Strange talk live room

The fire that year seemed to have destroyed all life, leaving only a blackened shell.

The third floor and downstairs are completely two different times and spaces.

Everything here remains as it was after the fire.

Except for that hospital bed.

The crisp white sheets contrasted sharply with the blackened room.

I looked at it, walked in and put the old man on the hospital bed.

Her body was curled up, her eyes closed, and the black umbrella was still stuck in her mouth, making mechanical biting movements.

Li Xiaohei squatted next to the old man's head, stretched out his small black hand, and pointed at the back of the old man's head.

I get closer and shine my flashlight.

On the back of the old man's neck, under the gray and sparse hair, a corner of a piece of yellow paper was exposed.

"Fu Zhuan?"

I reached out and carefully pulled out the yellow paper.

The old man bit the black umbrella's mouth and immediately relaxed.

The crouched body also stopped moving and turned into a normal dead corpse.

I looked at the yellow paper in my hand.

It is indeed a talisman.

But it's not a good talisman.

This is called the Corpse Raising Talisman.

If it is attached to a dead body, the dead body will rise up and absorb the essence of the living person to extend its life.

A brief resurrection from the dead.

The more essence is absorbed, the longer it takes to return Yang.

As for people whose essence has been sucked away, their bodies will age rapidly, and naturally they will not have much life left.

I squinted my eyes.

Before going upstairs, Director Yang pushed me.

The corpse-raising talisman was put on at that time.

It is simply an excuse to say that dead people cannot stay in the dormitory and must be placed in the morgue on the third floor.

I just want the old man to suck my essence.

Moreover, judging by Director Yang's words, the old man died more than once.

I must have used this method to return Yang every time.

The volunteers who come here are miserable.

Either he was killed by the ghost in the toilet on the first floor, or his essence was sucked away by the dead old man.

Although people will not die immediately if they lose their essence, their health will deteriorate and their luck will deteriorate, making them prone to illness and exposure to dirty things.

After leaving the nursing home, time is running out.

This is why Aunt Tao and the others asked me to leave before dark.

This is also the reason why Lao Ding told me never to come to the third floor.

They knew that the volunteers who stayed would end badly, but they were under pressure not to tell the truth.

It can only be a vague reminder.

It's a pity that those volunteers, who were clearly here to do good things, were killed by others.

Shaked his head.

I looked at the corpse talisman again, thought about it, and put it in my pocket.

Then, I lifted up the white sheet on the hospital bed and covered the old man's body completely.

"rest in peace."

Putting away the black umbrella, Li Xiaohei squatted on my shoulder.

I'm in no hurry to go downstairs.

Instead, he took out the thing he got from the hand of the demented old man from his pocket.

A crumpled ball of paper.

I unfolded the paper ball and found a few white pills inside.

I don’t know what kind of medicine it is.

There is a line of words written crookedly on the paper ball: Give it to me during the day.

There is a long string of numbers below, which looks like a bank card account number, but there is no password.

How many pills should I feed him during the day?

He obviously has medicine, why doesn't he take it himself?

I glanced at the old man's body covered by a white sheet on the hospital bed, thoughtfully.

Maybe it wasn't that he hadn't eaten it himself, but he just came back to life again.

Isn’t it good to be alive?

I think back to the prompts in the live broadcast room.

"This is a place close to death."

"We are all sick and people are dying every day."

"I really envy them."

"A peaceful death is a luxury."

"In that case, it's better to resist."

The place close to death naturally refers to the nursing home.

We are all sick - Director Yang said, the old people are sick in their hearts. Could it be that they have done something wrong?

People are dying every day, and I really envy them - for them, real death is a kind of relief.

A peaceful death is a luxury - even if you die, you will be forced to live again.

So the last sentence.

In this case, it is better to resist.

What does it mean?

I looked at the white pill in my hand.

If you eat it during the day and die of illness in front of everyone, maybe you won't be labeled with a corpse amulet. Because the corpse-raising talisman must be affixed within one hour after the person's death to take effect.

Elevating a body in broad daylight can easily cause panic. If the body is not properly secured, some people may run out for fear, leading to the incident being exposed.

Therefore, only by dying during the day can you die completely.

Ending his own life and not giving the other party a chance to resurrect him, is this Yao Guoliang's way of resistance?

Are all the elderly in nursing homes like this?

I thought of the old lady with diabetes who secretly asked the nurse to give her oranges during the day.

Perhaps this is also her way of fighting.

Judging from the attitudes of the caregivers, this may have happened more than once or twice.

I don’t know whether to call these old people sad or pitiful.

Then here comes the problem.

Why don’t nursing homes let the elderly die?

Director Yang was acting according to Boss Hao's orders. In other words, it was Boss Hao who refused to let the old people die.

Is there any grudge between him and the old man?

But aren't the old people his saviors?

Could it be that the opinions from the outside world are just superficial, and that the incident back then may have something to do with the old people?

He did this to get revenge on the old man.

But that’s not right either.

If he had a grudge, he should wish that the old people died early, instead of resurrecting the old people again and again.

Are you keeping the elderly alive to torture them?

But I have carefully observed that there is no sign of elder abuse in the nursing home.

The motivations of this big boss are really unclear.

But I believe that the reason must be related to the fire that year.

So ah so getting to the bottom of the fire is still key.

I wrapped the pills in a note and put them back in my pocket.

Then he asked Li Xiaohei to hide, put away the black umbrella, and prepared to go downstairs to find Director Yang.

Director Yang is Boss Hao's lackey, so she must know a lot.

Turn on the flashlight and walk out of the house.

Standing in the charred corridor, I was suddenly stunned.

In the beam of light emitted by the flashlight, pieces of black ashes were floating like snowflakes.

The ashes seemed real and some were scattered on my head and clothes.

The burnt smell in the air is getting stronger and stronger.

It was as if a fire was burning.

This was not the case when we first went upstairs.

I became cautious.

Stepping on the thick dust, I walked carefully forward in the ashes-strewn corridor.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuu"

In the dark front, a woman's miserable cry could be heard faintly.

I followed the crying sound with my flashlight.

On the right side of the third floor.

There seemed to be a woman's figure in a burned-down house.

As he got closer to the door, the crying became a little clearer.

"Why."

The woman cried sadly while repeating why over and over again.

There is endless resentment and pain.

I tentatively shined my flashlight into it.

In the room that had been burned by the fire, there were only black ashes floating quietly in the beam of light.

There was no sign of a woman.

The cry came near and far away.

I suddenly felt a chill on my back and turned around suddenly.

A crying old face appeared in the flashlight.

"Why?"
