"This is Dongting Lake!"

After being drowsy in the cramped car for nearly three hours, when Ji Xiaoran was woken up, the vast water surface suddenly crashed into Ji Xiaoran's field of vision.

"It's coming soon." The woman driving turned her head sideways and glanced at Ji Xiaoran, "After we arrive, let's go to the county hospital to see my husband first, and then go to lunch." ”

Ji Xiaoran nodded: Leave at ten o'clock in the morning, it's time for lunch.

The woman's husband is a fisherman who fishes on Dongting Lake. A family of four basically lives on the fisherman's net. Lately, however, the fisherman has been in a trance. The man was admitted to the hospital, but nothing was detected.

But the unconscious fisherman, with his neat head, his hair grew at an abnormal rate.

The woman, who was afraid of scaring the children and the doctors, hurriedly rested the fisherman's hair with scissors every morning before the nurse came to hang up the drip.

I don't know where the woman learned about Shanhai Pavilion, so Ji Cheng was awakened by a quick knock on the door early in the morning.

The car quickly stopped in front of the county hospital, and Ji Xiaoran, who got out of the car, hugged his schoolbag and yawned big.

Ji Cheng said that it was inconvenient for him to go out, so he asked Xiao Ran to come instead of him, saying that he had handed over the preparation method and materials to her anyway, so he just took this opportunity to practice.

He was the only one in the fisherman's ward, and he was asleep after a drip. Although it was almost summer, the fisherman still wore a hat on his head.

"I wore it for him, for fear that someone else would be under it while I wasn't there." The woman walked to the hospital bed and removed the hat from her husband's head.

Unrestrained black hair scattered on the pillow, and it looked shoulder-length.

"It's only been less than half a day." The woman was a little helpless, but her trembling voice was full of fear, "I specially cut his hair before I went to you." ”

According to Ji Yin's speculation, it should be parasitized by the resentful spirits in the water.

The rivers and lakes are vast, but they are only gentle to the water tribe. Therefore, when a person or a beast on land accidentally dies in the water, there is a high probability that its soul will be trapped underwater. The souls trapped in the water are still unconscious at first, and they will approach the living beings, and escape from the water when the living creatures leave the water, so as to enter the heavens and the earth. But not all souls can seize the opportunity at any time, and as they stay longer and longer, the resentment that they will not be able to release after death will gradually turn them into resentful spirits.

The resentful spirits in the water, they don't want to leave, they just want more souls to be able to stay underwater with them.

Therefore, some people say that when swimming in rivers and lakes, they will feel that their feet are entangled in aquatic plants.

So where are the aquatic weeds? It's just a ploy of the spirits.

The most common is hair.

The fisherman's wife took advantage of this moment and took out the scissors and cut the long hair in half again, and the hair that had been lost fell to the ground for a moment, and then turned into wisps of green smoke and dissipated.

"Don't cut it." Ji Xiaoran looked at this scene and panicked cautiously, and by the way, she also greeted her father seven or eight times: she is a person who has not even dared to watch ghost movies or even thrillers since she was a child, how could Ji Cheng arrange for her to deal with such a thing? !

At this time, even if Ji Xiaoran was hungry and hungry, he was in no mood to eat.

"Let's go and see if you can buy boiled eggs in the hospital cafeteria." Ji Xiaoran walked to the other hospital bed as she spoke, opened the schoolbag, and began to look outside the bottles and cans in the schoolbag, "Let's find a larger container for water, a water tank or something, as long as it can be moved into the hospital, the bigger the better." ”

"Our fish shop is near here, and there is no fish to sell these days, so there are a few empty glass tanks. I'm going to ask the doctor if I can move one in. As soon as the woman put the scissors on the table, she walked out with her phone.

Ji Xiaoran glanced at the sleeping fisherman, gritted his teeth, and stood as far away from the hospital bed as he could reach the scissors: Take away such a dangerous thing quickly, who knows if the hair will be used to fight back with a murder weapon like a tentacle.

Because of her concern for her man, the fisherman's wife moved very quickly, and in less than ten minutes, she returned, carrying a bag containing four or five eggs, and two young men behind her carried a glass jar that was one meter long, half a meter wide and half a meter high.

Ji Xiaoran looked at the water tank in shock: she didn't expect it to be so big......

"You can fill it with water, I guess it will be more than seven points." Ji Xiaoran grabbed his head and looked at the three of them, "I'll start dispensing medicine now, and we'll do it when the water is filled." ”

The whole set of chemical experiment equipment that Ji Xiaoran put out is full of chemical experiment equipment, from flasks to condenser tubes. It was also unsafe to carry an alcohol lamp, so Ji Xiaoran took out a few short candles and lit the fire under the flat-bottomed flask.

The transparent liquid is heated and turned into steam and rises upward, passing through layers of brown and black powder, and then turns left into the condenser tube, and the condensed liquid drops into the test tube and turns into a pink potion.

While staring at Ji Xiaoran, who was staring at the reaction reagent, he peeled a boiled egg. These parasitic "hairs" can be drawn from the human body using hard-boiled eggs. When the hard-boiled eggs are peeled and placed next to the host, the "hair" will be attracted to the smell and nutrients of the eggs.

Why this is happening, Ji Xiaoran doesn't know.

After the water in the tank was loaded, Ji Xiaoran let them leave the ward and locked the door.

Ji Xiaoran, who was a little panicked in his heart, put on rubber gloves before holding the peeled eggs and cowardly approached the sleeping fisherman. Sure enough, as soon as the egg approached, I saw the "hairs" squirming one by one, and at first approached the egg like a temptation, and then pierced the egg whites and drilled into it.

Through the gloves, Ji Xiaoran could feel the movement of the silk threads wriggling in the eggs. It wasn't until the egg in his hand changed from white to a light black stripe like a small hairball that Ji Xiaoran tentatively leaned over the other egg, and when the black silk behind gave up the original egg, he quickly threw the hairy egg that began to have black silk rushing out into the water tank.

The black filaments in the egg break through the water the moment it touches the water, and it floats away in the water.

Ji Xiaoran just glanced at it with his peripheral vision, then turned his head, and just gritted his teeth to attract the parasitic ones on the fisherman's body first.

About the fourth egg, no more black threads came out of the fisherman's head. Seeing that the fisherman's hair had changed into the style that the woman originally said about the inch head, Ji Xiaoran estimated that it should be almost over.

The remaining fifth egg, Ji Xiaoran also felt disgusted when he looked at it, so he threw it into the water tank together.

The moment the egg enters the water, it is entangled in black silk and then disappears cleanly.

The entire tank is now all black.
