The items in the suitcase were incomprehensible to this group of foreigners. The most important belongings that Lin Lan regarded as a life-saving talisman were all presented in front of everyone without reservation.But in fact, before this, she never thought of letting the second person see the things inside, and she was a white-skinned foreigner, because they were too dangerous and slightly weird.

When Nick Ferry joined the watching camp, the infirmary became more crowded and stuffy.

Lin Lan didn't explain what was in the suitcase at this juncture. This was not the top priority, she was about to die.Those old-looking ceramic bottles and jars of various sizes and colors were placed in boxes with foam pad compartments, all intact, and there was no trace of being opened.On this point, Lin Lan thinks SHIELD is worthy of recognition.

There are fifteen bottles and jars in total, five in each box. The big one is five inches high and four inches wide, and the small one is only three inches high and two inches wide. The openings are sealed with a special kind of beeswax. The three corked bottles contained Lin Lan's homemade medicine stones.

These bottles and jars were bought by her in New York's Chinatown. Some are antiques and some are fakes.Lin Lan has a little research on ancient items, so she found a lot of treasures that can be used to make Gu at a very low price.This is why she is grateful from the bottom of her heart to Dr. Parick for her appreciation, which gave her the opportunity to come into contact with rare poisons and resume her old career.

She didn't have the strength to reach out for the bottle she needed, so she had to say to the vial with the red stopper: "Natasha, I need that one, yes, the smallest one, the red stopper." Natasha took out the bottle she instructed, and Lin Lan said again , "Open it, give me dozens of them."

They were red pills less than five millimeters in diameter. The pungent smell made Natasha frowned, and she asked uncertainly, "Can this really save you?"

"Don't ask anything now, I'll tell you everything later."

Lin Lan swallowed the pill whole, followed her esophagus, and quickly entered her stomach.She closed her eyes and held her breath, when suddenly there was a movement in her dantian, a surge of true energy rushed up, piercing through the eight extraordinary meridians.

Steve was sensitive to touch and noticed that Lin Lan's body temperature was rising rapidly. He was surprised and said happily, "Hey, are you alright?"

"It's still early." Lin Lan recovered most of her strength and sat up from his arms, "Steve, please step back."

Steve didn't know why, but he did it anyway.

Lin Lan was able to sit up by herself and speak forcefully and clearly, which was enough to show that the things in the box really worked.Several people in the room breathed a sigh of relief, and the crisis was resolved.

Lin Lan took off her heavy coat, untied the bandage with Natasha's help, and cut off the sewing thread. The blood from the wound was still bleeding, and she sealed the surrounding acupuncture points again to slow down the blood flow.From the beginning to the end, the Avengers just waited and watched silently, but their hearts were full of questions, and none of them asked.

Nick Ferry's expression was particularly dignified.

Cross-legged on the hospital bed, Lin Lan said, "Natasha, please help me arrange the large jars in the box around me."

Several others said: "We can help."

Lin Lan quickly stopped: "Don't touch it, your yang energy is too strong, let Natasha come."

Steve looked at her blankly: "What, Yang Qi?"

"Steve, I think we have a lot of problems, and when Lin is healed, she will explain everything to us." Natasha took the jar out of the box, "Right, Lin?"

Lin Lan nodded

After fifteen colorful porcelain pots formed a circle, Natasha said, "Do you need me to do anything else?"

"Thank you, turn off the air conditioner, and keep the lights on." Lin Lan said.

"I'll do it." Barton turned off the induction power behind him smoothly.

Looking at everyone in the room, Lin Lan sincerely thanked them.

"Lorraine, are you going to start performing magic tricks?" Tony looked at the people in the circle of jars, "Or a new style of yoga?"

Lin Lan nodded and smiled: "Tony, I suggest you go out."

Tony said, "Oh, I'll keep my mouth shut."

"No, it's not because of this." She said, "Your blood is low now, I'm afraid your body won't be able to bear it."

Tony shook his head left and right, glanced at his teammates, put the suitcase armor in front of him, and turned on the start button.Soon, red armor covered the whole body.He leaned against the wall with his chic arms crossed, and his slightly shy voice came from the metal mask: "This will be all right."

Lin Lan looked at him for a long time speechless.

Tony said: "I remember your expression appeared when I transformed last time, maybe you will become my fan."

Lin Lan calmed down and said: "No matter what you see later, or I am doing something beyond your understanding, please be quiet. Don't touch me, definitely don't touch me, absolutely don't touch me , you just stand in this position and don't move."

Tony said, "Is it okay to go to the toilet?"

"Stark, stop joking." Steve said to Lin Lan, "We will do what you say, but if you feel any discomfort, let us know."

