Doomsday Drifting Begins with Shipbuilding

Chapter 98 Choice
After continuing to ask some questions about his condition, Chen Xuan asked Professor Liu Zifeng to leave.

After all, it doesn't make any sense for the old professor to stay here all the time. Many scientific research work in the camp is still waiting for him to take the lead.

And Chen Xuan himself also needs to be alone.

Ever since he was poisoned by the snake venom, he would feel a tingling pain from time to time, as if the internal organs in his body were melting, and his body became more afraid of the cold.

Lying on the bed, he looked out of the window with blank eyes, and the afterglow of the setting sun lightly reflected on his pale face.

The sunset is infinitely good, just near dusk.

What should I do?

There are only a few roads in front of my eyes now.

Either he crossed the ocean to the North Wind Plateau with his half-disabled body, and searched for the possibility of treatment there.

Either gather enough energy and risk exploding to death to advance.

Or just eat and drink well, stay comfortably in Dongji Mountain, and bet that the scientists at the camp will suddenly develop an antidote.

To be honest, after careful consideration, Chen Xuan felt that none of these three paths had great hope, and almost all of them were near-death situations.

There are only environmental differences.

Should we choose the crisis-ridden sea or the harmonious and stable land?

He still remembers the days when he was wandering on the sea. At that time, he didn't live comfortably. He sat on a bumpy boat all day long, and the scenery he saw in his field of vision was almost the same for thousands of years, except that the sea was still the sea.

Wandering all the way, helpless, can only talk to himself forever, and must be on guard against sudden accidents and dangers at any time, can not relax for a moment, because an unknown monster may appear in the next second Drag yourself into the dark abyss.

Adventure can be fun, but death isn't fun at all.

During his time in Dongji Mountain, even if things like the mutated giant python happened later, he still lived a very peaceful and comfortable life on the whole.

Planting fields every day, playing with Shuibao, working at sunrise and resting at sunset.

Someone can talk, learn novel knowledge, and share life experiences.

And as a high-income group, he has almost no pressure every day. Except for scientific research materials, he basically buys whatever he wants, and he can also be lazy when he wants to be lazy.

He even felt that if the end of the world hadn't happened, he wouldn't be as happy as he is now if he entered the society step by step.

He remembered a sentence he had read before, not afraid of death, but afraid of being uncomfortable.

Compared to being frightened at sea every day, it seems that it is not unacceptable to wait comfortably to die.

And he can also leave a whole body, and there may be a martyr's tombstone after his death, which reads: "The Tomb of the Snake Slayer Warrior Chen Xuan", which will stand forever on the top of Dongji Mountain.

Thinking of this, Chen Xuan turned over and seemed to be more energetic.

It's just a pity that he is an orphan, he doesn't have much to worry about, he is alone, and he will die when he dies, and no one may shed a tear for him.

The biggest regret is to say goodbye to the handicraft career I love.

There is also the system, and I don't know if I will be taken into the grave by myself.

He suddenly admired the people he had seen all the more now, the people who had done amazing things even though they were seriously ill.

At that time, he only felt that they were strong and brave. Now, after experiencing it personally, he really didn't know where those people got their courage and will.

Just like a deserter, many people would laugh at him for being afraid of death and cowardice, but when it comes to the real face of bloodshed and bullets, how many people can really be as brave as they say.

A gust of mountain wind blew in, making Chen Xuan feel a little bit of coolness.

He slowly sat up and closed the open window.

It has to be said that Professor Liu Zifeng's treatment is still somewhat effective.

I can feel that my body is better now, at least not as weak and weak as it was at the beginning.

Although it is definitely not as good as his normal state, if ignoring the occasional coldness and tingling sensation, Chen Xuan estimates that his current physical state is equivalent to the strength before the advanced stage.

After all, even a skinny camel is bigger than a horse.

And at this time, Xu Feng came.

Hearing the news that Chen Xuan died of poisoning soon, this man was also shocked, and rushed over immediately, but because he couldn't help, he went on to other things later.

Don't know why he's here again now.

Coincidentally, Chen Xuan also wanted to ask him something.

He has always admired Xu Feng, and he really wants to know how this brave firefighter views death.

"Brother Xu, I want to ask you something."

Chen Xuan spoke calmly.

"Ask, brother, I'll tell you whatever you want to know."

Looking at the pale Chen Xuan, Xu Feng secretly sighed in his heart.

Although he has just met this brother, after getting along these days, he still appreciates Chen Xuan's calmness and talent.

"Brother Xu, I've always been curious, are you afraid of death?"

"Although I have never been a firefighter, I know that every firefighter basically fights at the forefront of various dangers, and you were so brave in the face of such a ferocious mutant python."

"how did you do it?"

Xu Feng was taken aback by Chen Xuan's question. He didn't expect this brother to start thinking about philosophical issues when his death was imminent.

But he quickly adjusted his state and said seriously.

"Ham, brother, you think too much, how can I not be afraid of death, I'm just an ordinary person."

"A lot of times, just because of my enthusiasm, I can't care about anything at the time, and I only know the fear after thinking about it."

"But some things have to be done."

"Like when we fight the giant python, if I don't come in, everyone will die."

"Although relying on my strength alone may not be enough to protect everyone, and it is impossible for Dongji Mountain to remain peaceful forever, I believe that there will always be someone better than me to take over this responsibility, just like at the beginning. When I was a firefighter, the former captain gave me the job."

"Until then, I have to stick to my post."

"I know what I'm waiting for, so even death is worth it, it's better than living meaninglessly."

Without too much impassionedness, what Xu Feng said was very sincere.

A meaningful death?

But Chen Xuan still has a question.

"I heard that you have a younger sister, aren't you afraid that you will never see her if you die?"

Hearing this, Xu Feng suddenly fell silent.

I saw a rare trace of sadness appearing on this man's face.

"Of course I'm scared. Xiaoqing is my only family member. I don't know if she's doing well in Beifeng Plateau. Is she still alive?"

"Maybe in this life... I will never see her again."

Xu Feng then smiled wryly again.

"But there is no way, who said that now is the end of the world..."

"That's why I hope that those whose families are with them can live and go back to see the people they miss."

Looking at Xu Feng with a bitter face, Chen Xuan suddenly felt that this tough guy had paid too much. He was equivalent to someone who carried the entire camp on his back.

Xu Feng sacrificed all of himself in exchange for other people's years of tranquility.

But he himself was separated from his sister. If he hadn't come to the rescue last time, they might never see each other until their death?

A man like him shouldn't end up like this.

Chen Xuan asked suddenly.

"Brother Xu, what would you do if you had less than fifteen days to live?"

"I think I'll be willful for a while."

"I will go all out and cross to the North Wind Plateau. Although I don't know if I can succeed, but..."

"I just hope to see Xiaoqing again at the end of my life."

Xu Feng said solemnly.
