Chapter 178: Severed Finger [Asking for a Monthly Pass, Asking for a Subscription]
In the gloomy attic, flickering lights illuminated the floor-to-ceiling mirror in front of it, revealing a bereaked face of astonishment.
"What are you kidding...... Gu Jun walked over with a slight stagger, his heart was clenching, and the strange man in the mirror was getting closer and closer, the person was wearing a set of linen clothes, and the contours of the distorted face of the alien literati vaguely seemed to have a little bit of his shadow.
How can a person see his or her own face?
If there is no mirror, no water shadow, won't he be able to see his face for the rest of his life?
But the self in the mirror must be real?
Gu Jun reached out and touched his face, and the weirdo in the mirror was the same, the touch on his hand seemed to be touching the protrusion of the mandible, the contour was changing, and the touch of the skin was also different, like it was becoming a kind of plaque produced in a dark and damp place.
It was like he heard a whisper in his heart, "Gald is you, and everything else is just your delirium......
From beginning to end, it's just a story you weave for yourself in this shabby house.
"It's not!" Gu Jun slashed out with a knife and slashed into the mirror, and with a crisp bang, the mirror shattered into pieces.
He looked down, but saw that every fragment was still reflected in the same ugly face.
"No, no......" Gu Jun shook his head, "This room is affecting my spirit, is this a nightmare that invades my mind?" Drawing dreams, is this drawing dreams...... Could this house be the cause of nightmares...... Draw sweet dreams and replace ...... with nightmares"
He looked around, and the strange pictures on the walls still surrounded him, not credible, none of them credible.
He went to get the Carlopp scalpel back on the table, this thing can't be fake, right? But...... This is not something that ordinary people of the literati cannot buy.
"No, it's not." Gu Jun tried his best to condense his spirit, but the feeling of the world spinning was still getting stronger and stronger, and the air seemed to be restraining him.
The mental state is not only about the will, but also about the physiology, and there are too many factors that he does not know in the dream world...... He could only be sure that he was being eroded, his spirit was going into derangement, and if he continued like this, he could not guarantee that he would not fall into this whirlpool and continue to sink......
After thinking about it, Gu Jun stumbled back to the second floor, and he didn't see Wu Shiyu's figure, not even a fake one.
If she's going through the same whirlpool...... He was worried about her, because she didn't know as much about these things as he did.
The torrential rain outside was still pouring down, Gu Jun looked out the window, and the young caretaker in the distance was still sticking to his post.
Is the young caretaker also caught up in this whirlpool, drowning in this never-ending nightmare? Forever watched, watched, watched...... Forming part of this house of treachery? But why, that diary can be altered......
Gu Jun's head hurt, some inspiration flashed, and then it turned into a new chaos, delirium, you are delirious.
"No, there must be a way to break this nightmare......"
"I'm Galk? Am I a ghoul? ”
"I can't see my face, but I can see the rest of myself."
"If you want to transform into a ghoul, your body will be different from that of humans."
"I need to wake up from this nightmare......"
Gu Jun narrowed his eyes, looked at his hands, and suddenly had an idea.
I'm a doctor and can dissect myself myself.
In order to split the door more vigorously just now, the team's medical bag was carried by Wu Shiyu, and now it has also disappeared. But he still had a small bag around his waist, and he took out a tourniquet from the bag and tied it tightly to the proximal end of the tail finger of his left hand, blocking the circulation of blood.
He felt that the tail finger was swollen and bulging, and his skin was gradually turning purple and cyanosis, which was fine, but there was no anesthetic.
Boom, there was thunder outside the house, the rain was falling harder, and the sound of the wind howling was like the howling of a hundred ghosts, as if they were shouting something.
Gu Jun sat down on the floor, the kerosene lamp was placed next to him, his left hand stretched out in the light, and his right hand held the Kalop scalpel in a bow gesture.
The leaping flames could not hide the cold light of the blade.
"I'm a ghoul? Then give me some proof. With a sharp look in his eyes, he slashed the distal finger of his left hand with a scalpel, "Ah!! ”
The skin was sliced, and the blade went straight into the medulla, and the blood that had been stagnant there suddenly gushed out. The abundant blood vessels and nerve endings in the intercalary space of the finger cord were cut off and a huge pain surged throughout his body, eating away at his heart, making him unable to cry out in pain!
