Ghost soldiers?
I was stunned and said, "Are those soldiers from the underworld?"
"Roughly the same……"
Cao Fengjiao squatted down, frowned, and touched the ground a few times.
I asked her what she was doing.
Cao Fengjiao said solemnly: "After the Yin soldiers came, there was a lot of moisture on the ground - it seems that they really came."
I reached out and touched it, too.
Indeed, my hands were suddenly covered with many water droplets and became wet.
Cao Fengjiao said in despair: "It's over. The ghost soldiers are coming here at this time... I'm afraid the truth has been exposed. Sigh, what a sin."
"What's going on?" I couldn't help but ask.
Cao Fengjiao glanced at me and said with a sad smile, "Although today is Ghost Festival, there won't be so many ghost soldiers coming suddenly. The ghost soldiers crossing the boundary means that someone in Building D is doing something bad."
I said, do you know who is doing bad things?
"Of course I know." Cao Fengjiao smiled bitterly.
Seeing her like this, my heart was shocked and I said loudly, "Could it be you? Are you the one who did the bad thing in Building D?"
"No...it's not me, it's not me!" Cao Fengjiao shouted at me excitedly: "At best, I am just an accomplice. It's not me, it's not me..."
If it’s not her, then it can only be Sister Sun.
These two people have been acting suspiciously recently, as if they are plotting something.
I couldn't hold my temper anymore, so I asked her, what were you and Sister Sun doing in the underground parking lot that day?
Who is that man in black?
Cao Fengjiao looked at me in shock and said, "You were the little mouse that day?"
I sneered and said that I was not a mouse, but a cat - if you do anything against the law, I will find you out sooner or later.
If it were any other time, Cao Fengjiao would have started scolding long ago.
But now, she was uncharacteristically silent.
"You will suffer the consequences if you do evil... We'll see when the retribution comes."
Cao Fengjiao patted her butt, stood up from the ground and sighed.
Seeing that I was hesitant to speak, she waved her hand and said, "Don't ask. There are some things I can't tell you - and, with the way you are now, there is no point in telling you."
I said what do I look like now?
"You're almost turning into a zombie, what do you mean?" Cao Fengjiao regained her previous arrogance and sneered, "You've seen what old man He looks like. Soon, you'll follow in his footsteps."
I shuddered.
Suddenly I remembered that I was bitten by Cheng Xiaoyan’s grandmother just now !
what to do?
After being bitten, will I also become a corpse?
Cao Fengjiao pointed at me and said, a normal person would go into shock if he didn't die after losing so much blood - but you are just the opposite, not only did you not faint, but you are full of energy. Now, are you still hungry?
I nodded. After she said that, it seemed that she was actually a little hungry.
At this time, Cao Fengjiao made a surprising move.
She put the index finger she had just bitten in front of me and said, "Do you want to eat it?"
"are you crazy!"
I cursed and was about to push her away... Suddenly, a strong feeling of longing seemed to spread from deep within my heart.
The feeling is hard to describe. It's like after physical education class in elementary school, you're sweating and thirsty, but you have no money to buy water - while the classmates around you are drinking Coke or eating popsicles. You're so envious, but you can't even drink any.
Now, looking at Cao Fengjiao’s bloody index finger, I have this feeling.
Gurgle Gurgle——
My throat was moving, and a feeling of urge kept rising in my heart.
I licked my tongue and didn't realize that my mouth was about to bite her finger.
Snapped!
There was a burning pain on my face.
Cao Fengjiao slapped me in the face and sneered, "Look at your character. Can't you hold it back so soon?"
I woke up suddenly, covered my face, and said blankly: "I...what was I doing just now?"
"You want to suck my blood!"
Cao Fengjiao said coldly: "This is the initial stage. If you have a strong will, you can endure it... In the middle and late stages, you will lose control of yourself more and more. Have you seen old man He? You will be the next one!"
"no no!"
I yelled, feeling a sense of collapse in my heart.
I can't accept myself becoming a mentally disabled zombie who only knows how to bite people and suck blood!
How is this different from a monster?
I might as well die like this?
I looked at Cao Fengjiao pleadingly and asked her if there was any way to stop the corpse poison in my body?
"Oh, you actually know about corpse poison. Did Old Man He tell you?" Cao Fengjiao sneered, "It's useless. For ordinary zombies, glutinous rice can cure corpse poison, but you are different. The one who bit you was a yellow-eyed zombie. Glutinous rice is useless for this kind of zombie."
I asked Cao Fengjiao, what is a yellow-eyed zombie?
