Chapter 403: Brain-Eating Demon
Mao Nai said, "This method is called the Golden Needle Recall Method. I use 365 golden needles to stimulate 365 acupuncture points and meridians on your body to recall your memory. Compared with conventional treatment, this method will make you suffer a certain amount of pain. However, since all 365 positions have been demonstrated by me, in principle, there will be no accidental injury. ”
Ding Qin thought for a while, "Then I don't know what the specific cycle is?"
"With my original design, every three days is a cycle, and a total of five cycles are needed, that is, about half a month. ”
Ding Qin paused slightly, "Let me think about it again." Because I have come and a large number of people are following, I need to consult with them. If there are no special circumstances, I will come back tomorrow and receive treatment at the same time. ”
Mao Nai smiled calmly, "It's up to you. However, in order to shorten the duration of your treatment, I will prepare you for the treatment. ”
Ding Qin then separated from Mao Nai and returned to the inn alone. Seeing Mo Hafei and Song Renqing, he truthfully told him about the treatment. Neither of them objected, especially Song Renqing, who offered to lead a team to escort Ding Qin during the treatment.
Ding Qin did not refuse. To a certain extent, he preferred Song Renqing and the others to follow him, in case these people had different intentions and were not good for the Ailan tribe.
He was discussing with Mo Hafei about his business during his treatment when the noise of two women suddenly came from outside the house. Listen carefully, there is no doubt that it is Moyin and Cheng Ying.
Mo Yin was saying in fierce words, "Cheng Ying, what do you mean? Why do you want to follow us? You do this, you don't understand it? You still have a little face, right? People have faces, trees have bark, why are you not as good as trees?"
Cheng Ying's voice was still the same as the original slow teasing and asked, "Who said that I followed you?" The road leads to the sky, go one side, I see that the environment here is good, so I stayed." This girl has this leisurely feeling, you don't care?"
Mo Yin's anger was obviously stronger, "In this furnace city, there are no less than twenty inns of all sizes, why do you just live with us?"
Cheng Ying chuckled, "I said, who is following you? You feel like I'm in the way, don't look at me." Do whatever you want, whatever I want. You can find ways to throw yourself into someone's arms, and I can also take the initiative to sacrifice myself at any cost, and this depends on my own ability. ”
Mo Yin was furious, "What nonsense are you talking about! I'll tell you, if you dare to take a step towards us, don't blame me for being rude!"
The ridicule in Cheng Ying's tone was even more obvious, "Alas. If you want to fight, can you beat me?"
"Moyin. Mo Hafei and Ding Qin went out of the house together at this time, and Mo Hafei called out Mo Yin, who was already flushed with anger, "Miss Cheng Ying is right, you have no reason to ask for others." ”
As soon as she heard Mo Hafei's words, Cheng Ying hugged her hand to her chest as if she had a talisman, "Hehe, thank you uncle for upholding justice." ”
Ding Qin sighed lightly, took a few steps forward, and walked in front of Cheng Ying, "You come with me." ”
A triumphant smile suddenly appeared on Cheng Ying's face, "Okay." ”
Mo Yin waved his hand behind him, "What are you going to do?"
Ding Qin did not answer. Cheng Ying did not answer. Mo Yin wanted to follow, but was directly stopped by Mo Hafei, "You don't have to go." Ding Qin will settle this matter. ”
It wasn't until he walked outside the inn that Ding Qin stopped. He was just about to speak, but Cheng Ying took the initiative to say, "Did you see Mao Nai?"
Ding Qin was originally a little dissatisfied with Cheng Ying's behavior, but under Cheng Ying's inquiry, his heart warmed, and his tone of wanting to question eased a lot, "I see." He said that he had not cured me of such a situation, but he could try to cure it. He has a newly researched Golden Needle Recall Method, which takes half a month for a cycle, although I haven't used it before, but I want to try it. ”
Cheng Ying said, "Well, it's good to try." It's hope, isn't it?"
Ding Qin nodded, "Yes." Immediately, he changed the subject, "I called you out to tell you, please don't conflict with Moyin." ”
Cheng Ying smirked, "Where do I have the heart to clash with her?" It's her little girl, who has sex with me, and I don't mean to trouble her. Talking to her is far less interesting than talking to you. ”
Ding Qin looked at Cheng Ying, and his tone suddenly became a lot colder, "You don't have to be close to me." I remember saying that no matter what happens to you along the way, I don't care. ”
The smile on Cheng Ying's face slowly disappeared, and she said with a little disappointment, "Of course I remember." ”
Ding Qin said, "Hmm." Also, I want you to move out now and not live so close to us. ”
Cheng Ying's face sank, "Why? That little Nizi was looking for trouble when she saw me, and now she wants me to move away? The world is so big, and it's all her family's fault?"
