Trembling At A High Altitude

Chapter 979

The more Dean Zhao said this, the more uneasy everyone felt.

The director of the mental hospital did not go home to sleep, but instead went to sleep in the ward where many serious patients died. Could it be that his psychology has become abnormal?

"I'm sorry, our hospital has never considered having guests visiting and staying here for a few days, so we only have this condition, which is a grievance for everyone." Director Zhao said a few more words.

At this moment, Dean Zhao's intercom rang. It seemed that Zhao Deng was telling him what happened in the hospital ahead and asking him to go over and take a look.

"You guys should settle down and rest for a while. I still have something urgent to deal with. I'll take you to dinner later." After Dean Zhao finished speaking on the intercom, he said to everyone.

"Excuse me, Dean Zhao, please do your business." Fang Jianguo could only smile.

Everyone knows that Dean Zhao has a temper that looks gentle on the surface, but is actually a very stubborn and fierce old man. There is obviously no benefit to offending him.

Moreover, even if I find another place to sleep, who knows if it will be a ‘clean’ place?

There was no other way. After Dean Zhao left, everyone had to enter a room together to check the situation inside.

"The environment here is too bad, isn't it? The bedding is old and smells sour and musty." He Siying frowned and covered her nose.

"The wall should have been painted. The surface is lime, and you can see that it is black underneath. Was there a fire here?" Fang Jianguo looked at the wall and analyzed it.

Li Teng felt the same way.

Dean Zhao said that all those serious patients died. Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible for them to die together, right?

If they died together, there was only one possibility, that is, there was a fire in this building, and none of the patients inside could escape, and they were all burned to death inside.

It is said that these rooms have been transformed into guest rooms, but it feels like there is no transformation at all.

The furnishings are still the same as in other wards, there is no bathroom, just a bed and a toilet in the corner.

There is no sink, so you have to go to the public water room to wash your hands and face.

The only thing that is different from other wards is that there is no lock on the outside of the iron door of this ward.

However, we cannot rule out the possibility that someone might suddenly lock the door outside while sleeping inside with the door closed.

"What should I do? Just stay here?" Fang Jianguo looked at Li Teng.

"Is there any other better choice?" Li Teng spread his hands.

"I have a suggestion. I don't know what brother Li Teng thinks..." Fang Jianguo looked at Mei Qiugui and then said to Li Teng.

"What advice?"

"I think the four of us should be accommodated in one room. We can move the beds in other rooms and squeeze them together. When two of us are sleeping, the other two will stay overnight to prevent those people from harming us secretly." Although Fang Jianguo I was talking to Li Teng, but actually I was also talking to Mei Qiugui and his wife.

But because he and Mei Qiugui had a fight before, some words couldn't be said directly and could only be expressed by talking to Li Teng.

Fang Jianguo originally thought that Mei Qiugui would object, but he remained silent and seemed to accept this choice by default.

Since no one raised any objection, everyone chose one of the wards and tried to move a bed from another ward.

Each ward is very small and can only fit one bed into it.

However, everyone soon gave up this attempt.

Because the four legs of the iron bed in the ward were welded to the concrete floor.

"It seems we can only take turns laying the floor." Fang Jianguo said in a depressed tone.

"Then let's build a floor." Li Teng didn't care. He had been in more difficult environments than this.

…

"No way? Are you going to crowd into a room to rest?" Dean Zhao came over at some point and found four people making beds on the floor in one of the rooms, so he asked everyone.

"We all like the excitement, so we sleep together at night and chat." Fang Jianguo smiled at Dean Zhao.

"There is a lady here. Isn't it inconvenient?" Dean Zhao said again.

"It's okay. We are all familiar with each other. There will be no safety issues with her being with us." Fang Jianguo hid.

"I don't recommend that you guys squeeze together like this. It's really inconvenient. It's more comfortable to have one room per person." Dean Zhao continued.

"Hey, we just like the excitement, we don't like sharing a room alone." Fang Jianguo insisted.

"Okay, it's up to you. By the way, you must be hungry, right? I'll take you to eat." Dean Zhao proposed to everyone.

After walking on the mountain road for so long, everyone was so hungry that their chests pressed against their backs. After hearing what Dean Zhao said, of course they got up and followed him out of the room.

However, the chef and the canteen without fireworks really made people feel guilty.

