Chapter Thirty-Nine: Dead Apostles?

At this moment, I tried my best to look away from the terrifying face. But for some reason, no matter how much I tried to persuade myself in my mind, I couldn't take my eyes off it.www.biquge.info

At that moment, a stream of fluid flowed from its hollow eyes, accompanied by a pungent smell of blood. A thought popped into my head: "Could it be ...... This is the uncle's son?! ”

Immediately my idea was confirmed, and it slowly lifted its twig-like arm, twisted it, and placed a stone-like object on the cabinet beside my bed. Then its back bent down, leaving its entire head in the air.

It slowly brought its head closer to my bedside, and its hideous, extremely distorted face appeared clearly in front of me. I swallowed a mouthful of saliva, beads of sweat oozing from my forehead.

"Please... Could you please put that... Jade, leave it to me...... Daddy......" It finished speaking, and its figure gradually began to blur, and disappeared without a trace in a moment.

I looked at the stone it placed on the table, and I couldn't calm down for a long time, and finally survived until dawn.

Uncle woke up early in the morning and woke up just after dawn, but he didn't seem to notice that I had woken up. I could tell from his expression that he didn't look away at all, and his face was still full of sadness and pain. Maybe he just pretended to be yesterday and didn't want us to worry about him.

"Morning," Hu Fang said, pushed open the door of the ward, and walked in with Li Zhisheng with two breakfasts in his hand. As soon as she came in, she asked, "How is it, do you feel better?" I squinted tiredly and said, "It's okay, it's okay." ”

Li Zhisheng saw that I hadn't slept well, so he walked over and asked softly, "Did something happen last night?" I didn't speak, just nodded slightly. He seemed to sense that something might happen, and frowned at the old man beside him.

Hu Fang also walked to my bed and put the breakfast in her hand on the bedside table. But as soon as she put it down, she sighed curiously, and then picked up the crystal clear jade on the table and said, "Where did this come from?" When the old man on the side heard it, he also looked back.

Before I could explain, as soon as the old man saw the jade in Hu Fang's hand, he hurriedly sat up from the bed, snatched the jade, and asked in surprise, "Where did this come from?!" As he spoke, he looked at Hu Fang with surprised eyes. Hu Fang was overwhelmed by this sudden move, and thought that he had done something wrong, and said with a blank face: "I... What I see here... Is it yours? As she spoke, she gestured to the bedside table in front of her.

After listening to her, the old man looked at the stone without saying a word. The atmosphere in the room became very strange for a while, and after a while, the uncle raised his head, his eyes were full of tears, and he choked up and asked me: "Young man, tell me honestly, did anyone come last night?" ”

I originally wanted to wait for the uncle's mood to ease down a little before telling him about it, but seeing that I couldn't hide it anymore, I had to tell him what happened last night.

After hearing this, tears instantly burst out of his eyes, and he held the jade with trembling hands, crying uncontrollably. Hu Fang and Li Zhisheng didn't know what to do when they saw this situation, so I opened my mouth without thinking and asked, "Uncle, what is the matter with this jade, can you tell me?" ”

The old man ignored me, just stroked the jade by himself, sat on the edge of the bed and cried silently. At this moment, the voices of two women came from outside the door, and they were talking about what was happening in the old man's house.

As he listened, the uncle stood up and slowly walked to the end of the bed. I suddenly realized something, and I secretly screamed in my heart that it was not good. I hurriedly shouted, wanting Hu Fang and Li Zhisheng to stop the uncle, but it was too late.

Without hesitation, the uncle rushed to the window in front of him, and then jumped into the ......

Everyone froze in place, with an extremely shocked expression on their faces, and the nurse passing by the door happened to see this amazing scene.

There was a silence around the surroundings with the sound of glass breaking, and the bright sunlight shone through the smashed windows, and a few small birds landed on the edge of the windows, chirping.

Suddenly, the outside of the room was like an explosion, and the nurse, who had just witnessed all this, shouted in horror, "Someone has jumped off the building!" At the same time, he hurriedly ran out.

Hu Fang and Li Zhisheng stood in place, and one of Li Zhisheng's outstretched hands was still in the air. I hurriedly shouted to Li Zhisheng: "Let's see if he is still alive, why are you stunned?!" Li Zhisheng shook his head and said, "It's impossible to live, this is the eleventh floor ......."

I sighed deeply and said, "What a terrible man, a man who could have lived a good life died of indifference like this." After Hu Fang heard what I said, she couldn't help but shed tears.

After that, someone called the police and investigated. Because the three of us are the main witnesses, it is inevitable that we will also be investigated.