Lin Lan nodded and closed her eyes slowly.

Barton pulled a chair and chose a seat to sit down.

Lin Lan held her breath and adjusted her breathing. One minute later, her arms were flat on the side. Immediately afterwards, she drew a circle with her right arm above her left arm, leaving less than half an inch of space where her palms joined.Lin Lan took a deep breath, and while exhaling, an invisible barrier formed around her body, and the cold air spread out from the barrier, and the beeswax on the mouth of fifteen jars burst open.

Just as everyone was looking at each other in blank confusion, the lid of the porcelain jar tilted a gap, and dozens of colorful multi-legged insects crawled out of different jars and gathered towards Lin Lan one after another.These are all incomplete forms of Gu, but changes in form occurred during the process of swallowing each other in the container. They look like centipedes, with knots on the surface of the body, and each bug is about two inches long, each With a strange brilliance.The bugs almost covered her exposed skin tightly, except for her neck and face, Lin Lan seemed to be wearing a wriggling colorful dress.

Visually, it will definitely make anyone uncomfortable watching it.

Faced with such a spectacular but weird scene, all the superheroes endured inexplicable discomfort, tried their best to keep quiet, and grunted swallowing saliva from their throats.They were shocked by the facts in front of them, but they couldn't believe that Lin Lan would have such an ability. They really didn't know what to do except you look at me and I look at you.

Button subconsciously moved the stool towards the door, his sharp eyes did not dare to look directly at the picture in front of him.Even the black widow was startled by Lin Lan's appearance.

At this time, Nick Ferry was very fortunate that after opening the three boxes, he had done an internal scan on the contents of the bottles, and found that they all contained unknown toxins, so he did not open the cans blindly, but prepared to get the magic bottle. SHIELD Headquarters to test.It was really hard for him to imagine whether the bones of ordinary people could still be intact after these terrible bugs swarmed up.

Button rubbed his arm exposed to the air, making a cracking sound, and Natasha patted him on the shoulder to make him quiet.

"cold." He said with his mouth.

Before, the temperature in the hospital room was nearly 150 degrees Fahrenheit (about 45 degrees Celsius), and even if they stood still, sweat would keep coming out along their backs and foreheads.But now, the temperature displayed in the lower left corner of Tony's mask screen is only [-] degrees Fahrenheit (about [-] degrees Celsius), and it will continue to decrease.

Barton's physique is of the cold-resistant type. After receiving a lot of physical training for a long time, he rarely feels cold. Barton once lurked in the snowdrifts of the Arctic glacier wearing only a battle suit for five full days. Cold medicine, but even if he didn't take it, he could still lie in ambush for two days in the freezing polar region.

But at this moment, he actually felt cold.

Also suffering from the cold was Nick Ferry. He had the same feeling as Barton, even worse. If it wasn't for witnessing the changes that would occur in Lin Lan, he would immediately choose to leave this room.Nick's exhaled breath was covered with hoarfrost, not just the cold feeling on the skin, but the coldness that penetrated into the bone marrow. He felt that all the heat in his body had been evacuated.

This is not normal.

he thinks.

Natasha and Steve could also clearly feel the temperature change, but it was not as unbearable as them. Tony could not feel the coldness after cooling down in the iron armor, but saw everything through the screen.

Including the invisible energy wall around Lin Lan's body.

Jarvis analyzed the constituent elements of the bugs, but just as the AI ​​steward was trying to read the data, the poisonous bugs on Lin Lan's body gradually turned ice blue, then began to turn transparent, and finally turned into powder like glass sand Scattered around her, then dissipated in the air.

Lin Lan exhaled a long breath from her nasal cavity, made a final closing gesture with her hands, and drew a circle in the opposite direction.

The temperature began to rise rapidly, and the extreme cooling just now seemed to have never happened, and the room quickly returned to its original stuffy heat.

Lin Lan opened her eyes, feeling extremely comfortable in her body.

"It's over." She said, "I'll answer your questions, or should I explain what I did just now?" The recovered internal strength made her happy, and more importantly, after Lin Lan made up her mind not to hide herself, she was able to face it calmly.

Several people looked at each other, but couldn't make up their minds for a while.

Steve took a step forward and said, "I think you should change your clothes first, and then eat something." Looking at Lin Lan's fully healed wound, he nodded with satisfaction, "You are amazing."

Lin Lan smiled lightly.

"I don't know what to say." Barton stood up from his seat and opened the door of the infirmary, "I think I have to go down and digest it, those bugs are really... well, I also think you should change them." Lin Lan, I want to change my clothes too." Before he was cold, his chest and back were soaked with sweat, and now he felt itchy all over.

Barton swore it wasn't because of those horrible bugs.

