Chapter 4: A Nightmare That Won't Wake Up

That night, Lu Qing secretly left the hospital. Although he didn't know exactly what was going on, he reminded himself that something had to be done.

Mina and Tempo's safety is at stake in his life, and now that Mina has not met him, there is no way to explain all this. What makes Lu Qing most anxious now is Tianbao's situation, and it can be inferred from the nameless email before crossing that Tianbao will inevitably face an unknown danger after a year.

At the same time, the mysterious woman in the ward made Lu Qing realize that a powerful and irreversible force was controlling and controlling his fate.

Tianbao's phone has been unanswered, Lu Qing was relieved, so he drove to his apartment. But I didn't go far before I felt targeted. Lu Qing cautiously looked around at the vehicles in front and behind, but did not find anything abnormal. And the sense of crisis in my heart has not gone away for a long time.

Lu Qing subconsciously stepped on the accelerator, ready to grit his teeth and run through the red light in front of him, but just when he crossed the intersection, a truck suddenly hit his car.

In a trance, Lu Qing felt that he was being put on a huge glass platform. A group of people were pointing and pointing at him, and others stuck finger-thick tubes down his throat, a gasp of vomiting stuck in his throat. Immediately afterwards, Lu Qing felt as if he had been pricked by a needle in his neck, and then completely lost consciousness.

"Good, the test subject's will is getting more and more tenacious." A man in a blue uniform with gold edges stood in front of the glass platform and said in an indifferent tone.

"The thirteenth replantation surgery can be started to gradually increase the body's capacity." Another middle-aged brunette suggested.

"It's getting closer and closer to success, and there must be no half-point spread pool at this time." The man in blue released extreme longing in his tone.

"Yes, sir." The black-haired doctor bowed slightly.

"Mobilize all the elite forces of the six departments to protect the test subjects with all their might. Those people cannot be given any chance. The man in blue commanded into the watch-like communication device.

But at this moment, the huge laboratory suddenly began to shake violently, and a piercing alarm sounded. It was as if there was an earthquake.

"What happened?" The man in blue asked in a deep voice.

"My lord, we have been attacked. However, the source of the attack is not clear, and it seems to be an undirected penetrating attack. A guard covered in blue armor reported.

"It's so pervasive. Preparing the transport vehicle, I'm going to take the test subject to headquarters. The man in blue said with a blue face.

"Yes."

I don't know how long it took, a violent explosion woke Lu Qing up. Upon waking up, he found himself locked in an almost hermetically sealed cylindrical metal container. Lu Qing looked through the small hole in the wall of the container, and could only see a raging sea of fire.

"Damn." Lu Qing kicked the container hard, and at this moment, the temperature inside the container was soaring sharply. If you don't get out of it as soon as possible, then it is likely to turn into a canned barbecue.

In a hurry, Lu Qing looked up and found that there seemed to be some gaps in the lid of the container above his head. He slammed it to the side, and the cylindrical container fell over and turned around and kicked the lid off.

Finally out of trouble.

Lu Qing looked at the surroundings and found himself in an ancient burial chamber, with three sarcophagi placed around, and the cylindrical container was right in the middle of the three sarcophagi. There was a pungent smell coming from the vicinity of the sarcophagus, as if it was this gas that caused the combustion.

Where is this? Why am I here? Just when Lu Qing was panicking, an ethereal voice suddenly sounded in his mind.

"Get the beads...... You'll be able to come back. ”

Hearing this sudden voice, Lu Qing was almost frightened. Who is talking to himself in this sealed tomb? As the flames around the sarcophagus were still burning, and the oxygen in the burial chamber was getting thinner and thinner, Lu Qing's breathing was becoming more and more difficult.

And the voice in my head continued.

"Open the sarcophagus...... Get the beads...... You'll be able to come back ......."

Who the hell is ordering me? What does he want to do? Put me in a metal jar and get here to rob the grave? Lu Qing's mind was running rapidly, and he found that all this was impossible to explain.

"You time...... Not much......"

Lu Qing couldn't help gritting his teeth and came to a sarcophagus, the strange thing was that the lid of this coffin weighed a thousand catties, but he could easily remove it. A foul smell came from the sarcophagus, like the smell of rotting meat products. Lu Qingqiang endured the stench and looked towards the sarcophagus by the firelight, because he was not mentally prepared enough, he was frightened by the scene inside.

In the sarcophagus is a decomposing corpse, but the corpse's hairstyle is very strange, and it does not look like a modern person at all. Because the corpse's face was swollen and rotten, Lu Qing could only deduce the identity of the tomb owner from his hair and clothing, and to his surprise, the owner of the sarcophagus seemed to be the Ainu, a native of Hokkaido, Japan.

During his university studies, Lu Qing traveled to Hokkaido, Japan, with his mentor, a famous historian, where he met the few Ainu people in the world. At that time, Lu Qing had followed the professor to conduct in-depth research on this indigenous race. Although the origin of this native has never been understood. But they are familiar with their customs, culture and clothing.

