Chapter 19: The Corpse Area (1)

"Yi Jiahe, we're like this, aren't we?"

"What's so bad. Come on, laugh a ......"

A few minutes ago, the radio broadcast sounded in the empty Yixiang People's Hospital. When the broadcast ended, the lights went out in the hospital, and Chen Yaofei and I fell into darkness. I thought that this darkness would continue forever, but I didn't expect that it would only be thirty seconds before the lights turned on. However, once upon a time, the hospital was transformed into a chaotic and miserable place, littered with terrible red stains that terrified us. This scene is familiar to us, and it is the scene after the virus outbreak that often appears in zombie movies. At this moment, a deceased man with rotten skin and missing an eye stood up and walked slowly towards us. Everyone knew that this place could not be stayed for a long time, so Chen Yaofei and I ran until the corner. The sound of "uh-ah" behind me became farther and farther away, and when I ran to safety, I turned around to see that the zombie hadn't even walked a meter. Not to mention that its speed is really frightening, what is even more funny is that it bumps into the horizontal seat as it moves forward, and then rolls over and falls to the ground. Finally got up, Chen Yaofei and I spent more than ten seconds watching him walk a few meters away. Well, thinking that it was time for it to chase us, it got its feet stuck in the broken seats, and dragged the rows of seats, and finally fell to the ground, unable to get up or use its brains to take its feet out, just waving at us on the ground and shouting "uh-ah", like a stupid child in a difficult situation and asking for help from an adult.

The so-called people and ghosts have different paths, although it is a zombie, but I, a big living person, can't help it be bitten by it again. So, I took this opportunity to observe it and take pictures to commemorate it. After all, this is a zombie, a real zombie.

"Alright, Yi Jiahe, it's almost time for us to go. ”

"Why. It can't bite us anyway, so let me see it again. ”

"But," Chen Yaofei's tone could tell that he was very embarrassed, "haven't you thought that zombies generally act in groups?"

"Ah," I quickly stood up and turned to Chen Yaofei and asked him, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Chen Yaofei was stunned for a second, then grabbed my arm and said to me, "Let's find a safe place to hide and see the situation first." ”

"Wit. I gave him a thumbs up and followed him under the leadership of Chen Yaofei.

Chen Yaofei was right, when we turned to the corner where we had escaped from this strange zombie, there were two slow-moving zombies banging on the door in front of us. ALTHOUGH I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING - DO SOMETHING WRONG AND THINK ABOUT IT?, ALL IN ALL, WE HAVE TO BE CAREFUL, IN CASE THEY BRING IN A COMPANION, CHEN YAOFEI AND I WILL BE GAME OVER.

Without the two zombies noticing, we bypass them. This zombie is really stupid to death, lower than Chen Yaofei's IQ. We passed by them, only two meters away from them, but they didn't react, and they slammed on the door. In the face of stupid people, I always want to enlighten them. But zombies are different, after all, they are dead people. I told the cows to play the piano that they might bite them back, and I wasn't stupid enough to ask for it.

Since there are zombies here, and there are no weapons to protect ourselves, we can't stay up long. Amazingly, the space seemed to guess our thoughts and left a stick in the passage.

"This is not an ordinary stick, it is a baton specially prepared by the security guards of Yixiang People's Hospital. Chen Yaofei looked at the stick and said to me.

"Yes, it turns out that the security guards of Yixiang People's Hospital still have this kind of equipment? Hey, wait a minute, how do you know?" I looked down at Chen Yaofei and asked him.

"I've seen it. However, the security guard usually does not wear this stick on his body, but keeps it in the security room, and will only use it in special circumstances. ”

"Oh, is that so. "Boy, where did you get this kind of information?

"Yes. Let's keep it for the first time, just in case. "If it's full of zombies, I think this "unforeseen need" will come soon.

Putting away the batons, we moved forward while guarding against possible zombies. What is certain is that the zombie that was hooked on the foot will definitely summon the nearby zombies by screaming "ahhhh As for the two zombies who slammed on the door, I really can't guess what they're doing.

We cautiously approached the top of the stairs and suddenly realized that the elevator that should have been unusable was now usable.

"Don't use the elevator, if you take the elevator up, the door opens and a group of zombies pour in, and we can't escape. Chen Yaofei is right.

