Chapter 20: The Corpse Area (2)
It was past nine o'clock in the evening. Running for your life in a hospital where zombies are present can make you feel like time flies slowly β at least that's how I feel.
Under Chen Peihua's leadership, we moved from the sixth floor of Inpatient Building No. 3 to the seventh floor of Inpatient Building No. 3. The five zombies at the staircase were nowhere to be seen, and we were able to get up to the stairs. I wanted to move to a new ward, but the seven floors we tried were locked.
Ms. Chen said she also did not know why the wards were locked. "Monsters, what you call zombies, the day they appeared, I was pretty sure that it wasn't so dark outside the hospital, and there weren't so many locked doors inside the hospital. Whether or not people can't leave the hospital from the next day is not 100% certain. But the day after the zombies appeared, we really couldn't leave the hospital. "A slow-moving zombie passed by us, and after it left without noticing our presence, we came out of the room at the nurse's station.
"In the hospital the next day, tsk, that miserable. Patches of ...... everywhere Alas, what miserable. The survivors fled the zombies and scattered unconsciously, not knowing what happened in the end. At that time, I heard a doctor say that there was a cause for this tragedy. I didn't hear what he said, but I heard something strange from another doctor...... "Chen Peihua approached us like a gossip woman and whispered to us, "The doctor said that this hospital is cursed. β
"Cursed, by whom?" I asked Chen Peihua.
"How do I know? Of course, I went to the doctor to ask him why. Curiosity drives you. Unexpectedly, when I found him, he had already been gnawed off by the monster and couldn't live. β
After confirming that there were no zombies nearby, Chen Yaofei and I followed Chen Peihua up the eighth floor through the stairs next to the elevator. The eighth floor of Inpatient Building No. 3 is the gynecological ward. In the eastern part of the gynaecology ward, we found an unlocked and secure ward and immediately moved in.
Everything in the ward is fine, except for the electric lights, which are constantly flickering.
After confirming the security of the area, I asked Chen Peihua: "Ah Hua, can you tell me more about Xie Changge?"
"Done. β
Chen Peihua locked the door and came to the hospital bed to sit down and said to us: "I saw Xie Changge yesterday. Time, it should be around nine o'clock in the evening, at least that's what Xie Changge himself said. Most of the electronic screens in this hospital are broken, but some of them are still easy to use, and you can see the time, but I didn't see it when I met Xie Changge.
"He's a very handsome guy. I could tell at a glance that he was short-sighted, because he always squinted slightly when looking at the vista. He said that he had intruded here by accident, from someone else on a different plane. Naturally, I didn't believe itβand now that I see you, I believe himβand I don't believe him, but as living people, it's only natural for us to help each other. His left arm was in a cast, and I could tell that his arm was broken. He himself said that it was fine, saying that even if the left arm was inconvenient to move, it would not be a big problem for the habitual right arm to be used. He always has a straight face when he talks to me, but it's that face that makes my heart move. Ha, the age difference is a bit bigger, not to mention that I already have a sweetheart.
"Not long after we met, a horde of zombies attacked us. To tell you the truth, if it weren't for Xie Changge's help, I'm afraid I would be a walking dead now. When I was about to be bitten by a zombie, Xie Changge actually lifted the chair in the nurse's station with one hand and smashed it at the zombie, so I escaped death. My father and mother have taught me since I was a child, and the grace of saving my life should be reciprocated. Unexpectedly, Xie Changge said to me like this: 'You are a nurse, you have saved lives and helped so many people, I pulled out a knife to help, but what you did was just a drop in the bucket'. Tut-tut, what a nice good man. If I were a teenager younger, I would definitely not marry him. Ha, if this matter is known to my sweetheart, he will definitely be jealous. β
"Sister Chen, who is the sweetheart you have been talking about?" asked Chen Yaofei.
Chen Peihua smiled shyly and said to us like a girl who had never been involved in love: "His name is Ge Yingming, and he is a super handsome doctor in the Department of Neurology of our Yixiang People's Hospital, and has won many medical awards in the province. He is the second best doctor in neurology after Dr. Du Ming, but he is the most talented doctor in my heart that no one can match. β
The doctor surnamed Du, have I heard of it somewhere?
