List of strange talismans

Chapter 10 Sprouting
"You see, your mental state is not quite right now."

The doctor pointed at Gu Xiuya and shook his head repeatedly: "You'd better have an examination and take some medicine. I'll open a green channel for you, and you can reduce the fee."

"no need."

Gu Xiuya interrupted him: "Discharge me from the hospital."

"...Young man, your left hand is missing so much that it's basically disabled. It's not a good idea to leave the hospital now."

The doctor glanced down at Gu Xiuya's bandaged left hand, and said.

"Can it be cured by staying?"

"Hey, our academy doesn't have the strength for now."

The doctor coughed: "However, I saw a new technology at a surgical seminar. That technology can use DNA carried by blood to grow new limbs to replace disabled parts without any rejection."

"The only problem is that this technology is still in phase I clinical trials, and if you want to experience it, you may have to pay a little extra."

Gu Xiuya heard the smell: "What do you want to say?"

"Well, I have to tell you one thing first, your very big cat, the heart has stopped beating."

The doctor spoke slowly, watching Gu Xiuya's reaction while talking, as if he was worried that the news would make the patient in front of him go crazy again.

There was no surprise in Gu Xiuya's eyes, he just said lightly: "Understood, give me its body, and I will take it with me."

"Listen to what I have to say."

The doctor said: "Although its heart has stopped beating, its brain is still active. In other words, from the perspective of consciousness alone, it is still alive."

"This is a very rare condition with high research value. If you are willing to provide its remains for medical excision, I can use my personal connections to put you in touch with 'those people' and heal your hand."

"It's really a good deal to exchange a dead pet with another hand. You should try hard."

Gu Xiuya got off the bed, lifted his collar, and dragged him out of the ward.

"roll."

"Cough cough."

The doctor staggered and stood still, and wanted to persuade him again, but when he saw Gu Xiuya's expressionless face, he felt a little fear for this young man who was 20 years younger than him.

"You, if you regret it, you can make this call."

He took out a business card and put it on the doorknob, then left without looking back.

Gu Xiuya grabbed the business card and was about to throw it away, but frowned slightly when he saw the name.

Shang Ming seems to have heard it somewhere.

Without thinking about it, he threw away the business card and began to change clothes.

This movement inevitably involved the wound on his left hand, Gu Xiuya felt a little itchy on the back of his palm, pressed it through the gauze, and found that it didn't hurt, he was a little surprised.

After hesitating for a moment, he removed the bandage wrapper.

One layer, two layers When the last layer of gauze was peeled off, Gu Xiuya saw an extremely horrifying scene.

His hand.Sprouted.

The slender vines twisted on the wound, entangled to weave the outline of half of the palm.

The dark red rhizome slowly squirmed, blood flowed in it, and gradually pieces of flesh were spit out, hanging on it like fruits, densely packed.

Gu Xiuya stared straight at his hands, as if distracted, and after a long while silently restored the gauze to its original state, picked up the things and walked out of the ward.

Gu Xiuya sat in the taxi, looked at the exotic buildings outside the window, and then his eyes fell on the smart screen in the back seat of the car.

The development of this world is very different from the previous life. There has never been a real unification in history. This situation continues to this day, creating hundreds of countries in the world.

and their respective religions.

Different beliefs have brought countless contradictions, and conflicts and wars are the most common news in this world.

Fortunately, people yearn for peace after all.

With the development of modernization, peace has been put on the negotiating table under the general trend.The undercurrent is gradually being covered up under the prosperity, and only the numbers that occasionally appear on the news are highlighting some unknown stories.

The place where he lived before was a big country called White Star. Due to its vast territory and strong national power, it was considered one of the safest countries in the world.

Its territory is roughly equal to a province in the previous life.

"Sir, Elton City is here. It's next to Central Park."

The driver stopped the car and reminded.

Gu Xiuya responded, took out the banknotes he had just exchanged for a gold coin at a gold shop, paid the fare, grabbed the big blue woven bag beside him and got out of the taxi.

Inside the bag were the 'remains' of the tap water.

The doctor wasn't lying, the tap water was dead.

The inactivated cells were decomposed by microorganisms during the oxidation reaction, and the smell of rotting flesh made people around frown for a while.

But Gu Xiuya could feel that the heat flow he delivered to the big cat's body was still highly active. These heat flows protected the brain of the tap water. They passed over the body and independently and continuously supplied nutrients to the brain, allowing the tap water to temporarily resist real death.

The good news is that this situation can be maintained with money.

Gu Xiuya unzipped the zipper and looked inside the bag.

In just an hour, the ten catties of pork he had just bought had collapsed in one piece, like a cake that had been eaten away, with only one layer of skin left.

Some tiny tentacles began to pull out from the meat, wobbly returned to the mouth of the tap water, and disappeared between the teeth.

As the monster in Gu Xiuya's body changed, the heat flow in the body of the tap water also transformed into a similar appearance.

This vine-like tentacles seem to be able to absorb certain substances in the flesh, establish a new nutrient circulation system for the host, and provide the nutrients needed for activities.

Tap water can survive, all thanks to this.

The bad news is that Gu Xiuya doesn't know how long this situation can last.

At present, it seems that the heat flow after separation does not have the ability to weave flesh and reshape the body.So he must find a way to completely cure the tap water as soon as possible.

Gu Xiuya put his hope on that ancient gold coin, he had a vague feeling that as long as he saw the 'knowledge' on the gold coin, he would be able to get a cure for tap water.

This kind of thought came up shortly after seeing the knowledge, Gu Xiuya couldn't explain the reason, but somehow felt that it made sense.

He attributed this feeling to some hidden enlightenment, like the branch reminding him of the monster inside him.

Perhaps, there are really gods in this world.

Gu Xiuya walked into the rented community.

This used to be a well-known high-end community in Elton City. The most prosperous commercial pedestrian street is 800 meters away. The surrounding hospitals, schools, churches and other supporting facilities are complete.

But now it's old, and old things are always hated.

The community has been built for 30 years, and all kinds of facilities are beginning to age. Except for those who can’t move and those who don’t want to move, the only people living here are young migrant workers.

At this time, the night was getting late. Usually at this time, the community was very quiet. Except for the occasional security guards, there were hardly any people walking around.

But today it was noisy.

Gu Xiuya saw many people gathered around the three buildings in the community, blocking the elevator he was about to take.

Next to the crowd were two SUVs with sirens flashing, but they didn't look like police cars.

The blue and white isolation belt surrounds the entrance hall and pulls it all the way to the flower bed.

The flash fluctuated with the sound of the shutter, lighting up the dimly lit hallway after the power outage, faintly illuminating the dark red bloodstains on the ground.
