Hospital No. 444.

Chapter 271 The Depths of the Mist
It is indeed a great privilege for David to be able to walk in the middle of the large army.For example, if he slips, someone behind him can give him a hand.If he didn't notice the fog coming, the people behind him could also remind him.

The only pity is that the players were all selected by lottery that day.This also means that there is not much time...to develop relationships.Human feelings are like this, if there is no communication, it will be difficult to produce.When encountering difficulties, it is love to help you, and it is normal not to help.

In front of the barren fields in front of him was that large sea of ​​fog.

This piece of fog seems to cover the sky and cover the sun, spreading all the way to the sky. Inside the white fog, the visibility is completely 0.

It is reasonable to say that this thick fog that connects the sky and the earth should be visible from any position in the village, but the strange thing is that... the fog can only be seen near the edge of the village.

"This used to be the closest road between our village and the next-door village." David heard a voice behind him: "When the fog first started to rise, there was a villager in the village who had just gotten engaged to a girl from the next-door village, and all the bride price was paid. Yes, I made an appointment to hold a wedding during the Chinese New Year. It's been ten years now...she should have married someone else long ago."

"Is the villager you speak of yourself?"

"Ah bah bah bah! It's not me! It's really someone else!"

"Actually, my daughter-in-law is okay. I was only a teenager ten years ago. My parents went to work in the provincial capital and said they would help me save tuition fees, hoping that I would be admitted to university in the future... It has been ten years, and I don't know what my parents did. That's it."

"I was lucky. At that time, the Chinese New Year was coming, and my parents had already come back. I remember that when the fog covered the sky and the sun came, my dad was still wondering if he could go back to work after the Chinese New Year... I remember At that time, it was New Year's Eve, and he still had to go outside to patrol with other people."

"Actually, I don't know whether it's luck or misfortune. Although the fog is stable now, who knows if it will spread to the inside of the village one day...Our relatives are outside, at least they are absolutely safe."

"David," a man behind him asked him at this time: "Your family didn't go out to work, did they?"

"I have two uncles and aunts working outside." David said: "The year before the fog came, my two cousins ​​felt that they couldn't do well in school, so they also went to work outside. Labor can lighten the burden on the family. The two of them are actually quite lucky to avoid this damn fog."

Hearing this, the others fell silent.

"Aren't you jealous of them?" someone asked.

David shook his head and said, "They are my relatives, and it is the best thing to be rescued. I am too happy to be happy."

"You really have a big heart..."

"If it were me, I would be very jealous."

"There are also people who got a blessing in disguise because of the thick fog." A team member said, "For example, that bastard He Yun!"

"Exactly! Back then, Ge Niancheng, Shen Lisheng, and Su Wenxin went to work together in the city. Originally, Shen Lisheng and Su Wenxin had already talked about it, and when they had saved enough money, they came back to build a house and get married. As a result, Su Wenxin fell in love with that handsome He Yun in the city! "

As soon as they chatted about the gossip in the village, everyone became excited.

"He Yun is indeed handsome and rich. He is a doctor in a private hospital and has a high income. I still remember clearly that night Shen Lisheng brought Su Wenxin back to get engaged. During the engagement banquet, because it was near the end of the year, the village A lot of people came to eat the running water banquet at Shen Lisheng's house, but he and Yun came to snatch the marriage, and he snatched it successfully!"

"But the next day, the fog came. As a result, the two of them couldn't go back to the city, so they were trapped in the village. Shen Lisheng and Ge Niancheng, the son of the village chief, were good friends, and they didn't know Yun well in this place. , there is no status at all, but he is a doctor..."

"The village head also regards him as a guest of honor. After all, there are only a few barefoot doctors in the village clinic. But if Su Wenxin dared to have sex with this little boy, everyone would not agree. Until five years ago..."

"Okay, stop chatting. The time is almost up. According to the formation you just practiced, take the bamboo poles and point the porcelain dolls at the other end of the fog. Everyone, cheer up and be ready at any time!"

Lin Tai let the team members gossip, which also allows them to suppress their nervous emotions and get a certain degree of relief, so that they will not make mistakes in the next patrol because of nervousness.

"Well, good, Captain!"

For Lin Tai, the captain, the temporarily formed team is quite convinced of him.

Everyone gradually began to approach the white mist.

In the dark night, the white mist constantly permeates and rolls, making people feel anxious all the time.

We all know that there are unknown unknowns hidden in the fog.And those unknown things are always watching the village in the dark, causing the white mist to gradually advance into the village.

In fact, even with daily patrols, if the patrol members fail to use porcelain dolls in time to expel unknown objects in the fog, the fog may still continue to advance into the village.

But in this process, the team members often face the danger of life and death.During the process of the mist dissipating, if you are not careful, your body will touch the mist!

This is a battle that concerns the life and death of the whole village!
Most of the people in the village are middle-aged and elderly people, and there are a lot of people in their 70s and [-]s. They basically no longer have the hope of fleeing the village in their lifetime, especially those whose children work in the city. Instead, they have nothing to worry about .Now, they only hope to slow down the progress of the fog, so that they can survive until their death.

But looking at the fog in front of him, David had a different idea.

At this time, he kept a good distance between himself and the mist, picked up the bamboo pole, and pointed the end of the porcelain doll to the white mist that was close to him.

Fortunately, this piece of wasteland is not too slippery. As long as you walk with some care, then there should be no major problems.

"Okay! It's nine o'clock! Let's move!"

According to the regulations of the stele... the three hours from nine o'clock to twelve o'clock must surround the white mist at least one week.In other words, after going around for a week, they have to come back here again.Three hours, about the right time.

Everyone began to move slowly, following the rehearsal just now, carefully ensuring that they would not come into contact with the white mist.

At the same time, we must also be prepared, the white mist is rushing towards us.

"Attention, pay attention!"

"Don't just stare at the fog, look at your feet!"

"Fortunately, the road is not slippery now..."

"Hey, Captain!" A female team member suddenly asked, "Well, I...I want to ask..."

"What? Say something quickly!"

Captain Lin didn't look back.

"Fog, does it seem to have moved forward... a little? Is there? Is there?"

"That's your psychological effect!"

"Psychological effect? ​​Captain, should we step back a little to the side?"

"Don't violate the rules of that stele! Otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous!"

"I...I know..."

The girl almost cried.

David gritted his teeth, paying attention to the white mist beside him from time to time.

The fog doesn't look like it's moving forward.

And...according to what he heard, if the fog moves forward, there will definitely be movement from inside.It's just that it's hard to summarize the law of what kind of movement and movement.

at this time……

Every minute, every second seems so long, as if it will never come to an end.

Because the team is getting slower and slower, everyone's pace is different. From time to time, the people behind bump into the people in front.

"What are you doing! What if my foot slips and I fall into the fog!"

"Who made you walk so slowly!"

"What if I slip and fall when I walk fast! But why are you walking so fast!"

"Enough!" Captain Lin couldn't stand it anymore, and shouted, "Don't be ashamed! Do you have any organizational discipline?"

Lin Tai also had a headache. After all, the team's teams change every day. In this way, there is no way to get in touch with each other and cultivate their sense of teamwork.

But right now there is no other way, he can only rely on his prestige to temporarily suppress the discord within the team.

Fortunately... there is no movement in the white mist at present.

Hope this state of affairs can continue.

And David became more and more nervous because of the depressing atmosphere.

He looked at the fog and recalled the words of his third uncle back then.

"David, what's hidden in that fog...maybe...ghosts!"
