Rebirth of Good, Virtuous and Evil
Chapter 109 Raw Food Report
The female ghost did not directly tell him her life experience as Da Hua wished, but instead cast a venomous look at Huang Yufen.
Huang Yufen, who was asking the nurse about her eldest brother's condition last night, suddenly trembled. "It's really cool in this room."
The nurse closed the notebook: "Yes. After all, it's a north-facing room, and it's more comfortable to live in in summer. Although the beds are relatively tight, we have to make room for Boss Huang, right?"
Huang Yufen smiled lightly. "That's a lot of trouble for you. My elder brother doesn't have any children either. After his sister-in-law passed away, he started to be in poor health. The two of us are also busy, and our parents are getting older. I can only rely on your hospital at night."
The nurse is obviously familiar with Huang Yufen.There was a smile on his face all the time: "This is what we should do." Then he sighed: "But Boss Huang's health is really bad. Although he can't find out what's wrong, he can't eat normally. He just relies on nutrition. Needles are not a problem. I think if it really doesn’t work, I’d better send it to the city or the province to have a look.” I don’t know what happened to the family.It wasn't long before my daughter-in-law died like this.My husband has this strange problem again.She has been a nurse here for so many years, and this is the first time she has encountered such a wicked thing.
Huang Yufen shivered when she thought of Chen Ming's appearance before his death.Seeing the nurse looking at herself strangely, she smiled awkwardly. "Well. Let's go back and study it with our family. I'm sorry to bother you."
Huang Dalong hadn't really eaten for many days, and he could still drink some porridge at first.Later, I gradually couldn't even drink milk.The day before yesterday, the situation was so bad that the Huang family sent him to the hospital again, and now he has a stomach tube.Every two hours, a nurse comes to give some liquid food, plus glucose and nutrients, but even so, she loses weight at a rate visible to the naked eye every day.To this day, I don't even have the energy to speak.
Huang Yufen sat by the hospital bed and looked up at the infusion bottle: "Brother, otherwise we'll transfer to another hospital."
Huang Dalong didn't have the strength to speak at first, let alone a stomach tube.However, he blinked and shook his head slightly. Although the movement was small, Huang Yufen could still see clearly. "Oh." Huang Yufen sighed.Take out the milk egg yolk and draw a tube with a syringe, and then start to beat it into the gastric tube. "But it's not a problem for you. The doctor said that your swallowing ability and stomach and intestines are fine, so why can't you eat. Are you..." Thinking of Chen Ming's appearance again, Huang Yufen stopped talking, her eyes Full of sadness and sadness.She thought that her eldest brother already hated her sister-in-law, and she had quarreled with her elder brother because of this.But now she is wondering, is it because the eldest brother loves Dasou too much, that's why he is like this?
Dahua has been watching the actions of the brothers and sisters in the ward.Especially Huang Yufen, Dahua could see the sadness in Huang Yufen's eyes.Thinking that this person would be the aunt's sister-in-law in the future, he observed more.It looks ok.
'Who the hell are you?Why are you pinching his neck?Don't you say that I went to bring impermanence! 'Dahua was a little impatient.
The female ghost made a 'whoosh' sound, fixed her eyes on the cat floating in the air, felt a sense of oppression, and finally chose to answer the question: "I am Huang Dalong's wife.I was starved to death by them! '
Dahua flicked her cat's tail: "This is the era of the rule of law, okay?"How did he starve you to death? 'Could it be that they are locked up and not given food?
The female ghost laughed a few times, the voice was so ugly that Dahua wanted to shudder. 'That's it.They said that I was sick and couldn't eat anything, and then I was hospitalized, put in a gastric tube, and received fluids. I starved to death for one month and six days.Ha ha ha ha ha. '
Dahua shivered a bit: "Why don't you resist?"Didn't the hospital have a nurse and other patients? '
The female ghost opened her mouth and moved a few times before she said: 'I am dumb.Isn't it fun to be a ghost to talk!If I had known that being a ghost could talk, I should have been a ghost from the very beginning! '
This really surprised Dahua. 'Then why are they starving you? '
'Because I don't deserve to be born!After ten years of marriage, his parents asked his son to go outside to find another woman to have a child if he wanted a grandson!I'm in someone's way, damn it!They all think I deserve to die! '
The female ghost was very emotional.The two bones-like hands pinched even tighter.Huang Dalong felt the pain of suffocation, which frightened Huang Yufen. "Brother! How are you, brother! Nurse! Doctor! Come here!!"
