Chapter 84: The Truth About Corpse Poison

After thinking about it for a while, Zhou Hao still couldn't help but go out for a walk, now that his legs are healed, he can't stay idle at all when he stays in the house alone, and he has a strong adaptability, unlike Qin Lan said that he has to rest for a day or two, and he has to thank Zhou Ling when he talks about it, when he thinks of that little girl's shy appearance, he can't help but smile on his face.

"Huh?"

As soon as he went out, two heavily armed mercenaries followed behind him, and seeing Zhou Hao turn his head suspiciously, one of them said expressionlessly: "Dean Li has explained that we will protect your safety twenty-four hours a day, and we will not leave an inch." ”

Zhou Hao was not much surprised when he heard his words, even if Li Ze'an and Qin Lan said that the sky was out of the blue, he still didn't worry about letting him move freely, otherwise if he escaped, the old man would have no way to explain to the organization at all.

"When I go out, you will follow, don't you look red?"

Zhou Hao raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Besides, do you dare to smile a little when you come over, and dare others to talk to me when you are fierce and vicious?" ”

But these two people turned a deaf ear, completely ignored him, and looked like they didn't care about Lao Tzu, Zhou Hao exhaled helplessly, and could only treat them as No. 6 gourd babies, and walked forward by himself.

According to Li Ze'an, this hospital adopts a European-style construction style, which should be unique in the entire Shizhou, but Zhou Hao doesn't understand these at all, thinking that at most there are a lot of semicircular structures, window sills, gates or something, but now looking at the past, it is really different from the general hospital, whether it is the details or the whole, but it complements the surrounding quiet environment.

It's strange to walk around and see him, how can anyone go out with two "bodyguards" now?

"Vault, listen to me, vault!"

Zhou Hao watched the two old men play chess with great interest, and they dared to give guidance to others at the half-hung level, and sure enough, the old man was angry at that time, and wiped the chess that was about to lose with his big hand, and scolded him by the throat:

"Whose child doesn't know the rules at all, don't you understand if you don't know how to watch chess, you give me a fuck." Then he said: "This one doesn't count, start again!" ”

"How can there be such a thing as you, every time you are about to lose, you will ruin the chess, if you don't come, you won't come, whoever you love will play..."

The other old man was immediately unhappy, and stood up and was about to leave, but the first old man hurriedly grabbed him, so that he could persuade him to come back.

Zhou Hao couldn't help but laugh, the atmosphere here felt the same as before the apocalypse, I don't know if they were optimistic enough, or if this place was really good enough, he walked towards the back of the hospital, just to visit the "planting base" that Qin Lan said.

Except for the forbidden land, which cannot be waded in, anyone can enter other places, and after going far, after bypassing the two buildings, a place similar to a small courtyard appeared in front of Zhou Hao's eyes.

"There's really a vegetable grow!"

Behind the greenhouse, a few "clucking" chickens were encircled by a wooden fence and a Dutch net, and a young man about his age was standing next to him, holding a small basin of chicken feed, looking at him with a smile.

"You're Zhou Hao, right?"

Zhou Hao nodded, it is estimated that this person was recognized by the two "woods" behind him, seeing that he had no malicious intent, Zhou Hao walked over, looked at the chickens with one male and three females inside, and asked him curiously:

"Where did you get these chickens? Shouldn't they all become "old corpse chickens"? I passed by a large farm before, and all the chickens in it were killed. ”

"Hehe, it's pretty much the same here."

The man explained: "In fact, at the beginning, a large open space behind this was used by a doctor to raise chickens, there were dozens of them, after the disaster, the doctor died, and the chickens were infected one by one, and then we cleaned up the living corpses in the hospital, and then turned around and solved all the chickens that turned into corpses, but I didn't expect that there were so many left in the cracks of the chicken coop, and they were all dying, and only four of the five chickens lived, but there was a rooster, maybe it could continue to breed in the future." ”

"This is really a few "competitive chickens"! ”

Zhou Hao smiled bitterly, and then asked: "You know so much, it should be the doctor here, how can you have the spare time to feed the chickens here?" ”

The man smiled bitterly and said: "You just woke up and don't know, there are basically not many patients left in this hospital, and the corpses don't matter if you are a patient or not, they are all treated equally, most of the patients are relatively weak, as long as there is a living corpse in the ward, the others don't even want to escape, that mercenary also came a few days after the disaster, after all, the corpse venom serum that has been studied here for a long time." ”

"What are you kidding, I've been studying it for a long time, and you're saying that someone started working on the living corpse virus before the disaster?"

