The ward was very quiet, and the only sound was the beeping of the instruments.

Jiang Zhi felt a splitting headache, his consciousness was struggling with his body, and he finally opened his eyes.

There was a sea of ​​white in front of him. Jiang Zhi blinked and realized that he was in the ward, but he couldn't move.

Jiang Zhi glanced sideways and saw Bian Shi lying on the edge of the bed. He seemed to be sleeping soundly.

"Bian..." As soon as Jiang Zhi opened his mouth, he felt a stinging pain in his throat, as if being pricked by a needle. He finally moved his hand and touched the broken hair on his forehead.

Bian Shi opened his eyes vigilantly and instantly raised his hand to hold Jiang Zhi's hand.

Seeing that it was Jiang Zhi who woke up, the coldness in Bian Shi's eyes disappeared in an instant and was replaced by surprise.

"Jiangzhi, you finally woke up." Bian Shi hurriedly pressed the call bell on the bedside, then stood up helplessly and moved to his side.

"Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere? Is there anything wrong with your body?"

Jiang Zhi blinked tiredly, and motioned to Bian Shi to help him up, but he was stunned the next second.

"What is this?" Jiang Zhi's voice was extremely hoarse. Fortunately, Bian Shi was very close, so he could hear clearly what he said.

Bian Shi lowered his eyes to glance at Jiang Zhi's face and said softly, "It's a bite stopper. You were scratched by a zombie, so you have to wear this thing to avoid any accidents."

Jiang Zhi nodded, as if he was too tired to speak. He just looked at Bian Shi silently, not willing to look away for even a second.

Bian Shi had been waiting to see when the doctor would arrive. He caught sight of Jiang Zhi's movements from the corner of his eye. He reached out and squeezed Jiang Zhi's hand, explaining, "You've been unconscious for two days, and you've had a high fever all this time. If you don't wake up, your father will force you to undergo surgery."

Speaking of surgery, Bian Shi was horrified. "Did you know he wanted your glands? You were injured and unconscious, and he didn't even care about your safety and wanted to do it directly."

Jiang Zhi closed his eyes. He really had nothing to say to Jiang Xiao.

Just at this moment, footsteps were heard outside the ward.

Feng Niqian hurried over, followed by Wu Yanlu.

At Feng Niqianshi's instruction, Wu Yanlu went forward to examine Jiang Zhi. He was wearing a white coat and looked very professional.

"How is it?" Bian Shi asked him anxiously.

Wu Yanlu's face didn't look good. He turned around and looked at Bian Shi, then looked at Feng Niqian and shook his head.

Feng Niqian's expression changed instantly, "Isolate him as soon as possible."

Before Bian Shi could react, Jiang Zhi was about to be pushed away. He quickly stopped him, "What's going on? You need to tell me."

"The virus in him is spreading. If he is not isolated, the consequences will be disastrous." Before Feng Ni finished speaking, she signaled to push Jiang Zhi away quickly.

Jiang Zhi's expression was calm, as if he was not disturbed by the outside world.

He looked at Bian Shi quietly, his fingers moved, as if he wanted to touch him one last time, but finally stopped.

"How are the team that went on the mission with me?"

Unexpectedly, Jiang Zhi started to express his concern for other people's safety. Bian Shi was a little stunned and jogged behind the bed.

Feng Niqian paused for a moment before saying, "They were all bitten to death by zombies. Their bodies have been cremated. Only one Chuanmu is left. He is now injured in the isolation ward."

Jiang Zhi lowered his eyes to hide the overflowing emotions in his eyes, but his entangled fingers still betrayed his mood.

Bian Shi rushed forward, "Jiang Zhi, don't let your imagination run wild. Those soldiers were fighting for their home planet. The situation was too critical at the time. It's not your fault..."

Jiang Zhi didn't say anything, just looked at Bian Shi coldly.

Bian Shi was slightly stunned, not understanding why Jiang Zhi looked at him like that.

"Do you think you have no responsibilities? Don't let me see you again."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Zhi and the medical staff disappeared into the wall.

Bian Shi was stopped outside the wall. He reached out and touched it, but there was only a wall in front of him.

"Another passage, Kawame is really amazing." Bian Shi sneered. There were such express passages everywhere in the base, but unfortunately he didn't have the authority and couldn't pass through.

He felt a weight on his shoulders and turned around to see Wu Yanlu looking at him seriously.

"Jiang Zhi just woke up and is unconscious. Don't listen to him."

