Little Cold Star (14)
Because of the battle with the butterfly-faced man, Shi Jianxia's strength was exhausted, and all the mimics returned to the "Classic of Mountains and Seas".
She could no longer use mimicry to locate herself, and the blizzard grew heavier and heavier. Eventually, she lost her way in the vast white world and barely found an abandoned building to hide in.
Fortunately, Chao Chao and Yan Qing had already moved to a safe military base in advance. They had enough supplies, and Chang Xi also brought the security robots from the twin towers, so their safety was guaranteed for a short time.
After moving the two people, who were as heavy as pigs, down from the aircraft, Shi Jianxia didn't care about the dirt on the ground and sat down directly, taking several breaths.
She sat down and rested for a while. After she had recovered a little, she took out the medical robot from the space bracelet and checked their physical condition.
Gongye Jiwang was also exhausted. He even controlled the power of stars that was far beyond his current level, which caused his spiritual power to dry up and his body to be overloaded and suffer internal injuries.
The healing potion that Shi Wu Yu gave him was very effective, but there was a level gap between the two of them, so it could only barely control his injuries and prevent them from worsening, but it could not provide further treatment.
Number Nine's condition was slightly better than his, but he also suffered serious internal injuries, and his face was slightly pale, which was very different from his usual arrogant appearance.
After Shi Jianxia got the diagnosis results from the medical robot, he rummaged through his space bracelet and found several bottles of healing potions. He drank one first.
The effect was not as good as Shi Wu Yu's medicine, but it was quite effective in treating internal injuries. So he pinched Gongye Jiwang and No. 9's chins and gave each of them a bottle.
After doing all this, her hands were frozen stiff and hard, and she could hardly stretch them. She took out a few first-level insect crystals and mixed them with flammable materials found in the abandoned building to start a fire.
The flames crackled and a warm atmosphere gradually spread. Shi Jianxia glanced at the two people lying unconscious on the ground and thought that he really owed them in his previous life.
Without the mimicry-controlled energy flame to keep warm, sleeping like this will sooner or later cause the cold to enter the body and make you sick and have a fever.
Shi Jianxia never thought that he would have to survive in the wild one day, so naturally he did not have any spare tents, sleeping bags or other portable items. When he left his place, Gongye Jiwang took his things back, and now he could only get them from his space bracelet.
She sighed resignedly, walked to Gongye Jiwang, silently chanted "Don't look at what is inappropriate", held his space bracelet, and looked for the sleeping bag they had used on the first day they landed on Xiaohan Star.
Gongye Jiwang's space bracelet was very large, and should be the highest specification sold on the market. It was neatly organized, and every item was placed in its own category. Shi Jianxia was embarrassed to look at it for too long, and took it out immediately after finding the sleeping bag.
After laying out the sleeping bags, Shi Jianxia grunted and moved them inside.
When it was Number Nine's turn, she hummed softly and kicked his calf, "I'll freeze you to death."
No one answered.
After stuffing Number Nine into the sleeping bag, Shi Jianxia was in trouble.
She is not a soft-hearted person. According to the current situation, the best option is to get rid of Gongye Jiwang, gain the trust of No. 9, and continue to maintain her identity as the holder of the Jade Card of Higanbana No. 7.
But she really couldn't bring herself to harm an innocent person with whom she had been in trouble.
If she killed Number Nine, she would be betraying his friendship by coming to Xiaohan Star alone to find her today and even saving her life at the critical moment.
Shi Jianxia sighed with a headache.
These two people really gave her a difficult time. They fainted and the matter was settled, but she had to think over and over again about how to deal with the subsequent issues.
It would be great if she could persuade Number Nine to rebel, but judging from his evasive attitude just now, it was obvious that he was not so easily persuaded.
Shi Jianxia thought carefully about everything related to Number Nine.
When he appeared as Jiang Jiuhan, his apparent mimicry talent was that of a water angel, and his potential level was only B. Apart from his identity as the marshal's grandson, he could be said to be unremarkable.
In fact, his mimicry is that of an SS-level Ice Sea Angel, and his combat power is so strong that it can be compared with Gongye Jiwang. If Marshal Jiang Wenzhan knew about this talent, there is no reason for him not to value him.
If he was not truly loyal to the doctor, he could have revealed all his past experiences and cooperated with Marshal Jiang Wenzhan to deal with the red spider lily.
The doctor must also know this, but why was he able to let him go home without worry? Was he confident that the Jade Plate could control him?
It shouldn’t be that simple.
When the doctor deals with her, he has to use her father as a threat in addition to the Jade Token. There is no reason for him to be so confident in Number Nine, who comes from a prominent family.
Number nine.
Jiang Jiuhan.
What is his weakness?
Perhaps because of exhaustion or because the sleeping bag was too warm, Shi Jianxia fell asleep in a daze while thinking.
In a trance, she seemed to have a dream.
In the dream, a little boy in a lab coat was lying in a treatment cabin with tubes inserted all over his body.
He had a pair of very beautiful eyes, but his obsidian pupils stared lifelessly at the ceiling. His breathing was so weak that his breath was not even noticeable on the oxygen mask.
A cold and indifferent voice sounded, "Doctor, the mimicry transformation of Experiment No. 9 has failed. It is recommended that it be sent to the recycling station."
A slender white hand rested on the thin cover of the treatment cabin, tapping its index finger rhythmically. The dazzling emerald green diamond-shaped crystal on the fingertip was glowing faintly.
