001, the strange world

Next Chapter

It's dark, it's chaotic, and there's no light of day.

The murmuring of unknown meaning echoed endlessly in the darkness, and Lu Zheng's consciousness was groggy, drifting alone in the dark deep sea where there was no light.

I don't know how long it took, but in this dark chaos that seemed to have no concept of time, a faint voice floated in:

"Brother Lu, Brother Lu ......!"

“...... Mother-in-law, save him!"

"He lost so much blood that his pulse was almost gone, and I am afraid that he will not be able to save him. ”

Who's talking?

I...... Are you dead?

The vague voice seemed to come from another world, causing Lu Zheng's chaotic and obscurantist consciousness to ripple.

"How can this be ......"

"Alas, his injuries are too serious, and I can't do anything about my wife......"

"It's all my fault, it's all because of me...... If it weren't for saving me, Brother Lu wouldn't have ...... like this."

Whether anxious, sad, or helpless, the voice became clearer and clearer like throwing stones on the calm lake, Lu Zheng's eyelids trembled slightly, and he gradually felt the existence of his body.

"Wait......"

"Mother-in-law, look!"

A cry of surprise followed in his ears, and Lu Zheng also plucked up all his strength and opened his eyes little by little.

The dim light in sight, the dim light reflected the thatched roof, the broken doors and windows, and the cold and hard bed, this was a dark and dilapidated house, and the furnishings could not be more shabby.

And beside the bed, there was a black-clothed young man with red eyes, a short old woman, and two strangely dressed people were looking at him with surprise or amazement:

"Lu boy, are you awake?"

"Great, Brother Lu, God bless!"

Lu Zheng couldn't help but be stunned.

What's the situation?

Although the light was dim and dim, there was no electricity, no modern objects, a very simple room, and two strangely dressed people in front of the bed, all of which made him look confused when he had just regained some consciousness.

God is pitiful, he can clearly remember that in the previous lucid memory, as a game company Gou planner, he was still working overtime late at night to test his new game, during which he only took a slight nap, how could he suddenly come to this strange place inexplicably?

What the is going on?

Don't...... Did I cross over?

Lu Zheng, a social animal who had long been fed up with 997 blessings, suddenly felt a little excitement and expectation in his heart, and almost subconsciously wanted to get up and sit up.

Hiss!

However, as soon as his body moved, a sharp pain that hit his soul came from his chest and abdomen, causing his face to contort into a ball at once.

"Be careful!"

In the room, seeing Lu Zheng wake up and turn around, the old woman and the young man in the room stepped forward one after another, and the young man was the most excited:

"Brother Lu, your wound has just been stitched up, you can't move!"

Brother Lu, are you calling me?

At this moment, lying on the bed, Lu Zheng was covered in cold sweat, and his whole person was surrounded by intense pain and weakness.

Only then did he realize that his chest and abdomen were wrapped in a thick white cloth, and there were large patches of scarlet blood oozing out on it, as if he had suffered some extremely serious injury.

This body doesn't seem to be my original ......

But both of these people know me...... Am I soul-pierced?

Lu Zheng, who is familiar with the classics of online literature, just subconsciously flashed a thought, and suddenly there was a frenzy of strange memories in his mind, surging over the river and the sea, and he was not given a chance to react at all.

It was a fragment of the memory of another person named Lu Ping, like a dream bubble, constantly flashing back and disappearing.

This is the Bailong Mountain Walled City, located in the bitter cold land of the western Xinjiang of the new country. The original owner, Lu Ping, aged twenty-three, grew up here since he was a child, and is now a member of the night patrol team of the walled city, responsible for night patrol and guarding the safety of the walled city.

His mother died young, and his father, an ordinary farmer in the walled city, died of typhoid tuberculosis two years ago...... Remembering this, Lu Zheng was immediately grateful.

As we all know, the death of both parents is the standard configuration of the traverser, and he doesn't need to pinch his thighs with this.

Immediately after, he turned his gaze to the old woman and the boy in front of the bed.

The young man with a nervous and concerned face is named Xu Yong, who joined the night patrol team as soon as he became an adult this year, and has a good relationship with the original owner;

But why am I so badly injured?

What happened to the original owner before?

The pain and weakness all over his body were incomparably revealed, and in order to figure out what kind of situation he was currently in, Lu Zheng urgently searched for it in the turbulent and chaotic memory fragments.

Hiss!

