Jian Luo's words came to an abrupt end.
Secretary Jin, who had just returned from her trip, stood outside. She awkwardly held the nutrient solution in her hand and coughed softly, "Um, I didn't hear anything."
“…”
Stop hiding it.
Jian Luo withdrew his hand and pretended to be calm: "Really? Hahaha, no one spoke just now."
Secretary Jin firmly agreed, "Yes, yes, no one said anything."
The two looked at each other awkwardly, then looked away.
Finally, it was Secretary Jin who spoke first: "Luoluo, the military doctor just told me to get you some tasteless nutrient solution to see if you can try it."
Jian Luo was really intolerant of the nutrient solution. He frowned and said, "Secretary Jin, please, I really don't like drinking this stuff."
"Luoluo..." Secretary Jin also looked troubled. "But if you don't drink, your body won't have any nutrition, and what will happen to the child?"
Jian Luo sighed.
Life is so hard. He sat on the sofa and suddenly recalled the little dragon cub that was crawling on his shoulder at that time. Was that black cub his cub that hadn't made a sound yet?
It looks like...
Quite thin.
Is it because my body is weak and I can't absorb nutrients that the cub is so small?
Looking back, it seemed that it was not even as big as the palm of my hand. Think about how strong the other little dragons were. What if his cubs were born with poor physical condition and were laughed at by others?
Thinking of this, Jian Luo suddenly felt stronger: "Okay, give it to me and let me try it."
Secretary Jin was delighted: "Luoluo, here you go."
The nutrient solution is stored in this glass bottle, and it still looks the familiar green.
Jian Luo opened the lid with the same gesture as a warrior drawing a sword from its sheath. He said solemnly, "I drank it."
He poured all the nutrient solution into his mouth in one go. Jian Luo didn't even dare to take the time to savor the taste, and drank it all in one gulp.
After drinking, he and Secretary Jin waited quietly for a while.
Secretary Jin hesitated and asked, "How is it?"
"Well..." Jian Luo savored it for a moment: "It really does feel tasteless, like drinking water."
Secretary Jin breathed a sigh of relief: "Then it looks like everything is fine!"
Jian Luo was about to nod when he suddenly felt nauseous. He patted his chest and suddenly rushed to the bathroom. He lay on the toilet in a somewhat embarrassed manner and vomited out all the water he had drunk.
Secretary Jin was also dumbfounded.
Jian Luo gasped twice, then stood up and rinsed himself. He had been lying there for a little too long, and when he stood up suddenly, he felt dizzy and miserable.
Secretary Jin quickly rushed over to support him: "Luoluo!"
Jian Luo held onto the door frame with great difficulty, walked to the table beside him and drank a sip of water to rinse his mouth. He lay on the sofa, exhausted, "Forget it, don't bother me anymore."
Secretary Jin frowned: "How can you not eat?"
Jian Luo waved his hands, he was really tired: "I'll take a break."
"All right."
Secretary Jin looked at the young man who walked to the bedside to rest, and for some reason she felt a little distressed. Jian Shi was really too thin. When he sat, the small curve of his belly could be seen, but his limbs were very slender. He lowered his head, and only his fair and tender profile could be seen, which looked a little pitiful.
Secretary Jin came out of the room and saw the secretary assistant waiting outside.
The assistant whispered, "How is it?"
Secretary Jin shook her head.
"What should we do then?" The assistant scratched his head, clearly feeling somewhat troubled. "The human body is inherently fragile. If this continues, Luo Luo won't be able to hold on, right?"
Secretary Jin also sighed: "I'll go discuss this with the adjutant."
The young assistant also followed him, and the two of them came to the front one after the other. The adjutant saw them and nodded politely and reservedly.
Secretary Jin stood in front of the adjutant's desk and briefly summarized the current situation: "Adjutant, I hope you can report to the marshal and make a decision."
