Rules of the Strange: Starting with the Weird Peppa Pig

Page 97

"It's not like no one has ever gone in before; without exception, none of them have ever come out."

You're so young, but judging from your clothes and appearance, you must be a big boss. You have such a wonderful life.

Although we're crying here, we already know in our hearts that our daughter is most likely already…

She choked up for a moment, then continued.

"We just missed her so much, that's why we came to the hospital entrance to see her. Anyway, thank you, young man."

Looking at the two elderly people, Lucas felt even more sorry for them.

Anyway, he has no wife or daughters. His parents left him a sum of money and a mansion when he was a child, and then went on a world tour and haven't come back yet.

He didn't know whether his parents were alive or dead, and since he didn't have a strong emotional bond with them, he had no lingering attachments.

Ultimately, it's better to do something meaningful than to live a life of mere survival in chaos.

There must be more than just this elderly couple's relatives in this hospital.

There are so many people around with sad expressions, and there must be your relatives and friends in the hospital.

With this burning passion, what if I could, like Wuyin from the Dragon Kingdom, conquer this ghost story dungeon?

The more Lucas thought about it, the more his blood boiled. Looking at the gate shrouded in black mist, it didn't seem so terrifying anymore.

He patted the two elderly people on the shoulder and said.

"Don't worry, just tell me your daughter's room number and floor. What if I can rescue her?"

Chapter 128, First Hospital Dungeon Unlocked

Upon hearing Lucas's words, the old lady's expression softened slightly, and she spoke up.

"My daughter is in room 6018 on the 6th floor of the obstetrics and gynecology department. That room is a VIP room, and my daughter is the only one in it."

But young man, you really need to think this through, because no one who goes in has ever come out again.

"Old woman, I am a little selfish; I wanted you to see my daughter, but I'm not so heartless as to not value your life. I still advise you not to go."

Lucas said to the old woman.

"It doesn't matter, anyway, I have no father or mother, no wife or daughter, and I have no worries in life."

"It's better to be a hero than to live an ordinary life."

Hearing what Lucas said, the old lady felt even more sorry for the young man.

But before she could say anything, she heard Lucas suddenly say something with a solemn expression.

"The meaning of life lies not in its length, but in its breadth. I cannot decide the length of my life, but I can decide its breadth."

Although the elderly couple couldn't understand what he was babbling, they inexplicably felt that what the young man was saying was somewhat sacred, and their expressions became serious as they nodded.

Lucas prepared to step into the hospital entrance, under the revered gazes of the two elderly men.

Just as he was about to step inside, the others spotted this stubborn hero and swarmed around him.

"Are you going to the hospital? Please, please help me check on my son. He's in bed number 30, ward 7008 in the orthopedics department!"

"Please, please help me check on my grandfather! He's in bed number 3 on the fourth floor of the ICU!"

"Please check on my dear girl. She's in room 1504 of building 15 in the neurology department. She was taken to the neurology department because she was playing with abstract concepts."

Everyone started rattling off the apartment numbers and hospital rooms of their family and friends, leaving Lucas completely bewildered.

He raised his hand and addressed the crowd.

"Everyone, I will do my best to conquer the ghost story dungeon of this building and dispel all the eeriness of this building."

If I haven't dispelled the eeriness of this building in half a month, then you don't need to wait any longer.

After saying that, Lucas turned and walked towards the hospital.

At that moment, among the three who were relaxing at home playing games with their younger sister, Wuyin suddenly sneezed.

He thought to himself: Could it be that someone is thinking about me? It seems my charm is still too great.

He didn't pay much attention at first, but a few seconds later, Wuyin knew who was thinking about him.

[Strange Tales Dungeon: The First Central Hospital has been forcibly triggered; loading the Strange Tales Dungeon is in progress.]

This is a two-player instance. Chosen ones from two different countries will be randomly selected to enter the instance. Chosen ones from each country, please be prepared.

[The First Central Hospital Ghost Stories instance has finished loading. Difficulty unknown. We wish all chosen ones a pleasant journey.]

Almost simultaneously, a sharp pain shot through Wuyin's brow, and a white light descended, enveloping him and Li Fan.

He couldn't help but mentally complain: Anyone can think of me, but why does it have to be the Ghost Story instance that's thinking of me?

My three-day holiday isn't over yet, and the poor animals are going to be at someone's mercy again.

So, who was it that had nothing better to do than trigger this ghost story instance...?

