Chapter 12: The Grim Reaper's Continuous Pursuit (5000 Words Chapter)

"Is it acupuncture?" The middle-aged man with glasses said: "I have gone to do Chinese medicine acupuncture, hey, it feels very good." ”

"Acupuncture is just one of the means of Chinese medicine." Zuo Xiaoyou said: "Traditional Chinese medicine pays attention to looking, hearing, asking, and cutting. By looking at the patient's complexion, listening to the patient's voice, asking the patient's symptoms, and touching the patient's wrist pulse with his fingers, you can know what symptoms the patient has, which is even more accurate than the current medical equipment. ”

"Oh, the magic of Chinese medicine." The two detectives were amazed, and the middle-aged man in glasses pointed to the "Compendium of Materia Medica" and asked, "Does this book record those miraculous medical skills?" ”

"Nope." Zuo Xiaoyou shook his head: "This is just the cognition of medicine in Chinese medicine, and the means of confirming the symptoms can only be learned in professional medical schools, and only the skin can be learned within ten years, if you want to reach a certain level, you can't do it without thirty years of hard study." ”

"Thirty years?" The two detectives exclaimed again, and the middle-aged man with glasses said: "If my son goes to study Chinese medicine, maybe by the time he finishes his studies, I will already be old and dead." ”

"So Chinese medicine is not easy to promote." Zuo Xiaoyou shook his head: "A person, even if it takes a lifetime, can only learn 12/10 of Chinese medicine." If a person lives long enough to live for a thousand years, I believe that the Chinese medicine techniques he has learned will definitely cure any disease in the world. ”

"It can't be." The middle-aged man with glasses shook his head: "It is impossible for humans to live that long. ”

"So it's hard to promote Chinese medicine." Zuo Xiaoyou smiled and said, "You say, if I defeat the god of death, then is it possible for me to live forever?" Because even death can't kill me, what else in the world can kill me? ”

"I believe that time can kill anyone." The middle-aged man in glasses smiled: "No one can get rid of the shackles of time. ”

"If you can get rid of it, you are God." The black agent smiled, "Then you don't have to be afraid of death." ”

"Actually, I'm not afraid." Left and right opened the book: "I just don't want Claire to worry." ”

Looking at the light and cloudy appearance of the left and right wind, the two detectives looked at each other, and they both admired this oriental boy.

Should I say that I am worthy of being Chinese? Sure enough, I'm not afraid of death.

A gust of wind blew, bringing in some leaves through the crack in the door.

The black agent went to the window and looked out, and a bolt of lightning streaked across the sky and struck a tree. Struck by lightning. The tree burst into flames in an instant, and to make matters worse, the tree was very close to the wooden house.

β€œohshit!” The black agent turned to Zuo Xiaoyou and asked, "Have we considered the possibility that lightning will smash the cabin?" ”

There was silence in the hut.

"Run!" The three of them rushed out of the hut in unison!

Crackle-boom-

A thick bolt of lightning hit the cabin, and the cabin burned almost instantaneously.

β€œfuck! The door won't open. The black agent closest to the door pulled the doorknob hard, but found that the handle was so fixed that it couldn't be opened.

"Bang the door!" At this time, there was nothing to think about, and Zuo Xiaoyou immediately slammed the door with the two detectives.

The wooden door could not withstand the impact of the three of them, and it collapsed, and the three of them finally escaped in time, but the wooden house that had been cleaned up all afternoon was also finished.

Look at the wooden houses reduced to ashes. Zuo Xiaoyou turned his head to the two detectives and said, "It seems that you are going to help me arrange a place to live." ”

The two agents turned pale.

"It's horrible to dance with the Grim Reaper." So says the black agent.

"We should be thankful that at least we are alive." The middle-aged man with glasses has a good psychological quality, wipes some dirty glasses, puts them on the bridge of his nose again, and looks at Zuo Xiaoyou: "Chinese boy, do you want to consider returning to China?" Maybe our Grim Reaper in the West really can't cross the sea to the East on a mission. ”

"No kidding." Zuo Xiaoyou shook his head: "I won't give my life to planes and ships." ”

"Actually, the safety of airplanes and cruise ships is very high."

"But it's also the hardest thing to save after an accident."

Zuo Xiaoright's words made the middle-aged man with glasses speechless.

Airplanes and ships, the two safest means of transportation, are unfortunately also the two most difficult means of transportation for search and rescue after an accident. After experiencing the incident of the last plane explosion, Zuo Xiaoyou didn't want to give his life to death so soon.