She said zombies are divided into five levels - white eyes, red eyes, yellow eyes, purple eyes, and flying zombies.
Generally, zombies that have reached the stage of yellow eyes are very powerful and ferocious, and ordinary talismans have no effect on them.
Moreover, after being bitten by a yellow-eyed zombie, unless you can get the blood of the mother zombie - otherwise, you can only wait to become the same kind.
When she said that, I became even more panicked.
Got Cheng Xiaoyan’s grandmother’s blood?
Is this fucking possible?
I'm afraid she'll cut me into pieces before I even get close to her?
I asked Cao Fengjiao if there was any other solution?
"There's no other way. If you want to stay alive, find the old woman as soon as possible, draw some of her blood, mix it with glutinous rice soup and drink it. The poison in the corpse will naturally be eliminated." Cao Fengjiao said lightly.
My face fell.
It’s easier said than done. How do you draw?
The old woman's body was as hard as iron and could not be cut by a knife. I even wondered if her blood was like ice.
"In short, you'd better take care of yourself. Originally, I shouldn't have told you these things, but with the arrival of the ghost soldiers tonight, I'm afraid things will change." Cao Fengjiao said softly.
What she said was incomprehensible and I basically couldn't understand her.
The only thing I know now is that if I don’t find a way to clean out the corpse poison in my body, I will turn into a monster.
A monster that bites anyone it sees.
Cao Fengjiao came up to me, patted my shoulder, and said, "Think about it carefully."
After saying that, she left.
After the storm, Building D returned to peace.
The patients were all sleeping soundly, as if nothing had happened.
I returned to the lounge and fell on the bed, feeling indescribably tired all over.
I thought I would be able to fall asleep quickly, but I tossed and turned the whole night and had nightmares.
Sometimes I dream that Cheng Xiaoyan has resurrected and turned into a zombie, and together with her grandmother, she sucks my blood.
Sometimes I dream about the ghosts of those who died in Building D. They surround me and want to kill me.
Sometimes I dream of that group of ghost soldiers circling around the lounge...
When I woke up, it was already past eight in the morning.
My eyelids felt extremely uncomfortable, as if someone had placed a red-hot iron on them, making them feel heavy and hot.
I tried to open my eyes and saw the sunlight coming in from the window...
For the first time in my life, I hate the sun so much.
My heart trembled.
Is this the reaction after a corpse turns into a corpse?
I remember that at that time, Lao He was also particularly afraid of the sunlight.
Although I am not afraid of it yet, I am afraid that in a few days I will avoid the sun.
I got up from the bed, put on my shoes, and my throat felt very dry.
It's like I haven't had any water for days and nights.
I picked up the mineral water fountain next to me and drank it in big gulps.
However, no matter how much water I drink, the dry feeling in my throat can never be eliminated.
I threw the mineral water bottle away with force, roaring and shouting loudly, my heart filled with despair and fear.
When I walked out the door, Ma Qiang came over to greet me with a smile: "Brother Tian, ​​you have dark circles under your eyes. Did you not sleep well last night?"
I looked at him coldly, said nothing, turned and walked out.
"Brother Tian, ​​let me tell you something strange..."
Ma Qiang was thick-skinned and followed him anyway.
"What's the matter?" I said listlessly.
Ma Qiang said that when he fell asleep, the jade Guanyin he was wearing suddenly became very hot, like a small fire ball, which woke him up directly.
Ma Qiang felt something was wrong. This kind of reaction from Jade Guanyin had happened in the village before, and it meant that something dirty was coming.
Then he walked to the window and took a look, and was almost scared to death.
"Guess what I saw?" Ma Qiang asked in a low voice.
I shook my head.
"I saw a group of strange people in black clothes, marching around Building D as if they were on stilts - I thought I was seeing things, so I opened the window and found that the man in black closest to me had no face at all," said Ma Qiang.
"What does it mean to have no face?" I asked.
"No face means no face. Do you know what a skull is? It's just like a skull! No eyes, no mouth, no nose, just a skull frame - damn it, I almost scared you to death!" Ma Qiang said with a pale face.
I know that the men in black walking on stilts that Ma Qiang mentioned are the group of ghost soldiers.
Unexpectedly, he also saw the Yin soldiers...
"I hid under the covers and didn't sleep all night." Ma Qiang stared at me and said, "Brother Tian, ​​did you see it too? You were so scared that you couldn't sleep all night, otherwise why would you look so bad, like you were anemic."
After he said that, I turned on the camera on my phone and took a look.
Sure enough, his face was pale, like a thin piece of white paper, and his eye sockets were sunken.
