Chapter 26 The Howling of the Dead
At this moment, Gu Jun was in an iron cage and stood next to the human tree.
He was not without psychological pressure. The sense of confinement caused by the iron cage and the sense of magnitude of the human tree were pressing against the nerves in his body, making him want to take a deep breath.
But Gu Jun didn't. Taking a deep breath in the cage was definitely a bad idea. He felt like he fell into the formalin pond after taking a light breath.
Professor Qin and the others were staring at it. Gu Jun knew that he could not be cowardly and continued to carefully observe the human tree in front of him. The skin of these twisted corpses had black liquid that was more obvious than those under the skin of those general teachers. They were like dead trees, without corpse spots, but they were definitely the most strange and filthy skin he had ever seen.
But he thought that if this strange shape was alive and these black liquids were flowing back and forth like river water, it would be a scene with very vigorous vitality.
Gu Jun looked at a head on the "tree trunk" again, and his eyes were almost looking straight at him.
Or, it should be said, eyeball.
The cornea of the eyeball is so cloudy that the pupils can no longer be seen.
But he felt something staring at him through these eyes from the dark abyss.
"..." Gu Jun suddenly felt an impulse in his heart, and then he became stronger and stronger, wanting to reach out and touch the human tree...
Seeing Gu Jun slowly lifting his hand, the students from all schools around him were very worried. What was this guy going to do?
At this moment, the eyes that Gu Jun was facing suddenly seemed to come alive. He was not sure if the pupils he saw were illusions, but he clearly saw that the mouth of the head was slightly open and suddenly made a hissing rustling sound!
It is not the sound that airflow makes the vocal cords vibrate, but the vocal organs such as the vocal cords, throat, mouth and nose are rubbing and squeezing and ringing.
Hoarse and low, but can be identified: "Save, save me..."
Gu Jun's heart was suffocated, his hands trembled in the air, and his feet were almost taking a few steps back, but he forced himself to resist the instinctive panic. He could bear it because he had heard this sound yesterday, just in the call to Gurong Village...
But suddenly, the other heads on the human tree also moved together, and more than a dozen faces that had long been dead burst into wild and unpleasant wails: "I'm not dead..." "Ah, no!" "It hurts so much..." "Save me!" "Why..."
All the howlings rushed into his ears like a storm, and Gu Jun's body stiffened a little uncontrollably.
Is there really only one villager on the other end of the phone yesterday?
"Ah!!!" The seats around the venue immediately burst into chaotic screams. Many students collapsed on their seats, while many students jumped up in fear. Some of their minds were forever sucked away by this scene, waiting to wake up in the nightmare.
The judges paid attention to the surroundings. These students who were so scared that they were kicked out. Maybe they would become tenacious after adapting, but the department did not need them for the time being. I hope the situation will never be serious enough to require them. After such a round of screening, less than one-tenth of the students who remain qualified for the election were left.
As for those teachers and professors, although they can still calm down, they were not considered by the department from the beginning.
Because the department needs young people, young people have sufficient plasticity. And many ordinary positions also require these teachers and professors.
Professor Qin kept looking at Gu Jun and paying attention to his every move.
At this time, the entire human tree suddenly made a sharp and sharp sound more than ten times more!
This whistle from hell seemed to melt the entire gym into pieces.
"Ghost, ghost..." More students were frightened and a few even burst into tears.
When some animals see tigers, even if they have never seen them before, even if it is a fake mutton tiger, they will be very scared and panicked and just want to escape. This is fear engraved in the genes. Now this sound is tigers, and humans are those animals. Everyone cannot understand it, they only know that they are panic and scared.
"Hu." Gu Jun took a deep breath and adjusted his breath to prevent his instinctive fear from knocking down.
However, the consciousness thinks this way, but the subconscious mind is obviously not. His body is stiff and he can't move anymore... What should I do?
From the corner of his eyes, he saw Professor Qin and the others calmly looking, so he definitely didn't expect him to pass this assessment, a group of sadistic men.
"Even if I come in, there should be no real danger." Gu Jun's mind was turned on, calming himself, digesting and thinking, "And there is a way to deal with it. Why does the human body tree suddenly make a sound? What's the difference? Did I walk in? There should be some kind of trigger here..."
The more feared you are, the more you cannot escape.
While thinking, Gu Jun looked at the turbid eyes on the human tree again, and the eyes of other heads.
Under the pressure brought by the whistling, he felt as if he had noticed the slight changes in these eyes, and his pupils became dilated...
Under normal circumstances, the cornea of a person's eyes will become turbid after death due to loss of water. The longer the death time, the more turbid it becomes, until the pupil is not visible. This is an irreversible corpse phenomenon. Forensics can estimate the time of death based on the degree of corneal turbidity.
Even if you die shortly after you die, your pupils will no longer shrink or spread out as your smooth muscles become loose, and will only be of medium size.
But now these dead people from the human body tree seem to be alive again.
Did I wake them up? Gu Jun's feeling of trying to touch the human tree just now surged up again, or were they calling me?
Let's give it a try. He condensed his eyes and raised his hand again. This time he did not stop, but stretched out to close the eyelids of the face. The orbicularis muscles were tightly stretched and had an abnormal force, so that he needed to exercise hard to stroke.
When the eyelids close, the head quickly calms down.
So that's the case. Gu Jun continued to close his other eyes and silently said sorry to them: I can't save you, please rest in peace.
"Huh." This is not the scene envisioned by the judges. Look at me, I look at you, and you all have a surprise.
This kid has this kind of behavior when facing a human tree for the first time. It's so calm and rational! This time he may have really picked up a treasure.
As the whistling gradually weakened, the students also saw Gu Jun's response clearly, and were suddenly excited. The shock around them stopped... Everyone gritted their teeth and reorganized their spirits. Isn't it just a zombie fraud? There is nothing to be afraid of, medical dogs are fearless!
"Well..." Professor Qin looked at Gu Jun and closed his eyes that were reaching his head. He felt a little more satisfied. He didn't know about medical skills, but the young man's psychological quality was very good. "Student Gu, stop, okay, you come out."
Squeak, the staff went up to open the cage door.
Gu Jun glanced at the human tree again before walking out smoothly. As soon as he left, the heads that had not closed their eyes gradually stopped wailing.
When Gu Jun walked out of the iron cage, the audience suddenly burst into applause, the young and the Jihua Medical... Many students from various universities spontaneously applauded Gu Jun. Of course, the students of Dongda University were even more applauded by their own people. Gu Jun walked back to the seat and was like a hero returning in triumph.
"You are so good this time."
"You're so calm."
Gu Jun returned to his seat in front of everyone's praise. Professor Gu gave him a thumbs up. Xu Hai, Zhang Haoran and He Yuhan were excited to worship him. The three of them were scared just now. He had saved their lives.
But until she sat down at the seat, Gu Jun's nerves relaxed slightly, and the deformed terror and unique beauty of the human tree still lingered in her heart...
He was still thinking about the meaning of the screaming. Maybe it was meaningless at all, maybe it was just that humans couldn't understand it.
"Hao Jun." Cai Zixuan sighed from the side, "You walked into the iron cage and reminded me of Zhao Zilong walking up the Changban slope."
Wang Ruoxiang, who was sitting on the other side of him, patted him and asked, "Actually, were you feeling a little nervous just now?" She noticed that he was still a little nervous and deliberately joked.
"No." Gu Jun smiled self-deprecatingly, "But there are two in panic." Thank you, the squad leader, I'm fine.