"What a pity. Let's send it over then." The deep voice expressed regret but with a faint smile.
After Shi Jianxia finished speaking, she felt a gaze falling on her from above. She did not look up, but stared at the little boy who was still staring at the ceiling, not knowing what he was thinking.
Amidst several puzzled and surprised looks, she walked to the front of the treatment cabin, stood on tiptoe and half-leaned over, and asked, "What are you thinking about?"
The little boy seemed to have heard what she said. He turned his eyes slightly and looked over, meeting her eyes.
He was too weak to speak, or perhaps he didn't want to say anything. He just looked at her, as if he didn't know what life and death were.
Seeing Xia being looked at like this, she raised her head and met the doctor's interested gaze, and said coldly: "I want him."
Through the mask, the doctor raised his eyebrows slightly, "I don't have any free products here, what do you have in exchange?"
Clang——
There was a crisp sound, and Shi Jianxia suddenly opened his eyes. He was caught off guard to see Number Nine sitting on Gongye Jiwang through the sleeping bag, with his handcuffed hands raised high, as if he was about to hit him.
She was confused for a moment, then immediately sobered up. She didn't care that she was still lying in her sleeping bag. She sat up and shouted sharply, "Bai Xiaojiu! What are you doing?"
Number Nine's hands, which were about to strike down, stopped in the air. Time seemed to stand still at this moment. The burning fire made a crackling sound, crisp and loud.
The building was eerily quiet.
After a few long seconds, Number Nine glared fiercely at Gongye Jiwang, whose face was pale but he slightly curled his lips at him, then quickly got up and crawled into his sleeping bag to pretend to be dead.
Shi Jianxia: "..."
She crawled out of the sleeping bag and looked at Gongye Jiwang first. There was a small cut on the corner of his mouth, which was a little red. It was obvious that he had been beaten before the punch just now.
Shi Jianxia was instantly furious. He quickly walked over to Number Nine's sleeping bag, looked at the large bulge inside, and kicked his calf without hesitation. "I'm asking you a question, why are you playing dead?"
Number Nine, who had been kicked, shrank his legs and wanted to continue playing dead, but was kicked again by Shi Jianxia. He could not pretend anymore and pulled down his sleeping bag, pointed at Gongye Jiwang, and said with a sour face: "He was the one who took off my mask first? I didn't kill him because I was giving you face! Don't act so arrogant in front of me!"
His black hair, which had returned after the mimic fusion battle, stood up in anger, and his dark blue pupils were obviously very cold, but they seemed to be about to spit fire.
Shi Jianxia glanced at the silver mask that had fallen beside Gongye Jiwang's sleeping bag, crossed his arms and said, "I took off your mask, it's in the way."
When she was moving this guy, she was hit by his mask, so she took it off.
Number Nine: “…”
"Then why was he holding my mask when I woke up?" He asked loudly, his eyes filled with 'You actually took the blame for him just to protect him?'
When she saw Xia Wu Yu, she wanted to throw him outside to sober up.
Gongye Jiwang's gentle voice came over, "I thought the mask was beautiful, so I picked it up and took a closer look. I'm sorry I didn't explain it in time, which caused the misunderstanding."
After finishing this short speech, he covered his chest and coughed twice, looking very weak.
Number Nine looked at his miserable state and said two words expressionlessly: "Hypocrisy."
Just as he finished speaking, Shi Jianxia kicked him in the calf again, and two words were slapped on his forehead, "Shut up."
Number Nine was furious. "Why did you kick me and not him?"
"Look at you cute."
Shi Jianxia threw out four words perfunctorily, squatted down in front of Gongye Jiwang's sleeping bag, frowned and checked his physical condition.
Several hours passed, and his spiritual power source was still exhausted. His physical injuries were slowly recovering under the effect of the potion, but the effect was not obvious.
Gong Yeji saw her frown and smiled reassuringly, "Don't worry, I'm just exhausted. It's nothing serious. Just get more rest."
"Do you still have the medicine that Shi Wuyou gave you?" Shi Jianxia asked.
Gongye Jiwang shook his head.
Shi Wu Yu's potion is very effective and cannot be compared with ordinary potions. Gongye Jiwang's current condition should be treated as soon as possible. If the spiritual power spring is exhausted for too long and the foundation is damaged, it will affect the future improvement of the mimicry, which will not be worth the loss.
Shi Jianxia thought for a moment, then turned to look at Number Nine, who had been sealed in place by her words "Look at you, you're so cute," and poked his arm. "Give me some of Number Four's healing potion."
Number Nine said "oh" in confusion and casually took out a few bottles of medicine for her.
Shi Jianxia accepted it without hesitation, and then thought of the lifeless little boy in his dream who looked like a doll, so he pressed down the few strands of hair on his head.
Number Nine was completely stunned, staring at her back in disbelief. He waited until she handed the potion to Gongye Jiwang before he sat up like a ghost, "You gave this potion I spent so much money on to this bastard?!"
Gongye Jiwang gulped down the spicy potion that made his throat burn, turned around and said with a smile, "Thank you for the potion, Xiaojiu."
Number Nine: “…”
Damn! What did you call me, you bastard?
Before he could make a move, Gongye Jiwang took out a one-cubic-meter storage box from his space bracelet, with cold blue eighth-level insect crystals piled high inside.
Shi Jianxia's eyes were fixed.
Gongye Jiwang's tone was gentle and tolerant. "These are ice-attribute insect crystals. You should be able to use them. I'm giving them to you."
