Chapter 95

Yu Tu didn't know that the girl he rescued a few days ago saw the comic by accident and began to suspect that the comic was something that happened in the real world.

He finished reading "The Hypothesis of Spirits" these days and went to the second floor of the library again, asking the administrator, a red-crowned crane, whose expression became increasingly gloomy due to lack of sleep, to find more books about spirits for him.

Anyway, the whole of September was in a semi-holiday state, so Yu Tu simply stayed in the dormitory to read books, and except for three meals a day, he did not step out of the dormitory.

The real person reads books honestly in the dormitory to make up for his lack of knowledge, so it is much easier for him as the pseudonymous Marquis of Nevernight.

He had taken some time to check the "background wall" these days - the tea tree that blocked out the sun in the mansion. The tea tree was lush and green, and there should be nothing wrong with it. However, when Yu Tu probed into the interior, he always felt a kind of indescribable emptiness.

But this problem cannot be solved at his current level, so he can only put it aside for the time being.

After checking the tea trees, Yu Tu went to Renxin Hospital again. Zang Sheng was still elusive. Sometimes Yu Tu would talk to him and find that there was no sound beside him. When he turned around, he disappeared.

After this happened several times, Yu Tu brought tea sets to Zang Sheng's favorite rooftop and invited him to have a cup of tea.

It was a sunny day.

In the white porcelain, in the light green tea, tea leaves are spreading freely, and the sunlight shines down, casting faint shadows on the tea table. Zangsheng is floating in the air, and the sunlight also passes through him, making him radiate warm light.

His translucent fingers held a delicate tea cake and he nibbled on it like a chipmunk, but there were no excess cake crumbs. He took a mouthful of the cake and a sip of tea, his eyes curved with joy as he ate it, as if it were some supreme delicacy.

"Human things are really delicious." Zangsheng floated on the rooftop. In the sunlight, every strand of hair was coated with a layer of dazzling gold. The silver pupils under the white eyelashes seemed to be covered with a layer of gilded gold. "The tea cake is sweet and fragrant. After the bitterness of the tea, it has a little sweetness again."

In the hot steam of the tea and the shining sunlight, the Buyehou, wearing a monocle and a long gown, said helplessly: "...Is this what you want?"

"I am the spirit of the hospital." Zang Sheng floated over. When his white hair stretched to a certain length, it turned into light white and gold spots that scattered around. "I don't need human wealth, and I have a long life. Of course, I don't want anything."

It is good enough for him to be able to taste food and touch objects like humans, and he is not greedy.

Zang Sheng grabbed a piece of tea cake with his translucent fingers and suddenly disappeared from the rooftop. After a few minutes, he reappeared: "I just saw off another little friend."

He floated to the edge of the rooftop and pointed to a spot among the pedestrians coming and going below the hospital building: "Look, that's the kid. His arms and legs are very strong. He looks very healthy."

“I like that building, that building is full of laughter,” he said. “In the other buildings… there’s too much death.”

Zang Sheng's thoughts always jump a little, perhaps because no one can see him. After making friends with Buyehou, he becomes particularly lively: "Do you know what it's like after death?"

For the first time, he mentioned to his friend what he had seen, the real death: "People do have souls after they die, but their souls are too light, lighter than smoke. The moment they leave their bodies, they will hover around the people they loved most in life, and then slowly dissipate into the air."

"Some people say there are signs when a loved one dies, and some people say they dream about the deceased who have been gone for a long time... Those are all souls that are scattered, and blood relatives resonate with the souls at that moment, capturing their fate in the form of dreams, or words that were not completed before their death."

Zangsheng had seen many scenes of souls disappearing in the hospital: snow-white hospital beds, skinny arms, and sophisticated and expensive instruments that could no longer save life for even a moment. Amid the cries, they emitted a steady buzzing sound, like a bell counting down the seconds of life.

Souls unwilling to give up life floated up from the heavy and rotten bodies. At first, they had confused looks on their faces. Then some wanted to return to their bodies, while others wanted to hug the people crying around the bed. However, within a few nights, they disappeared completely without a trace.

Unless the resentment turns into a ghost, ordinary souls cannot survive in the world for long. They will disperse and wander anywhere in this world. Then one day by chance, a new soul will be born in the world and be reborn as a human being.

Therefore, people have no past life, let alone future life. This life is just this life, and there will be no next life.

When Zang Sheng shared all of this, there was still a faint smile on his face, as if he didn't care that much about the topic of life and death. However, the light from his body was radiating more frequently than before.

Zang Sheng took a sip of tea and sighed, "When a person dies, it is like smoke dispersing, and all the dust before turns to ashes."

So…

Whenever he meets someone struggling on the brink of life and death, he can't help but give them a push.

The bleeding point during the operation suddenly stopped for a moment, the stopped heartbeat continued for a few seconds, and the severe pain that was so severe that it was about to collapse was relieved for a moment...

What he did may or may not be useful, and more people died than survived.

He just did the best he could with a clear conscience.

The last piece of tea paste on the tea tray also went into Zangsheng's stomach. He turned over the exquisite basket, trying to find some hidden delicious food inside. Because of his movement, a bead fell out from the gap and rolled several times on the tea table.

