blood transfusion
Lin Zhouze was in the boundless darkness, feeling like a mayfly floating in the air. He knew Yan Zhiyuan was right beside him, very close to him, but he could neither hear nor touch him.
"I'm not hiding it from you on purpose, I just haven't figured out how to say it. Now that I've come here with you, I won't lie to you." Lin Zhouze was thinking about what stage the matter had reached, and tried to speak in a calm tone.
Yan Zhiyuan heard every word he said and felt the comfort in those words, but his entire brain was struck by a certain fact and refused to accept any external information -
He took possession of Lin Zhouze without his knowledge.
This is called infringement.
Yan Zhiyuan's whole body was terribly stiff and he had no feeling in his limbs.
If only it could feel cold here, he thought, maybe then he could numb himself to the biting cold, or simply die.
"I..." My throat seemed to be blocked by blood foam, and when I opened my mouth, only a strange syllable came out.
He was afraid.
Yan Zhiyuan felt like vomiting, and even more so, he wanted to cut himself into pieces. Hatred grew within him, even stronger than when he had been so clever and had caused Lin Zhouze to become a loser.
Then part of the blood in his body began to flow backwards, a paralyzing pain came from his heart, his vision became blurred, and his consciousness gradually withdrew. Soon, he lost control of his body, and his soul seemed to have wandered away, unable to move.
"I know you can hear me, Yan Zhiyuan, so listen carefully." Lin Zhouze's voice came up vaguely, echoing and unpleasant to the ear, but every word was as clear as if it had been carved with a knife or an axe.
Don't say it.
Don't say it.
I can't listen.
I don't want to listen.
Don't let me hear it.
Please...
But no matter how hard he begged, his body showed no response. He was like a lab rat on its last trial, lying on the line dividing light and dark, unable to move.
"If you're regretting your decision, it's indeed your own fault for being so self-righteous. I won't stop you, but I've also said before that I forgive you."
"As for the loss of all five senses, that happened before we returned here. It has nothing to do with the location or time. It will happen sooner or later."
Yan Zhiyuan never even wished he could sink to the bottom of the ocean. Every word Lin Zhouze spoke was like a needle, piercing his heart. If he could speak, he probably wouldn't be able to utter anything other than pleading.
"But there's only this one thing, this thing we're doing right now." Lin Zhouze's voice softened a bit, with a soothing, reassuring promise, "Even if it's not today, not here, I'm willing to do it."
Yan Zhiyuan's eyelashes trembled, and then slowly drooped down like fallen leaves in late autumn. He saw the person under him groping and reaching out his hand.
Swap up and down.
"There are things I've been waiting for you to say, but you're much more timid than before. I don't have that much time to wait any longer, so..." Lin Zhouze acted on his theoretical knowledge and instinct, "Hurry up! I don't want to fall in love with a vegetative person."
Yan Zhiyuan didn't wake up from his dream until noon the next day. The sheets beneath him were smooth and the scattered and messy clothes were neatly folded aside.
He reached out to touch it, and found it still had some warmth. "Aze!" Suddenly remembering what happened last night, he was about to jump out of bed to look for someone, but the door opened at that moment.
Seeing Lin Zhouze come in, Yan Zhiyuan immediately realized that something was wrong, but he was still eager to confirm: "Aze, you...we..."
"We did it." Lin Zhouze looked open-minded as he walked over and handed the clothes to the naked person on the bed.
Yan Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment, then he grabbed Lin Zhouze's wrist and carefully searched every expression on his face. After a while, he spoke: "Can you see and hear?"
The clothes were thrown to his chest. "Hurry up and put them on and come out. I'll wait for you outside." There was a subtle hint of anger in his tone. Yan Zhiyuan hurriedly put on his clothes and pants, not even having time to button them before he hurried out.
The terrace faces the endless glacier. Lin Zhouze was leaning against the railing, enjoying the breeze with his eyes closed. He did not turn back when he heard the noise.
"You remember what I said last night, right?"
Yan Zhiyuan paused, took a deep breath, walked over, and held Lin Zhouze's hand: "Remember." Lin Zhouze did not pull back, letting him rub his fingertips, "You activate the chip, we can't stay here for long."
"It's not a chip," Lin Zhouze said, then gently reversed his grip. This subtle movement caused a sudden surge of worry and fear in Yan Zhiyuan's heart, and then he realized something.
However, before he could ask, Lin Zhouze said in a very normal tone: "I awakened my supernatural power last night."
——
In the Mirage Abyss, Shi Youchen had just left He Xian when he received an emergency call from the outside world, which showed that it was Yan Zhiyuan.
"It's me, what's wrong?" His first reaction was that something had happened to the two people in the Far North Glacier Area, so he stopped.
"..." Yan Zhiyuan on the other end hesitated for a few seconds, then spoke urgently and awkwardly, "Youchen, there's something you must help me with."
Shi Youchen's heart sank. In his opinion, Yan Zhiyuan wasn't the type to be shy about asking a friend for help, especially since he was the one who suggested taking Lin Zhouze to the glacier area.
But now listening to the other party's tone, it is obvious that the so-called "something" is not an ordinary thing.
"What's up."
Sure enough, Yan Zhiyuan said more seriously, "Do you know what dissociation is? It's..." He sighed, "Anyway, A-Ze's condition is very bad right now. What I can detect includes but is not limited to anxiety, mental confusion, and intermittent amnesia."
"What happened?" Shi Youchen clenched his fingertips.
"I don't know... He left the glacier area once, and when he came back, things weren't right." Yan Zhiyuan's voice trembled noticeably. "We can't alert anyone else about this, especially Yun Gui. But I've figured out a solution."