Bian Shi curled his lips and said, "I know, he was just saying that out of anger." He was also using this reason to comfort himself.

"What's his condition like?" Bian Shi continued to ask.

Wu Yanlu sighed, "You've seen what's happened over the past two days. Without the herbs, Jiang Zhi's condition would be completely uncontrollable, and he'd have to rely on healing psychics to keep him alive."

"I just gave him a full checkup. The nematode virus has spread throughout his body. This is the most difficult part. If he doesn't take medication to control it, he will become a complete carrier of the nematodes in 48 hours."

Jiang Zhi's body was not weak to begin with, but no matter how strong a person is, if he is infected with the nematode virus and has no medicine to treat it, he will eventually die.

Bian Shi was unwilling to accept this. "Does the Alliance really have no medicine left? He's the commander of the Alliance. Do we really want to watch him die?"

Wu Yanlu also found it hard to believe. He had not expected that the alliance had become an empty shell and could not even meet the basic supply of medicines.

Bian Shi restrained his expression and took two steps back. "I heard that the fourth planet was originally a planting base, but unfortunately due to lack of water resources, many medicinal herbs have disappeared. So, is it too late for me to go to the fourth planet now?"

Wu Yanlu shook his head and leaned close to Bian Shi's ear, lowering his voice very low, "Bian Shi, according to the mother planet's plan, the fourth planet is used as an energy reserve planet, and it is planted with crops and medicinal herbs. Logically..."

"All water resources will be supplied to the fourth star first. We won't run out of medicine due to water shortage."

Bian Shi's eyes flashed with surprise. "According to you, the medicinal herbs weren't grown, but were transported somewhere else?"

This was just a guess, and Wu Yanlu wasn't sure, but he was sincerely trying to find a solution for Bian Shi.

"I heard that Shan Yan has already flown a spaceship to the outer system, where there will be medicinal herbs." After saying this, Bian Shi fell into deep thought.

Wu Yanlu also remained silent.

Finally, the wall in front of him shook again, and Feng Niqian walked out of it.

Seeing Bian Shi's solemn expression, she was stunned for a moment, "Don't stay here. Jiang Zhi has lost his mind and doesn't want to see you. He even said those cruel words."

Bian Shi relaxed his brows slightly, "Do you also think he said that on purpose?"

Feng Niqian shut her mouth and decided not to interfere in the affairs between them.

"Medicine is in short supply right now. I can't just watch him die." Bian Shi said in a deep voice, "It would take dozens of days to go back and forth to the outer department. They simply can't wait."

"The fourth star is Mu Jingzhi's territory. He can't provide the medicinal herbs, but there is someone who can."

As soon as Bian Shi finished speaking, Wu Yanlu and Feng Niqian looked at him sideways.

The three of them looked at each other and nodded.

……

In the botanical garden, Bian Shi and the other two looked at Mu Lingwei quietly.

Mu Lingwei was a little frightened by this scene. She swallowed and asked nervously, "What do you want to do?"

Bian Shi suddenly sighed, "Miss Mu, I have something to ask of you."

Mu Lingwei even corrected Bian Shi's address, "Didn't I tell you to call me by my name?"

Bian Shi paused and continued, "The situation is now critical. The nematode virus in his body has spread. In forty hours or more, he won't be able to be saved."

Mu Lingwei became anxious when she heard this. "No way? Isn't it just a virus? There are already ways to cure this virus. Why is he going to die?"

"I heard that Jiang Zhi has led the team to restore the basic facilities of the home planet. They are also vigorously eliminating the nematode virus and those infected have been dealt with."

"How come he only has a little over forty hours left?"

Bian Shi frowned. "The Alliance's supply of medicinal herbs has been cut off for a long time. Even if the technology is advanced now, without the raw materials, it will be useless."

Mu Lingwei frowned, still a little bit unbelieving, but she still rushed into the botanical garden with her skirt lifted up.

"Come and help me. I have planted many plants here. There should be some medicinal herbs that can be used." Mu Lingwei wiped the sweat from her face and pulled Bian Shi over.

"These are all magical herbs I planted. They are specially used to treat nematode viruses. Take them quickly. Saving lives is important."

Bian Shi looked at her with complicated eyes and was unable to speak.

Shame washed over him.

"Hey, what are you daydreaming about?" Mu Lingwei pushed him hard.

Bian Shi staggered a little, but unexpectedly he smiled.

"Thank you, Mu, Mu Lingwei."