"Ah Hua, is the doctor surnamed Du famous?"
Chen Peihua opened her mouth wide and turned to me in surprise and asked, "Haven't you heard of Dr. Du Ming from Yixiang People's Hospital?"
"Yes, Du Ming is a very famous neurologist. "Heh, Chen Yaofei, you kid know again.
"Yaofei, then tell me who he is. β
Chen Yaofei replied to me: "Du Ming, a specialist doctor in neurology at Yixiang People's Hospital, is a young doctor who has won many medical papers and medical practice awards. Although he is a doctor affiliated with the Department of Neurology, he is also a fish in water in the field of neurosurgery, and he is a doctor who specializes in both neurology and neurosurgery. He has excellent surgical skills, and has presided over many surgeries that even the city hospital cannot handle, and is a well-known genius doctor in the entire city of Anzhou. β
"Genius is not really good," said Chen Peihua, "Dr. Du said that he is not as good as my sweetheart Dr. Ge Yingming in terms of genius, but he is more diligent than ordinary people, and always insists on a sincere heart to save lives and help the wounded." Dr. Du said that the surgical agreement is just a piece of paper with a responsibility to confirm the validity of the responsibility, and the real responsibility lies on the shoulders of the surgeon, and this responsibility is the weight of life that the surgeon must bear himself. As far as I know, Dr. Du has not had any failed surgeries during his tenure at Yixiang People's Hospital. But ......"
"But what?" I asked.
"It's nothing. "Chen Peihua deliberately concealed something.
The other party conceals it, and it will seem eventful for me to ask further. What's more, I now have a question that I am eager to know: "Ah Hua, in the ward on the sixth floor before, you asked us to leave, saying that the most terrifying monster would appear." What kind of monster is that?"
Chen Peihua's face was gloomy, and she lowered her head and whispered, "I don't even know whether I should tell you about this, because it's too terrifying." Every time I think about it, I feel a chill down my spine. After speaking, Chen Peihua shuddered.
"Tell us," I said, "the three of us are in the same boat now, and if we run into that monster and know about it in advance, we can be prepared." β
Chen Peihua nodded and said, "I saw that monster a week ago. After so many days, I still remember it vividly. At that time, I found my fellow villagers and three young doctors who were supposed to be affiliated with the Department of Orthopedics. Since the exit to our hospital was blocked, we tried to climb out of the window. Although it was dark outside, we thought that this was just a trick, so we took action together. The windows on the first and second floors were as bulletproof as bulletproof glass, so we started from the third floor and smashed the glass at the front desk. Unbeknownst to us, the noise we made made by the monsters and attracted them. The three doctors stepped forward to buy time for me and my fellow villagers. Monsters, oh, the zombies you are talking aboutβthose are slow-moving zombiesβI know they're poisonous, tell the doctors in advance, and the doctors will stop them from a distance.
"Because my body is big and not as thin as my fellow villagers, I asked my fellow villagers to go first. She easily slipped through the hole we had smashed through and into the darkness outside. Escape is a race against the clock, and I must not be able to pass it like this. So, I'm going to let the young doctors go first. The youngest of the three young doctors, who seemed to be the smallest, climbed out with my fellow countryman. At the same time, the zombies surrounded us, and there was no way back for us but to crawl out. β
Chen Peihua cried and said, "What do I think, that was the last time I and my fellow villagers met." As soon as the young doctor climbed up to the window frame, the screams of my fellow villagers were heard outside. This scream scared the young doctor to the ground, and almost scared our souls out. We don't know what's going on outside, but my instincts tell me that something has happened to my fellow villagers. β
Chen Peihua burst into tears and continued: "There are zombies in front, and the situation in the back is unknown. At this moment, the zombies stopped and did not leave. We were surprised, but this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The young doctors picked up their brooms and hit the zombies, but they didn't fight back at all, they didn't do anything. I wanted to see what was going on with my fellow villagers outside, but the doctors told me that if we didn't break through now, we would definitely become a meal for the zombies when they got into action. I was scared and ran out with the doctor.