Dahua hurriedly stopped her: "You should relax first!"You don't want him to die in just a few days, do you?You have been hungry for more than a month, so fast and cheap for him.Just relax! '
The female ghost was very persuasive, and immediately relaxed a little. 'Little cat, I won't hurt others, don't hinder me from revenge. '
Dahua is a bit difficult to deal with.Although the female ghost only spoke a few words, she didn't explain the ins and outs in detail.But it's pretty miserable.Dahua has always had no sympathy for strange human beings, and also adheres to the creed of karma retribution in the cycle of heaven, so you and he don't think there is anything wrong with the female ghost's actions.But after the previous few things, he still knew what to deal with first.That is, he has to find out how much longevity Huang Yufen's brother, Huang Dalong, still has.
There are countless ghosts in the underworld, just like the police stations in every city.There are different ghosts in different regions.In fact, black and white impermanence are not just two ghosts, but two kinds of ghosts with different functions.Although Jin Chang is impermanent, he was only working for the underworld in Lingjing City.He has no control over the towns under Heyang City.But this does not prevent him from contacting the local impermanent ghosts in his own capacity.In addition, he is already a cultivator in the middle stage of consecration, no matter his ability or identity, he is not just a little kid in the past.
That night, Jin Chang found out about Huang Dalong's birthday from the local impermanent ghost.This time there is no unfinished life, Huang Dalong has nine days left and he will definitely die.But the ghost guard didn't detain the female ghost Chen Ming, but she was destined to strangle Huang Dalong's Shiyun to death, and then go to the underworld together after revenge.
After hearing the exact news, Jinchang and Dahua had nothing to ask.Since they are all dead people, there is no need to join forces anymore.It's just that Dahua's gossip started to gossip, and he really wanted to know the whole story of this incident, so he decided to sneak into Huang Dalong's house after reporting today's situation to his master and young master, and find out what's going on!
Jin Chang can only tolerate Dahua's curiosity, mainly because he will not allow it to be scratched.So after finding a hotel with Da Hua, he slept by himself.As for my daughter-in-law...he can only wait for the middle of the night to take the initiative to get into his bed.
Zhang Zhifan and Bai Ao spent the whole day at Hao's house quite comfortably.The children of Hao Bing's two sisters are much older than the two of them, and they are already in high school, so there is no way to take them to play.And Hao Liang's son is only six years old even if you are at home, so it is impossible to play together.There is always no possibility for guests to bring children.So the two of them are completely free to do whatever they want.Of course, in the small yard, the only thing that can be done is to ask Hao's parents how to make mutton dishes that are delicious.
Hao's father heard Zhang Zhifan say that he will be a great chef in the future, and I will make delicious mutton for more people to taste.Here comes the old man's "ambition".He took the two children to sit under the big willow tree at the entrance of the alley to enjoy the shade, and began to tell the two of them the secret of making mutton at home, and even mentioned a few words about how to raise and feed the sheep.Zhang Zhifan was serious and took a notebook to write it down.Seeing that the neighbors all wanted to laugh, some retired old men and women who had nothing to do also gathered around, gradually changing from chatting to comparing each other's delicious food.This gave Zhan Zhifan a big advantage.
He ate another big meal in the evening, and now Zhang Zhifan is lying on the kang rubbing his stomach.The eating time of Hao's family is a bit different from theirs.Breakfast is served at 06:30, lunch at 07:30 noon, and dinner at [-]:[-] in the evening.Except for New Year's Day and special days, this time habit has never been changed.They just came yesterday and dinner was an hour early.Habitual recovery today.But in Zhang Zhifanjia, dinner was eaten at six o'clock, so Zhang Zhifan ate a lot because of his hunger.Lie down and hum.
Bai Ao leaned over and rubbed him twice: "You still have something to offer."
Zhang Zhifan was so comfortable after being rubbed, he narrowed his eyes: "It's good that it's different. Grandpa Hao made two dishes with his own hands today, and the taste is really real and heartwarming. I have seen people cook fish and sheep dishes before." , I tried it myself. The taste is not very good, but Grandpa Hao’s croquettes really opened my eyes today. After the mutton and fish are mashed and made into balls, they are really not fishy at all. If I don’t know what it is, I’m sure it’s made of fish and mutton. It’s really fresh!”
