Plague Doctor

Chapter 21: Hoarse whispers on the phone

Dida, the phone was connected.

Gu Jun's brow furrowed, his heart lifted, and some sizzling noises were heard against the ear of the phone, as if the signal was not good. He paid attention to the surrounding alleys, and did not make a sound first. In fact, he did not intend to make a sound. He just wanted to know if there was anyone in Gurong Village ...

There was still no one on the other end of the phone, and the deep, hoarse voice was getting louder and louder.

Listening to this voice, Gu Jun's turbulence, which he often had recently, rose again from the bottom of his heart.

Who is it, who is it! Who is on the phone ...

He wanted to ask so loudly, but he endured so hard that even his own breathing was kept down to prevent his voice from being exposed.

It seems that once the voice is exposed, the ominous disaster will come.

"..." Gu Jun did not take the initiative to hang up the phone. Despite the increasing pressure in his heart, he was still listening to the hoarse whisper. Is this a language? He only knows that he is not in the Longkan video. Read the language ...

No, no, this seems to be the sound of the throat constantly rubbing and squeezing.

There is a creature over the phone and is trying to speak.

Gu Jun tried hard to hear clearly, but the surrounding environment was very noisy, passing motorbikes passed by, residents in the neighborhood were talking, and songs were playing in the store. These sounds were mixed together, covering the strange sound. He continued to listen to the phone while walking towards the depths of the alley.

Shask, Shask ...

The noise around is getting smaller and smaller, and the strange noise on the other side of the phone is getting louder.

When Gu Jun walked to a quiet place near the end of the lane near the garbage dump, he could hear it suddenly, but he could hear it quietly ...

"help me……"

In the hoarse whisper on the other end of the phone, these two Chinese characters came out to save me.

It was human voice, although it was so low-pitched and trembling, he recognized human tone and emotion, or fear.

It seemed that the throat was opened, and the end of the phone said one after another: "I didn't ... die ... I'm not ... they ... I didn't ... the stuff in the banyan tree ... let me go out, ah ... me Do n’t want to die ... save, save me ... "

The great pain in this voice made Gu Jun's heart uncomfortable.

He vaguely heard that the other party should be a villager of Gurong Village. He was not dead yet, but he could not evacuate. Because he had been infected and his body was deformed, he was controlled within the village.

A few days ago, Gu Jun was still shrouded in the shadow of terminal illness, he knew that a person wanted to live well but was unable to fight the taste of death.

"Save me, please, save me ..." The voice over the phone was still wailing.

Gu Jun ’s hand holding the phone was slightly tighter, which surprised him. At this time, he remembered the beginning of the first year of freshman. When he took the first class, he and his classmates were together in the class as usual. Stand up for the scene of Hippocrates vows.

At that time, he swore that he didn't care, but just took a form.

"As a medical worker, I formally swear to devote my life to humanity ..."

"I will practice my medicine with purity and holiness all my life."

Gu Jun is silent, it is the destiny of medical dogs to cure people and save people. But now, he can do nothing.

He could not save the director of Gu Rong Village, the child who climbed the tree, or the person on the other side of the phone.

"In the banyan tree ..." The strange noise from the phone became more and more painful, "something ... not ... don't ..."

Suddenly, the phone snapped off, beeping ...

Gu Jun looked down at the phone in his hand, took a deep breath, and said softly: "I'm sorry, if I can, I want to save you. I don't have that ability, I haven't ..." He looked up at the evening sky and turned that He exhaled for a long time, but a part of his heart became more firm.

That is what he wants to do, to be a real doctor, to save people.

There are not so many reasons for being tall ... He felt that he couldn't bear it.

Standing for a while, Gu Jun sorted out his messy mood and silently pulled out this new mobile phone card.

"What's in the banyan tree?" He began to think about what the villager was dying just now, what? Is the source of that big banyan tree?

Huge twisted branches, rugged ribs, tangled fibrils ... deformed limbs ...

These pictures gradually overlapped in Gu Jun's heart, and an idea naturally emerged: the deformed limbs of those bodies were very similar to the roots of the banyan tree.

How does a banyan tree become the source of disease?

Gu Jun thought and turned his head back.

It was a little dark, and a cool breeze blew past, Gu Jun suddenly flashed the strange sensation, he glanced around. This piece is called "Jufu Lane", there are no high-rise buildings, some are old buildings, forced streets, broken and messy shop signs, and gradually lost the tradition.

He used to come here often, because there are many authentic Dongzhou local food stalls in Jufu Lane, and students from Dongdong University like to come here to find out.

Although it is cluttered everywhere, he is familiar with every wire and every signboard of this piece.

However, now walking on the rotten concrete road at the end of the alley ~ www.NovelMTL.com ~ He felt a strange coldness and gradually surrounded him.

Drip, drip, like the sound of rain falling to the ground.

Although the sky was gray, it did not rain.

Dida ... Gu Jun looked back suddenly, forcing nothing into the dilapidated empty alley.

Only those old signs swayed slightly, "Tide Hair House, Professional Haircut" "Yonglong Hotel" "Copy Typing Fax"

"It was the man who followed me ..." Gu Jun was sure that the guy followed in the dark! He thought about what to do, his eyes retracted from the back, and turned around, but he saw a flat-headed middle-aged man standing less than five steps away.

The man was dressed in plain clothes, his face was a little dry, his cheeks were thin and sunken, and his eyes were covered with bloodshot eyes.

Is the man who has followed him for many days.

How to do? Gu Jun keeps himself calm and turns to run? Or walked past without knowing anything?

But he noticed that the flat-headed man's eyes looked at him without scrutiny, and the gloomy and strange in his eyes did not hide at all.

Gu Jun immediately understood, "He knew that I found him following me ..." Because of this, the flat-headed man appeared like this.

In an instant, Gu Jun decided to preemptively, pretending to be just ordinary people's ordinary things, no other involvement, pretending to ask frivolously and loudly, "Old iron, who are you? Staring at me, who are you? What are you looking at? "

"Mr. Gu." The flat-headed man smiled, and the corner of the mouth of the puppet was ripped open. "Hand it over, it will be fine."

Gu Jun's face did not change color, thinking about how to deal with it, Li Lerui's cell phone was in the inner pocket of his jacket, did it come for it ...