The adjutant, holding the document in his hand, said, "Secretary Jin, I think you may have misunderstood me. You know the marshal's current situation. Humans are so timid. Are you sure he can withstand the shock?"
Secretary Jin choked.
She was indeed a little inconsiderate about these things, but Jian Luo's situation really could not be delayed any longer.
Secretary Jin sighed and said, "Mr. Adjutant, regardless of whether Jian Luo can bear it or not, this is not our decision, do you understand?"
The adjutant was silent.
The three people faced each other, staring at each other. Just when no one had made up their minds, the door inside opened and everyone looked towards the door unconsciously.
At the door, Lu Shifeng stood there in his neatly trimmed military uniform. The collar of his uniform was slightly open, revealing the dragon scales on his body. Only his face was invisible. He said, "Jiang Han."
The adjutant stood up in an instant.
Lu Shifeng looked at him with a cold gaze: "Is his information bracelet ready?"
Jiang Han nodded quickly and said, "It's done."
"Yes." Lu Shifeng walked to the lounge not far away and sat down: "Go and give it to him."
Jiang Han was stunned at first, but quickly reacted and quickly accepted the order: "Yes!"
When the adjutant received the order and left, his expression was obviously not very good. Secretary Jin saw it and sighed.
Lu Shifeng said to her, "Has Jian Luo not eaten yet?"
Secretary Jin said, "Yes, I haven't eaten since I left that day, and I always vomit when I do eat. The military doctor said it might be due to the lack of pheromone comfort from my partner, and also... I'm a little worried and uncomfortable with the local climate."
Lu Shifeng tapped the table with his fingertips without saying a word.
Secretary Jin was also tactful and didn't say anything. She could see that the Marshal was in a really bad mood. After all, anyone could see that the Marshal actually cared about Jian Luo very much. This could be seen from the fact that he went to settle the score personally because Yinhui had scared Jian Luo.
Now that Jian Luo is having problems with the child, the Marshal himself must be feeling bad.
The other side
Jian Luo received the information bracelet sent by his adjutant.
He looked at the new bracelet and was a little surprised: "Silver?"
"Yes, I developed it temporarily for you. All the functions are quite complete." The adjutant said, "You can use it as soon as you put it on."
Jian Luo nodded: "Okay."
The adjutant seemed to want to say something but hesitated. Finally, his eyes stopped at Jian Luo's belly, and he left without saying a word.
Jian Luo was trying to figure out how to use his new bracelet when suddenly a call came in. He was startled to find it was Lu Shifeng calling, and he picked up the call with a shaking hand.
This is also a video communication.
The video was connected, and Jian Luo looked up and saw Lu Shifeng's face. After not seeing him for a few days, Lu Shifeng seemed a little haggard.
Of course, it cannot be said that he looks haggard, but at least he looks a bit vicious. His facial features are deep and three-dimensional, and his blood-red eyes are dark, like a beast ready to pounce.
Even through the video, he was a little scared.
Jian Luo mumbled, "Marshal?"
Lu Shifeng said "hmm".
"Are you okay?" Jian Luo was a little worried, but still asked: "Are you hurt?"
Lu Shifeng didn't say anything, just said: "Yeah, a minor injury."
Then why don’t you come back to see me!
Jian Luo's heart was roaring, but in reality he could only hug himself tightly in a slightly timid manner.
Lu Shifeng took out the book and asked, "Have you learned all the lessons that the Master Priest has prepared for you?"
“…”
Jian Luo choked up: "Isn't it still early? Don't be impatient."
Lu Shifeng turned the page of the book and said to him, "Which chapter is the specific assignment? Let me see."
Jian Luo responded. He was actually still a little upset, but Lu Shifeng's intention to check his homework completely diverted his attention. So he quickly got out of bed, took out his book, and said to the video: "Actually, I'm reviewing on my own. It's mainly because I'm not very good at these questions on this page..."
He began to talk in a rambling manner, and Lu Shifeng listened there, occasionally interrupting with a word or two.
