Chapter 45, Lu An's commission
It's this god of reincarnation again, won't it have anything to do with Zhang Tongtong again?
Yang Ke is now allergic to Zhang Tongtong, and always feels that everything has something to do with him.
The cruelty of the umbilical cord ceremony made Yang Ke suffer a lot of shock.
Fortunately, the baby was already stillborn when Cagle used it, so he could accept it a little bit in his heart.
Perhaps Patient Four didn't know this when he came back to life, so he thought that Lori had been killed by Cagle.
At the same time, he also understood why Kumen said that Lori was in the body of Patient Four.
The Lori he was referring to at the time should be Lori's umbilical cord.
There is still about half a translation left, and Yang Ke continued to look down.
December 28, 1785.
The ritual was not a great success, and although the umbilical cord ritual did pull back the soul of Patient Four, he was completely reduced to a pile of flesh and blood in an inhumanoid form.
However, at least it proves that the soul does exist, but there may be something wrong with the materials of the ritual.
December 29, 1785.
A special guest came today, he forcibly bought the bodies of patients three and four, including Lori, I wanted to refuse, but he even used some force to achieve his goal.
He claimed that his name was Chen Yuan, and I had heard his name, but in fact, there was no one in St. Knowles who did not know about the bloody torturer Chen Yuan.
The thirteen bloody hunter heads he hung on the gates of St. Norse are still fresh in people's minds.
Chen Yuan has black hair and black eyes, and has the standard yellow skin of an Oriental.
I don't understand why an Oriental man would have such a high position and power in St. Greos, but I know I can't offend him.
Chen Yuan asked me to compile all the research materials to him, and I had to compromise with him in order to continue my experiments.
In addition, Harriet's symptoms are getting worse and worse, and she even wants to bite off my head when I feed her just now.
January 5, 1786.
After spending a week in a row, I finally finished sorting out all my past research, and found one thing in it that I had previously overlooked.
St. Greos's transfusion technique has already begun to bear fruit, and it is said that a nobleman named Fred Radner was infected with a beastly disease and allowed himself to live for an extra ten years.
I heard that he has been looking for a suitable blood source recently, maybe this is an opportunity for me.
That's the end of the translation.
Yang Ke felt a little unfinished.
Especially when he sees Fred's name appear again, he suddenly has the illusion that he is the hero of the story.
Fred actually lived for an extra ten years by exchange blood, and that was the eighteenth century, and there were really people who could survive by exchange blood.
This made Yang Ke even more curious about Fred's life.
At first, Yang Ke thought that Fred was just an ordinary infected person, but now it seems that the research he mentioned in the letter may be related to exchange transfusion.
Yang Ke was about to translate some more content later, but at this moment, his vision suddenly blurred, and when he opened his eyes again, he found that he had woken up.
How can it be so fast this time?
He picked up his phone and looked at the time, it was half past six in the morning, and he was still half an hour away from the alarm he had set.
And it's still Sunday.
I really want to get some sleep again.
But at the thought of returning to the hunter's dream once he fell asleep, Yang Ke instantly lost any sleep.
Forget it, let's get up.
Yang Ke rubbed his eyes, preparing to go to the hospital today to see Han Shi's situation.
By the way, check how many people you will be taking over tomorrow.
Washing and dressing, grinding for a while, the time is already half past seven.
Yang Ke locked the door, and when he was about to reach the third floor, he began to count down in his heart: "Three, two, one." ”
"Xiao Yang, handsome guy go out."
The landlord opened the door on time and greeted Yang Ke warmly.
Yang Ke looked at the bag of garbage she was carrying, and said without a trace: "Aunt Xiong, do you want me to help you throw it away?" Just go downstairs by the way. ”
"No, no, I have to go down for a walk, and it doesn't take much effort to throw away garbage. You go down first, I'll lock the door. ”
"Okay, then I'll go first, goodbye Aunt Xiong."
Yang Ke turned around and walked downstairs, and strangely, the landlord didn't pat him on the back this time.
Could it be that what she just said made her sad?
He thought about it casually and didn't really care.
Going to the hospital too early could easily affect Han Shi's rest, Yang Ke sent a message to Han Shi in advance, and then went to the nearby Eight Stone Pagoda Park first.
He didn't do anything, just sat on the shore, quietly looking at the calm water surface of the park lake in a daze, his eyes were empty, and he was completely empty.
The fog in the early morning was very heavy, and Yang Ke chose to visit the park at this time, and there was no doubt that he could not see any good scenery.
At this moment, Yang Ke suddenly heard a plopping sound, as if a fish had turned over on the surface of the water.
Yang Ke found the source of the sound and found that the water surface fluctuated greatly, and it seemed that it should be a big fish.
"Yang Ke! Over here! ”
A figure waved desperately at Yang Ke on the stone bridge opposite.
