Seeing that she was still hesitating, Li Xi pulled her out of the community and said, "Doesn't medicine say that occasional bloodletting is good for the body? Let's go to the hospital, and I'll treat my bloodletting as blood donation."
Xinghe nodded, took a deep breath. Since he had said so, what was there for her to hesitate about?
When it's time to make a decision, make a decision decisively; good cooperation is what should be done.
After all, there are still many people waiting for them to rescue.
The nearest hospital to this neighborhood is on the same road they came from; it's not far from here.
Li Xi only glanced at it before memorizing it.
The hospital was deserted; it was eerily quiet.
The two of them weren't afraid and walked in with normal expressions.
Xinghe was quite familiar with the hospital, and led Lixi to the blood testing department. They walked along another corridor and saw several rooms with labels on them.
The two went into one of the blood-drawing areas, and Xinghe went to find the necessary supplies for the blood draw.
Li Xi walked to the chair and sat down naturally.
"Xiao Jie, I've been here for so long and smelled a lot of poisonous gas, but I'm fine. Can I use my blood?" Xinghe was still unwilling to give up and hoped that he could have a chance to replace Li Xi.
"You're alright only because I protected you with my spiritual power, preventing the poison from penetrating you. You're an outsider soul, not like Li Xi, cursed and sent here as a cheat code. Your blood can't cure the poison, give up." The ring shattered her illusions without hesitation. "You can give him more nourishment in the future. What kind of man doesn't shed some blood and sweat?"
Xinghe was both amused and exasperated.
In the end, a bag of blood was drawn from Li Xi.
Before entering the department to conduct research, Xinghe handed Lixi a piece of paper and told him what he should pay attention to.
Li Xi remembered it, and only then did she feel at ease going inside.
She believed that Fifth Gentle wouldn't come to stop her at this time, because the demonic poison had already almost caused Li Xi to transform. If he appeared again, then Li Xi's transformation would be inevitable.
At that point, it won't be such a troublesome matter as researching an antidote; it will be something that Li Xi can solve with a wave of her hand.
How could they so easily neutralize all the demonic poison that Fifth Gentle had painstakingly created?
So he definitely won't come.
Li Xi left the hospital with the piece of paper Xinghe had given her.
Once Xinghe started her research, she became completely absorbed in it. Whether it was day or night outside, or whether she was hungry or tired, was completely out of her consideration.
Li Xi knew what kind of person she was, so he would come back around mealtimes to bring her some nutritious food. Although he didn't understand why she was like him and not afraid of the poison, it made things very convenient for him, as he didn't have to worry about what to feed her.
The invisibility effect on them was lifted by the next day. Li Xi was no longer wearing goggles, but he didn't remove them from Xinghe's face. At this point, it was best for him to disturb her as little as possible.
On the morning of the third day, Xinghe figured out the formula.
Then she mixed in Li Xi's blood, experimenting with the formula ratio little by little.
Finally, after more than fifty attempts, she successfully produced the antidote.
Xinghe was overjoyed. He simply told Lixi and then hurried to manufacture pills in batches.
Li Xi found her a small bottle for cold medicine and put the pills in it. After all, she didn't have much blood, and with the medicine being concentrated, there wasn't much left.
Xinghe quickly made the pills, put them in a bottle and handed them to Lixi, then took off the watch from her wrist and handed it to him.
"Li Xi, I'm entrusting this to you. Make sure to place it in all the water sources in the city. You can see the demonic poison, and you'll be able to see the range of the antidote from a single pill."
"Don't worry, once you wake up, the whole city will be safe and sound."
Hearing his assurance, Xinghe nodded, closed her eyes, and fell asleep; she was simply too tired.
Li Xi carried her to a hospital bed and covered her with a blanket. Then he took out an invisibility spray and another high-tech device. He was really worried about her safety after he left; even if no one was here, he couldn't guarantee that the monster wouldn't find their way back.
After making Xinghe invisible and adding a protective shield, Li Xi put both goggles on her body.
Time waits for no one. Li Xi took out the pen-shoe flying aid she had rushed to make in the past two days, changed into the shoes, and ran out.
The dean and his colleagues discovered that Li Xi and Xing He had run away from the Academy of Sciences the next day.
The dean admired the two of them for managing to escape unnoticed despite the heavy security, but he was also worried about their safety.
He informed the State Council about their escape and then sent some guards from the Academy of Sciences to search for them.
They haven't found it even after two or three days. The State Council has almost dispatched three special police units, and they are extremely anxious.
The senior members of the Academy of Sciences were also on tenterhooks. Although they hadn't spent much time together, they genuinely admired these two hopefuls of the physics community.
Li Xi dared not stop. He ran all day, covering the entire city, and threw every single antidote into the water source.
The whole city started to get better.
When biologists were working themselves to the bone and almost lost all their hair, they miraculously recovered.
Those who were quarantined, those who were severely infected, are all recovering.
Even though some of them were so thin they were unrecognizable, you could still see that the deathly aura around them was slowly fading away.
The entire city, shrouded in the aura of death, seemed to be infused with new life.
Li Xi didn't go to see the results; he knew the outcome, and he trusted Xinghe.
He rushed back to the hospital and saw Xinghe lying safely in bed. He breathed a sigh of relief, slid down to the floor, and gasped for breath, letting the sweat that soaked his body flow down his skin.
He laughed, "Now I finally know what it feels like to be completely exhausted."
That night, Li Xi sat on the ground all night, slowly recovering her strength.
The next morning, Li Xi found a clean white coat at the hospital, took a shower, and came out feeling refreshed.
At this moment, Xinghe, who had slept for a day and a night, woke up.
Sitting on the bed, I watched him walk out of the bathroom, swinging his legs and laughing.
When Li Xi saw that she had woken up, she smiled too. Seeing that she was alright was better than anything else.
"What are you grinning about? Take off the protective shield. I need to take a shower and eat something. I'm starving." Xinghe rubbed her stomach.
"I'll get it for you right away. What would you like to eat?" Li Xi opened the protective shield for her.
Xinghe jumped out of bed and came over. "Fried chicken and hamburgers are definitely out of the question. Let's get some porridge and canned food. We can't hide our escape from them for long. Now that we've rescued people, we need to get back quickly."
"Hmm." Li Xi understood. When he went out to deliver the pills yesterday, he saw many plainclothes special police officers looking for them. If he hadn't been holding the invisibility spray, they would have found them.
