Chapter 200: Hanging the Pot to Help the World
At this moment, in the dead silence between the wailings, a cold wind suddenly blew up, blowing along the long street.
Tong Shan in the car was stunned for a moment, feeling the figures surrounding him and the terrifying pressure of the external squeezing force field, and he actually stopped where he was.
No, it was more than just stagnation, it was as if I instinctively wanted to retreat...
In the stinking cold wind, the bloodstained white clothes fluttered like a ghost.
Dancing with thirst.
The ghost lying on the hood of the engine was moving stiffly, staring blankly at the unfamiliar face, unable to make out who it was.
I couldn't see his face at all.
It was like countless figures overlapped together, sometimes like burning corpses, sometimes like evil spirits bathing in blood, sometimes rotted to reveal bones, and sometimes covered with dense stitches crisscrossing each other.
The sticky blood slowly seeped out from under the stitches, drawing a cruel arc along the joyful smile.
"You are hurt?"
Ji Jue stared at the tragic ghost, unable to suppress the joy and surprise that gradually rose in his heart.
There are actually materials that are delivered to your door?
click!
The moment he stretched out his hand, a tiny sound came from the hood, and the ghost that was originally lying there screaming and roaring actually took a step back instinctively.
"I...I didn't..."
The two facial features that were pieced together kept spasming and wriggling. In the constant surge of coldness and fear, they didn't even care about the soul and flesh that were so close to them, and wanted to give up.
No, I should say, I want to escape!
But his previous terrifying speed of appearing and disappearing without a trace and his ability to camouflage at will were completely useless at this moment!
It was like being grabbed by invisible hands.
The badge on Ji Jue's chest was shaking, like a huge rock weighing tens of thousands of tons, emitting an infinite pressure that made it impossible for him to break free. The strange power that also came from Quancheng acted here, erasing all changes.
In other words, the moment Ji Jue appeared, the rules and power it originally relied on had been completely wiped out and covered by higher-level and more terrifying rules.
It started when it dared to say "I'm injured" to the "doctor" recognized by Quancheng!
"I see……"
Ji Jue lowered his eyes, carefully feeling the strange power that was shrouding the long street at this moment, the operation of some mechanism that he did not understand. When he recalled the teachings of Director Qian in the hospital, he finally sighed.
He said, “You are sick.”
Snapped!
In an instant, along with those words, the ferocity and violence of the ghost disappeared without a trace, replaced by unprecedented fear. Even if he didn't understand what was happening, it could still make the remaining soul feel fear and madness instinctively.
"No! I I I I I didn't!!!"
The ghost on the hood was struggling frantically. It fell and smashed into a pool of blood. It used its hands and feet to try to crawl and retreat. Two mixed faces screamed, "No, no, no, no!!! Go, go, go, go! Go! Leave! Leave, leave, leave--"
The hissing sound stopped abruptly.
Because the two feet in the pool of blood were already very close.
"No, you are sick. You are very sick."
Ji Jue comforted him, and smiled tenderly on his bloodstained face: "Don't be afraid, I will cure you..."
The doctor will save the patient, the doctor will save the patient.
Yes, this is my natural responsibility.
This is the duty and responsibility that Quancheng recognizes and gives to doctors...
At that moment, amid the ghost's screams, Ji Jue pressed his palm on its face and pinned it to the ground: "Don't be afraid to see a doctor, I'm a doctor, can't you see it?
You must be ill. Your disease affects your entire body. If you don't treat it, your condition will be serious.
Come, let me have a rest—"
Snapped!
During the violent struggle, there seemed to be a cracking sound coming from the ghost's body. Ji Jue lowered his head, suppressed the ghost's struggle with one hand, looked towards the source of the cracking sound, and immediately frowned.
"His legs are broken? That's too tragic!"
He gripped the bone knife tightly and gestured at the position: "It's so serious that it has to be amputated. There's no anesthesia, so you have to bear with it."
"Well--!!!"
Under the pressure of Ji Jue's left hand, the ghost's eyes suddenly widened.
A shrill scream erupted from under his palm, and blood gushed out like a fountain. A section of his left leg was instantly cut off by the bone knife, and it fell off and rolled in a pool of blood, like a living thing.
But soon, it was wrapped by the mercury that crawled out of the toolbox, absorbed, suppressed, and blocked, and turned into thumb-sized fragments.
This time, there was no more effort and difficulty as before.
easy!
"Hey, that's not right."
Ji Jue frowned, "Don't move, it's the thigh that's broken!"
Then there was another blow of the knife, and the scream became louder again. A complete right leg fell off the ghost's body, and the spreading mercury devoured it instantly like a hungry beast.
The ghost's two faces were violently distorted, his eyes were bloodshot, and he screamed and wailed over and over again, struggling in vain.
"I've told you, don't move, don't move. Cooperate with the doctor's treatment! This is all for your own good!"
