Fourth Hospital Patient Exchange Forum

Chapter 30: Plague Village 6

The deathly silence in the mourning hall even shocked Yu Xiao, who was always good at shocking others. Everyone was dumbfounded and looked at Luo Jin with blank expressions.

Lu Xun finally came to his senses after a long time. He suppressed the three views that were on the verge of breaking, and asked incredulously, "Are you crazy?"

"No." Luo Jin was still very calm, he looked at Gu Jingrong, "Do you agree?"

Gu Jingrong: "..."

The five left the village chief's house together, and Gu Jingrong almost fainted from crying in the mourning hall. When his mother and the villagers came back, they saw Gu Jingrong crying into tears. Everyone praised him for his filial piety, and praised him as a great dutiful son.

The five of them returned to their residence, at this time Lu Xun also figured out what Luo Jin meant. After he understands, he also knows why Luo Jin did what he did, but understanding does not mean accepting, he always feels weird, and everything is wrong.

The current atmosphere is rather delicate, the five of them didn't speak, and just found a place to sit after returning.

Of course, their reasons for sitting blankly and their moods are all different. For example, Lu Xun and Zhao Lan are silent in shame, Yu Xiao is thinking about what to do next, Luo Jin is simply in a daze, Zhou Xiaozhen is because everyone No one spoke so she stopped talking.

They just sat there in silence until Zhang Feng and the others came back.

Zhang Feng was the first to walk. He had just turned a corner when he saw Zhao Lan sitting at the door leaning on the door frame. The scene of her breaking the kitchen knife with bare hands yesterday was vivid in my memory, and Zhang Feng immediately slowed down his pace.

Wang Yang was the second one. He saw five people sitting at the door with their heads drooping. He thought they were hungry, so he said, "I'm sorry, sorry for the delay. You're all hungry, I'll cook. "

Zuo Qing and Sun Yun were holding hands. Since they had done nothing wrong, although they were careful, they were not too scared. Walking to the door, Sun Yun said: "Today we checked according to the list. The first person in the village who died of illness was Gu Ban. His whole family died of illness, and the villagers didn't know what happened to him. Later we I went to the cemetery again, but it was not convenient during the day, so we planned to dig up the body at night to have a look."

After she finished speaking, she looked at the five people with implied expectation, but they still didn't respond.

Sun Yun bit his lip, and said cautiously: "Did you find anything today?"

"I didn't find out." Zhou Xiaozhen said: "We are mainly going to solve one thing today."

"One thing?" Zuo Qing asked curiously, "What is it? Can you let us know?"

"It's not impossible..." Zhou Xiaozhen thought for a while, this matter is not easy to describe, even if she uses profound Chinese, it still seems poor, "In short, you will know soon."

She said that other people didn't dare to follow up and ask. After all, they might be at the level of big bosses, or from the Fourth Academy. They have more experience than them, so they didn't dare to ask more.

Because of the death of the village chief, the village was full of fuss that day. Yu Xiao planned to ask Gu Jingrong about the plague tomorrow, so he could go to the cemetery with them tonight.

In such a weird atmosphere, everyone had their meal. Zhao Lan suggested that everyone rest for a while and wait until late at night before going out.

But everyone can't sleep at this time even if they have iron-clad mentality, except for Yu Xiao.

Yu Xiao was woken up in the middle of the night, she rubbed her eyes and followed the crowd along the wall to the cemetery at the edge of the village. Zuo Qing and the others visited this place once during the day, and there is a cemetery just across the river.

The moon in the sky is very big and round, and it is faintly covered with a layer of blood, which is unlucky to look at.

The nine people stood by the river, Yu Xiao asked, "Where's the bridge?"

"No...no bridge." Zhang Feng said: "I'll find it during the day, there is no bridge."

"It shouldn't be." Lu Xun rubbed his fingers unconsciously, "This is the cemetery in the village, how can they get there without a bridge?"

"No...don't know."

"Tsk." They frowned in embarrassment one after another, "How should we get there?"

Yu Xiao asked: "You have been here during the day, is the river clear?"

"It's very clear." Zuo Qing said, "It looks completely natural and pollution-free."

"Okay, let's go there." Yu smiled.

"Ah?!" Everyone was shocked, and Wang Yang said in fear: "It's so dark in the middle of the night, what if there is something dirty in the river..."

"If you're afraid, just stay here." Lu Xun also agreed with Yu Xiao's method, saying that he had already started to take off his shoes.

Seeing them take off their shoes, Wang Yang was in a hurry. As soon as he turned his head and saw Zhang Feng taking off his shoes, he couldn't help it immediately, "Old Zhang, you want to go there too? Aren't you afraid of ghosts in the water?"

Zhang Feng took off his shoes and said, "Even if there are ghosts, it's safer to be together than to be alone on the shore."

"..."

What he said made sense, and Wang Yang also began to take off his shoes.

In the middle of the night, the river was cold, and the nine people crossed the river together holding hands. In the quiet night, there was not even the sound of insects, only the clacking sound of legs walking in the water.

"Actually... this feeling is quite special." Sun Yun took Zuo Qing with one hand and Zhao Lan with the other, "I have lived in the city since I was a child, and I have never played in the countryside. Later, when I came to the Fifth Hospital, I was always thinking about I don’t know what’s going on, but I feel quite relaxed when I’m with you this time.”

