Undying Body

When Chang Sheng woke up, he felt a dull pain in his body. The effect of the anesthetic was fading. A young man named A Ji was wiping his hands beside him. Like a benign and harmless high school student.

Chang Sheng tried to move, but found that his body was heavy, and his abdomen was put on a surgical frame, so he couldn't see what happened to his body, which made him feel even more unknown fear, "What did you do to me!"

"Science." Aji sat down beside him: "You are such a miracle." He combed the man's hair with his hands as he spoke, his movements were gentle like those of his lover.

"Don't touch me..." Chang Sheng hid to the side, the pain in his leg came over immediately, "Um..."

The burn on the leg, why is it still not healed?He vaguely thought of this question in the pain, as if he should not healed yet, is the time too short?

"Hey, talk to me," Aji said with a smile, "You must be very old, as a person who is immortal, how do you feel?"

Chang Sheng raised his hand vigorously: "I have no grievances with you, why do you do this..."

"I'm not doing it for myself," Aji said calmly, "I'm doing it for the advancement of human medicine. Researching the secrets of your body will have epoch-making significance for the entire human race. Everyone is immortal. What kind of world is it... ..."

"Following the laws of nature is the right thing!" Chang Sheng endured the pain and interrupted him. He lived for 600 years that shouldn't exist. The state of being in a state of immortality, immortal like a monster, is completely contrary to ordinary life.

"What heavenly principles, feudal superstition!" Aji looked at him with disdain, "You ordinary people, how do you understand my principles?"

"Reason?" Chang Sheng shook his head: "You don't understand the loneliness when no one is around, only you..."

"I don't need to understand that," Ah Ji sighed: "People who stand at the top are lonely. My family, teachers, friends and classmates don't understand me at all. They all say that I am wrong and that I am a lunatic. , In fact, I just want to do what others can't do." He looked down at Chang Sheng: "You say follow the law of heaven, don't I understand the laws of nature, there is only birth but no death, so the earth is not in chaos? ! However, it is because no one has ever done it before, so I want to try, hehe."

He smiled and showed two rows of white teeth, looking almost like a crazy beast.

Chang Sheng looked at him, and said for a long time: "But, I don't know why I am like this, how would you know that what you did was in vain."

"Are you worried that I won't succeed?" A Ji tilted his head: "Yes, I have analyzed it for a long time but I can't find the reason. I also know that it is difficult, but if you don't try, how will you know? Science is the process of repeated failures. If I don’t succeed in one day, I will have a month, if I don’t succeed in a month, I will have a year, if I don’t succeed in a year, I will have ten years, if I don’t succeed in ten years, I will have a lifetime, and we will be together forever, okay?”

Chang Sheng stared at him blankly, and Ah Ji smiled again: "You can say whether I am crazy or not, many people have already said it, and one more person can't say too much."

Just as he was talking about the sound of footsteps coming from outside the door, Chang Sheng moved his body, and Ah Ji immediately held him down: "Don't worry, it won't be your Young Master Du, ah, no, it's another Young Master Du."

After getting off the car, there was a wasteland in front of me, and an abandoned garage stood isolated on it, making it look even more barren.

Xiao Xia followed Du Shaobo and said, "Uncle Chang is inside?"

Du Shaobo hummed, and the two walked into the garage. There was music coming from the small room outside. Looking into the room through the window glass, a white-haired woman was stroking her long hair with her hands, and the old radio was playing music. Hoarse female voice.

"It's Auntie."

Xiao Xia just wanted to go in and Du Shaobo stopped him: "Don't disturb her, come with me."

Xiao Xia nodded, Du Shaobo walked aside again, and the two walked into a small room.

The room with simple furnishings is not so much a room as a square space separated by iron plates, and there is only a small bed inside.

"Didn't you take me to see Uncle Chang?" Xiao Xia turned her head.

"Soon, not now." Du Shaobo pointed to the bed: "Go to sleep first."

"Are you kidding me!" Xiao Xia was a little angry: "Don't waste time, I'm going to find the young master..."

He turned around and left. Du Shaobo hugged him from behind while covering his nose and mouth with his hands.

The ether-soaked handkerchief in his palm caused the boy to fall into a deep sleep without making a sound.

"Congenital heart disease is a common congenital disease, and it is not a medical problem now," A Ji said while shaking the blood sample in the test tube, "It can be big or small, some can heal by themselves, and some can't be cured. "

Du Shaobo said with a gloomy face, "The key point."

"Xiao Xia is a cardiovascular malformation caused by abnormal heart development. It may be due to the loss of some tissues in the ventricle or atrium." A Ji shook his head: "The equipment here is limited, and it can only be checked to this extent. The specific situation requires a large hospital." Only then can we be sure, but the success rate of heart surgery in large hospitals, especially after adulthood, is not high. Fortunately, Dr. Ji is here, and there is this miracle..." He looked down at Chang Sheng, "What are you afraid of?"

Chang Sheng was injected with a sedative. He was conscious, but unable to move or make a sound.

