Chapter 5 Body: Alcohol
"PoofPound Pound"
The door opened, and a middle-aged woman appeared inside the door, looking at a person with an umbrella wrapped in thick clothes, and kept on high alert.
"Who are you?"
"Auntie, it's me, Meng Hao, is Uncle Fa there?"
"Xiao Hao, it's you, why are you dressed like this on a hot day?" The person in front of him was Uncle Defa's daughter-in-law, who remembered Meng Hao when he drank that day and heard his voice.
"I have an urgent matter, and I ask my aunt and uncle for help. β
"Let's talk about it first. β
"Uncle, do you have realgar wine and Jiangmi at home?" Meng Hao said straight to the point after seeing Uncle Defa.
"Yes, didn't I say Xiao Hao, why do you look like this?" Uncle Defa looked at Meng Hao with an incomprehensible expression.
"Uncle, don't ask, can you give me realgar wine and Jiang rice first, I remember that you still have a few roosters at home, right, can you kill one for me." Meng Hao said.
"Hey, you're here to find food, I'll make it for you. The aunt on the side heard what Meng Hao wanted, thinking that she was going to drink with Defa again, and said directly.
"No, auntie, I have an urgent need, let's talk about it later. β
"Xiao Hao, what's wrong with you, you want wine and chicken blood, and you're still dressed like this, a magic barrier. Uncle Defa asked with some concern.
"Uncle, do you believe me when I said that I was poisoned by the corpse?" Meng Hao said, and then took off the thick clothes on his body.
Uncle Defa was startled when he saw Meng Hao's miserable appearance, but he quickly reacted and instructed his daughter-in-law, who was also frightened, and said, "Daughter-in-law, go and dig out the old wine that was brought from Yuanshan's house, Xiao Hao uses it." β
"I'll go. When the aunt heard Uncle Defa's words, her eyes shrank, and she glanced at Meng Hao again, and walked out of the courtyard without speaking.
"Uncle, what are you?" Meng Hao didn't understand what Uncle Defa was going to do.
"Xiao Hao, do you want to use these things to make autopsy wine?" Uncle Defa asked in a deep voice.
"Uncle, how do you know?" Meng Hao said in astonishment.
"Hey, I was like you when I was a kid, and it was your grandmother who saved me. Uncle Defa sighed and said.
"Ah!!h
Soon, the aunt came over with a jar of wine stained with mud, lifted the seal that had been sealed for a long time, and a rich aroma of wine immediately spread in the house, and Uncle Defa poured a bowl and handed it to Meng Hao.
"Xiao Hao, let me tell you first, let you have a mental preparation, this corpse wine was brewed by your grandmother back then, specially used to drive away evil spirits and turn poisons, this bowl of belly, it will be very painful, you have to endure it." Uncle Defa reminded, and then brought a towel to prepare.
"I see. Meng Hao did not hesitate, and directly drank the sake in the bowl in one gulp, and at this time, Uncle Defa guessed the towel in his hand into Meng Hao's mouth, so as to avoid Meng Hao biting himself and relatively alleviate the pain.
As soon as he entered his mouth, a spicy sensation hit, and the taste that slowly melted became very mellow, and as soon as the wine slid down Meng Hao's throat, Meng Hao felt that a fire began to burn in his body, and it became more and more vigorous, Meng Hao fell directly to the ground and rolled in pain.
"What's the matter?" The aunt on the side was startled when she saw Meng Hao's appearance.
"Come up and help. Uncle Defa directly pressed on Meng Hao's body and restrained Meng Hao's hands, and said to his daughter-in-law at the same time.
"Good. When the aunt heard this, she hurriedly ran over to restrain Meng Hao's constantly kicking legs.
Meng Hao tossed on the ground for more than ten minutes, and finally slowly stopped, lying on the ground panting, covered in sweat, but his pale skin had regained a healthy wheat yellow.