After the light disappeared, only Wuxin remained in the living room.

But Wu Xin had no time to grieve. She quickly arranged the phones that Wu Yin and Li Fan had dropped, and then began to skillfully operate the three phones with both hands until she won the game. Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.

But after winning the game, looking at the empty living room, she felt even more lonely...

My teammates in the last game:

How come two idiots suddenly became smart and managed to win?!

……

The light gradually faded, and a smell of disinfectant wafted to my nose.

When Wuyin opened her eyes, all she saw was a white ceiling and a hanger with an IV drip bottle inside, into which a dark red liquid was being infused into her body.

Wu Yin's pupils widened suddenly, and she quickly pulled out the needle from her hand, feeling extremely afraid that the unknown liquid might have some effect on her body.

He didn't feel any physical discomfort, only his mental state dropped by 2%, so he decided to ignore it for the time being.

Blood was seeping from his hand. He turned his head and saw cotton swabs on the bedside table. He picked up the cotton swabs and pressed them against the wound before starting to observe the surroundings of the ward.

Li Fan was sleeping on another bed, but there was no IV needle in his hand.

At this moment, Li Fan slowly opened his eyes, then sat up abruptly and looked around. He breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that familiar figure.

Wuyin spoke.

"I'll search the room. Go outside and check the situation. If anything unexpected happens, come back to the ward immediately, understand?"

Li Fan also put away his usual playful smile, nodded seriously, and immediately drifted away from the ward.

Wuyin searched through the sheets and bedside table in the hospital bed, but only found some disinfectant supplies on the bedside table. She did not find any rules or notices.

He pondered for a moment, then suddenly turned to look at the IV bottle that had just been injected into his body.

The IV bottle was filled with dark red liquid, and it was impossible to see what was inside.

The reason why Wuyin started by injecting IV fluid into the Chosen One's body at the beginning might be because there might be some clues inside the IV bottle after the fluid is finished.

After all, no matter how difficult a ghost story is, it won't inexplicably cause a negative impact right from the start. The reason for the negative impact is likely that there are some clues inside.

Wuyin, adhering to the principle of "better to kill the innocent than let the guilty go free," violently opened the IV bottle containing red liquid, only to find a small plastic bag inside.

Open the plastic bag; inside is a note with the following rules written on it.

Welcome to the First Central Hospital of the United States. Patients receiving treatment here must abide by the following rules:

Rule 1: If you come here for treatment, you must accept the treatment properly. Don't worry, we will take responsibility for your life.

Rule Two: Do not assault doctors or nurses; they are angels in white, gods with a spirit of selfless dedication.

Rule 3: Please do not communicate with other patients in other rooms, as you all need quiet rest.

Rule 4: You may not leave this hospital until your illness is cured.

Rule 5: This hospital has 18 floors. Please remember that! Only 18 floors!

Rule Six: Please bring sufficient medical funds for treatment. If you do not have enough funds, you will be subject to further penalties.

Rule Seven: If you encounter it... run away quickly.

Wuyin frowned. The second half of Rule Six was a bunch of gibberish, but this also indicated that if you didn't bring enough medical money, the consequences would be extremely dire.

Rule Seven is quite interesting; who exactly is it?

Furthermore, Rule Seven tells you to run away quickly without any reason, which may indicate that there is some important clue.

He looked at the rules above again, preparing to analyze them carefully, when Li Fan rushed in from outside in a panic.

Chapter 129 The Actor's Silence

"Quickly, quickly put the IV needle back into your arm."

I just saw the nurses making their rounds outside. One patient went crazy and pulled out his IV, and was instantly killed on the spot by that terrifying nurse…”

Before Li Fan could finish speaking, he saw the scene in the ward and his eyes widened instantly.

He saw the broken IV bottle in Wuyin's hand and the dark red liquid that had spilled all over the floor, and his heart sank instantly.

Wuyin stood innocently on the liquid, as if he hadn't done anything at all.

Li Fan's inner thoughts: You're innocent my ass!

The chipless device outside the screen suddenly sneezed.

"Achoo! Who is it? Who's talking bad about me?"

Li Fan looked somewhat anxious at this moment.

"Oh no, what should we do now?"

The nurse will find our room soon. Why don't you hide under the bed?

He was so anxious that he started talking nonsense.

Wuyin simply sat on the bed, stuffed the note under the mattress, and said with an indifferent expression.

"What's the rush? I'm here, why are you in such a hurry? You really don't trust me enough."
