twists and turns

As soon as he finished speaking, the boy's struggle actually weakened a little.

The chaos in his eyes also paused for a second, and he seemed to show less consciousness.

Everyone around held their breath, staring at the boy without blinking.

Ning Fu glanced at Ling Shi and sped up the treatment.

This time, the rate at which the tender meat decayed was significantly slowed down.

Plop, plop, two more lumps of rotten meat fell down.

The tender meat underneath still retains its bright color.

Ling Shi breathed a sigh of relief and withdrew his hand.

I had originally thought Ning Fu could handle it, but who knew the young man was already on the verge of decay. If he had completely lost consciousness a moment later, even a great immortal would have been unable to save him.

Fortunately, he and Ning Fu worked together and finally pulled the man back from the brink of death.

However, this might expose his abilities.

Ling Shi glanced at Sergei and saw that his eyes were always fixed on his son.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

The purification ability is his trump card, so he should try to hide it for a while longer.

In just a short while, the boy stopped struggling and roaring, and collapsed limply on the bed.

He opened his eyes with all his strength, looked at Sergei, moved his lips, and then fainted.

Sergei was anxious and grabbed Ning Fu: "What's wrong with him?"

Ning Fu comforted him, "Don't worry, everything is fine now."

"He's overexerted himself. He's too tired. He'll wake up after he rests for a while."

Sergei relaxed suddenly.

He opened his mouth twice before saying, "Thank you very much."

Ning Fu put away the knives: "It's my duty."

Sergei thought for a moment and said, "How about this? Behind my villa, there's another small villa that's about the same size as where you live now."

"Why don't Dr. Ning stay here temporarily so that he can look after my son."

"How many rooms?" Lu Tingxiao suddenly interjected, "How many people can stay?"

Sergei calculated: "Three floors, six rooms. Normally, they have twin beds and double occupancy..."

"Let's move our people here," Lu Tingxiao said. "It'll be safer with your protection. I wonder if the general is willing to provide this help?"

Sergei smiled and said, "You saved my son. This is only natural. I'll send someone to do it right away."

After saying that, he glanced at Ning Fu and said, "Doctor Ning...if you are willing to live in my villa, that would be even better."

"He lives with us." Lu Tingxiao said again: "But there is a wall between us, so it's very convenient to come over."

"Okay." Sergei nodded and didn't insist.

Ning Fu bandaged the boy's wound and told Sergei to find someone to look after him and to go to him immediately if there were any problems.

Afterwards, several people followed Smirnov, left the villa, and went to the small villa at the back to rest.

Not long after, the other members of the White Eagle Team also arrived here and joined them.

In the living room on the first floor, everyone gathered together, some sitting and some standing, asking about what had just happened.

Lu Tingxiao explained them to everyone one by one.

About an hour later, hurried footsteps were heard at the door of the villa, followed by a burst of hearty laughter, and then Sergei's loud voice: "Doctor Ning, my son Dima is fine. He's awake, go check on him."

Ning Fu stood up and glanced at Ling Shi: "Let's go together. After all, it was you who saved that person."

Ling Shi nodded: "Let's go and take a look together."

In the blink of an eye, Sergei had already walked into the living room and enthusiastically took Ning's hand. "Oh, Doctor Ning, I really didn't expect that Dima was so seriously injured last night, but in just over an hour today, he has recovered to this extent."

"Your medical skills are simply the light of salvation given by God to mankind."

He rambled on, “How did this evolve?”

Before Ning Fu could answer, Lu Tingxiao interrupted, "What's the matter? Do you still want to create one by copying someone else's idea?"

Although his tone was not very good, Sergei did not get angry. He smiled and said, "Who wouldn't want such a great evolutionary ability?"

At this point, he changed the subject: "Doctor Ning, Ohio also has a policy to attract foreign population, and the treatment is very generous..."

"Don't even think about it." Lu Tingxiao interrupted him: "You're trying to steal my girlfriend right in front of us."

"Doctor Ning is a Chinese military doctor. It's impossible for him to renounce his nationality, let alone be employed by you."

After saying this, he slowly added, "Even if you kidnap him and imprison him, he will die like a soldier with integrity."

These words sounded a bit eerie, and Ning Fu's expression beside him looked a bit strange.

Not to mention Sergei.

However, Sergei was a general who had seen all kinds of things, so he soon laughed: "Just kidding, brother, I'm not a bastard like Sidorov."

"I will always be a friend of China."

Lu Tingxiao also smiled: "Since we are friends, then everything is easy to talk about. When a friend is in trouble, it is natural to help."

"For example, can the general agree to our request to come to Ohio?"

Sergei stopped laughing and said seriously, "I have reported this to General Pushkin."

"He has three requirements: First, no more than two people are allowed into the lab. Second, when you study the dragon horn, there must be Russian researchers present. Third, when you enter the lab, you must hand over the information from Country M to us."

Lu Tingxiao nodded: "Deal."

That afternoon, Smirnov sent Ling Shi and Lu Tingxiao to the research institute.

The research institute is an inconspicuous small house, located behind a tall building and is completely blocked from view.

