Chapter 280: Uncovering the Secret of the Old Hospital 78

Under the dim lights, the hospital corridors appear particularly eerie. Abandoned for years, it's been nicknamed the "Ghost Hospital." Many claim strange noises and even ghostly apparitions are heard within. But our protagonist, Lin Yi, refuses to believe these rumors. He decides to investigate further and uncover the secrets of this old hospital.

That night, Lin Yi brought a girl named Chen Xue to the haunted hospital. Chen Xue was his longtime friend and a brave adventurer. They passed through the dilapidated iron gate and entered the hospital. A strange, nauseating odor permeated the air. They cautiously moved along the corridor, observing their surroundings and searching for clues.

After walking down a long corridor, they arrived at a dimly lit ward. The door was half-open, and eerie noises could be heard from within. Lin Yi and Chen Xue exchanged nervous glances before deciding to go in and investigate. Cautiously, they entered the ward and saw a patient lying on a bed, his eyes wide open, staring at them.

Lin Yi was about to approach the patient when he suddenly sat up! He looked at Lin Yi and Chen Xue with horror, letting out a heartbreaking scream. Chen Xue screamed in fear and hid behind Lin Yi. Lin Yi calmly took out his flashlight and shone it on the patient's face. It turned out that the patient was not a real person, but a zombie!

Lin Yi and Chen Xue stared at the zombie with wide eyes. They discovered that the zombie's eyes were red! This reminded them of the legendary vampire zombies. Lin Yi asked cautiously, "Who are you? How did you become a zombie?"

The zombie looked at Lin Yi, a pleading look in his eyes. He actually replied in human language, "I'm a doctor at this hospital. I've been possessed by an evil spirit and turned into a zombie. Please help me lift the curse and return to normal."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yi and Chen Xue exchanged a glance and decided to help the doctor. They searched for clues and finally found a talisman in the doctor's office. The talisman read: "Exorcise evil spirits and restore light." Lin Yi and Chen Xue discussed it and decided to perform an exorcism ceremony according to the talisman's instructions.

With the doctor's help, they found a suitable location for the ceremony. It was an abandoned operating room, dimly lit and eerie. Following the instructions on the talisman, they arranged the props and began chanting. Suddenly, a puff of black smoke emerged from the doctor's body, and he returned to normal!

The doctor looked at Lin Yi and Chen Xue gratefully and said, "Thank you for saving me. This hospital does hide a shocking secret. Back then, in pursuit of immortality, I researched an evil magic. Sadly, I failed, and this tragedy has resulted. I hope you can help me uncover this secret and restore peace to this hospital."

Lin Yi and Chen Xue agreed to the doctor's request and began to investigate the secrets behind the hospital. After some effort, they discovered a hidden laboratory underground. The laboratory was filled with various experimental equipment and a research notebook that recorded evil magic.

It turns out the doctor's previous research into evil magic involved using zombies to achieve immortality. However, the experiment failed, leaving zombies roaming free, leading to this tragedy. Lin Yi and Chen Xue decided to completely destroy the laboratory and put an end to the evil magic forever.

In a thrilling battle, Lin Yi and Chen Xue successfully destroyed the laboratory. The evil spell was broken, and the zombies returned to normal. The doctor looked at them gratefully and said, "You are my lifesavers and the saviors of this hospital. I will be grateful to you forever."

Lin Yi and Chen Xue smiled and shook their heads, saying, "We just did what we should do. Now, this hospital can finally return to peace."

From then on, no strange phenomena occurred in the ghost hospital again. Lin Yi and Chen Xue became heroes praised by the people. They continued their adventures, uncovering one hidden secret after another.
