My Healing Games

Chapter 878 The Trick of Eating Time

The four grudges mentioned by the system all seemed to be related to lifespan, and one of them even shared the same name as the Immortal Life Pharmaceuticals. This made Han Fei even more curious about the relationship between the Immortal Life Pharmaceuticals and these grudges.

Fu Sheng founded Yong Sheng Pharmaceuticals after obtaining the Black Box, and the secret to immortality seems to be hidden in the Black Box.

"Immortality is indeed a good gimmick to attract wealthy people to invest regardless of cost. Fu Sheng must have obtained a lot from the black box, and increasing lifespan is just one of them."

Han Fei opened several layers of black boxes, but he found nothing. This was probably because the contents of the outer layers of the black boxes had already been removed.

"I wonder if, after imprisoning the four hatreds of longevity, natural lifespan, immortality, and eternal life in the abyss of greed, they will merge into a new monster."

The enormous heart named Longevity fell into the Black River, absorbing the despair accumulated in the world, and new blood vessels quickly grew from the severed wound.

The resentful flower blooming on the cliff seemed to have discovered something interesting; its roots and veins intertwined, and it began to grow rapidly.

As petals fall, new flowers begin to bloom. Having received blood from the longevity veins, the Flower of Resentment is rejuvenated with unprecedented vitality.

"Can such a beautiful flower bloom even above despair and death?"

Gao Cheng's greedy personality was born from Gao Xing's constant torment and abuse; it was the result of an extreme distortion of humanity. Yet now, this twisted personality has become Gao Cheng's only means of resisting Gao Xing. From the abyss filled with death and mental pollution, flowers bloomed that no one could have imagined.

“My brain is completely different from that of ordinary people. As the number of personality awakenings increases, my mental world continues to expand and is gradually becoming a new world.”

Before imprisoning Changshou, Han Fei was unaware that his spiritual world was becoming more and more like the unspeakable world of memories constructed in the shrine.

Based on their own personality, they use the abilities of various ghosts and monsters to improve themselves, constantly filling in past memories, and finally forming a world of their own.

"If the mind of a living person and the demonic realm of hatred expand to a certain extent, will they acquire the qualification to become unspeakable?"

Han Fei had entered many shrine memory worlds. In his view, each shrine memory world was like a super-large ghost realm, representing an unspeakable past and harboring unspeakable obsessions.

"If I continue to strengthen myself, is it possible to become unspeakable within this shrine's memory world?"

A thought flashed through Han Fei's mind like lightning: "When I become the unspeakable, I should have succeeded in usurping the throne, right?"

The shattered earth has recovered, and the twisted blood vessels in the underground river have all disappeared. It is retreating towards the Yi Yang Tian Nian nursing home. There are no survivors left in this village that Han Fei investigated.

The long-lived ghost realm has been eradicated. The starlight in the night sky illuminates Han Fei's path ahead. After drinking two bottles of ghost blood, he conceals all his aura and enters the dense forest, quietly approaching the retirement home from the other side.

Han Fei had not forgotten his mission, but the seemingly simple random shrine mission was actually extremely difficult.

The area where the Yiyang Tiannian Nursing Home is located is completely shrouded in a ghost realm. The flow of time is different from that of the outside world. You can see all kinds of buildings in the nursing home, but no matter which way you go, you can't get closer to the nursing home.

Now, comparing the three mysterious buildings recorded by Gao Cheng, the Deep Sea Aquarium is actually the easiest to conquer.

“This can’t go on.” Han Fei retreated to the edge of the ghost realm again and communicated with the longevity in the abyss of greed. Under the “persuasion” of many ghosts, the beating heart began to guide Han Fei.

The blood of longevity seeped into the black mist of greed, turning the mist a dark red.

Strangely enough, after merging with the blood of the long-lived, the special effects of the nursing home's ghost realm had a minimal impact on Han Fei, and he began to adapt to the flow of time within the ghost realm.

After an hour, Han Fei finally approached the Yi Yang Tian Nian Nursing Home.

The nursing home was much larger than he had imagined, with more than a dozen buildings standing together in an extremely bizarre architectural style, as if he had inadvertently entered the nightmare of a critically ill patient.

"Is what I'm seeing real, or an illusion?"

Han Fei tried to dispel the blood-red mist, and the nursing home in his eyes immediately returned to normal. There were no eerie and distorted buildings, nor a terrifying atmosphere, only a peaceful complex of buildings.

But when he looked through the blood mist again, all the buildings in the nursing home would be distorted.

"This place looks bright and healing, but it is actually an extremely distorted place where everything is rapidly becoming alienated. It is simply a nest of nightmares."

Because of the different flow of time, all sorts of monsters that can't be seen anywhere else have appeared in the Yiyang Tiannian Nursing Home. The great disaster outside has only happened for a dozen years, but here it may have affected for hundreds of years, and anything is possible that it has mutated into something else.

By covering his left eye with a blood mist, Han Fei saw different scenes with each eye: one side was normal, and the other was highly distorted.

"The shrine mission asked me to go to the security room to rescue A-Nian. Do you know where the security room is?" Han Fei tried to communicate with Chang Shou, but this hatred dared not say a word. It seemed that as long as he revealed the secret related to the nursing home, he would be killed by some unknown force.

"There are at least three people harboring resentment in the nursing home. This one, who hasn't even ignited a black flame yet, is probably the easiest to bully."

Han Fei did not insist. He followed the path to the side gate of the nursing home and quietly slipped inside.

