Volume 1 The Fox Demon Weeping Grave Chapter 77: The Hidden Grid Mechanism

Those white bugs, two or three entangled, kept tumbling.

"Ahh Song Wanying's whole face turned pale and shouted, "This ...... What kind of thing is this, how can there be such a thing under the bed. ”

Xu Ye's face was also a little ugly at the moment, and after subconsciously taking two steps back, he looked at the dense insects in front of him and said, "That smell is emanating from these things, it is very likely to be poisonous, let's be careful and withdraw first." ”

After hearing Xu Ye's words, Song Wanying naturally couldn't ask for it, and immediately walked towards the door.

After exiting from Ward No. 1, Xu Ye didn't stay long, and after recovering a little, he immediately walked towards Ward No. 2.

The door to Ward 2 was also badly damaged, and when the door was opened, a strong musty smell greeted you.

It stands to reason that if there were always people living in this place, there would never be such a serious musty smell, but in the room full of traces of life in front of him, there was such a heavy musty smell, which made Xu Ye very puzzled.

And there is a big difference between Ward 2 and Ward 1, that is, Ward 2 is smaller than Ward 1, and it is not a little smaller, but much smaller.

The ear number ward is almost half the size of Ward 1.

Xu Ye seriously doubted that the middle-aged woman before had misremembered.

Because if Ward 1 is a small child, why is the space larger than Ward 2?

Looking at the various things in this room, Song Wanying suddenly spoke: "Living in such a narrow space every day, even a normal person will slowly become abnormal, this kind of ward is seriously not in accordance with the regulations." ”

After hearing Song Wanying's words, Xu Ye said, "There are even more non-compliant ones." ”

Xu Ye said, and ripped off a piece of red cloth in the corner of the wall.

Behind the red cloth is a huge dark grid, which is inlaid with four iron rings, distributed on the four corners of the dark grid.

"What is this?" Song Wanying looked at the dark grid in front of her and didn't understand it very well.

Xu Ye didn't speak, walked directly into the dark grid in front of him, and stretched out his hand to pose a big word.

Just enough, his hands and feet could touch the hoops at the corners of the dark grid.

"This ......" Song Wanying said in disbelief, "You mean, the patients in this room are fixed here every day?" ”

"I don't know." Xu Ye walked out of the dark grid and said: "I can only judge the role of this dark grid, but it's not easy to say what it is used for." ”

"But ......" Just when Song Wanying was about to speak, Xu Ye suddenly made a silent gesture to her.

Because the broken pen in Xu Ye's pocket suddenly made a trembling sound, and as the broken pen trembled, Xu Ye also heard it clearly.

From the corridor outside, there was a sound of "tapping" footsteps, and a man's coughing.

"Anyone?" Song Wanying lowered her voice and looked at Xu Ye and asked.

"It sounds like it is." Xu Ye nodded and said, "Let's go, be careful, let's go out and have a look." ”

As he spoke, Xu Ye took out the pig-killing knife at his waist and walked out of the corridor outside.

But when he and Song Wanying cautiously came to the corridor, they didn't see anything.

"What about people?"

Just when Xu Ye was wondering, he suddenly saw a black figure walking into ward No. 4 out of the corner of his eye.

"Where!" Song Wanying also saw that figure, and immediately stretched out her hand to point at Xu Ye.

"Let's go, go to Ward Four." As Xu Ye spoke, he and Song Wanying quickly walked towards Ward No. 4.

When he came to the door of ward No. 4, Xu Ye did not push the door directly in, but reached out and knocked on it.

Because he wondered if it was the doctor on duty at the hospital, or the security guard or something.

But after the knock on the door for a long time, there was no reaction inside, and when he saw this, he stretched out his hand and pushed towards the door.

Like Ward 1 and Ward 2, the door was directly pushed open by Xu Ye without a lock.

After pushing the door open, Xu Ye first walked in tentatively alone, and after no accident happened, Xu Ye motioned for Song Wanying to follow in.

This room is much more normal than wards 1 and 2.

There is no strange smell and musty smell, but a faint smell of sweat.

Looks like it's supposed to be a man living inside.

In addition, the room layout is also relatively normal, not big or small, if you live alone, it is just right.

The room has a single bed with a double sofa and coffee table next to the bed.

On the coffee table are a plate of peanuts and half a stack of pork head, as well as two white porcelain bowls.

"Looks like there must have been someone in this room just now, and after hearing our voices, they came out to check it out." Xu Ye guessed.

"Looks like it should be, but if he's from the hospital, why should he avoid us?" Song Wanying was a little puzzled.

"Maybe he's not from the hospital, just like us." As Xu Ye spoke, the corner of his eye glanced at the corner of the wall on the other side of the single bed.

