The next day, Rhine was hot and confused, and the toxin of the red bone fish seemed to have attacked, and with his physique, although not fatal, it would delay the recovery of the injury.

Shang Ke climbed down the tree, ripped off his placket, scrubbed it clean, and then returned to the tree to help Rhine wipe his body. Judging by his condition, I am afraid that he will not be able to continue his journey, and it is better to stay where he is and wait for rescue. They are in the territory of the Zerg outside the defense line, and they are in danger of being discovered at any time, and only the pine bone tree is their best reliance at the moment.

Shang Ke took out a signal mirror from his body, although it could not directly transmit signals to the base, but after absorbing solar energy, it could reflect red light, as long as a team passed by, it would inevitably be discovered. However, the flash is too conspicuous at night, and it is easy to attract zerg, so Shang Ke is useless.

Shang Ke fed Rhine half a tube of nutrient solution, and fixed him to the branch with a vine to prevent him from accidentally falling, and then climbed down the tree to investigate the situation nearby, and found some food by the way.

In the Zerg realm, there are basically no edible wild plants, and only some aquatic organisms or ordinary insects can be caught. The other beasts didn't have to think about it for the time being, he didn't have the time or the strength. The beasts that can survive in the Zerg realm are undoubtedly not extremely fierce.

Shang Ke forked two fish from the river, dug up a few scallops, and after a little processing, quickly returned to the pine valley tree.

Rhine opened his eyes suddenly, and when he saw Shang Ke returning, his gloomy face softened slightly.

"I caught two fish, let's eat sashimi today." Shang Ke raised the fish and scallops wrapped in leaves in his hands.

Rhine stared silently at his smiling face, his gaze focused and soft.

Shang Ke sat on the branch, took out the dagger, and skillfully sliced the fish and arranged it neatly on the leaves. Then he picked up the scallops, and a fishy smell hit his face, making Rhine frown.

Still visible, he asked, "Not used to this smell?" ”

Rhine nodded.

"It's okay, I'll try it when it's done."

"Roast?" Rhine didn't know how Shang Ke planned to roast it, and it was obviously not suitable for a fire in such a place.

"Look at me." You can still use a few iron branches that are not suitable for burning to make a small grill on the branches, put the washed scallops on the shelf, pour a few drops of nutrient solution on each of them, and then turn on the firer and start baking back and forth under the grill.

Rhine was stunned, but he didn't expect that he could still cook barbecue under such humble conditions.

"Well, let's eat a few sashimi pieces to fill my stomach." Shang Ke picked up a fillet and handed it to Rhine's mouth.

Rein ate silently, his hair hanging down in front of his forehead, and looking at Shang Ke's gaze, like a big dog waiting to be fed by his master.

Shang Ke is calm on the surface, but he is very cool in his heart: Xiaoxiao, you also have today! Let you be arrogant, let you be arrogant, and if you are injured, you don't have to rely on the master to take care of you, ha, ha, ha.

When the sashimi is eaten, the scallops are also baked, and when the lid is lifted, the rich fragrance comes to the face, although there is no seasoning, but it is better than the pure natural pollution-free, and the meat is fresh and delicious.

Shang used a knife to dig out the steaming scallop meat, blew it, and brought it to Rhine's mouth.

Rhine is not afraid of being hot, and eats it in a few bites. I thought it would be very difficult to endure these days, but someone has the ability to live a chic and comfortable life in such a situation, which brings him endless fun.

Putting aside the status and letting go of the blind strength, just getting along with Shang Ke is such a pleasant enjoyment.

Rhine unconsciously restrained the momentum on his body, just to get closer to the person in front of him.

A day later, before the rescue arrived, he could expand the scope of his activities, leave marks in different places, and at the same time find all kinds of strange food for Rhine, which also allowed Rhine to see his transformation of decay into magical cooking methods, and forced him to live a hard life of refuge like a landowner.

The next night, it rained heavily. After the heavy rain, Ley's injuries worsened and his consciousness fell into a complete drowsy. To make matters worse, the heavy rain diluted the smell of the pine valley tree, and the two were unfortunately discovered by a group of passing Zerg.

Shang Ke drew his dagger, rushed into the swarm, and began a bloody battle. The battle went on silently, and it did not alarm the unconscious Rhine.

By the time all the bugs were still gone, it was already an hour later. His upper body was naked, a few strands of cloth hung under his waist, undulating with the wind, his body was scarred, and blood flowed slowly down the lines of his muscles. The arms hung limply, trembling incessantly, leaning against the trunk of the tree, wheezing violently. The vision was blurred, as if it was covered with a layer of blood mist.

He looked at the corpses at his feet, and knew that he couldn't stay here, but he really didn't have the strength anymore. In this state, it is not possible to go far with Rhine.

After much deliberation, I decided to stay where I was for the time being. Shang Ke took a short break and began to clean up the insect corpses on the ground.

A few hours later, a new wave of Zerg followed the residual smell of blood and quickly rushed towards Shang Ke and Rhine's location.

Shang Ke stood under the tree, facing hundreds of insects, and waved the dagger in his hand again......

Rhine woke up to the pungent smell of blood, and through the cracks in the leaves, he saw only a dense patch of insect corpses and thick, mottled blood.

"Phil!" Rhine jerked up and quickly leaned down.

Shang Ke sat under the tree, his head bowed, his back arched, one hand across his knees, and the other hand holding a dagger, with a bug stuck in the other end.

The red blood and green mucus left a large smudge on his body, and his original skin color was barely visible. He sat motionless as if he were dead.

"Phil!" Rhine's heart tightened, and he was about to jump off with his hands on the trunk, but he saw the person below suddenly move, laboriously drew the dagger stuck in the bug, and then wiped it on his pants.

