The live broadcast went smoothly, wearing an isolation treatment room gown, Zhou Mian unwrapped the bandage on the soldier, and then applied medicine in the presence of the military doctors and federal doctors.
Cecil and Ellen watched from outside the glass wall and didn’t go in.
The live broadcast lasted for a day, and at the end the viewers saw the captain open his eyes and slowly recover.
Gu Xingzhi also asked the captain how he felt, and the captain was already able to speak a little.
All in all, everything went smoothly.
After the live broadcast was over, in the star network, the people were in another situation.
Things were getting better, and Cecil took the opportunity to meet with Gu Xingzhi to discuss military arrangements on the frontier.
And Zhou Mian took advantage of this to drive a small aircraft to the mountains to look for more medicinal plants. Zhou Mian heard that the Hong luoluo blooming in the snowy mountains in the frontier is purer, and the ingredients that can detoxify Zerg poison when gathered from these plants are more effective. Zhou Mian wanted to see it for himself.
Cecil originally did not allow it, and kept pulling Zhou Mian to go to the meeting together, but Zhou Mian categorically refused.
Zhou Mian has always grasped the official affairs between them very accurately, and Zhou Mian will not let himself be too involved in the military affairs of the Federation, after all, his identity is sensitive. Brothers clearly settle accounts, and this kind of thing between partners is even more important.
Zhou Mian refused the invitation to the meeting and packed up and went to the mountains instead.
Zhou Mian originally wanted to go alone, but he couldn’t bear Ellen’s entanglement, so he had to take this highness.
“The mountains where we’re going … How’s it?” Ellen rubbed his hands and curled up on the seat in the corner of the aircraft.
Zhou Mian said with a smile: “It’s a place that suits you, aren’t you bored and cold?”
“Isn’t it colder in the mountains…?”
“Nope.” Zhou Mian shook his head and said, “Let’s go exercise, it won’t be cold after we sweat while climbing the mountain. And the frontier of Glacier is not the same as the Federation, the more remote the place, the warmer it is.”
Ellen blinked, is it so amazing…?
Zhou Mian glanced at the escort following behind him, including Gu Xingzhi’s federal army and Cecil’s twelfth army, patted Ellen’s shoulder and said: “Remember to follow the escort closely after getting off the aircraft, don’t go far, pay attention to safety.”
Ellen pouted and let out a dissatisfied “um.”
Everyone now treats him as a child , he is also useless to himself, and he can’t blame others, but he still feels unhappy.
Zhou Mian smiled, patted the top of Ellen’s hair and said, “It’s not that I look down on you, it’s just that you are not familiar with the frontier,it’s not a peaceful place like the capital, it is naturally good to pay more attention. It’s not just you, I’m not going far either, we must all be cautious.”
Ellen was stunned, and then nodded his head so hard like he was pounding garlic.
“Good!”
The mountains are full of dead branches, and the snow on the ground is knee-thick, making it difficult to walk even an inch.
“Whoosh! It’s cold!” Ellen cried out and said, “I’m gonna lose my legs like this!!” Zhou Mian didn’t know if to laugh or cry seeing this and asked him to go back to the aircraft and not follow him, but Ellen was stubborn and insisted on following.
The two also walked forward step by step, Zhou Mian carrying a container to pick up Hong Luoluo along the way, followed by the army.
Leaving one deep, one shallow step on the snow, Zhou Mian looked back and paused slightly.

But recently he also learned that Cecil is a very gentle and warm person.
How nice it would be if it was…
Zhou Mian was stunned, patted his face, and deeply felt that he was frozen stupid.
“Let’s go.”
The two climbed halfway up the mountain, and sure enough, as Zhou Mian said, Ellen was sweating and did not feel so cold anymore.
“Hey…! Waterfall!” Ellen pointed ahead and smiled: “How can there be a waterfall?! Shouldn’t they all be frozen?”
“So I said, the higher, the warmer it gets.” Zhou Mian smiled and said, “You take people there to play, the water should also be warm.” Ellen went to the waterfall and tentatively touched it with his fingertips, and after finding that it was really warm, he soaked his hands and feet.
Zhou Mian laughed, climbed up the stone wall, and plucked the rare herbs that appeared on the cracks between the stone walls.