We took the stairs instead. The plan was to go to the fifth floor and try if we could close the sliding door connecting the passage and then use something to prevent it from opening. In this way, we can at least prevent the zombies from coming here from Building 4 on the other side. It's a risky plan, but if it succeeds, we have a better chance of surviving - the number of zombies in Building 3 is limited, and even if we had to fight them to the death with weapons, we wouldn't have to go through the terrible situation of fighting wave after wave. Of course, if this unreasonable space is even more unreasonable, for example, there is a hole somewhere in Building 3 where zombies can keep coming in, then we can only consider ourselves unlucky and find a place to spend the rest of our lives with a man and a man.

Coming to the fifth floor, the staircase door is closed.

"It can't be locked, right?"

Chen Yaofei's crow's beak was fulfilled, and the door to the staircase on the fifth floor was locked.

"Uhh......hh I looked down the stairs and there was a zombie dangling up the stairs from four to four and a half floors.

"Zombies take stairs too?"

"Will it?" Chen Yaofei leaned against me and looked down.

"Damn. If you go on like this, you will definitely have a good encounter with it. It looks like we can only go up. ”

We had just arrived at the staircase crossing of the seventh floor when a female zombie suddenly jumped out and startled us. The female zombie's eyes were gone, and a piece of skin on the left side of her face fell off, revealing flesh and blood, which reminded me of the monster who pretended to be Xie Changge. Without saying a word, I went downstairs to the sixth floor.

The sixth floor of the No. 3 inpatient building of Yixiang People's Hospital is the gastroenterology ward. The question is, what does gastroenterology mean?

"It is mainly a discipline that studies esophageal, stomach, intestine, and liver related diseases, such as gastrointestinal bleeding, gastritis, constipation, etc., and you can seek medical treatment in the Department of Gastroenterology. This is the ward of the Department of Gastroenterology, and most of the patients living in it are suffering from serious related diseases. ”

"Hehe," I teased Chen Yaofei, "you know again." ”

"I've seen it in the book, and I'm not sure if I'm mistaken. Chen Yaofei said with a smile.

Although I wanted to ask Chen Yaofei what book he was reading, God didn't give me a chance: the female zombie on the seventh floor seemed to have fallen on the way down and fell to the sixth-story staircase. Thanks to the "help" of the female zombies, we found that the zombies climbing the stairs below had come behind us. Because the female zombie fell to the ground and couldn't get up, the male zombie who came up tripped and fell to the ground. As soon as Chen Yaofei and I saw this scene, we left this "match made in heaven" and immediately fled the staircase.

Running towards the East End, we turned the corner and saw a zombie slowly walking towards us. Backwards, running, ignoring the male zombies standing up, we came to the West End. The West End was deserted.

"Find a place to hide first. With that, I tried to open the door of the ward, and when I saw what was inside, I immediately closed the door.

"Why don't you go in?" Chen Yaofei asked me.

I nodded.

"There you have it. How many?"

I held up my fingers.

"There are two, they can't be twins, right?"

I nodded.

"It's really twins. Chen Yaofei lowered his voice and said in surprise.

"See for yourself. ”

I opened the door of the ward slightly, and Chen Yaofei leaned over. In this ward, there are two zombies that look exactly like each other in hospital gowns. I'm talking exactly the same, not just the clothes, but also the face. Even though their skin is ulcerated to varying degrees, as long as they are not imbeciles and zombies, they will definitely be able to distinguish that these two men are twins.

"Death also dies together, this is the true brother. Chen Yaofei turned his head to look at me.

Bastard, see what I'm doing.

"It's time to close the door and change to the next one. "Finding the male zombie in my field of vision, I closed the door of the ward and ran to the side of the ward to open the door. The door is locked and cannot be opened.

"No, you're going to fool us. ”

The third room is locked. The fourth room is locked. When I changed to the fifth room, a zombie suddenly appeared. I snatched the stick from Chen Yaofei's hand with lightning speed and took precautions.

"Yi Jiahe, that stick, you can throw a long ......"

"Don't make noise, even if it's a short stick, you can put it in the zombie's mouth so that it can't bite us. ”

"Uh-ah......" The zombie moved towards us, and we watched intently as the zombie moved.