At this moment, a group of insects appeared in the distance, rolling towards this direction like a black wave.

Rhine pursed his lips and said to Shang Ke, "Phil, you can go." ”

Shang Ke stood up tremblingly, looking ahead with cloudy eyes, and did not answer his words, because blood was pouring from his mouth.

"Phil, I order you, get out of here at once!" Rhine shouted angrily.

The corners of Shang Ke's mouth pulled a shallow arc, and he said silently in his heart: Even if he wants to walk, he can't walk, his legs are stiff.

Tightening the dagger in his hand, it seems that it is time to test the limits of humanity again, I really hope that the cursed aura will go crazy again, even if it finally becomes a complete waste, it is better than being eaten by this group of bugs.

Rhine saw that Shang Ke was standing upright in place, his weak back looking extremely solid at the moment. Life and death, never abandoned, these eight words suddenly flashed in his mind, like a contract, deep into his soul.

"Don't come down, lest you be a burden to me." Shang Ke raised his dagger and pointed in the direction where Rhine was.

The first time he was treated as a burden, Rhine's face was so bad that his fingers almost sank into the trunk of the tree. But he knew very well that he had lost a leg, and going down would not help much. This sense of powerless embarrassment made him sad and angry, and he wanted to tear it apart.

The Zerg are getting closer and closer, and their eyes are full of rolling black waves, and they are still helpless, as if they will be swallowed up by them in the next second.

Rhine's eyes widened, and strong pheromones gushed out, and the majestic murderous aura made the insect swarm stop strangely, and then scurried around as if it had lost its direction.

But the chaos didn't last long, Rhine suddenly felt dizzy, the pheromones suddenly disappeared, and his vision was hazy, only a churning black cloud and the figure who rushed towards the swarm......

Rhine woke up in a brightly lit room, his injuries properly treated, and when he looked back, he saw a familiar figure leaning against his bedside, looking at him with a smile.

"Phil." Rhine's eyes flashed with surprise, and he stared at him intently, as if he couldn't get enough of it, "Great, you're okay." ”

"Of course I'm fine." Shang Ke smiled softly, "The rescue team arrived in time and brought us back to the capital. You can recuperate with peace of mind now, and I will wait for you to recover. ”

"Hmm." Rhine held his hand tightly, his chest full of tenderness.

"Rhine, I have something I want to say to you, although you are both domineering and unreasonable, and the three views are still very problematic, I am willing to be with you, no matter life or death." Shang Ke asked seriously, "Rhine, what about you, are you willing to change for me?" Respect me, trust me, love me? ”

"Yes, I do." Rhine has never been so sure as he is at this moment, the person in front of him is his lifelong partner, and there is no one more suitable for him than him.

Shang Ke heard this, and an incomparably dazzling smile bloomed on his face.

Rhine's eyes were soft, and this man's smile was always so vibrant, like a lake in the morning light, shining and moving, bringing him infinite strength.

At this moment, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. Shang Ke had been fighting hard with the Zerg for so long, and he must have been scarred, why did he seem to be unharmed at this moment?

Rhine was short of breath, a sharp pain came from his body, his vision was blurred, and the sound of noisy human voices and instrument alarms faintly came from his ears.

"Quick, the brigadier is not in good condition, prepare for first aid!"

The ward was in chaos, and Rhine only had time to summon a "Phil" before falling into complete darkness......

Two months later.

"How's he doing?" Rhine asked in a low voice as he stood in front of a glass and looked at the sleeping people inside.

"Still in a deep coma, it can be awake at any time, and it can worsen at any time." The doctor sighed, "He was already injured in his body, and the sonic impact of the red bone fish caused him to relapse from his old disease, and then he continued to fight the Zerg, without timely medical treatment, plus he was overtired and his body was overdrawn, and it was already a miracle that he was able to survive." ”

Didn't take your medication in time? Rhine's face darkened, not because he didn't want to use it, but because he used the last of the drugs on him.

"Fillmore was truly a valiant and loyal warrior." "When our rescue arrived, he was unconscious, but his body was still fighting instinctively. Probably knowing that you are right behind him, if he falls, you will not survive, so you will continue to fight even when you are unconscious. It's amazing how much willpower you have. ”

Rhine clenched his fists, a silver glint flashed in his eyes, and a sourness suddenly surged into his heart.

He has always regarded himself as a protector, and as a matter of course, he forced Shang Ke to stay by his side, but in the end, it was himself who was protected. He never asked himself to do anything, but he silently gave a lot for himself.

In the past, he was too superficial, thinking that he could control him with strength, but he forgot that he was also an alpha, brave, resolute, and strong, enough to stand side by side with him.

Rhine remembered that two months ago, when he was at stake, he saw Shang Ke. What he thought was real turned out to be just an illusion, but later he learned that he could briefly regain consciousness at that time, and it was not until he was out of danger that he completely fell into a deep coma.

This man, who left the last consciousness and strength, was left to him.

He said, "I'll wait for you to recover." ”

He's restored, so what about him?

Rhine came to Shang Ke's bedside and gently placed the medal representing the "Colonel" on his pillow. This is what he won for Shang Ke, and it is what he deserves.

"Phil, I am willing to be with you, respect you, trust you, and love you, no matter life or death."

However, Rhine never expected that the honor he made for Shang Ke and the promise he made would become his passport to officially bid farewell to this world.

The moment the medal was put down, the instrument immediately emitted a piercing alarm, and Shang Ke's various body numbers were abnormal, and the fatigue and trauma accumulated from years of fighting all exploded at this moment, completely damaging his body.

"Phil!"

When Shang Ke left this world, he only heard a heart-rending cry from Rhine......
