Chapter 81: Frozen Zone Insect Swarm (Seventeen)
The next day, after his mind cleared up, Xie Mian held his forehead and sighed.
I never thought that one day I would be able to do such an abstract thing. It’s really crazy.
Thinking about the stupid things I did last night.
Xie Mian's face flushed.
Fortunately, E Shifang slept soundly and didn't wake up last night.
In response, Goose Shifang quietly shook the eggshell, and the "egg" said contentedly that the goose didn't know, the goose knew nothing.
After breakfast, Xie Mian took E Shifang to the base hospital for consultation.
The hospital corridors are always crowded with people.
Whether before or after the end of the world.
Especially after learning that Xie Mian's insect energy could cure insect bites, the clinic was crowded with people.
If it weren't for the insect-loving security guards clearing the way, Xie Mian wouldn't be able to enter the clinic's door, let alone the hospital's door.
After entering the clinic, Xie Mian first took out the goose egg and confirmed that Goose Shifang was safe and sound before starting to call out numbers.
The benches outside the clinic were filled with pale-faced patients, some of whom were covering their bleeding wounds, and some were hugging their twitching limbs.
"Number 1."
The cold, mechanical sound of the calling machine rang out.
The door was opened by the security guard and a middle-aged man almost fell in.
His right arm was wrapped in a dirty cloth, and dark red blood had seeped through the fabric.
"Doctor, save me!"
"It's been less than an hour since I was bitten, and they said you can cure it!"
The man's voice trembled and his forehead was covered in cold sweat.
Xie Mian gestured for him to sit down and untied the cloth strips.
The wound under the cloth had turned black, and the surrounding blood vessels began to move abnormally.
He held his palm three centimeters above the wound, and a pale green light overflowed from his palm, wrapping around the wound like a living mist.
"It will be a little painful, bear with it."
As Xie Mian finished speaking, the man let out a suppressed cry of pain.
The black substance in the wound began to bubble as if it was boiling, and then gradually faded away, revealing bright red flesh.
The whole process lasted three minutes.
After seeing that the insect poison had been eliminated, Xie Mian stopped and did not further treat the patient.
This was done after Xie Mian and Lin Heng discussed it.
Although his trump card of being able to heal insect monster bites has been revealed, it is still up to him to decide how powerful his healing insects are and to what extent they can be treated.
A man is innocent unless he is in possession of a treasure.
On the other hand, outputting insect energy is a drain on the body. Research at the base has found that once insect energy is exhausted, if the insect stone is not replenished in time, the person will die.
Lin Heng didn't want that to happen to Xie Mian.
Many people are bitten in the base every day. If every one of them is completely healed and restored to their original state, it will be too costly for Xie Mian.
Only removing the insect poison can reduce the consumption of medicine and save more people.
After the parasite poison is cleared by Xiemian, the patient will go to the parasite clinic to seek follow-up treatment from other parasite sufferers, or go to a general clinic for bandaging.
Second clinic.
Two insect-loving doctors in white coats were munching on sunflower seeds and complaining. They didn't stop talking even when a patient came in.
"Look at our 'savior', how glorious he is."
Doctor Wang sneered, put down the melon seeds in his hand, clapped his hands, and took the registration form with a cold face.
The person who came in was an ordinary person who was dirty, had no insect power, and had an even uglier face.
Xie Mian was such a jerk! He wanted to treat ordinary people, but he dragged them into this mess. He said that insect-infested doctors must treat everyone equally, and only then would he join the medical team.
Haha, it turns out they only need to treat the insect-loving people every day. And the insect-loving people are generous and often give them supplies as a thank you.
Now, I have to work myself to death to entertain a bunch of bugs every day.
He felt like all his insect energy was being drained away.
What made him even more indignant was that the rations the base gave Xie Mian were ten times theirs, and they also assigned insect-community security guards to protect his safety in the hospital. The number of patients they could see each day was also limited to 100.
"I heard that he is Lin Heng's younger brother. Haha, his brother relies on seducing people to get to the top. I think he is also a slutty fox. Maybe the two brothers share the same man at night... Hahaha."
Chen Da, who was receiving treatment, was so angry when he heard this that his face turned red, but he dared not say a word.
What bullshit are these two crappy doctors talking about? If it weren't for Dr. Xie, these ordinary people without insect power would have been buried in the ground long ago.
Dr. Xie is not that kind of person at all.
These insect followers always acted high and mighty, and it was only because Consultant Lin often helped them that they were able to survive until now.
Chen Da lowered his head so that no one could see his serious anger.
After his wound healed, he rolled up his sleeves and walked out without saying a word.
"A bedbug is a bedbug. He can't even say thank you."
"I'm telling you, these ordinary people will be eliminated sooner or later. From now on, it will be us, the insect-loving ones, who will dominate the world!"
Chen Da came out of the clinic and was about to leave when he suddenly saw a commotion at the door of Xie Mian's clinic.
A burly man pushed through the queue and rushed straight to Xie Mian's clinic.
Chen Da knew the man. His name was Zhao Tiezhu. A while ago, his child and wife were bitten by insect monsters and died.
That man wouldn't want to... Chen Da was shocked and pushed the crowd aside, squeezing towards Xie Mian's clinic.
In the clinic, Xie Mian was lowering his head, treating a child who had been bitten.
The door was kicked open and hit the wall with a loud bang.
"Thank you!" Zhao Tiezhu's eyes were red, and he held an iron kettle tightly in his hand. "You selfish bastard!"
Xie Mian ignored it and continued the treatment calmly. A layer of transparent light shield flashing with lightning power instantly formed around him.
At the same second, Zhao Tiezhu poured the liquid in the iron kettle towards him.
The transparent liquid drew an arc in the air, making a hissing sound when it hit the protective shield, and pungent white smoke rose.
——It is concentrated sulfuric acid.
There was chaos outside the clinic.
The people in the queue screamed and retreated, and the two security guards guarding the door rolled on the ground screaming, with sulfuric acid splashed on their faces.
"Where were you when my wife and child were bitten?" Zhao Tiezhu roared at the top of his lungs. "If you had the ability, why didn't you come out and save them sooner?"
"Go to hell, go to hell, I want you to go with them!"
Sulfuric acid etched tiny black pits into the white tiles, emitting acrid fumes. Xie Mian sat unharmed within the protective shield, not even raising his head.
Zhao Tiezhu walked forward angrily, trying to break the protective shield, but the electric current from the shield caused him to convulse all over and he fell to the ground.
After the insect poison on the little boy was cleared, Xie Mian knocked on the goose egg, signaling Goose Shifang to remove the protective shield.
He didn't look at Zhao Tiezhu who was lying on the ground, but first treated the two security guards at the door.
After treating the security guard, he turned his gaze to Zhao Tiezhu's distorted face.
"First, I'm not a savior, nor do I want to be one. Saving you is convenient; not saving you is my duty."
"Secondly—" His eyes were like a blade tempered with ice, "To survive the apocalypse, you either have to be ruthless or strong enough."
"Your wife died because you couldn't protect her; your child is gone because you're incompetent."
"You are a waste yourself, don't blame others."
"Third—" He suddenly grabbed Zhao Tiezhu's neck with such force that it almost broke his bones.
"It's not your turn to question what I do."
"Say one more word, and I won't mind letting you go down to be with your wife and children."
After saying this, he shook off Zhao Tiezhu like throwing away a dirty rag, turned around and sat back in his chair, saying coldly:
"roll."
