"You should have said it just now. I only sucked the blood of one person. The blood of the remaining six people was wasted." Tang Xue said casually to Fu Sheng.
Fu Sheng said helplessly: "Sister, it is wrong to suck human blood. I will not suck the blood of a living person. I suggest you learn from Brother Zheng! Brother Zheng has already told me that he will not suck the blood of a living person."
Tang Xue looked at Fu Sheng in the rearview mirror with a strange look on her face: "What have you been eating all these years?"
"I eat a lot of things, like chicken blood, duck blood, and pig blood, which are the most delicious, but I can't eat them every day. If the bloody smell is too strong, the neighbors will be suspicious."
Fu Sheng thought about the recent days and smiled again, saying, "But you don't have to worry too much recently. Sister Xiu often brings a few bags of blood from the blood bank after going to work at the hospital. It's very convenient to suck it directly into your mouth."
Tang Xue was speechless, and after thinking for a while, she said, "I have been drinking human blood for more than fifty years, but after tasting animal blood, I can't drink it at all. It's amazing that you can do it."
Fu Sheng was startled by Tang Xue's words. He couldn't help shrinking his neck and asked cautiously: "So how many people have you killed so far?"
Tang Xue shook her head and said naturally, "I haven't done that, but I can guarantee that the people I killed were those who deserved to die. If I killed innocent people, not only would I not be able to do it, but even if I could, the lady would make me pay."
"Hehe..." Fusheng laughed dryly twice, and looked timidly at Tang Xue's eyes in the rearview mirror that were looking at the front of the car.
It took nearly an hour to reach Ren Ai Hospital. After Tang Xue parked the car, Zheng Wenjie pushed Fu Sheng and said, "Lead the way. Don't tell me you can't find Sister Xiu."
Fusheng grabbed Zheng Wenjie's hand and walked away, saying excitedly: "Sister Xiu was on duty yesterday. She must be in the duty room now. I have been here two or three times."
Tang Xue followed behind Zheng Wenjie, and suddenly her eyes moved. She stood still and saw a familiar face not far away. She watched Kuang Tianyou walk straight into the inpatient building, then she retracted her gaze and followed Zheng Wenjie.
After greeting several nurses, Fusheng pushed open the door of the duty room with words of praise like “Dr. He’s child is so well-behaved”.
"Sister Xiu! Look who's here!"
Ah Xiu was lying on the table writing medical records. She heard Fu Sheng's voice just now. She didn't react at this moment and asked casually, "Fu Sheng, why don't you go to school? Don't worry about your big brother Kuang, he's not injured."
"Sister Xiu, long time no see." Zheng Wenjie spoke with a smile, which made Ah Xiu raise her head.
Zheng Wenjie spread his hands towards Ah Xiu and said, "What's wrong? You've been staring at me. Have I changed in any way? Why can't you recognize me?"
Fusheng ran to Ah Xiu, grabbed Ah Xiu's arm on the table and said, "I just happened to meet Brother Zheng on the road today. Sister Xiu, are you unhappy?"
Ah Xiu came back to her senses, smiled and touched Fu Sheng's head, looked at Zheng Wenjie and said, "I learned from Brother Kuang yesterday that you were in Hong Kong Island. It's been a long time since we last met."
Zheng Wenjie didn't care that Ah Xiu was acting so calm. He just pulled out a chair and sat down and said, "I came here today specifically to see Fu Sheng and Sister Xiu. I wanted to catch up with you guys."
"But looking at Sister Xiu's expression, it seems that she is not very welcoming to me." Zheng Wenjie sighed, crossed his legs casually, put his hands on his legs, leaned back in the chair and just looked at Ah Xiu.
Ah Xiu smiled gently and said softly, "I am also very happy to see you again, but Brother Kuang doesn't want us to be too deeply involved with you. I also think this is right. Being too deeply involved is not good for any of us."
Fu Sheng looked at Ah Xiu in confusion and asked, "Sister Xiu, why is this? Brother Zheng and we haven't seen each other for a long time. What's more, we are all zombies, so we should stick together for warmth."
Tang Xue stood behind Zheng Wenjie, looking at Ah Xiu, and heard Ah Xiu explaining to Fu Sheng and also telling Zheng Wenjie.
"Although we are both zombies, we deal with things differently. If we get too deeply involved, we will just dislike each other. It's already pretty good to meet each other occasionally like now."
Fu Sheng looked at Ah Xiu's serious expression, then turned to look at Zheng Wenjie who was smiling silently, gritted his teeth and said helplessly: "Brother Zheng has promised me that he will not suck the blood of living people in the future. There are only four of us still alive in Hongxi Village. Why can't we get along well?"
"Fusheng." Zheng Wenjie called out and then looked at Ah Xiu and said, "I can understand Sister Xiu's thoughts. After all, I am not alone. I also have a family to support. Just like Sister Xiu said, it is indeed not bad for us to be ordinary friends who are familiar with each other."