Look at the corpse in front of you, as well as the two remaining sarcophagi. Lu Qing racked his brains and couldn't understand why he came to the tomb of the natives in Hokkaido, Japan. And as far as the situation of the burial is concerned, it does not correspond to the funeral customs of the Ainu people at all.

As his breathing became more and more rapid, Lu Qing had no time to think about it. After rummaging through the corpse's costume for a while, it finally came to a dark green wooden bead. Although the beads were in hand, the voice did not sound again. Don't...... Lu Qing looked at the remaining two sarcophagi. The food in the stomach is violently inflated, and it can squirt out of the mouth at any time along the esophagus.

Lu Qing slowly took a deep breath and pushed open another sarcophagus. It was found to be a female corpse, and the corpse was even more decomposed. When he took out the dark green wooden bead, he inadvertently brought a piece of rotting flesh out of the sarcophagus. Lu Qing secretly swore in his heart that he would never have any intersection with the rotting corpse again in this life.

When Lu Qing took out the wooden beads from the last sarcophagus, the voice that made him look forward but shudder sounded again.

"Do it...... Not bad. Immediately, Lu Qing's head was like being hit hard by a baseball bat, and he fell unconscious after a sharp pain.

In another laboratory with various precision instruments, Lu Qing is still lying on the glass operating table.

"The strength of the body is not enough, and this recall caused internal organs and brain hemorrhage, which is very troublesome. It appears that a fourteenth operation will be required. A middle-aged black-haired doctor frowned.

"Will there be any side effects? Multiple genetic modifications can lead to unpredictable variables. Another female doctor with a hot figure also frowned.

"That's exactly what I'm worried about, the purpose of the experiment has been achieved. But if something happens to the subject at this time......" The black-haired doctor's face was a little unnatural.

"I know your concerns. But the martyrs of the Nine Divisions have returned to their thrones one after another, and we in the Six Divisions cannot disappoint the Pope. Surgery right away, we don't have much time left. "A man in blue with a bandage on his head walks into the lab.

"Yes, sir." The middle-aged doctor with short black hair sighed.

In his sleep, Lu Qing entered another wonderful world. Tall fruit trees grow everywhere, and they are full of fruits of all kinds that have never been seen before. Feeling so hungry that he struggled to climb a fruit tree, plucked it and began to devour it.

But the next moment, Lu Qing found himself turned into a hungry wolf again, and entered a village hungry, the ferocious desire in his blood began to burn, and although his will struggled wildly, he couldn't control the desire of the flesh. He saw himself pounce on a child who was running for his life, biting his throat as the child cried out in fear.

"No......" Lu Qing woke up from a nightmare.

When he woke up this time, Lu Qing was shocked to find that he had returned to the rental house, as if nothing had happened. The calendar on the wall shows the date of August 13, 2016. Lu Qing hurriedly got up and opened the window, and saw Lao Hu who was walking on the street, always with a familiar smile on his face. There is also the busy sister-in-law Liu, and the bouncing Lily. Lu Qing, who didn't know why, hurriedly picked up the phone again and dialed his cousin's number.

"Hey, cousin......"

"How are you all? What about my uncle and aunt? ”

"Well, it's all good, what's wrong with you......"

Could it be that everything that has happened these days is just a dream? Although everything familiar has reappeared in front of him, Lu Qing always feels as if there is a kind of worry in his heart that has been ignored, and everything is definitely not as simple as what he sees in front of him. Suddenly, he slapped the back of his head and thought of Mina and Tempo.

Lu Qing urgently dialed Mina's phone, but the prompt tone in the microphone poured cold water on his fiery heart: The number you dialed is empty. In this year, how can the phone number that has been firmly engraved in the mind be empty? Lu Qing rushed out of the residence in a frenzy and drove away at a gallop.

In less than half an hour, Lu Qing came to Mina's company. Rushed past the security guards to Mina's office, only to find a middle-aged woman in her forties sitting inside.

"Where's Mina?" Lu Qing couldn't control his emotions at all, and asked anxiously.

"Who's Mina? Who let you in? The middle-aged woman accused coldly.

Hearing this answer, Lu Qing's whole person fell into an ice cave. He then went to Mina's house, but learned from the landlord that there were no tenants living there.

Lu Qing searched almost everything related to Mina, but got a fact that made him almost collapse. The lover with whom he spent a year has inexplicably evaporated, or rather, it should be said that it never existed at all.

What about that heavenly treasure? Lu Qing had already predicted that a year later, Tianbao would definitely face unknown dangers, so what is Tianbao's current situation? Lu Qing hurriedly dialed Tianbao's phone, but found that Tianbao's phone was still in a state of unreachable.

Everything seems to have returned to square one, Lu Qing has found everything, but he has lost everything. This experience is like a series of nightmares, which makes Lu Qing confused and frightened, in the end, which dream is real? When and where did you wake up from your dream? He was always hard to tell.