Because there's also a strip of red cloth there.

After Xu Ye walked over and reached out and tore off the red cloth, he saw a dark grid that was exactly the same as the one he had seen in Ward 2 before.

There are also four rings in the dark compartment, which are distributed over the four corners.

"How can there be one here?" Song Wanying was surprised.

Xu Ye didn't answer Song Wanying's words, but looked at the dark grid in front of him and fell into deep thought.

After thinking for a long time, Xu Ye looked at the two white porcelain bowls on the coffee table.

Xu Ye walked over and stretched out his hand to touch the two porcelain bowls respectively and said, "It's hot, it seems that he concluded that we couldn't find him, and wanted to wait for us to leave and come back to continue eating." ”

Xu Ye said as he spoke, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he smiled: "I know what the iron rings of these four corners are for." ”

"Huh?" Song Wanying was puzzled: "What is it for?" ”

"If you take a closer look, is there anything different about this and the one in room two?" Xu Ye said to Song Wanying.

After hearing Xu Ye's words, Song Wanying carefully looked at the dark grid in front of her and the iron ring in the dark grid.

After carefully looking up and down for a long time, Song Wanying excitedly pointed to the iron ring in the upper left corner of the dark compartment and said: "I remember that the iron ring in the second ward is lower in the lower right corner than the lower left corner, and this one is higher in the upper left corner than the upper right corner." ”

"That's right." Xu Ye nodded and said, "If I'm not mistaken, this should be a mechanism device, connected to at least four wards, and after activating this mechanism, you can go directly to any room where this mechanism is installed." ”

"So, how do you start this?" Song Wanying's curiosity was somewhat aroused.

"The secret lies in this hoop." Xu Yedao.

"Iron hoop?" After hearing Xu Ye's words, Song Wanying walked over and tried to pull the four iron rings.

Seeing this, Xu Ye immediately stopped: "Don't act rashly, let's go to other wards first, if other wards also have the same device, it will prove that my guess is correct." ”

Song Wanying nodded, followed Xu Ye out of the fourth ward, and walked towards the third ward next to her.

Unsurprisingly, the door of Ward 3 was easily pushed open by Xu Ye.

When Ward 3 was opened, there was not a musty smell or a foul smell from the pavement, but a strong smell of blood.

A single bed leaning against the corner was covered with bloodstains, Xu Ye quickly walked into the No. 3 ward, walked to the single bed and took a closer look.

There were also obvious blood stains on the fence next to the hospital bed, as if someone had desperately clung to the fence to block something, but ultimately failed.

"Aren't all the patients here leaving voluntarily?" Xu Ye speculated to himself.

Just when Xu Ye looked at the blood stains on the white sheets in front of him and guessed what was going on here, Song Wanying on the side suddenly said, "There are two bottles of medicine here, which are for the treatment of mania." ”

Song Wanying poured out all the white pills in the medicine bottle, pointed to the medicine on the table and shouted to Xu Ye.

"It seems that before we came, there were indeed people living here, and there was more than one, but why should they avoid us?" Xu Yedao.

"Is it because we have been to Wujia Village?" Song Wanying guessed.

Xu Ye nodded, and at the same time, he was even more convinced that this place must have a precise connection with Wujia Village.

After retracting his gaze from the single bed, Xu Ye searched carefully around again, and in this ward, he did not see the same dark compartment as in the second and fourth wards before.

This made Xu Ye a little disappointed, could it be that his conjecture was really wrong.

But although he didn't find the dark grid, Xu Ye found another important clue, that is, bloodstains.

The less obvious blood stains on the ground extended all the way to the location of the door, and walked out of the door.

Xu Ye carefully shone the ground with a flashlight, and followed the less obvious blood stains, all the way to the corridor and extended all the way to Ward 5.

Following those bloodstains all the way to the door of ward No. 5, Xu Ye didn't hesitate too much, and directly pushed open the ward in front of him.

The furnishings inside are still very simple, almost not much different from the previous four wards.

Moreover, in this ward, Xu Ye and Song Wanying searched carefully and found no useful clues.

It's just that the bloodstain did disappear at the door of this ward, if he hadn't entered here, where else could he go, he couldn't have disappeared out of thin air.

Just when Xu Yezheng was thinking about whether there was any secret passage nearby, his pupils suddenly retracted, and he said in surprise: "When did the ward door close?" Didn't I say you have to remember to leave the door open? ”

"I didn't close it, it wasn't blown by the wind." Song Wanying said a little nervously.

"No, there's no wind here." Xu Ye said and immediately walked towards the door, pushing and pulling the iron door in front of him.
