The evolutionary history from a scumbag to a loyal dog

"I've been walking between the living area and here for the past two days, basically never going out... I heard that it's quite cold outside, but I'm inside, everything is OK so far."

"It is said that this year may be colder than previous years, you have to pay attention." Yan Mufeng reminded him.

"Well, I have been using the knee pads you gave me for the past few days, and they are very effective." This is what Yan Mufeng gave him last year. It is a knee pad made of special materials. It is not only very comfortable to wear, but also does not hinder his actions.

"That's good."

But Tang Yuchen's expression was always full of helplessness and bitterness.

Although his figure has never been strong, his body has always been healthy after years of exercise.Unexpectedly, it turned out to be like this now. In fact, the biggest gap in his heart is naturally himself.

Yan Mufeng seemed to be able to discern the bad mood before his eyes, and comforted him: "No matter what time it is, your body always comes first. Everyone doesn't want you to have trouble, so don't think about it so much."

Tang Yuchen knew this in his heart.

But there are some things that you can't really think about if you don't tell yourself not to think about them.

Many situations and many things are actually decided based on his physical condition.Even if he doesn't want to, the surrounding environment is also reminding him that what was clearly easy to do before is now a luxury, how can people not care about it?Don't mind?

"try your best."

"It's not impossible to try to force yourself in this regard." Yan Mufeng said.

Tang Yuchen nodded with a wry smile.

It's just that he knows that no matter how hard he tries, his body will never return to its previous state.

It was as if his body was restrained by the season of winter all of a sudden, even if he struggled hard, what he brought up was only the effect of a small stone falling on the water without a trace.

He knows that the injury on his knee cannot be cured, and he can only rely on himself to take care of it, but at least he can understand and accept it—but he suddenly became extremely weak in winter, and there is no sign at all just happened.

This was the case last winter. He fell down inexplicably, and then he had a fever and cough for more than ten days, and his head was dizzy. During the time spent in bed, at the most serious time, he couldn’t speak a word, and felt distressed and vomited blood when he moved his body—every possible examination was done, but the most advanced medical equipment couldn’t detect any problems in his body , In the end, he could only lie on the bed like this and slowly recover by his own repairing ability.

Needless to say, the body has to bear a lot of pressure, but what is even more unacceptable is the psychological pain.

When lying on the bed, Tang Yuchen felt like a useless person, unable to do anything, relying on the strength of others for everything, cowardly and pitiful.Even thinking about the scene at that time now, the despair from the beginning to the end is still clear - these make him full of fear of winter now, a fear that he dare not face, a fear that the memory will repeat itself again.

Yan Mufeng speculates that part of the reason for this may be the psychological trauma left by the avalanche when he encountered the avalanche - Tang Yuchen, who was trapped at the time, was too desperate, so desperate that his body had already remembered the cold at that time, which made him especially scared now cold winter.

But at that time, I also saw a psychologist and did psychological counseling, but it still didn't work at all.

Tang Yuchen really didn't know what to do with himself like this.

"A few days ago, a little girl was brought into the laboratory." Yan Mufeng said suddenly.

"Huh? A little girl?" It was the first time a child had entered the laboratory, and Tang Yuchen couldn't help being curious.

"Well, she is the only special case who has not been assimilated after being bitten by the living dead." Yan Mufeng said, "But she is too young, even if she can resist the invasion of the living dead virus, she still faces a huge threat." Stress, so she's not in good shape and her life is in danger at any moment."

The pain can be imagined, Tang Yuchen asked: "Then how old is she?"

"Five years old."

What a pity for such a small child.

"While we are treating her now, we are trying to find a way to resist being assimilated by the living dead from her, but now she is in a coma almost all day long, and can only soak in a cold medicine jar with an oxygen mask."

"Where are her parents?"

"Her mother is dead, and her father is a policeman." Yan Mufeng said, "He is also a member of the second team of the special operations team specially established by the police to eliminate the living dead."

"Then why was she still attacked by the living dead? I remember that the second group was quite good at eliminating the living dead, not inferior to the genetic warriors."