"That's because the local mutton itself is different, and fresh wild grass carp is used. But the taste is quite good. You can consider adding it to the merit banquet in the future."
Speaking of the merit banquet, Zhang Zhifan opened his eyes wide: "Speaking of which, I haven't figured out how to run the ghost restaurant. I go in for two hours every night, and then wait for the ghosts and ghosts to come to order food, and then make it for them. Finished?"
Bai Ao pinched Zhang Zhifan's face. "Don't mess with the name!"
The current Zhang Zhifan has already reached the highest level of showing off his integrity in front of Bai Ao.It's not like he was afraid of that cold and paralyzed Ao Feng like he was in his previous life.So he rubbed his cheeks and complained in a particularly embarrassing way: "You just can't recognize the facts yourself. I'm just being honest. But you haven't said anything serious yet. How do you manage your business?"
"It's just like an ordinary restaurant. But most of those who can afford the merit feast and can enter the Six Realms Sea Network are capable cultivators. But there are also some dark cultivators who appear. But dark cultivators don't need aura or even hate it." Reiki, so they will not appear in our Hongchen tea shop to buy meritorious deeds. As for meritorious deeds, they use spiritual plants and beasts to make dishes similar to Celestial Medicinal Cuisine. I have collected some recipes. Anyway, the chef's realm is getting better. Gao Yue can draw out the aura in the ingredients. The people who come in to eat the merit banquet are actually a process of absorbing the aura. This kind of merit is the added value obtained by spreading out the aura. Just like the plants we plant for elixir, The spreading of those weak spiritual energy into the Void Luo Realm is also a merit and cultivation base. What's more, it is a merit feast with rich spiritual energy."
Zhang Zhifan nodded: "I understand now. Don't you want money?"
The corner of Bai Ao's mouth twitched: "Don't worry, if you don't pay for food, the police from Haiwang will collect it for us."
Zhang Zhifan scratched his arm with a smile. "That said, I'm relieved. Bai Ao, I'll have a good time tonight. Can I stop practicing?"
Bai Ao would compromise on many things, but not in cultivation. "What do you say?"
Zhang Zhifan sighed: "So inconsiderate."
Bai Ao stretched out his index finger and lifted Zhang Zhifan's chin: "When you have cultivated your dantian into a sea of energy, it won't be hard work for you to practice double cultivation. Make sure you pester me every day to..."
Zhang Zhifan kicked over: "Yes, I want your balls! I want to practice, don't disturb me!"
Bai Ao laughed so hard that he fought with Qiu: "You definitely want more than balls. Huh?"
Just as the two of them were murmuring and tugging, Da Hua jumped in from the outside with a whoosh.Seeing that the master and the young master were "making out", he hurriedly covered the cat's eyes with his fleshy claws: "Ah! I didn't mean to peek! Master, please continue!"
Zhang Zhifan was just a few moments away from venting his anger with "Aww".This time, he really kicked Bai Ao away.Then he quickly adjusted his... shorts and vest. "Cough, Dahua, how is the investigation going today?"
Seeing the little daughter-in-law trying to ignore what happened just now, Bai Ao couldn't help laughing.But what Dahua went to investigate was serious business.He also returned to his normal appearance. "Well. Let's talk about it and see what you find."
Dahua moved one of her little paws away, and saw that the owners were well dressed (crossed out), and then she reassuredly told all the things she had inquired during the day and when she was about to investigate.
After listening, Bai Ao frowned.That is to say, the black energy on Auntie and Hao Liang should have nothing to do with that female ghost.Things have no clue again, what a worry-free trip. "You're right. Go and inquire. By the way, inquire about the daily activities of Huang Yufen and Hao Liang. If there is no big discovery, it's fine if you don't come back tomorrow night to report."
Huang Yufen, who was asking the nurse about her eldest brother's condition last night, suddenly trembled. "It's really cool in this room."
The nurse closed the notebook: "Yes. After all, it's a north-facing room, and it's more comfortable to live in in summer. Although the beds are relatively tight, we have to make room for Boss Huang, right?"