"Okay, he's fine, you go cook a pot of Jiangmi soup, Xiao Hao will drink it in a while." Uncle Defa got down from Meng Hao, took the towel from Meng Hao's mouth and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Oh. The obedient aunt went to work in the kitchen again.
Uncle Defa helped Meng Hao back to the stool, and went to get a towel to wipe Meng Hao's sweat.
"Tell Uncle, where did you get this corpse poison?" asked Uncle Defa.
"It's Cao Ergouzi. Meng Hao, who had eased up, said.
"You came from Grandpa Meng San last night?" said Uncle Defa in surprise.
"Hmm. β
"You're too reckless, it's good that you didn't have an accident, if something happens, your home will be completely broken. Uncle Defa said with concern.
"Uncle, how did you get infected with corpse poison?" Meng Hao asked curiously.
"You should know the side room in your house. Uncle Defa said.
"Yes. What's the matter, your corpse poison has something to do with my grandmother. Meng Hao asked.
"Your grandmother used to be a famous mage nearby, just because of the woman's body, can't learn real kung fu, but it's also very good, when I and your father were more than ten years old when they were naughty, once secretly ran into the side room to play, there was a coffin placed in it, I and your dad were curious, I wanted to push open the coffin to see, just opened a gap and spewed out a puff of black smoke from it, I'm okay, your father directly absorbed most of it, I ran directly with your dad, and I didn't dare to tell the adult, until a day later, your dad fainted directly before the incident, since then, your grandma will never be a master again, afraid of another accidentγ Uncle Defa slowly said what happened back then.
"I see, no wonder my grandmother cares so much about that side room. Meng Hao said suddenly.
"Xiao Hao, Jiangmi soup is here, drink it while it's hot. Soon the aunt came back with the soup.
"In the future, you remember to drink Jiang rice porridge every day, and you will be fine if you drink it for about a week. Uncle Defa said.
"Thank you, uncle. "Jiangmi soup is necessary to completely remove the corpse poison from the body.
"Oh no, there was a policeman who was injured by a corpse puppet last night, and it's very likely that he was also infected with corpse poison, I need to go and see if I need to. Meng Hao drank a bowl of Jiangmi soup and suddenly exclaimed.
"Auntie, please fill me with a bottle of autopsy wine. Meng Hao said.
After getting the bottle of autopsy wine, Meng Hao quickly walked out of Uncle Defa's house and ran towards the station.
"There are zombies doing evil nearby, I'm afraid it's not peaceful, I have to go to Maoshan and ask the master for help. Uncle Defa at the door looked at the mountain outside and frowned and said.
"Hey, is it Captain Zhao?" Meng Hao, who came out of Uncle Defa's house, dialed the phone number left by Captain Zhao for himself.
"Who are you?" Captain Zhao, who answered the phone, asked in a somewhat anxious tone, and asked when he saw an unknown number calling.
"I'm Meng Hao, I have something urgent to find you. β
"It's Meng Hao, what's the matter? I have something to do, and I can't leave for the time being. β
"I wonder what happened to the policeman who was injured last night?"
"Why are you asking this, do you know anything?" Captain Zhao asked in a tight tone.
"I can't tell you where he is now, I can save him. β
"Okay, you come to the county hospital, he is being treated in the hospital now, and I am here. β
Meng Hao hung up the phone and rushed directly to the county hospital by car, and when he arrived at the county hospital, it was already dusk, and Captain Zhao was already waiting impatiently at the door of the county hospital.
I saw Meng Hao coming from afar, and rushed up directly and asked, "Do you know the reason why Xiao Zhang is sick?"
"Let me see it first. Meng Hao said, Captain Zhao took Meng Hao to an independent ward, pushed the door and walked in.
The ward is very dim, the windows are blocked by curtains, there is no light in the room, even the lights are not turned on, the policeman Xiao Zhang I saw last night is lying on the bed, his face is pale, but his mental state is not bad.
"Captain Zhao. Xiao Wu, the policewoman next to the bed, saw the captain come in and got up and shouted.
