Change

"Mom, I'm quite busy at the company. I might be able to take some time off after I'm done. I'll go back and visit you guys then." Xiang Kun did not reveal to his mother that he had lost his job. He did not want his family to worry. After all, he still had some savings. He would not starve for the time being. He just needed to find a new job as soon as possible.

After hanging up, Xiang Kun wiped his glasses and checked the date on his phone again. It was July 14th, Sunday.

However, he was very sure that the day he left the company to drown his sorrows was July 11th, Thursday!

The chat records on WeChat, the Alipay record of him paying at the food stall, and the taxi call record on Didi app all proved this point.

From the time he called for his car, he arrived home at around 8: 50 pm. As he was too drunk, his head was dizzy and he did not wash up when he reached home. He did not even take off his clothes and shoes before falling asleep on the bed.

And now, it was 10: 47 AM on July 14th, which meant that he had slept for more than two days, almost 60 hours?

It was just three cans of beer. No matter how bad his alcohol tolerance was, it shouldn't be that bad!

The strange thing was that after sleeping for such a long time, other than feeling a little dizzy after waking up, he was neither hungry nor thirsty?

Xiang Kun boiled some water and made a bowl of instant noodles. However, after eating a few mouthfuls, he felt a strong discomfort in his stomach. Then he ran to the bathroom and vomited everything out.

"Or the aftereffects of getting drunk?"

Xiang Kun rubbed his stomach, put on his shoes, and prepared to find something light to eat.

As soon as he stepped out of the door, the dazzling sunlight seemed to make his dizziness worse. He had no choice but to walk along the roadside to avoid the sunlight.

He found a small restaurant next to his residence and ordered some porridge and two small dishes. After sitting down and eating for a while, he felt his stomach cramp again. He ran to the road outside the restaurant and vomited everything he had eaten. He vomited a lot of tears and mucus. The lady boss and the waiter of the restaurant rushed out and stood at the door, looking at him with a dumbfounded expression.

Xiang Kun took the tissue from the waiter and wiped his mouth. He turned around and waved his hand. "It has nothing to do with what you made. I drank too much last night and my stomach is not feeling well."

After paying, although Xiang Kun was not hungry and did not seem to have any other symptoms other than feeling weak and dizzy, he still went to a clinic nearby to see a doctor.

The patient in the clinic was an experienced doctor. It was said that he was a retired surgeon from a tertiary Grade A hospital. His medical skills were excellent, and Xiang Kun had seen him twice before and felt that he was reliable.

"You slept for two days after getting drunk?" The old doctor checked his pulse while asking about his symptoms. Then, he looked at his tongue and asked, "You didn't drink much in the past, right? During this period of time, you often have insufficient sleep and stayed up late. Your body is weak to begin with. I'll prescribe some medicine for you. Rest well and eat something light. Don't drink cigarettes or alcohol. Eat more fruits and vegetables."

"Doctor, I slept for two days when I was drunk, almost sixty hours. Is there a problem with this? Also, my teeth feel a little loose…"

The old doctor wrote down the prescription and handed it to Xiang Kun. "Normally, you won't sleep for so long. Hmm, if your teeth are loose, you will still suffer from inflammation, which will cause your gums to shrink. Remember to clean your mouth and drink more water, or you can visit the dentist. If you are really worried, go to the hospital for a full body checkup."

Although the old doctor felt that there was nothing wrong with him, Xiang Kun, who was standing at the entrance of the clinic, still felt that his body was a little strange. He decided to take some medicine today and take a nap. If he still felt the same strange feeling tomorrow, he would go to the hospital for a full body checkup.

When he came out, it was already past midnight. The fragrance of the dishes from the various shops by the roadside wafted out. Xiang Kun did not have any appetite at all.

This made him feel uneasy. No matter how hungover he was, he should be hungry after not eating for such a long time. Why didn't he have any appetite?

He wanted to buy some bread to make some food so that he would not have nothing to eat when he was hungry. When he passed by the market, he was attracted by a strange smell and walked in unknowingly.

At this moment, there were not many people in the market. Xiang Kun followed the smell and walked in. When he finally found the source of the smell, he was stunned.

It was a middle-aged woman who was swiftly killing a chicken to bleed.

And the smell that attracted him was actually the bloody smell of chicken blood?

Under normal circumstances, Xiang Kun would only feel disgusted and repulsed by the smell. He wanted to get away from it as soon as possible. But now, he felt a strong desire deep within his body.

After some hesitation, Xiang Kun went up to the auntie and asked her if he wanted to buy a chicken. The auntie told him to choose from the side. After choosing, the auntie wanted to kill a chicken for him. However, he stopped her and took the chicken home.

As soon as he reached home and closed the door, Xiang Kun took out his Swiss Army knife and searched online for ways to kill a chicken. Then he carried the chicken to the washroom.

However, because it was his first time killing a chicken, he still let the chicken run all over the place. It took him quite a bit of effort to catch it. He randomly plucked the hair on the chicken's neck and then cut open the blood vessels to let out blood.

Before the chicken blood filled his stainless steel soup basin, Xiang Kun could not help but suck on the wound.

…

When Xiang Kun woke up, he saw that the room was a mess. The bed, the floor, and even his body and mouth were covered in chicken feathers.

The bloodied dead chicken was sprawled at the entrance of the washroom. Blood was everywhere, making it look like a murder scene.

Xiang Kun remembered that he had been guided by an inexplicable impulse to buy a chicken and drink its blood. After drinking the blood, he was extremely tired and fell asleep the moment he touched the bed.

He picked up his phone and took a look. He had slept for more than 24 hours. He slept from 1 p.m. yesterday to 4 p.m. today.

Feeling something in his mouth, Xiang Kun spat it out and realized that he had spat out two teeth.

Then, he reached out and easily pulled out another front tooth, scaring him out of his bed.

She quickly ran to the washroom, switched on the lights, and looked in the mirror. She realized that her teeth were teetering on the verge of falling off. If she used a little more strength, she could pull them out.

However, after pulling out the old tooth, the new tooth's head popped out.

To suddenly change teeth at the age of thirty?!

What made him feel even more incredulous was that his face in the mirror, other than a few strands of chicken feathers and the blood at the corner of his mouth, seemed to be covered with a layer of torn plastic wrap.

Upon closer inspection, he discovered that his skin was peeling off in large patches.

Not only his face, but his arms, stomach and legs were also shedding!