Jian Luo had been in a bad state for the past few days, but when he was discussing the subject with Lu Shifeng, he almost put those things behind him.
At the end of his speech, he looked up at Lu Shifeng and said hesitantly: "Do you think this solution is correct?"
Lu Shifeng flipped through the pages nonchalantly, saying, "There are a few mistakes. Look at line b. The verb shouldn't be used like that."
The two of them looked at each other, and Jian Luo nodded thoughtfully.
After finishing his homework, he casually mentioned that he was also reading a medical book: "I think once I learn it, maybe I can do more than just cooking during my live broadcasts. I can also add some other things."
Lu Shifeng said bluntly: "You can add things, but don't read too late."
"……oh."
Jian Luo buried his head in the book, carefully reading Lu Shifeng's words, and noticed the wording in it, which probably meant that he still wouldn't come back to sleep.
After realizing this, Jian Luo's mood inexplicably became a degree lower.
Finally, he couldn't help but ask, "Um, when will your wound heal?"
He raised his head to look at Lu Shifeng in that part of the video, his dark eyes full of sincerity. Because of this angle, the Marshal could see Jian Luo's face clearly. That somewhat thin face had really become much thinner. It could be seen that this child was probably having a really hard time these days.
Lu Shifeng, who had seen many storms and suffered many injuries, and who had never felt any pain, suddenly felt a blockage in his heart.
Seeing that he didn't say anything and still had a stern face, Jian Luo panicked a little and quickly changed the subject, "I was just asking casually, just... asking for my son."
Lu Shifeng said in a deep voice: "Really?"
"Yeah, yeah." Jian Luo smiled. To change the subject, he said, "By the way, you know, Brother Long, I dreamed of a cub yesterday. It was a black cub, very small and black. It was only the size of my palm, you know?"
Lu Shifeng looked at his face and repeated only once: "Really?"
Jian Luo nodded heavily.
A hint of smile seemed to flash across Lu Shifeng's eyes: "Did you only see one?"
"Oh, right..." Jian Luo was also confused. He subconsciously touched his belly and mumbled, "Could it be that I checked wrongly and only have one cub?"
Lu Shifeng asked him to think more positively: "That's right, maybe some people's spiritual intelligence awakens earlier."
Jian Luo nodded: "Oh, I see."
The two chatted for a while, and finally Jian Luo felt a little sleepy. He glanced at Lu Shifeng in the video and waved his hand: "Then I'm going to sleep."
Lu Shifeng said "hmm".
Lu Shifeng didn't turn off the video until he saw the person in the video fall asleep.
Secretary Jin was waiting not far away. Seeing this, she came over and handed over the nutrient solution prescribed by the military doctor. "The military doctor said you need to replenish the calming nutrient solution now. This is the new one today."
Lu Shifeng took it, opened it and drank some.
Secretary Jin was about to take his leave: "Then I will leave first."
Lu Shifeng placed the empty bottle on the table and said in a deep voice, "Go to Jian Luo and keep him company."
Secretary Jin was stunned.
"If he has anything to say, come and tell me immediately." Lu Shifeng raised his head to look at her and said in a deep voice, "Do you understand?"
Secretary Jin's heart trembled when her eyes met those red eyes, and she quickly said, "I understand!"
“…”
Who dares not understand this?
Even if Lu Shifeng is gentle, it is only towards his little wife.
In fact, Secretary Jin was more or less clear about why Lu Shifeng didn't go to see Jian Luo. The scales on his body couldn't retreat, and the murderous aura was too strong, which might really scare him.
Thinking of this, Secretary Jin sighed: "Yes."
——
Jian Luo had another nightmare.
This time he didn't dream of himself, but of a place he had never been to. The grass here was burnt yellow, and there was a rotten and pungent smell everywhere.
suddenly
The hillside not far away shook, and a four-legged insect broke out of the ground. The insect was huge, and it looked to be about eight feet tall. Its long whiskers were swinging in the air, and it looked very lethal.
