Under One Person: I Opened the Age of Mythology

Chapter 18 Tips for raising cats, seeking medical advice from the company
Early the next morning.

Xia Ye and Xiao Zizai walked out of the room one after another, and then looked towards Chen Duo's door at the same time.

From last night till now, they have been paying attention to this side from time to time. This girl seems to be really motionless and has been in a state of tension.

"Is she... okay?"

Xiao Zizai looked at Xia Ye with worry in his eyes. He felt that this was not going to work and wondered if he should do something.

But next second...

"Old Xiao, have you ever had a cat?"

Xia Ye asked with a smile, which surprised him.

"I've thought about it, but I don't dare to raise one."

He was afraid that he would lose control and kill the cat.

"I have had one, and it was given to me by a friend. When it first came to my house, it curled up in a corner. It took about a week for it to slowly dare to come out and move around. After a month, it finally got closer to me."

"You haven't taken care of it for this month?" Xiao Zizai asked curiously.

"Of course I give it food and water and clean out its poop every day, but that's all. After all, for something like being close to it, it has to be willing." Xia Ye said with a smile.

"In fact, cats are very sensitive and psychologically fragile animals. The slightest sense of insecurity can make them explode..."

"For example, during that month, a friend of mine visited and tried to hold it by force. As soon as he touched it, it scratched him and left several bloody wounds. He was sent directly to the hospital."

"Um……"

"Are you trying to say that this girl is just like that cat?"

Xiao Zizai understood what he meant after a moment's thought. After thinking about it carefully, it was indeed the case.

"Almost. But this girl is much more dangerous and fragile than the kitten. Before she is willing to come in contact with us, we just need to 'feed her water and food'."

After saying that, Xia Ye walked into the kitchen and started making breakfast. He liked cooking and trying different innovative recipes. This was his hobby.

At the same time, in his opinion, cooking is actually the same as refining medicine, which is a process of "combination", "refining" and "waiting for reaction". He can understand many principles of refining medicine from it, and can also regard it as a kind of practice.

Soon, breakfast was ready. Xia Ye placed two servings on the table, and then walked to Chen Duo's door with another serving...

Knock knock knock!
"Little girl, it's time to eat."

After knocking on the door, he opened it and walked in, smiled at Chen Duo who was sitting cross-legged and practicing, and placed breakfast beside her bed.

"Eat it while it's hot. It won't taste as good when it's cold."

Then he pointed to the door...

"Oh, by the way, let me explain, this door is not used to lock you, but to ensure our privacy. That's why I knocked on the door before coming in just now. I just didn't wait for your response. Sorry..."

"Next time I knock on the door, if you want me to come in, just say 'come in'. If you don't want me to come in, just say 'don't come in'. This room is completely yours, you can do whatever you want."

"...?"

Hearing this, Chen Duo was obviously stunned, with confusion in his eyes, but it was quickly suppressed.

Then, she nodded subconsciously. This was already a habitual obedience. At the same time, she tried her best to find an instruction from it - "If you are willing, say 'come in'. If you are not willing, say 'don't come in'"!
but……

What is "willing"?
"If you feel happy and excited when you think about it, then you are willing. If you feel uncomfortable and scared, then you are unwilling." Xia Ye added, as if he saw her confusion.

"Don't be nervous. This isn't an order, just a suggestion. It's up to you whether you listen or not. If you feel bored and want to go out, you can do whatever you want. The environment around here is pretty good."

After saying that, Xia Ye left Chen Duo's room directly, closed the door gently, and then came to the dining table to eat breakfast with Xiao Zi, looking very enjoyable.

And while eating...

"By the way, does she not have a name yet?" Xiao Zizai suddenly thought of this and mentioned it casually.

"Hmm? Really..."

Xia Ye also reacted at this time. Chen Duo now... it seems that she is not called "Chen Duo" yet?

"Why not call her Chen Duo? She looks a lot like a girl next door that I know, so let's call her Chen Duo." After thinking about it, he made up something.

"..."

"Is it so casual?"

"Just kidding. No matter what name we give her, it depends on her own wishes, right? Let's wait for her to get used to it slowly. There's no rush..."

"Too."

Xiao Zizai nodded and didn't say anything more.

After dinner, Xiao Zizai returned to his room and began to practice. After the killing the day before, he really felt like he was "full" and needed to digest and settle down his food so as to adapt to his strengthened body.

Xia Ye walked to the medicine cabinet and began to count and organize the medicinal materials inside. He already had a plan for Chen Duo's initial treatment, so now he wanted to check the inventory situation.

However, not long after he started...

"Ok?"

His eyes focused again and he turned to look in the direction of the gate. His perception was different from that of ordinary people and he could sense that a group of people were approaching here a few hundred meters away.

Knock knock knock!
"I have a visitor here, please don't come out for the time being."

So he knocked on Xiao Zizai's door to remind him, then stood behind the counter and waited quietly.

moment……

Knock knock knock!
"Excuse me, is Doctor Xia here?"

There was a knock on the door and a voice came in. Xia Ye narrowed his eyes and the identity of the visitor became clear.

"People from the company..."

"Please come in!"

Even though he had just done a big job, and was just one door away with the criminals and evidence in hand, he remained calm and composed, and started to greet people directly.

crunch--

Sure enough, the next second, several figures in company employee uniforms pushed the door open and hurried in, carrying a stretcher with a person lying on it.

This person seemed to have been poisoned by some strange and contagious poison, so he was wearing a protective isolation suit. Through the suit, one could see the festering and festering skin inside, and his breathing was already weak.

"Divine Doctor Xia!"

After entering the room, several people gently put the stretcher on the ground, let the patient lie down, and quickly saluted Xia Ye. The leader of the team began to explain:

"Our brother was accidentally poisoned while on a mission yesterday. The poison spread very quickly. We immediately sought help from Wang Guoshou, but he was helpless!"

The "Wang Guoshou" he mentioned is naturally Wang Zizhong, one of the "Nine Great Medical Hands" in China. Not only is he an expert in treating external injuries, he also has made considerable achievements in removing and treating internal toxins with acupuncture.

Xia Ye smiled and shook his head when he heard this:

"Heh, did you go find Mr. Wang first? That's normal..."

"However, next time a similar situation occurs, please come to me directly. After all, the abilities of the old men are limited. You should put the patients first and not delay the treatment."