"What are you going to do?" Du Shaobo asked.

A Ji smeared the blood sample on a glass slide, "Like your mother, the first step is to culture the tissue," he put the sample under the lens of the analysis equipment, and said while observing: "Then transplant it into his body and observe the rejection." Response..." His voice trailed off.

Du Shaobo walked over: "What's wrong?"

"Wait." Aji's voice sounded uncontrollably excited: "It's so strange!"

"What?" Du Shaobo looked at the screen in confusion.

On the screen, the two curves gradually overlapped.

"I have a brilliant idea," Aji suddenly laughed, "and I can do a wonderful experiment."

Du Shaobo was a little anxious: "Now is not the time for experiments, think about Xiao Xia's illness."

"I know, I know." Ajiman said nonchalantly.

"Be serious! You said you have an idea, how is the treatment different from my mother's?"

"Now, it's different." Aji's eyes lit up: "Do you know the meaning of this curve?"

"I'm not a medical student, but this..." Du Shaobo looked at the screen carefully: "Is this a repulsive comparison?"

Ah Ji stopped talking, "Almost, I'm relieved about Xiao Xia's affairs, you can trust me."

Du Shaobo was dubious, when the sound of something hitting the ground came from the room outside, Ajinun said: "Your mother is calling you."

"I'll go, I'll leave it to you here." Du Shaobo said as he walked out of the laboratory.

Aji watched him leave, turned around and looked at Chang Sheng: "After the sedative wears off, can we talk about your past?"

Chang Sheng closed his eyes, unwilling to look at him.

"You have lived for so many years, do you have any descendants?"

Chang Sheng closed his eyes and remained motionless.

"Well, I think there should be, so are the descendants living in modern times connected with you?"

Chang Sheng suddenly opened his eyes.

His modern descendants?

His original family had been exterminated in the early Qing Dynasty, that line had been cut off, and there would be no more modern descendants, but he still had a son, didn't he?When his wife passed away, he committed suicide and jumped into the frozen lake, sleeping for many years. After waking up, he tried to find his children and grandchildren, but the world changed, and that branch has long since moved away...

Why is this being mentioned all of a sudden now?

Suddenly he thought of that box—Xiaoxia's box with the same pattern as his longevity lock. He once carved a longevity lock with the same pattern for his son. Will the pattern be passed down... But Xiaoxia didn't know. It's not Chang, he said it was his mother's dowry box, but his mother's surname is not Chang, but what about the next generation?

Chang Sheng doesn't know why he suddenly thinks of Xiao Xia, but when he thinks of Xiao Xia's face, even though it doesn't resemble him at all, it makes him have an inexplicable sense of intimacy from the first time he saw it. Is it possible...

His thinking was interrupted here, because A Ji pinched his face: "The tranquilizer should have passed long ago with your physique, talk."

"..." Chang Sheng opened his mouth forcefully, trying to make a sound: "You mean..."

"I just did a simple comparison. The similarity is so strong that there is almost no problem with transplantation. Abo doesn't understand, but I have a background in genetics!" Aji rested his chin: "Although there is no DNA Test, but I believe in intuition more, if not at ease, I can ask my classmates to do DNA comparison..."

"Xiao Xia..." Du Shaobo said just now that he was ill.

"Congenital heart disease can be cured through surgery, provided that it is within the controllable range of human medicine," Ajibi said. "I checked him in the morning. His level of heart tissue loss is very difficult to operate in modern medicine." If it succeeds, there is a chance of recovery, but it is equivalent to winning the lottery." He squinted his eyes and looked at Chang Sheng: "You can save him."

Chang Sheng understood the imminence in his eyes, and he didn't believe in this man who repeatedly cut his body open for several days.

but……

"Even if he doesn't have that kind of relationship with you, he has known you for many years, he is very innocent, and he is only 20 years old, do you have the heart to see him like this?" A Ji suddenly smiled: "He is an ordinary person, life Only once..."

-

The methods are carried out one by one.

The police station sent a police force to search, and private detectives also dispatched across the city. Chang Sheng has a special physique. Du Shaoyan specifically ordered the search to be carried out in secret. He contacted some friends and locked Du Shaobo's mobile phone number through Xiaoxia's mobile phone. As long as his mobile phone is turned on, he can His whereabouts were found by satellite navigation, but his mobile phone was always turned off.

Du Shaoyan vaguely guessed that the activities he was carrying out now had to be carried out in a secret and remote place.

He was worried, he didn't go to the company, and he didn't care about going home. He ignored some things for a while, such as Xiaoxia's disappearance.

When a person is concentrating on one thing, it is difficult to think of people who have nothing to do with the incident, but Du Shaoyan still remembered after a few days of dizziness.

Xiao Xia didn't call him or send him a text message, which is very rare, because Xiao Xia is very concerned about Chang Sheng, and it is impossible for him not to contact him when he learns that Chang Sheng is missing.

