Chapter 23 There is no way back
The house was really big, and the original estimate of fifty pounds a year seemed to be low.
Behind the courtyard was a long, narrow, dark corridor, and on the wall of the corridor was a gas lamp wrapped with black wire but not lit.
On both sides, there are rooms with doors open or closed.
Zhang Huaisheng had left the first room on the left hand side before, and the layout of each house seemed to be similar.
Eerie, dark, with no sunlight in sight, and it seemed that there were no windows.
Wouldn't living in this kind of place all year round produce some mental illness?
"Tsk, what right do I have as a schizophrenic to worry about others?"
The corridor was dark, but Zhang Huaisheng still walked quickly, not worrying about what he would bump into.
Not long ago, after meeting Teresa, his role as a "twin" has been significantly enhanced, and the "spirituality" contained in his body has transformed his body almost all the time.
This caused his five senses to improve compared to before.
But when he thought of the butcher he had just seen, the madness that he no longer knew whether it was a man or a beast, made him secretly worry about whether this was a good thing.
Zhang Huaisheng's footsteps suddenly stopped, and he felt that the upper of his shoe was wet.
When he looked down, he saw that blood was dripping from Killian's mouth and nose, but he gritted his teeth and didn't say a word.
That's right, if I was so bumped, even if it wasn't a particularly serious injury, it would be turned out of the way, and it would be put aside for a lifetime, which is called a secondary injury.
In particular, the blow that Killian was hit by was obviously internal.
"Can it hold on?"
Killian almost squeezed four words out between his teeth: "Go on, don't stop!" ”
This terrible line.
Zhang Huaisheng took a deep breath and ran wildly carrying at least one hundred and fifty pounds of Kirian, but his steps were obviously much lighter than before.
Running all the way to the end of the hallway, I pushed open two heavy doors that were half-closed, and I saw a huge hall that looked like a church.
Inside the church, more than a dozen nuns were waiting uneasily.
Seeing the two rushing in, several nuns hurriedly caught up and helped Zhang Huaisheng put Killian down.
"Jinyu, how is my uncle?"
As soon as he opened his mouth, Zhang Huaisheng recognized this person as Teresa.
"The injury is not light, and I don't know how many bones have been broken, is there a doctor? Or if you know a little bit about medicine, come and help him. ”
It is worth mentioning that Teresa's group of nuns is really weak, and it is very difficult for the three of them to carry Killian together.
Compared with Zhang Huaisheng, who carried him and ran hundreds of meters wildly, he was more than a star and a half worse - could it be that the "twins" were actually biased towards melee recklessness?
One of the nuns raised her hand: "I used to study at the Nightingale School of Nursing - he needs to recuperate now, there are pills for internal bleeding in the infirmary, I'll go get them." ”
Killian leaned against a high platform that looked at the layout, where a statue of a god should have been placed, but for some reason it was empty, making it appear empty.
His nose twitched, and he took a few sharp breaths, and found that he didn't smell anything strange, so he let out a long breath.
Zhang Huaisheng knew that he was worried that the plague would spread, but relying on his sense of smell, he could not tell if there were disease-causing bacteria or viruses.
The horror of the plague shaman has also been passed down for a long time among the Gaelic rebels.
To be precise, in this era when medical skills are still relatively ignorant, plague is still an existence that can make people talk about tigers.
The Black Death in the distance, smallpox is not mentioned, and there are cholera in Tianzhu and the plague in Donghua, and it is very common for tens of thousands of people to die in every major epidemic.
"I'm fine, I can't die yet."
"The one just now was... The Plague Priest? ”
Killian let out a "hmm" and glanced at Teresa with some uneasiness: "That is Teresa's teacher, and the way I told you to play it came from her mouth." ”
"It's Mama Alice!"
"How's Mama? And Jennifer, why haven't they come back yet? ”
The nuns gathered around in a gossiping voice, their voices filled with nervousness and unease.
In the hallway, there was a sudden loud noise.
Then came the roar of rage, and the cracking of the walls, which was so loud that it looked like a mad prehistoric beast fighting.
Under the frightened eyes of the nuns, Zhang Huaisheng sorted out his words and said:
"Sadly, Sister Jennifer has passed away. The enemy attacking the order is very strong, and what you call Mama Alice has chosen to stay behind the temple. ”
Without waiting for the nuns to speak, Zhang Huaisheng immediately spoke: "What Mama Alice means is that let me protect you from evacuation and don't be rash." ”
The atmosphere became dreary.
Against the backdrop of the occasional distant sound of shells, only one or two whispered sobs rang out occasionally.
Zhang Huaisheng got up and quickly checked the wall at the back of the "church".
No way?