"Along the way, we saw a lot of zombies, but they were the same as the zombies at the front desk, motionless. We kept running for our lives, running from the third floor to the fourth floor, and from the fourth floor to the fifth floor. The doctors said it would be dangerous to take the elevator, so I followed them up the stairs out of breath to the urology ward on the 11th floor. Then, just around the corner from the Eastside walkway, it appeared.
"I don't even know what it is. It was naked, and its lower body was surrounded by a piece of cloth. It has no eyes, no ears, no nose, and no mouth. At first I thought it had something on its head, but then I realized that it really had no face. It was stitched all over its body. When it noticed that we were coming towards us, I saw something strange about its body, which made me think that its body was pieced together and then stitched together with a large wire, which was really terrifying.
"When we saw this, we immediately planned to flee from this level, but zombies surrounded us below. They seem to be premeditated, first to stand still to give us hope of escape, and then let us meet the most terrible monsters and throw us into despair. We didn't want to have anything to do with that monster at all, so we avoided the zombies below and avoided it and found a ward to hide in this floor. The youngest orthopedic surgeon was the last to enter the room, probably because he forgot to lock it out of panic. We watched in horror as the door to the ward opened, and the monster walked in like a living person holding the doorknob. β
Chen Peihua didn't speak, tilted her head and wiped her tears.
"What happened later?" Chen Yaofei, who was supposed to comfort Chen Peihua, said bluntly.
"Dead, everybody is dead except me. The monster walked into the ward motionless. I was so scared that I wanted to run away, to escape around the monsters. As I passed by it, it reached out and grabbed the corner of my coat. I thought that my life would be gone. At the same moment, two orthopedic surgeons picked up the chairs in the ward and smashed them at the monster. It seems that because of their attack, the monster let me go. I fell to the ground and watched the monster walk towards the doctor. The monster grabbed a doctor by the neck with one hand, breaking their necks. The youngest orthopedic surgeon was left in the corner, not daring to move. I'm right behind the monster and tell the lad to come over quickly. I thought that monster must be able to understand what the living are saying. It turned and walked towards me. I had no choice but to retreat outside the ward and hurriedly close the door. Closing the door of the ward, the monster did not open the door and left the door. It wasn't long before I heard the young doctor's wail, and I really didn't know what had happened to him to the monster. β
Chen Peihua grabbed the sheet and snorted, turned to me pitifully and said, "I can't help it." Of course I wanted to save the young man, but I couldn't save him. After coming out, I was hiding from the zombies while finding a safe place to stay, and I had to be always vigilant for the appearance of that terrifying monster. You say, how hard it is for me to survive. β
"Ah Hua, so you met that monster a week ago, have you ever met it since?"
"I've seen it once, and I've seen it in the ward. I saw it standing motionless in the ward, so I avoided it. β
Listening to Chen Peihua say this, in addition to the monsters and zombies pretending to be Xie Changge in this hospital, there is another monster that is very threatening. Hey, how can you forget the most important thing: "Ah Hua, can you tell me something about Xie Changge?"
"I told you I don't know. I was hiding from the zombies, and he suddenly disappeared. I don't know where he went. β
"When did he disappear without a trace, and where did he disappear?"
"Let me think about it...... It should be in the orthopedic ward on the fifteenth floor, and I was separated from him. It's probably not around noon. I've seen an electronic clock that isn't broken before, so I can't be wrong. β
At noon, Xie Changge hadn't broken into this strange place yet. I have the impression that Xie Changge's parents said that Xie Changge was still there when they had lunch. Wait a minute, won't Xie Changge have already been dropped at that time? The orthopedic ward on the fifteenth floor? Xie Changge, this little red guy, why does he like the number fifteen so much?
"Yi Jiahe, Xie Changge is a very important person to you, right?" Chen Peihua asked me abruptly.
"Why, he's a little red guy, and I'm just classmates. And he me off all day, and I wish he was far away from me. β
"Oh......"
"What are you doing, what are you doing? Chen Yaofei, why did you bastard follow Sister Chen to look at me with a suspicious expression. What I'm saying is true, truer than the truth. β
"Forget it, don't talk about it. Let's change places. Chen Peihua stood up.
"Sister Chen," I reluctantly got up and asked Chen Peihua, "Let's exchange it like this, can we really be safe?"
