Chapter 84 – Three People Make a Tiger 20
Xu RenDong moved his thoughts and left Zhong Xiu’s dream.
Back in the room again, Xu RenDong felt like he was in a trance. He hadn’t been able to recover from the hopeless and helpless mood in Zhong Xiu’s dream.
Zhong Xiu was still sleeping peacefully. It was unknown what she was dreaming about but there was a smile at the corners of her mouth. Xu RenDong couldn’t smile. He woke up Zhong Xiu and told her what had happened.
Zhong Xiu looked at the empty big bed next to her and asked, “Is it just me?”
Xu RenDong: “Yes.”
Zhong Xiu breathed a sigh of relief: “Fortunately I’m still here, otherwise you won’t be able to get out. “
Xu RenDong was taken aback. Zhong Xiu said: “If you are the only one left in the end, how can you control yourself so as to find the elevator in your dream?”
Only then did Xu RenDong realize the problem. Yes, if everyone was gone then Xu RenDong was the only one who could save himself. But he couldn’t stay conscious inside his own dream and, just like Zhong Xiu, he wouldn’t be able to find the elevator.
Then he will be trapped in this instance forever. All his efforts would be lost.
Seeing Xu RenDong’s grave face, Zhong Xiu reassured him: “Let’s try again. This time it will definitely work.”
Xu RenDong had no other choice but to agree.
This time, Zhong Xiu took a long time to fall asleep. Xu RenDong was also drowsy after waiting for so long. After finally waiting for Zhong Xiu to fall asleep, he went into the bathroom and poured cold water on his face before entering Zhong Xiu’s dream.
It was different from before. This dream made him feel much brighter and less depressed than earlier. Xu RenDong opened his eyes and saw a long corridor. The hallways were bright and clean and the tiles have been cleaned spotless. There were many rooms on either side of the corridor. Xu RenDong thought it looked familiar, and immediately realized that this was the hospital.
He passed the nurse’s station and the doctor’s office and found no one inside. There was a wall clock on the wall of the nurse’s station, which showed that the time was two in the morning. At this time, everything was silent except for the lights in the corridor, all the wards were pitch black and it was unknown if anyone was inside.
Where was Zhong Xiu?
Xu RenDong thought back. He remembered that, in the real world, Zhong Xiu lived in the emergency room facing the nurse station. The emergency room was easy to recognize as it had a large transparent glass door which made it convenient for nurses and doctors to check the patient’s condition at any time.
Xu RenDong quickly arrived at the rescue room but the scene inside surprised him.
He saw that the emergency rescue room was occupied by a huge red piece of meat. The piece of meat filled the room and the blood vessels on the surface of the piece of meat could be seen crisscrossing through the glass. This thing seemed to be alive, pulsing slightly. You could smell the stench of hot air from it through the glass.
Xu RenDong frowned. On the side of the hallway was a cart with some first aid medicines on it. Xu RenDong found a pair of scissors in the cart drawer. After thinking about it, he put on gloves and a mask and then walked towards the emergency room.
The chunk of meat had completely blocked the door to the emergency room. Xu RenDong aimed at the slightly pulsating meat ball and stabbed it with a pair of scissors. The piece of meat shrank suddenly in pain but its entire body was stuck in the rescue room, unable to move, so Xu RenDong had to cut at it.
Xu RenDong cut a few cuts and found that the piece of meat was not solid. It is closer to a sac, with elastic muscle on the surface and was fluid-filled inside. Xu RenDong poked it with scissors and the bag was broken. The scarlet liquid spurted out instantly, Xu RenDong couldn’t dodge in time and was splashed all over his face. Fortunately he was wearing a mask, otherwise it would be a bloody scene.
The red liquid was pouring out of the meat sac. It was unknown what that liquid was, but it was thinner than blood and it is mixed with many floc-like impurities, giving off a strong stench. Xu RenDong was too lazy to figure out what it was. He wore gloves and opened the opening to allow the liquid inside to flow out faster. The scarlet stinky liquid quickly pooled on the ground, making it sticky and disgusting. Xu RenDong took out his flashlight and looked inside.
