Chapter 85: Anomaly

dn't possibly.""Wang, you brothers need not be modest. Now you are like a dragon hidden in the abyss, given time you will surely soar to the heavens and become a powerful dragon ruling the four seas!"...Lao Li's eyes were fixed on the Taoist priest, his face grave. "There's a possibility," he said, "it's best to be prepared."

The院長 immediately became more cautious, waving over the attending physician beside him. "From now on, everyone who enters these two patients' rooms must wear protective clothing and gloves!"

When the attending physician heard the dean's words, his heart skipped a beat. He had just directly contacted the patient. He was filled with grief and anger: "Damn it! Why did I run into this kind of thing! No way, I have to go check my blood work."

He replied to the dean and hurriedly turned around to find the head nurse. He told her the dean's request and arranged for everyone who had come into contact with patients today to go for a routine blood test.

In a short while, a nurse hurried up to the chief doctor carrying protective clothing and gloves. She trembled as she handed them to Dr. Li, then turned and ran away, avoiding this ward like it was filled with snakes and scorpions.

The Dean was helpless, but there was nothing he could do, so he could only pray that Old Li would be able to solve this ailment.

When Lao Li was dressed, he pushed the door and walked into the ward. The director retreated several steps when he opened the door, trying to stay as far away as possible.

Closing the ward door, Old Li extended his finger, placing it on the Taoist's right wrist. His brows furrowed deeper, then he moved his finger to the left wrist.

With the other hand, he flipped open the Taoist's eyelid and took a look. Then, he pried open his mouth and examined his tongue. Afterward, he let out a heavy sigh, "What a pity!"

He walked over to the village head's bedside again to check on him. His symptoms were worse than the Taoist's, and his pulse was almost undetectable.

He turned and walked out of the ward. Immediately, several nurses with bottles of alcohol sprayed him all over until they had covered Mr. Li's whole body.

Li Lao took off his protective suit and gloves, handing them to the nurse. He looked seriously at the director, his voice solemn, "We're in trouble now!"

The院長’s heart skipped a beat, and he looked at Lao Li with a wronged expression. “Lao Li, don’t scare me like that!”

"I didn't scare you, these two people were immediately isolated and cared for by dedicated personnel. The caregivers are in a semi-isolated state. Oh! I never thought I would have a day of shaking people."

He walked down the corridor, took out his phone, dialed a number, and spoke for about five minutes before hanging up.

Li Lao returned to the department and saw the院長’s instructions: “Give them glucose, maintain their body energy, and transfuse plasma continuously every day. Keep them alive for now. Let’s wait until tomorrow when the people I invited arrive before making any further decisions.”

Okay, shall we go back first

The dean probed with a question, he didn't want to stay here for a second. It was too dangerous.

When the director returned to the conference room, numerous doctors were still whispering and discussing amongst themselves. The director let out a heavy cough, and the conference room instantly fell silent.

"Old Li has thought of a way, you guys go first!"

Upon hearing this, the crowd surged to their feet and dispersed. Only a few white-haired elders remained seated, unmoving.

"As expected of Old Li, he even has a way to treat such strange symptoms."

"Alas! Traditional Chinese medicine is vast and profound, with a long history. It's shameful that we haven't figured out the cause of the illness even now!"

Mr. Li smiled and said, "Every trade has its own expert. Besides, I've only grasped the general cause of the illness right now. The specific treatment will have to wait until tomorrow."

"Also, Doctor, please arrange for the lab to draw blood samples and perform bacterial cultures. Let's see if we can use modern medicine to find a better solution."

"Okay! I'll arrange it right away."

The dean turned and left. After a few farewells, the crowd also rose and dispersed.

In the early hours of the morning, the village chief in bed suddenly opened his eyes. His bloodshot eyes stared blankly at the ceiling. Suddenly, like a zombie, he sat straight up using only the strength from his abdomen.

As if adapting, his body gradually became more flexible from the initial mechanical state. Only his eyes remained as dull as ever.

Looking at the empty blood bag, his eyes became greedy, he licked his lips, and removed all the instruments from his body.

At this time, a nurse in protective gear walked over with a large bag of blood bags. She must be here to change his blood.

Just as she switched on the light, the nurse saw the village head sitting up and screamed in fright. She turned and ran away.

As a nurse, she shouldn't have reacted that way. It was really because the village headman at this time seemed too sinister.

A ghastly pale face paired with bloodshot eyes, filled with the greedy desire and bloodthirsty madness.

But just as the nurse had taken two steps, her throat was clamped by a big hand. She let out another scream and flew backward, landing in the village chief's arms.

Before the nurse could react, the village chief directly opened his mouth and bit onto her neck, sucking greedily. She tried to struggle, but her arms and legs were tightly held by the village chief, so she could only scream incessantly.

Another nurse on duty heard the cries for help and rushed over to take a look. When she saw what was before her, she was so frightened that her legs went weak and she screamed in terror.

This time, the shouts woke up the other patients on the same floor.

"What the heck is all that howling at this hour! Get out of here..." I'm so annoyed!"

"Don't you have any sense of public decency! This is... damn it!"

"Ah! Murder!"

Since the village head was in the ward, the other patients didn't see him at first. But when they walked closer and saw what was before them, they cried out in surprise.

They instinctively turned around, wanting to flee as quickly as possible. They wished they had two more legs at that moment. In the blink of an eye, they were out of the hospital building, running and shouting non-stop!

With the commotion, the entire hospital ward woke up. They peered out the windows at the people still frantically running outside. After confirming it wasn't a hallucination, they didn't care about the reason; one by one, they all started to flee for their lives.

Some doctors, nurses, and security guards were confused about what was happening. They found out through inquiries that someone had been murdered on the third floor of the hospital ward.

When they arrived at the scene, they were also stunned by what they saw. A person was greedily sucking on a man's neck at that moment, and seven or eight people were already lying on the ground.

These men lying down wanted to be heroes and pull the village head away, but at this moment, the village head seemed like a wild beast, his strength and speed greatly increased. He grabbed several people and bit their necks directly. In just a short while, they were all killed by his poison.

Those who arrived late were like falling into an ice cave. Several nurses were so frightened that they trembled and secretly retreated backward. The security guards, on the other hand, took weapons and cautiously moved forward with their hands on a riot shield in one hand and a riot baton in the other.

"Blood...blood...I want blood..." The village head tossed the "food" in his hand and whirled around, scanning the surroundings. When he saw the crowd rushing over, he immediately let out an excited screech and lunged at them.

Several security guards, like they were facing a great enemy, with their muscles instantly tensing up, pointed steel forks toward the village chief.

The village head, like a beast, showed no intention of dodging and charged straight at the crowd.

When the steel forks came into contact with the village head, several security guards were astonished. "Such strength! Come quickly and help!"

Two male doctors, hearing the commotion, rushed forward to help. They gripped the tail of the steel fork tightly with both hands and pushed it forward with all their might.

...while others kept retreating, then ran away with all their might. When others saw someone running, they followed suit, desperately fleeing for their lives, afraid that if they were even a second slower, they would end up like the people on the ground.inally entered the ancient tomb.One of them suddenly screamed, scaring the others who panicked and fled in all directions. Only the Taoist stood still, looking down on the screamer with disdain."A tim...
