I Forged the Myth of the Old Ones

Lu Jian turned his head and quickly came to the third floor.

At this time, he turned his head and saw the staggering mark, and he didn't know when it had extended behind him.

Moreover, the imprint just spread to his shoes, trousers, and white coat.

Lu Jian saw that behind the white coat, there was a small handprint at some point.

Lifting the clothes, Lu Jian didn't feel any abnormal weight.

He frowned slightly, and was about to continue going upstairs when he heard a sharp grinding sound.

Lu Yi looked at the source of the sound, it was a person walking slowly in the corridor, but he was not wearing a doctor's white coat, nor was he a nurse.

The man was wearing overalls, carrying a shovel, and wearing a faded yellow hard hat.

Although his face was tattered and decayed, he could vaguely distinguish a certain appearance.

Lu Yi immediately recognized that this person was the leader of the missing construction team, Liu Qingjiang.

"Why is he here, and why has he become like this?"

Lu Jian saw that Liu Qingjiang dragged the shovel and walked slowly to the side of the corridor, and stopped at the door of a room, and then walked in.

After waiting for a while, there was no sound.

Lu Jian decided to take a look.

Ask for a recommendation ticket, a monthly ticket!

===142. The Man in the Wall===

Before entering the room at the end of the corridor on the fifth floor, it is of course better to collect as much information as possible.

Liu Qingjiang was the person in charge of the previous demolition. On the day when the demolition was suspended, he was on duty and disappeared. According to the last notes, he saw the room at the end of the corridor on the fifth floor was lit, so he went to check it, and then disappeared.

It is easy to imagine that this Liu Qingjiang may have seen something on the fifth floor to end up in this way.

Lu Jian can probably sum up some rules now.

First of all, if you take the stairs, you may encounter a baby-shaped thing following you, leaving footprints. Maybe, when it follows you to the fifth floor, something bad will happen. From here, the missing person Nurse Xu Xiao didn't lie.

Secondly, everyone who has seen the things in the room at the end of the corridor on the fifth floor is missing, but Lu Jian suspects that they are not missing, but are bound in this different space, just like the sentence in the mission description, these missing The people did not die, they just existed in this hospital in a different way.

And maybe the passage entrance to the two spaces is in the room on the fifth floor.

So, why does this space exist?

Lu Jian found that there seemed to be only Liu Qingjiang and him on this floor, so he walked lightly, and he came to the door of the room where Liu Qingjiang entered, and peeked inside.

At this glance, Lu Jian saw Liu Qingjiang's dead eyes staring at him.

No, he wasn't staring at Lu Lian, but was staring out of the window.

For the appearance of Lu Jian, Liu Qingjiang was indifferent.

He looked outside for a while, then picked up the shovel and shoveled it on the ground.

The concrete floor was shoveled to the point of being pitted, and a small hole appeared.

After digging like this for a while, Liu Qingjiang put the gravel in a cement bag, put it on his shoulders, walked out of the room slowly, and returned along the original road.

Lu Jian stood against the wall, without saying a word, holding his breath, watching Liu Qingjiang follow the steps with the cement bag on his shoulders.

"What is he digging for?"

Seeing Liu Qingjiang walking away, Lu Jian immediately entered the room and looked towards the pothole on the ground.

He saw that there were human corpses in the hole in the middle of the huge ward.

Those people look plain, just like ordinary people everywhere.

But the corpses were already fragmented, and Lu Jian didn't even think that these corpses could be made into a complete human form.

More importantly, Lu Jian found that the faces of these people did not rot, and still maintained the appearance when they died just now, and they were the workers who died in an accident here before!

In addition to those workers, there were other faces that Lu Lian didn't recognize, but he could also deduce that they must have also suffered some kind of unlucky accident in the hospital.

"Did Liu Qingjiang dig up these corpses just now? Did he dig them out of the floor?"

Lu Yi suddenly felt a chill coming from his chest, and he found that it was the notebook with the red cover.

He hurriedly opened it, and he saw that on the last page of the notebook, which was stained by muddy water, black text began to emerge, which was different from Xu Xiao's handwriting, very correct and meticulous.

"It's very cold, but the construction is not going well. There is something wrong with the soil structure here. The foundation is always not well laid, the steel bars are easy to crooked, and the cement can't be poured. It's too difficult to see the construction period passing by day by day. Those foreigners rely on If I have a lot of money, I will use people around, and those fake foreign devils are not good people, alas, if I didn’t give too much money, I wouldn’t take this order.”

