Chapter 7: Nightmares
The doctor who received the doctor looked to be only in his twenties, and he looked very inexperienced, but fortunately, his attitude was very serious and polite, and he carefully looked at Zhang Muzi's face and asked, "Classmate, where is it uncomfortable?"
"I, I ate a lot for dinner, my stomach is sad, but I still feel hungry. Zhang Muzi replied holding his stomach.
"How much did you eat?" the doctor asked again.
"Two Big Mac Chicken Burgers, Two Fried Chickens..."Zhang Muzi reported a lot of food.
"After eating so much, you still feel hungry, it should be an uncontrolled diet, have you taken any hormone drugs lately?" the doctor said professionally, and began to examine Zhang Muzi's abdominal cavity with a stethoscope.
After some tossing, he came to the conclusion that Zhang Muzi's body was normal, except for a little malnutrition, and he was very healthy, "You don't have a physiological disease, it should be atypical bulimia caused by excessive dieting."
I'll prescribe you some medicine to relieve stomach peristalsis, relax your mind, it will be fine soon, you must ensure the supply of nutrients at your current age, weight gain during puberty is a normal thing, don't continue to diet in the future. ”
"Doctor, I've never been on a diet, I, I still weigh two hundred pounds this afternoon, yes, I became thinner because I encountered 'dirty things'" Hearing the doctor's diagnosis was plausible at all, Zhang Muzi hurriedly explained, but halfway through the words, he felt that what he had happened was too unbelievable in the eyes of ordinary people, so he didn't continue.
Sure enough, when the doctor heard his words, he was stunned for a moment, with a suspicious expression on his face, "Classmate, if you take bad 'medicine', it may also have the consequences of uncontrolled eating."
Personally, I don't believe in ghosts and gods, but if you really feel uncomfortable encountering 'dirty things', then you should go to the palace and temple, not the hospital, because the government's medical resources are very precious. He handed over the prescription.
"I, hey, yes, thank you, doctor..."Knowing that the doctor misunderstood himself as a little ** (drug overdose), Zhang Muzi, who couldn't explain it, could only take the prescription and escape from the emergency room.
After taking the medicine and taking twice the dose ordered by the doctor in one go, he left the hospital in a hurry, found a cheap little hotel to live in, and fell headlong into the bed without even washing up, trying in vain to use sleep to resist the increasingly unbearable hunger in his belly.
Zhang Muzi, who had been tossing for several hours, had long since exhausted his energy, lay down on the comfortable soft bed, and soon fell into a state of sleep.
The hunger made him unable to really sleep peacefully, and the tiredness made him not want to move, and in the confusion, a dwarf more than one meter tall, with a slender body, full of fangs, and nails as sharp as beast claws, suddenly appeared in Zhang Muzi's mind.
In the blurred darkness, the dwarf struggled to drag a thing that was two or three times larger than its full, like a corpse, and in the black fog around it, from time to time a small beast suddenly jumped out, moved very quickly to nibble on the prey he was dragging, and then fled quickly.
Seeing this scene, I don't know why an unbearable feeling of anger suddenly rose in Zhang Muzi's heart, his fists clenched, his teeth were clenched, and his mouth scolded sharply: "Damn, damn, damn..."
And as his low roar sounded in the room of the hotel in Yuanbei City, the gray paste like a dead thing in the abandoned mine pit on the outskirts of Tiangong Town, dozens of kilometers away, rolled up again, and several writhing bumps surged up one after another as if the inside was beginning to breed monsters again.
Unlike the first time, this time the bulging shadow did not go through the process of continuous birth and fading, but directly solidified and faded away the mucus on the surface, revealing three small people about one meter tall, with a well-proportioned body, bald heads, and pale yellow skin.
After the birth of these 'little people', they looked left and right in a sluggish manner, and suddenly they all got on all fours, jumped and ran, and rushed side by side in the mine, and after a while, they rushed under the moonlight and sank into the jungle dozens of meters away.
A moment later a terrible cry rang out in the woodland, and after a few minutes four dwarfs with eyes as clear as children dragged a fat donkey carcass out of the woods, and the open belly of the donkey was filled with the remains of small beasts such as weasels and wild beasts.
One step, two steps, three steps... With the combined efforts of the four 'villains', the fruitful prey was soon dragged into the dark mines, where it was corroded by the gray paste that was only one foot square in size, and turned into nutrients.
At the same time, Zhang Muzi, who was hundreds of miles away, felt a warm current running through his stomach, and suddenly felt that it was no longer so difficult, and fell asleep in a daze, and when he woke up, it was already the early morning of the next day.
As soon as I got up, I felt that my stomach was much more comfortable than last night, and Zhang Muzi, who had forgotten last night's dream, felt that the medicine prescribed by the doctor was useful, so he hurriedly took two more tablets, and then washed his face, brushed his teeth, and returned to the room.
