"Why haven't you come yet? The phone didn't get through. ”

It was already half past seven in the evening, and Xiao Wu hadn't come to the agreed restaurant yet. For Zhao Shiming, who knows that Xiao Wu has always been punctual, this phenomenon is very strange.

"The phone is out of battery, and there are more patients." Jiang Chengyu said while looking at the news on his mobile phone, taking a sip of tea.

Jiang Chengyu also heard Zhao Shiming tell some deeds about Xiao Wu during this time, and he still admired Dr. Xiao who was about to meet. Medicine is a difficult subject to learn, but he can be proficient in everything, which can also show that this person's talent is very good.

"Then he should have called me at seven o'clock, what happened?" Zhao Shiming muttered, called Xiao Wu's phone again, and the phone was still turned off, "Forget it, let's order food first." ”

After some brief conversations, the dishes were served, because Xiao Wu didn't come, so he only ordered four dishes and one soup, which can be regarded as a standard meal.

"It tastes good." Jiang Chengyu also has some particularity about food, two vegetarian dishes, two meat and one soup, which are very in line with his taste.

"Of course, this restaurant can be regarded as one of the best flavors in Chang'anli." Zhao Shiming also nodded, finished drinking a bowl of soup, wiped his mouth and said, "How is it, have you considered joining my sect?" ”

"What's in it for me to join the sect? Your sect is not big, there are only two of you. Jiang Chengyu didn't beat around the bush and said it directly.

"Of course, there are many benefits, and with some previous experience, you can avoid taking a lot of detours." Zhao Shiming began to talk about how good it was after joining the sect.

"Okay, I know all of this, but I don't really have much interest in joining the sect. I just want to ask, can you sell or borrow your books? After a day of thinking, Jiang Chengyu thought that joining the sect was indeed not as comfortable as living freely and freely, but he was very tempted by the classics and materials in those sects.

"Of course you can't! If we could sell it, why would we be living such a poor life now? Zhao Shiming said helplessly.

Sect classics cannot be sold, this is a rule handed down from the ancestors of the sect, and it has never changed. Even at the most difficult stage of the sect, no one in the sect would have the idea of selling the sect's classics. Nowadays, computer technology is so advanced, no one will want to enter them into documents and save them on a computer, or use paper books to store them as in the past.

"If you want to borrow it, there are certain rules for the sect. If you just want to get the record information of these classics, if you don't need exercises, it doesn't matter if you can't add a sect, but the difficulty of borrowing is relatively high, I can issue tasks from the sect, and then you will get contribution points after completing the tasks of our sect, so that you can redeem the corresponding borrowing rights and time, but you can't take them out, you can only read them in the library. Zhao Shiming followed Jiang Chengyu for a day and found that Jiang Chengyu seemed to be of a higher level than him, and the exercises he obtained might be better, so there was no demand for the exercises.

But for making such a friend, Zhao Shiming is still very concerned. At the beginning, he didn't expect others to join the sect after listening to what he said, just like Xiao Wu, he also sent out invitations, and he stuck to Xiao Wu for more than half a month, but he didn't impress Xiao Wu at all.

Until Jiang Chengyu and Zhao Shiming finished dinner at half past eight, Xiao Wu didn't have any news.

Zhao Shiming will issue a task to Jiang Chengyu in the name of the sect, that is, to capture the resentful spirits. The lower the level of the newborn Wraith, the better the material for them. Only the sect's exercises have a way to use these materials, so if you can catch some resentful spirits this time, you will definitely not kill them.

"Do you know where his hospital is? Let's go over and see? Jiang Chengyu had an inexplicable feeling when he thought of this question in his mind just now.

"You know, so let's take a taxi? But what else can happen here......" Zhao Shiming suddenly thought of something, "Oh no! We can use resentful spirits as materials, and in addition to ordinary people as nourishment, the greatest nourishment of resentful spirits is human beings like us. Xiao Wu ran out of strength last night and hadn't recovered well, so he went to work, probably something was wrong. ”

……

At half past nine in the evening, except for nurses and doctors on duty in the inpatient department, only the emergency department was still lit.

