I Upended Yet Another Campus Urban Legend

Lin Yi immediately rolled over from the narrow bed, patient 203 was still awake, he looked in front of the door of the ward, and a faint blue light came in through the crack at the bottom of the door.

Several rows of comb jellyfish have such an iridescent sheen. When the creature preys, it wraps its prey with serrated tentacles and then cuts off a large piece of meat from the prey.

And now such tentacles are slowly coming in from the bottom of the door.

Lin Yi took a few steps back. He stared at the tentacles that came in from under the crack of the door. Fortunately, the tentacles of the comb jellyfish were not long enough to be completely submerged in the ward.

Only halfway, use the sensory nerves on the tentacles to test back and forth in the air.

Lin Yi stared at these tentacles.

If Shi Xuan only appeared in Ward 203...

So who is she trying to eat? Or, who can she eat?

Is it patient 203 or him?

npc can only kill at night, and the premise is that those involved meet the death rules. But is Shi Xuan an NPC now? She is dead and not dead, her body is still alive. When Lin Yi brought her bread, she was breathing.

The involved person can't kill the involved person, nor can he kill the npc, but can Shi Xuan still be the involved person? The high probability can't be counted. She no longer thinks about how to leave the rule world, and even when she is hungry, she is no longer afraid of dangerous nights and runs to forage.

Shi Xuan exists like a living dead, Lin Yi is not sure what she is now. But one thing is certain, this is the 16-8 rule world, and the things that exist in the rule world must be beneficial to the 16-8 monster.

For example, in a situation where all involved know that leaving the patient is dangerous, the 16-8 monster hidden between them will certainly not leave the patient.

So the greatest value of the existence of the living dead to the 16-8 monster is to help it kill those involved in trying to break the rules of the world.

16-8 The monster knows everything about the rules of the world, and it also knows the habits of these regenerated animals. With a little bit of hands and feet, it can easily solve the troublers.

For example, throwing a piece of meat in front of ward 203 can attract Shi Xuan who is in the state of comb jellyfish to ward 203.

It is probably the people involved in the 16-8 rule world that are eaten.

However, Lin Yi doesn't feel that he has been targeted by the 16-8 monster. Since entering the world of 16-8 rules, Lin Yi and Qin Zhou can only rely on notes to communicate with others. The entrants had no contact, and Qin Zhou stopped even the first self-introduction session.

Just like Lin Yi didn't know the other involved at all, the other involved didn't know him either, maybe they didn't even know Lin Yi's name.

Because there is no contact, even if there is a death rule as a basis, neither he nor Qin Zhou can guarantee that the 16-8 monster is Wen Xiaoyan who takes care of the 202 patient. Then the 16-8 monsters hiding among the involved won't find out they've got multiple leads.

Even if the 16-8 monster has the memory of the involved person, Lin Yi did not have any contact with the other involved person in the real world. According to the habit of monsters who like to kill smart people, that is to kill Qin Zhou first, and it is impossible to target Lin Yi.

The reason why Shi Xuan came to Ward 203 to ask for food for herself, Lin Yi guessed that she was contaminated with some kind of smell when she was in the morgue, which attracted Shi Xuan in the state of comb jellyfish.

Lin Yi looked at Shi Xuan and always felt that Shi Xuan had not yet become a complete record of the comb jellyfish. Zheng Anjian also had a little earthworm state after a day and a night. Shi Xuan was last night If it dies or mutates, it should take time.

Lin Yi breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't let it out completely.

If Wen Xiaoyan is a 16-8 monster, the patient she takes care of is 202, which is next door to him. Lin Yi and Qin Zhou left the three-story building tonight without making any noise, but Shi Xuan came.

Shi Xuan's stay in Ward 203 was noisy. If Wen Xiaoyan was a 16-8 monster, he must know that meat can attract Shi Xuan in the state of comb jellyfish, and he can also hear Shi Xuan in The noise made outside Ward 203.

Wen Xiaoyan will definitely be suspicious.

Lin Yi watched the tentacles swaying in the air for a while, then turned and went back to the compartment.

If the living dead only prey on those involved, he can't get too close to the tentacles. The action of the comb jellyfish basically relies on the sensory system of the tentacles. The longer Lin Yi stayed in front of the door, the tentacles that Shi Xuan stretched into the ward could sense the smell on his body and refused to leave.

Lin Yi sat on the narrow bed again. He didn't worry about Shi Xuan breaking the door for the time being, otherwise he opened the door for Shi Xuan at first, and Shi Xuan could eat him directly.

He guessed that Shi Xuan was too hungry, so he kept testing with his tentacles, and when the smell of him in the air dissipated, Shi Xuan would also leave.

Sure enough, Xuan left soon after.

Listening to the footsteps of Shi Xuan leaving, Lin Yi lay down.

The situation is a little bit bleak and urgent. People who die every night will mutate into regenerative animals. It should be that the longer the time of death, the more mature the mutation will be. What will happen when the involved person completely mutates into a regenerative animal? Lin Yi is in some horror disaster movies. Seen.

He recalled the ten regenerative animals that Qin Zhou mentioned. The most terrifying of these ten regenerative animals is the salamander, which has tetrodotoxin in its body, which is very toxic, and it is a carnivore.

Lin Yi lay on the bed and turned over gently.

