Chapter 8【】: Are you tired?
squeak--

Lu Xun opened the door gently and walked in quietly. He kept his steps light and tried not to disturb his family's rest.

Suddenly, the lights flicked on.

Lu Xun was caught staring at a beautiful woman.

"Uh, aunt, are you still awake? It's already two o'clock in the morning." He scratched his head and laughed.

This person is his aunt Jiang Jingfei, the most gentle and virtuous woman in the world.

"After the food was heated, I put it on the table. After it cooled down, I didn't see you coming back, so I heated it up again."

She poked her nephew's chest with her finger, deliberately sullen her face, and said with a hint of anger: "Although you are young, you can't stay up late frequently, your body will collapse."

"Yeah, I'll pay attention." Lu Xun nodded and explained, "I had a major surgery today, and I had some conversations with people after the surgery, so I went home late."

Hearing this, a flash of distress and self-blame flashed in my aunt's eyes.

If it weren't for her lack of ability, why would she let a minor child become the backbone of the family?
The monthly medical expenses of more than 20 yuan deprived my nephew of his youth.

A middle school student is busier and harder than most adults.

Since the age of 14, my nephew has become a social animal...

This weight is not something he should bear at his age.

In fact, she had cruelly thought about removing her husband's oxygen tube many times to free him and make it less difficult for her and her nephew.

A monthly expense of 20 yuan is beyond the reach of some elite families!
As a civilian family, it would be wisest to extubate the patient directly.

But considering my daughter, I couldn't do it after all.

She was sad in her heart, but she controlled her emotions well and did not show it on her face. Instead, she smiled gently and said softly to her nephew:

"You must be very hungry, don't stand there stupidly, go over and eat quickly."

"Ok."

Lu Xun had actually smelled the fragrance a long time ago and was already salivating.

My aunt's cooking skills are not impressive, she can always make simple ingredients delicious!
He walked quickly to the dining table and sat down.

There are three dishes and one soup on the table: sweet and sour pork ribs, fried pork with green pepper, tomato and egg soup, and cold cucumber.

There are also a few plates of small pickles.

He filled a bowl of rice and began to devour it.

So delicious!

Especially this tomato and egg soup, it is extremely delicious and moderately salty.

After one gulp, I feel like my bones are all crispy. This dish will never make you tired of it from snack to meal.

"Eat slowly, don't choke." When my aunt saw that he looked ugly when eating, she couldn't help but joked: "Your sister is dreaming, and no one will compete with you."

"That's hard to say. Xiaoyu's nose is sharper than a dog's. What if she wakes up when she smells the fragrance?" Lu Xun said with a smile.

Auntie couldn't help but smile, that girl Xiaoyu was really greedy.

"You go and have a rest. I'll clean up after myself." Lu Xun said to her while eating, "You still have to get up early."

"It won't be long now. It's okay. I'll take care of it." Auntie waved her hand.

see.

He said no more and ate quietly.

After eating and drinking, Lu Xun wanted to help wash the dishes, but his aunt kicked him out of the kitchen on the grounds that "this is my territory, don't overstep it."

"Okay, okay, you decide your territory. By the way, aunt, this is for you."

Lu Xun laughed playfully, and while his aunt was washing the dishes, he quickly stuffed the things into her jacket pocket: "I'm so sleepy, go to bed, good night."

After saying that, he disappeared.

"You brat, I really loved you in vain when I was a kid, and you're actually playing tricks on me?"

The aunt reluctantly took off the towel to dry the water stains and foam on her hands, and reached into her pocket. She was stunned immediately and her eyes became complicated.

After a long time, she sighed quietly.

He remained silent and continued to wash the dishes.

……

The door opens.

The strong smell of medicine mixed with the stench of rotting corpses hit your face. The smell of this smell is so intoxicating that it cannot be described in words.

But Lu Xun has long been used to it.

There are pieces of equipment placed in the house.

On a fully mechanical hospital bed, there lay a man who looked like a mummy, with tubes connected to his body.

The body was wrapped like a rice dumpling with bandages, and dark pus soaked into the bandages and seeped out.

If the device display showed that he still had a heartbeat, no one would believe that this was a living person? !

He is the source of the stench.

Xie Zhenhai, Lu Xun’s biological uncle.

A man who had treated him very well.

Now it has become like this, people are not human, ghosts are not ghosts.

Xie Zhenhai is an excellent neural network engineer.

Originally, with his ability, it was not difficult to be promoted to the elite before the age of 40.

It's a pity that the weather is not beautiful.

A few years ago, he responded to the call and joined a crack-opening operation organized by Jinghaicheng's high-level officials.

The official land reclamation team was very large in size and had a luxurious lineup.

Equipped with high-end mechas, power armor, and various heavy weapons.

As a logistics technician who did not need to fight, Xie Zhenhai did not expect that he would end up like this.

When I went there, there were more than 600 people, and there was a long queue of vehicles.

Only a quarter came back... The rift is a natural phenomenon that science still cannot explain today.

They are different spaces that appear as the celestial spheres converge, and are formed by a mixture of various strange sights and phenomena.