"Of course. It's over if you stay here. Once that monster strikes, it will kill us like a turtle in an urn. Walk fast, walk fast. Chen Peihua casually took the glass bottle on the bedtable and nervously went to the door of the ward to investigate. "Alright, no zombies found, let's get out of here. β
We were walking towards the top of the stairs, but there were two zombies with badly ulcerated skin. To avoid touching them, we reversed direction and went up the stairs next to the elevator. When we climbed to the 10th floor, the stairs between the 10th and 11th floors were blocked by a large number of wheelchairs, so we chose to find a hiding place on the 10th floor instead of spending time clearing the wheelchairs.
The 10th floor of Inpatient Building 3 is the kidney ward. When I saw the word "kidney", I felt faintly weak somewhere in my body. After being urged by Chen Yaofei, I realized that I was worrying about nothing.
Moving to a safe hospital room, my drowsiness set in. I took out my phone in my pocket, and it was past ten o'clock in the evening.
"My phone has long been forgotten in the nurse's station. It's useless to have a mobile phone here. I heard from a doctor that there was no cell phone signal in the hospital. Chen Peihua put down the glass bottle and sat on the hospital bed and said.
Ten minutes later, I couldn't resist the onslaught of sleepiness. Normally, at this time, I would have fallen asleep in my bed. Thinking of this, I looked at Chen Yaofei, he didn't seem sleepy at all, and he was still sitting on the hospital bed and swinging his feet. I remember that I didn't get a good night's sleep after Chen Yaofei woke up - I remember that not long after the first zombie we met here came to attack us - if I had slept at that time and Chen Yaofei had escaped without permission, I might have become a zombie and wandered around the hospital now.
Twenty minutes passed. I've fallen on Chen Yaofei's shoulder twice. Although Chen Yaofei said that it was fine, I was very concerned about sleeping on the shoulders of a big man.
"Ah Hua, you said you survived here for two weeks, so how did you sleep at night?" I asked Chen Peihua.
"I don't sleep until midnight. After midnight, I went to the lockable bathroom and turned off the lights to rest. β
"Aren't you afraid, the monster you said will find you?"
"Why aren't you afraid? I'm scared to death. I didn't sleep at all on the first day. Then I met that monster, and I didn't sleep for two whole days. On the third day, I went out, found a ward, closed the bathroom, locked the door, turned off the lights, prepared the toilet plug, and fell asleep unconsciously. The next day, I woke up safe and sound. For the next few days, I used this method to avoid the monster. β
"Then," my eyelids protested, "let's rest together in the bathroom of this ward." β
"No, as soon as I came in, I went to the bathroom to check, and the bathroom door lock in this ward is broken, it can't be locked, it's not safe. β
Eldest sister, since the bathroom door lock is broken, why did you bring us here?
"It's almost time, let's go. β
"No, I'm really sleepy. If this continues, I'm afraid I'll drop the chain at a critical time due to fatigue. I waved my hand and fell on Chen Yaofei's shoulder, not wanting to leave.
"Well, as long as we find a safe ward with a bathroom door lock that is not broken, we will rest for the night in my own way. β
When Chen Yaofei heard this, he said, "The three of us are crowded together, is the bathroom space big enough?"
"Leave this trivial matter alone, let's go. Standing up, I followed the cautious Chen Peihua out of the ward.
Because there is an obstacle on the stairs next to the elevator, we plan to take the stairs in the East End to the eleventh floor.
The eleventh floor of Building III is the Urology Ward. When we reached the eleventh floor, we saw three zombies hanging out at the end of the passage.
"I'm sleepy, let's find a working room to sleep in this row of wards. "Uncomfortable, I took the lead in finding an unlocked ward.
"Yi Jiahe, wait......" Chen Peihua stopped me.
"What's wrong?" I'm so sleepy.
"Something is wrong. β
I followed Chen Peihua's line of sight and looked at the three zombies. They turned their heads at us, probably seeing us and trying to attack us. I don't know if my eyes are a little blurry, but I found that the eyes of these three zombies are white. White-eyed zombies, the zombie settings in zombie movies are almost all like this.
"It's okay. If anything, we'll get around them. "I continued to try to open the door.