"I don't know." Yan Mufeng shook his head, "I only heard that her father refused to send her to the laboratory at the beginning... But it's understandable, very few parents are really willing Throwing his own child into the laboratory, after all, what we think of her is to try to find a way to resist being assimilated by the living dead from her. But then he probably understood the possibility of sending her daughter to CH01 to recover It’s bigger, I have to compromise with myself.”

This kind of dilemma is indeed difficult to make, but many parents have faced it.

"But this child is unexpectedly strong. Since coming here, she hasn't shed a single tear, and she hasn't said a single word of fear." Yan Mufeng said, "I asked her to take a kind of medicine yesterday, which is quite bitter, and most adults can take it." She couldn’t swallow it. She sniffed it and said she didn’t want to eat it, but she frowned and swallowed it in the end. Tang Shaofei felt distressed when she saw it, and asked her if she was afraid after coming here, guess how she answered?”

"How did she answer?"

"She said she was afraid, but when she thought that she could be with her father again after going out, she told herself that she must endure it." Yan Mufeng said it with a look of disbelief, "You must know, she is only five years old, and she is only five years old. Just a single-digit age kid."

Tang Yuchen suddenly thought of concubine.

In an instant, he felt that there was no need to distinguish their ages. Both of them had a strong belief that supported them to dare to confront death and seek the strength to continue to survive.

It's just that he may never see Concubine again in this life—the person who imprisoned himself and couldn't get out without someone to pick him up, and was silent all day long to the point of despair.

He still remembered that when he left, there was only one dead insect left beside her...

Because he suddenly remembered the concubine, Tang Yuchen told Yan Mufeng about his experience there without much effort.

But after all, these things are too absurd. When he said it, he couldn't believe that he had experienced it all himself, so he asked Yan Mufeng: "Is it weird? To be honest, when I think about that time now, I feel It's like I'm dreaming."

On the contrary, Yan Mufeng was quite calm: "The world is full of wonders. If time can go back ten years, I definitely can't imagine that there will be genetic soldiers and living dead in this world."

"But I thought..." He looked at Tang Yuchen and his eyes gradually became serious, "People like them who are so close to death can continue to live according to the wishes in their hearts. You should work harder to face life."

Tang Yuchen knew that Yan Mufeng was talking about himself, so he smiled slightly: "You're right, but the key is that they still have the desire to live."

Yan Mufeng asked him: "If you could leave here in the future, what would you like to do?"

"I used to want to travel and explore everywhere, but now it seems that this is impossible." He refers to his now fragile body, which can no longer accept any humid and hot climate. For him, he wants to go A place like a tropical rainforest is completely out of the question.

"Because your body has changed." Yan Mufeng stood up. "So wishes can also be changed. Some wishes don't need to be kept forever. When it's time to give up, it's right to give up. People always have to learn to be flexible."

Tang Yuchen lowered his head, thinking in his heart how easy it is to talk about everything?

It was still early when Tang Yuchen returned to the living area.

Although Yan Mufeng asked him to help, he was not really asked to do much. The rest time was about half of the working time.

But Tang Yuchen really didn't expect this time that Lu Yingchen would stand in front of the door of his living area and wait for him with a bag of things in his hand.

This was the first time they met alone since that night. When Tang Yuchen saw Lu Yingchen, Lu Yingchen was already staring at him intently——this kind of straightforward gaze made Tang Yuchen inexplicably at a loss. He just wanted to pretend that nothing happened. Seeing nothing and knowing nothing, hurry back to your room.

But he was still blocked by Lu Yingchen.

This time Lu Yingchen really stretched out his hand to stop him, not letting him go forward.

Tang Yuchen just felt a little suffocated, turned his face and said in an annoyed manner, "Get out of the way."

Lu Yingchen lifted the things in his hands a little, and when he talked to Tang Yuchen, his tone was always cautious: "...Here's this for you, I remember you used to like eating this brand of egg yolk pastry..."

Tang Yuchen glanced at it and said with a sneer, "That's what you like, I never liked it."

He didn't lie, nor did he intentionally provoke Lu Yingchen.

But he really doesn't like this brand of egg yolk shortbread. In the past, Lu Yingchen bought it often because he liked it. He just casually said that he likes it just to cooperate.