Du Shaoyan asked someone to track Xiaoxia's mobile phone number, but it was also turned off all the time, and there was no one in his apartment building. Du Shaoyan believed that this incident had something to do with Du Shaobo. Sure enough, the surveillance video of the elevator confirmed this. When Xiao Xia and Du Shaobo got into a car, Du Shaoyan tracked the whereabouts of the car based on the video of the main traffic arterial road, so he immediately took action.

For the sake of caution, he did not invite the police to accompany him, but invited several private detectives and retired special police bodyguards to accompany him. Although the only targets identified so far are Du Shaobo and A Ji, he alone is enough to deal with it, but he does not want to cause extra trouble, and would rather make a fuss out of a molehill I also don't want any unexpected situations.

The car drove to the suburbs, and along the trajectory of Du Shaobo's vehicle, he felt that he was getting closer to Chang Sheng.

At the same time he felt more and more nervous.

What will happen... He comforted himself that nothing would happen. Chang Sheng and him had experienced several life-and-death situations together. Drowning, car accidents, kidnapping, electric shocks, fires, nothing happened, there shouldn’t be any problems, he wasn’t Ordinary people!

From a distance, he saw a vast wasteland overgrown with weeds, long and soft vines swaying in the wind, and a lonely abandoned garage loomed in the tall grass.

Du Shaoyan exhaled, he jumped out of the car, followed by bodyguards holding weapons.

He approached the garage, it was too quiet and there was no sound, only the wind passing through the whole wasteland made a hoarse wind sound as it passed through the blades of grass.

There was sweat in his palms, on his forehead, and on his back.

The iron door of the garage was rusted, and it was ajar, making it impossible to see what was inside.

It is precisely because I can't see clearly that I feel extra fear.

"Chang Sheng." He called out, no matter what, he thought he heard his voice.

Because Chang Sheng likes him, when he hears his voice calling him, he will be happy, feel at ease, know that he is here, and know that he has not given up on him.

But no one responded to him.

It's too quiet, just like Chang Sheng left without saying goodbye four years ago. In the same too quiet space, I can hear my lonely heartbeat.

No, Chang Sheng will never leave himself alone again!

Du Shaoyan quickened his speed and kicked open the half-hidden door of the garage. The sound of the door being opened vigorously sounded particularly ear-piercing at this moment.

"Chang Sheng!"

A woman said softly: "Who are you..."

Du Shaoyan followed the sound and looked over. In the small room next to the garage, a woman was huddled in the corner of the bed, looking at him timidly.

This woman originally had a beautiful face, but now Du Shaoyan can hardly recognize her, her appearance has changed too much, her long white hair is scattered on her shoulders, messy and tangled, her face that was well maintained before is full of wrinkles And scars, she was wearing a dark gray pajamas, the skin exposed by the neckline and cuffs also had purple and blue scars, and there were scars that looked like a long time ago, she looked at Du Shaoyan - the one who wanted to kill him again and again She looks like a stranger, with slender saliva dragging down the corner of her mouth, her hands are alternately protecting her body, her eyes are wary and hesitant: "Who are you..." She suddenly became emotional: "Don't hurt Shao Bo, don't hurt him..."

Du Shaoyan turned his head slightly: "Control her."

Someone rushed up from behind him immediately and grabbed the woman's shoulders.

At this time, a familiar voice came from the side: "Don't touch her."

Du Shaoyan didn't turn his head back: "So how about moving you?"

"I didn't expect you to come here so quickly," Du Shaobo stood behind him: "Let go of my mother!"

"What qualifications do you have to talk to me?" Du Shaoyan turned around and still looked at him with the same contempt as before: "If you let Chang Sheng go, I will return your mother to you."

Du Shaobo smiled: "How can you be so confident?"

"You are born with it," Du Shaoyan also laughed, "Who told you to be a bastard?"

Du Shaobo shook his head: "You are still like this, do you not care about Chang Sheng so much, or is it because of his special..."

"Shut up!" Du Shaoyan didn't want too many people to know Chang Sheng's secret, so he cleared his throat: "Exchange, you bring Chang Sheng out."

"Okay," Du Shaobo shrugged, "but not now."

Du Shaoyan shouted: "Don't play tricks!"

Du Shaobo hummed: "Really not, because he is undergoing surgery now."

"What?!" Du Shaoyan rushed over and sealed his collar: "I'll kill you!"

"Mr. Du," a detective pointed to the door at the back of the garage, "There is movement inside."

Du Shaoyan let go, he ran back, Du Shaobo stopped him: "It's not over yet..."

"Fuck you!" Du Shaoyan punched him open, and he rushed over in one breath.

The door was unlocked, and he opened it with a push.

The light was good, and he could see clearly what was inside.

The man wearing a sterile mask was still concentrating on the work at hand, without looking up, he said, "Abo will be fine soon."

"What are you doing?" Du Shaoyan was actually calm when he heard his own voice.

"Heart transplant," A Ji raised his head, "to be precise, it's a half heart transplant."