Zhang Huaisheng frowned: "Isn't there a back door for evacuation here?" ”
Generally, this kind of house will open a door at the front and back when it is laid out, because it is too big, and this is also done to facilitate travel.
Teresa gestured to a large window at the top of the wall behind the pedestal.
"No, you can only go through the window, the rest of the small rooms have no windows, the order is a very closed place."
Zhang Huaisheng looked at the windows that were more than two meters above the ground, side by side, with a green background, painted with various occult patterns, and then looked at the group of thin nuns in front of him, a little dumbfounded.
How do they get up?
"How many more Sequence 8s are there in the Order?"
"Originally, there were many, but now, only Mama Alice is here."
"Then there is no way, break the windows and everyone leave immediately."
"How many enemies are there, and can't Mama Alice deal with them?"
Speaking of "them", the nun was visibly gnashing her teeth.
"No, there's only one. But it's powerful, and your power has little effect on it, only to make it stronger. ”
Sequence 9 of the calamity path is hungry, which is effective against a group of enemies, if it is against the giant, although it will be more or less effective, but before it is hungry and crazy, it is estimated that it will eat all the people present, one by one.
After this period of bad compensation, Zhang Huaisheng is no longer the budding of the transcendent world.
Of course, it may be slightly worse than those who come out of the great transcendent forces, but it is only slightly worse.
"Don't be stunned, everyone is ready to evacuate immediately."
Zhang Huaisheng quickly moved the tables and chairs piled up on both sides, moved them under the window, and then lifted a long table placed next to him and smashed it into the glass window.
He didn't know if he had any strength to that extent, but his instincts told him he could give it a try.
Sure enough, this time he directly threw the table three meters away, and smashed a big hole in the stained glass that was connected together.
Teresa was surprised: "Jinyu, are you a butcher or a rock?" ”
Zhang Huaisheng didn't know how to explain, so he had to say, "It's neither." ”
At this time, not far from the hallway.
The sound of heavy footsteps, and the sound of heavy breathing like a beast, was already getting closer and closer under his attentive and sensitive hearing.
He subconsciously wanted to leave first, and the two-meter-high wall he could cross without stepping on the table.
But when he looked at the young faces who were sobbing in a low voice and subconsciously regarded him as the backbone, he remembered the entrustment of "Mama Alice" just now.
Finally, I made up my mind.
In the back of his mind, the deputy was desperately shouting, "Do you want to run?" Do you want to run? ”
"No, the others can leave it alone, but you must protect Teresa no matter what, do it with her, like a hero!"
"Are you going to be a coward for the rest of your life, or a hero for even a minute?"
"Shut up!"
Zhang Huaisheng never tires of it.
The purpose of the deputy personality desperately beating him with chicken blood is obvious.
But Zhang Huaisheng didn't plan to back down.
I'm not like the original owner, I'm not here to protect Teresa, it's just that the basic morality of being a human being can't sit back and watch these young girls die tragically at the hands of that kind of monster.
Zhang Huaisheng first took a hand and helped the group of emaciated girls carry Killian up and transport him out through the hole in the window.
Before parting, Killian grabbed Zhang Huaisheng's arm vigorously, and although he didn't speak, Zhang Huaisheng immediately understood what he wanted to say.
"Rest assured, I'm here."
Only God knows how determined Zhang Huaisheng, who has pursued the idea of self-preservation since he crossed over, can say such words.
He jumped off the table and turned to leave.
"Jinyu, why are you going?"
Teresa looked at Zhang Huaisheng, who was walking against the crowd and towards the corridor, and said in surprise.
"Take them and go as far as possible."
Zhang Huaisheng's footsteps paused, just said this, and then disappeared into the dark and deep corridor.
"So handsome!"
"If you wear a sword, then you can kill one person in ten steps, and you will not leave a thousand miles of chivalrous manners, but you also have to change your clothes, and you are not kempt."
"I really didn't expect that a person like you, who is greedy for life and afraid of death, has such a heroic side."
The deputy said from the heart.
Listening to his ridicule, Zhang Huaisheng was not angry.
Instead, with a stiff smile on his face, he opened the magazine and filled it with bullets one by one.
"Actually, I felt angry when I saw it treat a girl like that, but at the time, I felt more fear than anger.
I'm afraid I'll be eaten by that monster and bite off half of my body.
It must have hurt.
It's just that when I got better, the more I thought about it, the more angry I became.
The so-called transcendent like that anti-human should die cleanly, instead of continuing to linger in this world and do evil as a 'human'. ”
"Well said, be a big white!"
"Now, even if I'm dead, in Teresa's eyes, I'm a hero, right?"
I don't know if it's an illusion, Zhang Huaisheng actually heard a hint of happiness from the tone of the deputy personality.
He said helplessly: "I really didn't save you!" ”