After about two seconds, Chen Peihua called me softly: "Yi Jia and ......" I turned my head to look at Chen Peihua, only to see her raise her index finger and put it in front of her mouth, meaning that I should not speak.
If you don't speak, you won't speak. You don't need to talk to do things.
"Yi Jia and ......" this time Chen Peihua called me in a softer voice. When I turned to look at her, she waved her hand and spoke silently to me. I wasn't far away from her, so I could roughly discern what she was saying.
"Hmm...... No, you have to ......" I watched Chen Peihua's lips move bigger and bigger, "hair...... "Don't happen?What the hell?"Happen" can "don't"?
Seeing that I looked confused, Chen Peihua lipsed more anxiously, and I finally read out what she meant: "Don't make a sound." β
After understanding the meaning, I reflexively looked at the three zombies. They still stuck in place and shook their heads, looking silly.
Chen Peihua's demeanor made me feel inexplicable. Thinking that she was worried that the zombies that heard the sound would come and attack us, I turned around and prepared to go over and say to her, "These zombies are slow, we don't have to worry". I saw Chen Peihua shaking her hand again and again to signal me to hurry up, while Yi Jiahe stood next to Chen Peihua and watched me, or the three zombies behind me.
"It's a coward. I thought to myself, and I walked over to the two of them.
"Click", I stepped on a pen. Unlucky, who is so immoral to put the pen here? Because I was already in a bad mood because I was tired, I stepped on this pen, and my mood was even worse. I kicked the pen so hard that I accidentally kicked it onto a can that had been dumped in a trash can by the wall.
"Boom", a loud metal crashing sound. I leaned over to take a closer look at the trash can and thought to myself that I was pretty good at kicking.
I was just about to walk towards Chen Yaofei and Chen Peihua when I saw Chen Yaofei waving his long baton at me, and my brain fell into a momentary stuck.
"Uhh
Chen Yaofei's stick did not hit me, but on the head of the zombie behind me. This zombie was one of the three zombies I saw at the end of the passageway.
The brain works, but I'm still in a state of confusion about the current situation. What I did know was that a zombie was running towards me. At the same time, the third of the three zombies followed the second zombie and ran towards us with its mouth wide open. Like a nerve reflex, my brain asks me to turn around and pick up the trash can. I lifted the trash can and turned around, and a second zombie pounced on me and threw me to the ground. It let out a beastly roar with its disgusting mouth open, and then it couldn't stop biting its mouth and showing that it wanted to eat me. Luckily, the trash can was a barrier between my face and its mouth, so it didn't bite me. Struggling to push the trash can, I kicked the zombie in the body. The zombie fell to the ground due to the impact. I immediately looked at Chen Yaofei, who had already knocked down the third zombie that had followed.
"It's amazing......"
"There's no time to sigh, let's run!" Chen Yaofei grabbed my hand and ran towards the staircase.
Immediately behind Chen Peihua, we ran with all our strength to reach the ward on the eighth floor of Building 3 where we had rested. Strangely, the door of this ward was locked and could not be opened.
"How could it not be opened?" Chen Peihua shook the doorknob violently;
Behind him, three zombies appeared in our field of vision. Seeing them coming, Chen Peihua stopped shaking her head on the doorknob and motioned for us not to make a noise as before. Strange to say, the three zombies shook in place for a moment, and then left with the zombies who were heading towards the staircase with a cry of "uh-ah".
"What the hell is that?" I asked Chen Peihua.
"Zombies. Chen Peihua gave up this ward, looked around cautiously and said to me, "I was really sorry just now." I was so scared that I forgot to bring the glass bottle out, so I ran away in a hurry. β
"It's okay, Sister Chen. Chen Yaofei, who was as brave as a tiger general, was now smiling stupidly.
Recalling Chen Yaofei's fearless combat posture when the zombies attacked me, I naturally admired this bastard boy. It's strange, I'm an adult, he's just a little kid, why should I admire him?
"A zombie with such a fast speed is obviously different from a stupid zombie with slow movements. I complained.
