“Ah!”

Pear made a frightening low voice and immediately covered his mouth with his palm.

But Ren Ziling did not blame her reaction - because after hearing Lu Chaosheng's account of what had happened that year, she had not endured the horror in her heart, or even felt the hidden cold in her back.

A villager, working together, took an innocent woman to the cliff, ignored the woman's painful plea, but left her alive under the cliff.

It's not just cruel, it's even the kind of human heart that makes people want to be more horrible.

Ren Ziling sighed: “Ignorance has always been something extraordinarily scary. ”

She even smiled bitterly: "I know a little bit about Dr. Lu why you won't tell Evan. This kind of thing, let such a little girl know, is true...”

Lu Chaosheng sighed: “This has always been taboo in this village. More than a decade later, the flames of the wind and fire outside burned here. But nobody mentioned that thing back then. Everyone followed the rules as if it hadn't happened... who would want to go to that kind of thing? Who's willing to take responsibility for that? The culprits who instigated people were taken away, and her home was burned to the ground. So they thought their evil was burned with the fire. ”

Ren Ziling appealed: “No wonder Lu Hai moved his home to such a remote place... this village is full of enemies, I'm afraid. ”

Thinking about Lu Hai listening to the excitement on the tidal cliff, Ren Ziling began to have some imagination. Forty-five years ago, Lu Hai, who was just a very small child, went through such terrible things.

Lu Chaosheng's office suddenly became silent.

Pear took Lu Chaosheng out at this time and opened them up to pick up what they were looking at, which was after Lu Jia Village people contracted a strange disease.

It's not a photograph, it's something that Lu Chaosheng drew from his memory. Pear looked at the dense, numb things that were all over the patient's hands and feet, and he had to be creepy: “Is this... is this really the devil's curse? ”

Lu Chaosheng shook his head: “I decided to study medicine in part because I wanted to find out what the disease was. Because I don't believe in so-called curses. ”

“Did you find out why?” Ren Ziling asked curiously.

Lu Chaosheng looked uncertain: “In all these years, I haven't really encountered this cause. In recent years, however, the Internet has developed and a lot of information has been disseminated in a timely manner, and I have seen some reports of such cases online. ”

Lu Chaosheng turned around the old computer display on his desk and found his favorite web page after he disappeared. He opened it and said slowly: "There are not many cases found in the world, only a dozen or twenty examples. There is no clear medical definition and is now temporarily referred to as the 'Pile Hand’. This means that after the patient's hands and feet have changed, a large number of keratinocytes will grow and become mopping pieces. It must be a cell mutated disease. ”

“Well... I've seen this stuff before.” Ren Ziling nodded.

She looked at the photograph of the patient on the web page, which was very similar to the portrait that Lu Chaosheng had drawn by memory.

“The disease is suddenly mutating, looking like a pier, like a coral stone at the bottom of the ocean. No one knows if it will eventually get the whole body full. But for the people of that time, it was too much to be afraid of. The village's old fairy aunt Huang used to confuse the people, and the villagers believed it.” Lu Chaosheng shook his head, "this thing, I hid it for years. I was going to wait for Evan to ask me again, and I told her. ”

Ren Ziling silenced for a moment: "Doctor, can I take these pictures? ”

Lu Chaosheng thought for a moment: “If you want to take it, it doesn't work anymore anyway. ”

Ren Ziling tidied up: “Thank you, doctor. So let's leave you to work… Pear, let's go. ”

Watching the two leave, Lu Chao grew out of breath, he leaned against the chair, silently placed a cigarette, closed his eyes and thought of something.

Probably a long time ago.

……

……

“It's like some kind of chemical agent. ”

Night shook the tube on the shake of his hand and looked at Rochu: “As for what is in it, what will be the effect, we will not know until we have tested it. ”

Momo frowned at this moment: "Senior, have you heard of what those ghosts did to us before the war? ”

Lo Qiu glanced at Momo and said, "Are you thinking that the weird disease that happened in Lu Jia Village back then was caused by this box of things? ”

Momo nodded, “Isn't there a plaid here that's empty? And buried so deep underground. If I didn't know how to handle the Five Ghosts, I wouldn't be able to find them. At that time, the old lady was so anxious to throw the sick people into the sea. I'm afraid it would be contagious, but she couldn't explain it. ”

Momo twisted his eyebrows and said, "You know, if that old goddess really used something here, it would make people sick. As long as she doesn't continue to use it, the patients are dead. Then Lu Jia Village will return to the way it was, won't it? In this way, with the life festival, the people of the village can no longer get sick, can they just wander together and show the divinity of this old goddess, convincing? ”

Rochu suddenly said, "What are you going to do if it's really like you said? ”

Momoreau naturally said, "Of course, it's public. The old goddess was taken away by the guards, and naturally it didn't end well. But there was a part of the village in that time, and every one of them was an accomplice. This kind of grasshopper's life, just one sentence of instigation, and that's it? And pretend like nothing happened? Damn it! ”

Feeling the sense of justice in Momo's heart, Rochu quite appreciated it: “If you want to publish, what law do you intend to publish? ”

“This…” Momo said, not taking this aspect into account.

"You found this… even if you consider me your witness. But I am also an outsider to this Lu family village after all. You just found this box here, made a guess, how many people do you think believed that was why it happened back then? ”

Momo's face suddenly became ugly.

Luo Qiu sighed at this moment: “I'm afraid Huang's trick was also exposed when the woman was captured. After all these years, how is it possible that none of the villagers have ever thought about the irregularities of that time? But they kept taboo, didn't they? ”

Mommy looked at this found box in silence, unusually embarrassing.

"It's not that I don't know… I'm just reluctant to admit it," said Rochu softly. ”

Momo was furious: "This man! How could this man do this? ”

Lochu turned around, and this burned house was high ground. With a little glance, you can see most of Lu Jia Village, and his voice sounds softly, "Probably because… it's not just one person. ”

It's called us.
