Chapter 015
Qin Huailiang said that, two powerful people, Zhang Xiao and Liu Wei, began to examine Zu Xiwei and me.
And I was a little embarrassed and couldn't help but reach out to scratch my head.
Zu Xiwei had an indifferent expression on her face, chewing big bubble gum in her mouth, and then spit out a bubble with a "pop".
Chewing bubble gum is a hobby of Zu Xiwei. I also tried to chew it, but because I couldn't blow out the bubbles, I gave up.
Zhang Xiao and Liu Wei didn't ask much, and led us into the health center.
While walking, Zhang Xiao introduced: "This epidemic is a bit special. Anyone who is infected with the epidemic will eat less and drink less, then not eat or drink. In a few days, he will become thin and will occasionally spit out black turbid objects in his mouth, accompanied by symptoms of sleepwalking."
Liu Wei also added next to him: "Sometimes they have a tendency to be violent. Don't look at them as crazy as they are full of flesh and blood. Without three or five strong laborers, they can't be suppressed. Now all the patients admitted to the hospital are locked in the bed, otherwise they will all be crazy, and there will be insufficient staff here."
Liu Wei's words meant some complaints.
Zhang Xiao said in an official voice: "This is impossible. This epidemic is special. We cannot invest too much manpower in, otherwise if the matter spreads, we may have a bad impact."
"Even the blockade of the surrounding areas was carried out in secret. Fortunately, the mobility of people in the mountains was relatively small, otherwise this matter would have been exposed long ago."
Qin Huailiang raised his hand to interrupt their conversation, and asked directly: "How many patients are living in the health center now?"
Zhang Xiao and Liu Wei said at the same time: "Thirty-seven (forty-two)!"
The numbers the two people said were different.
Zhang Xiao immediately added: "Thirty-seven living people, and five dead people were dead, but according to Teacher Wang's instructions, the five dead people were not buried, but were isolated and refrigerated."
Qin Huailiang nodded and said, "Is the first patient found here dead?"
Liu Wei shook his head and said, "No, the first infected patient was in the 203 ward. Although his condition was not cured, he was the best among all infected people."
Zhang Xiao added: "His name is Hong Siqi. He is twenty years old this year. He is the youngest among all infected people. His parents are also infected with this disease, but he is not as lucky as he is. The names of his parents are included in the five deaths list."
"He was sent to the health center by his parents. At the beginning, his parents did not have such symptoms, but after serving him here for a few days, he started to get sick."
Qin Huailiang asked again: "Have they investigated the cause of their disease?"
Zhang Xiao said: "It was initially suspected that it was bitten by a kind of insect, but there is no conclusion yet."
Qin Huailiang said, "Take me to see Hong Siqi."
We soon went up the second floor. Before we could go upstairs, we heard "wailing" sounds coming from the corridor and the painful moans of some patients.
All ward doors were chained and locked.
Looking at the chains, I felt a little surprised and couldn't help but feel that it was not the patients in the ward, but the monsters.
Zhang Xiao explained: "The situation is special and I have to do this, but all patients will receive the best treatment. You can rest assured that this is."
Soon we arrived at the door of the 203 ward. Zhang Xiao called someone to open the door and asked if we needed protective clothing to enter the ward.
Qin Huailiang shook his head and said, "No need."
Actually, I want to ask if there are any children wearing them. I am afraid that I will get into that strange disease.
As soon as the ward door opened, a smelly smell came to our face, and we subconsciously covered our noses.
Although we had already smelled this odor when we went upstairs, we didn't expect that the smell in the ward would be so pungent.
My little eyes were so smoked that they were about to cry.
Zu Xiwei even pinched her nose and murmured in a low voice: "It's so stinking!"
As he said that, the bubble gum in his mouth also spit on a piece of paper, then rolled it hard and threw it into the trash can at the entrance of the corridor more than ten meters away.
"when!"
Zu Xiwei's throwing was quite accurate.
But I could see that she added a sensation to the paper ball. It was under the influence of that sensation that the paper ball fell into the trash bin accurately.
Zu Xiwei has completed the gathering of energy and can use some small tricks, but I have just been able to concentrate.
Qin Huailiang glared at Zu Xiwei, as if he was blaming Zu Xiwei for showing off.
At this time, we also took a brief look at the situation in the ward. There were already many black spots on the white sheets and quilts on the bed, and even the walls had traces of black stains.
On the hospital bed was a man in a white hospital gown. He looked thin, pale, short hair, and his hands and feet were locked in the corners of the hospital bed. He could only lie down and look at the ceiling.
Qin Huailiang took the lead and walked in, and then Fang Yue followed in. Zu Xiwei hesitated for a moment and pulled me into it, but I was still a little resistant.
