24. Truth

Lin Jian pushed open the door.

Gu Hai was half-leaning on the hospital bed, with pillows and futons under him, and his eyes were fixed on the door for a moment. When he saw Lin Jian, a touch of disappointment slipped across his face.

"Where's Bai?" He asked softly, though his voice was weak and hoarse, but it was still majestic.

Hearing his words, Mrs. Gu, who was sitting in the corner, raised her beautiful face with tears in her eyes, and she glanced at her dying son on the hospital bed with infinite sadness, but she quickly lowered her head.

"Where's Bai?" Gu Hai ignored his mother, and he repeated it again. Because of illness and emaciation, his eye sockets were extraordinarily large, and his eyes were extraordinarily deep. And now, these pair of deep dark eyes were staring at Lin Jian directly, and their eyes were like swords.

Lin Jian froze where he was, a little speechless - some animal instinct roared deep in his subconscious, warning him to keep silent.

He decided to talk to him.

"Is Mr. Gu better?"

Gu Hai sneered lightly, his eyes were full of sarcasm and ridicule, he raised his head slightly, staring at the white ceiling.

"Where's Bai?"

With a creak, the ward door was pushed open again. Xiao Zhenyi lined up, holding a pile of rune paper in his arms. He glanced around the entire ward, and his gaze fell on Gu Hai.

"Mr. Gu." Xiao Zhenyi's voice was calm and steady, "You should rest more." ”

Gu Hai ignored him completely, he stared at the ceiling by himself, and said indifferently, "Where is Abai?" ”

"I don't know." Xiao Zhenyi's tone was flat, "Mr. Bai should be no longer alive, right?" And where does it come from? ”

Hearing the words that he was not alive, Gu Hai finally reacted, he slowly moved his eyes, and stared at Xiao Zhenyi without blinking, his eyes were cold. That demeanor was really terrifying, and Xiao Zhenyi couldn't help but take half a step back.

After a long time, Gu Hai suddenly smiled.

"Yes," he said softly, "what a capable man." Yes, yes—Bai is dead, isn't it, mother? ”

Mrs. Gu let out a sad and low sob, and Gu Hai's smile became even brighter.

"Why bother, Mom." He said softly, "When you and Vivien transferred him to an alien planet to set up a hospital, you should have thought of this day - how dangerous it is there, if you are not careful, a good person may die in a cosmic accident, and even the corpse cannot be found...... Ah Bai's brain is not very bright, let alone Lin Yao who is fueling the troubles. Isn't it, Mom? ”

Mrs. Gu raised her head, her eyes were already red and swollen like a peach, and her gorgeous makeup was a mess and miserable, it was really a wolf to the extreme. She glanced hastily at the hospital room, and shrunk into a ball again.

Gu Hai didn't look at him again, his eyes drooped, and he looked at the key chain on the futon. After a long time, there were a few more wet marks on the snow-white bedding.

"He's going to come and see me." He muttered to himself, "It's coming." The souls are all going to ask for their lives, and they will definitely come to ask for my life, and they will definitely come to ask for my life—"

"Not necessarily." Bai Blem said indifferently.

The ward was pushed open again, and the delicate and emaciated young man stood straight at the door, his face as calm as water.

Bai Fang closed the door very calmly, his gaze swept over the frightened faces in the ward inch by inch, and finally fell on Gu Hai's face - unexpectedly, the dying man's expression was still unshocked, as if he had expected this visit.

A visit between life and death.

The two looked at each other silently, and their eyes were full of immobility.

After a long time, the white blemish removed his eyes.

He looked at Mrs. Gu, who was cowering in the corner, and suddenly smiled.

"Mrs. Gu is really extraordinary." He whispered softly, "Compared to heroines like you, Lin Yao and Vivian, who are even more timid and incompetent juniors, are really difficult to get up to. Gu's hostess lives up to her name. ”

Although his tone was indifferent, what he said was extremely resentful and hateful. Mrs. Gu's body trembled slightly, and she finally raised her head. She looked up at her filthy face, her eyes sparkling. She forced her eyes to be white, and her tone was cold and arrogant, as if she was still a beautiful lady.

"What are you doing here?"

Unexpectedly, Bai Fang was not embarrassed at all, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and his eyes were full of smiles. He spoke softly, and his tone was so gentle that he seemed to be saying a love word: "Send your son to the end." ”

This sentence bit Madame Gu's throat like a poisonous snake - at that moment she seemed to want to pounce on her and tear apart the white blemish, but in the end she sat down, her face as pale as paper.