Zhou Xiaozhen said: "Because we feel safe with us."

Sun Yun thought about it, and it was indeed so. Among other things, there is one of them who can break a kitchen knife alive, and another who runs after ghosts alone in the middle of the night. There is nothing more reassuring than this.

She smiled slightly, "You're right."

Zuo Qing also said with a smile: "With you guys here, ghosts probably wouldn't dare to approach."

"That's not necessarily true." Zhou Xiaozhen said and looked at Yu Xiao, "Sister Xiao, I feel like something is grabbing my left ankle, I don't know if it's a ghost."

Everyone stopped immediately.

Yu Xiao let go of the hands of the people on both sides, bent down and reached into the water to touch Zhou Xiaozhen's ankle. Before she touched her ankle, she touched a round thing that looked like a watermelon.

She didn't think much of it and grabbed it directly.

"Wow!"

The moonlight shone on the water, creating ripples. Everyone watched as Yu Xiao bent down to touch something in the water, and then she straightened up and grabbed something that looked like black mud and came out.

The slime was roughly in the shape of a human being, but after being picked up by Yu Xiao, it suddenly made a strange sound.

"he he he he he…"

Zuo Qing and the others retreated in shock, and because they were unable to walk steadily underwater, they supported each other and stopped after taking two steps.

The pitch-black thing giggled for a while, and suddenly realized something was wrong.

Taking a closer look, the guy holding it was looking at it coldly, motionless and as steady as Mount Tai. The few people around her were also indifferent, and they all looked at it very calmly.

The pitch-black thing stopped abruptly in a low voice, and a trace of embarrassment emerged from the bottom of my heart.

Zhou Xiaozhen stared at the black mud-like thing with wide eyes, and asked curiously, "Is this what water ghosts look like?"

Lu Xun said, "I don't know if it's a water ghost, but it's a ghost anyway."

What? ! How dare a mere living person despise me like this? ! The black mud was furious, and the boss opened his mouth so much that it could fit a basketball into it, and he wanted to swallow the head of the guy who was holding him in one gulp.

The mouth has just been opened to the maximum, and I haven't had time to swallow it yet. It saw that guy holding a piece of yellow talisman paper in his other hand, and the yellow paper trembled slightly in the breeze, like a butterfly about to fly high.

"..."

Too much, it's just a poor ghost...

On the withered grass on the other side of the river, nine people formed a circle, and in the center of them was a ghost that looked like black mud.

Yu smiled and said, "Who will ask?"

"Let me come." Lu Xun volunteered, pointing at the ghost, and said, "You, tell us where the plague in this village started."

The ghost is very scared, it doesn't know anything, it's just bored and hungry, people should be fed to ghosts.

"Say it or not?" Facing Gui Lu Xun, he showed a different side from usual, "Isn't it hard-talking?"

He took out a pair of transparent gloves as thin as onion wings and put them on his hands. Then he grabbed the ghost and began to serve him with fists.

"Say it or not? Say it or not? Say it or not..."

"Woooooooooooooooooooo..."

The shrill cry wafted in the night sky, which really made those who heard it sad, and those who saw it would cry.

I don't know if this ghost is stupid or can't speak. He was so deformed by Lu Xun that he didn't say a word. He is really a spineless ghost.

"Forget it, don't waste time on it." Yu smiled and said, "Let's go to the cemetery."

"Yeah." Lu Xun nodded, and said, "Then what about it?"

Yu Xiao stared at the ghost worriedly, "Is there anything that can lock it up and take it away?"

Everyone was worried, ghosts are not ordinary things, ordinary things can't be locked up.

At this moment, Luo Jin, who had been silent all night, said, "There is a pressure cooker in the house, shut it in and put a talisman on it."

Great idea!

Yu smiled and looked at him appreciatively, she admired such a quick-witted guy.

After that, they dragged the ghost to the cemetery, and the cemetery was full of grave bags, some with tombstones, some without. The nine people scattered around, and finally Zhang Feng found out, "Stupid! Stubborn is here!"

Everyone gathered in front of the old-fashioned tombstone. According to the list, this was the first person in the village who contracted the plague and died of the plague.

Lu Xun said, "Let's dig."

After finishing speaking, Zhao Lan started to roll up his sleeves, Wang Yang said: "Oh, of course we men do this kind of rough work, you girls are strong..."

Before he finished speaking, he remembered the scene of Zhao Lan breaking the knife with his bare hands, and he couldn't say anything after that.

It was still Lu Xun who said, "You guys caught the ghost, so leave the grave to us to dig."

Originally, Zhao Lan didn't really want to dig a grave, so she and Yu Xiao stepped aside to watch them sweat profusely.

A grave was soon dug out. Yu Xiao held his nose and came to the edge of the pit. Luo Jin was dragging the coffin out of the pit by himself.

The coffin was opened, and a foul smell came out.

Yu Xiao was so smoked that he rolled his eyes, and it took a while for the smell to dissipate. Only then did everyone gather again, only to see a rotten corpse lying quietly in the coffin. Everything else is normal, only the position of the head is completely destroyed, as if smashed to pieces by a heavy hammer.

Zhao Lan asked suspiciously, "What kind of disease can change a person's head like this?"
