Chapter 117: The Plague

Chapter 117

One night has passed, Tongcheng has recorded more than 500 patients who died due to L virus infection, the number of newly admitted infected people is still rising sharply, and the infectious disease isolation hospital has simply not been able to accommodate so many patients, and the military has built a temporary board room in the vacant land of the isolation hospital overnight, which barely guarantees the beds of patients.

After testing, most of the original medical staff in Tongcheng have been infected with the L virus, and some medical staff have shown obvious symptoms and have to retreat from the front line. Tongcheng is only a small county town, and medical resources are already relatively scarce, although a large number of medical personnel have been dispatched from above, there is still a serious shortage of manpower.

After dawn, the military, in cooperation with medical staff, began to conduct door-to-door testing for the virus, which had originally planned to gather infected people and treat them in a unified manner to prevent further spread of the virus. However, the results of the examination are shocking, and according to the data collected so far, more than 35% of people have been infected with the L virus.

With such a high infection rate, a 100% fatality rate, and the fact that the L virus is still mutating, once the L virus spreads beyond Tongcheng, the consequences are unimaginable.

Li Kangwei is currently the first person to die of the L virus, and his wife Zeng Juan died last night, and when the source of the virus could not be determined, the military sent a team of men to Lijia Village, where Li Kangwei's household registration was located.

Everyone seems to have forgotten that Li Kangwei also has a daughter, Li Jing, as if she never appeared.

Holding a teddy bear given to her by Xiao Nan, the little girl in red clothes walked on the deserted street, humming a strange tone in her mouth and a weird smile on the corner of her mouth, "The ghost is coming...... Lalala...... All of them are going to die...... Lalala...... The ghost is coming......"

The biting wind swept up the dead leaves on the ground, and the little girl was covered with plague ghosts shaking their heads as she sang.

Said that he would rush home before dawn, but his son and daughter have not come back yet, and now the communication is cut off and the phone cannot be called, a small supermarket in the town was robbed last night, the supermarket owner was stabbed dozens of times, and he died on the spot, and so on, where is Xiao's father and Xiao's mother still staying at home?

Xiao's father went to the town to borrow a car from an old friend, and went to Anxi Village with Xiao's mother to find someone.

They had never been to Anxi Village, but Xiao's father knew the general direction, inquired all the way, and successfully found Sun Lang's house.

“…… Nan Nan and Xiaoke haven't been here, cough cough cough. ”

"How is it possible, they set off yesterday evening, it's been all night, they didn't come here, and they didn't go home......" Xiao's mother's feet were weak, and Xiao's father quickly helped her, so she didn't fall down.

Sun Lang hurriedly moved a bamboo chair for Xiao's mother to sit down, "Auntie, uncle, don't worry, cough cough, maybe Nan Nan didn't find the way last night, and went to live at other relatives and friends' houses, cough cough, don't worry, maybe they have gone back now, cough cough." ”

"Impossible! Nan Nan said that no matter whether she finds you or not, she will go back before dawn, will it be, will it be that there is something else on the way. I jumped my right eyelid all night last night, and I knew it, I knew that if something happened to Nan Nan and Xiaoke, I, I wouldn't be alive......" Xiao Mu cried out with a sigh of relief.

"Auntie, Auntie, don't cry first, Nan Nan and Xiaoke will definitely not have an accident, cough cough cough, I remember Nan Nan said that she had a friend in Dujia Village, called, called, Du ...... Du ......"

"Du Wenwen." Xiao Nan just mentioned this name last night, and Xiao's mother remembered it in her heart.

"Ahem, cough, yes, it's her, in this way, I'll accompany you to ask, and then ask again along the way, has anyone seen it, ahem, Nan Nan."

As soon as Sun Lang finished speaking, Sun Lang's mother jumped out and said that she would not agree with Sun Lang leaving the house. After a while, she said that Sun Lang was so sick that she couldn't run around outside, and if there was a three-long and two-short, or she was infected with the virus, she wouldn't be alive. After a while, she said that her man was sick and dying, and she was afraid that Sun Lang would not be at home, and she would not be able to see his father for the last time, and so on.

Unlike his taciturn father, Sun Lang's mother is a well-known shrew in Anxi Village, and before Sun Lang said anything, his grandmother rolled around to death or live, saying that she didn't agree with him leaving the house. Sun Lang's family, including Sun Lang, was very afraid of his grandmother, and his grandmother made a fuss, only to see Sun Lang dare not say much, looking in a dilemma, Xiao's father and Xiao's mother were immediately disappointed in him, and the couple turned around and left without saying a word.

Sun Lang really likes Xiao Nan and is worried about her, he wants to save a few words, but looking at his mother's fierce appearance, where does he dare to say anything?

Xiao's father and Xiao's mother asked all the way to Du Wenwen's house, Du Wenwen took the college entrance examination in other provinces, and stayed in other provinces to work after graduation, and did not come back for the Chinese New Year. Xiao Nan had been to Du Wenwen's house a few times before, and Du Wenwen's parents still had an impression of her, but Xiao Nan had never been to their house last night.

Du Wenwen's parents were also very sick, but they were much more righteous than Sun Lang, and took Xiao's father and Xiao's mother to the village to ask from door to door, and it turned out that someone really saw a pickup truck driving from the village last night. However, last night's fog was particularly heavy, and the other party only looked at the general outline of the car, and couldn't see the people in the cab at all, let alone the license plate.