He had heard that there were many precious herbs in remote areas of the federal frontier, and they really lived up to their name.
Zhou Mian identified the picked herbs while throwing them into separate containers in his backpack, secretly noting and planning to make a report, so that people could come here regularly to collect medicines, and then send them back to the federal plant factory.
After picking the herbs he needed, Zhou Mian was about to come down, but saw Ellen suddenly exclaimed from below.
“Ah Mian look!”
Ellen pointed to the top of the stone and said, “What is that?”
Zhou Mian was stunned.
When he looked up, he saw a cluster of purple flowers blooming on the top of the stone, the round petals were mixed with a slight light blue, and the violet orchids were very beautiful, so beautiful that they didn’t look real.
Standing against the wind, a little snow covered it, yet did not crush it.
…… It’s Peacock Tail!
Zhou Mian said, “It is a flower that blooms in cold weather.”
“Oh…!” Ellen bowed his head to indicate that he wasn’t interested, and then he lowered his head and continued to wash his face.
Ellen felt even the sweat on his eyebrows might be frozen and he groaned comfortably while washing.
Zhou Mian glanced at the cluster of flowers, paused, and slowly grabbed the vines and the bumps of the stone wall and slowly got up.
Ellen was taken aback and said, “Be careful!
“It’s okay.”
Zhou Mian wanted to pick that cluster of flowers.
Seeing that Zhou Mian continued to climb high, the rest of the guards quickly climbed up together.
Zhou Mian jumped and finally managed to climb to the flat ground at the top.
However, Zhou Mian had just picked the flowers and with great cherish put them into his waist pocket, he felt that his eyes flickered, and the red color flashed in front of his eyes.
“Bang! Bump ——!
Zhou Mian subconsciously pulled out his hand holding the gun and fired a shot forward.
The person in front of him moved quickly, avoiding Zhou Mian’s strafing.
The soldiers below immediately reacted in unison and chased after the figure with guns.
Zhou Mian took a defensive posture, half-squatting on the side o, holding a gun and aiming it at the man in red in front of him.
Chiying stood in front, his loose hair scattered casually on the side of his cheeks, and smiled softly: “Why so fierce?”
Zhou Mian said coldly, “Why are you here?”
“Pirates have always traveled around. And…” Chiying smiled and nodded with his thumb, “This captain’s heart suddenly has a harbor.”
Zhou Mian looked at Chiying expressionlessly.
Chiying shrugged and snapped his fingers.
Then they saw countless pirates appear everywhere and surround them.
Chiying flicked the snow off his shoulder and said, “What if I say… If you voluntarily go back with me, there will be one less war, how is it? “Chiying’s voice has always been languid and seductive, saying it like a lover’s whisper, his every move is pompous, noble yet not feminine.
Zhou Mian sneered: “We are not afraid of battle, it is you who must be careful!”
With that, he drew his sword and made a stabbing motion towards Chiying.
The two fought on the edge of a towering cliff, where their bodies could easily lose their balance and fall, yet the only thing that fell down was the snow on the ground.
The pirates below were fierce in their approach against Ellen, but fortunately Ellen practiced with Zhou Mian before, and now he can cope with it when he is surrounded by guards.
“Bang!”
The tip of Zhou Mian’s sword stabbed towards Chiying, and then he saw Chiying turn around, blocking Zhou Mian’s sword with the back of his hand.
Chikage chuckled and said, “You can’t beat me, do you know why?” Zhou Mian frowned slightly.
Chiying said, “I’m too familiar with your ways.”
“Ding!”
Zhou Mian’s sword was swept away by Chiying.
Zhou Mian took a deep breath and also hooked up his lips: “Good.” And what followed… Chi Ying would never have guessed.
Boom——
Chiying’s eyes widened, and he saw that Zhou Mian himself… Jumped off the edge of the cliff!
Chiying’s pupils shrank, and he subconsciously chased after him and jumped down, his hand grabbing a bulge on the stone wall and hanging in midair.
Zhou Mian on the other end grabbed the vine, put his feet on the stone wall a little, and held the sword and stabbed towards Chiying.
As soon as Chiying turned around, he jumped up and reached out to cut off Zhou Mian’s vine, and then he wanted to hold Zhou Mian who fell after losing support.
However, Zhou Mian was ruthless, and kicked Chiying away with his legs, so strong that the two were directly separated for a long distance.
