The night breeze was cold, Zhou Haorui walked briskly on the cement road outside the dormitory building, chasing the crow flying above, his neck and shoulders were pulling painfully, and the hot breath exhaled turned into fog in the dark night.

He didn't know what was going on now, he didn't know if it was a dream.

Just now he asked the crow what was going on and how he could cure this "petrification disease", and the crow asked him to come along.

Although it was night, and the crow was pitch black, it seemed to have a strange luster, and the darkness could not hide its figure.

At this time, it gradually flew low from the sky and flew into the woods behind the dormitory building.

Zhou Haorui ran for a while, stood in front of the woods, stopped, the cold wind blew, and the old telephone poles pulled the messy wires, shaking slightly. The shadows in the woods were heavy, and there was the rustling of the wind and the blowing of the branches and leaves of the trees.

Every university may have its own urban legend, but there is an urban legend at the University of Technology that the woods behind the dormitory buildings have died.

A couple had a conflict, and the woman committed suicide here.

In the past, Zhou Haorui didn't believe in this legend very much, the reason is very simple, it is difficult to find a woman at Dahua Institute of Technology, there is only a female classmate in their class, and she is an ordinary girl in another school, but here she is a goddess, how many boys are holding it, how can she be willing to commit suicide.

But now, Zhou Haorui was blown by the night wind and had goosebumps all over his body, and the grove in front of him was like the desolate place in his dream.

He didn't have any idea what that crow was......

When he hesitated, a strange pain flashed on both back shoulders, and the adhesion of the shoulder bone became heavier, and the bulging bone seemed to be still growing.

Zhou Haorui remembered some autopsy pictures of progressive muscular ossification, and the back shoulder and back were not a shelf, but a whole piece of bone...... He didn't want to be like that. He was furious and walked into the woods.

The rustling of the wind and the shaking of the leaves became louder, but the not very tall and old trees weaved a chill.

Zhou Haorui's heart jumped quickly, and suddenly there was a cold flicker, he turned his head suddenly, and saw a big pine tree over there, the crow perched on a branch, it closed its wings, its claws fell steadily, and the bird's eyes were calm and sharp.

"You...... Hello. Zhou Haorui didn't know what to say.

A crow can talk, is that supernatural...... But is it really just a crow, or something else......

"In progressive muscular ossification, a mutation in the ACVR1 gene causes the 206-position codon in the ACVR1 protein to be replaced from arginine to histidine, which converts connective tissue and muscle tissue into ectopic bone, and also converts endothelial cells into mesenchymal stem cells, and then into bone," the crow said in a calm voice. ”

Although Zhou Haorui didn't understand it very well, these physiology were existing medical research, and he had seen them when he checked the information.

"But petrification is not progressive muscle ossification, it's not bone fibrous dysplasia, it's not McChuen-Albright syndrome."

The crow said two other diseases, but Zhou Haorui didn't understand anything this time, and said: "Petrification disease is built on their foundation. If it is allowed to spread, and if it is allowed to break out, it will cause hundreds of millions of people around the world to become zombies, life is worse than death, and the world will enter the apocalyptic era. ”

Hundreds of millions? If Zhou Haorui listened to Li Hui and others say this, he would definitely scoff.

But now the raven's words were like a prophetic power, and the calm voice carried certainty that sent chills to his heart.

"This, this ......," he said blankly, "like the disease of the New Legion?" ”

Until now, the shadow of the new legion's disease on this world has not completely dissipated.

For people like him who have not experienced the mysterious Mobei sandstorm, have no new children, and are not public figures, although they have usually read all kinds of occults, secret information and conspiracy theories, the first thing that comes to mind in the panic is the new legion's disease.

Moreover, Zhou Haorui's hometown is Derao City, not far from Shanhai City, which is one of the main epidemic areas of the New Army disease, and there was also an epidemic in Derao City at that time.

He had heard the lockdown alert, seen the Tianji vehicles, and later there was always a saying that if the epidemic at that time lasted for a few more days, the city of Derao would be completely finished.

"It's harder to deal with than the new legionnaire disease." "Legionnaires' disease spreads quickly and kills quickly, it can quickly destroy one area, but other areas that don't have an outbreak can be completely unaffected, much like Ebola." When the dark power behind the new Legionella is lifted, it becomes a disease that is only a little more incurable than the regular Legionnaires' disease, but it can be treated. Petrochemical disease is different.

It is a genetic disease that alters the physiology of the human body itself, and there is no cure. And it does not kill quickly, and the patient can live for several years in agony, but it requires medical resources and the energy and time of the family to take care of it. It's not just one patient, it's not just eight hundred or a thousand, it's an epidemic, and once it happens, there can be tens of millions of patients in a few months, they can't live normally, they can't move, they can't do anything. The petrification disease will drag down the affected cities, drag down the affected countries, and it will turn the world into an even more sick world, until it collapses completely. ”

Zhou Haorui was stunned when he heard this, and his heart was even colder......

If nine out of ten people in a society suffer from "petrification disease", and they can't live well or die, it will be ...... A terrible situation that cannot be imagined.

Nowhere can withstand that kind of pressure, and all order will collapse......

"How do you know?" He asked, hesitantly.

The answer to this question is important, for what purpose and in what position is this crow?

Will it be a dark force...... The crow always seems to mean ominous......

Zhou Haorui unconsciously took a step back, and the idea of turning around and running away from the woods flashed in his heart......

He wanted to call the Tianji hotline, and he should have called the Tianji hotline when he was in the dormitory, but at that time, he lost his mind, so he had to quickly call the Tianji Bureau, tell him about his situation, crows, and petrification diseases, and let Captain Gu deal with them...... Then you might still be saved, right......

Oh no, I ran out in a hurry just now and didn't bring my phone......

"The Heavenly Machine Bureau can't save you." The raven said, as if she could read his inner thoughts, "I can." ”

The ghostly light of the two birds' eyes was dazzling, Zhou Haorui stopped and asked blankly, "What are you?" ”

"Raven." Again, it says, "The raven hates sickness." ”