Ah Xiu patted Fu Sheng's shoulder, and seeing that he still had a disapproving expression on his face, she consoled him and said, "We are also in Hong Kong Island, and our relationship is just like that of the neighbors. What's wrong with that? Be good, Fu Sheng, and listen to me."
"Okay, I understand." Fu Sheng said reluctantly with his head down.
Ah Xiu smiled and hugged Fu Sheng, looking at Zheng Wenjie and said with a smile: "Are you just here to see us? If there is nothing else, I have to be busy. I have a lot of patients to take care of these days."
Zheng Wenjie took a deep look at Ah Xiu, then shook his head, stood up and said, "Fu Sheng, I'll have you deliver the computer you asked for tomorrow. If you need any help, remember to find me."
"I understand, Brother Zheng." Fusheng looked at Zheng Wenjie reluctantly and said.
Zheng Wenjie nodded and took Tang Xue out of the duty room. In the hospital corridor, Zheng Wenjie frowned unconsciously, then relaxed.
"Are you unhappy? But what she said does make some sense." Tang Xue said softly.
Zheng Wenjie walked to the end of the hospital corridor, looked through the window at the people coming and going downstairs and said, "I don't know what it feels like, but you are right, they drink animal blood, and we suck the blood of living people."
"That's what we call people with different ideals. I just didn't expect that Sister Xiu, who was so gentle and pretty before, would say these words to me so decisively."
Tang Xue met Ah Xiu and Fu Sheng for the first time today, and she didn't feel anything. She looked at Zheng Wenjie's melancholy expression and said softly: "Now that it has come to this, let's finish the work at the construction site."
"Let's go." Zheng Wenjie nodded and said, but just as he was about to leave, Tang Xue grabbed his hand.
Zheng Wenjie raised his eyebrows to ask Tang Xue what was wrong. Tang Xue pointed to the inpatient building across the window and said, "I just saw the zombie named Kuang Tianyou go in. Then Ma Xiaoling and the lame guy from yesterday should be in there too."
"You want them to go to the construction site and handle this?"
Tang Xue nodded and said directly: "Ma Xiaoling still owes me one million. Now her arm is broken. I am too lazy to ask her for the money."
"I understand." Zheng Wenjie nodded and turned to look at Tang Xue with an inexplicable look and said thoughtfully: "No, you don't want the one million? I remember this is your only hobby."
Tang Xue raised her head and smiled at Zheng Wenjie before saying, "Shen Cihang, that bastard, would definitely charge a high price if he were asked to come out and investigate the Feng Shui master. The money you and the young lady paid is also my money, I can't let him get away with it!"
Zheng Wenjie wanted to laugh every time he saw Tang Xue's greedy look. He smiled and sensed the ward where Kuang Tianyou and the others were, waved at Tang Xue and said, "Let's go, I'll save you money." Tang Xue pouted her lips and followed Zheng Wenjie down the stairs, saying as she walked, "Saving money for me means saving money for you and the young lady, and compared to Shen Cihang who is only in his thirties, that lame old man should have more experience."
Kuang Tianyou bought lunch and returned to the ward. He sat between the two beds and helped the two people who were inconvenienced to open their lunch boxes and prepare spoons before asking He Youqiu, "Uncle Qiu, why couldn't I beat Gong Ruomei last night?"
"Gong Ruomei should have been bitten to death by Zheng Wenjie, and Zheng Wenjie and I were both bitten to death by Jiang Chen. I should be stronger than Gong Ruomei."
Ma Xiaoling took a sip of the soup and said directly, "What's so strange about this? They drink human blood every day and are full of energy. And you? You drink animal blood, dead blood, so of course you will be malnourished."
Kuang Tianyou felt that Ma Xiaoling was in a better mood since she knew Master Miaoshan, so he smiled and said indifferently: "I didn't expect that I would be malnourished even if I became a zombie."
"This can only be said to be one reason, but Tianyou, you were bitten to death by Jiang Chen. Gong Ruomei's potential cannot compare to yours. As long as you can give full play to your potential, you can compete with Zheng Wenjie." He Youqiu said seriously.
Tang Xue and Zheng Wenjie heard Uncle Qiu's words as soon as they reached the door of the ward. Tang Xue pushed the door open and said cheerfully, "If you want to tap into your own potential, you must suck human blood."
"What are you doing here!" Ma Xiaoling opened her eyes wide and asked loudly at Tang Xue and Zheng Wenjie who walked into the ward.
Zheng Wenjie closed the door of the ward casually and looked around the double room. The only accompanying chair was still occupied by Kuang Tianyou, so he could only stand and look at the unfriendly expressions of the three people.
"I came to you to pay you back." Tang Xue took a look at the food Ma Xiaoling was eating: "Wow, the food is really delicious."
"One million... I'll give it to you tomorrow. Now you all get out of here!" Ma Xiaoling felt so angry when she saw Tang Xue's happy expression.
Tang Xue waved her hands at Ma Xiaoling: "Don't worry, after all, your hand is broken now. How about this! As long as you help me find out the real murderer, I will give you this million as an order."
