    "I think it's possible," Zhao Qinghan nodded and said, "If the ages of the deceased on the spirit card are true, this kind of longevity secret does have great research value."

    "And the local villagers are very good...research materials." Cheng Mengyun sighed, she thought of the pinholes on Qiaoqiao's limbs, as well as those large and small scars.

    She doesn't want to call people "research material," but that's not the case for some who have abandoned their conscience.

    If she is taken back by the K City base, she will be treated the same way, right? Cheng Mengyun couldn't help but fight a cold war.

    "The first five years were just when the biological sciences were on the rise," Yinhua's voice was a little cold. "The privatization of hospitals and pharmaceutical companies was also very serious during that time."

    "Hey, Huazi, do you still understand this?" Cheng Mengyun asked curiously.

    Yinhua nodded: "I received some unrequited orders before, and several families had to stop treating patients because they couldn't pay the huge medical bills. Better private hospitals have very expensive hospitalization fees, and some have to arrange number to live."

    "Alas... they are all poor people..." Cheng Mengyun suddenly realized and clapped his hands, "Yes, I remembered, I still remember that a few years ago, medical incidents were always on the hot search. "

    The privatization of hospitals and pharmaceutical companies has intensified. Before that, a data survey team found that more than 90% of hospitals and pharmaceutical companies in the country are controlled by private companies, and some common or rare drugs are monopolized by those big companies.

    Zhao Qinghan was sitting on another wooden chair, and she began to recall in her mind: "If I remember correctly, there were famous big companies in the biological sciences a few years ago, Rende Hospital, Xiangming Pharmaceutical Company, Huize Biotechnology company."

    As soon as Zhao Qinghan mentioned it, the other two remembered these three companies because they were indeed famous.

    Rende Hospital is a nationwide chain of general hospitals with decades of history. Later, it was gradually privatized. The originally cheap registration fees, hospitalization fees, examination fees and other expenses have skyrocketed, and medical incidents have also occurred frequently. The reputation fell directly from the early good to the low, and became synonymous with "black heart hospital".

    Xiangming Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. has been established for a relatively short time. This company is rather peculiar. It is not famous for some medicines for special diseases or popular epidemics, but for health care products and cosmetic medicines. The marketing methods are extremely bells and whistles, trying to launch a variety of medicines that prolong life, self-cultivation, easy weight loss, beauty and beauty, and many customers also eat this set. The company also makes part-time medical equipment.

    Huize Biotechnology Co., Ltd. can be said to be a miracle in recent years. It has become a monopoly giant in the industry in just a few years after its establishment. He has made outstanding contributions to mental diseases, special diseases, and major diseases, so he has received awards and permanent honors. However, Huize Biotechnology Co., Ltd. has been criticized for its low drug productivity and high prices. Later, it was also involved in public opinion turmoil for allegedly carrying out researches such as cloning and human gene editing that violated the bottom line of morality.

    These three giants have their own characteristics, each with a bit of legend, and in recent years, there have been many discussions about these three companies, so the three of Cheng Mengyun have some knowledge of these three companies.

    "Why are any of them quite suspicious." Cheng Mengyun exchanged the information he had learned with several other teammates, and couldn't help feeling troubled.

    The main reason is that the researchers in this Longevity Village are quite thieves. They don't keep anything that can reveal their identities. There are no personal belongings in the bedrooms used as dormitories. It is impossible to judge what forces these researchers belong to.

    "I want to go to the small attic to open the coffin." Cheng Mengyun pouted.

    The exodus of zombies should have happened suddenly, and maybe there is information left on those researchers. It's a pity that Qiaoqiao is here, and the three of them have no excuse as "colleagues".

    Zhao Qinghan looked at Cheng Mengyun, who was full of regret, once again.

    "Maybe it's not these three, some small companies in the field of bioscience are also crazy." Yinhua said.

    Because the relevant market is firmly occupied by these three giants, some small companies can't even drink broth, and some even take crooked ways to seize the market.

    Cheng Mengyun looked at the serious discussion of the three including himself, and suddenly laughed: "It's good not to run for your life, we can still take time to deduce the secret of Longevity Village, and the mystery of the birth of the end of the world, hehe, it's really cool. "

    When the power is cut off, you cannot access the Internet, you have to find something to play. Cheng Mengyun always took Yinhua out for a walk at the resort, not only to exercise his skills in fighting zombies, but also to pass the time. She was busy in the K City base before, and now she can reason about big problems when she is free, just like playing a script to kill.

    "What if we really launch Longevity Village or the culprit of the end times?" Yinhua also laughed.

    "I'll be the first to kill the culprit, to do this kind of anti-humanity thing, and it's impossible to do without a death sentence." Cheng Mengyun was arrogant and sharpened his sword.

    Zhao Qinghan was also infected by this enthusiasm. Her shallow pupils overflowed with a smile, and the whole person was like an iceberg melting: "The culprit really has no need to live."

    "I think the base in City A is very suspicious. It only takes two weeks to produce special medicines in the last days. Is it really possible under normal circumstances?" Cheng Mengyun thought of the base in City A, which monopolized special medicines.

    "City A has the branches of the three giants, and the special medicine may be researched by Huize Biotechnology Company." Yinhua recalled.

    Cheng Mengyun was silent, and it was indeed a bit of that arrogant company, whether it was an arrogant attitude or the characteristics of drugs with high prices and low output.

    The three of them happily analyzed the culprit for a while, and Cheng Mengyun also took the opportunity to learn some metaphysical knowledge from the two "Feng Shui masters".