Will you eat elsewhere? For example, Dean Zhao’s home?

Soon everyone gave up hope.

Dean Zhao led everyone back to the canteen.

The chef holding the bone chopping knife was still standing by the door, looking at everyone with a strange smile on his face.

There was a strange smell that seemed to be food in the cafeteria, the kind that makes people lose their appetite.

Under the guidance of Dean Zhao, everyone passed by the chef and walked into the cafeteria.

It was already dark now, but the lights in the cafeteria were very dim, giving people a somewhat eerie feeling.

Seeing the bone chopping knife in the hand of the chef standing by the door, Mei Qiugui was murmuring in her heart and didn't even dare to raise her eyes to look at the chef.

"kill!"

What caught him off guard was that when Li Teng and Fang Jianguo passed by the chef, the chef didn't move at all.

However, when he passed by the chef, the chef suddenly raised the bone chopping knife high and shouted at him.

Mei Qiugui was unprepared and was instantly frightened. She subconsciously ducked to the side, but her steps staggered and she accidentally fell onto the greasy and smooth floor of the cafeteria.

"Hahahaha..." the chef laughed.

"You're going too far! Are you mentally ill?" He Siying couldn't help but get angry when she saw Mei Qiugui was frightened, and shouted to the chef.

"What an amazing girl, I really want to tie her to a chopping board and chop her open, haha..." The chef continued to laugh.

"You are really seriously ill! Pervert! You..." He Siying continued to curse, but was forcefully pulled away by Mei Qiugui who got up from the ground and covered her mouth.

"He is a good-natured person, but he just likes to joke." Dean Zhao explained a few words to He Siying.

"Is this a joke? This is not funny at all! This is obviously bullying!" He Siying was furious.

"Stop talking! It's okay, it's just a little joke." Mei Qiugui continued to stop He Siying.

Chapter 980

"The more cowardly you are, the more they will bully you! Why doesn't he dare to make fun of the two of them? Because he knows that the two of them are together, and he can't afford to offend that big guy!" He Siying forcibly took away Mei Qiugui's hand, shouted to him.

"Zhao Biao! You scared the guest! The guest is very angry! You will be punished by going to the solitary room to reflect for a night!" Dean Zhao suddenly yelled at the chef sternly.

"Hehe." The chef who was called Zhao Biao laughed twice, as if he didn't want to leave.

"Dean Zhao, no, it's just a joke. We're not angry." Mei Qiugui quickly smoothed things over.

"No, the hospital has hospital rules. These rules cannot be changed by anyone. He must be severely punished by going to the solitary room! Zhao Biao! If you don't go, do you want me to ask Zhao Deng and the others to come and arrest you?" Zhao Yuan The leader scolded Zhao Biao a few more times.

"Haha." After Zhao Biao laughed twice more, he suddenly threw the bone chopping knife in his hand.

The bone-chopping knife flew over everyone's heads, spinning and hitting the wooden wall behind them. The blade trembled violently and was nailed to the wooden wall.

Then Zhao Biao turned around and walked out.

"Can you say less in the future?" Mei Qiugui whispered to He Siying almost pleadingly.

They had completely offended the chef. It seemed that the chef was definitely not someone to be trifled with.

"Can you stop being so cowardly outside?" He Siying retorted to Mei Qiugui.

"You..." Mei Qiugui was furious. It was obviously not the right place to have this kind of argument with He Siying in front of other people.

Fang Jianguo, in particular, kept looking at them as if they were laughing.

"Okay, everyone has worked hard and enjoy this feast! I still have things to deal with, so I won't accompany you." Dean Zhao greeted everyone with a smile, turned around and walked towards the door of the cafeteria. .

"Dean Zhao, the chef was just joking with me just now. It's not a big deal. I'll just let the punishment be avoided if possible." Mei Qiugui followed up a few steps and whispered a few words to Dean Zhao in a low voice.

"Those who deserve to be punished must be punished." Dean Zhao left quickly after saying this.

Mei Qiugui stood in a daze for a while, then sighed and walked back to everyone.

Everyone sat down at a table with food.

There are several plates and bowls on the dining table.

There is a pile of steamed buns on the big plate in the middle. The buns are a little black and dotted with some black spots. I don't know if they are sesame seeds or something. They don't look very good, but they are warm at least.

