Her body was covered in blood and she looked extremely miserable. It was obvious that she had been through a fierce battle before the accident.
Ling Yuan looked at her like this and felt a sense of admiration in her heart. No matter what the relationship between this person and Wei Jie was, the mere fact that a woman could go on the field and fight those zombies was enough to make her respect her.
However, even so, it cannot change the fact that she is about to become a zombie.
Ling Yuan lowered her eyes apologetically, loosened her hand, and slowly stood up.
Wei Jie and Wei Li immediately walked forward nervously, "How is she doing?"
"The situation is not good. She has begun to mutate." Ling Yuan shook her head regretfully, "I'm sorry that I can't help you."
Wei Li's face suddenly turned pale, and his handsome face, covered in dust, was full of fear and anxiety. "Then, can she still be saved?"
Ling Yuan pursed her lips and subconsciously looked at the palm of her hand.
The light blue mark was just as blue as when she was healthy, and very beautiful.
This means that her body is healthy and may be able to help her absorb toxins.
But her body had just been cleansed from corpse poison, and she didn't know if she could still succeed.
In particular, although the poison in Shangguan Qingxi's body is also poisonous, it still poses huge risks compared to ordinary poisons.
If she fails to handle it properly, she will be hit hard instead. Ling Yuan will never do such a loss-making business.
In particular, they are important to her, but not important to her.
If that's the case, why would she take the risk for someone she doesn't even know?
Ling Yuan is not a living Bodhisattva. The ghost doctor has been roaming the world for so many years, and the number of times she has seen people die without saving them is more than the number of times she has saved people.
She doesn't need to save everyone. Everything is up to her own will. They have no right to force her, and she will not go against her own wishes and do things she doesn't want to do.
Even if this person is important to them.
She slowly raised her eyes and looked at Wei Jie without blinking: "I can't save her."
When Ling Yuan was about to leave and pass by him, Wei Jie suddenly grabbed her arm, looked at her sideways, and said sternly: "What do you want me to do to save her?"
Ling Yuan's heart sank, and she looked at him with a gaze as deep as an ancient well: "Did I not express myself clearly enough just now? If so, I don't mind repeating it again. I can't save this person! I can't save him! Did you hear me clearly?"
"Didn't you have research results when you were in the City That Never Sleeps?"
"She wasn't bitten by an ordinary zombie, but by the Red Evil. The Red Evil's toxicity is even more terrible than Bailifu, and much more powerful than ordinary zombies. Besides, she didn't take my medicine back then, so she didn't have the slightest resistance. Now she's like this, I can only do nothing to help her."
Although Wei Li didn't understand why Wei Jie was so persistent with her, Ling Yuan was indeed the first doctor to fight against zombies, and he didn't want to give up just like that: "Princess Feng, Wei Li begs you, please save her, please save her, okay?"
Ling Yuan was getting very impatient with the two of them pestering her. She had clearly told them that she had no other options, so why were they still forcing her like this?
"I've already said that I have no choice."
Ling Yuan forcefully brushed off Wei Jie's restraints and walked into the room without looking back.
Wei Jie pursed his lips and cast his gaze towards Wei Li, who was already showing a look of despair: "Don't worry, I won't just leave her alone like this."
"Master, is there no other way?" After all, he couldn't bear to watch his mother die.
Master Zihe lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then looked at his disciple fiercely: "Do you really need to save him?"
"Yes, Master, please tell me a solution." Master Zihe looked at him deeply, "What if the final decision still has to be made by Lingyuan?"
"There is indeed a way, right?" Wei Jie's eyes flashed and he looked at Zi He steadily.
Zi He stroked his beard and glanced hesitantly in the direction of Ling Yuan's room. "To save this girl, I don't have a direct way, but Ling Yuan's blood may be able to temporarily suppress her poison, but it can't solve the fundamental problem."
"If we want to solve it, I'm afraid we have to rely on this little girl Ling Yuan. After all, she has done similar experiments before and understands the mutation process of the zombie poison better than we do."
"But, I am afraid that Shangguan girl may not be able to hold on until that day!"
"Blood? Can it be suppressed with blood?"
