Lin Xuexi grew up in an era of national entertainment, men in that era were generally feminine and graceful, and with the development of the times, she has always disagreed with these more sissy men, she thinks that men should be more masculine, responsible, responsible, and responsible, she hopes that her future other half can be like this. Of course, that doesn't mean that she, Lin Xuexi, is a masculinist.

Wenxiu has always forbidden Lin Xuexi to have a boyfriend, in her opinion, those men who are attentive to Lin Xuexi all have other plans, and if Lin Xuexi has a boyfriend, it will inevitably greatly reduce her innocent image, and she will also lose a large number of fans and supporters.

So she, like Lifus, has never been in love, Lifus didn't have a chance to talk, she didn't dare to talk.

To tell the truth, with Lifus's conditions, even in the post-entertainment era where evil is rampant, it can be regarded as outstanding, different from those soft and contrived traffic niches more than 500 years ago, his handsome face is more resolute and heroic, and there is a kind of reassuring simplicity.

Lifus is still very smart, with a high IQ, not the kind of intelligence that solves calculus linear matrices, but a kind of cunning and wisdom of a battlefield veteran, of course, even if he solves calculus and linear matrices, only Achilles and a few other supercomputers in this world can surpass him.

In any aspect, Lifus is good enough, and it is very in line with Lin Xuexi's aesthetics, this man is a smart person, a humorous person, a powerful person, and her savior.

When she was rescued from that smelly hell by Lifus, her most unbearable and humble side was all looked down upon by Lifus, which made her always feel inferior in front of Lifus, and she couldn't think of any other way to resolve this inferiority complex than marrying him.

The masculine charm exuded by Lifus made her heart move, every time she teased and joked, and several very direct confessions made her feel numb, she almost agreed last time, but when she thought of the deaths of Wenxiu and Horod, those miserable pictures were vivid.

They all died, killed by one of their own decisions, and she, the culprit, not only survived, but also had to talk to people about love, you and me, and I flew like wings, which she couldn't accept no matter what, she couldn't live too well, otherwise she would feel sorry for her dead partner, and she didn't even want her eyes to be healed.

"I'm sorry, if we met in another time and space, I would not hesitate to promise you, but now I have too many things on my back, and I can only live up to your true feelings, maybe we are destined to have no part." Lin Xuexi thought silently in her heart, she was sad, but she didn't regret it.

***

Maybe it's because of the haze, the days in the last days pass quickly, the days are very short, and the nights are unusually long.

Lin Xuexi took the spoon and slowly stirred the rice porridge in the pot, she didn't want to cook it anymore this time.

It's been a week since she was first rescued here, except for the injury on her right eye, the rest of her body is skin trauma, and she can walk on the ground after recuperating for a while, she doesn't want to make herself look useless, so she takes the initiative to take on the job of cooking.

She wore a lanky close-fitting V-neck shirt with a half-worn black cotton jacket over it and a pair of light-colored jeans underneath, all of which were selected from the supplies given by the Immortal Country.

The food in the last days is very easy to cook, as long as you cook what you want to eat, so even if Lin Xuexi has never cooked a meal before, it is enough to be qualified for this job.

The rice boiled in boiling water emitted a rich aroma, and this food, which Lin Xuexi used to disdain, has become a delicacy now.

She limped to the side to get some sticks of wood and stuffed them into the stove. The firewood is Livers' responsibility, usually some branches of the fir trees, and small deciduous shrubs that have dried up.

The wound on her calf was still a little painful, and Lifus suggested that she recuperate for a few more days, but she insisted on cooking for everyone, and Lifus couldn't resist her.

This stove is very difficult to burn, and if you don't get it right, it will smoke, especially in windless weather.

"Here you go." Lifus came in from outside and suddenly stuffed something into Lin Xuexi's hand.

Lin Xuexi looked down at the item, it was very small, very delicate, heavy, and exuded a dark metallic luster.

"What is this?" Lin Xuexi was in no hurry to return the things.

"A folding dagger, safe here." Lifus pointed to a protrusion on the side of the dagger.

Lin Xuexi grabbed the handle of the knife and pressed it hard, and the dagger quickly popped out, and the blade emitted a black cold light, as if it was absorbing the temperature in the nearby air.

"Hey, be careful!" Lifus didn't expect her to open the dagger directly, "It's probably the sharpest and hardest thing in the world, it's made of super metal with a steel clamping process, and if it cuts off your fingers, you may not feel the resistance." ”

"Is it precious?" Lin Xuexi tilted her head and asked.

"Hmm...... Not count. Li Fusi scratched his head and said, I don't know why, he always looks stupid in front of Lin Xuexi.

“…… Thank you, I love it. Lin Xuexi did some ideological struggle, and finally accepted the gift, this is the first time in her life that she has received a gift from her admirer in person, it is a very sweet feeling, which is why she did not refuse in the end.

She folded the dagger back and tucked it into her trouser pocket.

What a funny boy who actually gave away knives. Lin Xuexi felt that her affection for Li Fusi was increasing day by day, but it was ......

Lin Xuexi turned around, turned her back to Lifus, and a crystal teardrop fell on the edge of the pot, making a "bang" sound.

"What's wrong with you?" Lifus noticed something was wrong and hurried to her.

"It's okay, it's smoky." Lin Xuexi explained weakly, but the strange tone coming out of her mouth betrayed her.

"You go and rest first, I'll cook." Lifus's concern was beyond words, and he wanted to help Lin Xuexi to the bedside.

But Lin Xuexi pushed him out of the door.

"You go out and wait for a while, and the meal will be ready soon."

