Speaking of which, during the ward rounds this morning, He Shiqin used his spiritual power to cover the two candles in the ward with a thick layer of soil. When the shopkeeper was dragged to find Shen Xia, he controlled the thick layer of soil and directly extinguished a candle. As expected, he received another violation prompt from the system.

Chunlan used the few herbs in the medical center to prepare a powder that could stimulate the monster, and sprinkled it evenly in the ward during the morning meal. Well, I received another violation notice.

Therefore, as soon as the candle went out, the monster became excited, and the patients on the other side were Kakazao. Fortunately, Pei Xingzhi had quick eyes and quick hands, and pulled Yu Jiuzhang to the ward before the monster could bite.

Moreover, Yu Jiuzhang kept trying to deceive him, saying that now is an emergency period and we should seek help from the shopkeeper. But now the shopkeeper has gone to trouble Aunt Liu, and Dr. Liu is not a good person either. In Yuan Ji, he had no ability to protect himself, so the safest place now was the shopkeeper's wing. Before the chaos breaks out, we need to go to the shopkeeper's wing. Maybe there are any clues and we can escape by then.

As for why Yu Jiuzhang believed Pei Xingzhi? Probably because Pei Xingzhi had a good reputation among the patients, and because Yu Jiuzhang was a little passive after Tao Yongfeng was killed - given his acting style, other assessment disciples were not willing to get closer.

The appearance of Pei Xingzhi (Ziping) at this time was undoubtedly the straw that Yu Jiuzhang grasped in this strange situation, and he had previously firmly believed that Ziping was a good person, so he was naturally willing to trust him temporarily.

Moreover, Pei Xingzhi's analysis was very clear and logical. Although Yu Jiuzhang could not understand a word, it did not prevent him from feeling that Pei Xingzhi was professional.

So Yu Jiuzhang followed Pei Xingzhi and sneaked out when Yuan Ji opened the ward door and shouted for the shopkeeper at the top of his lungs.

Pei Xingzhi took out another fire break that looked a little old and was very short: "There was a time when the shopkeeper threw it on the ground after using it, so I picked it up. I didn't expect it to come in handy."

With just such a sentence, Yu Jiuzhang became more convinced that the Ziping in front of him was a good person. Not only a good person, but also an old man with rich life experience in the medical clinic. It seemed that his vision was correct.

The two hid behind the pillars in the backyard. After confirming that the shopkeeper, Aunt Liu and everyone else had entered the ward, they immediately quickened their pace and sneaked into the shopkeeper's wing.

Pei Xingzhi felt cold as soon as he entered the shopkeeper's wing. It was the kind of physiological cold. The temperature in the shopkeeper's room was so low that Pei Xingzhi felt as if he had entered an ice cellar.

There was no candlelight in the wing. There were stones of different sizes similar to luminous pearls placed in various corners of the wing. They uniformly emitted a faint white light, making the place even colder.

"Here...why is there a coffin here?" Yu Jiuzhang hid behind Pei Xingzhi and asked, pointing to the coffin in the center of the room.

The layout of the whole room is very simple, with a coffin in the middle, a bed on the right, and a desk on the left. It's hard not to notice the coffin.

Pei Xingzhi and Yu Jiuzhang are both highly cultivated. It stands to reason that they can see clearly even if there is no light in the room, but whether they are in the ward or the shopkeeper's room, they feel as if there is a layer of gauze covering their eyes. It's so general that I can only have a vague idea of ​​it.

Pei Xingzhi looked at the coffin. The entire coffin seemed to be in an extremely moist state. Some liquid was constantly gushing out through the gaps in the coffin, and then seeping into the ground.

There was no unpleasant smell of blood in the room, but a unique fragrance that Pei Xingzhi had never smelled before, like snow slowly melting under the sunlight in winter.

What Pei Xingzhi didn't know was that in this short moment, Yu Jiuzhang had already made a bold and crazy decision.

Yu Jiuzhang took out his disciple's sword and stepped forward step by step, holding the sword high and about to stab it into the coffin.

"What are you doing?!" Pei Xingzhi didn't understand and was shocked. He could only hold Yu Jiuzhang's hand tightly.

"Let go, I've found a way to escape. The source of everything is this damn coffin. Did you see the liquid pouring out of it? It's red!"

Whether it should be said or not, Yu Jiuzhang's guess was indeed reasonable. Pei Xingzhi was thinking about the feasibility, but he couldn't let Yu Jiuzhang end this situation so quickly. He had to find an excuse to deal with it.

Just when Pei Xingzhi was distracted, Yu Jiuzhang was about to thrust his disciple's sword in (the two of them had similar cultivation levels and were both in the Qi training period).

“Da da da da”

At this time, a series of hurried footsteps sounded from far to near outside the door. Pei Xingzhi didn't care so much and warned Yu Jiuzhang in a low voice: "Someone is coming. You don't know the consequences of this sword strike. You don't want to be exposed." Just hide it obediently, you want to die but I don’t want to die yet.”

After that, he didn't care about what Yu Jiuzhang wanted to do and got directly under the bed.

Yu Jiuzhang was stunned by what Pei Xingzhi did. Before he could react, he heard the sound of the door being pushed open. He could only duck and jump to the beam.

The person who came in was none other than the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper carefully closed the door, then walked to the coffin and stood in front of it, still muttering, "What happened today?" "I usually don't give you meat, so why are you so irritable today?" "Stop messing around." It’s cannibalism, and there are fewer and fewer patients now. It’s estimated that there won’t be enough food for a month.” and so on.

Yu Jiuzhang felt that he should have gone down with a sword just now. The shopkeeper of Bantian was the one who helped the evildoer. The pass code has been in his room for three days. Do you know how he spent these three days? I have never been so frustrated in my life.

Then, he heard the shopkeeper say: "Just lie here and stop crying. No one will hurt you. Do you still remember the last time a disciple broke in and accidentally touched you and turned you into a blood mist?" Is it okay? I need to get the candle now, don't cry first, or I will turn into blood mist."

So scary? Yu Jiuzhang was glad that he had not touched the coffin just now, otherwise he would have died immediately. It’s already here, who’s not rushing to clear the level? I won't be so reckless anymore.

After the shopkeeper finished speaking, the coffin no longer leaked any liquid, and the lid of the coffin opened automatically. The shopkeeper stepped on the small bench next to him, reached into the coffin for a long time, and finally took out two candles, then took out a bamboo stick from the corner of the room, and walked out without stopping.

As soon as the shopkeeper left, Pei Xingzhi and Yu Jiuzhang appeared in front of the coffin. The coffin had stopped leaking liquid, but upon seeing the two of them, it started leaking again.

"Is this coffin alive?" Yu Jiuzhang has been alive for a long time.

"I just found out," Pei Xingzhi took a step back, "No wonder my former patient said he went to the shopkeeper and never came back. It turns out..."

Yu Jiuzhang was silent. If the coffin was really as lethal as the shopkeeper said, then he would be dead no matter what. But...he glanced at Pei Xingzhi, and there was a ready-made scapegoat here.
