After that, I wanted to be discharged from the hospital, so I went to settle the bill. This hospital is really bad. I have only given glucose injections for the past eight days without any other medicine, and it cost me 5,000 yuan. I originally wanted to argue with their director.
Theory, but after thinking about it carefully, I decided to forget it, because it was useless. I, a civilian, would definitely not be able to compete with their hospital. In the end, I had to pay obediently. I might as well just pay it directly to avoid trouble.
Fortunately, during the summer vacation, I got a lot of labor fees from helping Master look after the store, about seven or eight thousand. I sadly handed the stack of Mao Zedong to the nurse sister who paid the fee. She gave me a cold look and gave me my money.
No, the hospital money was put into the banknote detector. Blink, the monitor showed 50 one-hundred-dollar bills, and there was no sound of counterfeit money. Her face became a little better, and she stamped the invoice.
After reading a few chapters, he handed it to me.
After I was discharged from the hospital, Fatty kept urging me not to go back to school, saying that no one would care about us now and we could spend as much time as we wanted.
In the end, I couldn't stand his temptation. I thought it was too late for a poor student like me to study well for the college entrance examination, so I simply listened to him and played outside for a few days first.
Then we stayed up all night in the Internet cafe for two consecutive nights, and slept for half a day. When we woke up, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon, and we thought it was time to go back to school.
…
We were walking on a small street. When we passed a telephone pole, Fatty glanced at the small advertisement posted on it, and then suddenly stopped and stood there in a daze.
"Damn fat man, what are you looking at?"
"Huizi, look." He pointed to the telephone pole, his hands shaking a little.
I was a little curious about what attracted him, so I looked at it, and I was a little stunned when I saw it.
The telephone poles were covered with small advertisements. One of them was a missing person notice, and there was also a photo of a girl, who was the female nurse who tried to harm me before.
I saw it read: Li ××, born on August 19, 1996, disappeared near Qujiang Road, Donglan County on September 19, 2016...
Judging from the date, this girl has been missing for about 10 days, and she is already dead. I don’t know how she died or how she turned into a zombie. I want to find out the truth, so I put this advertisement with my hand.
Tear it off.
"Fat man, let's not go back to school yet."
"ah?"
"Ah, what? Come with me to buy some things first."
Then I found a small grocery store on this street, went in and asked the boss if he had any cinnabar for sale. The boss smiled and said nothing, took out a large bag of cinnabar from the container and put it on the counter.
When I saw it, my eyes suddenly lit up. This cinnabar was bright red and translucent as a whole, unlike the other dark red ones. Moreover, when I put a small piece in front of my nose and smelled it, there was a faint fragrance. This is only the best cinnabar.
The characteristics that will appear are that cinnabar is a thing that wards off evil spirits. If you use high-quality cinnabar to draw talismans, the effect will definitely be much better.
I asked the boss how much a pound of cinnabar cost, and he said one hundred.
Okay, it's a bit expensive, but it's not a loss to buy such good cinnabar at this price. Because now I just need to draw a few talismans, and I don't need a lot, so I only bought one kilogram.
When I was about to leave the grocery store, I suddenly noticed a piece of wood standing at the door of the store, and asked the boss, "Is this peach wood? How much did it cost? I bought it."
The boss said with a smile, "Yes, I originally wanted to use it to light the fire, but you wanted it so I gave it to you."
Then, we borrowed two hatchets and an ax from the owner of the grocery store. I handed a hatchet to the fat man, and then I took the ax to chop the peach wood. Having lived in the countryside since I was a child, I am not good at chopping firewood.
, it split open just once.
The fat man didn't understand what I wanted to do, so I told him that he just needed to cut these two pieces of peach wood into two wooden knives.
Damn it, those Taoist priests on TV all use mahogany swords to deal with zombies and the like. Now I will break the tradition and make a mahogany machete!
About 0 minutes later, the two wooden knives were declared completed. I looked at the one in the fat man's hand and then at mine, and couldn't help laughing. His mahogany knife could be described as extremely ugly.
The entire blade is oval in shape, and I don't know what he was thinking. The tip of the blade is actually cut into a guillochon. The whole blade looks like a wooden one, and there is no way it is a knife at all.
"Hahaha..." It was so funny that it made my stomach hurt from laughing.
"Smile, laugh, I am doing art, you don't understand." The fat man kicked me and knocked me to the ground, but he couldn't stop me from laughing. I couldn't stop at all.
"Haha, what do you guys who buy cinnabar and make mahogany knives want to do, imitate the Taoist priests on TV to deal with zombies?" The grocery store owner looked at the two of us with interest.
"So be it." The fat man said as he kicked me.
We said goodbye to the owner of the grocery store, went to a bookstore to buy brushes and paper, and then found a relatively remote place to start drawing symbols.
The fat man said that this was the first time he had seen someone draw symbols with his own eyes, and he was very interested. He asked me to teach him when I had time. I said yes, three hundred yuan an hour. Then he kicked me in the butt without saying a word.
He scolded, "You are a chicken, you still need three hundred yuan!"
It took nearly an hour to draw nearly 0 talismans. I am very satisfied with the efficiency this time and it is much better than before.
Then I folded one of the talismans called the lying on the ground tracking technique into a thousand paper cranes, and said, "The Three Purities have orders to track down on the ground!"
The paper crane flew up from my hand and floated in the air. I took out the missing person notice from before, pointed to the photo on it and said to it, "Heaven exists and people exist, earth exists and soul exists. Life is important."
If you see a person, you will see his body after death, so quickly find this person."
After it hovered in the air for a while, the crane pointed its head in one direction and flew over.
"Wow, I want to learn this, it's so fucking awesome."
"Okay, hurry up and catch up, or you won't be able to keep up."
Since our place is relatively remote and not many people come, we don’t have to worry about anyone seeing this scene.
We followed the direction in which the paper crane flew, and encountered many obstacles along the way. It kept turning, but its direction never changed. It seemed that the walking corpse had stayed in place and not moved.
After running for about twenty minutes, the paper crane finally stopped. I was so tired that I bent down and gasped for air, while the fat man lay on the ground and collapsed.
This place is a forest with lush vegetation. It stands to reason that it would still be bright at six o'clock in the afternoon in the summer, but it has become very dark because there are many large trees with lush leaves.
The paper crane stopping here meant that the walking corpse was nearby. I quickly pulled the fat man up and said, "Pay attention, the walking corpse is nearby."
When he heard this, he was stunned for a moment, as if he remembered the terrifying look of the female nurse, and suddenly became nervous. He held the peach wood knife in his hand and pressed tightly against me.
We walked together back to back, paying attention to the situation around us.
Plop!
"Ah!" Suddenly, several small black figures flew out of the grass, startling the two of us, and the fat man screamed in fright.
"Ah...ah...ah..." I exhaled after hearing a cry of crows. Those black figures were just a few crows.
"Okay, it's just a few crows." I covered the fat man's mouth to prevent him from continuing to crow.
The fat man was relieved when he heard it was a crow, but he suddenly became alert and kept sniffing with his nose, "Huizi, do you smell a rotten smell?"
When he said this, I suddenly remembered something and quickly pulled him away. (To be continued)