"Ma Qiang, if I want to leave Building D, will you support me?" I suddenly looked at him and said.
Ma Qiang was stunned for a moment and said, "Brother Tian, ​​why are you leaving Building D?"
"To prevent myself from turning into a monster," I said.
"What?" Ma Qiang scratched his head, obviously not understanding.
"Have you thought it through?"
At this time, Cao Fengjiao walked out of the building.
I nodded and said, "Yes, I decided to find her!"
"It's better to fight to the death than to become a monster."
"Haha, not bad, quite courageous!" Cao Fengjiao gave a thumbs up and laughed.
But this smile contained a hint of sarcasm.
"But I don't know where Cheng Xiaoyan's grandmother is now. Even if I have the courage, I can't find her."
I smiled bitterly.
"No, you can find her - she is the one who bit you, you must be able to sense her presence." Cao Fengjiao said.
She asked me to close my eyes and put aside all distractions.
The image of the old woman was on my mind.
I did as she said and closed my eyes.
At first, I felt nothing. After a few minutes, a picture suddenly flashed through my mind, as if a power source had been connected...
This scene appeared very briefly, flashing by in an instant, and I couldn't see it clearly at all!
"Appear, keep appearing..."
I held my head, muttered to myself, frowned, and tried to feel it again.
Finally, that scene appeared again...
It still flashed by.
But this time, I finally saw what was in the painting clearly.
It is an old house, a gloomy, dilapidated old house.
I opened my eyes suddenly and said excitedly: "I saw it!!"
"Do you know where she is?" Cao Fengjiao said.
I was stunned and said that I saw an ancient house, but I still had no idea where this ancient house was.
"Leave Building D and go look for it - while it's still in the early stages and we're still rational, if we wait any longer, everything will be too late," said Cao Fengjiao.
Before I could speak, Ma Qiang couldn't help but ask, "Brother Tian, ​​where are you going?"
I said it’s none of your business, just stay in Building D.
Ma Qiang got anxious and said, "No, Brother Tian, ​​if you want to go, I'll go with you! We are brothers who share weal and woe."
I didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but I also felt that there was nothing wrong with what he said.
After all, he and I had experienced the terrifying scene in the underground parking lot together.
Besides, although Ma Qiang is a bit of a pervert, he is not a bad person at heart. After getting to know him for a long time, he turns out to be a pretty good guy.
Seeing that I didn't say anything, Ma Qiang seemed to understand something and asked hurriedly, "Brother Tian, ​​are you being entangled by something dirty?"
I thought this guy was pretty smart, so I hesitated for a moment and said, "That's about right."
"Then you have to take me with you!" Ma Qiang said excitedly: "Come with me and find my grandmother. She is very knowledgeable and can definitely solve your problem."
"Your grandmother?" I looked at him in surprise.
Yeah, how could I forget.
Ma Qiang’s grandmother is a high-ranking official - maybe she has a way to help me get rid of the corpse poison?
"Don't waste your time. Once you've been poisoned by the yellow-eyed zombie, even a master-level expert can't save you... Just go find that old witch and find a way to draw her blood." Cao Fengjiao poured cold water on her.
Then I remembered that Cao Fengjiao is also a master.
If she can't solve it, Ma Qiang's grandmother must be in trouble too.
"Anyway, I'm not going to stay here anymore. I'll follow you wherever you go. From now on, I'll be your little brother." Ma Qiang said hurriedly.
I smiled and said, okay, then let’s go together so that we can take care of each other on the road.
"Before you leave, have you said goodbye to Sun Jie?" Cao Fengjiao asked suddenly.
I slapped my head and wondered how I could have forgotten about this.
He took out his cell phone and called Sister Sun.
"Hello, Zhiyong, what's the matter?" Sister Sun's pleasant voice came from the phone.
"Sister Sun, it's like this..."
I told Sister Sun that since my health has not been good recently, I would like to take some time off - at least half a month, at most a month.
After hearing this, Sister Sun's tone suddenly turned cold:
"I disagree."
"Sister Sun, I really have something to do!" I was anxious.
"I don't care what happens to you, Building D cannot be without a night watchman. Not to mention a month or half a month, even for a day is not acceptable." Sister Sun said.
I gritted my teeth and said, "What if I really want to treat you?"
"Oh, it's up to you. The hospital won't bear your mother's medical expenses by then - we may even transfer her to Building D after you leave." Sister Sun sneered and said yes.
"How dare you!!!"
I clenched my phone, a surge of anger surged to my head, and I shouted loudly.