"Murder case?" Kuang Tianyou recalled doubtfully, glanced at Tang Xue, then focused his gaze on Zheng Wenjie's face and asked, "Is this the reason why you came here?"
Zheng Wenjie looked at Kuang Tianyou calmly and said, "I originally wanted to meet Sister Xiu, but Sister Xiu didn't want to get involved with me. Her words implied that we are not on the same page."
Kuang Tianyou stood up and said calmly to Zheng Wenjie, "We are not on the same path. Although we have had a little insignificant friendship, since we are not on the same path, we should each have our own path."
Zheng Wenjie nodded and smiled at He Youqiu and Ma Xiaoling who were staring at him, saying, "I'm not here to cause trouble for you. Just like Xiaoxue said, I want you to help me."
"You should go to the police for the murder case. Besides, you vicious zombies are not afraid of killing people." Ma Xiaoling said with a cold face.
Tang Xue stood in front of Ma Xiaoling's bed with her arms folded across her chest, and patted Ma Xiaoling's arm, which was wrapped tightly in a thick, pillar-like plaster.
"Do not touch me!"
Tang Xue looked at Ma Xiaoling who was trying to struggle but was covered in dirt by the plaster, and said with a smile: "I am a zombie but I am also afraid. It is very scary that seven people were buried alive, and we still can't find the murderer."
"Are you still afraid of dead people? I think it wouldn't matter to you even if there were seven hundred, let alone seven." Ma Xiaoling said as she glanced at Zheng Wenjie. The human blood stored in the blood talisman gave her a great shock.
Tang Xue exclaimed, "Aren't you a Heavenly Master? You're also the descendant of the Dragon Clan that can exorcise demons. Seven people were buried alive, and cement was poured into their mouths and noses, suffocating them to death. And you don't care about that?"
"I am a Taoist priest, not a policeman. I will give you the remaining one million tomorrow. Now please leave." Ma Xiaoling said gritting her teeth.
"This is not an ordinary murder case." Zheng Wenjie interrupted and told the three people the general situation. Finally, he continued: "Xiaoxue believes that although she was seriously injured by you, she recovered quickly as a zombie."
Zheng Wenjie glanced at Uncle Qiu who had remained silent and continued, "But your hands are broken. Although they can be restored with current medical technology, there will still be some impact."
"Xiaoxue doesn't want to be hostile to you, so she uses this matter to offset the one million you owe her. After this matter is over, we will both go our separate ways." Zheng Wenjie looked at Ma Xiaoling and said seriously.
Ma Xiaoling looked at Zheng Wenjie and fell silent. Finally, she said in a trembling voice, "I can help you solve this matter, but you have to return my aunt to me."
Kuang Tianyou glanced at Ma Xiaoling, sat back in the accompanying chair and closed his eyes without saying a word. No matter what, he didn't want to get involved in matters related to Zheng Wenjie anymore.
Zheng Wenjie slowly shook his head and said softly: "Madonna has been taken to the underworld, and she should be preparing for reincarnation now."
"I didn't do anything, nor did I embarrass your great aunt. I just followed the normal procedures."
Zheng Wenjie looked at He Youqiu and said, "I think with the reputation of your Nanmao and Beima for dozens of generations, there won't be any unexpected situations when your great-aunt is reincarnated."
"What you said is true? You really didn't interfere?" He Youqiu's eyes lit up. What he was most worried about was that Madonna would be taken to the underworld by the soul catcher and thrown directly into hell.
"We don't have any deep hatred that cannot be resolved, not to mention that Madonna once killed Japanese invaders for me." Zheng Wenjie said calmly.
"Have you made up your mind?" Tang Xue waited until Zheng Wenjie finished speaking before urging Ma Xiaoling.
Ma Xiaoling looked at Zheng Wenjie and said through gritted teeth: "If you lie to me and something happens to my great aunt, I will never let it go."
"Okay, Xiaoling!" He Youqiu frowned and stopped Ma Xiaoling, then looked at Zheng Wenjie and said, "We will help you find out the truth about this matter, but as you said, after this matter is over, we will each go our separate ways."
Zheng Wenjie nodded in understanding and said, "I've already told you the address. I suspect there's something wrong with that Feng Shui master, but I don't know what he looks like. The name he gave me is probably fake, too. He said his name is Zhao Wenru."
"Zhao Wenru?" He Youqiu was stunned, and Kuang Tianyou also opened his eyes. If he remembered correctly, the name Zhao Wenru was the same as the other ferryman in Hong Kong Island that Uncle Qiu mentioned yesterday.
"From your reaction, do you know this Feng Shui master named Zhao Wenru?" Tang Xue laughed twice and then said, "I knew it. You are older than Shen Cihang, so you must know more than him. Who is this Zhao Wenru?"
Ma Xiaoling had already made a decision by then. She looked up at Zheng Wenjie and spoke neatly.
"Ferryman."
"Besides you, there is another soul ferryman in Hong Kong. His name is Zhao Wenru." (End of this chapter)
