Chapter 25: The Infirmary Changes

Unlike ordinary locust trees, which are tall and straight, no matter how many years they have grown, the canopy is as tall as a person, and it is almost impossible to find them hidden in the bushes.

Its terrifying thing is that its roots are extremely developed, covering an astonishing area, and can penetrate the hardest rock walls, pry open the most tightly sealed iron coffins, and plunge into the corpses to absorb corpse qi and yin qi.

Once it has absorbed enough corpse qi, it can control the corpse to hunt for more nutrients for it.

It's best to have corpses, and when there are none, it transforms all nearby creatures into corpses.

If this thing appears elsewhere, I don't bother to take it seriously, but this is the Madaling Fortress, and I don't know how many laborers are buried here.

How terrifying will it be to suck up the fishy locust of mass graves? Even I shudder at the thought of how terrible it is.

This road is obviously impassable, so we can only take the risk of advancing to the middle level and then find another way out.

I slid down the iron frame on the side of the stone platform to the entrance of the middle floor, and saw that there was nothing unusual in it.

I turned around and beckoned to everyone, "Come here."

Xie Zhijian walked in the front as he could, and when he came up, he scolded me: "Are you sure it's safe here?" ”

His tone full of contempt made me very uncomfortable, no one had spoken to me in such a tone for a long time, even if Luo Kaishan and Lu Jun were in front of me, they didn't dare to be so arrogant.

I replied coldly, "Listen to me, and you will be safe." ”

Xie Zhijian glanced at me disappreciatively, turned around and told everyone to hurry up.

I opened the way first, but the palms of my hands holding the three-edged thorns were sweating.

I have been here with Master in the early years, and I have only heard the upper level and the middle and lower levels have only heard Master talk about it, although I know where to avoid taboos, but after all, I have not experienced it myself, and I can't be sure if there have been any changes over the years, so I must be extra careful.

Thankfully, the walls of the middle level of the corridor are covered with concrete, reducing the risk of landslides.

But it didn't take long for a heavy chemical protection door to block the way, and there were big red paint marks on the door, but because of the age, I couldn't see it clearly, so I raised my hand to wipe off the floating ash on it, and I barely recognized the words "infirmary".

Japanese sometimes has a similar meaning to Chinese, and the infirmary is the infirmary.

Although the chemical protection door is rough, it is strong and heavy, and it has long been corroded by moisture and rusty, but it is still tightly closed. Although it wasn't locked, I didn't pull it twice, so I had to turn around and ask Xie Zhijian: "Which of you brought oil?" ”

Xie Zhijian didn't answer, looked back at everyone, and everyone shook their heads.

I reluctantly said, "Pencils are fine." ”

The hostess Xu Yujia rummaged through her pockets and hurriedly handed me one.

I scraped off the veneer with a triangular thorn and pulled out the refill, ground it into powder, and carefully poured it into the gap between the door shafts.

I waved my hand to signal everyone to retreat, and then pulled back hard, and in a creaking sound that made people squeak, the chemical protection door slowly opened, the dust fell, the smoke and dust dispersed, and the situation in the infirmary was displayed under the strong light.

This is a flat and wide room, with a passage in the middle, and rows of iron frame beds on both sides, each with hanging bottle shelves at the head of each bed, some of the shelves are still hanging hanging bottles and rubber tubes, some of the beds are also bulging and seem to be stacked with quilts, and some of the quilts can still be seen under the human shape, but they are all covered with dust, and the head of the bed and the shelf are still wrapped with spider web-like ash chains.

People closer to the door couldn't help but exclaim in amazement when they saw this scene.

But before they could speak, I raised my hand to stop them and waved back.

Seeing this, everyone hurriedly retreated, retreating more than a dozen steps away, Xie Zhijian grabbed my sleeve: "What are you doing?" ”

I was almost impatient with his questioning, but thinking of the danger here, I had to suppress my anger: "Wait and go." ”

As I spoke, I turned to the crowd and lowered my voice and said, "From now on, don't pull a line of two, follow me, and then pass through here as fast as you can." ”

Liu Jixiang, who was carrying the camera, came up curiously and asked, "What's wrong?" Here......"

I interrupted him with a wave of my hand: "Remember, everyone, don't touch anything here, don't make any noise." ”

Everyone looked at each other, all of them wondering.

But I can't explain it.

At a quick glance just now, I could see clearly that the roof of the infirmary was already crawling with the roots of the fishy locust, and many of the roots had crawled along the walls and hanging bottle shelves to the bed, obviously the Japanese had evacuated in a hurry, leaving most of the seriously injured on the bed, and now these wounded, even if they did not form zombies, have become the minions of the fishy locust.

The situation was so serious that even I didn't expect it.

But for now, we can't go back to the more dangerous lower level, so we can only venture through here. Fortunately, although the fishy locust occupies this place, the roots of the fishy locust have been dormant for a long time, and as long as they are not stimulated, they will not wake up easily.

If I explain this to them, I'm afraid no one will dare to go on.