"Bastard dead, why do you walk so slowly. The zombie who didn't raise his arms dragged along with his hands down.

Chen Yaofei poked me in the back and said, "Yi Jiahe, it's walking so slowly, why should we wait here for it to come over and not bypass it?"

Oh yes.

"Actually, I found out a long time ago. ”

With sticks in hand, Chen Yaofei and I walked against the wall. Passing by the zombies, it spotted us, screamed "uh-ah" at us, and raised its hand to attack us. However, its movements are too slow, and we are already three meters away from it when we raise our hands.

Around the corner, there is a stair crossing at the end of the front where we can go downstairs. However, there are five zombies there, and we can't get there. As we walked, Chen Yaofei and I opened the door of the ward and cautiously probed the situation inside. About five wards away from the five zombies, one of the zombies noticed our presence and yelled at us, "Uh-ah". Hearing its call, the four zombies shouted "uh-ah" at us. For a while, the sound of "uh-ah" came and went. At this moment, we found a room with the door unlocked and the zombies inside, so we immediately slipped in and quickly closed the door.

This is a double room. The quilt on a hospital bed was stained with large red stains, which was eye-catching. There are few red stains on the floor of the ward. The glass windows of the wards were intact, but it was still pitch black. The lights in the wards weren't as bright as the lights on the ceiling when we first arrived, but they weren't dim, at least they were normal, not flickering like the ones we had seen in the twin zombies' wards.

"Yi Jiahe, I want to go to the toilet. Chen Yaofei said to me embarrassedly.

I pointed to the bathroom in the ward and said, "Isn't the toilet here, go ahead." ”

"Hmmm......"

"What's wrong?"

"I, I heard movement in the toilet, I'm afraid there's something in there......"

Hearing Chen Yaofei say this, I immediately became alert and moved softly to the bathroom door. Indeed, strange noises came from the bathroom.

"How?"

"Yes, indeed. "I pressed my door against the bathroom door to make out what it was. Half a minute later, I suddenly felt the urge to beat Chen Yaofei.

I lifted my stick and took a step back, and opened the bathroom. As I thought, there was nothing in it. The strange sound that Chen Yaofei heard just now was the sound caused by the faucet not being closed tightly and water dripping into the sink.

"I'm really convinced of you, you can be mistaken about the sound of zombies and the sound of water droplets. ”

The grinning Chen Yaofei walked into the bathroom to urinate. When he comes out, I'll go in and relax. When I came out, Chen Yaofei squatted on the edge of the door of the hospital room and raised his index finger to signal that my voice was soft. Noticing the head of a zombie outside the glass window mounted on the door, I immediately crouched down and waited for the "uh-ah" sound to get farther and farther away.

When the crisis was resolved, Chen Yaofei opened his mouth and asked me: "Yi Jiahe, how many zombies do you say there will be here?"

"How do I know. We don't even know how this zombie came to be. ”

Based on the same zombie movie plot, the hospital was attacked by some kind of virus, and then the people infected with the virus died and came back to life, becoming walking corpses thirsting for human flesh and blood. I've always had a question, why do these zombies want to eat meat? When people die, the organs of the body stop functioning, and they can't digest the meat after eating it, so they can only spit it out. Also, how do those zombies tell that a person is dead? Zombies in movies often bite people halfway through, and when they see a living person running away, they chase after them. Can they tell the difference between the dead and the living? Also, why do some zombies walk very slowly, and some zombies run so fast that they can run as fast as a sprinter. Wait, will there be any of those zombies here?

"Forehead God, won't you......"

"What's wrong?"

"Chen Yaofei, do you think there will be fast zombies here?"

Chen Yaofei lowered his head and thought about it, then raised his head and replied to me: "I don't know." ”

"Bastard, you ...... whatever you ask"

"Knock knock", it seems to be a voice coming from the wardrobe in the hospital room.

Chen Yaofei and I slowly moved to a few meters away from the wardrobe.

"Knock knock" is indeed the sound coming from the closet.

I lowered my voice and asked, "Anyone?"

The sound stops.

"It's a zombie. Chen Yaofei said.