If there was no one to lead the way, it would be hard to imagine that an important research base of a country is in this remote corner.

When they arrived outside the institute, Smirnov showed the official document issued by Sergei, and the soldiers on duty at the door opened the door for them.

The group entered the gate, walked through the corridor, and soon arrived outside the laboratory where the dragon horn was placed.

What caught my eye was Sidorov sitting on a chair, blocking the way. Dozens of people were standing behind him, blocking the narrow corridor.

Smirnov said angrily: "Sidorov, what do you want to do?!"

Sidorov didn't answer, not even a glance.

Smirnov wanted to step forward to argue, but Lu Tingxiao pulled him back: "Hey, we're outnumbered, don't go up and get yourself killed. They've got a general, why don't you find a general to support them?"

Smirnov suppressed his anger, nodded to Lu Tingxiao, and turned to ask Sergei to leave.

Ling Shi and Lu Tingxiao asked the soldiers on duty at the door for two chairs and sat down to wait.

Sidorov looked at them twice without saying anything.

After a while, Sergei came.

He did not come alone. There was a tall and thin old man next to him. Although he was not young, he was in good spirits and his eyes were bright.

Lu Tingxiao stood up and said to Ling Shi, "This old man is really patient. He only showed up now after his men were fighting."

Ling Shi thought for a moment and said, "He must be Pushkin."

"Yes." Lu Tingxiao agreed, took two steps forward, and greeted: "General Pushkin, nice to meet you."

Pushkin stopped, glanced at Lu Tingxiao and Ling Shi, and smiled faintly: "Welcome friends from China."

After saying that, he walked straight in without much greeting, came in front of Sidorov, and started chattering.

Ling Shi didn't understand and poked Lu Tingxiao.

Lu Tingxiao grabbed his hand and translated, "This general is so gentle when he scolds people. He has a very good temper."

Ling Shi smiled: "You should also learn from them."

Lu Tingxiao held onto his hand tightly and didn't let go: "Why would you want to imitate him? This old fox, no matter how kind he appears, he's actually very evil at heart."

"I'm a kind-hearted person."

"Yeah. A good guy with a skin as thick as a city wall." Ling Shi summed it up.

As they chatted, they listened to the negotiations between the three highest officials in Ohio.

As they chatted, Ling Shi noticed that Lu Tingxiao's expression was not right.

Ling Shi: "What's wrong?"

Lu Tingxiao's voice dropped. "You still say he's gentle and good-tempered. I know damn well that eleven out of ten old foxes like him have black hearts."

Before Ling Shi could get the result, Pushkin ended his conversation with Sidorov and turned to walk towards them.

He observed that Sergei, who was following behind Pushkin, also looked a little embarrassed.

Pushkin stood before them and, without further ado, said, "Sergei and I have requested permission for you to study dragon horns. I originally agreed."

"But, Mikhail just told me that you hurt his subordinates in China. So, he doesn't approve of you being friends with Ohio."

"I'm sorry, as the temporary chief executive of Ohio, I need to consider the position of my subordinates."

Lu Tingxiao's voice was calm: "So, our rescue doesn't count? And Long Jiao's research has also been ruined?"

Pushkin shook his head. "Let's put it this way. You saved Dima and brought us information from Country M. You've already demonstrated your sincerity."

"So, I have a proposal. If you can solve one more problem for Ohio State, Sergei's previous application will remain valid."

Lu Tingxiao snorted, "Tell me about it."

Pushkin: "More than 100 kilometers away from the base, there is a secret research base we used to have."

“When the corrupt people arrived, it was one of the first areas to fall.”

"There is a very important research device in the research base that has never been taken out."

"If you could..."

Lu Tingxiao: "What kind of device is it? Why can't it be taken out?"

Pushkin: "The concentration of the visible index in this area is too high. After the dragon warriors entered, they all became corrupted without exception."

Lu Tingxiao sneered: "Then how do we get in to get it?"

Pushkin smiled and said, "For the sake of the dragon horn, I have to give it a try."

After saying that, without even a few polite words, he turned around and instructed Sergei: "You stay with them. If they need any supplies, just approve them directly."

Sergei sent Pushkin away, looked at Lu Tingxiao and Ling Shi, and sighed.

Lu Tingxiao didn't say a word to him and just dragged Ling Shi away.

Sergei chased after them and shouted a few times, but the two ignored him and instead quickened their pace.

Only when there was no one behind him did Ling Shi ask, "What should I do?"

Lu Tingxiao's face was solemn: "Let's talk about it when we get back."

The two returned to the villa as quickly as possible.

The White Eagles were a little surprised to see them appear so quickly.

"Captain Lu, isn't everything going well?" Ma Minghong asked.

Lu Tingxiao suddenly laughed and said slowly, "It went very smoothly."

"What do you mean it went smoothly?" Ling Shi asked in confusion. "They didn't let us see the dragon horn, and we even helped them get some equipment. How could it have been smooth sailing?"

Lu Tingxiao looked at him, a smug look of success on his face, and said frivolously: "Baby, don't be anxious, listen to me slowly."

"This device...I've been coveting it for a long time~"