“Zhong Xiu?”
The meat sac was sticky, with blood vessels and minced meat everywhere. Through the dense muscle fibers, Xu RenDong saw a woman in a hospital gown in the middle of the meat sac, which was Zhong Xiu. He was overjoyed but, when the flashlight illuminated her body, Xu RenDong was taken aback again.
He saw countless blood vessels connected to her body like a red spider web, tightly wrapping her in it. On the red spider web, there were countless white things twisting and crawling slowly.
What was that? Maggots?
Xu RenDong was so shocked by this scene that he was speechless. He stabilized his mind and looked intently, only to realize that the white things were not maggots but pills.
Round pills with blood on them. For some reason, they seemed to be alive, slowly wriggling on Zhong Xiu. Wherever he passed, the smoke rose up like a scorching fire, and there was a burnt smell in the air.
Where the pills crawled, the red cobwebs quickly turned gray and withered, falling down in small pieces. But soon the surrounding blood vessels grew wildly again, quickly filling the previous gaps and the new spider webs were even denser than before. So more pills rushed there, more flesh was scorched and the entire meat sac was almost filled with scorched mist.
Zhong Xiu, who was in the center of the meat sac, had a pale face, her eyes were tightly closed and her face was full of pain.
Xu RenDong finally understood that this nightmare originated from Zhong Xiu’s cancer. It is a portrayal of her struggle with the disease.
This huge chunk of flesh was the tumor which constantly sucked nutrients from her through the fine blood vessels. The pills were chemotherapy drugs which killed off tumor cells and caused huge damage to her body.
Zhong Xiu was inside it and her body was the battlefield.
Was it true that she has been in such pain all her life? From when she was a child up until now?
What evil did she do in her last life that she had to suffer so much in this life?
Xu RenDong was silent for a moment. He turned around and looked for a handy tool on the treatment car. Soon, he found a scalpel. He tore the crack in the meat sac wide then took a deep breath and got into the meat sac.
As soon as you enter, a strong stench blows in your face. This was the smell of raw meat mixed with blood and water that had been fermented for a week in the power-off refrigerator and the mask couldn’t stop it. The stench was like a drill bit, moving all the way through his nostrils and through the cover of his brain. Xu RenDong was blackened by the smoke and it took a while to get used to the stench. He clenched his nose and forced his way forward in the flesh sac.
Under his feet were soft pieces of meat, which was slippery and sticky when he stepped on it. It was easy to sleep if he was not careful. Xu RenDong used a scalpel to cut open the blood vessels that were in the way,but the blood vessels were like magic vines in fairy tales. After cutting one, more roots came forward, almost entangling Xu RenDong. Fortunately, Xu RenDong was quick-witted and cut off as many as possible before being entangled by blood vessels.
After a long time, he finally arrived at Zhong Xiu.
There were several thick blood vessels on Zhong Xiu’s body, which drilled out from her neck, collarbone, chest and abdomen. Those blood vessels are pulsing slightly, like bright red snakes, intertwined with each other intricately. Xu RenDong did not dare to touch these blood vessels rashly. After thinking about it, he twisted up a white tablet and put it on one of the blood vessels.
Immediately there was a sharp pain from his fingertips. Xu RenDong looked down and saw that the tablet actually corroded the gloves and burned a small brown scar on the pulp of his finger. Xu RenDong waved his hand and let the blue smoke from his fingertips dissipate. The sharp burning pain still stayed on the fingertips, lingering.
What pain? He didn’t have time for pain right now!
Xu RenDong narrowed his eyes and ignored the burn on his hand. He continued to put the pills on the blood vessels. The burnt smell in the air became heavier, not only from Xu RenDong’s hands, but also from the red snake-like blood vessels on Zhong Xiu’s body. As soon as the blood vessels met the pills, they seemed to have been stripped of their vitality and immediately turned gray and withered, like dead wood. The gray-white blood vessel web peeled off piece by piece and it didn’t take long for Zhong Xiu to fall off the spider web and was caught by Xu RenDong.