"It's a zombie," I said, holding up my stick, "and get ready." We've got to kill it, or it's banging on the closet, and the sound will draw the other zombies in. ”

Division of labor, Chen Yaofei went to open the wardrobe, and I came to smash the zombies.

"Yi Jiahe, why don't I fight the zombies, and you will open the wardrobe?"

"It's so dangerous to open a wardrobe, no, how can such an important task be entrusted to a humble person like me? "If there is really a case, I have a place to run, but as a person who opens the wardrobe, as soon as I open it, I may suffer from the zombie pounce and bite, so it will be over.

Chen Yaofei walked to the closet and turned to look at me. I nodded to him, posing to signal that he was comfortable opening the cabinet door. Nodding in response, Chen Yaofei leaned his back against the wardrobe and faced me. What is this guy going to do? I saw Chen Yaofei raise his left hand and grab the vertical ring on the wardrobe, and open the wardrobe door at once. I see, in this way, the first thing the zombie who was locked in the closet and saw the light of day was me in front of the closet. It will regard me as its first target, and Chen Yaofei, who opens the wardrobe door and jumps from the side, jumps out of the key danger zone.

"Boy, you're smart. ”

At the same moment as he spoke, a child zombie jumped out. I waited for it, tense my nerves and staring at it as it lay on the ground.

"Uhh......h

As an adult, seeing such a small zombie, my compassion is whispering. However, my desire to survive is greater than my compassion for minors. Moreover, the fact that it is dead is unshakable.

"Yi Jiahe, what are you still doing, smashing it on the head. ”

The little zombies are approaching step by step, but I can't do it for a long time. I've got to do it, or it's going to come at me if it gets close. It's slow now, but who knows how the zombies move. Maybe when it gets close to a living person, it will move quickly and catch us off guard. So, I had to destroy it and bring it back to the underworld in the way of the movies.

Five minutes later, Chen Yaofei and I sat side by side on a fairly clean hospital bed and looked out into the darkness.

"Yi Jiahe, is this good?" Chen Yaofei turned to me.

"What's so bad about it. ”

Chen Yaofei turned around and said, "Will we leave trouble in the future?"

"I don't know. ”

Five minutes ago, when I was hesitating, I had an idea, tore off the quilt on the hospital bed, covered the little zombie, wrapped it in the quilt, and dragged it into the bathroom and locked it up.

"It's going to bite through the quilt and make a noise to attract zombies, right?"

"I'll figure it out then. ”

The two of us were silent. About three minutes later, Chen Yaofei spoke: "I think we should solve it completely to avoid future troubles." ”

"I know, I know, but I can't do it. "If the other party is an adult zombie, I will never say a word and smash its head. But it was a child of a few years old, and I couldn't bear it.

"If you do this, you're going to be doomed. Chen Yaofei stopped talking.

I sighed and lay down on the hospital bed, reflecting. I thought I could be ruthless, but I still didn't destroy it. In the movie, such people are often bitten by zombies in the later stage, and there is a high probability that they are bitten by zombies who are not ruthless in killing them. In the past, when I watched movies, I would always scold those who were indecisive for "deserving it", but now I should scold myself. I think of an Aesop fable, which tells the story of a farmer who saves a poisonous snake and is eventually bitten to death by a poisonous snake. I'm afraid I'm a farmer, and the little zombie is a poisonous snake.

Glancing at Chen Yaofei, he sat on the hospital bed with his back to me and looked out the window without saying a word. Looking at his back, I couldn't help but imagine this: Because of my untimely mercy, Chen Yaofei and I would be attacked by a little zombie at some point, and then both killed. The person who made the decision not to kill the little zombie was me, not Chen Yaofei. Chen Yaofei has no reason to be bitten back by the little zombie. It's all my fault.

"Go, you help me open the bathroom door, I'll go and extinguish it. "I won't hesitate this time.

"Squeak", the ward door is opened.

"You didn't lock the door?" I asked Chen Yaofei.

Chen Yaofei shook his head, got out of bed, grabbed the stick and shook it, and became vigilant with me. I saw a large woman squeeze into the ward, then closed the door, leaned her back against the door and let out a long breath.

"Ahh

"Living?" Chen Yaofei and I both spat out two words.

"You, too?" the woman looked surprised.