Because it was too far away and the fog was too heavy, Yang Ke couldn't see the other party's face clearly.
I saw that the man picked something up from the ground and threw it at him with all his might.
Thump!
There was a plop again, and this time the splash was so big that it almost splashed on Yang Ke's face.
Only then did Yang Ke realize that it was not a big fish, but someone was throwing stones at him.
It was at least a hundred meters from the stone bridge opposite to the place where he was sitting, and this man's strength was really not small.
However, he is now a second-level hunter, and he is no longer a cat or dog as before.
Yang Ke looked around, picked up a pebble from the ground, and threw the pebble at the person who waved at him with all his might.
The pebbles he threw out made a graceful arc through the air, and a third of the way above the surface of the lake, the waves fell into the water with a thud.
"Hahaha, you're too vegetable."
There was a merciless taunt from the other side, and Yang Ke was completely annoyed at this time.
"You kid wait for me!"
Yang Ke got up and walked over there, he wanted to see who was playing tricks on him.
"You don't have to come here, I can go and look for you."
I saw that the people on the opposite stone bridge directly climbed over the guardrail of the stone bridge and jumped down.
Yang Ke was taken aback, he almost thought that the other party was going to commit suicide by throwing himself into the lake.
Although the water in the lake is not very deep, the bottom of the water is full of silt, and it is easy to be dangerous if you sink into it.
However, Yang Ke soon realized that his worries were completely unnecessary.
Because the man did not fall into the water, but stepped on the water.
Is it magic?
Yang Ke watched the other party step on the water and walk towards him.
As he got closer, he finally saw what the other person looked like.
It's none other than Lu An, who claims to be a private detective.
Yang Ke watched Lu An step on the water and walk in front of him, every time he took a step, a strange tentacle would emerge from the water against the bottom of his foot, so it would create the illusion that he was stepping on the water.
He was stunned by such a picture, what kind of ability is Lu An?
Lu An came to the shore, and with the support of the tentacles, he sat next to Yang Ke effortlessly, and saw him staring at the tentacles that disappeared from the soles of his feet, so he smiled and said: "This is my newly learned undead summoning technique, don't you feel handsome, it took me a lot of energy to get this thing." ”
Yang Ke naturally chatted with Lu An, and he was amazed: "You said that these tentacles in the water are undead? ”
"Well, almost, I don't know what it is, but it's pretty good anyway. I had wanted to summon a messenger for myself, but I accidentally summoned such a thing, and it wasted ten years of my life, and it would be a great loss if I didn't use it to pretend to be forced. ”
"How much? Decade?! Yang Ke was completely shocked now, just for such a thing, he actually had to pay ten years of life, and the price of this pretending to be forced was too great, right? However, thinking that Lu An and Zhang Tongtong were friends, maybe he was also an immortal, so he tentatively said, "You have a lot of life?" ”
Lu An said in a flat tone: "Originally, there should be eleven more years, but now there is less than a year left." ”
"You're not lying, are you?"
"Do you think I'm the kind of liar? Yang Ke, if you look at me like this, I will be sad. Well? Hey, you don't need to look at me with such pitiful eyes, I didn't think about dying, for me, life is like money, I can earn it when I spend it. ”
Yang Ke suddenly had a bad premonition, and he said vigilantly: "You are looking for me, you don't want to earn life, right?" ”
Lu An heartily patted Yang Ke's shoulder.
"Haha, you guessed it, since you guessed it all, then I'll be blunt, I want to entrust you with a task, and the reward is guaranteed to satisfy you."
"No."
Yang Ke decisively got up and left here.
Lu An hurriedly followed.
"No, let's listen to my remuneration first."
"There's no need, I won't believe a word of what you say."
"Didn't I just lie to you once, I told you everything you want to know, Yang Ke, Yang Ke, slow down, I promise not to do you this time, after all, my life is running out, I can't joke with my own life, right?"
"Not necessarily."
"Okay, don't you just want me to prove it to you."
Lu An trotted two steps in front of Yang Ke, then unzipped his coat, took off his coat and threw it on the ground.
Seeing that he was still continuing to take off his clothes, Yang Ke immediately took two steps back and said vigilantly: "What do you want to do?" ”
"Of course I want to prove it to you."
Lu An stripped his upper body and turned around, Yang Ke saw countless twisted black lines on his back, these black lines kept wriggling, as if there were countless insects moving under his skin.
And looking at the signs of these black lines, it is obvious that they are spreading in all directions.
"See, it won't take a year, as long as it takes half a year for these black lines to completely cover my whole body, and then I will be no different from a dead body."
"It's your business, and I don't have anything to do with it."
"You don't agree with that? You're too hard-hearted, aren't you? But it doesn't matter, who made me at fault first, then I'll tell you one more thing, just buy one get one free, the client I told you about before, Sun Hongli, he disappeared yesterday. ”
