This news was on the Internet for several days. When it was almost over, Xu Zhiyi called and said he would treat them to a meal.
Gu Zhou agreed and took Qi Jing to the restaurant. Surprisingly, Ai Duo was also there.
Qi Jing asked curiously, "Didn't you go to the hospital?"
"I went, had a checkup and am now in the hospital. My mother is taking care of me." Aiduo poured them some tea. "I should have come earlier, but I was delayed there for a few days."
Gu Zhou smiled and praised, "Well done."
"That's right. The news on the Internet hasn't even been released yet, and she's already socially dead. My grandma called me specifically to tell me about it." Xu Zhiyi took a sip of water. He admired Aiduo for doing such an earth-shattering thing.
Ai Duo smiled and said to Qi Jing, "The mountain god appeared in my dream."
"Then what did he say?" Qi Jing was curious about this. Although he knew that the mountain god had raised a wife for him, he didn't know why the mountain god chose Aiduo.
Aiduo held her chin in her hand and said, "I don't know either. It's very vague. Maybe the mountain god didn't take good care of it. I only saw a very vague shadow."
"That's a pity. I thought I could hear some secrets." Qi Jing was a little disappointed. He was really disappointed. Mountain God, it's really not easy to survive until now.
Aiduo asked him, "Is there any way to make him recover faster?"
"Yes, you just need to do more good deeds to help him gain merit."
Aido nodded. If it was a good thing, she really didn't know what to do.
But these are not important. Ai Duo took out a bank card and handed it to Qi Jing. "This is all we can take out. We only keep the necessary living expenses and medical expenses. It's not much, only 500,000."
Qi Jing shook his head, "I've already received my reward, I can't ask for more."
"Take it back. Your father still needs treatment in the later stage, and you have to take care of him. It's not a big deal." Gu Zhou advised. He knew Qi Jing too well. He would not care about someone who did not need to be saved. Once he cared about someone, he would not do it for the money, let alone in Aiduo's situation.
Aiduo's eyes darkened. "I know you don't need this little money, but this is indeed the most we can offer."
Qi Jing tilted his head, "Do you feel bad and think we've been wronged?"
Aiduo didn't answer, but it was obvious what she meant. This was the education she had received since she was a child: she couldn't take advantage of others, and she couldn't let her friends suffer.
Although she didn't think this was a friendship, Qi Jing and Gu Zhou were their family's benefactors and they should repay them.
Qi Jing reached out and held Ai Duo's hand back, "I earn merit, not money."
"I haven't done anything good either." Aido wasn't sure. She just hadn't hurt anyone, but she definitely hadn't done anything good.
"That's not how merit is calculated." Qi Jing withdrew his hand with a serious look on his face. "Merit is actually doing good deeds. You are worthy of my rescue, and if I save you, that's merit. Money nowadays is just a cold, hard number, it means nothing. On the contrary, it's the things you carry with you, or things that have special meaning and carry your emotions, that are more useful to me."
Aiduo understood a little, so she didn't insist on giving him the money. Instead, she asked him, "Is there anything I can do?"
"Yes." Qi Jing took out his phone, opened the chat app and handed it over. "When he recovers, he will come to you in a dream. Ask him why he chose you, and you just tell me."
Aido was puzzled, what was this?
Gu Zhou explained, "Uncle is just simply curious."
Ai Duo said "oh", took out her phone and added Qi Jing as a friend, "If you're curious, I actually have a strange thing going on."
Qi Jing's eyes lit up instantly when he heard that. "Is it something fun?"
"It wasn't very fun, it was quite melodramatic and terrifying." Aiduo thought for a moment before continuing, "I drove here by myself. I ran into a couple at the rest area. I saw a woman riding on the man. No one else could see it, and the woman looked exactly like his girlfriend."
"ride?"
Gu Zhou frowned. Was he being haunted by a ghost?
Aiduo nodded. "She was riding on the man's shoulders and holding his head. It was exactly the same. I thought the man had found a pair of twin sisters."
Gu Zhou raised his eyebrows, "Then they are not twins?"
"No, the female ghost told me that she was killed by that woman and was made to look like her."
Qi Jing widened his eyes in shock, "Is plastic surgery so serious?"
"Probably. They originally looked somewhat similar, so plastic surgery might have been enough." Aiduo held her chin in her hand. "The female ghost told me where her body was. It wasn't far from there, so I went there and called the police. She'd been dead for two years."
Xu Zhiyi couldn't help but feel a chill, "This is really quite terrifying, a female ghost, face-swapping, and murder."
Ai Duo nodded and said, "I was completely stunned at the time. It was the first time in my life that I saw a ghost. And I could only see her. I couldn't see Xiaoyi's ghost husband."
Upon hearing this, Azhuo, who was floating behind Xu Zhiyi, floated back and forth behind Aiduo to make sure that she really couldn't see him.
This situation was really strange. Gu Zhou continued to ask, "Then why didn't you recognize the man?"
"No, the ghost said she wasn't dating when she was murdered, and that woman was her best friend. She knew her very well and often visited her home. Even her parents didn't know." Ai Duo sighed, holding her chin. "For the first time, I felt that this world was so magical. There are ghosts, gods, and even such a terrifying thing as killing a best friend for love."
Qi Jing found this gossip exciting, but a little too cruel. He took a big sip of tea and asked Ai Duo, "Did you take the mountain god's things with you when you went out?"
"What's wrong?" Aiduo asked, and her hand had already consciously taken out a stone from her collar. "Before I left, he told me to bring it with him in a dream. When I woke up this morning, I saw a piece of stone had really fallen off, so I put it on."
Gu Zhou suddenly realized, "The mountain god let you see that female ghost. This can be considered as a disguised way of doing good deeds to accumulate merit."
Only then did Aiduo come to her senses. No wonder she only saw this one and not the others.
"He's still very weak and would rather trust people than God. Just like how he helped your father before, you're acting as a go-between. Now he can also benefit from the merits you've earned. Don't be afraid if you encounter this kind of thing in the future."
Ai Duo naturally took Qi Jing's reminder to heart, but she was still a little worried, "What if I encounter some evil ghost?"
"He probably won't let you deal with evil spirits." Qi Jing tilted his head and thought for a moment before handing her a jade token. "If you're scared, take this. He's too weak right now, and even if he could protect you, it would be a struggle."
Aiduo took it and thanked him, then directly transferred 10,000 yuan to Qi Jing. She knew that this was not a lot, just like the last time in Chuzhou. Qi Jing and the others would not look down on this amount of money, but it was not a lot either, so Qi Jing would not refuse it.