Zhang Xiao and Liu Wei had no intention of coming in, and they also took two steps away from the door of the ward.
Qin Huailiang looked at the man on the hospital bed, staring for a while, and then said, "Your name is Hong Siqi?"
The man nodded, looking very sane.
Qin Huailiang continued: "It seems that you have a lot of doubts in your heart. In this way, you follow me and take us to that place, and solve the matter there, and your illness will be cured. It's just that your parents have passed away and I can't do anything about it."
Hong Siqi's eyes burst into tears.
Zhang Xiao said outside: "Teacher Qin, there is a regulation above that patients cannot be taken away from this hospital, otherwise if something happens, we will be responsible."
Qin Huailiang said in a cold tone: "If something goes wrong, I'll take responsibility. If you don't want to solve the problem, more and more people will die in the future, and you still can't explain it."
After saying that, Qin Huailiang pointed at Hong Siqi and said to Zhang Xiao: "Let me find someone to unlock the lock, I will take him away now."
Zhang Xiao and Liu Wei looked at each other for a few times, but they still found someone to unlock the lock.
However, when we took Hong Siqi away, the two of them and the staff here had already hid far away.
The reason why Qin Huailiang took Hong Siqi away must have been through his eyes that he had spyed through what Hong Siqi was thinking clearly. Then he found that some of the clips were useful, so he brought Hong Siqi with him.
That's right. If he knew everything about Hong Siqi, why would he still have to bring Hong Siqi with him? Hong Siqi is an ordinary person and is now a patient, so it would be a burden to keep him by his side.
I subconsciously looked at Qin Huailiang, and his unanimous eyes also looked at me.
I couldn't help but turn my head, but at the moment I turned my head, I saw the corner of his mouth slightly raised, and a cunning smile appeared.
He led Hong Siqi to use him.
But what value does Hong Siqi have?
After thinking about it, I only thought of one possibility, which is to be used as bait.
Thinking of this, I felt a little sympathetic to Hong Siqi, but meeting Qin Huailiang is considered unlucky, and I am still in danger of being protected by myself now. In addition, I am only eleven years old, so I can't save him no matter what.
Qin Huailiang seemed to see through my thoughts, so he walked over and patted my shoulder and said, "If you want to replace Hong Siqi, I can help you."
I was so scared that I shook my head quickly.
After leaving the hospital, we got into the black sedan. Qin Huailiang was quite conscientious and let Hong Siqi sit in the co-pilot. Then he went to the back seat to squeeze with me and Zu Xiwei, without letting Hong Siqi squeeze with us.
If Hong Siqi sat in the back row, Zu Xiwei and I would definitely collapse.
When Hong Siqi came out, Qin Huailiang asked him to go to the water room in the hospital to rush, and then threw him into Fang Yue's clothes. The smell on his body was much smaller, otherwise, if we were sitting in the car, we would be smoky to death.
After the car started, Fang Yue joked to Qin Huailiang: "Master Qin, remember to replenish the money for this clothes."
Qin Huailiang smiled and said, "I'm giving you more money, isn't it enough for you to buy two clothes?"
Hong Siqi was wearing Fang Yue's clothes and looked very fat. He sat in the passenger seat without saying a word, staring blankly ahead, and showed Fang Yue the way when it was time to turn.
At this time, I couldn't help asking Qin Huailiang what he saw in Hong Siqi's head.
Qin Huailiang said, let him tell you himself.
As he said that, Qin Huailiang reached out and patted Hong Siqi on the shoulder and said, "Tell them, how did you get a strange disease."
Hong Siqi was silent for a while and then began to say, "Isn't it summer now? It's a rainy season. Not long ago, it was a heavy rain that had never happened in a century. The flood flooded many villages and even died."
"But after the flood receded, the mountain torrent also brought a lot of treasures."
"In the depths of Duanlong Mountain at the west end of our town, there is a place called Zanglonggou. Because of this flood, a lot of broken iron ore was washed out. The big ones were as big as watermelons and the size of small fists. Those iron ore could be sold for money after picking up."
"Good luck, I can earn more than 100 yuan a day!"
"My parents and I were the first to discover these ores, but in a few days, more and more people went to pick up ores. The entire Zanglong Valley was dense, and there were probably hundreds of people."
"Later, those who collected ore widened the original path and drove their cars to Zanglonggou. The ore they picked up on the site could be sold at that time, so there were more people going there."
"With more people, the ore in Burial Dragon Grotto is not enough to pick up. People start to use picks and shovels to dig deeper places. Burial Dragon Grotto was dug in a few days and it was not very good."
"And I was also doing something while mining."
When Hong Siqi said this, his face showed a look of fear, and some unpleasant experiences made his mood fluctuate a little.
His hand grabbed his knee hard, and he was about to scratch it.