……

It took a few weeks for the matter to fade away. On this day, my attending doctor came to check on the ward, and he examined it and said, "You are almost fine now, and you can remove the gauze." When I heard this, I was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Then can I be discharged from the hospital too?" The doctor nodded and said, "If there is no problem after removing the gauze, you can be discharged from the hospital." ”

Hu Fang and Li Zhisheng have been boiling up for a long time, both of them have lost more than ten pounds, and I should have gained more than ten pounds. When they heard the news, they seemed happier than I was, and they high-fived them in celebration. After a while, the doctor called in several nurses to help remove the gauze.

As the gauze slowly removed from my arm, I noticed that it was almost entirely covered with scars from the gnawing of demons. But as the gauze became less and less, I gradually noticed some dark red marks.

Li Zhisheng was also taken aback, the mark on the back of his hand before only grew to the wrist. But now, I saw that it had grown beyond my elbows, and it was almost up to my shoulders.

When the gauze was completely removed, the doctor smiled and said to me: "Your tattoo is very environmentally friendly, everyone has a dragon and a tiger, you have a big tree." "I didn't have the heart to joke now, I just smiled wryly and didn't speak again.

Seeing that the gauze on his limbs had been removed, he hurriedly said, "Doctor, do you see that there is no problem now, if there is no problem, can I be discharged from the hospital?!" ”

The doctor looked at it and said, "There is no problem, but you should also pay attention to your cultivation when you go home." "I thanked the doctor, got out of bed, changed my clothes, and went to the discharge procedure.

After that, we will return the rented car and then take the bus directly to Zhengzhou Airport. On the way, Hu Fang, who was sitting on the side, asked, "The mark on your hand... How did it grow so fast? I thought for a moment and said, "If I'm not mistaken, this should be the sequelae of the awakening of the void, and the longer you use that power, the faster the mark on your hand will grow." ”

She asked worriedly, "Then if you go on like this, won't you ......" I nodded and said, "I may be replaced by the void, and I can clearly feel it now that I may not be able to control the void." Take the case of the old man in the hospital, for example, I was able to see ghosts even when I didn't feel the void awake at all. This also shows that the mark on my hand actually has the effect of suppressing the void, and the longer the mark grows, the weaker the suppressive force may be. ”

Hu Fang didn't seem to understand very well, but nodded politely. And Li Zhisheng, who was sitting alone in the back row, said after listening: "This is actually just like the truth I told you before, using wood to overcome soil." But at the current rate of growth, it is estimated that it will not last long. ”

I looked back at him and said, "Well, now I have to go back and hope for that parchment booklet." However, before I go back, I have one more thing to confirm...... "The sender of the fourth letter?" Li Zhisheng took my words and said. I replied perfunctorily, "It may be ......," and I fell into deep thought.

Without saying a word all the way, the three of them came to the airport. I went straight to the service desk without saying a word, and when I saw that there were just three tickets left, I bought them without saying a word. After more than two hours of flying, the plane finally arrived in the city where I lived.

After getting off the plane, we got into a taxi, and I asked the driver to drive directly to the exhibition hall that Situ owned. When Li Zhisheng heard that I was going there, he asked in some surprise, "Do you suspect that it is a Dead Apostle?" I nodded and said, "It's just a suspicion now, it's not entirely certain that it's him, and it's unknown for what purpose he came to know what happened to me." ”

"How could you suspect that something else was coming?" Li Zhisheng asked puzzled. "I'm just guessing, because when we were trying to find clues from the surveillance, it somehow failed. It was dead during the day, and it couldn't have been a ghost. In addition, considering the purpose of the fourth letter, I think the most likely explanation is that everything in Fengmen Village was arranged by him. ”

As he spoke, the car had stopped at the entrance of the exhibition hall. It was almost dusk, but fortunately, the exhibition hall was not closed. I gave the car money and walked in with Li Zhisheng and Hu Fang.

The exhibition management was empty, except for the exhibits lying quietly in the display cases. Seeing that there was no one, Hu Fang shouted thoughtlessly: "Hello?" Anyone? The voice echoed through the empty exhibition hall. After a while, the voice of the Dead Apostle came from the backroom, "Come in, I'm in the backroom." "He seems to have already guessed that we will come for him, so he can wait here.

We walked to the back hall and saw the Dead Apostle still sitting at the old round table, and when he saw us coming in, he beckoned us to come and sit down. And instead of sitting directly in my chair, I walked straight to the Dead Apostles. I stood in front of him, frowned and asked, "Who are you and why the hell are you helping us?!" ”
