Plague Doctor

Gu Jun rode his bicycle all the way back to the dormitory. As soon as he walked into the dormitory, he picked up the kettle on the desk and drank a lot of water.

The water has not been changed for a few days, so it already has a bit of an old taste, but it is not bad for an exhausted person.

Gu Jun looked at the desk and saw that some of the traces he deliberately set up were still there, and the placement and order of the books and objects had not changed. No one should have broken in and searched here in the past three days. He always carried Li Lerui's mobile phone with him.

"Huh." Gu Jun sat down on the chair beside the desk, and then turned on the system in his mind to see the new situation.

Open the list of host capabilities:

[calm hand

Rarity: ★

Can practice level: triple

Current level: second level (030000 proficiency)]

Finally broke through to the second level!

Gu Jun found out three days ago that although he only needed the final 500 proficiency to upgrade his calm hands, he couldn't even improve 100 proficiency in self-dissection for half a day, which was less than the previous practice of intravenous injection.

"This shows that proficiency does not increase at an average speed." He concluded in his heart, "The further you go, the harder it is to rise, or the more proficient you are, the harder and more familiar you are. So the hundreds of familiarities that broke through the level at the end are much higher than the previous ones." Thousands of familiarities add up to more work."

Gu Jun looked at his hands and stretched them a bit. He has been wearing tight medical rubber gloves for the past few days, and he is not used to them being so loose now.

The Tai Ran hand has risen to the second weight, and the feeling is really different.

He seemed to be able to clearly feel every nerve in the ten fingers. This is the anterior interosseous nerve. As soon as his heart moved, he felt the thumb of his right hand slightly flexed... This was the ulnar nerve, and his right little finger jumped slightly again.

Although not yet proficient, this kind of detailed control is something that Tairan didn't have before upgrading.

With these two hands, you can make more precise and tiny operations when you pick up a scalpel or a scalpel.

"It's worth it these few days." Gu Jun couldn't help smiling, the second level is so powerful, I really don't know how far the third level can go.

Maybe when the time comes, I'll be the man with the strongest fingers in the world.

Gu Jun laughed at himself, closed the ability list, opened the task list, and looked at the prompt box, like saving a big chicken leg for after dinner.

[There are task rewards waiting to be claimed: 1 incomplete structure map, click to receive your reward]

This time the system is quite smart, knowing that the atlas was not directly sent to his pocket just now under the watchful eyes of everyone, is that right?

Reward for the first difficult mission! Gu Jun thought about it, and pressed "Click to receive"

"Successful receipt!"

Suddenly, his head was stabbed violently, and a bright light came from nowhere, and it suddenly floated above the ocean of his consciousness.

He "sees" that it is a map.

"Oh, this map is not issued as a physical body, but as a consciousness body. Well, it is more convenient to carry."

Gu Jun tried to open the map with his thoughts, but he could do it even though he was not proficient. He locked it from the sea of ​​consciousness, zoomed in, and zoomed in again...

He gradually saw clearly that it was a yellowed drawing made of parchment paper, which was probably a little smaller than an A4 paper. Mottled as if dug out of plaster.

There is only one pattern on this atlas, and even ordinary people without medical background can easily see that it is a local anatomical pattern.

Looks like a front view of a chest, but he's not sure...

Gu Jun is very familiar with human breasts, but the structure drawn on this picture...is very strange, some of them resemble the breasts of primates, but there are several details that seem to deny this possibility. There is no armor-like... plate bone on the chest?

"Plate bone." He murmured, the bone in the picture is obviously a diamond-shaped plate, covering and connecting the ribs at the back.

Gu Jun was puzzled, and looked at the marked text next to the map, and it really was that kind of mysterious text. These variant texts looked like they were handwritten, and compared to the print on the variant text medicine box, they looked rather scribbled.

Suddenly, he realized, "This front view of the chest is also hand-painted!"

Yes, some of the lines are crooked, and...

Gu Jun felt that this atlas was not drawn in a quiet study room, but in a sinister environment, which is why it has such a scribbled and hasty feel.

He followed the marked lines to identify the marked text, first looked at the text pointing to the "slab bone", and then read the text of several other bones, and found that they were all composed of two parts, which meant that What?

For the two concepts of rib and sternum, Chinese is "rib" and "sternum", and English is "costalbone" and "breastbone".

The repeated occurrence of "bone" and "bone" means bone.

And the back part of these bones marked with different texts is the same two characters... Is that also the meaning of the bones?

Gu Jun feels that this is the same concept! Thinking of this, a big stone quietly fell from his heart.

"This variant is a language that can be understood by human thinking." He thought, "It can be understood, it can be deciphered, and there is an answer."

He continued to decipher, and successively determined the difference between the three concepts of "muscle", "nerve" and "chest" from 19 marked texts.

arts. Then it was found that just as "chest" and "muscle" are the same radical, the words of these four different concepts also have the same parts.

"Bones, muscles, nerves, chest... Maybe this part means that it is related to the human body? Or is it life?"

Gu Jun pondered hard. After all, he was a layman in linguistics. Even if he looked up the information on the Internet, he still couldn't understand it. However, he didn't know any trusted linguistic friends. But now I finally found a breakthrough to understand this variant.

He looked at some of the notes written under the atlas. There were ten lines of small, tiny characters, with hundreds of characters.

What is very eye-catching is that the last four lines of text are exactly the same, and the exact same symbol is attached to the end of the sentence. This symbol is like ! or? Putting it together with Chinese characters, it is different from this language at first glance, it may be punctuation marks. He felt either an exclamation point or a question mark.

This sentence was repeated four times in a row...

It seems that the creator of this map was very excited at the time.

"What do these notes mean..." Gu Jun pondered, looking at the scribbled and trembling handwriting, he vaguely felt surprise, hesitation, and panic inside...

Perhaps these notes are the greatest value of this map, important information that can help him understand the whole thing.

But he really couldn't read it, and the more he read it, the more exhausted he was physically and mentally.

"I can't figure out anything if I go on like this. Let's take a nap first, and then compare it with the different text on the medicine box when you wake up refreshed."

Gu Jun rubbed his red, swollen and sore eyes, got up and went to the balcony tap to wash his face. He didn't want to take a bath, so he climbed into his bed and lay down, closing his heavy eyelids... I don't know how long it took, whether it was a dream or a dream. In reality, he seems to have fallen into a gray mist...

Silence, a soundless silence.

He was able to see clearly, and saw a huge dead tree with thick and messy branches, densely packed like cracks in the gray sky, without a single leaf, only some rotten vines hanging down, even the wind seemed to It is gray and black.

On the broad trunk of the dead tree, something moves...

It's the thin back of a child, clambering up the tree trunk with all his hands and feet, climbing up...

Gu Jun's consciousness is hazy, as if he is going away, and these scenes are also going away...

He saw that the ground under the dead trees was the same gray color, and he saw corpses lying on the ground, as if they were arranged in a pattern. Their faces could not be seen clearly, but their limbs... or Whether it's the hands or the feet, there are distortions...

Suddenly, a figure fell from the dead tree. It was the thin child. Although the child had tried his best, he still couldn't hold on to the increasingly rugged and curved trunk. He missed and fell down.

The child seemed to be screaming, but Gu Jun couldn't hear it.

Bang! He heard it, and the silence broke. The child fell heavily to the ground, blood stained the dust, his pale and immature face was distorted by shock and horror, his eyes were wide open, but there was no trace of expression.

Gu Jun has seen this pale and immature face...in the body storage room of the Jujie Building.

It was the child lying in the body storage tank soaked in formalin, with deformed hands.

I like Plague Doctor.