Then there are several large bowls of dishes.

Three of the bowls were filled with vegetables, radishes, etc., which were boiled with salt and a small amount of oil.

There was also a bowl of meat that seemed to be meat, but it was mixed into a paste and it was hard to tell what kind of meat it was.

"Is it poisonous?" Fang Jianguo picked up a steamed bun and looked at it and smelled it.

"What is this?" He Siying also took a steamed bun and looked carefully at the black spots on it, and found... those black spots seemed to be ants?

Others also took a closer look and found that it was indeed an ant.

And it doesn't look like it was wrapped in accidentally, it's more like a nest of ants was deliberately caught and rubbed in while making the dough.

"That's disgusting!" After seeing it clearly, He Siying threw the bun back into the middle plate.

Fang Jianguo and Mei Qiugui also had disgusting expressions on their faces.

What none of them expected was that after Li Teng opened the steamed buns in his hands and took a look at them, he stuffed them into his mouth and ate them.

He also used chopsticks to pick up the vegetables in the bowl and ate them together, seemingly not caring whether sesame seeds or ants were added to the steamed buns.

If Dean Zhao really wanted to poison this meal, he would at least prepare some appetizing food to poison it, right? Anyway, Li Teng felt that it was impossible to kill them with such low-level means in this supernatural mission.

In order to avoid being poisoned, if you don't eat or drink, you will die faster if you don't have the strength later.

He was more afraid of starving than others, so he had better eat first.

"Eat with your eyes closed. You can't survive three days without eating." After Li Teng ate for a while, he saw that the other three people didn't move, so he tried to persuade them.

Fang Jianguo picked up a steamed bun and carefully picked out the ants on it. He wanted to pick out the ants before eating them, but he quickly gave up.

There were too many ants inside, and they were integrated into the surface of the steamed buns, making it impossible to pick them out.

Seeing Li Teng eating heavily, maybe he was too hungry. Finally, Fang Jianguo closed his eyes and took a big bite of the steamed bun.

Fortunately, apart from some sourness, there isn't much of a strange smell.

So Fang Jianguo also started eating with Li Teng.

"Eat, it's okay to be hungry if you don't eat." After hesitating for a long time, Mei Qiugui gave in and picked up a steamed bun.

Since the light is so dim anyway, let’s just pretend there are sesame seeds on top.

"I can't eat this steamed bun. I'll eat some vegetables." Although He Siying was also hungry, she couldn't convince herself. She picked up some vegetables with chopsticks and put them in her bowl, ready to eat some.

But just when she was about to put the green vegetable into her mouth, a strip appeared inside.

"What is this?" He Siying picked up the strip with chopsticks.

"Earthworm, it must be that the vegetables were not washed very much and were cooked together." Li Teng took a look and answered He Siying.

"Earthworm...earthworm..." He Siying threw it away quickly, then lay on the side and retched.

"I've eaten several of them. It's considered protein after all." Li Teng said, reaching out with his chopsticks to fish out a lump of paste from the plate of meat dishes, sniffing it and stuffing it into his mouth.

"What is that?" Fang Jianguo asked Li Teng.

"It should be that various insects were crushed and made into a paste. Look, these must be the legs of the insects that have not been crushed." Li Teng picked out a leg from the paste and showed it to everyone.

"Could these be cockroach legs?" Fang Jianguo was highly doubtful.

"Remove the words 'should I' and trust your own intuition and judgment." Li Teng smiled, made another lump of paste and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Holy crap! This is beyond the limit of my endurance!" Fang Jianguo also lay on the table and retched.

"It's good to get used to it, but it doesn't really matter. I've eaten all kinds of bugs dug out from the ground and boiled in water. They didn't even add salt. At least they are processed and have salt, so they taste pretty good." Li Teng advised. A few words to Fang Jianguo.

"What did you do before? Boiled bugs..." Fang Jianguo resisted the urge to vomit and asked Li Teng.

After Mei Qiugui and He Siying heard the conversation between Li Teng and Fang Jianguo, they lay down at the table with pale faces and retched.

"It has nothing to do with work. When I was young, I liked to explore the wilderness. There were often times when I was hungry when there was not enough food. I was really forced to do that. I had to eat anything when I was hungry." Li Teng answered Fang Jianguo casually.
