There are also countless mountain mosquitoes, lurking in the shed, waiting to prey on human blood.
Gao Jianfei found a quiet corner and sat down.
He racked his brains trying to figure out a way to escape.
Just now, those burly men stormed in and confiscated Gao Jianfei's phone. Now, it's impossible for Gao Jianfei to call the police.
What should we do?
At this moment, a young man with a non-local accent walked slowly to Gao Jianfei's side, squatted down, and asked, "Brother, are you here to sell your kidney too?"
Gao Jianfei looked up and glanced at the young man. He was still a child!
His youthful features and innocent eyes told Gao Jianfei that he was at most 16 or 17 years old!
Gao Jianfei couldn't help but ask, "Young man, you're so young, and you're not even a local from China. What are you doing here, leaving your hometown? Selling a kidney?"
The boy smiled, a very honest smile. "I'm from another province. My family is poor. My mother suffered a sudden heart attack and is in the hospital, being treated. My father sold all the cattle we had, but we still can't afford the medical bills. I had no choice but to come here because I heard that you can sell a kidney here. So I came here without telling my parents! I'm still in high school, and I took leave from school to come here."
After listening to the child's story, Gao Jianfei felt a tightness in his chest and was very uncomfortable. For a moment, he was speechless.
"By the way, brother, how much money did they promise to give you?" the boy asked in a low voice.
Gao Jianfei countered, "How much did they promise you?"
"40,000!" A glint of light flashed in the child's eyes. "They promised to give us 40,000!"
Gao Jianfei felt a pang of sadness and couldn't bear to look at the child any longer.
At this moment, the middle-aged man whose head had been beaten into a pig's head groaned, "Damn it, I came here yesterday. Last night, I overheard that a few days ago, a man named Zou Fugui had surgery at this clinic... the surgery failed, and he died! Money, money... you want their money, they want your life! The surgical equipment here is so outdated. I regret it so much now, I wanted to back out... and they beat me up like this... Ouch, I think my ribs are broken... Ouch..."
You want their money, they want your life!
Gao Jianfei was truly heartbroken!
Moreover, someone died a few days ago!
What should we do?
What should we do now?
To be honest, Gao Jianfei isn't too afraid of death right now. His life is on the verge of collapse, and there's not much difference between living and dying. But he can't just die like this; he still needs to raise money for his parents and aunt's retirement!
He still needs to avenge his mother!
The current situation is... Qiu Yuan and his gang are a bunch of scum, beasts, and devils! Having surgery here carries a risk of death, and even if the surgery is successful, don't expect these vampires to give you much money!
120,000?
That's just wishful thinking!
Gao Jianfei finally realized the truth.
"No, I have to leave! What should I do? What should I do?" Gao Jianfei clutched his hair, racking his brains. Just then, a flash of inspiration struck him…
"That's it! I can take a gamble! Damn it, I really can't think of a better way than this!"
Chapter Eight: Ghosts!
Chapter Eight: Ghosts!
The afternoon is very long.
After finally getting through the sunset, around 6 o'clock, the four burly men responsible for keeping watch outside started drinking ice-cold beer and eating delicious braised chicken wings, having a great time.
Gao Jianfei and his group of people queuing to sell their kidneys were unable to eat dinner because they were scheduled to have surgery that evening.
Gao Jianfei wasn't hungry, and in fact, he calmed down.
With only two hours left until the surgery, Gao Jianfei had already devised his only way to escape. Whether it would succeed or not was a complete gamble.
At 7:50 p.m., night began to fall.
At this moment, Qiu Yuan and Hong Ge came out of the clinic and into the makeshift shed. They had both drunk some alcohol and, reeking of it, shouted at Gao Jianfei, "You come out! You're the first to operate tonight! It's almost time, the surgeon and anesthesiologist are already in! Hurry up!"
Gao Jianfei stood up silently and walked out of the yak-hair felt shed. He was remarkably calm.
"Hmm? Xiao Gao, you've got a pretty good mentality. Alright, come with me," Qiu Yuan glanced at Gao Jianfei sideways, his eyes filled with mockery.
Gao Jianfei remained silent, following behind Qiu Yuan and Brother Hong. However, as he looked at their backs, a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes!
Upon entering the health center, Hong Ge locked the main gate behind him.
The three of them went up to the second floor together.
The clinic was empty, the chairs and wooden doors were very old, and it was already dark. The dim light from the bulbs gave it a gloomy feel.
Qiu Yuan and Hong Ge led Gao Jianfei to a small room on the second floor.
This is what is known as the operating room.
The small room was less than 10 square meters. On the left wall, there was a makeshift operating table. On the white sheets, there were clumps of dark red blood that had long since congealed. It looked disgusting.
There are 3 people in the operating room.
A young woman in a nurse's uniform was flirting with a middle-aged man wearing glasses. A small, elderly man, about 50 years old, sat nearby eating instant noodles. At that moment, he glanced up at Gao Jianfei, Qiu Yuan, and Hong Ge, slurped the noodles from his mouth, and said expressionlessly as he chewed, "After I finish my noodles, I'll start the surgery immediately."
