Thinking of this scene, Fatty's whole body felt bad, as if there were ants crawling all over his body. The torture of skinning and deboning was the limit of most people's imagination.
"Zhu Jie and I were observing the skeleton, and then we heard crying. It was the patient who was brought to visit with us. Wearing the same hospital gown as us, the two women burst into tears, and one of the younger ones was almost paralyzed. on the ground."
"By the way, there are 10 people in the same situation as us. We are numbered from 1 to 10. I am No. 4 and Zhu Jie is No. 5. We were arranged in different wards." Tang Qisheng explained.
"The two women seemed to be frightened 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 resisting."
"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. If you get close, you can smell the smell of formalin."
After a pause, Tang Qisheng's voice became hoarse, "There is half a corpse inside the jar. The woman's corpse has no head and no lower body. The only remaining upper body limbs are twisted, and the fracture is very rough. The fluffy minced meat is just like that." It was floating in the solution, as if it had been sawed off with a big saw."
Jiang Cheng could probably guess, "Is he the person you disappeared last night?"
"Yes, that's her." Tang Qisheng's voice became more cautious, "We only confirmed later that this woman was No. 9. The two women who were frightened and cried recognized the scars on the forearms of the corpse. By the way, they Three of them are from the same ward."
"None of these are important. What is important is that this dead woman was a disciple, and she was a disciple who lived in the same era as us! This woman came in with us!"
"Judging 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 there are traces of modification on this woman's body, which can be clearly seen from the torn abdomen. , several sections of her exposed spine had undergone spinal rod surgery, and the titanium alloy pedicle screws used for fixation can still be seen in the broken spine.”
Jiangcheng 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 notice it because she was covered by a hospital gown. She is a disciple, and she is probably a disciple." A high-level disciple.”
"I suspect she was sent by the Night Watch. Do you remember those second-generation Crimson members who were rescued? This woman is probably one of the missing people."
The last words instantly alerted Jiang Cheng. He had told Tang Qisheng and Zhu Jie about the second generation Crimson. However, as soon as he entered the mission, he judged that there was a disciple lurking among his teammates, and he also identified the disciple as the second generation hidden by the night watchman. Dai Shenhong, is this guess a bit too forced?
Moreover, the second-generation Crimson Club was eliminated on the first day, which is suspicious no matter how you look at it.
Without alerting Tang Qisheng, Jiang Cheng calmly continued to ask, "Do you know how this woman died?"
"This hospital has many weird rules. This woman sneaked out of the ward without listening to the advice last night and made a noise, so she was taken away and put in solitary confinement." Tang Qisheng swallowed nervously, "We It was only when I saw the corpse that I realized that the so-called confinement was... actually made into a specimen."
Jiang Cheng couldn't help but take a breath. Guan Quan was actually imprisoned in a glass jar. The woman probably didn't 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 out of curiosity to find clues. She wanted to mess with us, but by some strange combination of circumstances, she got herself into trouble. At this point, Tang Qisheng added thankfully, "Thankfully we were very vigilant, otherwise it would have been the two of us who were put in the jar."
"What's the meaning?"
Jiang Cheng became interested. It seemed that Tang Qisheng and Zhu Jie had done something extraordinary.
"That's it. There are relatively few rules in this hospital during the day. We can also move freely, but only on the floor we are on. When I was moving yesterday, I noticed that there were not many things in the corridor, and there were some on both sides. A very old-fashioned brown-red clay flower pot with almost all the flowers inside withered. There is a tattered black abandoned shoe cabinet in the middle with a layer of dust on it. There is also a bamboo woven bag at the end of the corridor and at the corner of the stairs. A big basket with a few old umbrellas in it."
"How should I put it? I study folk customs and know a little bit about Feng Shui. After seeing these things, I felt uncomfortable all over, especially the bamboo umbrella basket. I took a closer look at it. Isn't this right? I didn’t know it by looking at it, but I found the problem after looking at it.”
"The flowers in the entire corridor are half dead, but the two potted flowers near the umbrella basket are growing very well. One on the left and one on the right. The petals are bright red, as if they were dyed."
"I knew immediately that there was something fishy, so I went up to it and pretended to accidentally push down the mud in the flower pot. Sure enough, the roots of the flower underneath were completely rotten, and the flower was already dead."
Hearing this, Jiang Cheng couldn't help but think of the rootless grass he saw in the Zhennan Hou Mansion. The roots were also rotten, but due to the constant nourishment of Yin Qi, the exposed grass leaves were green and very 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 have been around for many years, and the handles are all made of wood. There are 7 umbrellas of different sizes, and two of them are 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 looked nothing 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 of wives and children. , Also, you should have heard that you cannot open an umbrella in a closed room, especially at night, as it can easily attract evil spirits."
