Chapter 214: Brain Eater: Monthly Pass Plus 6
Bai Yuqi frowned and examined the corpse with medical spells such as [Doctor's Vision] and [Judging Injuries].
Although these spells are used to diagnose illnesses and injuries, isn't there a forensic specialty among doctors, so is there anything wrong with using professional knowledge?
But just like the diagnosis reached by Sun Simiao, who also mastered various medical spells, these corpses were normal except for the absence of brains, and judging from the condition of the corpses, they were even healthy and strong before their deaths, which is not common among refugees.
So, when that "face-hugging worm" eats its brain, do you still have to pick a healthy and strong brain to eat?
Conventional inspection methods were ineffective, and Bai Yuqi could only resort to some unconventional methods, such as chanting in a low voice, using his fingers to draw spells in front of him, and unleashing a spell called [Dead Man Talk].
This was one of the kinds of spells that Bai Yuqi felt was useless...... What can you do talking to dead people? Aren't you panicking?
Since he started to learn arcane knowledge, he has been too lazy to die in the system, and every time he recommends skills to him one by one, one by one.
Therefore, in his spare time, Bai Yuqi will browse through the various spells in the list that comes with the system and can never be pulled to the end.
Don't want to be able to completely memorize all the spells, at least make a certain impression through the description of the spells he has seen, so that when he needs spells with certain effects, he can at least take the initiative to ask the system and activate them, so as not to passively wait for this lazy system to recommend it.
But the problem is that the skill list of the system not only can never be turned to the end, but every time it is reopened, the content in it is absolutely not repeated, so Bai Yuqi has not finished reading it until now.
[Dead man talking] This spell was what he saw when he was flipping through the list, and he complained about it at the time, so he was very impressed.
Fortunately, most non-offensive, non-scale, non-material, non-material-altering spells do not require much faith to activate.
Bai Yuqi also figured it out, why didn't the system set the activation price of those spells so high, just look at its list that can never be pulled to the end, anyway, you will never be able to activate it, first set a symbolic "trial price" to attract you to activate, and then wait for you to take the bait before officially charging it.
[Conversation with the deceased] is not to let the corpse speak directly, but to let you know some information about what it has experienced through some mysterious means, such as saying something it saw before it died, or who killed it and so on.
This spell is good for criminal investigation, but unfortunately Bai Yuqi didn't get much information from the corpses, they were all killed in unconscious sleep, and the only memory is a feeling of suffocation.
In addition, these deceased all have a common memory, that is, they found that in the labor group to which they belonged, there was a taciturn "weirdo", who wrapped himself tightly all day long, neither spoke nor communicated with others, and seemed very withdrawn and unsociable.
Interestingly, this person is usually the previous deceased!
In other words, the "face-hugging worm" still has a certain amount of wisdom, and it also knows how to hide its existence.
This means that it must still be hiding in the body of the other refugees in this barracks, and one of the remaining people must have been parasitized by it!
Standing up sharply from in front of the corpse, Bai Yuqi turned around and asked Sun Lao, "Where are the quarantined refugees?"
"Because I was worried that the refugees were suffering from a contagious disease. ”
Sun Lao said: "So the disciple asked them to take them to the health center, and let the soldiers of the left and right guards guard them......"
Bai Yuqi asked, "You haven't checked their brains?"
Sun Laodao was asked for a moment, reacted to Bai Yuqi's meaning, and hurriedly said: "The disciple has checked it, no problem!"
"Oops!"
Bai Yuqi couldn't help frowning.
If that "face-hugging worm" has the wisdom of knowing how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and kill people to hide themselves, the quarantine action must have alarmed it.
In addition, before Sun Laodao came to report to him, he had already observed those refugees for a few days, even if it was originally hidden in this group of refugees, it was estimated that it would have been transferred at this time!
"Immediately surround the quarantine facility!"
Bai Yuqi turned his head to Chai Shao and other Tang army generals who rushed to hear the news and ordered: "Including those soldiers who guard the health center, as well as everyone who has been in contact with refugees, they must be taken care of!"
Judging from the information obtained by [Conversation with the Deceased], although this "face-hugging worm" can burrow into a person's brain through the mouth, it needs the target to be asleep or unconscious, so it can only be expected to move too far.
Before Chai Shao and the others knew about Xuanqi Xingjun, they were looking for the things in the strange egg that fell from the sky, but they never found any trace of it.
At this time, seeing his extremely serious orders, he did not dare to slack off and hurriedly sent people to surround the health center, as if he were facing a great enemy.
Because they were worried that the quarantined refugees would cause chaos in fear or take advantage of the chaos to escape from the health center to spread the epidemic, the refugees, who numbered less than 100 people, were guarded by a team of 50 Tang soldiers.
When these Tang soldiers saw their comrades surrounding them, they couldn't help but panic while being stunned, not understanding what was happening.
"Don't be nervous!"
"That 'Brain Eater' may be mixed in with you, just check it out and find it. ”
After explaining the situation a little, Bai Yuqi explained: "So now everyone puts down their weapons and lines up to come to me one by one to receive inspections......
Before he could finish his words, he suddenly reflexively raised his hand and grabbed an arrow from the side, and the arrow was less than half a foot away from his temple!
Everyone turned their heads in anger to look in the direction where the arrow was fired, but saw a black shadow rushing towards the wall of the clinic at lightning speed!
Bai Yuqi instinctively used the [Arrow Shooting Technique] to shoot the arrow in his hand towards the fleeing figure, but unfortunately he was one step slower and plunged into the rock of the wall.
With the trembling sound of arrows, the figure rushed over the wall first, causing the angry shouts of the Tang soldiers surrounding the health center outside the wall.
Bai Yuqi didn't have time to say anything, he also rushed to the wall and turned over and climbed up, and with a glance, he found that the figure that had knocked into the Tang Dynasty soldier was rushing in the direction of the other barracks in the refugee camp!
The backhand took off the pulley on the back and shook the bow hard, and at the same time as the bow body "clicked" and unfolded, the right hand had quickly pulled out an arrow from the quiver behind the shoulder, and opened the bow in one go.