Outside, the city is rejuvenating itself when it has just woken up from its slumber.
In the louder and louder noise of cars, Zhang Muzi, who had nothing to do, wandered around the street for a while, bought a few quiches for breakfast and ate them, bored and took out his mobile phone, pulled Lu Wenhao out of the blacklist, and dialed it.
"Zhang Muzi, you are a dead Xiao boy who will take revenge, I kindly borrowed money from you, but you treated me like this and pulled me into the blacklist, do you know how miserable I was yesterday..."
Zhang Muzi felt that his ears were buzzing, and hurriedly snickered and took the phone away, and waited until the scolding was quiet before holding back a smile and said: "Tuba, you misunderstood, I wanted to give you a chance to ** Mazi last night."
Do you think, Yasha's anger yesterday must be her fault, and after the matter is clear, don't you have the upper hand all of a sudden..."
Before he could finish speaking, Lu Wenhao had already interrupted angrily: "You act so similarly, is it so easy to explain things clearly!"
"I left all my change of clothes at your house, and besides, Yasha and I know each other very well, calm down, what is there to say. Zhang Muzi pouted.
"Do you think women will be as rational and reasonable as you say? Lu Wenhao roared loudly: "No matter, you come to me now, go to see Yasha together at noon, she has something to do with you." ”
"I'm really convinced, Yasha doesn't trust you so much, and you have to meet me to believe it. Zhang Muzi did not have the slightest consciousness of being a 'bad friend', and complained disdainfully.
"No, she has other things to do with you. Lu Wenhao hesitated for a moment and said truthfully.
"Will she have something to do with me?" Zhang Muzi said puzzled.
"Aren't you, didn't you meet a 'good brother' and lost dozens of pounds at once, Yasha she, she also wants to meet. Lu Wenhao replied with a sigh.
The so-called 'good brother' means the same as 'dirty things', and it is also a synonym for ghosts and monsters in Yuantai folk, hearing this, Zhang Muzi couldn't understand the meaning for a while, and blurted out: "See, see whom?"
"It's you, the 'thing' you came across last night. Lu Wenhao said with a sigh of relief.
As a man, Zhang Muzi didn't understand how determined women could be in order to become beautiful and thin, and they didn't know the allusions they left behind about rubbing their faces with highly toxic lead powder and being willing to swallow live insects to thin to death, so he was stunned for a moment and said in a lost voice: "Are you kidding, Yasha is going to 'hit ghosts' in order to lose weight?"
"How much better do you think it's better to peel off your cheekbones and put a tube on your body to suck fat than to hit a ghost?
Girls can't do anything to be beautiful, anyway, you will come to the shop where you work to find me later, and we will go to the 'dance room' to meet Yasha at noon.
By the way, I heard that Miri's economic company has officially signed a contract with Yasha and her dance studio, so maybe you can meet Miri again. Lu Wenhao was half-tough, and said his request in one breath.
"I won't go to see Kim Taeyeon for this kind of thing, Han Yasha is crazy, are you going crazy too, tuba, that's a demon, it's a devil who chases me all the fart!
I didn't even feel it at all before I was close to it last night, and I didn't dare to ask for a 'please drive'.
I have opened a palace temple at home, I haven't heard of any strange things, do you know which kind of ghost is the most terrifying, it is this type that is not terrible at all..."Zhang Muzi shouted angrily.
Lu Wenhao was silent for a while, knowing that he couldn't distinguish his dead friend, so he interrupted him, "I didn't say that I had to bump into that ghost, I just went around, and the chance of really meeting him was probably not even one in 10,000." ”
"Don't say 1 in 10,000, even if it is 1 in 100,000, if it really wants to fall on you, it is 100 percent, and the chance of 1 in 10 million of the Mark Six lottery jackpot is still one in 10 million every month," Zhang Muzi said urgently: "Besides, this kind of ghost and god thing is the most evil."
If you take the initiative to find it like this, it will be waiting for you!"
After hearing this, Lu Wenhao was silent for a while, sighed and said, "Fat Mu, what you said is right, but I promised her last night in order to coax Yasha, so I must do it."
If you really don't want to go, just don't mention anything. He hung up.
"Tuba, tuba, hey, hey, Lu Wenhao, I'm XX, you're XX, and you actually hung up on me. Zhang Muzi roared angrily on the street, and then called his friend's phone and found that he could not get through.
"Okay, okay, pull me to the blacklist, I'll kill you, just as soon as you get to the scrap mine, you will meet a ghost, all of a sudden, just..." He lowered his head.
After standing for a while, Zhang Muzi sighed, walked listlessly to the bus stop, took the car to Yuantai Old Street, found an old grocery store, bought a special yellow table paper with a knife of drawing symbols, a box of excellent cinnabar, and a few beans melted with mercury and lead, and then took these things on the bus again and came to the fast food restaurant where Lu Wenhao worked.
