Chapter 5 The Horrible Apocalypse Begins
It’s all thanks to him that I was able to buy a large quantity of evil-repelling supplies so smoothly today.
Giving him this cinnabar bracelet that wards off evil spirits is my way of repaying his kindness!
As for the future path, it depends on his personal luck.
"Then please send me back to the Chinese medicine hospital, thank you!"
The taxi was driving on the main road back to the city center.
Mu Jiu looked at the vehicles and crowds passing by quickly outside the window.
This is probably the last time I see such a bustling and prosperous city.
At 5:28 pm, Mu Jiu returned to the gate of the Chinese Medicine Hospital.
I don’t know if it’s because it’s cloudy, but the sky is starting to get a little dark.
All the money he had was spent, and the space was now filled with a large amount of evil-repelling supplies, which made Mu Jiu feel a lot more at ease.
She did not stockpile food or daily necessities because she knew that the entire city would be deserted the next morning.
All supplies belong to the living humans.
Unfortunately, 90% of ordinary people in this world will die on this night and will never see the sun the next day.
As Mu Jiu walked into the hospital, he picked up his cell phone and called his assistant Xiao Huang.
Xiao Huang's full name is Huang Size.
Mu Jiu and Xiao Huang are both doctors of traditional Chinese medicine.
Because Mu Jiu was admitted to a doctoral program directly from the junior class, her internship assistant Xiao Huang is even one year older than her.
But Mu Jiu is already considered a veteran.
This boy has been interning with her for almost a year.
Not only is she respectful, but she is also very considerate, and it would be good to be able to lend a hand.
"Master, the matter with the family members who caused trouble this morning has been resolved!
The other party paid 500 yuan in compensation, and because he had a history of assaulting a doctor, he was taken away by the police and detained for seven days!
The money has been transferred to your WeChat... Master, thank you for helping me out today!"
Xiao Huang on the other end of the phone said a lot of things at once.
He would only call her Master in private.
"Where are you now? I have something for you."
"For me?"
Xiao Huang's tone on the other end of the phone was noticeably lighter.
"I'm on duty today. I'm in the duty room on the ninth floor of the inpatient ward. Master, would you like to come over?"
"Well, wait, I'll come find you."
After hanging up the phone, Mu Jiu looked up at the sky and walked quickly towards the inpatient building behind.
I took the elevator upstairs and Xiao Huang was already waiting at the elevator door on the ninth floor.
As soon as the door opened, I saw a tall and handsome man in the crowd!
Mu Jiu stepped forward and handed him a box.
"Thank you for standing up for me today. This is my thank you gift to you!
Today is the Ghost Festival, and I'm on duty at night, so the yin energy is strong. Wearing this can ward off evil spirits."
"You're too polite. You're my master, so it's only natural for me to stand up for you!"
Xiao Huang said this and took the box from Mu Jiu's hand like a treasure.
"Hey, who the hell is coming?
Dr. Huang was so happy that he hung up the phone and waited anxiously at the elevator entrance.
I thought he had a girlfriend, so I came to check it out, but it turns out to be you!"
A familiar female voice suddenly sounded behind Mu Jiu.
Turning around, she saw Wang Dandan, a female doctor who came into the hospital with her but was seven years older than her.
The two of them have never gotten along. Wang Dandan is narrow-minded and always mocks Mu Jiu.
Xiao Huang was the junior and didn't dare to interrupt.
Mu Jiu chuckled, "I remember Doctor Wang got married last year, didn't he?
Why do you still like to stare at the young male doctor? Is there a problem with your husband? "
These words almost choked Dr. Wang to death!
She was just curious. After all, Dr. Huang's height and appearance were eye-catching wherever he went.
If you put it in the department, there will be handsome guys to look at every day, and your mood at work will be much better!
It was given to the widower king Mu Jiu, what a waste of talent!
"You, what nonsense are you talking about!
Alas~ Doctor Mu, I remember you don’t have class tonight!
Could it be that you... have taken a fancy to Dr. Huang and came here specially to give him a gift?
However, today is the Ghost Festival. Giving gifts on this day is too unlucky!"
"Who I give the gift to has nothing to do with Doctor Wang. It's not for you, so what does it have to do with you whether it's unlucky or not?"
Mu Jiu didn't give Dr. Wang any face at all. After tonight, they would be strangers and people would have different paths.
Doctor Wang wanted to say something in rebuttal.
She turned around and said hello to Xiao Huang, then pressed the elevator button again to go downstairs without even looking at her.
She didn't come back specifically to give Xiao Huang the cinnabar bracelet, but the hospital had what she needed.
One is the fraudulent merchants, and the other is the hospital’s medicines.
In the horrific apocalypse, a special species will appear, which is between humans and monsters.
For those who are on their deathbed, before they die completely, their souls will float out of half of their bodies and float outside.
People in the end times call the floating soul the Gui Shang.
They are people who have their feet in both the yin and yang worlds.
Because they are reluctant to leave the human world, you can help them fulfill their wishes in exchange for some special items, such as the magic talisman!
But this situation is rare, and even if it occurs, it will disappear quickly, so you need some luck.
But when it comes to dying people, where else can there be more people than in hospitals?
Mu Jiu went straight to the hospital's buffet cafeteria.
She paid for the meal with the compensation on WeChat, then took her plate and sat down by the window, slowly watching the traffic and people outside the window, waiting for dark.
Woohoo—woohoo—woohoo—
Soon, the sounds of ambulances and police cars began to gradually sound outside the window.
From gentle to rapid, from one or two to all over the city!
The outpatient department in front of the hospital seemed to be very busy, with patients being sent in continuously.
Mu Jiu ate slowly. Having not eaten for a whole day, this hot meal seemed especially delicious to him.
There were many people eating in the hospital cafeteria, and they were all very curious about the noise outside.
Some people even ran to the window seat to look out.
Soon, the sounds outside were no longer just the sirens of ambulances and police cars.
Instead, it was the violent collision of cars, mixed with the screams of men and women, that echoed over the city from the moment night fell.
Mu Jiu knew that the horrific apocalypse had begun.
It was exactly the same as the situation in the previous life.
Soon, the first scream was heard in the cafeteria.
The two nurses who were originally lying by the cafeteria window watching the hustle and bustle outside suddenly found that the reflection on the window glass was not their own!
Instead, it was a strange face with no whites of the eyes, a sunken nose, lips torn from the ears due to a smile, and a mixture of blood and brain matter flowing!
The timid one fainted on the chair on the spot, knocked over the boiling soup in front of her, and splashed it all over her, but she didn't react at all.
Mu Jiu knew that there was a high probability that there was no hope.
People who are frightened unconscious by the strange will have the strangeness quickly penetrate deep into their consciousness and gnaw at their essence until their energy and blood are exhausted and they will never wake up again.
The other one seemed to have gone mad. After screaming, he picked up the chopsticks on the table and stabbed himself in the eyes...
Everyone in the cafeteria was so frightened by this crazy scene that they all wanted to escape.
But apart from the increasingly intense screams, no one escaped from the cafeteria door...