The three of them sat in the same bed, and the disheveled female nurse recounted her experience in words mixed with a slight Northeast accent:

"My name is Chen Peihua, and the villagers call me Ah Hua. About two weeks ago, something happened at the hospital. I don't know what the cause is. At that time, I was working at the nurses' station, and I heard people running down from the upper floors shouting at us, saying that someone was dead, someone was dead. We didn't take it very seriously at first, after all, it's not unusual for someone to die in a hospital. After that, there was a noise from nowhere, and the hospital gradually became noisy.

"I remember very well that there was a patient who I saw dying biting the doctor. That's a horror. Like a wild beast, he bit off a large piece of the doctor's flesh and killed the doctor. Tut-tut, terrible. When something like this happens, how can the hospital not be a mess of porridge? I saw everyone running around in the passages, and for a moment I couldn't tell which ones were dead and which were alive.

"Originally, I ran away with my nurse sisters, but on the way, I saw a few patients who couldn't move freely, so I helped them escape. Helped four, died three. I went to the first floor with the surviving one to escape from the hospital, but the exit was blocked by everyone fleeing. The south is blocked, the north is also blocked, and the east and west are blocked to a few meters away. We had no choice but to go back the way we came, taking the risk of taking the elevator upstairs to take the connecting passage.

"As soon as we got on the elevator, we saw several monsters passing us and rushing into the crowd. Don't even think about what's going to happen next. When I arrived at the connecting channel, I didn't expect groups of people to come back from the dead. There are a lot of people down there, a lot of people alive and a lot of dead, and I'm thinking about going to a higher floor to take refuge, maybe when those monsters leave, we can take the elevator back to the first floor to escape. Unexpectedly, there are monsters on the upper floors. Tut-tut, the scene was so chaotic that I still remember the pitiful look of the man who fell to the ground and begged me for help.

"After a few turnarounds, I and the young patient reached the twentieth floor. The 20th floor of our hospital is the neurology ward. When we arrived, there were several dead people wandering. When my patient and I were almost attacked by a dead man, Dr. Du from the Department of Neurology saved us. He put us in the hospital room and said he would come and take us out later. The boy and I waited for a long time, but he didn't come, so we grabbed the broom in the bathroom and planned to go out by ourselves.

"Well, it would be nice if we listened to Dr. Du. When he fled, the young man was bitten by a dead man. I fled to the first floor with the wounded lad and watched him die, and then watched him come alive and become a monster like the dead men.

"When I was in despair, my sweetheart appeared, killed the young man who had turned into a monster, and took me to safety. But where is the hospital where the dead are resurrected and the living are safe?

"My sweetheart has something to do and left me. I was worried that he, like Dr. Du, would never come back, so I kept him. But he didn't listen to me and insisted on going his own way. I don't know if he is alive now......" Speaking of this, Chen Peihua began to cry.

"You say, how did this happen? For some reason, the mobile doors in the hospital were closed, and what was even more incredible was that there was nothing to see outside the hospital. ”

"When did it happen that I couldn't see anything outside the hospital?" I asked.

"Probably, the next day. I found out something was wrong outside the hospital the day after the dead man bitten. ”

"Aunt Chen, how did you survive?" asked Chen Yaofei.

"Call me sister, don't call me aunt, I'm not more than thirty years old. Chen Peihua patted Chen Yaofei's face and replied to him, "It's a bit of brute force, I hit a monster with something, and then run away." I just spun around, waiting for someone to come to my rescue in a room without monsters. When I was hungry, I ate what I got from the commissary. And so, two weeks passed. However, I couldn't hold on any longer. Chen Peihua couldn't cry.

In the sick ward where the walking corpse wanders, it is a miracle that Chen Peihua survived, and she lived for two weeks, which is a miracle among miracles.

"Sister Chen, have you met anyone alive in the past two weeks?"

"Yes," Chen Peihua said, wiping away her tears, "most of them are dead." A few are alive, but I'm separated from them. Oh, just yesterday, I saw a patient I hadn't seen before. What's his name...... Oh, it's called Xie Changge, and he's a pretty handsome guy. ”

"Xie Changge......" The heartstrings were touched, and I grabbed Chen Peihua's fat arm and asked her: "Ah Hua, where is Xie Changge you said now?"