"It's two o'clock in the morning, and we'll meet in my office in four hours. We all need to take a break." Nick Ferry walked out as soon as he finished speaking. He didn't seem to be uncomfortable with the scene just now.

"Lin, you really opened my eyes." Natasha rubbed her arm lightly, "See you at six o'clock."

Tony was still wearing the steel armor. He stood still and said nothing. Lin Lan lowered her head and said with a helpless smile, "Do you still want me to be your fan?"

Tony opened the mask, revealing a pale face whether it was from blood loss or fear: "Of course, you think I'm afraid?" In fact, he just asked Jarvis to scan Lin Lan's body, "But, to be honest Yeah, those bugs are pretty gross. I don't mean you, just the bugs, and apart from them, you're perfect."

"Really?" Steve turned his head away, "Then why don't you take off your suit?"

"The system is stuck, and I can't take it off." Tony speeded up his speech to cover up his guilty conscience, "You know, sometimes this happens, I'm testing a new model recently and updated Jarvis's system, so, I Guess I'll have to go back to my room and adjust."

Tony wanted to say something more, but he didn't know where to start. After thinking for a while, he still emphasized: "My dear, I'm not afraid, but I need time to adapt to your changes." Stepping on the sound of mechanical friction, he walked out He opened the door, and then poked his head in again, "It only takes a few minutes."

Only Steve and her were left in the hospital room, Lin Lan tilted her head and said with a teasing smile, "What about you?"

"Me?" Steve looked at the cans on the bed and said, "Of course I stayed to help you clean these up. Can I touch them now?"

"Aren't you afraid of me?"

"I've seen scarier ones." Steve could always resolve Lin Lan's uneasiness with his gentle words, "And you are not scary at all."

Staring at the pair of blue eyeballs, sincere without any hypocrisy, Lin Lan was a little stunned.She didn't understand why her heartbeat would speed up. Lin Lan believed that her internal injuries were basically healed, and she could recover completely after a few weeks of recuperation, but why couldn't she suddenly breathe now?

"Lin Lin, are you okay?" Steve put his palm on her arm, "Is there any discomfort, do you need to repeat the action just now?"

Lin Lan recovered from the trance, grabbed the jar in front of her with both hands and got out of bed: "No, no, I'm in very good shape now. You can touch them, I mean, you can help me put them in together. But you You must remember to wash your hands later, oh, it doesn’t matter if you don’t wash, your physique won’t matter.”

"Don't worry, I believe they just couldn't accept the scene just now." Steve thought that Lin Lan was frustrated by the departure of the others, so he comforted, "But their adaptability is very strong, it only takes a few minutes. "

"Thank you." Lin Lan said.

Holding four jars in his arms, Steve raised his eyebrows: "What did we promise not to say certain words?"

"Okay, this is what you should do." Lin Lan urged, patting the edge of the suitcase, "Hurry up, soldier."

Steve showed his white teeth, smiled and said, "I said, it seems that I am your chief."

"Nick, do you have anything to say to me?"

Black Widow was recruited into S.H.I.E.L.D. not only because of Hawkeye's recognition of her. The archer who showed his back to him was indeed a good man. Most importantly, Natasha also trusted Nick Ferry.She is proud of her willingness to serve S.H.I.E.L.D. without the control of the Red House.

But Nick kept the suitcase from her, which made Natasha very unhappy.

"As a commander, I think I have the right to deal with some irrelevant matters by myself." Being questioned by one's own subordinates is obviously an unpleasant experience. You know, he was threatened by Captain America yesterday.

"Yes, you are the leader, but I have to understand what kind of task I am doing." The former black widow didn't care whether the task at hand was good or bad, she didn't care about anything, "You are super angry with Lin. Ability doesn't seem surprising."

"Just because you can't see my emotions, so you conclude that I'm not surprised?" Nick was not only surprised, he thought that his 17 years of monitoring had been wasted, "Of course it's the task of protecting witnesses. I didn't do anything about the suitcase." I intend to hide it, but I think those things are dangerous, so I didn't ask Barton to tell you."

"Protection?" Natasha said, "I think it's more like surveillance. You knew from the beginning that Lin had superpowers, so that's why you summoned us?"

"No, nat, I don't know." Nick Ferry rubbed his forehead back and forth, looking a little anxious, "In fact, she shocked me very much."

"Nick, what are you trying to hide, who is that girl and what has she done?"

As keen as the Black Widow, she noticed the clues earlier than Captain America, but as an executor, she completed the task as indifferently as possible.But it's clear that Natasha isn't the killing machine she used to be, and while she does her best to get the job done, she doesn't want to be tricked.

"You don't want to know, Natasha, I swear."