Jian Luo widened his eyes and wanted to take a few steps back, but he was discovered by the insect as soon as he moved. The insect rushed towards Jian Luo like a mouse seeing rice.
"Bang!"
At the critical moment, a huge black dragon fell from the sky. The dragon collided with the giant dragon, and a huge smoke rose from the ground.
Next, Jian Luo swore that he saw unprecedented scenes of frenzy and killing.
There were countless magical beasts in this place, and the black dragon fought tirelessly to kill them, and soon dyed the entire hillside red.
Jian Luo glanced at the ground and sighed, "Could it be that this is either burnt or stained red with blood?"
He was complaining here, but unfortunately, the black dragon that was killing over there just stopped. The dragon turned around and looked over here with sharp eyes. When they met, the familiar blood-red eyes made Jian Luo's heart tremble.
Their eyes met, and he felt like a prey pinned to the spot.
suddenly
The dragon lunged at him with its entire body.
Jian Luo was so frightened that he stood there, not daring to move at all. He didn't know if his brain was stupid or his legs were weak from fear. When a ferocious dragon pounces towards you, you know that you will die if you are not careful, but you still dare not move.
“Boom!”
The black dragon swung its tail, and a four-horned insect that was lagging behind was thrown several meters away and crashed onto a hill not far away.
As he got closer, Jian Luo could clearly see the dragon scales on the black dragon's body, which were stained with blood from some unknown creature. It was very strange to say, there were obviously many black dragons in the world, but when he looked at the one in front of him, he had an inexplicable sense of certainty.
The wind on the hill was blowing hard, blowing through Jane Luo's hair.
The black dragon slowly turned around, looking at Jian Luo with a distant pair of eyes filled with murderous intent. It was as if he was sizing up a strange prey, a prey that would die with just a slap of his claws. Jian Luo stood in front of him, an unarmed human standing in front of the huge black dragon.
The dragon and the man looked at each other for a moment, and time seemed to freeze.
quite a while
Jian Luo spoke, his voice a little hoarse: "Are you going to kill me?"
Black Dragon didn't say anything. Just when Jian Luo was about to speak, he woke up and opened his eyes. He was still in the room on the warship. Every detail of his dream seemed to be right in front of him, and the reality was very touching.
He gasped twice and was covered in sweat.
Looking at the person next to him, he had been sleeping with Lu Shifeng since the incident with the child in February or March. He had trouble sleeping before, but he had no nightmares after being with him. Now, he hardly had a good sleep at night, as he was always thinking about this or that.
Jian Luo fell on the bed in a state of self-abandonment, muttering, "Kill me..."
"Dong Dong Dong"
There was a knock on the door
Jian Luo sat up: "Please come in."
Secretary Jin heard a noise from inside and came in with a dining cart. "Luoluo, it's evening, time to eat. You haven't eaten in two days."
Jian Luo felt physically uncomfortable when he saw the food. He said with a bitter face: "I can't eat it."
Secretary Jin sighed inwardly. She said, "Luoluo, try again. If it doesn't work today, we can talk about it later."
Jian Luo didn't want to make things difficult for her. Seeing her frown, he finally just sighed, got off the bed, sat in front of the table and ate a few bites.
Secretary Jin looked at him expectantly.
"--vomit"
Jian Luo just sat for a while before running to the bathroom to vomit acid.
Secretary Jin stood there sighing. She walked over to help Jian Luo up, but before she even reached him, Jian Luo, who had just stood up, began to stagger and was about to fall. Secretary Jin rushed over: "Luoluo!"
Jian Luo's eyes went dark, and he recovered after a while: "It's okay, it's okay, maybe I have a little low blood sugar."
Secretary Jin said firmly: "I'll send you to get a nutritional injection!"
“…”
No.