"I've been confused for a long time." Bai Fang didn't pay attention to Mrs. Gu's pale face, nor did he pay attention to the desolation on Gu Hai's face, he whispered softly and slowly, word by word, every word was oozing with shudders: "Until I was dragged out of the spaceship by the black hole storm (Gu Hai trembled for a moment), until I suddenly woke up in the universe, until I found that I was no longer a human or a ghost (Xiao Zhenyi glanced at him in surprise), I was still stupid to think that I was unlucky...... Alas, when I woke up in the ruins of the spaceship, I was half dead, half alive. It took me more than half a month to float back, thinking all the way, and I don't know if Ah Hai will be anxious? At that time, I was very worried, so I thought of contacting Lin Yao, planning to ask about the situation from a friend. But no one expected that my friend would be incoherent when he saw me, and his mouth was full of nonsense in fright—alas, the nonsense she said really made me a fool and suddenly realized...... So life is really wonderful, isn't it, Mrs. Gu? ”

"So what did you suddenly realize, Bai?"

Gu Hai's voice was low, almost whispering.

"That's a lot." Bai Fang said faintly, "For example, how did Vivian climb to the Gu Clan?" - Of course, you have to tell sù, right? Mother's life is difficult, but it is also very embarrassing. But Lin Yao's words are also very interesting, she said that this is Mr. Gu's genius and wisdom - Mrs. Gu's maiden family is so powerful, and Vivian seems to have a little bit of Liu family's blood......"

This sentence was like a slap in the face, and the last bit of blood on Gu Hai's face disappeared.

"I was wrong, Bai." His face was gloomy, "I was wrong, I shouldn't have coveted that, I shouldn't have ...... But I really love—"

"Really? But I don't care much about whether I love it or not."

Bai Fang smiled slightly, turned his eyes to look directly at Mrs. Gu, and his expression was calm: "I have been a doctor for so long on weekdays, and I don't really know what it's like to die until I die, it's really uncomfortable." Alas, I swore to let a few of you taste dying together, but as time goes by, it will be forgotten after all-now Lin Yao is half-crazy, and Vivien is eighty percent disfigured, as for you-"

"Enough!" Mrs. Gu stood up suddenly, angry and shouted: "Mr. Lin, arrest him for me!" ”

Lin Jian and Xiao Zhenyi looked at each other, and neither of them moved. After a long time, Xiao Zhenyi coughed and spoke.

"Mrs. Gu, you don't know. This ward is already under spells, and it is impossible for ordinary ghosts to enter......"

"Nonsense!" Mrs. Gu screamed, "How much money do you want, I'll give it!" I'll give! ”

"It's not a matter of money...... Xiao Zhenyi reluctantly, "Besides, ordinary ghosts can't be daylight......

"What do you mean?!" Gu Hai suddenly raised his head and shouted!

"As far as I guess," Xiao Zhenyi explained, "Mr. Bai is already dead, and his body should also be in the vast universe." Now Mr. Bai can still walk and talk, relying on something else......"

"What?!"

"Ghosts are the remnants of people," Lin Jian said, "Without a steady supply of essence, ghosts will never have entities. ”

"Spirit?" Mrs. Gu said slowly, "Essence? She turned her head slowly. stared at Gu Hai's haggard and fragmented face-

"He's sucking my son's spirit! Get him! Catch him, devil! ”

Lin Jian didn't move, and Xiao Zhenyi didn't move either.

Mrs. Gu turned her head abruptly and roared with all her might: "Are you just watching?!" I give money! -- I'll give you money, how much -- "

"No, it's not." Lin Jian said in a low voice.

"What isn't, what isn't!"

"It's not Mr. Bai who 'sucks'."

"What do you mean—"

"What we mean is," Xiao Zhenyi said word for word, "Mr. Bai's essence was 'given' by your son on his own initiative." ”

"What-?" Mrs. Gu shook her head frantically and screamed, "What-"

"In other words," Lin Jian added, "Your son is very reluctant to Mr. Bai to die, and his mind is so strong that he senses it and takes the initiative to output his essence—"

"Active?" Bai Blem said in a dumb voice, "Active? How can it be? ”

"yes." Gu Hai hissed and laughed, "How is it possible?" ”

"Ah Bai...... he gasped twice and said slowly, "Of course I like money very much, and I also like power." But none of this would be interesting without you......"

This time, Bai Fang didn't refute again, he was silent, silently looking directly at Gu Hai.

Half a day. The two of them were still silent, only Mrs. Gu's sobs in the ward, and Gu Hai's almost inaudible gasps.

In such desolation, Xiao Lin and the others could only glance back and forth, and their hearts were really uncomfortable.

Xiao Zhenyi couldn't bear it anymore. He coughed and interjected hastily. "Two ...... What was decided? ”

"What decision?" White blemish said in a trance, "What decision?" ”

He laughed miserably, and his voice was full of sadness. With his laughter, Gu Hai collapsed limply on the bed, unable to support it anymore. Mrs. Gu stood up suddenly, but shook again and sat down abruptly.

"It's too late." Bai Fang said sadly, "It's too late. ”

It's too late - the face of the person on the hospital bed is already gray, as if dying, the figure in front of the door is shaking, gradually trance, the spirit will eventually dissipate, and the two of them will go to Huangquan together.

However,

"Have you ever heard of raising ghosts?"

Lin Jian hesitated.