After making sure that everyone had heard me clearly, I pulled Xie Zhijian and me side by side and stepped into the infirmary together.

Although the air smells of dust, it is not stale, which shows that the Japanese ventilation design is quite perfect.

I held my breath and walked slowly, observing the surroundings while keeping an eye on the people behind me, but fortunately, everyone was quite obedient, and they all walked forward with bated breath, although the speed was not fast, but it should not be a problem to pass through in a minute or two.

However, after not going far, a stretcher truck stopped diagonally in the middle of the road, blocking the way, and it seemed that there were still corpses on board.

I shook my head at Xie Zhijian and motioned to move it together.

Xie Zhijian quietly clipped a talisman in his hand, obviously worried about the bones in the car.

I ignored him, and slowly lifted the stretcher bed with him, and slowly moved it to the side.

But at this moment, there was a sudden exclamation from the rear!

I saw Liu Jixiang, who was carrying the camera, suddenly threw the camera and retreated in panic!

What's even more worrying is that the camera was thrown to a nearby hospital bed by him!

I had something in my hand at this time, and it was too late to pick up the camera, and I saw that the camera was slamming on the head of the bed, and the red indicator light on it was still flashing, and the shooting mode was turned on.

And Liu Jixiang had already crashed into his companion who was following him.

The man also exclaimed in surprise, staggered, and led several people behind him to stagger, and I don't know which one, he actually knocked over the equipment cart on the side of the road, and the iron plates and utensils on the car were all scattered on the ground, and the smoke and dust around him were agitated.

I cursed in hatred, threw down the stretcher and rushed up.

Liu Jixiang fell to the front, and I grabbed him by the collar and dragged him up, but I saw that his feet were weak, and he seemed to have broken his feet.

At the same time, a series of creaks of iron beds sounded in the room, and everything on the bed actually moved, and the bottles and pipes on the hanging bottle shelves also began to shake, and there was a sound of squeezing overhead.

"Run!" I didn't care about anything else, so I threw Liu Jixiang on my back, picked him up and rushed towards the opposite exit.

We were at the front of the line, and if we didn't go first, the people behind wouldn't be able to run.

At this time, I couldn't hide my strength anymore, and with the strength under my feet, I had already rushed out of the room in a few arrow steps.

Outside the exit, there was another corridor, and there were rooms on both sides, apparently the advanced patient area, and the doors of the rooms were open at this time, but there was no movement in my senses, and it was obvious that the patients in the room had been evacuated.

I wanted to leave Liu Jixiang behind and go back to save people, but this guy didn't know where he got the strength, and he was wrapped around my back like an octopus, trembling and refusing to let go. By the time I threw him to the ground and tried to turn around, the crowd had already poured out of the room.

Yang Shu, who was supposed to be behind the palace, rushed up with a person under his arm at this time: "Save people." ”

I took a look, I couldn't help but gasp, most of this person's face was entangled in thin roots, some of the roots have writhed from his eyes, ears, mouth and nose to drill in, the pain made him scream, although the roots were cut off by a poplar knife, but still like a broken earthworm dead but not stiff, if they are allowed to drill down, this person will not be saved.

I pressed my palm on the top of his head, and the yang energy surged wildly, pouring down from the top door.

The man's screams were suddenly interrupted, and his mouth opened in anger, but he could no longer make a sound.

The roots entangled in his face writhed violently, but instead of drilling in, they were like earthworms that had encountered hot water, desperately shrinking outward.

The radish can be pulled out to bring out the mud, and the fine burrs on the roots have torn the flesh and skin, and the blood is like pulp, blurring the whole face.

When all those roots withdrew, I grabbed them in my hand and held them fiercely, and under the crushing of yang energy, all the roots were weak and drooping, and I threw them under my feet, and crushed them into bloody mud twice.

Looking behind him, Xie Zhijian and the others had already rushed out, and the chemical protection door of the infirmary was also closed tightly by everyone.

I breathed a sigh of relief and turned my head to look at Liu Jixiang who was slumped at the base of the wall.

When Liu Jixiang saw me looking at him, he struggled to get up and squeezed out a smile: "Thank you......"

As soon as he said this, I slapped him.

"Who made you shoot it!"

Liu Jixiang couldn't stand on one foot and was fanned against the wall by me, but he covered his face and still argued: "I'm not trying to shoot something, I can't come for nothing, who knows how it will ......"

"Will you!" The poplar kicked over, and immediately kicked him so that he bent down holding his stomach, and could no longer speak.

I didn't stop the poplar this time, and if the poplar didn't do it, I would want to go up and kick it twice.

This Liu Jixiang almost killed everyone because of his own selfish thoughts, and if he was put in the army, he would be punished more than just being beaten.

When Yang Shu was about to go up and beat him, Xie Zhijian came over with a gloomy face, I thought he wanted to stop us from repairing Liu Jixiang, and I even thought of a way to scold him.

But he didn't look at Liu Jixiang at all, but said to me in a deep voice: "I lost two people, Dongfang Hong and Xu Yujia are gone." ”
