《Xianshi Inn (A contemporary Xianxia novel)》Chapter 86

Jason immediately held up his wooden pen to the nurse ready to fight, but the nurse just stood there staring at them with her eye on the side of the face that was not burnt.
“We need to leave. Can you understand me?” Jason narrowed his eyes and lowered his wooden pen: “Can you step aside?”
When Jason tried to go around the nurse, the nurse just moved and blocked him again, without any sign of aggression.
“Holy shit, Jason, I’m never gonna doubt you ever again.” Tim looked at Jason, then looked at the nurse: “Just let me know what to do.”
“Yeah, same with me.” Adam nodded like he had never nodded before.
“My camera is not working... ” Branston kept pressing the “reset” button on his streaming camera, but the camera just wouldn’t start.
“I think I know that you are not hostile. But please step aside, I need to get them outta here.” Jason said to the nurse. But after a while, the nurse still moved to block their way when they tried to go around her.
“I think she’s trying to protect us.” Adam said: “I think… I think she’s the nurse that poisoned the three gangsters.”
“Yeah, no shit!” Branston was still trying to get the camera to start: “How can I get this thing to start...”
“Please, we need to leave this place. Let us go if you don’t mean any harm.” Jason said to the nurse. But the nurse still did not step aside, and still moved to block their way whenever they tried.
Finally, Jason had to be forceful, after a bow of apology, he had his Xuanli concentrated on his hands and arms and tried to push the nurse to the side.

The moment Jason’s hands got into contact with the nurse’s shoulder, Jason felt a sudden fall as if the floor he was standing on just dropped. And what came with the sudden feeling of fall, was that the surrounding area got slightly lit up by a faint white light, and the room was no longer the state it was in while Jason and his friends entered - the walls had their original padding cushions, the other 3 people in his group were not in the room and there were three beds with one end significantly higher than the other. And on those three beds, were three frantic male patients chained up and tied to them. The patients were shaking, struggling and mumbling unintelligible speech, but they were not able to loosen the chains and ropes for even one bit.
A nurse sneaked into the room holding a small clay jar, and she quickly opened it and poured some o f the powder from the gray jar into a few paper funnels made from sheets of paper from a clipboard. She then lifted the mouth pieces from the patients and poured the powder into each of the patients’ mouths.
The patients almost yelled out as their bodies shook harder, but the nurse swiftly put their mouth pieces back to muffle their voices. Then, the nurse just drew a cross across her chest and stood beside the beds, crying with hands over her mouth.
After a few seconds, all three patients tied to the bed shook harder and started making vomiting sounds, thick black liquid started flowing out from their mouths, noses and eyes. The scene made the nurse cry harder and drew a few more crosses across her chest, as the thick black liquid dripped down the floor, she flinched and backed away from the beds. The liquid, however, formed three continuous streams and flowed to corners of the room, as if the liquid has some kind of mind of its own.

Another “fall” came over Jason, and he was back to the room with Tim, Adam and Branston, and of course the nurse in front of him. But now the nurse was in a horrible situation: three sharp bone spikes penetrated her from the back and pierced her chest. Thick black liquid gushed out of her wounds, as the bone spikes coming from the ceiling outside the door retracted and tried to pull the nurse away.
Jason rushed outside the room and saw the thing that attacked the nurse with the bone spikes - a moving and shapeless shadow on the ceiling. Jason barely hesitated for one moment, then he jumped up and swung his wooden pen in the air horizontally.
A crescent-shaped silver energy blade shot from in front of him. And before the shadow on the ceiling could move any further, all three bone spikes were cleanly cut off by it. A loud screech came from the shadow filled the whole hallway.
Another tall shadowy figure rushed towards Jason’s back with a bone saw in hand, before Tim and Adam could warn him, the figure already slashed Jason on the waist.
With a loud cloth tearing sound, the bone saw ripped through his clothes with full force, but just barely leaving a light scratch on Jason’s skin. Jason turned around and backed off, then delivered a front kick onto the figure’s chest. As the figure was sent flying by the force of the kick, Jason thrusted his wooden pen forward, a silver shadow of the head of a spear emerged from the tip of his wooden pen and impaled the figure on its chest.
The figure exploded midair, droplets of black liquid splashed all over the hall, Jason was luckily some distance away and he barely caught any on his pants.
Jason turned around again to find the wounded nurse, and saw that the moving shadow on the ceiling already escaped. And the nurse was lying on the ground, still “bleeding”.
“Hey hey hey. Are you okay?” Jason ran to the nurse’s side and tried to hold her up, but she stood up and backed away from him, with a single stream of red tears pouring down her face from her eye on the side of her unburnt face.
The next moment, the nurse turned into a shadow and disappeared into room 3-5-13.
