Born in the dark, Ended in the dawn

It's so dark, so dark, I can't see the surrounding environment clearly, I can only see the boundless mud under my feet, and piles of flesh and bones. The air is filled with a strange aroma, mixed with the rancid smell.

There was an even darker corner in the already dark place, and the sound of metal friction came from that corner frequently. Wei Lan took heavy steps and walked hard in the mud.What the hell is this place, a corpse pit?How could there be so many corpses? The wounds on those corpses were so hideous, as if they were bitten by wild beasts.

It was that pale hand again, stretching out from the endless darkness.You can't get close, you can't be dragged into the bottomless abyss by it, the mouth of the giant beast hidden in the dark is still in your heart, and you can't be bewitched again!

However, her body continued to move disobediently, walking towards the dark place like a demon, holding that cold and delicate wrist tightly, Wei Lan swore in her heart that she would never be dragged in this time, he wanted to save The one who is trapped here and cannot escape, no matter who he is!

Stabilizing her figure, Wei Lan moved the center of gravity of her entire body backwards, holding that hand with both hands with all her strength.Moved!Finally dragged!The arm was dragged out of the shadow inch by inch by Wei Lan, and the scene behind the arm was exposed to his sight bit by bit.

How could it be a skeleton!Except for the arm, there are only white bones left. The other hand of the white bones is firmly locked on the metal frame by handcuffs. Is that the source of the sound?Yeah, that's weird, why can't he hear anything other than the clink of the handcuffs?

There was no sound of footsteps or breathing. Wei Lan opened his mouth to shout, to make a sound that would make him feel at ease, but his throat seemed to be blocked by cotton balls, even if he squeezed all the air in his chest in pain, Not a single sound could be made, even the cough was silent.

Skeleton stood quietly, motionless, and Wei Lan did not move either, it was not that he didn't want to move, his body seemed to be controlled by invisible forces, and he didn't listen to the brain's command at all.This is where?Who is the skeleton in front of him?

No, that's not important, you must leave here quickly, this is not the place for him to stay!Can't talk, can't move, how long will it take to look at each other like this to end?Will you be trapped forever in this strange, dark place?

Hey.

sound?Where is the sound coming from?Is someone talking?

Hey, wake up!

There was a burning pain on her cheek, Wei Lan suddenly opened her eyes, and there was a magnified face in front of her, "Liu An?"

"What's wrong? You don't welcome me? There's nothing you can do if you don't welcome me. I'll be back to work from today on." Liu An walked out of the lounge impatiently, "Can you sleep calmly? Keep making strange noises there , still frowning and sweating profusely."

Have another nightmare?The dream was somewhat familiar, as if I had a similar dream before, but I couldn’t remember it clearly. In any case, I was able to break free from that depressive dream, thanks to Liu An’s slap, "Thank you."

A sip of water spouted far away, Liu An looked at Wei Lan who came out of the lounge with her hair brushed like a ghost, and said thank you after being slapped, is this seriously ill?Liu An glanced awkwardly at Wei Lan, then glared angrily at Wei Lan's looming abdominal muscles, slender hands and feet, and tall figure, and his jealousy instantly flooded.

Eat the same thing and exercise the same way, why is there such a big difference in body shape?It doesn't matter, just treat it as a model with well-developed limbs and a simple mind. Liu An turned his back depressed and stopped looking.

As soon as the working hours came, the office became lively, and the most heated discussion was the topic of the upcoming demolition of No. [-] Building of the Muhe Community.This is good news. The ghost building rumored by the citizens will finally be demolished. Everyone is happy, but the reason for the decision to demolish is not good.

It all stems from the carefulness of Zheng Kai when he was writing the closing report, he accidentally discovered that there were 24 employees in the member activity list of Yijie Construction who suddenly no longer had engineering business records, but Wei Lan heard that the number of people mentioned by Lu Jing was 23. After interviewing the relatives and friends of the employee, it has been confirmed that the real number of victims was 24 people, and there is still one body that has not been found, and it should still be in the foundation pit of Building No. [-].

This is an incredible discovery. No one would be willing to live in a building where the dead were buried. The planning bureau had to make a decision to demolish it. Even if there were no No. 20 corpses, the reputation of that building was already bad enough. Yes, dismantling it will never cause future troubles.

"Brother Wei, have you asked Dr. Gu for a blood test?" Yin Hang has been curious about this matter for a long time, and Lu Wei's blood test results have already come out, which are exactly the same as the mutated cells contained in those injections and pills.

"I've been there, but there's no result yet." Wei Lan was a little absent-minded, not just because of the dream he had in the early morning, but also because of what a visitor who came unexpectedly last night said.

The visitor was none other than Lao Guo, who hadn't appeared for a long time. Knowing that the other party was dead, Wei Lan felt a little uncomfortable facing Lao Guo so suddenly.This time, Lao Guo didn't carry any fried chicken or beer in his hand. Wei Lan couldn't deny that he felt a little bit disappointed, because he was hungry.

"Ever since I realized that I was dead, I can't seem to buy anything, and the boss doesn't talk to me, and I can't touch those things." Old Guo sat opposite Wei Lan unceremoniously, "I never realized Thanks to you for finding my dead body."