Chen Peihua was taken aback by my actions, pushed my hand away and said, "I don't know either." I saw him yesterday. At that time, he asked me what was going on in the hospital, just like you did. Strange to say, the exits in the hospital are locked, where did you get in?"

Nervous, I prayed that Xie Changge would never have an accident.

"We came from the elevator in Building 4. Chen Yaofei replied to Chen Peihua.

"The elevator in Building Four?"

"yes. Take the elevator from Inpatient Building 4 to the second basement floor, where there is a long passage, and at the end of the elevator we came to. ”

Chen Peihua looked up and thought, "Does our hospital have a second basement?"

In order to confirm the doubts in my heart, I asked Chen Peihua: "Sister Chen, you work in Yixiang People's Hospital, right?"

"Yes. Don't look at me like this, I'm the head nurse in Yixiang People's Hospital. ”

"What month is it?"

"I can't remember what day it is, but I'm sure it's August. The terrible thing happened in mid-August. ”

The middle of August was the period when I was stuck in a time loop? Is the time loop related to what happened here? No, there is no resurrection of the dead in the Yixiang People's Hospital as we know it. Sure enough, this is a different dimension from our world?

"I really didn't expect that a hospital that was clean and tidy a few hours ago would now be like this. Chen Yaofei said.

"How many hours ago?" Chen Peihua frowned and looked at Chen Yaofei and said, "I have been here for two weeks, and I have never seen the hospital return to a clean and tidy state. ”

"What," I asked Chen Peihua, "you mean that this hospital has been the scene of such miserable chaos?"

Chen Peihua wiped her tears and said, "Of course." Time cannot be turned back. If I can go back to the past, I must find out the source of the incident and stop it!" Chen Peihua raised her chubby arm and determined firmly.

There was a noise in the bathroom, and I was afraid that the little zombie I had wrapped in a quilt had broken free.

"What is it?" Chen Peihua turned her head vigilantly.

I explained: "Just now my friend and I met a child zombie, and I couldn't bear to kill it, so I wrapped it in a quilt and threw it in the bathroom. ”

"No, no, no, you must not show mercy. You've got to fix it right away. Chen Peihua was terrified.

"It's okay. It's super slow, and you can dodge it before it bites you. ”

Hearing me say this, Chen Peihua stood up from the bed and stepped back, stretched out her finger and pointed at me and asked, "You, you, have you been touched by it?"

"Huh?" Chen Yaofei and I were puzzled by Chen Peihua's question.

"Let me ask you, have you been touched by its skin, its organsβ€”in short, have you been touched by it?"

"No, I don't. It's a zombie, and we can't hide from it. I was joking, but Chen Peihua's face was nervous and unmoved by my joke.

"Sister Chen, Yi Jiahe is right, it is really a zombie with little danger. Chen Yaofei said.

Chen Peihua shook her head again and again, and said in horror: "Yes, that kind of monster is indeed slow, and it can't even eat meat......"

"That's not it. I said with a smile.

"But," Chen Peihua startled me with a drink, "I must not be touched by them." Once your skin touches their bodies, you'll be poisoned to death in a matter of minutes, and you'll be resurrected as a monster like them. ”

"No, won't it?" Chen Peihua said that it doesn't fit the characteristics of the zombies in the movie.

"It's true," Chen Peihua's expression didn't seem like she was talking nonsense, "I've seen the patient I helped just be touched on the arm by that kind of monster and poisoned to death." We didn't know they were poisonous, and they weren't as corrupt as they are now. I watched as a black thing rose up on my patient's hand, and then he died, and then he came back to life as a monster and bit another of my patients. ”

A "uh-ahh While thinking about how poor the soundproofing of the hospital bathroom door was, I asked Chen Peihua: "Then, we have to go and eliminate it quickly?"

Chen Peihua walked to the door of the ward and looked left and right through the glass window, then put her ear to the door and listened carefully, then opened the lock and gently opened a crack in the door to look out, and finally said to us: "There are no monsters outside." Let's get out of here quickly. ”

"Ah Hua, wait a minute, it's safe here, why should we leave here?" I asked Chen Peihua, who walked out of the ward.

"We can't stay long," Chen Peihua said to us, "If we stay in the same place for a long time, the most terrifying monster will appear and kill us." ”
