Chapter 480: Terrifying Skull Disease!
In Wang Xingpeng's office, Yu Shu silently looked down at the information in his hand, and his face became more and more solemn and ugly.
According to the information, the three villages under the jurisdiction of Qilin Town, Juye County, are now all in isolation.
Cause...... It was a strange disease that suddenly appeared more than a month ago!
The strange illness appeared unexpectedly, and the symptoms during the incubation period were no different from the common cold.
So by the time the strange disease broke out completely, it was already too late.
After receiving the news, the nine departments used the fastest time to control the situation, but they still couldn't stop the spread of the strange disease, and in the end they could only reluctantly isolate the strange disease in three villages.
Three villages, a full 1,000 people.
Most of them have been infected with strange diseases, and a small number of them have not been infected for the time being, and they are also isolated in a relatively isolated part of the village.
Fortunately, since the emergence of the strange disease, until the time when the Nine Divisions controlled the situation, no one in the three villages had ever traveled far away.
This avoids the danger of the strange disease being carried to other places.
After the takeover of the Nine Ministries, the three villages with a large number of patients have been completely isolated, and even the town of Qilin has entered a state of early warning and monitoring.
Wang Xingpeng sighed deeply, with a solemn look on his face, and said: "This disease is temporarily named skull disease by us. ”
"Skull disease?"
Yu Shu couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
But seeing Wang Xingpeng nodded, he continued: "The initial symptoms of skull syndrome are no different from ordinary colds, specifically manifested as dizziness, chest tightness, rising body temperature, and general weakness...... The first phase is very short, only about five to seven days!"
Speaking of this, Wang Xingpeng's expression became more and more solemn, and he said, "Seven days later, skull syndrome has entered the second stage. Ulcers appear on the patient's body, starting from the size of a fingernail and spreading rapidly throughout the body within a few days, and in the process, the patient begins to become delirious, extremely aggressive, and accompanied by an extreme desire for flesh. ”
While speaking, Wang Xingpeng suddenly opened a video on the computer, and then turned the screen to Yu Shu.
I saw that in the video is a small farm yard that looks very ordinary.
The video appears to have been shot with a mobile phone, and the distance is very long, so the image quality is not very clear.
But you can still see the specific situation in the garden.
In the courtyard stood a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties...... No, he can barely be called human anymore.
I saw that he was only wearing a pair of tattered shorts, and almost all of his bare skin that could be seen on the outside had festered, revealing bright red flesh, as if he had been skinned.
Under the hazy moonlight, I saw that his movements looked very strange.
Squatting on the ground with his head buried between his knees, his hands in front of his face, he couldn't see what he was doing, but he kept making a weird cry of "ho-ho-ho-ho".
Suddenly, I saw him suddenly turn his head to look in the direction of the video, and a very terrifying face appeared in the picture.
It was a face that also looked like it had been skinned, and most of the pupils were only the whites of the eyes, and they were covered with bloodshots, which looked extremely hideous and terrifying.
In his hands, he was holding a hen that had only been eaten to the halfest.
The messy chicken feathers mixed with the flesh and blood slowly chewed in his mouth, and wisps of blood slowly dripped from his chin.
The video stops abruptly.
Yu Shu slowly withdrew his gaze, his brow furrowed even tighter.
It's not because I'm frightened by the horror scene in the picture, but when I see a living normal person turn into this monster-like appearance in the video, there is always an indescribable feeling of depression.
Wang Xingpeng turned the computer screen back and said softly: "This is the second stage of skull disease. ”
"Hmm. ”
Yu Shu nodded slowly and said, "And then?"
And then ...... The second phase will last about half a month, and then the third phase will begin. ”
Wang Xingpeng said in a deep voice: "Patients who have entered the third stage will quickly weaken within a day, and even the flesh and tissues of the whole body will change at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if something is sucking their lives. ”
"Hair, teeth, and nails fell off one after another, and the body was thin and shriveled, until finally, there was no trace of flesh and blood in the whole body, and it completely turned into a white bone. ”
While speaking, Wang Xingpeng took out a few more photos from the drawer and put them in front of Yu Shu.
In the photo, it is a corpse of different heights, no, a skeleton.
It's like a skull skeleton in medical school, clean, as if it had been cleaned.
But for some reason, Yu Shu saw deep fear and pain in the empty eyes of each skeleton.
"Hoo ......"
Yu Shu let out a long breath of turbidity, returned the photo to Wang Xingpeng, and asked in a deep voice, "Is the situation under control?"
"It's barely under control for the time being. ”
Wang Xingpeng put away the photos and materials, and said softly: "Including Liuguantun Village, where the epidemic first appeared, all the three villages we have neighboring have been set up as quarantine areas, and there is no illness outside the quarantine area. ”
Speaking of this, Wang Xingpeng couldn't help but pause, and sighed deeply: "However, so far, we have not found out the pathogenesis of this strange disease, we only know that the route of infection should be physical contact, but we haven't even found the original source of infection." ”
"In addition, the most terrifying thing is that once the patient is infected with a strange disease, it seems to be an irreversible process, and we have tried countless methods, but we can't effectively treat them! ”
Yu Shu's mood also became more depressed, and after a pause, he asked, "Is there anything I need to do?"
"The epidemic has been controlled in the quarantine area, and we don't understand things like this disease, and there are special people from the medical team in the Ninth Department to study it. ”
Wang Xingpeng casually handed Yu Shu a cigarette, and then said, "I told you this because I wanted to say ...... Recently, all the energy of the nine departments has been focused on the quarantine area, and there is a serious shortage of manpower, so if there are other abnormal events in the city, you may need to help deal with them. ”
"In addition, it is said that the medical team has researched that spiritual power seems to be able to restrain the spread of skull disease, and as long as the spiritual power is protected from the outside of the body, it will not be infected with skull disease. ”
After a pause, Wang Xingpeng's expression became more solemn, and he continued, "So, what if...... I mean, if the epidemic breaks out suddenly, you and other Spirit Hunters will need to work with the police and the military to protect the ordinary people of Razor for evacuation. ”
"Good. ”
Yu Shu nodded and said, "Don't worry, I understand." ”