Chen Peihua moved to try to open the door of the other ward, and said, "I don't know." There was a doctor who once acted with me, but he underestimated the white-eyed zombie and was chased and bitten to death. Since then, in addition to watching out for faceless monsters, I've also had to watch out for white-eyed zombies. They only seem to respond to sound, though. As long as you don't make a sound, they won't chase you a few meters away from them. This is the experience I learned from nine deaths and deaths. After trying to open the fifth ward and succeeding, Chen Peihua waved for us to enter.
It was a horrible ward, and the interior was miserable. The dim light flickered, and the white sheets of the hospital bed were stained with a large patch of red liquid. There was still a red liquid flowing out of the closet, and although it was almost dry, we were still shocked when we saw this sad picture. There was a strong smell of liquid in the ward, which made people nauseous.
"We, do we really want to rest overnight in a ward like this?" I asked Chen Peihua.
Chen Peihua went to the bathroom to check the door lock. As if to make sure that the door lock was not broken, she turned to us and said, "It is a great blessing to be able to find a safe ward without zombies, and the bathroom door lock is not broken, so you should be content, young man." β
I was reluctant, but under the attack of the white-eyed zombies, my brain was once awake but I fell into an extremely stuck state, and I was so tired that I wanted to fall to the ground and die, so I responded to Chen Peihua's words and went to sleep in the bathroom. Chen Peihua said that she was big enough to block the door, and even if the zombie broke through the door of the ward, it might not be able to break through the door of the bathroom. Thinking that if the zombie really broke through the door of the ward, the three of us would definitely die, what difference did it make if the bathroom door was blocked or not, so I closed the toilet lid and sat in the corner. The great luck in the real misfortune is the miserable scene in the hospital room, but at least the bathroom can give people a rest.
"What the hell, go over there. I said to Chen Yaofei.
Chen Yaofei didn't listen to me, squeezed next to me and said, "It's wet over there." β
"At this time, it doesn't matter if it's wet or not, just sit on it. "Sleepy, I leaned against the wall and closed my eyes.
In the end, Chen Yaofei did not change positions and leaned on me to sleep. He and I sat on the floor and fell asleep, while Chen Peihua stretched out her thick legs and leaned against the bathroom door to sleep.
I had a dream, not a terrible dream like in a time loop, but a pretty beautiful dream. Sadly, when I woke up and saw Chen Yaofei sleeping on my shoulder, all the grinding memories of being in the walking corpse ward poured out. However, it may be because Chen Yaofei leaned on me, although I woke up a little cold, it was not as cold as I had in my impression when I got up early in the morning. Chen Yaofei is really cute when he sleeps. He is not outstanding, not as good as Xie Changge's looks, and certainly not as handsome as me. However, there is a peculiar charm to his face - seeing Chen Yaofei's smile, my inner anxiety will be reduced a little, and seeing Chen Yaofei's crying appearance will increase my inner sorrow a little.
"I hope you can always be happy. I gently stroked Chen Yaofei's hair with my hand and couldn't help but kiss him on the forehead.
Then, I noticed Chen Peihua's strange gaze. She woke up at some point, leaning against the door and staring straight at me. In order not to wake up Chen Yaofei, I suppressed my panic and communicated with Chen Peihua silently.
"What are you doing?" Chen Peihua seemed to say.
"I ......" failed to find a suitable reason, and I had nothing to say.
"Huh?" Chen Yaofei woke up, and I immediately retracted my hand and pretended that nothing had happened.
"Now that everyone is awake, let's change places. Chen Peihua didn't say what she had just witnessed.
"Okay, let's go. "If she doesn't say it, why should I confess.
After listening to the movement outside the bathroom, Chen Peihua unlocked the door and carefully opened the door of the bathroom and walked out of the bathroom. Chen Yaofei and I stayed for a while, and after Chen Peihua said "come out", we walked out. Coming to the door of this ward, Chen Peihua poked left and right through the glass window, and then pressed against the door to listen to the movement outside the ward.
"There are no zombies. Grab your self-defense gear, let's get out. Chen Peihua opened the door of the ward and looked to the left, then to the right. When she turned to the right, she was clubbing like a wooden man.
"Ah Hua, what's wrong?" I asked.
Chen Peihua looked to the right, and I could feel the joy slowly spreading on her face.
"Wise, I miss you so much...... "Don't forget the latest chapter of the Fortune and Claw Book House of the Past to read for free for the first time.
