zongzi' lying on the hospital bed without any hesitation. "Anyone who wants to be discharged, I will send you back now. Don't ever come to my place to ask for help again."

Dr. Sang was dumbfounded and looked at the nurse at the door: I asked you to ask her to stop the fight, but why does it feel like she's here to start a fight?

"I didn't make a fuss either."

Hearing the soft, fiery voice, Dr. Sang turned back in shock. Was this the same patient who had nearly come into a fight with him?!

She spoke softly, how could she be rude or unconvinced at all?

Xia Yan snorted coldly, "I heard some loud shouting in the corridor just now, wasn't it you?"

She walked to the end of the bed, where the patient's basic information was usually posted, and saw Zhang Yaya, male, 26...

"You're only 26?" Xia Yan couldn't help but raise his voice.

The shock of age is far greater than that of the name.

Just by listening to his rough and hoarse voice, it is easy to mistake him for a middle-aged man. After all, you can't see his face and can only recognize him by his voice.

Zhang Yaya turned her head with difficulty to avoid her eyes. The uneasiness and anxiety that had filled her heart gradually subsided when she saw someone who could be considered an acquaintance.

Xia Yan finally understood. He was just panic-stricken and scared because he suddenly arrived in a strange place. His companions seemed to be unable to speak, and their lives and fortunes were all depending on him.

But he had such a huge tumor hanging around his neck, and he could hardly protect himself, not to mention he had to take care of and protect his companions. You can imagine the pressure in his heart.

In just a short while, Xia Yan didn't see them look at others for more than five seconds.

"Lie back down," Xia Yan said, moving a wooden stool over and sitting beside the bed. "Didn't I tell you last time? There's a hospital in the base. Do you think there are other free hospitals somewhere else that can provide you with medical treatment?"

Zhang Yaya's "one eye" swept across the open ward door and saw a long line outside, waiting for Dr. Sang to see them.

A strange feeling arose in his heart, so complicated that he couldn't describe it. It was as if a thin and withered gentian flower had grown in a ravine-like land full of sin and despair. It was both beautiful and weird.

Seeing that he was distracted, Xia Yan asked, "Are you still planning to go back?"

Zhang Yaya hummed glumly, "I have to go back. The food is still in the cave and I haven't had time to take it away. I'm afraid it will be corroded by the acid rain."

The stone cave can protect against wind, fire, and those strange "hands", but it cannot protect against rain. Water flows into the cave through the cracks and accumulates deeper and deeper. How can a thin layer of plastic packaging withstand it?

How can a person who has tasted hunger tolerate the food not entering his stomach but being spoiled?

Thinking of this, he became even more restless.

Xia Yan waved his hand slowly, "You won't be able to do anything if you go back in this state. You should have applied for a points card, right?"

"have."

"We've added a new feature where anyone can post or accept tasks. You can set your own compensation, and I only charge a 20% commission. You can give it a try. I'll ensure transaction security."

Zhang Yaya was skeptical and didn't understand how those people could get to the stone tablet without a guide.

With Xia Yan's face full of confidence, he raised his Doraemon-like round hand and poked the gauze wrapped around his arm - the points card was underneath.

Can it be opened like this?

Zhang Yaya was very confused, but the next second, the small interface of the points card jumped out of the gauze and floated in the air.

"It's really amazing." He glanced at Xia Yan and exclaimed, gesturing with his round hands, not knowing how to touch the small words at the bottom of the interface. But as his hands got closer and closer, the interface became larger and larger, almost catching up with the projection screen.

If this doesn't light up, there's no way to tell.

Xia Yan noticed that Zhang Yaya's eyes were squinting, and the only exposed right eye was almost moved to the end of the eye, so her hand could only press the keys accurately.

She pondered, could it be that the reason she always felt he was peeking at her from under his burqa was actually because he was looking sideways?

Thinking of this, she looked at his companions again. Their eyes were indeed locked on Zhang Yaya, but it felt like they were looking at her...

Xia Yan stood up and moved, and found that their eyeballs moved slightly.

This is absolutely amazing!

"bite."

Zhang Yaya clicked on the new message and said, "Yes, someone accepted the task I posted!"

Then he looked at the wooden bench and said, "Boss, do I have to send him off next?"

Xia Yan resisted the urge to hold his forehead. "No need. As long as the recipient wants to do the task, they can open the portal to the task point online at any time. After the other party completes the task, you can get the supplies. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Just as she reached the door of the ward, Zhang Yaya said hesitantly in a hoarse voice, "Boss Xia, if I hadn't mentioned in the mission that the fruit was poisonous and that we couldn't just grab it with our hands, they would have known the danger just by looking at the outside, right?"

Xia Yan:?

"You mean the glowing fruit? What's the poison?"

"Maybe... I'll shout a few times..."

"Shouting twice is considered poisoning? This is the first time I've heard of this. Don't worry about it. The people who receive the mission will be able to tell for themselves."

Looking at Xia Yan's departing back, Zhang Yaya concealed her panic and prayed that the man would not be deceived by Yuan Guozi's appearance.

night.

Everyone in the base heard a heart-wrenching scream of pain.

"There's a thorn in my hand! Doctor! Help me! It's digging into my flesh and it hurts so much! Which bastard gave me this mission without clearly stating it? If I find you, I'll skin you alive!"

Zhang Yaya turned over silently, pulled the quilt up around her body, and closed her eyes.
