Chapter 213 No Brains, Monthly Pass Plus 5
Then Bai Yuqi pulled out an arrow from the quiver behind his back and put it on the thin superalloy steel cable.
It also confirms that this strange-looking complex instrument is indeed a bow, but the full name should be "Multi-pulley Composite Eccentric Split-Chord Recurve Bow".
Don't think that this name is long enough, according to the naming method that writes all the features and functions of the product, this is just an abbreviation.
In addition to the two eight-sided giant swords as melee weapons, Bai Yuqi also prepared a long-range secondary weapon for himself, which was designed after modifying the third-generation eccentric wheel split-string bow in later generations.
"Xingjun, something strange happened in the refugee camp recently!"
"In one barracks, there were a series of mysterious deaths of refugees. ”
"The disciple thought that someone was suffering from a contagious disease, so he quarantined and treated the refugees in the barracks. ”
Sun Laodao obviously couldn't understand what the sophisticated and complicated instrument in Bai Yuqi's hand was for, so after just looking at it curiously, he reported solemnly: "But no matter how you check it, no one is found to be sick, but every seven days there will still be a sudden death of a refugee!"
In such cold weather, it stands to reason that there is generally no possibility of a plague, at most it is just a flu.
In the past, the epidemic flu might have caused serious consequences, but with the care of the disciples of the Holy Sect of Medicine led by Sun Simiao, coupled with the addition of holy water to the supply of drinking water, in order to improve the refugees' own immunity, the spread of influenza can basically be suppressed.
That's why Bai Yuqi dared to stuff the refugees in a dense barracks with a high density to reduce consumption through central heating.
But now there is a situation where the cause cannot be found, and the healthy strong laborer dies suddenly, and it is such an accurate figure of seven days of death, no wonder it will attract the attention of Sun Laodao.
After all, so many refugees are gathered together, and the living environment is not particularly good, and some refugees who are physically weak or suffer from medical conditions will inevitably have non-combat attrition.
Even if Sun Laodao took the disciples of the Medical Holy Sect to treat him as much as possible, he could not completely and completely eliminate it, compared with the number of people who did not know how many people would freeze to death in previous winters, this was already extremely close to the normal number of natural deaths.
"Can't find out the cause of death?"
Bai Yuqi fiddled with the pulley recurve bow in his hand and stopped: "Has the autopsy been dissected?"
"It's not that the cause of death can't be found......
Sun Laodao hesitated for a moment, and then said: "In order to avoid causing panic among the refugees, although the disciple did not directly conduct an autopsy, he also used the 'medical vision' to check the situation in the deceased's body, and found that they had no brains!"
Don't have a brain?
Bai Yuqi was stunned, everyone is dead, Sun Lao said, you are a sanctimonious person and you still want to scold other people's fools?
Sun Simiao, who got a lot of medical information from Bai Yuqi, now doesn't just rely on looking, hearing, and asking people to treat people, so he talks a little half-ancient, and from time to time a medical term that others can't understand will pop up.
"It's not that the disciples say that they are stupid, but that they really don't have brains!"
"These refugees were in good health until they died suddenly, and there was no sign of death in them!"
"But every seven nights, one would die suddenly and suddenly, and the death would be very miserable, with a pale face and a dislocated jaw. ”
"It looked like he had picked his upper and lower jaws and dislocated his jaw raw, so the disciple used the 'medical vision' to check his body. ”
Seeing Bai Yuqi's puzzled expression, Sun Laodao knew that he had misunderstood, so he hurriedly reached out and tapped his forehead with his knuckles, explaining: "It's empty here, and the brain is gone!"
Can people be brainless?
Of course not! Walnuts have brains, let alone people!
It reminded him of a creature that he hadn't found until now.
Although the movie didn't mention that the face-hugging insect would eat its brains, it didn't say that it wouldn't eat it, right?
Bai Yuqi became serious, he always felt that that strange egg had something to do with the alien, after all, it was so slimy, full of a lot of slime, wasn't it?
After shaking the pulley recurve bow stretched at a strange angle in his hand vigorously, he heard a crisp "click", and the originally open bow arm folded like a vulture, shrinking into a crumpled "M" shape.
The thin superalloy steel cable is pulled by the pulley group, and the whole pulley recurve bow shrinks and tightens, although it looks unsightly, it does shrink a lot.
Hung the folded and shrunken bow backhand on the X-shaped weapon mounting platform behind him, and leaned out the quiver from his right shoulder, Bai Yuqi got up and walked briskly in the direction of the refugee camp: "Let's go, go and see!"
Sun Laodao was stunned by Bai Yuqi's vigorous and resolute style, but fortunately, the old man quickly followed.
There is a palpable atmosphere of panic in the camps, and the fear of the unknown is far greater than the reality.
The bizarre deaths of refugees, especially those that are so eerie, have seriously affected the emotions of others.
This is also because Sun Laodao has no research on psychology and has little experience in dealing with this kind of incident.
Otherwise, the relevant personnel should be isolated as soon as possible, and the spread of the news is strictly prohibited.
It wouldn't have made the whole camp as it is now, and almost everyone in the camp knew about it.
Bai Yuqi's sensitive five senses made him vaguely hear someone whispering rumors.
When he got up to pee on the night, he saw a gray ghost floating around the camp, looking for the next target who was ready to eat his brain.
There are also people who swear that they were pressed by ghosts when they slept at night, and their buttocks were still very sore when they woke up in the morning...... Uh, Bai Yuqi thinks that this shouldn't be a ghost's doing, and it seems that he has to find a way to solve the problem of the chase shop quickly.
Chai Shao and other Tang army bigwigs, who also received the news, rushed over with a large number of left and right guards, and sent additional manpower to strengthen the guarding force of the refugee camp in case of bombing the camp, but this caused more and more panic among the refugees.
After perceiving the phenomenon that the deceased had no brains, Sun Simiao asked people to dig up the body that had been buried again and check it again, and sure enough, there were no brains!
Looking at the several corpses laid out in the open air, fortunately, the weather is cold enough and they are well preserved, but the dead look is not very good-looking.
The deceased's jaw has been reset, but a little fiddling will reveal a surprised expression of "oh ho~", which is no longer a problem of jaw dislocation, but the entire jawbone has been torn off!
