Ancient Art of Sealing Ghosts

Sitting outside the emergency room, I lowered my head and fiddled with my fingers, my heart was in a mess, I kept praying that Dao Feng would be safe and sound, while Ji Xuan sat beside me, staring at the red light with the same anxiety.

This hospital is a nearby county hospital. Although the scale is a bit small, but fortunately, the facilities are complete. According to the guide buddy, this is already the best one here.

When Ji Xuan and I brought Dao Feng in, the doctors and nurses looked at us strangely, obviously doubting our identities. Because I was too tired and impatient, I almost yelled the words I had thought up long ago. Tell them, I said that we are tourists who traveled here by car. We encountered a landslide on the mountain. My brother was buried.

The doctor probably saw that my words were sincere, and the anxiety on my face did not seem to be fake, so he hurriedly called for someone to send Dao Feng to the emergency room.

After that, there is a long wait.

The wounds on Ji Xuan and I have been treated properly, and the poison in the tomb is no longer felt. Presumably, it should be an anesthetic with a time limit. The only hope for the two of us outside the emergency room is that Dao Feng can be safe.

Seeing that Ji Xuan was obviously exhausted, but still sitting on the side and waiting, I couldn't help but feel soft, and said to her: "You go to sleep for a while, I'll just watch, and I'll wake you up as soon as I come out."

Ji Xuan pursed her lips, looked at me with a complicated expression for a while, and said, "Don't you take a rest, you vomited blood before, do you want them to check it?"

"It's okay." I waved my hand, stood up and said, "I'll go get a blanket and smoke a cigarette by the way, and sleep for a while if you're sleepy."

After speaking, I took out my mobile phone from my pocket as I walked out.

Dao Feng is expected to be hospitalized for a period of time after the operation is completed. The operation fee and the subsequent hospitalization expenses have not been paid. The uncle is gone, and Dao Feng is unconscious. The man is here, so I can't let her pay. Fortunately, I have a bank card with me, so it's okay to ask Lao Chu to pay for the emergency.

Thinking about it, I dialed the phone number at home and told Lao Chu briefly about my current situation. After listening to Lao Chu, he knew that I was in a bad mood, so he didn't ask any further questions, but promised to send the money to me later On the card, let me tell him the story when I get home.

Then she told me that my mother was very worried about me, and she made this call in a timely manner. If there is no news a few days later, she might come out to find me.

My heart warmed up, and I quickly agreed to go back immediately after dealing with the matter here, thinking that my mother must be in a hurry to die, and I have to make a good apology to her when I go back.

When there are too many things in my heart, it is easy to lose sight when walking. When I walked to the gate, I accidentally bumped into a man. The man looked strangely familiar. He was about 50 or [-] years old, with a straight body. He walks with a dignified appearance, and has no signs of gaining weight in middle age. He maintains a good figure, lean and strong.

I bumped into him and immediately bowed my head to say sorry, but when I looked up again, I was so shocked by the things behind him that I almost forgot to cover up and shouted out.

It was a wronged soul, and it was a mighty man in armor. Like its owner, it was staring at me intently, but the blood-red eyes and the strange symbol on its forehead proved that it was just a ghost. It is a ghost subdued by humans.

"Your surname is Chu?" The man sensed my gaze, a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said in a low voice, "Say hello to the current head of the Chu family for me."

"You..." I groaned in my heart dozens of times. Compared with this male ghost, my female ghost was extremely weak, but how could this man have a ghost by his side, and he could tell at a glance that I was Chu family?In my impression, the Chu family definitely does not have such a powerful figure, but if he is not the Chu family, which family can be more powerful than the Chu family in this era?

Old Chu and the uncle never said that there are other capable people in dealing with ghosts.

Just when I was in a daze, the man had already disappeared into the crowd with his grievances. My heart was beating so hard that I knew that even if I had something to say in this kind of public place, I couldn’t ask, not to mention that he and I were complete strangers. Wouldn't it be unreasonable to ask and ask?

The aftertaste of shock in my heart still hasn't faded. I came to the parking lot, took out a blanket, cigarettes and some compressed biscuits from the car, and bought two cups of hot milk tea at the small shop at the door. Then I went back to the emergency room while thinking.

Ji Xuan fell into a light sleep for a while after I left, and when I came back with my things in her arms, she just opened her eyes, looking at me with a worried and frightened expression.

