Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Rat Plague

Big Wave looked at the woman's lowered eyes and asked tentatively.

"Aunt Qin, then where did the scar on your forehead come from?"

This Sudan Red has always loved to inquire about things, and only became the proprietress of a dumpling restaurant, and it was really condescending to not be a gossip reporter and paparazzi.

Qin Rujin lowered his head, stacking ingots while leisurely continuing to recall the unbearable past.

"20 years ago in the harbor area, Zhaoyun had just passed away. I had taken a deal from a businessman in the harbor area to destroy the ancestral grave of his competitor, only to be discovered by the other party.

For the middle-level leaders who are quite influential in the area of Nine Streets in the Gangwan District, I heard what kind of party they are, black and white.

His men seized me, threw me into a coffin with a dozen rats found in the garbage heap, and then fastened the coffin board, strangled the coffin to death with three-inch steel nails, and threw me into the outskirts of the mountains with the coffin.

There was no air in the coffin, no light, only me in disheveled clothes, and dozens of hungry black rats with green eyes.

I lay on my stomach in the coffin, my hands clasping my head tightly. The rats were crawling all over me, on all fours, in my hair. They screamed in my ear and gnawed at my body with their front teeth.

After a long time, my body no longer felt pain, only strips of cloth soaked in blood and sticky, tightly wrapped around my body like duct tape.

At that time, I knew that I would not survive. I'm going to be gnawed and bitten to death by those rats. Eaten by the dirtiest beast in the world. It's like garbage in a garbage heap, a puddle of feces in the stomachs of rats.

There was a mouse that climbed on my forehead and his tail was long. It was so dark in the coffin that I couldn't make out the mouse. All I know is that its tail swept my nostrils one by one, and it not only devoured my flesh, but also taunted me with its tail.

I felt like I was crazy. Reaching for his forehead, he grabbed the rat and stuffed it into his mouth and bit it down hard. A violent stream of mucus erupted in my mouth, and the liquid was fishy and smelly, and I knew it was the marrow and blood of a mouse.

The rat squeaked like crazy, as if in surrender to me. I felt more pleasure than I had ever felt before, and I was determined that whatever they did to me, I would return it a thousand times over. ”

Qin Rujin slowly talked about the past in front of her, with a light expression and tone, as if she was not telling her own personal experience, but someone else's story.

I didn't expect that the origin of the scar on her forehead would be so disgusting! Da Wave listened to the little face become distorted, and I saw her holding her stomach, as if she was a little sick to her stomach.

I then asked.

"And how did you survive?"

The corners of Qin Rujin's mouth tugged at a contemptuous smile.

"If the heavens do not destroy me, they will let me harm the common people.

I was in a coffin fighting the rats, and either I ate them or I was eaten by them. I was sealed in the coffin for an unknown amount of time, and the last remaining air was almost exhausted, and I began to have trouble breathing, and my illusions slowly surfaced in front of my eyes.

Even if I die, I won't lose. I don't want to die in humiliation in front of the beasts, I want to bury these beasts with me. ”

"So, you ate them all?" I felt a chill in my heart, and the hairs on my body stood on end.

Qin Rujin nodded calmly, "I am full of food, and my mouth is full of fine hairs." Then I quietly closed my eyes and waited for death to come.

Slowly I fell asleep, maybe it shouldn't be called lethargy, it should be that the brain fainted from lack of oxygen. When I opened my eyes again, I was lying in a hospital in the harbor area.

It was an old man who saved me, and when he saw such a large coffin in the suburbs, and that it was bound to death by steel nails, he thought that there was a treasure to be found in it!

The scavenger took me to the hospital and I was saved. I didn't have the plague, I didn't have the contagion, except for the scars on my forehead and body, I didn't survive in the slightest.

Then, still unable to pay the medical bills, I escaped from the hospital overnight while my body was recovering, and returned to the mainland by boat with the money I begged for in the lamp district of Mong Kok, Harbour District. ”

After listening to Qin Rujin's story, in the small paper shop, all that was left was a few of us breathing heavily.

I remember Zhang Ailing said a sentence, if you knew me in the past, you would forgive me now.

The former Qin Rujin, the girl in her early 20s, is peerless. I longed for love, and I wanted to live with the person I loved.

It was life that abandoned her and gave her blows again and again, it was God who took away the man she loved the most from her, and it was God who made her suffer mental and physical torture. No wonder she became what she is now. Maybe if it were me, I would have ended up with her.

Qin Rujin looked at us who were silent, and a scornful smile rose at the corner of his mouth.

"Have pity on me?" her slightly hoarse voice was strange and smart.

"Do you want to know, what happened to the old scavenger?"

"Old scavenger, your savior?"

I looked into Qin Rujin's eyes, and she looked at me without any fear. The eyes were cold, hollow, and black, like an endless abyss.

I was so dizzy from her staring that I had to bow my head silently.

Qin Rujin jokingly recalled.

"Before I escaped from the harbor area, I couldn't miss the old man who was scavenging. Without him, I'd be a puddle of mud in a coffin.

I sneaked up to meet him. He lives in a wood-paneled house he built himself in the suburbs. The harbor area is more like rain, and the roof of the wooden house is not covered by tiles, so a small layer of plastic sheeting is laid, and the raindrops hit the plastic sheeting, crackling, like a war drum on the expedition.

The old man was over 70 years old, with no wife and no children. It should also be an unidentified stowaway, he is not hungry, but he does not dare to lead the relief funds of the Bay Area.

So, before I left, I gave him a big gift ....... ”

I said, "It can't be money, and you're penniless." They are the poorest and poorest people. ”

"Yes!" Qin Rujin affirmed my statement, "What's so good about money? It's just a devil who inspires people's souls and divides people into three, six, nine, and so on."

What I gave to the old man was a Gu. ”

"Gu?" I couldn't believe it.

Qin Rujin looked into the distance, and his thoughts seemed to return to the night before he left from the harbor area.

It was raining heavily, and the old man was curled up on a leather couch with a broken skin and a sponge he had picked up, covered with a dirty, shiny army-green cotton coat.

There were no lights, no stoves, no hot water for him to drink, and he ate sandwiches from the garbage heaps and slag thrown away.

The girls in the harbor area are very particular, and they have to cut the sides of the toast. These toasts have become life-saving food for scavengers.

You say, what's the point of living in the world like this? So I gave him a Gu, which was a giant leech soaked in poison.

This leech is a good thing, as long as the person who touches it will be sucked into a dry corpse by it in less than half an hour. And its mouthparts can release an anesthetic. He crawls on your body, sucking the blood of a living person, but you don't feel pain, only numbness, followed by limp limp and confusion. It will go into shock at the fastest time.

You'll die quietly in shock, sucked clean of your filthy blood. Your flesh wraps tightly around your bones and internal organs. Like a solemn air-dried human specimen.

Unfortunately, I hate those medical school students the most. They will turn unclaimed corpses into their gross teachers. Take a scalpel and cut your flesh and skin and soak your internal organs in formalin.

Unfortunately, I don't have time, I don't want to stay in the harbor area for a second longer. Otherwise, I would have turned that medical school into a mass grave. ”

Listening to Qin Rujin's narration, the big wave couldn't accept it at all.

Maybe it's because last night's wine hasn't completely sobered up. I saw a big wave covering my stomach and rushing out of the door. Then she was heard vomiting violently.
