Chapter 8 Chapter 108 Catching Turtles in the Urn

"Let's go to the east staircase first, and keep the farthest distance from the mouth."

The four of them, led by Jia Xin, walked slowly on the dark passage on the fifth floor, trying not to make a sound.

"Jia Xin, I feel that something is wrong with my mouth...... It's not his style to stay on the second floor all the time, if it's because his abilities are completely limited and he can't deal with the four of us as ordinary people, then why don't we take the initiative to find him? Zhang Chen said.

"It's possible, but I'm not 100% sure it's the reason. There is also a possibility that the reason why Kou Yan is hiding on the second floor is not to hide from us, but to hide from things in the hospital. Kou had intended to look for us as soon as he entered the hospital, but he happened to run into the 'troublesome guy' mentioned in the envelope. ā€

"If this is the possibility, it is very likely that we can still use a small part of the ability, and if we take the initiative to find the door, it is very likely that we will be in the mouth of the tiger. It is not ruled out that you may meet 'troublesome guys' on the way. Jia Xin carefully observed the situation on the road ahead and explained in detail.

"In other words, judging from the current situation, if we are all on the eighteenth floor underground......" Zhang Chen gradually understood what Jia Xin meant.

"If we were all on the eighteenth basement floor, according to what the envelope said, the 'troublesome guys' would appear much more frequently, and it would be extremely dangerous for both the mouth and us. I'm wondering if I can put a trap on the eighteenth floor. ā€

"The four of us are still extraordinary compared to normal people, Zhang Chen, your instinctive perception and Xiaobai's sense of smell are both very good ability to predict danger, and Insect Firefly's insect control method is an extremely safe detection ability in this environment, once we reach the eighteenth floor, our advantages will be quickly revealed. That's the plan for the time being, but the current verbal may have one more advantage over us. Jia Xin added.

"What advantages?"

"Kou Yan may have met the 'troublesome guys' here, or even had deep contact. I know some of the other party's abilities and self-protection measures. In order for the mouth to not have this advantage, we also need to meet with what is lingering here. ā€

"Meet?" Zhang Chen felt a frustration in his heart, because it didn't sound like a good method.

"It's not that we go to see it, but Xiaobai's junior brother to see it, and the worst case is that even if Xiaobai dies, we can get information about the so-called 'troublesome guy'. So much so that I was able to lay out a well-thought-out plan later. ā€

"Exchange Xiaobai's death for intelligence? I know that as long as Xiaobai keeps a body in the outside world, even if the subject dies, the body in the outside world can survive immediately. But Xiaobai's doppelganger shouldn't be able to enter the hospital again, right? ā€

"You can't get in without a pass, but it's enough for the three of us. Zhang Chen, you have to understand that the most dangerous thing in this hospital is 'her', not verbal. To lay out any plan without figuring out 'her' is simply to kill yourself. ā€

"En......" Zhang Chen squinted at Xiao Bai beside him, and his emerald green eyes seemed to have such a plan.

The four of them made their way to the dilapidated staircase to the east, and encountered nothing unusual, probably much less likely to appear on the upper floors of the hospital as the letter said.

When the four of them walked up the stairs to the first floor, they didn't see a corridor that continued downward.

"Seems a little troublesome...... I thought it was 9:30 a.m. Many of the structures in the hospital will change. It seems that I was mistaken, there is indeed a corridor to the eighteenth basement floor, but this corridor should be hidden somewhere on the first floor. It's a little troublesome, and now I don't know if this person has taken the elevator to the eighteenth basement floor. ā€

"I'm going to explore the first floor of the entire hospital, and maybe the swarm will be able to find it." Insect fireflies are yƬ.

"Well, let's hide for a while."

The four of them came out of the corridor and hid in a closed ward, and after five minutes the swarm returned, they did not find a clear downward corridor. But there was a startling discovery.

"The ground in the center of the hall on the first floor is hollow, and I suspect that the stairway to the ground floor may be there. And there are fresh blood stains in the walkway on the southeast side. ā€

"Huh? Fresh blood in the southeast side walkway? It's hard to be so unlucky. He got into trouble on the first floor? Follow me to the hallway where the bloodstains are, and then Firefly you have the swarm do a carpet search of the hall to see if there are any traps in the hall that can open the passage you are talking about. ā€

As the four of them approached the bloodstain, they passed through the hall and turned into the aisle on the southeast side, and the end of the aisle that they couldn't see was shining with a glimmer of light.

"Light?"

This is the structure of this kind of psychiatric hospital, and it is not as extensive as it is today. At the end of the aisle in front of you is a dead end. The light source appears to be an old emergency light.

"Wait......" Jia Xin opened his arms to block everyone, "Xiaobai, are you ready?" ā€

"Yes." Xiao Bai nodded slightly, and walked in front first.