"Why don't you come out yet." She said.

"It's coming soon, I'm sure it's okay." I handed her the milk tea and biscuits, and smiled reassuringly.

"By the way, a man came over just now and asked how Dao Feng was doing, and said..." Ji Xuan's eyes suddenly sharpened, and he whispered with gestures: "Let's watch things carefully and be careful of the people of the Tang family."

I was stunned for a moment, and then I replied cautiously: "I see, we'll talk about it when we leave here."

"En." Ji Xuan nodded, took the biscuit and ate it in small bites.

Dao Feng came out of the emergency room in the evening, but he was not out of danger. The doctor said that he would be observed for one night. After tonight, he would be fine. He would be transferred from the intensive care unit to the general ward in a few days.

When I heard this, my heart skipped a beat. How could it be so serious? It seems that if we were later, maybe...

Could it be that he wanted to protect me at that time...

The more I thought about it, the more frustrated I became, I suddenly felt that even if Dao Feng woke up right now, I didn't know how to face him, I owed him too much.

And this matter has just begun, the Xuanji Stone has been obtained, and we have to wait for Dao Feng to wake up before making a decision. We were originally four people, and now we lack an important military adviser, and I am afraid it will be even more difficult in the future.

I thought, I have to become stronger, not only to not hold back, but also to be able to really help Dao Feng, and not let him get hurt for me again.

There is also that strange man. I want to find out who he is and what relationship he has with the Chu family. My intuition tells me that this man is inextricably linked to everything I have encountered so far.

Two days later, I stood in front of Dao Feng's hospital bed, watching him sleeping peacefully, and finally felt relieved.

The doctor said that he would wake up soon, and he was basically out of danger, but his right hand might not be as flexible as before because of the shoulder injury.

I don't know how Dao Feng will react when he hears these words when he wakes up. As a Dao family member, his hands are everything to him. Now that his right arm is injured, it is tantamount to adding a weakness to him.

I was a little afraid to see him disappointed and sad, even if it was hidden under the expression of indifference.

The visiting time is very short, I can't stay here for too long, but as long as I see that he is fine, nothing else matters.

I stretched out my left hand and rubbed my index finger against Dao Feng's pale face, a little greedy for the warmth of his body, which reminded me of the scene when the tomb collapsed.

"I'm leaving first, lest you see me unhappy now." I smiled, knowing that he couldn't hear me, I continued to say: "I will go back to practice and practice, and I will protect you next time."

After speaking, I took a pendant from my neck and gently put it in his palm.

It was when I was very young that Lao Chu went to the temple to pray for me. When I was a child, I always had a high fever for no reason, and it persisted, and my health was very bad. Lao Chu was very anxious, so he ran all the way to Yunnan to ask for an amulet. For me, this amulet is a very strange tooth with unknown origin, but after wearing it, I have never had a serious illness again, and the number of colds and fevers is also very rare.

Now I give this tooth to Dao Feng, hoping that his injuries will heal as soon as possible.

When I walked out of the ward, I happened to meet Ji Xuan who had bought a bunch of groceries. She held them in her arms and looked at me in surprise as I looked ready to go.

"Are you going?"

A woman's intuition is so scary sometimes.

I scratched my head in embarrassment, and said, "Yes, the hospitalization fee and surgery fee have all been paid, and you can just watch Daofeng here."

"You!" Ji Xuan widened his eyes, if he hadn't held something in his hand, he would have punched him long ago.

"You want to leave before Dao Feng wakes up?!" She suppressed her voice and roared, "You just let me stay here alone with him?"

"Well, I don't have the face to see him now." I looked at her helplessly, and put a bank card in her arms: "The money in the card is enough for you, the password is 211314, there is my phone number on the back of the card, Dao Feng woke up Remember to text or call me."

"Get out, take it away, I don't care for your things!" Ji Xuan was still angry, stomped her feet and cursed: "You useless bastard! I will forgive you if you stay now!"

But I want to go back to practice, big sister... I took a few steps back and looked at Ji Xuan. Seeing that she was about to charge up again, I immediately turned around and ran away, thinking that when we meet again next time, this aunt might make me look good.

But for the sake of everything after that, it is nothing to bear this infamy.

Old Chu said that it has been a long time since there has been a strange person in the Chu family who can truly master the technique of sealing ghosts. I think I will be the next one.