Ji Jue angrily scolded, "It's all your fault. I cut the wrong leg! I have to cut it again! Doesn't surgery cost money?! If you move again, don't blame me for cutting the wrong place out of excitement!"
“Mmm!! Mmm! Mmmmm!!”
The ghost stared blankly, unable to believe its ears. Then, as Ji Jue swung the knife, its body twitched and spasmed uncontrollably, and then it froze.
Only scarlet tears oozed out from four eyeballs, fell and merged into a pool of blood.
Ji Jue turned back hesitantly and took a look, and found that his left thigh was still there?
Then what did I just cut...Oh!!!
Ji Jue suddenly realized it, waved his hand, and the mercury was instantly absorbed.
It has been removed for the good of the patient, so it can be considered as preventing related cancers.
Although it seems useless to keep it, at least I can take it back to make wine for Lu Feng.
You must be working hard installing cameras every day to support the family. Drink something to replenish your energy!
After three attempts, he roughly understood the special status of the identity of "doctor" in Quancheng, and the rules and authority he had over these strange ghosts.
There is no limit to the means of rescuing patients.
Within the rules, he can perform any treatment he deems reasonable.
What are the triggering causes?
The first time I encountered that strange figure, the bone knife made a sound, but it was not as strong as it is now. In other words, the other party was not diagnosed as a patient.
What are the criteria for patients?
Injured? Crying? Seeking help?
Maybe both, after all, the bone knife's induction had already appeared when the other party crawled under the wheel. As long as the conditions are met, then I can act as a doctor and perform first aid and surgery.
Here comes the problem...
If the patient has a problem, the doctor can give first aid, but if the patient has no problem, can the doctor do it himself?
This one has yet to be tried, but it's no big deal.
Even if I can't send the patient to the ICU by myself, don't I still have teammates? !
Just think about it, as an honest and decent local "man", one day he was suddenly beaten up by a group of outsiders without any explanation. When he was dying, he was rescued and treated by the doctors who came to rescue him.
I don’t know how happy they must be!
Thinking about it, Ji Jue couldn't help but laugh out loud.
More importantly, he roughly understood the nature of the many strange phenomena that had formed in the highly evil environment of Quancheng over the past few decades.
Everything before our eyes is just an external appearance. In essence, it is a chaotic phenomenon formed by the despair, hatred and madness of countless residual souls gathered in the Spring City.
At best, external damage can only uproot branches and leaves on the ground without damaging the roots below. If you want to completely eradicate it, you can either use absolute power to destroy everything, turn the soil over completely, expose it to the sun, crush it, and kill it.
Otherwise, we must follow the rules and take action from within to eliminate this evil consequence!
Just like now...
Studying medicine can save the city of Quancheng!
"Oops, my internal organs are ruptured!"
Ji Jue was horrified, "Emergency surgery must be performed immediately!"
The ghost stared in horror, but before he could even react, the bone knife chopped down, cutting open his abdomen, and then, a long section of intestines was roughly pulled out by Ji Jue and removed!
"Oh, my liver isn't that good either." Ji Jue looked worried, and had no choice but to reach out his hand again.
"A ruptured lung? That's...not good."
"The heart has stopped beating! What's going on!" Ji Jue kept moving. With his natural skill, his speed was incredibly fast, just like taking out the core of a rag doll. In just two or three strokes, he completely emptied the lungs.
But the ghost is not dead yet? !
It is truly admirable that the vitality is so tenacious.
In the constant struggle, as if it had realized that it was futile, only four eyes stared at him with such hatred. But its ability was completely useless at this moment, and it could only endure and wait for the end of the treatment.
Until Ji Juedi lost his voice in shock for the umpteenth time: "Oh no, massive intracranial hemorrhage?!"
A pair of small hands naturally touched its head, and before it could react, it cut open its head with a knife!
Snapped!
Blood gushed out, staining Ji Jue's face red, but he was unaware. First aid is like this, you must seize the time and race against time!
If left untreated, the patient will soon recover!
However, in the midst of his busy schedule, he couldn't help but look up and look at the strange figure around him that was getting farther and farther away for some reason, as if it was quietly retreating...
You can feel the connection between them.
As if one.
In that case...
"Oh no! The patient has lost too much blood!"
Ji Jue frowned and shouted loudly: "Family members, please prepare to donate blood!"
In an instant, the many ghost shadows around seemed to be disturbed. They swayed and trembled violently, struggling silently as if trying to break free from their restraints.
But then, he was suppressed by an even more terrifying weight and could not move.
Stiff and flickering.
Ji Jue urged again, shouting: "The patient is about to lose his breath, what are the family members still doing? Donate blood! Donate blood! Donate blood!"
On the silent street, the sound kept echoing and overlapping, and in the end, it was like thunder.
Right in front of Ji Jue’s chest, the blood-stained work badge was shaking violently. In the end, a laughing face covered with stitches appeared under the blood.