Zhou Hao's eyes widened in astonishment, and his mind spun fast for a while, what conspiracy theories, the initiators of the end all appeared in his head, but he didn't expect the man to nod and say very plainly:

"It's true, there were many people studying the living corpse virus long before the disaster, and this hospital is just one of them, the living corpse virus is not transmitted from the water you drink, as you think, but appeared in the air long before the outbreak.

Because it appeared suddenly, and it has no effect on living things, and even after some people extract it from the air, it has the effect of delaying aging in the human body, so after some people have discovered it, it is only in the direction of anti-aging research at the beginning. ”

Zhou Hao couldn't help but speak quickly like a machine gun: "Impossible, if it spreads in the air, then why are there so many survivors who don't have any?" It simply doesn't make sense! ”

"Don't worry, I'm not done yet."

The man couldn't help laughing, and then said: "All countries are basically researching, and some have formed a coalition, after all, delaying aging is a huge temptation for everyone, and then the experiment is on the guinea pigs, and the research institute of Indu is to experiment with the monkeys of the Ganges, and in the end the experiment inevitably went crazy, rushed out and infected many people, I remember that there was news at the time, but the content of the news became that the monkey was infected with rabies." ”

"That's why the Zombie Virus broke out?"

"No, that time was controlled, and after that, the countries have converged a lot, after all, from the news from Indu, the experiment is like a living corpse in the movie after going crazy, so it has been explicitly forbidden to use biology to do this kind of similar experiment, and only a small number of private research institutes still continue to do it, including this hospital."

The man smiled to himself, and looked at Zhou Hao embarrassedly: "What I just said has nothing to do with the outbreak of the virus, it was my whim, in fact, the main reason is that the virus suddenly evolved, and the air was originally full of this ingredient, and after evolution, it directly infected most of the creatures."

The remaining part is not infected, there are already antibodies in the body, and the virus in the air has no effect at all on us survivors, but like the corpse poison infected in the water and direct contact with zombies, it has evolved completely, and as long as it comes into contact with it, it will definitely mutate. ”

"I see."

Zhou Hao suddenly realized, touched his chin, and said puzzledly: "How did the water infect?" Could it be that it is combined with the air, isn't it still a corpse poison in the air that has not evolved completely? ”

"I don't even know if this is a problem, as long as I'm not stupid, I think I can think of it."

The man raised his eyebrows and quipped, Zhou Hao scratched his head and smiled embarrassedly: "It's me who is stupid, my brain is a little stupid, any infected creature can pollute a large area of water if it enters the water." ”

The man threw the last feed in the last basin to the chickens in the circle, stared at him and said with a smile: "Actually, they have already researched the corpse poison serum, and the one used on you is it, but it can only be regarded as a semi-finished product, which can only make the corpse poison in the body of the infected person no longer continue to spread, interrupt the process of corpse transformation, and the side effects are particularly obvious, basically you will die after injection, except that you are an accident." ”

"Alas, the ghost door was closed and walked around, and the most angry thing is that I haven't had the slightest impression."

Zhou Hao smiled helplessly, and said in line with the principle of hugging his thighs to eat: "Brother, you know so much, it won't be a high-level person, you have to take me with you in the future, you have lived here for a long time, and you are indispensable to take care of it." ”

Unexpectedly, the man waved his hand and said: "I'm not a high-level person, but I just stayed for a long time, and these are not secrets after the disaster broke out, and I will know it when I come and go." ”

"That's right, let's be brothers, I felt very close when I saw you just now, and I look like my long-lost brother."

Zhou Hao has no skin and no face, the man couldn't be happy after hearing it, and also quipped: "What is the round head, I still have a flat head, anyway, I've been here for a long time, if you have any questions, you can ask me directly, and I won't charge you more." ”

"There's something I really want to ask you."

Hearing this, Zhou Hao remembered what was going on, and said seriously: "Do you have a person named Su Mingyi here, I heard others say that he happened to travel in Guibei Mountain before the disaster, and I don't know if he escaped here." ”

"Su Mingyi?"

The man thought carefully for a while, shook his head blankly and said: "I haven't heard of this name, there are about two hundred people in the hospital now, I definitely can't remember them all, but I really haven't heard of this person in my impression, you don't have to worry too much, maybe it's outside the hospital, and there are many people living there." ”

"What am I worried about?"

Zhou Hao didn't care, didn't hide it from him and said directly: "I had a lot of conflicts with him before, he almost sent me to prison, I just thought about whether I could find him, settle accounts with him, and feel a lot more comfortable, to be honest, whether I can find it or not is a dispensable thing for me, if I didn't happen to go to Turtle Back Mountain, maybe I would have forgotten about him." ”
