Chapter 62: Mental Hospital
I can control my body to twist into any shape, which is easier than before.
I can only let one person see my anomaly.
I feel that if I were to meet a snake monster now, I would probably be able to tear off its scales easily, and my teeth would become extra sharp.
Dong Jinshu turned to look at me, her cheeks were slightly red and she said, "Master, thank you."
I waved my hand, pushed open the door, and walked in.
Dong Zhonghua was lying on the bed, motionless, with an oxygen mask on his face, and the instrument beside him showed that his heartbeat was normal.
I looked solemn and frowned.
Obviously the snake demon has been eliminated, why does Dong Zhonghua's death energy become more and more serious?
If this momentum continues, Dong Zhonghua will undoubtedly die within two weeks!
I suddenly remembered that before Orochi died, he was full of resentment and said in a strange tone: "Dong Zhonghua must die!"
I drew a soul-calming charm in the air and printed it on Dong Zhonghua.
The effectiveness of the Soul Calming Talisman without the talisman paper is greatly reduced, but it also burns away some of the edges of the dead energy.
This means that Dong Zhonghua’s death aura comes from ghosts!
Is the ghost of the snake demon still lingering, or is there another hidden agenda?
I think I have to go find that monk, he probably knows something.
Dong Zhonghua’s statement about the monk’s use of ritual tools to hold down the construction site was contradictory.
Maybe there are some unknown secrets hidden in it.
When I arrived at the mental hospital, it was already noon.
This place is actually more remote than Dong Zhonghua's construction site.
After getting off the bus, you still have to walk a while to get there.
There are vast tracts of cornfields that are endless as far as the eye can see. The corns have not yet tasseled and are so green.
When the wind blows, the corn leaves sway with a huff, just like the fan on the top of the classroom in childhood, spinning leisurely.
There are several scarecrows standing on the edge of the cornfield.
They wear tattered clothes, with buttons as eyes and lotus leaves as hats.
The buttons are sewn on the straw with cross stitches, and the thick black thread glows with black light.
They stood upright on the spot. Looking from a distance, they thought they were humans.
I glanced at the scarecrows several times, and I always had the illusion that they were staring at me.
As I passed by, I turned around suddenly and looked at the row of crooked button eyes.
Did the buttons look like this when I saw them just now?
I am not sure.
I sneered, feeling that I was too sensitive. There was neither black smoke nor ghosts on this scarecrow. It was just used by locals to keep away birds.
This time I came to the mental hospital by myself.
I asked Zhang Geng and Bai Luoxin to stay in the hospital. On the one hand, they were optimistic about Dong Zhonghua and would call me if anything happened. On the other hand, they wanted to see if they could find any trace of the college contractor Guo Xuehai.
I continued walking forward and saw an old locust tree standing not far away.
The branches are lush and leafy, and the roots are intertwined. Countless branches branch out from the crown, and each branch is covered with green leaves and bright red cloth strips.
The breeze blew by, and the red cloth strips swayed gently, like hands stained with blood, swinging back and forth.
I climbed up the tree in twos and twos, picked up a red cloth strip and looked at it.
It was damp, sticky, and the red cloth stained my hands red.
I looked at the red stain on my hand, put it to my nose and smelled it.
The fishy smell is very light, with a hint of soft sweetness.
is blood!
I lowered my head, but felt my heart was clenched so hard that I almost fell off the tree.
What did I see?
Wherever there are red strips of cloth on the tree, they are clearly densely packed with human heads!
All heads were shaking, all looking straight at me.
I just felt my scalp was numb and my whole body felt cold.
I clearly didn’t see any abnormalities, so why do these things appear?!
I swallowed, rubbed my eyes, and when I looked again, everything was back to how it was before.
Only the bright red strips of cloth fluttered in the wind, mocking my random thoughts.
I took out a soul-calming charm and stuck it on the old locust tree.
The Soul-Calming Talisman was burned out, but there was no sound from the surrounding area.
It seems like all the evil spirits and ghosts are just my imagination.
I took out a stack of talismans and pasted them all against the old locust tree.
However, they fell lightly to the ground and were blown away by a strong wind before burning.
The talismans fluttered one after another and turned into a pile of waste paper in the wind.
I shuddered, jumped off the tree, and backed away.
The old locust tree at this time was no different from before, but it made me feel extremely eerie and eerie.
Fu Lu was unable to resist, and I lost my greatest support.
I kept backing up, only to hear a muffled groan.
I hit someone.
I turned around and whispered: "Sorry."
It's a nurse wearing a white coat and hat.
She frowned and looked at me as if I was crazy.
She said: "Are you here to see a doctor?"
I was speechless. It seemed that she thought my behavior on the old locust tree was a bit strange.
I didn't explain, I just said that I was here to find someone.
Deep down in my heart I was a little confused, why was she walking so lightly and I didn't hear her at all.
The nurse then laughed and said that she was a trainee nurse and had just come here.
The location of the mental hospital is indeed too remote, and it is easy to get lost if you walk alone.
She took me to the mental hospital, checked me in, and led me through the corridor.
This corridor is very long and there is no sunlight.
There are small cubicles on both sides of the corridor.
There are people locked up in every cubicle.
Some of them sat silently on the bed, motionless, like scarecrows in the cornfield;
Some leaned against the wall, banging their heads again and again;
Some made weird laughs and shouted something vaguely.
A woman with a pretty face grabbed the railing and shouted at me: "Murder! You killed my child! You will not die a good death!"
I turned my head to look at her. Her face was so unfamiliar, but her expression was familiar enough to reveal malice.
The nurse said to me mysteriously: "Don't worry about her. I heard that this woman gets sick every day. She was a scientist before. I heard that she has also done gene editing experiments on the combination of orangutans and humans..."
Scientist? Orangutan experiment?
I hesitated and said, "Did she raise that man-eating chimpanzee?"
The nurse nodded and said with a gossipy face: "Yes, I heard that the chimpanzee had an affair with her, otherwise she wouldn't have gone crazy..."
I turned my head and looked at her steadily: "Do you have any evidence?"
"What……"
"You said they were having an affair, do you have any evidence?"
"I also heard..."
"Without evidence, it is insulting and slanderous. Talking too much will do you no good."
Rumors come so easily, are so unreasonable, can be concluded without evidence, and can gain attention by being cunning and curious.
The nurse became angry and frowned, hating me for ruining her gossiping mood.
The nurse stopped talking, but I stopped.
I walked to the woman's door, looked at her and said, "I'm sorry."
