Chu Yunsheng sat on the floor while staring at the pig’s brain, and thinking that he should probably go to the nearby zoo to get some more animals’ brains. Although he stored quite a lot of pork, he only had three pigs’ brains, he didn’t know that it could be this useful before.
After checking his injuries, he felt numbness in his right hand, and when he was trying to move, it caused him a great pain. His abdomen was pinched tightly by the insect earlier, so the injury here was the most severe. He even felt pain when he breathed. But fortunately, he was not missing any body parts. His injuries would recover once the Yuan Qi circulated inside his body for a complete cycle.
The remaining two units of Yuan Qi were more than enough to deal with the two dying red-sh.e.l.led insects.
After he collected the three insects’ bodies he did not rush into the hospital, he held his right hand and found himself a quiet corner.
So far he had saved up two absorption Talismans, they were all filled up with flame patterns. Before he left the restaurant, he had used one of them to restore his Yuan Qi. Now he only had one and a half, a total of nine flame patterns left. It meant that he could still restore eighteen units of Yuan Qi.
So, he decided to use the half talisman to restore his Yuan Qi.
Looking at the used talisman making a sibilant sound and slowly burning out in the mid-air, Chu Yunsheng took out a cigarette and thought, in this battle, he had killed three red-sh.e.l.led insects, it had cost him six units of Yuan Qi, which equaled the amount that he gathered from the three dead insects. But he collected more materials in the end. In short, the result was not too bad.
Chu Yunsheng didn’t dare to take a break, the night was still long. Once he finished the cigarette, he started to move again!
This community hospital had two buildings, one big and one small, and both buildings were built using red bricks. There were bodies lying around on the ground next to the wall, some looked like doctors and others looked like patients, but they all had something similar, which were the empty skulls. It was definitely done by red-sh.e.l.led insects.
The main building’s gla.s.s door at the entrance was broken. The shattered gla.s.s pieces were scattered all round the floor, making the cracking sounds when Chu Yunsheng walked on it.
There was a huge pool of blood in the reception area, the hall was a mess. Medical reports and newspapers were everywhere. The headlines printed on the newspapers were very eye-catching:
<The sun disappeared!>
Or the even more frightening one:
<Monsters attacking humans! Army involved!>
There was half an intestine hanging on the new patient registration window. The blood that had dripped from it was already frozen. There were a few banknotes whirling in the eddies of wind. The computers and furniture were all knocked over, it seemed that a serious riot had happened here before.
There was a cupboard tightly blocked behind the security door. However, there was a hole in the top half of the door. An eyeball was stuck on the rusty metal on top of the door. it looked ferociously at the dark corridor behind the hall.
The notice board for introducing traditional Chinese medicine was broken into half, there was hair with blood all over the broken gla.s.s.
Chu Yunsheng turned to the right, saw a counter. On the top of the counter, there was a sign, which was about to fall down. It read “Drug collection”. In front of the counter, the chairs were all over the place, some of them had been broken into pieces.
Chu Yunsheng did not know what happened here, but it was so quiet that he could even hear his own footsteps!
Every step he made, he could hear the sound of it echoing back from deep inside the corridor as if he was stepping into h.e.l.l. The gust of wind constantly brought the heavy smell of blood to his face through the corridor.
Chu Yunsheng always felt something was amiss about this hospital. This place was very creepy and hair-raising, but he could not tell what exactly made him feel that way!
However, he had already gotten to this point, there was no way he would give up halfway. He just needed to hurry and find the drugs then leave this place as soon as possible.
The counter window for drug collection was broken. As long as he carefully removed the debris, he would be able to climb over it. Behind the counter, the cabinet for the drugs had fallen onto each other one by one just like dominos. All the drugs had fallen on the ground and scattered everywhere in the room.
As Chu Yunsheng controlled the beam that came from the storage and scanned the whole room, all the drugs were sucked into the talisman. He didn’t have time to differentiate which drug was useful, and which was not. Once he got to a safer place, he could take his time and check them one by one.
The drug collection counter did not have many drugs, the majority of the drugs were stored in the drug storage facility. According to the map drawn by that female teacher, if he wanted to go to the drug storage room, he had to go through that deep dark corridor!
Should he go or not?
Chu Yunsheng did not know why he feared this corridor. The hospital was already creepy enough, plus the sounds of insects that came and went like ghosts, it made him even more afraid of this hospital!
Grabbing a counterfeit detector from the counter, he threw it very hard down the corridor, and then quickly aimed the crossbow at the corridor.
“Clang … clang …” the counterfeit detector rolled very far.
Nothing happened, no insects jumped out, no ghosts appeared.
Chu Yunsheng was slightly relieved, ‘Maybe I am too paranoid. If there are any insects, they should have come out already!’ he thought.