The nursing home in the right eye is clean, tidy, stylish and grand. It is simply a world-class health resort. Every detail is designed with the elderly in mind. For example, there are emergency pull ropes everywhere, handrails in all directions, floor heating, rounded corners on all the seats, anti-slip treatment on the floors, and soft anti-glare lights installed on the walls.

His right eye saw only humanistic care, perfectly embodying respect and care for the elderly, but Han Fei's left eye, shrouded in blood mist, saw a completely different scene.

The elderly person's bedroom door is equipped with double peepholes, designed to make it easier for caregivers to check on the elderly person's condition. However, a constantly blinking black eyeball is stuck in one of those peepholes.

To prevent elderly people from falling, the floor inside the nursing home is level, and although it looks like a flat area, blood is flowing out along the corridor.

Nursing homes usually have wide entrances to make it easier for elderly people in wheelchairs to enter and exit. But the entrance here was ridiculously wide, and there were scales and a lot of scratches on the door frame. The people going in and out of the room were not elderly people in wheelchairs, but something else entirely.

Such anomalies were everywhere, but what chilled Han Fei the most was that he saw the introduction and portrait of the doctor who worked at the nursing home.

This nursing home, founded by Yong Sheng Pharmaceutical, has expert doctors from authoritative hospitals, is fully equipped with various nursing facilities, and has established close ties with top-tier hospitals to provide medication refill services.

At first glance, it all seems to be for the good of the elderly, but in reality, those doctors on duty are all ghosts!
The medicine they give to the elderly is made from cursed substances such as longevity pupae and water from the well of immortality. This so-called secret medicine is more terrifying than deadly poison and will turn the elderly in the facility into real monsters.

"This is no nursing home, it's hell on earth. The elderly have become their toys and experimental subjects, and death has become something they can't wait for."

The old man's wails still echo in many of the rooms, but unfortunately, the entire place has been repainted, and all the truths have been buried by time.

With the help of longevity, Han Fei avoided potential dangers. He walked for a long time in the corridor before finally seeing a fire evacuation map.

"Calligraphy and painting room, music room, faith room, chess and card room, senior university, nursing room, hospice care room..."

Han Fei stared at it for a long time and finally found the security room in a very inconspicuous corner.

The security work at Yi Yang Tian Nian Nursing Home employs a professional team. All security guards have undergone rigorous training, are capable of handling most dangers, and possess basic nursing knowledge. They can also serve as caregivers when manpower is insufficient.

Having confirmed the location, Han Fei's unease did not lessen in the slightest. The Ghost Tower was fraught with danger, and one wrong step could lead to death. He was extremely cautious with every step he took.

"The clock on the wall has stopped ticking, but I feel like my body is aging faster than ever. Even hiding in the blood mist is no use. This ghostly realm seems to be devouring my life."

Following the map, Han Fei hadn't gone far when the screams of the elderly in the wards on both sides suddenly intensified, as if a tragedy was unfolding right there in the wards.

Approaching the door, Han Fei peered through the peephole. The killing was over, and the entire ward was covered in blood.

To his surprise, the bloodstains solidified and peeled off at an extremely fast speed, and the wall returned to normal in just a few minutes.

Han Fei tried to push open the door. He could vaguely see traces of the killing in the ward, but the body and the murderer were gone, as if they had disappeared into time.

"Oh!"

A violent impact suddenly came from behind Han Fei. It felt like he had been grazed by a car. His left shoulder was deformed, and his body fell forward to the ground.

What attacked me?

Han Fei found nothing unusual; he didn't even see a ghost.

As he looked around, he suddenly felt a chill in his lower abdomen. A wound had appeared on his stomach out of nowhere, as if he had been stabbed by a sharp knife. Blood flowed out and soaked his clothes.

Who is attacking me?

Clutching his wound, Han Fei dared not linger. He rushed to the other side of the corridor as fast as he could.

After running for more than ten meters, Han Fei glanced back and saw a caregiver with his head covered by a black cloth, holding a sharp knife, standing where he had been standing.

The caregiver was behaving very strangely. He rammed into an empty space, then raised the knife in his hand and stabbed it into the air!

Upon seeing this, Han Fei's pupils suddenly contracted.

The caregiver stabbed him where he had just been standing, and upon closer inspection, it was right in his lower abdomen!

"He can attack me from the future, a dozen seconds from now, in the present?" Han Fei had never seen such a bizarre ability before; it was extremely difficult to even defend against.

The caregiver, whose head was covered by a black cloth, slowly turned around. He stood a dozen meters away from Han Fei and raised the sharp knife in his hand again. Han Fei realized the danger and dodged decisively. The next moment, the blood mist was broken, and a wound appeared on his cheek.

"Unleashing the Ghost Realm will awaken the hatred within the Yiyangtiannian Nursing Home, making the situation even more passive." Han Fei turned and ran. He didn't want to start a full-scale war with the nursing home yet, mainly because the difference in strength was too great, and he couldn't win. "This caregiver can break through the protection of the blood mist; she's not some simple ghost. Let's avoid her for now."

There was a time difference between Han Fei and the caregiver wearing the black hood; they seemed to live in different time flows. What made it difficult for Han Fei was that the other party could use the entire time difference to attack him, making it hard for him to fight back.

“The caregiver’s abilities are likely limited; they may need to be able to see the target or maintain a certain distance from it.”

Fearing that his true thoughts would be guessed, Han Fei changed rooms several times to hide, and only went straight to the security room after confirming that the caregiver was not chasing after him.