There are all kinds of extremely precious resources from other worlds in the rift, and they are full of many magical things.

It is precisely thanks to these things that human technology has been able to advance by leaps and bounds, breaking through the upper limit again and again.

New materials, new energy, new life forms... bring a new future!
The development potential of a self-circulating city needs to be evaluated based on many factors, but "fissure resources" must be the decisive factor because it directly determines the upper limit of development.

If a city wants to develop, exploring the cracks is an inevitable step.

The problem is that the rift is not a free gift, it contains great horrors.

People need to pave the way with their lives and their bones.

Xie Zhenhai was bitten by an evil creature called "Medusa" in the crevice.

The mysterious toxin spreads throughout the body, body tissues rapidly fester, cells rapidly dissolve, bones liquefy, and skin falls off piece by piece...

If the medical staff hadn't taken action in time, he would have turned into a puddle of blood on the spot.

Although he barely managed to save his life, nerves in large areas of his body were necrotic.

Xie Zhenhai became a useless person, and all the muscles in his body lost contact with him.

He was unable to eat, excrete, breathe, speak on his own... he couldn't even blink.

Need to rely on machinery and equipment to survive.

Medusa's poison has no antidote.

It can only be inhibited with drugs to slow down the rate of cell dissolution.

Once you stop taking the medicine, it will still turn into a puddle...

Lu Xun had never seen such a miserable person in his previous life.

The key is that this person is still his uncle, or "adoptive father".

There is only one way to save Xie Zhenhai.

That’s prosthetic modification!
And it’s not about implanting one or two concepts.

Instead, all other body parts except part of the brain were replaced with artificial prostheses!
His body, except for his brain, has been completely integrated with Medusa's toxin, like a tarsal maggot, inseparable.

He can only survive as a complete human being.

Lu Xun once settled an account.

The cheapest complete modification costs more than 6000 million yuan.

But for this family, the monthly hanging fee of 20 yuan cannot be afforded.

So Lu Xun went to a black clinic when he was 14 years old.

His original plan was to save his uncle's life first.

Let’s talk about it after 6000 million, there is always hope in life!
Of course, the golden finger of the "all-knowing right hand" also gave him the courage and confidence to take charge of the family.

"Drip-"

Suddenly, the instrument beeped twice, and the electronic screen next to it suddenly lit up.

This device is connected to my uncle's brain and can automatically capture brain waves.

A line of italic characters was slowly typed on the screen——

[Is it Xiao Lu?Tsk, it’s really you.Please help me clean the camera. It's dusty and I can't see clearly. 】

"It's me, I'm sorry to disturb your rest." Lu Xun said softly.

[It’s okay, it’s nothing. What I don’t need most is rest, haha. 】

"There are some things I want to talk to you about, but I don't know where to start." Lu Xun reached out and wiped the camera for him, looking slightly hesitant.

[You can talk as much as you want, we are a family.If you are willing to speak, I am willing to listen. 】

Lu Xun was silent for a while, then suddenly asked: "Uncle, are you tired?"

【ha?How could I be tired?I just lie down and do nothing every day.When you're bored, just listen to music and read e-books. It's a good way to relax, right? 】——This sentence popped up on the monitor, with the emoticon of [proud] at the end.

In fact, Lu Xun wanted to ask him if he was tired from living?Feeling tired?Can you still persist?
"As long as you're not tired." Lu Xun nodded and said with a smile, "Just wait, at most four years, you can get a brand new body and stand up again."

In fact, the monthly hanging fee of 20 is not bad.

After all, prosthetic doctors are a hugely profitable industry!
And the better the technology, the more you earn!

Lu Xun's pressure was not too great, and he even had enough time to take care of his aunt and Xiaoyu.

But if you want to completely cure your uncle, you need to undergo a complete transformation, otherwise he will always be a useless person who can only show his existence through the subtitles on the monitor.

Earn 6000 million in four years.

It’s hard to imagine that this was said by a civilian middle school student.

But Lu Xun has this confidence.

Because he is almost an adult.

As an adult, there are too many areas for him to display his skills.

With the help of a golden finger like the "all-knowing right hand", it would be easy for him to make money.

Prosthetic doctor, appraiser, mecha pilot, mechanic... you can do whatever you want, you can do them all.

Even just relying on the value Lu Xun created for society, the whole family can be promoted to the elite class and move to the inner city!
【Four years?I see.Don't worry, the doctor said that as long as I keep taking the medicine, I can live for at least ten years. I can afford to wait for four years, hahaha. 】

"Well, the hope is great and very close. As long as you know this, our whole family is with you, don't give up." Lu Xun stood up from his chair, waved his hand to the camera and said, "You continue Rest, good night, uncle."

【Good night. 】

The monitor went off and was turned off by Xie Zhenhai on his own initiative.

Lu Xun walked out of the ward and gently closed the door.

After he left, it was a dark room.

The monitor suddenly lit up again, and text that seemed to be murmuring to himself appeared——

【…And you?Are you tired? 】