Lin Xuexi couldn't help but shut Li Fusi out of the door, Li Fusi didn't know which nerve was wrong with her, but he didn't dare to go against her will.

The iron door closed with a "bang", which shook Lin Xuexi's heart and was about to break.

She sat slowly on the ground with her back against the iron door, the tears in her eyes falling silently, wetting the hem of her clothes, and it was hard to imagine that her single eye could shed so many tears.

Whenever she felt a little sweet and happy in her life, the flesh-and-blood images of Wenxiu and Holod would appear in her mind, telling her that she was not qualified to enjoy these things, and that she was just a surviving person living in the world.

However, she really likes Lifus! Once she thinks like this, she will develop a deep sense of guilt, what should she do? She felt like she was about to collapse and schizophrenia, and she was going to tell him the secrets of Fermi's experimental base? Is he trustworthy?

Gotta break it!

Lin Xuexi wiped away her tears, her eyes were full of determination.

Someone has to make a sacrifice, right? This time, for the well-being of all mankind, love or something, to hell with it!

At least the excuse was great enough to keep her from being so upset.

***

The entrance to the underground warehouse at the nuclear test site was sealed by a thick iron door, and Lifus wanted to make a hole on the lower right side of the iron door that only one person could climb in and out, but the progress was not satisfactory.

The monkey watch shoots out a high-energy laser beam, melting and burning the base metal on the iron door little by little, and without the high-pressure oxygen flow blowing away the slag and slag in the molten pool, Lifus can only melt the steel plate more than 20 centimeters thick piece by piece, and he now misses the half bottle of oxygen that he lost.

He had been working here for almost a week, leaving only an arc-shaped incision in the iron door, and with the current progress of the work, it would be about ten days before he could cut through the hole.

Fortunately, the age of this underground warehouse is very old and backward, and the iron door is not even doped with copper and aluminum and other cutting-resistant materials with high reflectivity and high thermal conductivity, otherwise he would have to give up.

"Haven't you given up yet?"

Li Xinran sat in the trailer bucket of the tractor, the railings on both sides were lowered, and she lay on a pile of hay bundles, swinging her legs leisurely.

She changed into a linen-brown sweater, which fit well, and the original military coat was gone.

It's a great day to not have to worry about food, and you can stay home and chat during the day. She took a white rice ball from her pocket, took a bite, and closed her eyes comfortably.

It was her snack, she cooked a lot of rice, then kneaded it into rice balls, put it on the outside to freeze, and steam it when she wanted to eat it.

Her original intention was to bask in the sun, but the sun at noon was just a white circle of light in the sky, not very warm, Li Xinran felt that it was still a little cold, so she simply sat up.

"How can you give up on such a thing?" Lifus did not let go of his work, and the molten iron and air made some noise from the combustion, but it did not interfere with the conversation.

"I'm not talking about this, I'm talking about you and Sister Xuexi." Li Xinran felt that Lifus had misunderstood her.

"I didn't say that, don't you think her attitude towards me has improved recently?" Livers didn't look back.

"You don't think you're delusional at all, do you?" Li Xinran felt that Li Fusi needed a blow to help him recognize the reality, "Besides, how can there be gifts and knives?" You're stupid with a radiant head, aren't you? ”

"I want to send flowers, but where do you let me find flowers where our rabbits don't? There are a lot of snowflakes. Livers said depressedly.

"That's not like you, but also send a knife, do you want to cut off with someone or do you want to see the dagger? Maybe people think you're going to threaten her, what's the matter? If people don't get along with you, you still want to kill people, don't you? Spicy hand-destroying flowers? Rape before killing? ”

"I found that you have listened to Xiaoxi's songs for a few days, and your literary literacy has risen gradually, and you can also use idioms, and you can rhyme.

"I can't figure it out, after a big man is rejected by others, he can still stick his hot face on someone's cold buttocks, and be courteous before and after the saddle, are you men so cheap? I'm curious if you will be like this if you meet a beautiful woman again, see one and love another. Li Xinran was very dissatisfied with Lifus's performance during this period of time, and felt that he had lost his self-esteem.

"Ahem, ahem...... Little girl, pay attention to your words, and grovel in front of true love, there's nothing to be ashamed of. Li Fusi finally stopped what he was doing and turned to Li Xinran, "It's not righteous words, right?" Serious at best. Besides, when will I see one and love another? Don't I see that you hold on to it? ”

"Lifuss, you bastard!" Lifus's words were too hurtful, the little girl was not happy at once, she bit the remaining half of the rice ball in her hand and slammed it into Lifus's face, "You still keep saying that you want to be a brother, do you bully your sister like this?" ”

Li Fusi reached out and caught the half of the rice ball, threw it into his mouth, and said vaguely while chewing: "Thank you, it just so happens that I am a little hungry, and this meal at noon may have been saved again, and your sister Xuexi probably cooked the porridge again." ”

"You're so unconfident in me, huh?" Lin Xuexi's voice suddenly interjected, she stood on the other side of the Kumen, with a smile on her face, sleeves on her arms, and long hair coiled on her head, looking like a lazy young woman who was diligent and thrifty.

Li Fusi was a little caught off guard by Lin Xuexi's sudden appearance, and she didn't know how much she had heard the conversation just now.

"I have something to talk to you about." Lin Xuexi said to Lifus.

Li Xinran jumped out of the car and walked into the distance, "Okay, you two should complain to each other, I don't use a light bulb." ”

"What's the matter?" Lifus was a little embarrassed.

"I want to make a deal with you." Lin Xuexi was indifferent.