Jian Luo was taken to the military doctor. He felt a little numb when he saw the doctor giving him a nutritional injection. In fact, he was also hungry, but he couldn't eat anything.
The military doctor said, "If you really feel uncomfortable, remember to tell me."
Jian Luo nodded.
He could still hold himself together for a while, but the moment he saw the needle, he couldn't hold it back anymore. Jian Luo started crying. If it weren't for the two unruly children in his belly, he would have chosen to starve to death rather than get an acupuncture injection.
The military doctor finally gave the injection.
The nutrient solution contained calming and sleeping ingredients. Jian Luo fell asleep quickly after lying on the bed. The military doctor put away all the equipment.
"drop"
The outer door opened.
Lu Shifeng stood at the door, his eyes first fell on Jian Luo lying on the hospital bed, and he frowned at the first moment, wondering why she was even thinner than what he saw in the video.
Secretary Jin stood at attention: "Marshal."
Lu Shifeng nodded: "Everyone get out."
The military doctor and Secretary Jin did not dare to delay and hurried out.
Lu Shifeng and Jian Luo were the only two people left in the room. Lu Shifeng sat next to Jian Luo, saying nothing and just sitting there quietly.
Dragon scales could still be seen on his neck.
Lu Shifeng's breathing was very unstable, but when he sat next to Jian Luo, the violent murderous aura in his heart was like boiling water encountering a piece of ice, and it was gradually settling down.
There was the sound of Jian Luo's faint breathing in the room, which made people feel extremely at ease.
Lu Shifeng looked at the person on the bed and saw that Jian Luo had his brows tightly closed in his sleep. He slowly stretched out his hand and pressed his rough fingertips on the frowning brows. The person in the sleep hummed unconsciously, which was very cute.
A smile unconsciously appeared in Lu Shifeng's eyes.
He was born accustomed to killing, and the manic gene in his bones made it difficult for him to calm down after being stained with blood. Although he seemed calm to others, only he knew the pain. But when he saw Jian Luo, he was like a beast that was eager to rush into the room and suddenly calmed down.
He discovered it from the beginning.
Even if we haven't met, just eating the food he cooks can help me calm down.
Jian Luo was not at ease in her sleep. Seeing that the nutrient injection was about to run out, Lu Shifeng stood up to leave. The Marshal had just taken two steps when suddenly, someone grabbed her wrist. Jian Luo woke up suddenly from her dream and subconsciously grabbed something. Unexpectedly, she actually held it.
Their eyes met, and the room fell silent.
Lu Shifeng said in a deep voice: "Awake?"
"Hmm?" Jian Luo struggled to sit up, but forgot there was a needle in his wrist and screamed in pain: "Ah, it hurts!"
Lu Shifeng: "..."
Helping to take the needle off, he held Jian Luo's shoulder, his voice a little helpless: "Don't be impatient, are you still a child?"
Jian Luo felt a little ashamed, but he was thick-skinned, so he reacted quickly. After adjusting himself mentally, he raised his head and saw the scales on Lu Shifeng's neck. He remembered that they were not there before, and he also smelled a very strange smell from Lu Shifeng's body, which he had not smelled before.
Lu Shifeng noticed his gaze and frowned as well.
Jian Luo pointed to his neck: "You..."
For some reason, Lu Shifeng felt a tightness in his heart. He was not afraid when he first went into battle to kill the enemy, nor was he afraid when he first entered the Dragon Valley for training, nor was he afraid when he faced thousands of troops alone.
But now, when he looked into Jian Luo's clear eyes, he inexplicably felt a little nervous in his heart. That emotion seemed to be called - fear.
It was very strange. The Marshal himself was very aware of his reputation outside, but he never cared about it and was too lazy to pay attention to it. He had seen and heard a lot of rumors and malicious speculations. He had lived for so many years and had made some progress, so he was too lazy to pay attention to them at all.
but--
This moment
But he suddenly began to worry that Jian Luo would say something he didn't want to hear, and this would make him sad.