“Hey.” Xu RenDong called out but felt his words were inappropriate so he changed them. “Zhong Xiu, wake up.”
Zhong Xiu leaned against his arm, slowly opened her eyes and raised her head weakly to look at him. Then she asked angrily: “Who are you…?”
Xu RenDong was slightly startled. It turns out that Zhong Xiu in this dream doesn’t know him?
No problem, just find the elevator.
Xu RenDong thought about it and decided to continue to play the perverted murderer. He touched Zhong Xiu’s cheek with the scalpel, rubbed the blood on her face and said sullenly, “You don’t know me but I want to play a game with you…”
Zhong Xiu: “Don’t make trouble, I’m so tired.”
Xu RenDong: “???”
Zhong Xiu pushed him, slipped down from his arms and sat softly on the ground. The flesh on the ground was still squirming and Zhong Xiu frowned slightly, as if she disliked the blood and stained her hospital gown. She only heard a low sigh: “I’m going to trouble the nurse again…”
Xu RenDong felt that his identity as a murderer had been insulted and he rudely kicked Zhong Xiu with his toes: “Hey, do you think I’m joking? Do you want me to make you suffer a little…”
Zhong Xiu interrupted him lazily: “If you want to kill, just kill me. Stop with all this nonsense.”
Xu RenDong: “…” I have played the perverted murderer so many times and you are the first to talk to me like that!
Xu RenDong was speechless for a while. Staying in the meat sac like this was not the way so he grabbed Zhong Xiu and, ignoring her resistance, carried her outside the rescue room. Just after leaving the emergency room, Zhong Xiu fell to the ground again with a clatter. She did not seem to want to pay mind to him at all.
“Where’s the nurse?” Zhong Xiu glanced at the nurse station and turned to ask Xu RenDong.
Xu RenDong sneered: “I killed them all.”
Zhong Xiu was stunned and frowned. Xu RenDong was about to threaten her that if she didn’t cooperate then she would also end up like that but then Zhong Xiu took out a pair of scissors from the cart, shot over like electricity and plunged into Xu RenDong’s calf with a puff.
Xu RenDong: “???” What?! You want to stab me?!
Frightened, he quickly took two steps back and pulled the scissors out of his legs. Relying on his being the dream boss, the wound on his calf healed quickly. Although the pain was not painful, Zhong Xiu’s blow caused huge damage to his heart. So much so that when Zhong Xiu stood up holding the scissors, he felt a little scared.
“They are all good girls.” Zhong Xiu’s voice was choked and the blackness in her eyes deepened, “Why do you want to harm them?”
Everything around them seemed to be affected by some kind of induction,and they all trembled slightly. She just leaned against the wall and stood softly and weakly, but her body exuded a strong murderous aura, which was terrifying.
Xu RenDong heard a soft sound behind him and he subconsciously tilted his head to avoid it. The moment he turned his head, he saw a scalpel flying past his cheek and the blade cut a small hole in his face. Xu RenDong was startled by the cold pain.
At the same time, all kinds of sharp objects flew from all directions. Blades, needles, scissors, all medical supplies and even blood on them. As if attracted by a magnetic field, these sharp objects all flew to Zhong Xiu. Zhong Xiu held a bone saw and walked staggeringly towards Xu RenDong.
…Lady, you’ve got the wrong script!
Xu RenDong was shocked and subconsciously wanted to run but then he thought that he was the actual boss. What was he afraid of, he just had to go up and confront her!
So he picked up a metal bench near him and smashed it at Zhong Xiu aggressively.
The next second.
Bang-bang-bang.
The metal bench was cut in half and fell to the ground. What fell after that was Xu RenDong’s half arm.
Xu RenDong: “…” Let’s run!
He clutched the bleeding half of his arm, feeling extremely desolate in his heart.
What crime have I done!
Xu RenDong moved his thoughts and left Zhong Xiu’s dream.
Back in the room again, Xu RenDong felt like he was in a trance. He hadn’t been able to recover from the hopeless and helpless mood in Zhong Xiu’s dream.