"I heard from the locals that this used to be Caishikou, the place where beheads were killed. The executioner took a sip of wine and sprayed it on the knife, and the crowd below applauded. , A human head fell to the ground, and the crowd applauded. The blood of that head seeped into the ground day after day, and the resentment of those who were beheaded lived here, so the things built on it were not long."

"I'm not superstitious. I've investigated the geological data. Because this place used to be a river, the soil was mostly sedimentary soil. Later, the Lingjiang River was diverted, and this place became land. So the soil is loose, which is not conducive to construction. I want to build a five-story building. For the hospital, the foundation must be strengthened, and I am an architect graduated from Jiangcheng University, so these problems are not difficult for me."

"However, the difficulty of construction here is obviously beyond my expectation. The designed structure may not be realized in reality. The foundation has always been poorly laid. After a long time, only one-third of it is finished. The workers are getting more and more irritable every day. , All kinds of gossips are spreading indiscriminately.”

"The turning point of things came on the second day of the new year. Some workers who stayed here on duty on New Year's Day fell on the construction site for some reason. When they slipped, they fell into the foundation that had just been laid. The sticky The cement swallowed the worker in one fell swoop, and I hurried to get someone to fish him out, but the foreman next to me stopped me."

"He said that the foundation was laid with great difficulty. If people were to be recruited by hand, the whole structure would have to be redone. If we redo it now, it would definitely not be able to keep up with the construction period, and everyone would work for nothing. Moreover, after he finished talking, he said to me mysteriously, Now that the worker falls into it, it is a living pile. There is a lot of yin here, and it must be suppressed by human energy. gone."

"I don't understand how this kind of feudal superstition is so deep-rooted. I asked people to fish for the worker, but no one dared to move, for fear that I would also fall into it. Seeing that the cement was solidified, I had no choice but to give up. After all, no one dared to move. They can’t afford to pay for delays.”

"It's strange to say that since the worker died in the foundation, the work of laying the foundation has become much smoother, and almost no problems have been encountered. All the foundations have been paved and the construction is on track."

"I have never believed in these things, and I can't help but have some doubts, whether there is really a saying about living people."

"Until the Chinese New Year, we encountered the problem of the main load-bearing beam. The construction progress was delayed, the workers went home again, and the work came to a standstill. I walked on the construction site and looked at the main load-bearing beam that was still not built. , very upset."

"I saw a worker standing next to the load-bearing beam and pouring cement into it. It was very strange. I obviously didn't let them pour it. I called him, and the worker seemed to be taken aback. He slipped and fell. into the cement."

"I ran over immediately and grabbed his hand. He asked me for help. Most of his body was sunk in the cement. He pulled me desperately. I couldn't hold on anymore. He hurt me so much that I was about to fall in. I yelled for help, but there were not many people on the construction site at that time."

"I just grabbed him like this, I don't know how long it took, and then, suddenly, the words of the foreman appeared in my mind, the living pile, the worker has been mostly sunk in the cement, and he can't even grab my hand. No more, I just let go and he'll fall."

"I have tried my best, I have tried my best, I am not wrong, and as long as he sinks, the living pile, the living pile, the hospital will be built, everyone will get the money, I think so, let go hand."

"I just watched him sink, and suddenly felt extremely relaxed. After calling the police, I went to the bathroom and looked in the mirror. I found that I was laughing."

"The construction of the hospital was completed, I got a good salary, and the families of the dead workers got a huge sum of money that they couldn't earn in their lifetime. Everyone's life is better, but sometimes I think, when I When I walked into this hospital and stood beside those pillars, would the people inside those pillars also smile at me?"

Lu Jian saw that these words were no longer correct at the end, more like they were written by people suffering from epilepsy or physical diseases.

Sensing some movement, Lu Yi lifted his eyes from the notebook.

He saw Liu Qingjiang standing at the door holding a shovel.

===143. Breaking Superstition===

Liu Qingjiang's face was pale, swollen, and a little bloodshot. He was wearing a hard hat, and the shovel was dragged by his side. He looked at the center of the pothole, and at Lu stumbled in the center of the pothole.

Liu Qingjiang raised his hand, held the shovel high, and then smashed it down.

Lu Juan dodged to the side when he raised the shovel, clenched the crowbar tightly in his hand, and at the same time the 【Last Word】had been loaded.