Ten fingers hurt to the heart, it is precisely because of this medullary gap at the end of the finger that even if it is just accidentally clamped, it can make people break out in a cold sweat.
Gu Jun didn't suppress his physical pain, and his slightly trembling right hand waved the knife again, "Ah......hhhh
He didn't make a flap, he just cut it off roughly. Because if you want to see the finger bones, it is wiser to prepare for the removal of the fingers in the current environment.
If the tail finger is shorter, it will be shorter......
It wasn't that he didn't think about cutting off the end of this finger before dissecting it, but cutting it off left his body and his spirit. It's hard to guarantee that it's not the original. This room can be changed, deceived, and blinded, but as long as his fingers are still attached to him, he can feel it.
"Ahh Gu Jun drew the scalpel again, cutting off this piece of finger belly, the severe pain already made him sweat coldly, "I'm Gu Jun......"
Even with a third-level calm hand, his right hand was trembling.
It was the first time he had held a scalpel or scalpel and trembled like this, but the patient in charge was himself.
"......" he scolded and gasped, and slammed his hand a few times, cutting off the other fibrous septums, dorsum aponeurotica, etc.
A piece of bloody flesh slipped off and fell onto the filthy floor.
At the same time, the caretaker's diary in my mind, the content of the new diary has changed a little:
[Shortly thereafter, I heard Mr. Garder let out a heart-rending wail, as if he were suffering the most inhuman pain. I'd heard how painful the transformation into a ghoul can be, but when I actually listened, I realized how gruesome it was. 】
"Is it......" Gu Jun was covered in sweat as if he had been drenched in a torrential rain, and the tip of his tail finger had already revealed the innermost phalange.
But it was blurred with blood and residual fat, and it was not yet visible......
He first used gauze to wipe the blood from the wound, and then used a scalpel to trim the phalanges.
Every knife was in pain, his heart was twisted in pain, his face must have been distorted, and his screams became more and more frenzied.
The storm outside was even stronger, and the whole house seemed to be shaking, and the faint light of the kerosene lamps was flickering to the point of bursting.
Ghouls have erosion patterns on the bony surfaces of their bones, which are structural changes brought about by transformation.
This is also the difference he can grasp, the sharp needle that punctures this nightmare.
Gu Jun took advantage of the flickering light to bring his trembling left hand to the kerosene lamp, illuminating the end of the empty tail finger and the bones inside.
He opened his eyes wide and saw the bony surface of the bone...... There are no erosion lines, and they are completely normal human phalanges.
"I'm not Gald, I'm not a ghoul!"
Gu Jun muttered, his voice was not loud, but something in his spirit quickly became sober, as if a cloud of darkness had been defeated, and the shadows that had surged to his heart just now dissipated, this was a nightmare.
He somewhat understood that this house locked the souls of many people, including their dreams and nightmares.
And this one is the nightmare of the caretaker, and perhaps the part of Garder.
The Keeper's Diary should be the product of this nightmare, not the one in the essence of the alien world; But it was also present in his consciousness, and he was connected here.
The mysterious power of the system is still a variable, and the fact that the Abyss Mission will give this kind of reward shows that this nightmare of the caretaker is very important.
The foundation of the Lalaye Order and the old dog uncle who created the nightmares in Dongzhou may be this nightmare about the nightmare disease in the alien world.
Since the change in the dream leads to a change in the mind of the caretaker, which in turn leads to a change in the diary.
If you change the diary, will it change the spirit of the caretaker, and thus the dream?
Gu Jun had a calm face, this is a variable, he opened the diary in his mind, condensed his spirit and tried to write behind the new article:
[Just when I thought the night was going to end in this terrible way, Dr. Carlopp arrived!] They got ahead of schedule and hurried to our plague-stricken town. The biggest surprise for the people of our town was a member of the doctor's team.
The legendary Son of Iron is here too! 】
Gu Jun looked at the pages of the diary with a few more lines of words full of joy, and suddenly, the surroundings of the room seemed to shake and change violently.