The words were too straightforward, and Wei Lan had a hard time adapting, "It was just an accident."

"Don't be humble with me. I can't stay in this world for a few days. Today I came to say goodbye to you. After realizing my death, I remembered many things that were about to be forgotten. While I can still look like a human , I must tell you quickly."

After being reminded, Wei Lan realized that the old Guo tonight was indeed different from before. It looked illusory, as if he could see things behind him through him, and there was no sense of reality at all. "Where are you going? Are you going to disappear?"

"Of course it's reincarnation, that's a great thing." Lao Guo smiled honestly, but his voice sounded strangely empty, "To make a long story short, I remembered why I ran to Building No. [-] of the Harmony Community. Because that night I saw a man who was very similar to your father Wei Chen, no matter how I called him, he ignored me. I followed him all the way, and followed him all the way to the No. [-] building, but I couldn't find him when I entered the gate. "

"My dad showed up in the Muhe Community?" Wei Lan was taken aback now, is that irresponsible dad really still alive?

"It's just very similar, and I'm not sure, so I went to the property to look for surveillance records, but there was no decent reason why people would show it to me, so I had to make up a cover and use the identity of the criminal police to deceive the property, saying that there was a suspected crime The suspect's guy entered Building No. [-], God knows I dug a hole for myself and jumped in."

Wei Lan became nervous following Lao Guo's emotions, "Did you see anything unusual?"

"Isn't it? I was too impulsive to find out the picture of Huda stuffing a black plastic bag into the drain. I didn't wait to contact my companions for support. I ran to the underground parking lot to investigate. What happened later may be the same as yours. What I experienced is the same. As for whether your father is there, I am not sure, but that figure is so similar, even the clothes on his body are exactly the same as those he wore on the day he disappeared."

Lao Guo's figure became more and more illusory, and Wei Lan didn't quite remember what he said, and his mind was full of information that his father had appeared there.But even if Dad really showed up there, it was already eight years ago. Now that the building has been emptied, how could it be still there?

The phone rang suddenly and vibrated, and Wei Lan, who was in deep thought, was so frightened that he almost threw the phone in his hand. The caller was Gu Shaohan. It seemed that the blood test had the results, "Doctor Gu, how is the situation?"

"The situation is very strange." Gu Shaohan felt that the test report in front of him could only be described as strange, "Your blood does not appear to have any problems under normal circumstances, just like ordinary people, but I used my own red blood cells to try to correct the blood. You create an infection, and weird things happen."

Wei Lan clutched the phone and left the noisy office, looking for an empty corner before asking, "Won't you be infected?"

"It's not that you won't be infected, but you can repair yourself!" Gu Shaohan's tone was like a scientist discovering an unknown new world, full of uncontrollable excitement, "Your red blood cells were infected by my sickle-shaped mutant cells After that, there will be mutations, but they will soon be swallowed by your own white blood cells, and the most interesting thing is that your infected cells will only appear complete mutant cells, and will not produce aggressive sickle-shaped cells cell."

"What does that mean? My blood won't infect others, and it can also purify itself?" Isn't this too whimsical?

Gu Shaohan explained excitedly, "No, Wei Lan, after talking so much, there is only one conclusion I want to tell you. Your blood has both the characteristics of a zombie and a witch from the Lu family."

"Hey?" What the hell are the two characteristics?Ice and fire? "I remember you said that the blood of the witcher's lineage is highly poisonous to the undead lineage."

"Yeah, the blood characteristic of a witch is that it looks like the blood of ordinary people, but it will not be infected by the blood of zombies. Instead, it can completely devour the mutated cells through autoantibodies. It has both offensive and defensive physiques."

Gu Shaohan stared at the picture on the electron microscope, his voice almost trembling, "But you also have the characteristics of zombies, your own uninfected cells, after artificial destruction and death, will quickly regenerate, the regenerated cells It will become a complete mutated red blood cell, which still does not have the ability to infect."

Wei Lan finally got some clues. The witcher lineage is basically an ordinary person. After death, he dies and cannot be resurrected, but the blood can swallow the mutated cells of the zombie lineage, and he has perfectly integrated these two characteristics. .

Before Wei Lan digested the excess amount of information, Gu Shaohan spoke again, "In theory, such an existence is impossible, because children born to witches and zombies will suffer from congenital pernicious anemia, and they will suffer from congenital pernicious anemia. If it is serious, it may die in the mother's womb, or even kill the mother. But among the people I have heard, there seems to be one exception."

Gu Shaohan thought for a while and then said, "I once heard from my family that there was indeed a witch man and a zombie woman who successfully gave birth to a girl. It was a shocking scandal in such a closed place, and the couple couldn't bear it. Under the pressure of public opinion, they took the girl away from home to find another way to make a living, but in the end they couldn't overcome the hardships of life, so they abandoned the girl, and the two of them fled back to Lujiazhai."

Go away?Abandoned girl?

Wei Lan felt his heart aching, and an answer hovered in his mind, ready to come out.If it was a big event that caused a sensation in the village, then the name of that family would probably be spread all over the sky. Wei Lan took a chance and asked, "Then do you know that girl's name?"

"It's called Dongmei."