However, Liu Qingjiang's shovel fell into the gap between those heads, cracking the ground, and the aged cement turned into gravel and rubble, which was scooped up by the shovel and pushed aside.

Afterwards, Liu Qingjiang raised the shovel again and repeated the action just now, seemingly not noticing the existence of Lu Lian.

"He can't see me?"

Lu Jian stood diagonally opposite Liu Qingjiang, with his back against the wall, motionless.

Liu Qingjiang just shoveled one shovel after another, dug up the ground, and dug out the corpses of the workers inside.

"The designer of this hospital was a foreigner. He committed suicide after the design was completed. The head of the construction team seemed to be mentally tortured. They used workers who died accidentally to make living piles to try to suppress something. , but does it really work?"

Lu Jian is also someone who has seen all kinds of weird and strange things and evil gods in foreign lands. In his opinion, the custom of living piles should be mostly serious feudal customs.

If there were to be those ghosts and ghosts, they would not be afraid of the living, but would they be afraid of you dead?

If you want to talk about ghosts and ghosts, these workers were killed by you so much that they couldn't even bury their bodies in the ground, and they would be sealed in cement forever. If it was Lu Jian, he wouldn't make trouble every night, seek revenge on the people who buried him, why should he help you? Protect the hospital?

The so-called "living pile" is probably the result of another ceremony, and the purpose may not be to suppress something, but to summon something.

Ceremonies of evil gods in various foreign lands cannot escape the sacrifice of living people. Only death and the fragrance of souls can attract these strange, evil and indescribable existences.

"The missing people seem to have entered this different space. Is this the other world?"

Lu Jian thought of the setting in the horror game he played before. In that game, human beings are likely to enter another world due to the influence of supernatural forces. One of them is the inner world, which is full of abnormalities and monsters, which is very dangerous. .

"It can be seen that after they entered here, they may have survived for a while, but with the erosion, they all eventually alienated into monsters, and these monsters seemed to act according to their obsessions in life. Liu Qingjiang felt guilty because the workers died , so you want to dig out the remains of the workers, and Xu Xiao wants to escape from here, so you have been asking for help at the nurse's station?"

He saw Liu Qingjiang dig up a pile of soil, put it in a cement bag, drag it and leave the room, his movements were stiff, like a machine that had been in disrepair for a long time.

"As for the doctor just now, maybe he was obsessed with the failure of the operation or other things during his lifetime, so after entering here by mistake, he also repeated his original work?"

Lu Jian thought of the doctor in obstetrics and gynecology.

However, new questions emerged.

"Wait, but there should be no obstetrics and gynecology department in this hospital, so where did this obstetrician and gynecologist come from?"

Lu Yi began to suspect that the obstetrics and gynecology department of this hospital had hidden secrets, which might be closely related to the deepest secrets of this hospital.

"The kind of private doctor who gives birth to rich people?"

He thought that some doctors would secretly deliver babies to the rich. Some were stars in the sky, some were mistresses of rich people, mistresses, and some even darker and unethical illegitimate children.

"No, it shouldn't be that simple. This hospital was built with living piles, and the living piles should be part of some kind of ceremony. The designer who designed this hospital committed suicide. The investment in this hospital Or it is a foreigner and overseas Chinese chamber of commerce, that is to say, this hospital may have been established for a certain purpose from the beginning?"

Lu Jian left the room and stood by the wall by the window. The world outside the window was pitch black, and he couldn't see anything.

"Moreover, judging from the situation just now, there should be more than one or two missing people in the hospital, and many more people are lost here. However, with such a large number of missing cases, it is impossible for the police not to intervene in the investigation. According to the information Song Yunyan gave me , Nanhua Private Renji Hospital has not been subject to similar investigations.”

He saw Liu Qingjiang entering the room again, digging continuously, and then leaving with the rubble, but the hole was getting bigger and bigger, but he couldn't dig it to the end, as if it had life.

"From the perspective of the outside world, I should have disappeared now. If I want to get out, I have to unlock the secrets of this hospital."

Lu Jian saw that two hours had passed since he came in, and it was still early before six o'clock.

"Where will the melodic fragments of Du Danping be?"

He walked through the corridor and saw the nurse's station on this floor.

In the nurse's station, a nurse was sitting. The nurse's hands were empty, as if she was knitting a sweater, but in fact there was nothing there. There were only two holes left on her rotten face, and even her eyeballs. She just sat there numbly. , as if nothing has changed.