Soon, everyone came to the fresh blood stains detected by the insect firefly, Zhang Chen leaned down and dipped his finger on the sticky blood on the ground with his hand. The flesh and bones were suppressed, but there was still a sense of homology in this close-up contact.

"It's good blood in the mouth."

"Looks like something is in trouble. The blood here proves two things, the first is that the ability to speak is not completely closed. The second thing is that if we encounter this thing, we will basically die. Is there any progress in the situation in the Hall of Fireflies? ā€

"There is a switch under the painting on the column of the central service desk in the lobby of the hospital, which is supposed to open the opening of the underground passage."

"Good!" After Jia Xin and Xiao Bai made eye contact, Xiao Bai continued to walk towards the end of the passage where there was light. And Jia Xin and Xiao Bai kept a distance of three meters, but as everyone moved forward, nothing Jia Xin thought would appear from the light in front of them.

"Didn't you?" The crowd came to the end of the aisle.

However, just when everyone stopped at the end, Zhang Chen's body suddenly stunned for some reason, feeling the same cold fear in his bathroom when he first became a prison envoy, but the feeling coming from behind him was thousands of times more dangerous.

"Woohoo!"

The sound of glass shattering came from behind everyone, and Jia Xin couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, the current situation was not much different from catching turtles in the urn.

"I'm here to stall for time, and you can see if you can get around from both sides." Xiaobai stood in front of everyone without fear.

"Boom! Bang! ā€

On both sides of the walkway, the iron doors that had been slightly open began to close one by one as a dangerous aura approached. The feeling of the sound coming from afar and nearer made everyone's minds tense.

Because of the illumination of the emergency lights behind him, a dark mist gradually appeared five meters in everyone's sight.

"Steady!" Jia Xin muttered cautiously, everyone present felt an incomparable sense of oppression because of the approach of the fog, and in the fog, Zhang Chen instinctively felt death.

"What is this?" At this moment, together with the clown in Zhang Chen's body, he was shocked, "Zhang Chen boy, don't be locked by the other party." ā€

It was the first time Zhang Chen had heard such frightened words from the clown.

"Steady, everyone don't move, listen to my instructions." Jia Xin's back was already soaked in cold sweat, but he still calmed himself down at this moment, and the time was not yet ripe.

Five, four, three!

In everyone's eyes, a pair of white palms began to emerge from the mist, and the long red nails made everyone present feel palpitations.

Ten hands appeared, and Xiao Bai, who was standing at the forefront, couldn't help but move his left foot back a step.

"Senior brother!" The ten palms in front of Xiao Bai were in a hugging posture, only two meters away from Xiao Bai.

"Right now, wait!"

Jia Xin's hands were clenched into fists, and the heart of his fist was full of sweat.

When he was within two meters of Xiao Bai, his ten arms had already begun to straighten forward, and his long bright red nails swayed in the air as his fingers swayed. At this time, the shadow of a human head gradually appeared at the top of the mist, a dark blue face and bloodshot eyes emerged from the mist, and the terrifying female head stared at the four people in front of her.

"Xiaobai, do it!"

Xiao Bai did not hesitate to step forward directly and took the initiative to go towards the woman in the mist, and the moment the red nails touched Xiao Bai's skin, Xiao Bai's entire body immediately changed into a whole white snake. The human form is the illusion of Xiaobai, and the white snake is Xiaobai's true form.

A large white snake tail envelops the mist.

"Let's go!"

Jia Xin didn't hesitate to pass through from the left side, and Zhang Chen grabbed the palm of the insect firefly at the same time and tried to pass through the right side. In a seemingly quick moment, when Zhang Chen was passing through the fog, if he had saved his heart, his heart must have completely stopped beating.

In Zhang Chen's eyes, once Xiao Bai's body was touched by red nails, it was immediately scraped through the epidermis, revealing the terrifying flesh below. The flesh inside was pulled and turned into strands of blood and sucked into the mist.

"Brother Zhang Chen!"

The insect firefly that was pulled in Zhang Chen's hand suddenly shouted, because the five nails grabbed along with the pale arm towards Zhang Chen's heart.

"Click!" The red nails sank into the wall, and at the critical moment, Zhang Chen dodged over. When Zhang Chen moved his gaze upward, the woman's head floating in the mist was staring at him with scarlet eyes, and her dark blue lips actually showed a smile.

"Hurry up to the hall!"

After the three of them broke away from the fog, they ran separately and left the passage, and Zhang Chen couldn't help but turn his head when he turned the corner.

The snake skin on Xiaobai's body has been torn off one by one by red nails, and a shriveled snake body falls to the ground, and the woman in the mist gradually seeps into the ground and disappears...... (To be continued......)
