Unharmed

In the chaotic and noisy street, the crowd surrounded the family of three who fell in the middle of the road and discussed:

"It's such a pity that the child is still so young..."

"I think the driver is drunk and driving! You smell this place, it smells like alcohol!"

"Come on, the ambulance is coming! Maybe the child can be saved!"

Outside the crowd, a boy was holding the hand of an old man, tilting his head and looking at the scene of the car accident.The old man tugged at the boy's hand, "Let's go, there's nothing to see here."

The boy nodded obediently, held the old man's hand tightly, and walked away from the street in three steps.

"Professor, Professor Xia?" The young assistant in a small dress gently pushed the teacher beside him.

Xia Wuyang slightly opened his eyes, the glasses on the bridge of his nose were already hanging on the tip of his nose, he looked at the little assistant with a somewhat confused look

"Professor, now it's your turn to be announced for the awards you have been nominated for." The little assistant was a little excited, "Your project will definitely win this time!"

Xia Wuyang pushed his glasses and said nothing, but recalled the family of three in the dream just now. This scene is already a memory of 20 years ago. At that time, he was shopping with his grandfather and suffered a lot of injuries due to mischievous wrestling. When being scolded by grandpa, the family of three had a car accident beside them.The young couple died on the spot, and a four or five-year-old child fell to the ground showing pain, but kept looking at him.At that time, I always felt that the child was asking for help, but the wound was too severe to speak.Later, Grandpa was afraid that he would have a psychological shadow, so he dragged him away from the scene. Later, the news said that all three of them died.

In fact, this incident had a big impact on Xia Wuyang.Because the day the news was broadcast, he determined to be a medical worker!Maybe it's the child's painful eyes. Pain...is always something that people can't face.Only by becoming a doctor can we help more people avoid the suffering caused by pain...

"Professor Xia, are you feeling well?" Seeing that the professor was contemplating again, the little assistant thought to himself that Professor Xia has been doing research recently and has been lacking in sleep. There is a party, I am afraid that my health will not be able to bear it, so I said with concern: "How about I call a car for you, and I will take you home to rest."

"No, I'm fine." Xia Wuyang interrupted the assistant's concern.

The little assistant didn't dare to say anything more, so she continued to quietly listen to the host's predictions about the award.

"Then now, we invite a guest—Professor Yu to announce this year: Who will receive the Outstanding Medical Contribution Award!"

At the banquet at midnight, Xia Wuyang smiled again and watched the people who came to congratulate him for winning the award, and then carrying the wine with some fatigue, he went to the small garden outside the house.

"I wonder if Professor Xia has time to chat." A man in a black shirt suddenly appeared behind Xia Wuyang.Although it was a question, the flat and statement tone showed that the other party was not the same as the previous people, who came to congratulate him for winning the Outstanding Contribution Award.This aroused Xia Wuyang's curiosity instead.

"It depends on what we're talking about." Xia Wuyang turned around, holding a wine glass, leaning on the stone pillar in the garden and observing the man in front of him.

"It's a major matter of saving lives and healing the wounded." The man ignored Xia Wuyang's slightly provocative eyes. Instead, he found an empty chair and sat down confidently. all right.

"Healing the wounded and saving lives is my job. There is nothing to talk about." Xia Wuyang didn't move at all, but he felt vaguely in his heart that what the other party wanted to say might not be a simple matter.

Seeing this, the man withdrew his open hand, then took off a flower beside him and put it in front of him, "Professor Xia, look at this plant, I picked this flower out of curiosity, do you think the body of this plant will Will it be very painful?"

"Yes, plants release ethylene to express pain, and there is also allelopathy to tell surrounding plants."

"That's it, it's really cold knowledge." The man was not embarrassed, but chuckled," but it will still grow flowers. After all, it is a flower itself. There is a saying that wildfire cannot burn. Let the spring breeze blow and regenerate."

“What are you trying to convey? I don’t like going around in circles.”

"I heard that Professor Xia has been working on how to reduce the pain caused by diseases. I wonder if you are interested in studying how to make people heal and even regenerate like plants while reducing pain?"

"Only people with supernatural powers have the ability to regenerate, and ordinary people cannot have it. This is something that children know. With all due respect, research in this area is meaningless." Xia Wuyang was a little disappointed, this conversation was meaningless, the other party I'm afraid it's just a lunatic looking for trouble.

"Why did Professor Xia deny it so quickly!" The man took out a stack of photos from his pocket and put them on the empty seat of the chair, "Why don't you read the photos first?"

Xia Wuyang frowned, walked to the bench suspiciously, picked up the photo and glanced at it, then looked up at the man, "How do I know if this is true or not? Nowadays, with advanced technology, image stitching is very common."

"This requires mutual trust," the man patted the empty seat next to him confidently again.But this time, Xia Wuyang sat down without hesitation, put the photo back into the man's hand, and signaled the man to finish speaking with his chin slightly on the stage.

"This is the latest research success of our laboratory, and it is [-]% true. It's just that the pain in it is very unbearable, and many volunteers couldn't survive the initial pain period. That's why we need the help of outstanding talents like Professor Xia. They survived the painful period safely and regained a new life. This is not only the happiness of the volunteers, but also the request of the government, and the gospel of all mankind, isn’t it?”

"You work for the government?" Xia Wuyang was taken aback, a little uncertain, "Is this an experimental project of the government?"

The man smiled but did not answer, "I wonder if Professor Xia is interested?"

Xia Wuyang's dream is to relieve pain through medical means, and now the news of self-healing brought by the man is true, that is simply the icing on the cake.So I nodded, "Yes, what do I need to do?"

The man took out another white card with only one line of small characters written on it, "We meet here in three days, you don't need to bring anything, just come, just don't tell the third person." After finishing speaking, the man patted Xia With a healthy shoulder, he got up and left the garden.
