When cousin Lin Shuang's parents passed away, she was adopted by Lin Man's parents and became the family's darling.
Lin Man, on the other hand, became the sandwiched punching bag,...
Chapter 536: Surgery (Page 1/2)
Although everyone was so relieved, Xiao Ya's heart was still shrouded in fear.
She clutched the bed sheet tightly, her face was as pale as paper, and even beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
When she thought about being pushed into that cold operating room and facing unknown risks, her heart couldn't help but tremble.
Lin Man was keenly aware of her mother-in-law's fear. She knew that no matter how many words she said, it would not be able to truly eliminate the uneasiness in her mother-in-law's heart.
So, she suddenly had an idea and tried to change the subject: "Mom, after I send you to the operating room, I plan to go to the supply and marketing cooperative. I'll buy you whatever you want to eat."
Hearing this, Xiao Ya nodded slightly, but the panic in her eyes did not diminish in the slightest.
"I had surgery last night and can't eat today. Just buy whatever they want."
Not long after, medical staff came over and asked Xiao Ya a few questions. After learning that she had not eaten anything or drunk any water in the morning, they asked her to wait at the door of the operating room.
Huo Qingci and others escorted her all the way to the door of the operating room. Looking at her mother-in-law's figure gradually disappearing, Lin Man silently prayed in her heart that everything would go well.
After her mother-in-law entered the operating room, Lin Man turned and left the hospital, walking towards the supply and marketing cooperative not far away.
Although she was in a heavy mood, she still forced herself to pick various fresh vegetables.
After buying vegetables, Lin Man carried the heavy bag home. When she got home, she saw that it was not yet nine o'clock.
So she put down what she was doing, as she didn't have any housework to do for the time being.
After hesitating for a moment, she decided to enter the space and continue studying the green-skinned stone she had discovered before.
The green stone lay quietly in the corner. When Lin Man activated his supernatural powers, it emitted a strange light.
Lin Man slowly squatted down and looked at it carefully, her heart filled with curiosity and confusion... She studied it for a long time but still couldn't figure out what kind of stone it was, so she took it to show the robot Xiaozhi.
"Xiaozhi, can you help me see what kind of stone this is?"
Xiaozhi picked up the mysterious stone in Lin Man's hand and gently swept it.
After a moment, it frowned and said, "Master, unfortunately, my scanner can only detect the external structure of this stone. As for the internal situation, it is completely unable to scan it."
Then, Xiaozhi's eyes flashed with excitement, and he continued, "But you mentioned before that you can use supernatural powers to activate it. This shows that it is definitely a stone that contains huge energy!
But... it seems to be a little different from the common energy stones we have seen in the apocalypse.
I'm not sure what it is yet. Perhaps you could consider cutting it open with a cutting machine and see."
Hearing Xiaozhi's suggestion, Lin Man shook her head helplessly and sighed, "Alas, I tried to cut it with a cutter a long time ago, but it turned out that it was impossible to cut it. This stone is simply indestructible!"
Xiaozhi thought about it for a while, then suddenly an idea struck him, and he suggested: "Master, since conventional methods don't work, why don't you try dripping blood on it?
There might be unexpected results! After all, this seemingly strange stone might not even be from our Blue Planet."
Lin Man's eyes widened as she stared at Xiaozhi in disbelief. She couldn't help but laugh, "Dripping blood? Xiaozhi, you idiot, do you have too many fantasy novels stored on your main card? Why do you always come up with such weird ideas?"
Although she said this, she felt in her heart that there was something strange about the stone.

After some thought, she finally made up her mind to try it with a drop of blood. She hurriedly found a long, thin needle.
After taking a deep breath, she aimed the needle at the tip of her slender index finger and inserted it without hesitation. A sharp pain instantly hit her, causing her to frown.
She quickly put down the needle and squeezed the place where the needle had just pierced her with her other hand.
After several attempts, a few drops of bright red blood finally seeped out slowly.
Lin Man carefully smeared the blood beads on the surface of the stone, staring at it without blinking, hoping for a miracle to happen.
At this moment, there were a few crisp "crackling" sounds, and the originally intact stone suddenly broke into several pieces!
And among the gravel, a green light suddenly lit up, and then a round, smooth, green bead emitting an attractive luster shot out from it like a meteor and flew out of the villa.
At the same time, the entire villa shook violently, making bursts of roaring sounds.
Lin Man only felt that her feet seemed to be suddenly pulled away by an invisible force, and her body fell forward involuntarily.
With a dull thud, she fell heavily onto the cold, hard floor.
Lin Man widened her eyes in horror. Her originally clear and beautiful eyes were now filled with fear. For a moment, she had no idea how to deal with this sudden situation and her mind went blank.
Could it be... could it be that this space is about to collapse?
Lin Man was considering whether to leave the space. Just when she was panicking, suddenly, a sharp pain came without warning. Her eyes went dark, and she completely lost consciousness and fainted on the ground.
I don’t know how long it took, but when Lin Man slowly opened her eyes, she gently shook her heavy head, trying to wake herself up.
A faint scent of grass and trees wafted into her nose. This fresh and pleasant scent made her feel particularly comfortable and relaxed.
Lin Man quickly got up from the ground. She didn't bother to tidy up her messy hair and clothes, and rushed to the villa gate impatiently. The scene in front of her made her stunned.
The entire space seemed to be cast under a spell. There was a large green lawn around the villa, and the lawn was full of colorful flowers.
His eyes slowly moved towards the warehouse in the distance. As far as his sight could see, countless towering trees appeared around them out of thin air as if by magic.
The tender green grass on the ground was like a soft velvet carpet, quietly and silently covering every inch of land around the space.
Lin Man, who had been standing quietly in the same place, looked into the distance. There was a vast white fog in the distance, making everything in his vision blurry.
A strong curiosity burned in Lin Man's heart, driving her to take a step forward involuntarily. She had only taken a few steps.
The voice of the robot Xiaozhi sounded in his ears, "Master, it's getting late."
Lin Man quickly raised her right hand, looked at the watch on her wrist, and exclaimed, "Oh no! It's too late."
She just flashed and disappeared from the spot as fast as lightning.
After Lin Man came out of the space, she ran to the next door in a hurry.
I knocked on the door and found that my grandfather and sister-in-law had not come back. The tense string in my heart finally relaxed a little and I breathed a long sigh of relief.
She checked her watch again; there were only forty minutes left before the kids got home from school!
Lin Man decided to speed up the cooking process so as not to let the children wait too long.