    There is also a benefit of being stationed at this house. When they were cleaning the kitchen yesterday, they found rusty farm tools, which happened to have shovels and hoes. After chatting, the three of them started looking for stones to polish their agricultural tools, and Cheng Mengyun also sharpened his butterfly/knife by the way.

    After lunch, reserve lunch for Qiaoqiao who is still sleeping. Cheng Mengyun therefore made a proposal that has been haunting her for a long time:

    Go to the graveyard behind the village.

    The houses in the entire village were basically raided, and now only the graves behind the village have not been explored. Whether it is to understand the environment of the station, or to learn about Longevity Village, it is necessary to visit.

    Yinhua and Zhao Qinghan agreed unanimously.

    Don't worry about Qiaoqiao staying alone in the room, so Zhao Qinghan stood in the middle of the line holding the sleeping Qiaoqiao, Cheng Mengyun led as usual, and Yinhua stood at the end of the line. The three of them changed into clothes that were easy to move around, put on simple luggage on their backs, and started heading towards the graveyard.

    The chosen station is close to the small second-floor attic at the end of the village, so the graveyard is not far away.

    The few people walked quickly, bypassing the small attic, and the low graveyard came into view.

    Weeds are overgrown on the cemetery, and the old locust tree without leaves is standing lifelessly beside it. The white cloth strips on the branches are swaying with the wind. Looking from a distance, it seems that countless hands are calling for souls.

    The tombstones are scattered scattered from the bottom to the top of the hill, and a white paper lantern is supported by a small wooden stick beside each tombstone.

    "This is what you said, Huazi. When the deceased returns home from Yellow Springs Road, they must light a lamp at the grave, so that the deceased will not get lost." Cheng Mengyun began to try to analyze the metaphysical knowledge he had learned in the morning.

    Yinhua played with the swinging stick, throwing it up and down like juggling, and every time the swinging stick fell, he could just catch it with his hand: "Yes, be careful when you open the way."

    At this moment, Qiaoqiao's eyelashes flickered in Zhao Qinghan's arms, and she woke up dimly. When she saw where the three of them were heading, she shrank into Zhao Qinghan's arms in fear: "Brother and sister, are you going to the graveyard?"

    "Yeah, Qiaoqiao, do you know anything about that mountain?" Seeing the resident waking up, Cheng Mengyun immediately leaned over and asked, and she also took out Qiaoqiao's lunch, a simple sandwich, from her backpack.

    The village is already evil enough, a cellar alone has so many twists and turns, and a graveyard with such a large area may be even more evil.

    "Qiaoqiao doesn't know, the place is often surrounded, and only some uncles and aunts can go in," Qiaoqiao wrinkled her face, "sometimes there are always rumbling noises."

    "The rumbling sound?" Seeing that Qiaoqiao really didn't understand, Cheng Mengyun gave her lunch to Qiaoqiao, and she approached the cemetery step by step.

    There are only sporadic weeds on the cemetery, and many weeds look lifeless and grow softly.

    Cheng Mengyun just took a few steps into the cemetery when she realized that the tombstone in front of her was not placed upright.

    She frowned and glanced at the other tombstones. Most of them were crookedly inserted into the soil, and some fell face-on, with the side engraved with words buried in the soil.

    "The ancestral graves here seem to be untended," Yinhua also sensed something was wrong, "It is disrespectful to place the tombstones incorrectly, and it is even more taboo to throw the tombstones in the soil, which often indicates that the children are left unattended, and the descendants will wither. The dead tend to become lonely ghosts."

    Qiaoqiao in her arms struggled to walk by herself, not wanting to bother Zhao Qinghan. Zhao Qinghan put the child down carefully.

    She herself is quite a superstitious person, and when she heard Yinhua's analysis, she couldn't help straightening the fallen tombstone beside her, and digging the soil with her hands without hesitation, so that the fallen tombstone could stand firmly.

    Cheng Mengyun and Yinhua also started to help those fallen tombstones.

    Qiaoqiao took out the freshly picked flowers in the morning from the pocket of her skirt and placed them in front of the tombstones.

    When Cheng Mengyun thought of the high probability of "the massacre in the village", the movements of his hands became more vigorous. Anyway, this is just a matter of little effort, not too much effort.

    There weren't many fallen tombstones, and while she was arranging them, she found a small trace on the wet ground, which seemed to be left by the tracks of that kind of large machinery.

    There are still many such track-like traces, some of which have been blurred by the rain.

    Could it be that the rumbling sound heard by Qiaoqiao was made by those researchers using machinery in the graveyard? Is there any good place to use large machinery in this cemetery?

    Before he could figure out why, Yinhua's hesitant voice sounded beside him:

    "The soil here is very loose. Judging from the time when these tombstones were buried, the soil should not have such a loose density. Of course, it may also be caused by less vegetation and erosion by rain."

    Cheng Mengyun was blessed to the heart, she looked down at those crawler traces and said: "Fuck, those people are not digging graves!"

    The more she thought about it, the more she felt it was possible: "Come and see, there are traces of mechanical use here, most likely an excavator or a crane! Digging a grave will mess up the tombstones and loosen the soil! "

    "Why dig the grave? Could it be that there was something in the coffin of the deceased?" Yinhua also realized that this guess should be correct.

    "Digging graves is too immoral." Zhao Qinghan frowned slightly.

    "Who knows." Cheng Mengyun stood up abruptly, she looked back at her three teammates, and said firmly:

    "Since this is the case, in order to understand why they did this, let's dig their graves too."