"What do you want me to do?" Shi Youchen said as he raised his foot and walked towards the transmission area, but stopped after hearing the other party's next sentence.
"I want you to help me change his blood and cleanse his marrow."
"..." Shi Youchen's breath was slightly heavy, and he immediately objected, "No, it's too dangerous, and there's no suitable supply."
Yan Zhiyuan's firm voice came out: "Yes, me."
"Are you crazy? Do you know what that means?"
"I know, so only you can help me."
"I won't help you get killed."
"Youchen!" Yan Zhiyuan's attitude remained unwavering. "Yun Gui and I had an agreement before. During the time he was traveling around with the Alpha team, I applied to the association for resources to help you train. In return, he agreed to three conditions. Later, he didn't fulfill the three requests I made."
Shi Youchen's brows gradually furrowed as he realized that Yan Zhiyuan was threatening him, using his long-term friendship with Ying Yungui to threaten him.
"I don't know what your relationship with Yun Gui is now, but I know that you can't let him go."
"Can't I just think of it as... fulfilling that promise for him?"
Both sides were silent for a moment. Shi Youchen pondered for a long time before asking, "Tell me the complete plan, and I'll be at the portal right away. If I judge the success rate to be less than 80%, you can expect a beating."
In the end, Yan Zhiyuan was very lucky. What he waited for was not a lecture, but Shi Youchen with a somewhat gloomy face.
"How is it?" After he finished examining the unconscious Lin Zhouze on the bed, Yan Zhiyuan leaned closer and asked, "How is he? Is he worse than I expected?"
Shi Youchen glanced at him sideways and stood up. "In my prediction, if we let him continue like this, he'll be completely dead within six months. To put it nicely, he'll be in a vegetative state, but in reality, he's the living dead."
Yan Zhiyuan's face turned pale: "Then...is the method I proposed feasible?"
Shi Youchen stood up and looked around, realizing that this was still the place he remembered where he and Shen Min had first met. He felt somewhat relieved, and his expression softened considerably. "Others would only have less than half the success rate, but I can guarantee it will be a success."
Hearing this, Yan Zhiyuan breathed a sigh of relief, collapsed on the chair, closed his eyes and said thankfully: "Fortunately, fortunately you are here. Then I'll leave him and me to you. As for... Yun Gui's matter..."
Shi Youchen knew what he was about to say and stopped him: "This is just once. If you dare to mention it again, I will tell Lin Zhouze all your plans."
"...Thank you, Youchen."
"Go adjust your condition. Even if it doesn't feel cold here, soaking in glacial water is no joke. Fortunately, the energy and magnetic field are more stable during the polar night than at other times. I'll be done in half an hour and nothing will happen to you."
Yan Zhiyuan's eyes darkened and he lowered his eyes: "Okay, I believe you."
It was not until 11 o'clock in the evening, biology time, that Yan Zhiyuan carefully picked up Lin Zhouze and placed him in the position designated by Shi Youchen, not forgetting to put a thick blanket under him.
After doing this, he jumped into the nearest glacial water, tried to relax his whole body, and controlled himself to float on the water with his palms facing the sky.
Shi Youchen narrowed his eyes to confirm the position, then with a stroke of his fingertips, he cut a gash on Yan Zhiyuan's exposed wrist.
A stream of bright red blood flowed out from the crack and, under Shi Youchen's control, poured into Lin Zhouze's sleeping body.
In the water, Yan Zhiyuan felt the flow of his original blood. While maintaining consciousness, he analyzed and stripped away the surrounding water molecules, absorbing and transforming them, creating a light red "blood" that was different from the one in his body, which merged into his own body.
His soul gradually sank into this pale red ocean.
Shi Youchen used the healthy blood in Yan Zhiyuan's body to gradually squeeze out and replace the black blood in Lin Zhouze's body. The entire replacement process took only eight minutes with the assistance of space stripping.
For the next nearly twenty minutes, he helped the external blood flow throughout Lin Zhouze's body and observed the reactions of his organs and body.
Fortunately, just as Yan Zhiyuan planned, the blood in his body has become a kind of universal medium after being immersed in supernatural powers for a long time. Not only will it not reject the change of container, but it can also perfectly integrate and adapt to the new "body".
Therefore, as long as he can ensure the supply of his own blood, he can completely wash away the dirty "experimental debris" in Lin Zhouze's body.
Shi Youchen silently looked at the bedclothes stained with black blood, and once again thought of the super-evolution experiments that Ying Yungui had suffered, and was lost in thought for a moment.
When he suddenly came to his senses and realized that Yan Zhiyuan was still soaking in the water, the entire blood transfusion operation had been going on for nearly forty minutes.
"Yan Zhiyuan!"
"Cough! Cough cough! I'm fine!" Yan Zhiyuan's voice was obviously much weaker. He swam to the shore and stretched out his other uninjured hand to Shi Youchen, chuckling softly, "Come, give me a hand."
After pulling the man up, Shi Youchen healed the wound on his wrist, then gave him clean clothes and bedding: "I'll stay here to guard him, you go back to Shenhaiyuan first, and let He Xian check your whole body."
"I..." Yan Zhiyuan was about to speak when he was interrupted. "You don't want him to see you looking so weak when he wakes up, do you? Go back first. I'll let you know when he wakes up."
"..." Yan Zhiyuan wrapped himself in bedding and changed into clean clothes. He looked at Lin Zhouze's sleeping face with some nostalgia, "Okay, then I'll trouble you."
"Okay, this isn't the first time you've bothered me, let's go." Shi Youchen waved his hand to open the door back to the Mirage Abyss and drove people away.