"Forget it. Ding Qin saw that Cheng Ying did not cooperate, nor did he argue, so he just gave up, turned around and walked back.
Cheng Ying frowned and shouted from behind, "Hey, wait." I would also like to ask if you can help you with anything during your treatment. ”
"No, you don't. Ding Qin didn't look back, his voice was a little cold.
The night was uneventful. Although Cheng Ying did not agree to Ding Qin's request, she may have adjusted her entry and exit time and did not see Mo Yin again, so there was no dispute.
Early in the morning, Ding Qin and others went downstairs to the hall for breakfast. They had already made a plan, Ding Qin went for treatment, Song Renqing and others accompanied him, and Mo Hafei took people to the city to conduct some transactions.
Sitting down and waiting for the time to deliver the meal, Ding Qin overheard a message.
The Brain-Eating Demon has reappeared!
If you listen carefully, almost everyone in the entire hall on the first floor is talking about it.
Ding Qin's curiosity rose for a moment, and he turned to the people at the table next to him who were talking happily, "May I ask a few big brothers, what is the situation with this brain-eating demon?"
At the table sat four local-looking men, all in their forties, burly and dark-skinned. One of them looked at Ding Qin and asked suspiciously, "Are you outsiders?"
Ding Qin shook his head, "No." We are businessmen who just came yesterday. ”
The man suddenly realized, "Oh, I see. Let me tell you, this brain-eating demon is amazing, specially selected a child about ten years old, and suddenly one night, he may unknowingly knock open the shell of the child's brain, and dig out the brain inside, and there is nothing left!"
Although he looked like a strong man, in the end, he actually shuddered, "Well, it's scary to say." Last night, the youngest son of the old nine families of stinky tofu in the east of the city was dug up like this!"
Ding Qin frowned, "The whole family didn't feel it, and the child didn't cry?"
The man's face was even more overshadowed by fear, "There's nothing, no dog barks! This brain-eating demon is said to have come and gone without a trace, and no one knows when he will appear, and he doesn't know who he will attack! Well, as soon as he says it, there is a layer of goosebumps on his body. If you see that tragic situation of your child, you will be afraid!"
"Hey, don't say it, don't say it. One of the people next to him stabbed him in the arm and winked at the same time, "Hurry up and eat, there is still work to be done." Let's go after eating. ”
"Okay, let's go. Immediately the man got down from the donkey, drank two mouthfuls of porridge, put the bowl down, and then got up and went away without saying a word of farewell.
When they arrived at the door, Ding Qin vaguely heard someone say to the person just now, "You talk a lot." Is it necessary to talk to them so much about them? It feels like you know a lot about the Brain Eater. If the Brain Eater finds you at your door, can you afford it?"
Ding Qin shook his head.
From their conversations, it can be judged that this so-called brain-eating demon is indeed a terrifying existence. In such a furnace city, there is such a thing, and the shadow of people's lives can be imagined.
After eating something, Ding Qin instructed Mo Hafei and the others to be vigilant, and then took Song Renqing and others to Mao Nai. Mao Nai was ready to greet him, and after Ding Qin arrived, he warmly beckoned everyone to rest.
After sitting for a while, Ding Qin asked Mao Nai, "Mao Langzhong, I have something I want to know from you. ”
Mao Nai tilted his head slightly, "What you want to ask is about the Brain Eating Demon." ”
Ding Qin nodded, "Exactly." This morning, I just heard that there is a so-called brain-eating demon in the Demon City, but I don't know much about the specific situation. I think you've been involved in all sorts of special medical events in the city, and I wonder if you've been involved in the investigation of this matter?"
"Well, I did get involved. I'm sure no one knows more about this brain-eating demon than I do. I've seen everybody hurt everyone. ”
"Really?" Ding Qin asked casually.
"That's right. Mao Nai reminisced as he said, "It all started fifteen years ago. One night fifteen years ago, one day, the skulls of three ten-year-old children in the city were cut open, and their brains were missing. This is the original origin of the Brain-Eating Demon. Since then, there has been no pattern, and there may be intermittent cases of children being cut off in the city. The most recent case was a year ago, when twins were murdered at the same time. ”
"This brain-eating demon is extremely cruel in his modus operandi. He usually appears at night, and without a sound, he has opened the child's skull and removed the brain. The way the skull is opened is also very special, and it is even said to be exquisite, it is neatly pried open along the bone seam, and it is not badly separated. The brain is extremely clean, and every fracture with the spinal cord is exactly the same location. If it is said that this is not killing, but the slaughter of livestock, it can also be said to be a complete work of art. ”
A kind of fear also appeared on Maona's face, "Of course, I also judged through various signs that this was not a real demon, but a human being. However, this person not only has a way of blinding people's feelings so that they cannot notice that there is an accident in the house, but also has extremely exquisite surgical techniques! Such a person is definitely a terrifying demon!"
