"What is that?" Qiu Ling asked curiously.

Wu Yan explained: "It's a control ring. If the soldier is too violent, the medical staff can use the control ring to give him electric shock stimulation, causing him to enter a short coma, thereby blocking the chaotic release of mental power..."

Qiu Ling had watched TV series, especially the period films about ancient blue planets. In the TV series, people had no special powers, but earned their future and status through hard work and wisdom.

There are also mental hospitals inside, but they are places where mentally ill people receive treatment and recuperation, which is different from here. It seems to be just as cruel, dark, and violent!

"General Wu, I'm not sick... I'm really not sick, let me out..." Some soldiers had an unbearable headache and almost grimaced, and shouted excitedly after seeing Wu Yan.

Wu Yan looked sideways and saw that the protective suit blocked the intrusion of mental power from outside, and also blocked the release of their mental power.

"General Wu, the treatment process is quite painful. Without the assistance of electric shock and medicine, they would have become zombies long ago. However, their condition is sometimes good and sometimes bad, and it is not stable. They will wake up occasionally. It must be that this soldier saw you coming and was greatly stimulated, so he woke up... But you see, his mental strength is almost on the verge of collapse, and he has an unbearable headache..."

Xu Mei shook her head and sighed with compassion. At the same time, the red light on the metal ring on the soldier's neck lit up, and there was a slight crackling sound of electric current. The soldier who had been shouting just now trembled all over, and then he sat straight on the ground without moving.

Qiu Ling had a cold expression and remained silent, following the two of them all the way.

Xu Mei carefully reported the situation here to Wu Yan, including who had worsened conditions and was transferred in, who had better conditions and was transferred to the general ward, and so on.

Wu Yan walked slowly holding Qiu Ling's hand, and he didn't know how much he heard.

Qiu Ling suddenly felt that breathing was a little difficult, and he looked inward with his spiritual sense, and found that he was only paying attention to the situation of the soldiers in each iron cage, but forgot about the hidden dangers of the protective clothing.

The bag storing liquid oxygen was punctured by an extremely thin and short needle as she walked. The oxygen flowed silently along the wall of the protective suit, reacted with some unknown substance, and was consumed rapidly in large quantities.

She stumbled and was supported by Wu Yan. "What's wrong with Lingling?"

Qiu Ling looked at Xu Mei. At this moment, the smile of triumph in Xu Mei's eyes could hardly be concealed inside the protective suit.

"It's okay. My liquid oxygen bag was punctured," Qiu Ling said calmly, "and the oxygen has turned into powder. My clothes are full of carbon dioxide!"

Wu Yan's face changed and he hurried to check the value of her protective suit. Sure enough, the value of liquid oxygen storage was zero.

He was about to take off his protective suit and give it to her without a second thought, but Qiu Ling stopped him. "It's okay, I can just hold my breath, but you, your body may not be able to take it."

Qiu Ling turned his head to look at Xu Mei, who was also pulling at her protective suit. "I'm sorry, Madam Qiu, it's the negligence of our hospital staff! These grassroots workers, who receive similar salaries every month, tend not to work hard. This protective suit should be checked every few days, and when we rent it, they are also obliged to check it again.

I was also worried about them, so I prepared everything, but I never thought that they would actually be needed.

However, before entering the building, General Wu checked Mrs. Qiu's bag of liquid oxygen. He never thought that it would be worn out after such a short walk...

It's our fault. No matter what, you should wear mine first!"

She seemed to have made up her mind, and she slowly closed her eyes, took off her protective suit bit by bit, and trembled all over, looking scared and great.

Qiu Ling said nothing and waited for Xu Meizhen to take off the protective suit.

Wu Yan, who was beside her, was still staring at her expression closely. Once she showed any symptoms of discomfort, he would quickly change into protective clothing. He had no energy to pay attention to others.

No one stopped her, and Xu Mei felt a little embarrassed. Anyway, she couldn't take off the protective suit, in case she was really affected by the mental power of these soldiers!

"Sister-in-law, since you don't want to change into protective clothing..." Xu Mei just started talking when she was interrupted by Qiu Ling.

"Why are you unwilling? I think you are just pretending and you don't dare to really take off the protective suit to me," Qiu Ling pointed out bluntly.

Xu Mei hurriedly explained: "That's not the case. I saw that you didn't seem to be affected. How about we go out first?"

"Are you disappointed that I was not affected?" Qiu Ling smiled. "I am indeed disappointed. I was delayed for a few minutes. Even if I didn't die from lack of oxygen, I would have become a fool and been locked up in your hospital. But now I am still standing here in good spirits. It's because I am blessed by God.

"It's you," Qiu Ling shook his head and said, "Don't you feel it's hard to breathe? Hey, my physical condition is special, so I'm not afraid of these. I just don't know if Dr. Xu Mei's body can still function normally in an environment lacking oxygen?"

Xu Mei was stunned for a moment, and had a bad guess in her heart: "You, what did you do to me?"

"I didn't do anything. I just thought that our protective suits were placed together, and I was afraid that what I went through would happen to you as well. Isn't this just a kind reminder to you?" Qiu Ling smiled and said tactfully, refusing to admit that he had done anything.

Xu Mei lowered her head to look at the display screen outside the protective suit. There was indeed a problem with the data on oxygen storage capacity!

At this moment, her face turned terrified, and she grabbed Wu Yan and cried, "General Wu, save me! The oxygen bag in my protective suit is also broken..."

Wu Yan picked up Qiu Ling and walked out, "Then follow me!"

Qiu Ling and Xu Mei did not avoid him during their conversation, so Wu Yan finally understood that all this was most likely Xu Mei's doing.

Now Xu Mei is reaping the fruits of her own action.

Xu Mei knew too well that Wu Yan was impartial and just, so she didn't dare to ask for anything. She could only follow him quickly, feeling very aggrieved.

When she reached the door, Xu Mei only had the last bit of strength left. She pushed aside her hood and took big greedy gulps of air. She felt dizzy and weak, and she passed out with her eyes closed.

Qiu Ling shrugged at Wu Yan and whispered, "Some people can't afford to play, can't win, but still want to play."

Wu Yan glanced at Xu Mei with a cold expression. He had never known that Xu Mei, a doctor, would actually plot against his wife in front of him, using insidious and cruel means.

How did she become a doctor and why did she become a doctor!

Wu Yan touched Qiu Ling's hair, "Ling Ling, are you really not feeling bad?"

Xu Mei's mental strength is pretty good, so she is quite professional in medicine and is able to enter this hospital which has extremely high requirements for its employees.

Even though she had fallen down, Wu Yan was still worried because his wife, who had discovered before Xu Mei that her oxygen was exhausted, was still alive and kicking.
