Chapter 31: Wiping the tears from her eyes
She quickly knocked on the door of her head, settled down, and said to Lao Zhang: "You explore slowly in it first, and remember to tell me in time if you make any new discoveries." ”
After speaking, Xia Chongming twisted his body, barely crossed his legs, and began to try to meditate. She adjusted her breath and breathed in, turning the aura in the air into her own use. The hospital was very quiet after dark, except for Xia Chongming's low breathing, which was the sound of the clock on the wall.
In this environment, her cultivation was really smooth, and after a while, she felt full of strength, and the internal injuries suffered by her internal organs gradually improved. Xia Chongming could even feel a magical power swirling above her head, helping her filter the aura in the air and disperse it throughout her body, making her cultivation twice as effective with half the effort.
From the conversation with Dai Chuchen during the day, I learned that this hospital is a private hospital and is far away from the city. At that time, Dai Chuchen was in a hurry, so he sent her to the nearest hospital. But now that I think about it, there is no shortage of good places to recuperate.
But it didn't take long for Xia Chongming to start feeling that something was wrong. Although it is far away from the city and there is less noise, there is no movement of insects and birds outside the window, and even inside the hospital, the sound of medical staff inspecting the ward can not be heard at all.
It's so quiet, it's a little scary. Xia Chongming smelled the smell of disinfectant water in the house, and his heart that had just relaxed suddenly became nervous again. She admits that she is too sensitive, but after all, she has just picked up a life from the door of life and death, and this situation has to make her nervous.
Suddenly, there was a sound of "knock knock" downstairs, it seemed that something was beating, the sound was very strange, it seemed to hit the ground for a while, and it seemed to hit the wall again, like a person running desperately, and it didn't look like a normal way of running.
The voice rang downstairs for a long time, followed by "Ah! The whole hospital was in a riot in an instant, and the shouts of doctors and nurses came from the corridor, and they ran. But it didn't take long for another terrible cry to come from somewhere, Xia Chongming stared, looked at the door, and her intuition told her that something must have happened.
She turned slowly, ready to get out of bed and go to the door to see what was going on. At this moment, the doorknob of her room seemed to be turned by someone, and a figure hurriedly rushed in, and after the person came in, he immediately locked the door, turned around, took off the mask on his face and looked at Xia Chongming.
Xia Chongming's heart was already crumbling at this moment, and she was startled by this person, she just raised her hand and made a defensive move, and looked at it when she saw that it was Li Xuehuang in a white coat.
At this moment, Emperor Li's white coat was stained with blood, and his pale face had a solemn expression. After locking the door, he seemed to have some scruples, and did not walk towards Xia Chongming, but blocked the door with his body. Seeing Xia Chongming's panicked appearance, Li Xuehuang smiled softly and said, "Don't be afraid, it's me." “
Xia Chongming saw that the person who came in was Emperor Li Xuehuang, and he instantly felt a lot more relieved. She slowly lowered her hands and asked, "What's wrong?" What's going on out there? “
"The corpses in the morgue have changed." Emperor Li Xuehuang turned his head and looked out along the crack in the door with a furrowed brow. His eyes were bloodshot, the undersides of his eyes were red, and even his forehead was bruised.
Through that tiny crack in the door, although he couldn't see the whole picture outside, he could still let Li Xuehuang have a rough look. The originally clean corridor is now covered with blood, which can be described as extremely bloody. The whole corridor is cloudy and windy, and no one is miserable.
There was an occasional "thump" in the next room, followed by a scream. Xia Chongming's heart was pounding when she heard this voice, she held the quilt tightly in the palm of her hand, and looked at Li Xuehuang at the door.
The sound of running, the sound of running for life, and the screams only lasted for half an hour, and then they could no longer be heard, only the sound of slow footsteps coming from outside the door, stepping on the ground heavily, making a "dong dong" sound.
The quilt on his hand was wet with sweat from Xia Chongming's palms, and Li Xuehuang at the door kept blocking the door with all his might, without the slightest slack.
The silence after the riot did not give the two a sense of security, but rather made them feel more terrifying. Because at this moment, the voice of a human can no longer be heard, and in those subtle footsteps, there is a strange tearing sound, as if a wild beast is eating.
Xia Chongming took a deep breath, lowered his voice and asked Li Xuehuang, "How is it now?" What's going on out there? “
Li Xuehuang raised his index finger and whispered, "Shh...... The walking corpse outside the door hasn't gone yet. ”
When he came in just now and said that the morgue was a corpse, Xia Chongming felt that something was wrong, and now Li Xuehuang said the word "walking corpse" again. Several images emerged in Xia Chongming's mind, including a blue-faced zombie wearing an ancient official uniform with a yellow charm on his forehead; There are also white-haired, fast-moving droughts; There are also zombies with tattered clothes and slow movements and limping......
These are the things that Xia Chongming has seen most often in TV dramas in the past, but they seem to be somewhat different from the creatures outside this door. Although she didn't know exactly what was going on in the morgue and what the corpse would become, one thing was certain: it was very dangerous outside the door!
"The Walking Dead?" Although she had roughly guessed what kind of thing it was, she couldn't help but ask Emperor Li Xue.
"That thing doesn't belong to living things. Don't look at their slow movement now, once they smell the smell of blood, they will attack quickly, and they can't even see half a shadow. Walking corpses do not form naturally, unless they are caused by coincidence, or by man-made. Damn, who sent the body in question to the morgue ......"
Li Xuehuang muttered in a low voice, staring at the door. When Xia Chongming heard his answer, he only felt a chill all over his body. What does it mean to move slowly in normal times and act quickly when you see people? Wouldn't it be their death to go out now? This kind of thing, how can they escape?
After a while, the strange sounds outside the door seemed to be much quieter. The whole hospital became silent again. There were one or two night owl cries outside the window, and Xia Chongming's back was numb when he listened.
What no one expected was that at this time, Emperor Li Xuehuang opened the locked door little by little, and quietly said to Xia Chongming: "I'll go out to explore the way, you wait for me here." Then he opened the door and walked out softly.
Xia Chongming was shocked, her eyes widened, her thin eyebrows were frowned, and she said that Li Xuehuang hadn't gone out yet, and quickly said, "Don't, don't go!" We can't escape such a thing! “
A warm tear ran down her cheek, and her voice was not loud, but it was hysterical. She was very afraid that Li Xuehuang would never return and become a delicious meal for the walking corpse, and she didn't want Li Xuehuang to die in order to save her.
"Don't worry, they can't beat me. Don't cry, I'm ......"
He looked at Xia Chongming's teary eyes, the action of opening the door paused for a second, the beautiful Adam's apple moved slightly, and he stretched out his hand as if he wanted to help her wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes. But the outstretched hand stopped in mid-air, and before he could finish his words, he turned around, walked out of the room, and slammed the door shut.
Xia Chongming looked at his departing figure, and there was an inexplicable cramp in her heart, she quickly sat up from the bed, wanting to chase after her, but fell to the ground with an "oops". There was the sound of keys rattling outside the door, and it was clear that Emperor Li had locked her here.
She sat on the ground, tears falling from the corners of her eyes. The scene just now always made her feel so familiar, as if there was such a similar memory in the depths of her soul. Crying and crying, she actually fell asleep on the floor like this.
After the night, the warm sun shone on Xia Chongming's face, and she slowly opened her eyes and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her hands.
Looking at this empty ward, you will remember the scene last night, the first thing Xia Chongming did when he woke up was to take out his mobile phone and call for help!
