Chapter 35: Plague Village 11
When Gu Shu came to the village chief's house, he saw a pretty...young woman standing at the door from a distance?
He felt panicked in his heart, everyone is the attending doctor, why should he be the only one to suffer like this? Originally, Gu Shu felt that being an attending doctor here was quite clean, but now he just wanted to escape from here. After sending away all the patients this time, he must change to another place, the less crowded the better.
Yu Xiao stared at Gu Shu with both eyes, until he approached, Yu Xiao said: "Doctor Gu Shu, you are here."
Gu Shu clearly saw someone hiding in a corner not far away and peeking this way. Now when he glanced at Yu Xiao, his heart ached, and when he heard Yu Xiao speak, his hands trembled. Because he hated it too much, but couldn't do anything, he felt heartbroken.
"Thank you, Doctor Gushu." Yu Xiao walked beside Gushu, looking up and down as if with hooks in his eyes, "It's so late for a visit."
Gu Shu held back his words and walked all the way to the door of Gu Jingrong's room. Just as he was about to open the door, he encountered a warm little hand.
Yu Xiao withdrew his hand as if frightened, and then looked at Gu Shu shyly, "Doctor Gu Shu, don't do this, he is already married."
Ancient tree: "..."
Pushing open the door, there was a loveless person lying on the bed.
Gu Shu walked over, stood by the bed and looked at Gu Jingrong. There were tears in the corners of Gu Jingrong's eyes, his eyes were empty, and he looked lifeless. It seemed that there was a serious problem.
Gu Shu asked: "Where did you get hurt?"
"He hurt his stomach." Yu Xiao said aside.
Gu Shu really wanted to ask if you could shut up, but he didn't. After all, he is still a well-trained attending doctor. So he lifted the quilt and lifted Gu Jingrong's clothes, and then he saw the unusually obvious fist marks on Gu Jingrong's stomach.
"How did you get hurt?" Gu Shu said and glanced at Yu Xiao, "Don't tell me you fell."
"How is this possible?" Yu Xiao said very calmly: "Anyone with eyes can tell that it was beaten."
Gu Shu: "Who hit it?"
"Who else?" Yu Xiao lowered his head, pinching the corners of his clothes with both hands, like a little girl who made a mistake, "Of course it's me."
"..." She was so honest that she almost destroyed the ancient tree.
Gu Shu's curiosity was aroused again, he couldn't control himself and asked, "Why did you hit him?"
After he finished speaking, he began to regret it, because he felt a familiar feeling somewhere, that was the feeling of stepping into a pit again.
Sure enough, in the next second, he saw Yu Xiao giving him a resentful look, and then said in an even more resentful tone: "Don't you know why I did this?"
Gu Shuxin said how could I know, and I don't want to know anymore.
But it's too late for him to regret it now, because Yu Xiao has already said the next words.
"You rejected me, Doctor Gushu that day, but my heart will never forget Doctor Gushu. Although I am already married to someone else, I don't want other people to touch me, even if this person has already married me." Yu Xiao said and glanced at Gu Jingrong on the bed, "So I hit him."
"..."
Gu Shu's hands unconsciously clenched into fists.
Gu Jingrong on the bed finally couldn't bear it any longer, and burst into tears, "Woooooooooooooo what's the point of me being alive..."
Ancient tree: "..."
"Doctor Gu Shu? Why didn't you move?" Yu Xiao looked at Gu Shu innocently, "Help him heal quickly, you can't ignore him just because of his relationship with me."
"..."
When Gu Shu was leaving, he ran into Gu Jingrong's mother in the yard. The aunt who had just died of her husband was dressed in gaudy clothes and was staring at Gu Shu with resentment.
There was a haze in Gu Shu's eyes. Generally speaking, intelligent NPCs in the dungeon world have a natural awe of the attending doctor. Why did she look at herself with such eyes?
Soon he knew the answer. When Gu Shu was about to walk out of the yard, Gu Jingrong's mother said, "Stay away from my daughter-in-law from now on!"
The people who hid in the dark and observed immediately gasped. It seemed that Doctor Gu Shu and the village chief's wife were really involved.
Gu Shu left without saying anything, but this strengthened his determination to leave here.
Not long after Gu Shu left, other people entered the room, and Zhao Lan lifted Gu Jingrong up and put him on the floor. Yu Xiao asked, "How's the matter?"
"It's done." Lu Xun said, "Old Luo has already buried that piece of meat in the ground of Gu Shu's house."
"Hmph." Yu Xiao smiled complacently, "Even if something happens like this, there is a high probability that we will not be the ones who are unlucky."
Lu Xun looked at Yu Xiao, seeing how skilled she was, it was probably not the first time she had tricked the attending doctor.
He couldn't help thinking, there shouldn't be such a person in the Fourth Academy, right? These three people have such strange styles, they must not belong to the Fourth Academy. If such a person is in the Fourth Court, it is unreasonable for him not to know.
Yu Xiao lay on the bed at night, and it was rare that he didn't fall asleep quickly. From so many things she encountered after she came to the village, she had a feeling that there must be some connection between these things.
"Gu Jingrong." Yu Xiao asked, "When your father went to the temple to beg for meat for you last year, did anything happen in the village?"
At this moment, Gu Jingrong was male on the left and right, lying on the floor straight without daring to move. Hearing this, he said, "Something? No... nothing happened."
