Citizen Four [Unlimited Stream]

Chapter 30 The Mansion of the Head 14

This ball turned out to be a human head.

The head and facial features are clear and well-defined, but the face is too pale, as if it has not been exposed to the sun for decades, and it seems that it has been soaked in water for a long time. The dull eyes are covered with a white film, and they don't know where to look. People are unpredictable.

Suddenly, the absent-minded and dull gaze of the human head met the gaze of the thin monkey, and the thin monkey felt a violent heartbeat. Amidst the sound of metal rubbing, six spider-like long legs grew under the human head.

The thin monkey convulsed, and just passed out foaming at the mouth. Dingchiyu could not help shaking his head silently even though he was pretending to be asleep, smelling the smell of urine from the thin monkey.

At the moment when the thin monkey lost his mind, more than a dozen human heads fell from the roof back and forth. Their slender legs advanced and retreated well, arranged in a square formation, and caught a black shadow slowly hanging down from the roof.

The moment the black shadow was fixed by the human head, the blackness on the surface faded—it turned out to be a layer of life-like hair—connected to the human head below, and then, what was inside was revealed—the night when the medicine was collected in the ruined temple. Fu Jie who disappeared in the movie.

Ding Chiyu quickly took a closer look, and found that Fu Jie was not dead, but just looked up with absent-minded eyes, as if he couldn't feel anything.

Ding Chiyu trembled slightly, and wanted to get up, but was held down by Shang Yang who was supposed to be in a deep sleep.

Ding Chiyu looked at Shang Yang quietly, Shang Yang looked over with very determined eyes, Ding Chiyu understood that Shang Yang was doing it for his own good, so he could only continue to lie down sadly.

Amidst the neat sound of "Xi Xi Suo Suo", Fu Jie was carried by the human-headed phalanx, and quickly came to the side of the cauldron, without any hesitation, he threw Fu Jie into it.

There was no sound, just like the pictures in old black and white movies, Fu Jie just fell into the cauldron of medicinal soup. The moment he came into contact with the medicinal soup, he seemed to regain consciousness. Clinging to the edge of the cauldron, the seemingly temperatureless cauldron immediately burned Fu Jie's hands to smoke. In a pungent and subtle burnt smell, Fu Jie's hands were quickly torn apart, and the wounds were scorched black. bone.

Fu Jie seemed to be desperately calling for help, but no sound came out of his gaping mouth. Looking at his ferocious face, Ding Chiyu couldn't bear it any longer, and wanted to get up, but Shang Yang pressed him down hard.

At this time, a mouse ran out suddenly, and the vigilant head immediately found it, captured the mouse suddenly, poked it with its long foot, and the mouse immediately pierced through it, losing its breath.

Shang Yang felt Dingchiyu's pain, and quietly hugged him in his arms. Dingchiyu's face was pressed against Shang Yang's chest, his ears were covered by Shang Yang, and a sense of helplessness and powerlessness spread in his body. Dingchiyu once again felt his powerlessness in the blind spot.

Soon, Ding Chiyu tried to calm down, and silently looked away from Shang Yang's arms. Fu Jie had completely fallen into the medicinal soup, and his body was boiled and melted in the medicinal soup, leaving only a human head floating .

Suddenly, the medicinal soup that had been calm in the cauldron suddenly boiled, and Fu Jie's head rose up. Under the steaming mist, he actually danced on the surface of the medicinal soup like this. The voice sang: "One is sick, two are watching, three are gathering herbs, four are boiling, five are taking care of, six are carrying, seven are digging, eight are buried, nine are crying, ten are asking, none of them can live come down..."

The medicinal soup boiled three times, and Fu Jie's head danced three times. The empty and strange tune was deeply engraved in Ding Chiyu's heart, penetrated into his head, and gnawed at his brain...

When Dingchiyu woke up, it was already the next morning.

Shang Yang and Four Eyes guarded the cauldron, Ding Chiyu looked at the crimson medicinal soup in the cauldron that was exactly as described in the prescription, and a sense of disgust rose in his heart.

The thin monkey huddled in the corner, and the faint stench from his body reminded Ding Chiyu that what happened last night was definitely not his nightmare, but a real fact.

The picture of last night in his mind was clear and real, Ding Chiyu shook his head vigorously, but he couldn't drive them out no matter what.

"Are you okay?" Shang Yang came to Ding Chiyu and looked at his face with concern.

"I'm fine." Ding Chiyu managed to squeeze out a smile.

Shang Yang saw this smile in his eyes and felt the pain in his heart. Shang Yang pulled Ding Chiyu's shoulders, held him in his arms, and patted his back lightly until Ding Chiyu's breathing rhythm became lighter. Slowly, let him go.

Dingchiyu quickly adjusted his mood, and Shang Yang felt relieved. The four eyes beside the cauldron didn't know what happened, but they cast a concerned look at Dingchiyu.

Only then did Shang Yang tell Ding Chiyu that Four Eyes was the only one who didn't wake up last night, so he didn't know about it.

Ding Chiyu looked at the still sunny expression in his four eyes, and smiled back at him.

The servant quickly brought the breakfast, and Dingchiyu asked the thin monkey to eat, but he didn't respond at all, he shivered when he was called, and the three of them could only let him go.

The breakfast was very good, and Ding Chiyu tried his best to let himself eat it, not only to prevent Shang Yang from worrying about him, but also to hope that he could become stronger.

The picture of last night is still engraved in his mind, but Ding Chiyu has already used this as his motivation: no matter what, he must work hard to live.

There was still some time before the new housekeeper came to pick up the medicine, Shang Yang guarded the cauldron and suggested that Ding Chiyu go to sleep for a while, but Ding Chiyu refused to leave Shang Yang and fell asleep by him.

The new housekeeper didn't come to collect the medicine until after lunch. After the inspection, there was a rare smile on his stern face.

A group of people left the Kuayuan like this, but the careful Dingchiyu found that the new butler was carrying everyone behind his back, quietly took out a small paper bag, and added the white powder inside to the cauldron of medicinal soup.

Shang Yang also noticed this, Ding Chiyu looked at him and asked with his eyes, Shang Yang silently shook his head, Ding Chiyu looked at the escorting male servants beside him, and agreed with Shang Yang's judgment.

Back at the mansion, Ding Chiyu and the others unexpectedly discovered that the other three were not there.

There was no one in the room or the dining room, and the servant didn't respond to his questions. His four eyes were very worried. Ding Chiyu and Shang Yang accompanied him to look for them, and the three of them were sent back by a maid.

After questioning with four eyes, Ding Chiyu and the others found out that when the four of them were brewing medicine, the three of them were also sent to another hospital to take care of the master's daily life.

The three of them also looked tired, they didn't want to talk too much, and they went back to their room to rest without eating.

After a night of torment, Ding Chiyu and Shang Yang also went to sleep for a while, Ding Chiyu always felt at ease by Shang Yang's side, and after waking up, he was much more refreshed.