He had to remind Qin Zhou about the mutation, but he was afraid that Patient 203 would wake up suddenly and secretly stood behind him like the previous two nights, so Lin Yi could only wait for Patient 203 to wake up before After falling asleep, write down the situation on a note, and find a way to hand it over to Qin Zhou the next day.

Lin Yi closed his eyes and recalled the clues he had obtained so far.

Because I don't know when Dean Zhu will use the salamander, the top priority is to find the main line of the 16-8 rule world as soon as possible.

He summed up all the clues, the high-voltage iron net on the mountainside, nine patients, ten regenerated animals, the history that President Zhu talked about, a needle eye on the top of the patient's corpse and Shi Xuan The two pinholes on the top of the skull...

Slowly, an initial prototype of the main line gradually emerged in Lin Yi's brain.

Nine patients in the sanatorium knew President Zhu's ability, so they came to the sanatorium to receive 'treatment'. President Zhu used the high salary to attract nursing work as the patient's new body. This process will take a long time. After all, it has been half a year since the 203 patient arrived at the nursing home.

This is the shared secret of President Zhu and the patient.

Lin Yi remembered a saying: transplanting one person's memory to another person will also transplant his cultural knowledge, joys, sorrows, life experience, etc. to another person at the same time, That is equivalent to the continuation of life. 1

So after Dean Zhu found a new body for the patient, before the patient's body was exhausted, he inserted an 8mm needle into the top of the patient's skull, extracted the 'memory protein' stored in the brain, and then recorded the The memory protein is injected into the body of the new body.

And why are there two pinholes on the top of the new body? One is the injection of memory proteins, and the other is the injection of regenerating animal genes.

The carrier of the gene is dna, which is mainly distributed in the nucleus, and the human brain has the most cells, reaching 14 billion to 16 billion.

This is the explanation of the two pinholes on the cranial top of the new body.

Maybe what the patient wants is not the continuation of life, but immortality. They want to use the genes of the regenerated animals to change their own genes.

But the patients didn't know that they were actually the test items of President Zhu's 'Eternal Life'.

After the prototype of the main line is formed, there will be more doubts.

Lin Yi sorted it out little by little.

Judging from Dean Zhu's chat, he seems to be Emperor Hui of Jin and Li Hong. Emperor Hui of Jin was born in 259 and died in 307. Even if Emperor Hui of Jin was the beginning of President Zhu's life, he lived for thousands of years.

At that time, there was no technology to extract memory proteins, and Dean Zhu could not rely on memory to continue his life. Why does the dean still use patients to test 'immortality'?

What about the corpse in the mortuary freezer.

And before they entered the 16-8 rule world, the 16-8 monsters they saw were themselves, but this seems to have nothing to do with the main line that has been obtained now.

Lin Yi was about to make assumptions according to Qin Zhou's method, and finally there was movement in the ward.

"Kobayashi!"

Lin Yi continued to lie down, waiting for Patient 203 to call him several times, before Lin Yi pretended to wake up.

"Mr. 203?" Lin Yi walked out of the cubicle, rubbed his eyes and asked, "What's wrong?"

203The patient stared at Lin Yi gloomily, and Lin Yi asked again, "Mr. 203, what's wrong with you?"

203The patient said solemnly: "What have you done to me?"

Lin Yi was at a loss: "What?"

203The patient said, "Who knocked on the door? Why did I appear on the bed!"

"Knock on the door?" Lin Yi was even more confused. He glanced at the door of the ward: "Did anyone knock on the door?"

203The patient's tone was cold: "No?"

"No." Lin Yi said: "After you fell asleep, I finished writing my diary and fell asleep. Anyway, I didn't hear a knock on the door before I went to bed, as for why you appeared In bed, haven't you been in bed all the time?"

203The patient was silent, he stared at Lin Yi with one cloudy eye.

Lin Yi asked: "Mr. 203, are you having a nightmare?"

203The patient lowered his head: "Dream?"

"What did I dream of?" Lin Yi asked him.

The patient 203 thought for a while and said: "I dreamed that someone knocked on the door, you ran out of the cubicle and asked if I wanted to open the door. I refused because I was worried that the 303 nurse came to trouble you. But you suggested opening a crack in the door, I agree. But you opened the door and then closed the door immediately. You said that there was no one outside the door. We all suspected that it was a prank by the 303 nurse, so the two of us decided to go upstairs to ask the 303 nurse. clear."

"But I lost consciousness as soon as I got out of bed and walked to the door." When he said this, Patient 203 looked up at Lin Yi: "Then I went back to the hospital bed."

Lin Yi sighed: "It's still a dream in a dream."

"Yeah..." Patient 203 also sighed and said, "Since I became like this, I haven't dreamed for many years."

"It's nothing, it's just a dream." Lin Yi asked him, "Do you feel any discomfort in your body?"

"When you say that, I feel a little uncomfortable, my head is a little dizzy, and my body is a little weak." Patient 203 pointed his finger at the bedside table: "Xiao Lin, help me take out the second drawer. medicine."

"Good."

Lin Yi walked over and opened the drawer. After seeing the medicine in the drawer, his expression instantly froze.

Zopiclone.

Insomnia pills that make you fall asleep quickly.

203The patient's gloomy voice sounded in his ear: "I haven't taken my medicine tonight, Xiaolin, why do you think I fell asleep?"