As Ji Jue's lips opened and closed, he shouted and gave orders together.
【Donate blood】!!!
In an instant, blood appeared like a tide. Amid countless sharp screams all around, scarlet blood continuously emerged from the figure, gathered, turned into a torrent, and poured into the body of the dying patient on the ground.
Make the dying and shattered ghost regain its spirit and shine with glory.
Then, it spurted out from the wounds all over its body, spread, and was finally sucked into the fuel tank by the calf that had quietly lay beside it without leaving a drop.
It tastes good, I love it, and I want to drink it again!
The little calf flashed its headlights and urged silently: [More]!
Then, the wailing sounded again!
Then, gurgle, gurgle, gurgle…
Ten minutes later, when Ji Jue reluctantly stood up from the patient's side, the ghost on the ground had been completely hollowed out, without even the strength to wail. It was like a milk carton that had been sucked empty, dry and stiff.
Even the four eyes on his face were removed by Ji Jue to prevent presbyopia.
After donating blood seven or eight times in a row, the shadows around them also became dim and flickering, like a candle in the wind. Under the hungry headlights of the calf and horse, one after another kept backing away, waving their hands in fear.
No more, no more, really not a drop left!
After draining almost all of the ghost's soul and forcibly squeezing out the evil pollution and spiritual essence, the final result appeared in Ji Jue's hands.
Thumb-sized crystals.
After undergoing repeated purifications through fluid alchemy, it is clearly mercury, but it has a translucent texture like a gem, and is scarlet red and colorful.
He nodded with satisfaction, put it into the toolbox, and placed it together with the black iron block that was transformed into a deformed form in the workshop yesterday.
If I save more, I can make something good!
"The rescue was successful and the patient is now out of danger."
He raised his hand, wiped the blood and sweat from his forehead, took off his gloves, and announced the good news to the family members: "Now, you can pay the money."
In the dead silence, he looked eagerly at the dazed ghosts, smiling expectantly:
"Excuse me, cash or card?"
.
There was a dead silence on the long street, and everyone in the carriage had become as quiet as chickens since someone knew when.
They watched in amazement as Ji Jue laughed wildly and extracted the ghost's blood, digging out one organ after another that was condensed from spiritual essence. He literally turned a monster that was enough to cause everyone a lot of trouble into a hollow shell.
Then he turned around and started beating family members and extorting relatives.
Catch a toad and squeeze out the urine. Take everything from it except its life. Leave nothing behind except its breath of life.
Gudong.
Ji Xue swallowed dryly, turned around hesitantly, and looked at Lou Feng, unable to hide her shock:
"You Embers, all of you..."
"Only him!"
Lou Feng instinctively waved his hands frantically and retorted, "I am a normal person! No, all of us craftsmen are normal people! Except Ji Jue! How can he be a human being!"
It must be cut, cut hard!
If he doesn't cut it now, he feels that the craftsman's reputation will be dragged into the sewer by this bastard. Besides, it's only been a few days since it was repaired!
Ji Xue was silent for a long time, looked at him, then looked at Ji Jue who was laughing wildly and beating the ghost, and nodded sincerely:
"Right."
In the passenger seat, Xu Guan, who was forced to witness the whole process, turned his head stiffly, his expression twitching, and looked at Tong Shan: "Captain... I suspect he is a member of the evil cult..."
Tong Shan remained silent, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.
He actually really wanted to nod and tell him: I suspect it too, but I have no evidence.
But in the end, he just patted Xu Guan on the shoulder and said comfortingly: "Look at the bright side, he is much more evil than the evil cult, right?"
"..."
Xu Guan had nothing to say and silently deleted this paragraph from the record book.
In silence, the car door opened.
Amidst the mess on the ground, Ji Jue, feeling refreshed, returned to the car, sat down, drank a large bottle of water in gulps, and then let out a long sigh.
"Phew! I'm sweating..."
He wiped his face and looked around, confused, "Well, what's wrong with everyone? Why aren't you talking?"
"No, nothing... nothing... nothing..."
After a burst of stressed-out excuses, Ji Liu coughed and looked away, "Maybe I'm tired, everyone is tired, right?"
Immediately, the response was overwhelming: “Ah, yes, yes, yes!”
"That's right!"
"I'm so tired and have a headache!"
"Let's go! Let's go! We can't stay here for long!"
Just like that, the vehicle that had been stopped for a long time started again.
It rolled over the mess on the ground and the ghost figure struggling to get up in the middle of the road, and disappeared into the distance with a series of refreshing cracking sounds.
Proceed in this way.
Travel through a dark, maze-like world.
After a long, long time, light finally appeared ahead.
A shadow like a barrier emerged from the darkness, and a searchlight shone in this direction.
Human figures can be vaguely seen running on the high wall.
"finally reached."
As everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Ji Liu stepped on the brakes and finally relaxed a little.
Ahead, the permanent exploration team’s base.
Someone raised a gun.