“…… I saw the car coming down that road. The man pointed to a village road next to the village.

The village road is the only concrete road leading to Anxi Village. The man still remembered the approximate time at that time, which basically coincided with the time when Xiao Nan left home.

"Last night's fog was very heavy, could it be that we went the wrong way?"

"Yes, there are three or four villages next to this village road, why don't you go and ask again."

"That's all I can do, thank you so much." Although he asked for a clue, Xiao's father and mother were even more worried than just now.

If Nan Nan and Xiao Ke really went the wrong way, why didn't they return home? Something must have happened on the way, right?

Xiao's father and Xiao's mother became more and more anxious, and they didn't dare to delay any longer, so they hurriedly thanked Du Wenwen's parents and the fellow who provided clues, and went to find Xiao Nan's sisters and brothers along the way.

However, not long after they came out of Dujia Village, they found that the village road was blocked by troops, and no vehicles were allowed to pass through.

Xiao's father and Xiao's mother inquired and pleaded to no avail, and finally had to return to the town and their home the same way. Before leaving, Xiao's father and mother gave photos of their daughter, son, and vehicle to a civilian soldier, asking him to tell them to hurry home if they saw Xiao Nan's sister and brother.

Xiao's father and Xiao's mother asked for no one else, it was Liu Qiang.

After reading the official news of the Tongcheng government, Liu Qiang and Zhang Lixin realized the seriousness of the matter, and the two left Anxi Village to return to Tongcheng County as soon as possible, and got in touch with the military. Liu Qiang is a special soldier belonging to the secret operations force, and he is a native of Tongcheng, although Zhang Lixin left the special forces, but whether it is Liu Qiang or Zhang Lixin, their individual combat ability far exceeds that of ordinary soldiers.

If the danger of Tongcheng is not solved, the whole province and even the whole country may face a terrible disaster.

Liu Qiang and Zhang Lixin took the initiative to cancel the leave, and after inspection, the two were not infected with the L virus, and now they are in a special period, and they agreed to participate in the military's operation without going through too many procedures. As soon as dawn, Liu Qiang and more than a dozen of his comrades-in-arms received an order to escort experts and medical personnel to Lijia Village to find the source of the virus.

Along the way, the closer you get to Lijia Village, the more serious the virus infection will be. Seeing that this was wrong, the experts immediately asked Liu Qiang to contact the military and blockade the road leading to Lijia Village.

"Poisonous wolf, stop!" Liu Qiang saw a pickup truck parked on the side of the road, and it looked very similar to the photo given to him by the couple just now.

After the poisonous wolf stopped the car, Liu Qiang and Zhang Lixin got out of the car and took a look, the license plate was exactly the same as that provided to them by Xiao's father and Xiao's mother, the door was open, the rear wheel of the car fell into a huge water trap, but the people in the car were nowhere to be seen.

Liu Qiang and Zhang Lixin looked at it a little, and the two came to the same conclusion - Xiao Nan and Xiao Ke should have encountered something, and the two were running very hurriedly at that time.

But there is a problem with this conclusion itself, there is no problem with the car, the wallet, money, and □□ they left on the car are still there, but the people are gone.

Wouldn't it be faster to drive away if they were in danger? There were no traces of a crash around, proving that the siblings were not in a hit-and-run, and there was no trace of a fight, and it should not have been a human reason that forced them to escape, because the money and the car were left on the side of the road and no one moved.

No matter how you look at it, there is an inexplicable strangeness.

"Cobra, do you think it's too quiet here?" Liu Qiang asked Zhang Lixin.

Cobra is Zhang Lixin's code name when he was in the secret army, and the people in their team are all called code names when they go out on a mission, and Liu Qiang has developed a habit and shouted out Zhang Lixin's previous code name.

"That's right, I feel very wrong and uncomfortable here, so let's be careful and be vigilant." Zhang Lixin said.

It is a matter of life and death for the entire Tongcheng, Liu Qiang can't spend too much time and energy to find Xiao Nan's sister and brother, he can only come behind the ordinary soldiers who are responsible for guarding the road, look for clues in the vicinity to see if there are any clues about the two sisters and brothers, and he continues to move forward with the convoy.

Close to Lijia Village, fog gradually appeared around, the sky also darkened suddenly, the more you drive in the direction of Lijia Village, the thicker the fog, the darker the sky, after entering Lijia Village thoroughly, the dark fog covers the sky and the sun, the day becomes night, and the biting yin wind hits, even if Liu Qiang and others are wearing thick isolation clothes, they still feel the biting cold.

The entire convoy of six military off-road vehicles suddenly turned off in unison, the compass lost its direction, and the other instruments lost their function almost at the same time.

Liu Qiang and the others turned on the strong light flashlight, and more than ten flashlights were put together, but they only illuminated an area of less than 10 square meters. As the captain, Liu Qiang made a few gestures with his comrades, and everyone quickly took out their guns, put on their backpacks, carefully protected the experts and medical personnel in the middle, and then formed a sharp knife formation and cautiously moved forward.

The plague ghosts hidden in the gloomy aura crept in.
