Chapter 1579: Inviting Evil

Imagining this scene, the fat man felt sick, as if ants were crawling all over his body. Skinning and bone removal is the limit of most people's imagination.

"Zhu Jie and I were observing the skeleton, and then we heard crying. It was the patients who were brought to visit with us. They were wearing the same hospital gowns as us. The two women cried bitterly, and one of them, who was younger, almost collapsed on the ground."

"By the way, there were 10 people who had the same experience as us. We were numbered from 1 to 10. I was number 4 and Zhu Jie was number 5. We were randomly arranged in different wards." Tang Qisheng explained.

"The two women seemed to be scared and didn't say anything when asked. I noticed that they looked at a specimen jar in front of them from time to time, as if they were very resistant."

"This specimen jar is large and relatively new. There is no dust on it. What's more important is that there are wet marks on the outside of the jar wall and on the ground. You can smell the smell of formalin when you get close."

After a pause, Tang Qisheng's voice became hoarse, "There is half a corpse in the jar, a woman's corpse, without a head or lower body. The only remaining upper body limbs are twisted, and the fracture is handled very roughly. The flocculent meat is floating in the solution, as if it was cut off with a big saw.

Jiang Cheng can probably guess, "Is it the person who disappeared last night?"

"Yes, it's her." Tang Qisheng's voice also became cautious, "We only confirmed later that this woman is No. 9. The two women who were scared and cried recognized the scar on the body's forearm. By the way, the three of them are in the same ward. "

"None of this is important. What's important is that this dead woman is a disciple, and a disciple from the same era as us! This woman came in with us!"

"From the facilities of this hospital, the timeline of the world we live in is at least several decades away from the real world, but this woman has signs of transformation. It can be seen clearly from her broken abdomen that several sections of her exposed spine have undergone spinal nail rod surgery, and the broken spine can also be seen in the titanium alloy pedicle screws used for fixation. "

"Jiang Cheng didn't understand these things very well, but Tang Qisheng's attitude was very firm, "Also, this woman's upper body was severely eroded. We didn't find it because of the hospital gown before. She is a disciple, and it is very likely a high-level disciple. "

"I suspect she was sent by the Night Watch. Do you still remember the rescued second-generation Crimson members? This woman is very likely one of the missing people.

" The last sentence instantly alerted Jiang Cheng. It was true that he and Tang Qisheng had talked about the second generation of Crimson. But he judged that there were disciples lurking among his teammates just after entering the mission, and he also identified the disciples from the second generation of Crimson hidden by the Night Watch. Wasn't this guess a bit too far-fetched?

Moreover, the second generation of Crimson was eliminated on the first day, which was very suspicious.

Without alarming Tang Qisheng, Jiang Cheng continued to ask calmly: "How did this woman die? Do you know?"

"This hospital has many strange rules. This woman sneaked out of the ward last night without listening to the advice. She made a noise and was arrested and put in solitary confinement." Tang Qisheng swallowed nervously, "We also found out when we saw the body. It turned out that the so-called confinement was actually... made into a specimen."

Jiang Cheng couldn't help but take a breath. The solitary confinement was actually put in a glass jar. It is estimated that the woman did not expect such an end.

"By the way, I have a basis for suspecting that this woman is a night watchman. She sneaked out of the ward last night not for no reason, nor was she curious about clues, but she wanted to mess with us, but by mistake, she got caught instead." At this point, Tang Qisheng added with relief, "Fortunately, we were very vigilant, otherwise we would have been the two of us in the jar."

"What do you mean?"

Jiang Cheng became interested. It seemed that Tang Qisheng and Zhu Jie had done something extraordinary.

"It's like this. During the day, there are relatively fewer rules in this hospital. We can move around freely, but only on our floor. When I was moving around yesterday, I noticed that there were not many things in the corridor. There were some very old-fashioned brown-red clay flower pots on both sides, and the flowers in them were almost all withered. In the middle, there was a tattered black abandoned shoe cabinet with a layer of dust on it. At the end of the corridor, at the corner of the stairs, there was a large bamboo basket with a few old umbrellas in it."

"How should I put it? I study folk customs and know a little about Feng Shui. After seeing these things, I felt uncomfortable all over, especially the bamboo umbrella basket. , I looked closer and took a few more glances. I didn't know until I looked, and I found the problem. "

"The flowers in the whole corridor were half dead, but the two pots of flowers near the umbrella basket were growing well. The petals of the two pots of flowers were bright red, as if they were dyed. "

"I knew there was something fishy, ​​so I went up and pretended to accidentally tap the mud in the flowerpot. Sure enough, the roots of the flowers below were rotten, and the flowers had died long ago. "

Hearing this, Jiang Cheng couldn't help but think of the rootless grass he saw in the Zhennan Marquis Mansion. The roots were also rotten, but due to the continuous nourishment of Yin Qi, the grass leaves exposed outside were green and lush.

"There is something wrong with that umbrella basket. There is something inside that is constantly emitting yin energy." Talking about this, Tang Qisheng's voice was full of determination, "I took a closer look and saw a total of 7 umbrellas in it, all of which were very old. The umbrellas were several years old, and the handles were all made of wood. There were 7 umbrellas of different sizes, and two of them were almost falling apart, until I saw the last umbrella.”

Tang Qisheng's voice became weird, "It was a black umbrella, pressed at the bottom. It didn't look special, but the umbrella's strap was very strange. It was made of a very thick hemp rope. "

"The hemp rope tied the umbrella very firmly, and there was a dark red color on it. It didn't look like blood, but more like it was coated with a layer of cinnabar."

Jiang Cheng still knew the principle of cinnabar to ward off evil spirits. He frowned and asked, "What is hidden in this umbrella?"

"I'm afraid that's the case. Umbrellas are taboo as they cover the sky and the earth. Among the people, there are many opinions. Don't give umbrellas as gifts. The word "umbrella" means "falling apart". Giving it as a gift is harmful and may cause separation. , and you should have heard that you cannot open an umbrella in a closed room, especially at night, as it can easily attract evil spirits."