Qiu Yuan said with a smile, "Dr. Zuo, please eat slowly, don't rush. Hong Ge, Fei Ji Ge, and I are outside. If this kid causes trouble, just give us a shout and we'll come in and deal with him!"
After saying that, Qiu Yuan and Hong Ge left the operating room and closed the door behind them.
Gao Jianfei briefly observed the operating room environment, and then took the initiative to walk to the operating table and sit down.
Dr. Zuo, who was eating instant noodles, finished the soup, casually put the bowl on the table next to him, wiped his mouth, and looked at Gao Jianfei with slight surprise, "Young man, I rarely see anyone as calm as you before surgery."
Gao Jianfei sneered, "I haven't done anything wrong, why should I panic? To be honest, whether I live or die after you perform the surgery is still hard to say!"
Dr. Zuo actually nodded. "Indeed, I cannot guarantee that the surgery will be 100% successful. However, the number of successful surgeries far outweighs the number of failures. Last year, we performed a total of 311 surgeries, with only 12 failures, which is not bad."
Twelve failures mean that twelve precious lives will be lost forever on this operating table!
When Dr. Zuo, the nurse, and the middle-aged man who looked like an anesthesiologist described these things, their faces were surprisingly calm. At this moment, in Gao Jianfei's eyes, they were nothing less than demons who disregarded human life!
"Heh, you killed 12 people, don't you have nightmares?" Gao Jianfei said mockingly.
At this moment, the expressions of the three medical staff members changed. The nurse, with a stern face, snapped at Gao Jianfei, "Stop chattering! Watch your words, or... this surgery might end in failure!" There was a threatening element in her eyes.
Gao Jianfei smiled. "My life is hanging in the balance. I want to have a smoke. Perhaps this will be the last cigarette of my life. Is that too much to ask?"
Dr. Zuo shrugged. "No problem!" He paused, then sneered, "Young man, to be honest, I don't like you very much, so I really can't guarantee you anything! Besides, I agree with you. If you want to smoke, go ahead. This cigarette might very well be the last one you ever smoke!"
Gao Jianfei ignored him, took out his cigarette, lit it, and took a deep drag. He murmured, "Now I understand something… the most terrifying thing in this world isn't floods or ferocious beasts, nor is it so-called ghosts, but… people!"
As he spoke, Gao Jianfei moved his mind, and the virtual display screen popped up and floated in front of him!
Just as Gao Jianfei had expected, no one else could see this virtual display screen except for him!
Look at Dr. Zuo and the other two, they're looking at Gao Jianfei with a mocking expression!
Gao Jianfei exhaled an oval-shaped smoke ring, thinking, "It's time to take a gamble! Man proposes, God disposes!"
They're risking their lives!
He focused his attention entirely on the virtual display screen...
The Exorcist: Gao Jianfei
Age: 22
Level: 1
Exorcism points: 4, 6
Experience: 1
Experience required to upgrade to Level 2 Exorcist: 999
Basic functions:
1,
2. "Obvious"
Huh... Gao Jianfei noticed that his exorcism points had increased by "1" and his experience points had also increased by "1". He slapped his forehead and suddenly realized that his previous attempt to piece together Zhang Dalin's ghost and let it live in the ghost's den had brought him "1" experience point, and his exorcism points had also increased by "1"!
Of course, now is not the time to delve into such trivial matters, Gao Jianfei quickly clicked on the "function"...
"Basic: Ghosts of the dead within a 5-kilometer radius."
Advanced: Based on the ghost's name in life.
Note: Exorcist Gao Jianfei, Level 1, can only handle Level 1 ghosts.
Each time, it costs 1 Exorcism Point.
Gao Jianfei selected "Advanced," and immediately a small prompt box popped up...
(Please enter the name of the ghost you wish to see)
Gao Jianfei had a sudden thought... Zou Fugui!
Who is Zou Fugui?
In fact, Gao Jianfei didn't know him either!
However, wasn't that middle-aged man in the yurt who was beaten until his head looked like a pig's and whose ribs seemed to be broken just now saying that a few days ago, a man named "Zou Fugui" died in this clinic due to a failed surgery?
The ghost Gao Jianfei is looking for is Zou Fugui, who was murdered by this group of vampires...
(Are you sure you want to proceed with the advanced level? This will cost you 1 Exorcism Point.)
(whether)
Gao Jianfei immediately clicked "Yes" with his mind.
Suddenly, another box popped up, with radio wave-like patterns appearing inside, and those patterns began to roll.
Within the box, chaotic electrical waves churned and stirred, emitting a strange, faint hissing sound!
A few seconds later, the radio waves in the box gradually disappeared, and in their place were rows of black and white portraits and some text descriptions.
Ghost's name, ghost level, age in life, gender, occupation in life, special skills in life, cause of death.
Zou Fugui, 1, 35, male, unemployed, no history of surgery failure.
Zou Fugui, 1.26, male, hot pot restaurant owner, no history of food poisoning.
Zou Fugui, 1.78 years old, male, retired, none, passed away due to illness...