However, this thought seemed to have the opposite effect, and the countless shards of memory were even more chaotic, making his already overwhelmed brain feel like it was about to explode. Under the strong stimulation, he subconsciously raised his only movable hand and covered his forehead.

And the next moment, Lu Zheng's movements couldn't help but stiffen.

Because when his right hand covered his forehead, his palm suddenly touched the center of his eyebrows, and a closed blood mouth three or four centimeters long was born.

What's even more terrifying is that under the closed crack, there is a strange sphere that is beating slightly, and it seems that a third eye has grown on his eyebrows!

"What the hell!?"

When he touched something that seemed to be the third eye in the center of his eyebrows, Lu Zheng's heartbeat seemed to stop for a moment, and he blurted out.

No normal human being is indifferent to the growth of a third eye, except for some secondary two teenagers, which is the normal reaction of the vast majority of people.

Especially at this moment, his palm clearly felt that although the third eye in the center of the eyebrow was still closed, the part of the eyeball was beating slightly without his control, as if it was an independent life form!

"Lu boy, don't you remember?"

In front of the bed, the gray-haired old woman's eyes fell on Lu Zheng's face, as if she was still surprised why he could wake up:

"Last night, some of the villagers were possessed by evil spirits and suddenly went crazy, and your night patrol fought against them, and suffered heavy casualties. Although you were rescued, your wounds were contaminated with evil blood, so ......"

Xu Yong, a young man on the side, lowered his head and said in a somewhat choked tone:

"I'm sorry Brother Lu, if it weren't for saving me, you wouldn't have been so seriously injured, let alone polluted by evil, blame me for being useless......"

Evil possession, pollution?

In this world, there are ghosts?

What's the deal with being polluted...... Is this a special conversation + Resident Evil?

The meaning behind the few words made people shudder, Lu Zheng, who was covering his forehead, his face changed, his back was cold, and his thoughts were surging fiercely.

He subconsciously wanted to question, but then he thought that since even incredible things like crossing over and borrowing corpses to return the soul had happened to him, what could be the possibility of having demons and monsters in this world?

It's a pity that when he just opened his eyes, he thought that he had traveled to ancient China, and he had even begun to think about which poems to copy to pretend to be forced, but now it seems that his ideas are too taken for granted.

"Brother Lu, Brother Lu?"

On the side of the bed, seeing Lu Zheng's strange reaction, Xu Yong felt even more guilty and worried, and said with red eyes:

"How are you feeling right now?"

It feels terrible!

Lu Zheng's mind was shocked by the messy memory fragments at the moment, and he could only reluctantly respond: "My brain is very messy......"

Xu Yong seemed to want to say something, but the medicine woman next to him stepped forward to stop him:

"Okay Xiaoyong, although he has woken up, he is not out of danger, let him recuperate first, and then talk about what he has to say. ”

She looked at Lu Zheng on the bed and admonished:

"Lu boy, you have lost too much blood and your injuries are too serious, it is already a great luck to be able to come back from before the ghost gate is closed, don't think about other things first. Later, I'll ask Xiao Yong to bring you the blood soup. Drink the pills and survive tonight, and you'll be fine, understand?"

Now Lu Zheng's memory is in chaos, and he wishes that the two of them would leave quickly so as not to reveal any flaws in themselves. He endured the schizophrenic sting and nodded weakly:

"Good ......"

The medicine woman nodded, didn't say much, and immediately waved her hand to drive the reluctant Xu Yong out of the room.

The room fell silent, leaving Lu Zheng alone with his eyes closed, enduring the pain and weakness, trying to calm the chaotic memories that surged in his mind.

I don't know how long it took, but he finally roughly absorbed the memories left by the original owner, and he slowly opened his eyes, his face was already pale and weak, as if he had just fought a battle with ten red card technicians.

The memory of the original owner, Lu Ping, is like broken glass, not only losing its coherence, but also missing most of it, Lu Zheng actually did not find the memory of last night.

However, in other clips, he also found a lot of creepy information.

Two months ago, a husband Li San went crazy in the middle of the night, and the roar alarmed the neighbors, and when everyone broke down the door, they found that the husband Li San had died inexplicably in his home, and the cause of death was ...... He choked himself by the throat and strangled himself.

Half a year ago, a farmer Niu Li went crazy in his sleep and became a green-faced and fanged demon, who broke into the next door neighbor's house, bitten and devoured a family of three alive, and was finally killed by the night patrol team who rushed to die.