"Doctor Xiao? He must have left work early, and if he didn't pay attention and couldn't get through on the phone, then go to his office and see if he was still there. Zhao Shiming asked a familiar head nurse.

In the infusion room of the emergency department today, all the patients who are receiving infusions seem a little listless, and there are not even two who are playing with their mobile phones, they are all half-squinting and looking asleep.

Jiang Chengyu glanced inside and felt a very uncomfortable breath, but seeing that there was nothing abnormal about the head nurse and a little nurse who was changing the hanging bottle for the patient, he didn't pay too much attention to it, and climbed up the stairs from the corner to the fifth floor with the faint light of the mobile phone flashlight.

"This hospital is so rich, it doesn't even install an elevator, so it's tiring to go up and down the stairs." Zhao Shiming complained, forming an echo in the empty corridor. The seventh floor is the highest floor of the outpatient department of this hospital, after all, it is large enough, and there are still many vacant offices on smaller floors.

"There are stairs on both sides and an elevator in the middle, but it's only used to transport first responders." When Jiang Chengyu came in, he had already observed the layout of the hospital clearly, and now most hospitals are like this, the elevator is only used to transport emergency patients or some patients with limited mobility, and will not be used for daily stairs and stairs.

The footsteps of the two of them were heard in the empty corridor, as if they could reach far away.

"Then you don't have to close the corridor, it's weird, there's not even a voice-activated switch." Zhao Shiming complained once when he walked up the stairs.

"Well, this makes sense, it should have a voice-activated switch, but it didn't light up for some reason." Jiang Chengyu saw that the emergency and other things in the stairwell did not light up, so he had a guess.

Zhao Shiming hurriedly looked left and right, shone the flashlight of his mobile phone backwards, and turned around, "Don't scare me, I'm cowardly." ”

"It's hard to say, let's go to your friend's office first."

……

After coming out of the staircase on the fifth floor, there is a long corridor, and after walking to the third entrance, the second consultation room that turns right is Xiao Wu's consultation room.

There are no windows in the hallway, and the soundproofing is good, without a single light or sound coming in from the outside of the building.

Zhao Shiming couldn't help but get a little closer to Jiang Chengyu, who looked relaxed, walking on the corridor as usual.

"Aren't you afraid?" Zhao Shiming asked.

"What's there to be afraid of?" Jiang Chengyu asked rhetorically.

"Ghosts, ghosts, or something inexplicable." Zhao Shiming looked left and right, looked back behind him from time to time, and said to Jiang Chengyu.

Jiang Chengyu originally wanted to say, where do ghosts come from in this world, don't be superstitious, but immediately remembered that resentful spirits can exist, and ghosts may also have a way of existence. As for how they existed, it was indeed a question that needed to be figured out, Jiang Chengyu put his hand on his chin as he walked, thinking about these questions.

However, he didn't forget to answer Zhao Shiming's words, picked his eyes and said, "You and I are both capable people, are you still afraid of those?" How old are you? ”

"To be honest, this is the first time I've been involved in these issues, and the day before yesterday I was just sitting in the car far away and waiting for the drive." Zhao Shiming said.

"This is Xiao Wu's consultation room?" The two finally came to the door of Xiao Wu's clinic and took a photo with a mobile phone flashlight, and the sign "Special Clinic" outside the door of the clinic made Jiang Chengyu slander for a while.

"At that time, I also felt that this was not grand enough, and it should be changed to 'Medical Dao Holy Hand' to be more appropriate." Zhao Shiming saw that after Jiang Chengyu saw the sign at the door of the clinic, his expression was similar to the first time he saw this sign, so he said.

Well, Jiang Chengyu thinks that Zhao Shiming's name is not very good.

"The door isn't closed." He noticed that the door was not closed, and a faint white light could still be seen through the crack in the door.

"Doctor Xiao, are you in there? Can we get in? Jiang Chengyu said, but after waiting for more than ten seconds, no one answered.

Zhao Shiming was already hiding behind Jiang Chengyu.

"I opened the door and went in." Jiang Chengyu said loudly, and then slowly pushed the door open.