"Eh?" Zang Sheng picked up the bead and held it in front of his eyes, "What is this?"

The beads were reflected in the dark pupils of Buyehou.

“…They are transparent glass beads.” said Yu Tu.

He must have accidentally brought it in when he was looking for a basket on the antique shelf.

Zang Sheng stared at the glass bead, thoughtfully.

"Can you lend it to me first?" he said.

"What are you going to do?"

Zang Sheng smiled mischievously: "A little kid was moved into a ward two days ago. He was very energetic even though he was sick. He also had a very cute cat."

His parents would bring the cat from home every day to play with him for an hour. The cat was a small, furry ball with a cute voice and loved to fumble with laser pointers and the little mouse toys that ran around on the floor.

"You want to use glass beads to reflect light spots to amuse the cat?" Buyehou put his hand to his lips, with a hint of laughter in his voice, "I'll bring you a laser pen next time."

"Okay!" Zang Shengle nodded happily, "But let's just get by with it today!"

After finishing the tea paste and drinking all the tea, Zangsheng grabbed the glass beads and floated up. The sunlight fell on his white hair, as if he was also a golden furry human.

At the entrance to the rooftop, Zang Sheng's eyebrows were curved, and the figure of Buyehou was reflected in his silver pupils: "See you tomorrow!"

Buyehou, who was collecting teacups, raised his head and said with a smile, "See you tomorrow."

Zang Sheng disappeared from the rooftop, and Yu Tu slowly packed up the tea table and basket. It took a lot of energy to create something out of thin air. As a cost-conscious expert, Yu Tu would of course choose to find a way to bring these things over instead of wasting energy on making them on the rooftop.

After using a little energy to send items such as the tea table and basket back to the teahouse, Yu Tu slowly got down from the rooftop. He went to the building where the ward that Zang Sheng mentioned was located a few days ago. To live in that building, two conditions must be met: one is that the family is very rich, and the other is that the person really has a very difficult to cure disease.

It took me quite some time to pack up, and I don’t know how Zangsheng’s cat is doing.

Yu Tu thought.

Before he even reached the bottom of the building, he heard the melodious and cheerful sound of a piano. Zangsheng had introduced him to a young man who had moved in last month. He was quite handsome, but unfortunately all his hair had fallen out due to chemotherapy. He was a very optimistic person, though, and would play the piano every now and then.

When he reached the lawn downstairs, Yu Tu heard the lazy and coquettish meow of a cat. He looked up and saw a beautiful black cat squatting on the balcony on the second floor, licking its paws. Behind it was the nervous voice of a woman—

"Mimi, baby, don't move, I'll hold you down..."

The black cat glanced back, and Yu Tu had a momentary illusion that he saw human silence in the black cat's eyes. The cat stretched gracefully on the edge of the balcony, then twisted its waist and jumped back. In the woman's relieved voice, he could hear a very unconvinced meow as if she was arguing.

Yu Tu smiled unconsciously.

...It's really cute.

He took a step forward and stepped on something hard.

Yu Tu lowered his head and saw a transparent glass bead lying in the soil.

It’s exactly the same as the one that Zang Sheng took away.

*

Zang Sheng did not show up in the hospital the entire day.

The original body and the vest can be used in dual-card dual-standby mode, or single-card single-standby mode, so Yu Tu put his body into a deep sleep to ensure that he would not die suddenly, and then he drove the vest of Buyehou and stayed in the teahouse.

Buyehou cannot control what the other party wants in order to establish a good relationship, but Zangsheng wants to taste the food like humans and touch tangible objects, which is what he wants.

The good karma was over, and Yu Tu had no way of determining Zang Sheng's situation. But he always felt a vague sense of uneasiness in his heart, which prevented him from sleeping well.

After strolling around the teahouse and petting the dog a few times, Little Gray was so annoyed that he burrowed into his den and pretended to be dead.

Yu Tu stood at the door of the teahouse for a while, and finally pushed the door open—

He wanted to go to the hospital again in the evening.

It was late at night and there were no pedestrians on the street. Only the light from street lamps illuminated the empty ground.

Because it takes energy to open the shielding field, and the energy consumption in the past few days is a bit high, he simply took a small path where few people were. But halfway through the path, he regretted it.

He never imagined that the street lights on the remote paths were broken and no one had repaired them. There was no star or moon at night and without the street lights it was pitch dark.

Yu Tu: “…”

unwise.

After confirming that there was no surveillance nearby, he stretched out his hand forward, and a long black pole silently extended in his palm. After extending to a certain length, it extended vertically downward, and a somewhat ancient lantern appeared with tassels hanging from the bottom of the lantern.

Light filtered through the gauze covering the four sides, illuminating a small area of ​​ground in front of me.

Yu Tu looked at the exquisite lantern in his hand and decided to let Zang Sheng play with it when they got to the hospital. He hoped that if someone in the hospital accidentally saw a lantern flying in the air, they would not think they saw a ghost.

He walked forward with the lamp in hand. After walking for a distance, Buyehou's sharp five senses fed back a message—

Danger ahead.