In the middle of winter last year, a butcher Wang Leopard went crazy in his sleep. That night, his wife and children were all dismembered and skinned by Wang Leopard, and when others noticed the abnormality, Wang Leopard had even peeled off his own skin, but he still moved freely, and the night patrol team killed and injured several people before killing the unrecognizable Wang Leopard.

A year ago, two years, three years ago...... This Bailong Mountain Walled City is not large, and it is only the size of more than 10,000 people, but such a terrifying incident of normal people suddenly going crazy and turning into monsters in their sleep will happen several times a year!

"Sleeping makes people go crazy and turn into monsters, this is called evil possession......"

Memories were flooding in his mind, and the light of the oil lamp reflected Lu Zheng's face was a little blue.

"It's like the world of horror movies......"

Some of these memories were personally experienced by the original owner, and some were just heard, and each one revealed an indescribable evil, which made people shudder. Lu Zheng's first thought was, if he encountered such a terrifying thing, how would he survive?

Before the crossing, although he was an out-and-out 997 social animal, he lived in a peaceful and prosperous world. His expectation for crossing is to relive the past, punch the strongman and kick the second horse, or not to mention all the savings stud bitcoins, and go directly to the peak of life in a few years;

No matter how bad it is, it is easy and happy to wear back to ancient times to copy poems and pretend to be forced, engage in inventions, and have three wives and four concubines.

But now, this precarious world, revealing weirdness and grotesqueness from the inside out, has completely shattered his beautiful fantasy of crossing this matter, and only anxiety and fear remain.

"It's a serious injury again, it's a mutation again, and it's a snakeskin to play with such a sloppy start......?

After being silent for a moment, Lu Zheng's face was cloudy, and he suddenly said tentatively in his heart:

"Deep blue?"

No response.

"System?" Lu Zheng's voice was a little eager.

Silence.

There is no navy and no system.

Lu Zheng's heart suddenly cooled.

This corpse's physical condition is so bad that even if he is lying motionless on the bed, he can always feel the severity of the injury and the weakness of his body. And the world here is still so weird and dangerous, there is not even a golden finger, this is still a fart?

Especially judging from the backward medical conditions of this feudal era, if there is no panacea, once the wounds on his body become inflamed or infected, it is almost equivalent to a dead end!

Lu Zheng sweated on his forehead, only feeling that his future was uncertain, and huge anxiety and crisis appeared in his heart.

Rustle.

Just when he was disillusioned and thinking about whether he should try to delete the number and start over, a sound of footsteps floated in.

With a squeak, the hidden wooden door was pushed open, and Xu Yong, who had followed the medicine woman before, cautiously walked in with a steaming medicine bowl.

"Brother Lu, are you still awake?"

Finding Lu Zheng lying on the bed with his eyes open, Xu Yong put the bowl on the table, and then came to the bed and whispered:

"Mother-in-law has fried the blood soup, I'll help you get up and drink the medicine." ”

Lu Zheng, who didn't find the golden finger and felt loveless, glanced at him, his mouth moved, and he nodded weakly.

The desire to survive is the instinct of all life, and he just thought about whether to commit suicide at all, and try to see if it is possible to change the number and even return to Earth.

But he thought about it, what if he really burped completely?

The desire to survive is the instinct of all life, and no matter how difficult the world is, it is still the life of a dog.

Helpless in his heart, Lu Zheng cooperated with Xu Yong to hold up his upper body a little bit, and half leaned on the head of the bed.

Then I saw Xu Yong bring the medicine bowl over, then gently blew the hot air, brought it to his mouth, and carefully comforted:

"Brother Lu, this blood-nourishing soup nourishes qi and nourishes blood, and the medicinal properties are mild. Drink the medicine and you'll be well in no time. ”

"I'll do it myself. ”

The decoction exuded a rich and pungent herbal taste, and Lu Zheng was not in the mood to speak, but raised his hand with considerable difficulty and caught the bowl.

However, just as he was about to drink the medicine, in his sight, above the steaming medicine bowl in front of him, a peculiar and mysterious yin and yang gossip graphic panel suddenly appeared, and a line of small words was marked in the center of the panel:

【Blood Soup】

Quality: Normal (White)

Efficacy: The medicine taken internally has a certain effect of nourishing qi and replenishing blood

Underneath the panel, there is an ostentatious energy gauge and two large options.

【Enhancement/Recycling】

Lu Zheng blinked violently, and his heartbeat accelerated suddenly.

Because this panel is somewhat familiar to him, it looks a lot like the enhanced function panel of the game he tested himself before crossing over!
