Evil Begets Evil!

Eerie!

At the county hospital’s emergency department, they had never encountered such a bizarre incident.

There were no signs of poisoning or illness, yet there was intermittent abdominal pain and diarrhea.

Each time, the pain was so severe that it felt like dying, and the diarrhea left them weak and listless.

They had tried every method, but nothing could stop the pain or the diarrhea.

Faced with such a tricky ailment, the county hospital was out of options.

They had to transfer the patient to another hospital urgently.

Upon arrival at the provincial hospital, which had stronger medical capabilities, it was already 7 a.m., and various examinations and lab work began immediately.

When Cheng Bao and the others woke up, they received two pieces of news, one good and one bad.

The good news was that, using the most advanced imported medical equipment and after careful analysis, they were not poisoned.

Blood, gastric fluid, bile, intestinal fluid, urine, bone marrow…

They had analyzed everything they could think of and found no trace of toxins or diseases.

The bad news, after the team of experts evaluated and analyzed, was that they could not find the cause of the illness.

They needed to observe the full process of the ailment’s onset for a detailed diagnosis.

And so…

A few people were gathered in one ward, the beds stripped of their sheets and covers, and each was dressed in paper diapers.

The medical experts and various instruments and equipment were ready for action.

When the seven were not in the throes of the disease, they were just like normal people.

Eating and drinking without any anomalies.

But when the illness struck…

It began like the onset of a seizure, with the whole body trembling and curling into a ball on the bed with abdominal pain.

Then came twisting and rolling, clenched teeth and glaring eyes, the whole body sweating profusely, skin burning red and hot.

Finally, amid gurgling sounds, they vomited and defecated, with a stench that was unbearable.

The experts were all dumbfounded.

What kind of illness was this?

Everyone was utterly confused, not understanding at all.

After the janitors helped clean up, the experts immediately began their consultations.

Claims of poisoning had been made, but since no poisonous substances were found in the body, they couldn’t even call the police.

After all, where was the evidence?

Could it be that they were cursed or had fallen victim to evil spells?

However, the experts did not believe in such superstitious nonsense.

After the consultation, they hypothesized it might be due to a stealthy bacterium.

A bacterium that mimics the body’s cells would naturally not be identifiable in the lab as a toxin.

But it erupts periodically, wreaking havoc on the patients’ internal organs.

In the long run, they would either die of exhaustion from diarrhea or succumb to organ failure.

What kind of bacterium could be so potent?

Could it spread and infect other people and livestock?

In the human body, tens of thousands of different bacteria and germs reside – which one among them could be the new and harmful strain?

…

Mystery diseases are difficult to cure precisely because their causes are hard to find.

This happened to be the plight of Cheng Bao and his companions.

The experts said the strange illness might be caused by an unusual bacterium, but they could not specify which one or how to eradicate it.

They could only conduct further extractions and analyses and then identify them one by one…

It was truly like looking for a needle in a haystack.

No one knew how long it would take to find the pathogenic bacterium and develop a method to specifically kill it.

So, their deaths were inevitable; the only question was how soon it would be.

In an attempt to delay death as much as possible…

To convene more disease control experts…

They could only replenish large amounts of nutrients when they were not ill.

Thus, Hong Cheng and the others began an endless cycle of ‘eat, then defecate; defecate, then eat,’ trapped in intolerable suffering.

…

In the afternoon.

Hong Cheng lay on the hospital bed, exhausted, his complexion already waxy yellow, with barely enough strength to breathe.

What made it even worse was the bad news coming from the phone call.

Wu Jie and his family had driven to Tianyuan by themselves early in the morning, and by the afternoon, they probably had already crossed the provincial border.

Through sweet-talking, they managed to get the phone numbers of Wu Jianguo and Wu Jie.

And then…

all turned off!

At that moment, Hong Cheng had a complete understanding.

In Rotten Mud Village, Wu Jie had said not to blame him for not having been given a chance.

But could those two green pills, mashed together from tree leaves and weeds, really be the antidote?

At the brink of death, Hong Cheng had no choice but to believe.

Hastily, he sent people to search the area where they had parked, launching a thorough search.

But how could they possibly find it?

When Hong Cheng had thrown them with all his might, they had either scattered in mid-air or shattered on impact.

Unable to find the green pills, they didn’t overlook the roadside weeds and leaves.

Hong Cheng had his people inspect closely, any tree or grass that looked like it could have been plucked by Wu Jie was taken to the provincial hospital.

Cheng Bao was even more ferocious.

He felt that there was something very peculiar about the situation; what if it was an evil spirit invading the body, a curse, or they were harmed by some demon spell…

Anyway, Master Liu was also in the provincial hospital, so Cheng Bao had someone wheel him into Liu Er’s room.

Desperate times call for desperate measures!

Liu Er was known as Master Liu, claiming to be proficient in geomancy, Feng Shui, and exorcising evil spirits.

But no matter how skilled he was, he hadn’t foreseen the calamity that would befall him that night.

He didn’t predict that he would now be lying in a hospital bed recuperating, suffering from a concussion and a back injury, unable to care for himself.

Though not deadly, his life was a living agony.

So, what’s the cure?

Cheng Bao talked at length, but Liu Er was in a daze; having survived a blow to the back of the head with a shovel, he was already fortunate to be alive.

Returning to his room, Cheng Bao was in utter despair.

He had barely lain on the hospital bed for long when the abdominal pains started again, so intense that he couldn’t even cry out for his mother.

Tortured over and over again, it truly felt worse than death.

In the unbearable recurring agony, the five Black Dog brothers committed suicide one after another.

Some hid in the bathroom and slit their wrists.

Some asked the doctors to medicate them into a painless death.

Some pulled out their IV and oxygen tubes, passively awaiting death.

…

The Black Dog brothers had done many evils, and now they met with retribution, their dead bodies used for scientific research even after death.

They had the audacity to end their own lives in their wickedness, but Cheng Bao and Hong Cheng didn’t have the courage to commit suicide.

They were wealthy and powerful and very afraid of dying!

Even in the best hospitals, they were still subjected to torture over and over again.

This feeling was like falling into the endless hells, hopeless for life and endlessly in pain.

Evening.

Cheng Bao, nearly driven insane by torture, received devastating news from the county hospital.

An added agony was that he actually received his own critical condition notification.

It was like being handed a death sentence, the end not far off.

Filled with rage, Cheng Bao and Hong Cheng left their wills.

After entrusting relatives and friends to handle their estates and affairs, they allocated all their money for use against Wu Jie.

A huge reward was offered, he must be killed!

Dawn.

Unable to endure the repeated torment and unwilling to be researched like lab rats by numerous experts, they took advantage of the temporary absence of medical staff during the morning shift change and resolutely committed suicide.

When the news spread back to the county, the people celebrated joyously, beating drums, gongs, and setting off firecrackers.

As for the two relatives entrusted with the will, they took the urns back to the county town to handle the affairs and dispose of the properties.

About hiring someone for revenge…

Heh, with Cheng Bao and Hong Cheng dead, what did it matter if Wu Jie was finished off or not?

Who would fight against money?

If you’re not greedy for free, you’re not greedy at all!

…

Morning.

The Jeep left the highway; Tianyuan had arrived.

Tang Xiao had booked a hotel in advance near her apartment.

Just as the car arrived at the hotel entrance, Tang Xiao and her daughter, who had been waiting, hurried forward to greet them.

But at that moment, something unexpected happened…