Wei Jie's heart moved, but when he thought of Ling Yuan's grudge against Qing Xi, a trace of worry appeared in his eyes, "I'll go ask her."
When Wei Jie approached Ling Yuan for the second time, she stared at him with cold eyes and said calmly, "I never thought that there would be someone in this world that His Majesty the Phoenix King cares so much about. I'm really curious, who is she?"
"A very important person."
"How important? More important than me?"
Wei Jie pursed his lips and tried hard to think which one was more important, his mother or his wife.
But after thinking for a long time, he made the tragic discovery that there was no comparison between the two.
He couldn't afford to lose his wife, and he couldn't bear to leave his mother either. This damn trade-off made him fall into such an agonizing choice for the first time.
He even looked at her firmly, "There's really nothing between her and me, why don't you believe me?"
"Nothing. Why is it so difficult to make a choice? Wei Jie, you don't really think I'm a child, do you?"
Ling Yuan's words made Wei Jie laugh and cry, "You are unwilling to save her because you care about the relationship between her and me?"
Ling Yuan suddenly laughed coldly: "Haha, so in your heart, I am such a person, Wei Jie, I have saved you many times in vain, and in the end, this is what you say about me?"
"Okay, don't say anything. Don't you just want to use my blood to temporarily suppress the spread of her poison?"
Wei Jie's eyes were filled with helplessness: "Yuan'er, I said, when the time is right, I will tell you her identity and everything about her. Can you please give me some time? I know this is unfair to you, but, but I have no choice now. She can't die. If she dies like this, I..."
"Okay, sure. Bring me the bowl and I'll bleed you right away."
Wei Jie obviously didn't expect her to be so happy, and was stunned for a moment: "You..."
"Isn't it just a bowl of blood? I'll give it to you."
"As for how long you can last, it's not up to me to decide."
Wei Jie could see that she was unhappy, but he swallowed the words back when they came to his lips. Finally, he sighed and walked out.
After a while, he brought a bowl over. Ling Yuan took out his dagger and lightly cut his wrist. Drops of bright red blood fell into the clean white porcelain bowl.
After putting a whole bowl in, she raised an eyebrow and looked at him: "Is that enough?"
Wei Jie nodded quickly, "That's enough."
Ling Yuan immediately pressed her pulse with her fingers and turned around indifferently, "If that's enough, take it away. I'm tired, you don't have to stay here."
Wei Jie's body stiffened, "You, you still need care."
"Thank you. Just call An Hui and Annie over."
When An Hui and Annie were mentioned out of the blue, Wei Jie's eyes changed suddenly. He actually forgot about the two girls who had always been by his side.
Ling Yuan, who had not received a response for a long time, clearly felt that something was wrong.
She turned around with a frown, "Why? Is it difficult?"
Wei Jie looked at her face for a long time before uttering a few words: "They are already dead."
Ling Yuan's body trembled, and he suddenly raised his head, his eyes more nervous than ever before: "You, what did you say?"
"They are already dead. They were crushed to death by Hong Xie."
Ling Yuan's body swayed, and she staggered and fell on the couch. Wei Jie hurried forward to help her, but she pushed him away cruelly.
"Your hands are still dripping with blood."
"Don't bother me, I don't want you to bother me!"
"It's already this hour, do I still care about this little bit of blood? Why don't you save them? Why?"
Although she had not spent much time with these girls, because they came from Fengchi Villa and were personally selected for her by her brothers, she had an instinctive dependence on them.
But, before their feelings could develop, she just died?
Wei Jie felt uncomfortable seeing her like this, especially when he thought about the deaths of the two girls, his expression became even uglier.
"At that time, Hong Xie was holding Qing Xi in her hand, and no one expected that she would suddenly attack An Hui."
"Qingxi? Haha, this name is really intimate. How could it be such a coincidence? It's her again? Haha, it's her again?"
"Because she was restrained, you didn't dare to rescue them easily, right?"
"No, the situation was chaotic, especially the state of the two of them, which was very wrong. They were dazed and stunned. After An Hui's neck was bitten off,"
"What did you say? Was my An Hui's neck bitten off by that monster Hong Xie?"