After Zhou Mian was pushed by the counterforce, he then lost his support in mid-air and fell down, while Chiying slammed into the stone wall on the side and spat out a mouthful of blood.
“Ah Mian…!” Ellen’s eyes widened.
Fortunately, Zhou Mian was in the water under him, and Zhou Mian put on a correct posture in the rapid fall, face down, legs together, hands vertically in front of him, and fell into the water gracefully like a mermaid.
“Boom——!
Splashes.
Zhou Mian only felt that his head, which had not fully recovered, began to get dizzy again at this moment, and there was a buzzing sound in his mind, and his vision turned white.
However, Chiying was even worse, he was injured after hitting the stone wall, and he could only fall into the water slipping against the stone wall, and blood spread directly on the surface of the river.
Zhou Mian shook his head, forcefully pulled out the small dagger hidden in his belt and pounced on Chiying fiercely, pressing the person into the water, and the dagger plunged into Chiying’s heart.
It’s a pity that no matter how hurt Chi Ying was, he still reacted, dodged aside, and the blade was slightly deflected and barely missed stabbing his heart.
The blood on the surface of the river flowed more freely.
Chiying’s dagger was also sent into Zhou Mian’s wrist, and the two were under the water, Zhou Mian’s long hair scattered, and whose blood it was couldn’t be distinguished anymore.
In the end, it was Zhou Mian who lost first.
Although Zhou Mian’s wound was very light, and Chiying was stabbed more fiercely, Zhou Mian had just recovered from his injury in the Dark Phoenix before, plus jumped down from the top of the waterfall, and his body really couldn’t bear it anymore.
Zhou Mian couldn’t resist the cold anymore, closed his eyes, and the hand holding the dagger also loosened.
Chiying hooked his lips up, endured the pain and dizziness due to excessive blood loss and wanted to grab Zhou Mian, but a “splash” appeared in front of him.
Ellen held his gun, holding his breath in the water and shooting at Chiying, trying hard to protect Zhou Mian.
Pirates and Union troops also went into the water to protect their own masters.
Zhou Mian and Chiying were pulled up, and Zhou Mian opened his eyes in a daze, and saw the federal army and pirates fighting together, and there was chaos everywhere.
Chiying was carried back by the pirates, standing on the opposite bank and laughing: “Zhou Mian! Cough…… Even if, even if I can’t take you this time… When you know the purpose and secret of my visit… cough, you, you will come to me on your own initiative.”
Before Zhou Mian completely lost consciousness, what he saw was Chiying smiling at him.
Thank You for the new chapter -ω(´•ω•｀)♡
Thanks for the chapter
Oh, just piss off you jerk. We don’t need you.
+1, we should just shoot him and move on
+2 I agree with you sister, this man got them cockroach vibes always coming back from the dead and hiding in all the nook and crannies of my house like I swear I killed it and buried the corpse but its like there’s a queen cockroach that keeps spawning them, so annoying! Once infested by cockroaches don’t even think about having privacy…
He is so annoying 😬
Chi Ying knows they infected him with that bug, doesn’t he? He’s gonna use that as leverage against Zhou Mian.
Thanks for the updates! <3
I feel like Chiying is in love with him, and most likely obsessed as well.
Thanks for the chapter~~~
He is. In a way I think he actually sincerely love him. Deeper than the male lead. Its like Romero and Juliet. Mc will never go back to being a pirate and Chi can never stop being a pirate. Both ml and second ml are obsessed with our mc just in different ways. ML is obsessed with the childhood of our mc, even putting the delicate and need protection filter on him. Sec ML is obsessed with the time he spent with mc as a child and his beauty. Both are very obsessed. One want him to be his little bird in a cage and the other want him to be the mother of his children
Oh no, now that you’ve explained it in that way, I’m rooting for the chi ying ((( ；ﾟДﾟ))) that “the other want him to be the mother of his children” is very hot, but sadly we all knows it won’t happen. Now I feel really bad for him.
Chi ying is the dark romance route. I’m also rooting for him and a little sad that he won’t get his happy ending. Chi would never want a child, he’s way to possessive and wouldn’t want to share mc with anyone
Just when I thought he’d finally been killed – Chi Ying deflected 😠
Thanks for the chapter 💞