With his silly appearance, Yu Xiao didn't expect to be able to ask anything. So he turned over, tucked the quilt tightly around his neck, and soon fell asleep.
It was Sun Yun and Zuo Qing's turn to watch the night tonight, but they didn't fall asleep last night, and they had no empty sleeves during the day, so Zuo Qing couldn't bear it at night.
She sat on the chair by the door and fell asleep without knowing it. In her sleep, she smelled a very strong smell, which was the smell of rural earthen toilets.
Maybe it was because of her bad sleeping position, or because of the smell, she woke up unexpectedly.
The room was pitch black, and the kerosene lamp was turned off at some point. She was about to take out her mobile phone to check the time, it should be time for shift change.
Suddenly she heard a creepy sound, like someone chewing something.
The voice came from the direction of the bed, and Zuo Qing's hairs stood on end. She clenched her teeth and held her breath unconsciously. Trembling, she turned on the phone's light, and for a moment she saw a dark shadow standing beside Zhang Feng's bed.
Sensing the light, the dark shadow turned its head with a **** arm in its mouth.
"Ahhh!"
Yu Xiao was awakened by the knock on the door, Luo Jin had already walked to the door, "I'll go and open the door."
Outside the door was Zuo Qing with a pale face. Luo Jin asked, "What happened?"
"Something went wrong, that ghost reappeared." Zuo Qing's voice was still trembling, "Zhang Feng got eaten with an arm."
When Yu Xiao and the others rushed over, Zhang Feng was still in a coma, and Wang Yang was trying to help him stop the bleeding. Seeing them come back, Sun Yun was greatly relieved.
Lu Xun asked: "What's going on?"
"Someone framed it." Sun Yun spread out his hands, holding a small piece of incense, "I found this in the crack of Zhang Feng's bed."
Zuo Qing said: "Since someone burned incense under Sister Xiao's bed last time, we would check the bottom of the bed every time before going to bed, but I didn't expect the incense to be hidden in the crevice of the bed this time. I was on vigil today, and I accidentally fell asleep. After falling asleep, I was awakened by a stench, and saw a dark ghost standing beside Zhang Feng's bed, eating his hand."
If there is a stench, it is the ghost that Yu Xiao chased last time. Yu Xiao glanced at Zhang Feng, who was still in a coma and his face was pale, and handed Wang Yang two talismans, "Help him heal."
Wang Yang saw that they were two healing talismans, he thanked them gratefully, and quickly used them for Zhang Feng.
Holding the piece of incense in Yu Xiao's hand, he thought of one thing. After the death of the former village chief, there was everything in the mourning hall except for burning incense. This is obviously unreasonable. How can a dead person not light incense?
Also, where did the ghosts in the village come from? There are obviously no ghosts in the cemetery, so why are there ghosts in the village? Does the plague in the village have anything to do with these ghosts?
"I plan to catch that ghost." Yu Xiao said to everyone, "Let's discuss it."
"It's easy to catch ghosts." Lu Xun pointed to the stick of incense in her hand, "Light it up and throw it under a sleeping person's bed."
This is easy to handle, there is one ready-made.
Back at the village chief's house, Gu Jingrong had already climbed into bed and fell asleep. He didn't sleep well on the ground for the past two days, and finally those evil stars were called away, so he quickly took the opportunity to climb into bed and have a good sleep.
Yu Xiao lit the incense and threw it under Gu Jingrong's bed, then hid in the room with the others.
After about twenty minutes, Yu Xiao heard footsteps. Then she smelled a stench, and at some point a dark shadow appeared in the room.
Yu Xiao covered his nose and took a peek. It was strange, the ghosts here all looked pitch black, and they couldn't see anything clearly.
The black shadow walked straight towards the bed, walked to the edge of the bed, and then bent down.
At this moment, a person suddenly jumped out from the side of the bed, that person was carrying a small box in his hand, and shouted: "Come and play with me for a couple of laps!"
The next second, Gu Jingrong, who was lying on the bed, sat up straight, and Lu Xun, who was hiding in the dark, couldn't help himself and walked out.
The three of them and one ghost sat down in four directions and started playing mahjong.
Lu Xun was surprised while rubbing, "What kind of prop is this? It's amazing."
Gu Jingrong also woke up. When he woke up, he found himself sitting on the ground, rubbing mahjong with his hands uncontrollably. The most terrible thing was that sitting across from him was a pitch-black thing that was not human at first sight.
Just as he was about to open his mouth to scream, he saw Luo Jin clenching his fists and looking at him, so he swallowed the scream.
Zhou Xiaozhen was fiddling with the mahjong, and said, "What the **** is this? It really stinks, is it a **** ghost?"
Yu Xiao has never been embarrassed to say that this ghost was once forced into a cesspit by her. She coughed in embarrassment and said, "Don't worry about it, let's start."
As he said that, he smiled and took out a stack of lightning strike charms and placed them in front of Soi Ying.
Sombra: "..."
"You answer what I ask." Yu smiled and said, "What the **** are you? Why do you want to eat people who burn incense under the bed?"
Sombra: "..."
"Sister Xiao." Zhou Xiaozhen said, "It looks like it can't talk."
Yu Xiao frowned, why can't one or two of these ghosts speak?
"It turns out that the legend is true." Gu Jingrong had an expression on the verge of fainting, "As long as you burn incense, you will attract evil spirits. I always thought it was a feudal superstition, but I didn't expect it to be true! Oh, oh, my mother Fear…