"Sure enough, I have a way to save him, but I have to endure a lot of pain. As soon as Meng Hao saw Officer Zhang's appearance, he knew that he was indeed infected with corpse poison.
"Really? As long as this strange disease can be cured, what is the point of suffering some pain. Xiao Zhang, who was forced back on the hospital bed by the captain, said in surprise when he heard Meng Hao's words.
"Okay, Captain Zhao, let Officer Zhang drink this first. β
"What is this?" Captain Zhao looked at a bottle handed over by Meng Hao, a little hesitant.
"Necropsy wine, drink this and you'll be fine. β
"Okay, I'll drink. β
Xiao Zhao did not hesitate, grabbed the bottle in Captain Zhao's hand, and drank it directly.
"Quickly control him and avoid self-harm from the pain. Meng Hao didn't expect Officer Zhang to be so straightforward, and hurriedly said.
"Ah!!h
In the next second, a fiery scorching heat began to burn in Xiao Zhang's body, Xiao Zhang's body tensed up in an instant with a roar, and his whole body trembled violently, Captain Zhao saw this and hurriedly restrained Xiao Zhang's arm, and Meng Hao and Officer Wu also came to help.
The whole process lasted about a quarter of an hour, Xiao Zhang on the bed gradually calmed down, the sheets under his body were already wet with sweat, Meng Hao left from the side of the bed, holding on to the edge of the window and gasping for a while before recovering, he had consumed too much in the past two days, and his body was weak.
"Wow"
Meng Hao opened the curtains, and the twilight sunlight directly shone on Xiao Zhang's body, unlike before, Xiao Zhang did not appear afraid of the sun again, just because the sunlight was a little dazzling, he covered his eyes with his hands.
"Okay, it's fine, I have to drink Jiangmi's porridge every day for the next week to completely remove the toxins from my body. β
"That's it, it's incredible. The policewoman Xiao Wu looked at Xiao Zhang, who was fine in the sun, and said in disbelief.
"Meng Hao, do you know what's going on?" Seeing that Xiao Zhang was fine, Captain Zhao turned around and looked at Meng Hao seriously.
"Captain, what do you think of the theory of ghosts and gods?" Meng Hao asked in a low voice, Captain Zhao frowned when he heard this, and did not speak again.
"Captain, captain, no, someone died just now, just like the first two murders. A panicked-looking policeman suddenly rushed in from outside the ward and spoke.
"What!!" everyone was taken aback.
"I'll go to the bureau with you. Captain Zhao said in a deep voice, and then looked at Xiao Zhang: "Xiao Zhang, you have a good rest." β
"No need captain, since I'm not afraid of the sun, then it's fine, this little injury is nothing. After speaking, Xiao Zhang was about to get out of bed.
"You'd better have a good rest, you're suffering from a serious injury now, and if you come into contact with this kind of case again, you're likely to die. Meng Hao reminded.
"It's an order. Hearing Meng Hao's words, Captain Zhao said in a deep voice.
Xiao Zhang was already fine, Meng Hao followed Captain Zhao out of the hospital, in front of the hospital gate, Meng Hao came to Captain Zhao's side and whispered: "Captain Zhao, it's best to have some rooster blood and Jiang rice on you, just in case." β
"I see. Captain Zhao took a deep look at Meng Hao, frowned, got out of the car and drove away from the hospital.
"Meng Hao, why did you come to the hospital, did you come to me?" Just as Meng Hao was about to turn around and leave, Zhou Tingting came from the opposite side with a lunch box and happened to meet Meng Hao.
"No, it's just a matter of taking care of something, and I'm leaving. After Meng Hao finished speaking, he directly bypassed Zhou Tingting.
Just when Tingting looked lost, Meng Hao suddenly said behind her ear: "It's not been peaceful lately, don't go out at night." β
After speaking, she didn't linger anymore, and walked to the station, Tingting looked at Meng Hao's back and smiled happily.