"Okay!" The middle-aged man with glasses said, "Then where are you going now?" Your girlfriend's house? Or come back to the police with us? ”

"Let's go to the police station!" Zuo Xiaoyou said: "Please prepare a bed for me in the interrogation room." Thank you. ”

"You're the first person to ask for an extra bed in the interrogation room."

"There will be a second one later."

……

Early the next morning, Claire and Alex came to the police station and saw Zuo Xiaoyou, who looked pretty good.

"Left!" Claire hugged Zuo Xiaoyou tightly and was very emotional: "God." You're fine, great. ”

"Worries you." Left Xiaoyou comforted Claire, turned his head to look at Alex, Carter, and Billy, and nodded: "I'm fine." ”

The three of them breathed a sigh of relief. Alex asked, "Left, what happened last night?" ”

"The wooden house was struck by lightning and caught fire." Left small right road.

β€œohshit!” Everyone was annoyed. Alex said: "It seems that to avoid the list of deaths, you must be waterproof, electricity-proof, fireproof, and shockproof...... Damn, there are too many means of the Grim Reaper! ”

"There's no need to be upset." Zuo Xiaoyou smiled slightly: "Instead of thinking so much, it's better to think about something positive, such as I successfully avoided the pursuit of death, and I survived, didn't I?" ”

"Hey, that's great news." Billy grinned: "Zuo has long said that the Grim Reaper in the West has no right to interfere with his life and death. Maybe the Grim Reaper can't do anything about Zuo, and with Zuo in front of us to help us block Death, we are all safe. Hehehehehe, great, great. ”

Everyone looked at Billy with strange eyes, and Billy's scalp was tingling: "Am I wrong?" ”

"Nope." Left and right patted Claire on the back and said, "Billy, you're right." The Western Grim Reaper has no jurisdiction over me, an Oriental, but I am between him and you again, and I think he can only threaten me, but not kill me. ”

Looking around: "Maybe I should congratulate you, you're all safe." ”

Everyone smiled, but no one took it seriously, and only took these words as a comfort to them.

"Left." The black agent came over and said, "Now there's a problem. Are you going back with them? Or stay here? ”

"Of course I want to go back!" Claire hugged Zuo Xiaoyou excitedly and said, "Zuo, you don't know how worried I am when I hear the news of your accident, I'm going crazy." ”

"Okay Claire, calm down. I've really said it many times, I'm not going to die, you should believe me. But after all these times, you never believed me. Zuo Xiaoyou said helplessly: "You would rather believe the news of a phone call than believe what I said, I am disappointed." ”

"Not really. Left, I didn't disbelieve you...... I ......" Claire was a little incoherent.

"OK, Claire, I understand." Zuo Xiaoyou pressed his shoulders and said with a serious gaze: "I'll say it one last time, believe me!" I'm not going to die, you're not going to die, we're not going to die. ”

Holding Claire's face with both hands, he patted it hard: "Understand? ”

Claire's cheeks were slapped. But the pain was just right for her to calm down, looking at Zuo Xiaoyou's reassuring eyes, Claire nodded vigorously: "I believe in you!" ”

"That's right." Zuo Xiaoyou smiled slightly, turned his head to the black detective and said, "I still live here." But I need a private space. ”

"There will be no private space in the police station." The black agent shook his head.

"The bathroom, too?"

"Alright! You win. ”

The black agent went to report it, and then the police department arranged for a separate detention cell with a bathroom.

Although the prisons in the United States are overcrowded, there are still vacant detention cells, and this detention room is not bad. Not only does it have a bed, but it also has a bathroom, and there is a TV...... I heard that this is for the suspects of the big shots. Left and right took advantage of it.

"Are you still satisfied?" The black agent asked.

"Thank you." Left small right road.

"No thanks, we just want to observe the Grim Reaper's means through you." The black agent was very honest about the reason. This did not disgust Zuo Xiaoyou and everyone, which was good for both parties.

"Waterproof, electrical, fireproof, shockproof." The black agent said, "If this is going to happen, then we can't do anything." ”

"No, there is a way." Claire said: "Cover the whole room with sponge, wrap all sharp places, and search anyone who comes in in advance, and don't allow anything that can cause accidents to bring in, so that nothing is lost." ”

Everyone was conquered by Claire's idea, and Zuo Xiaoyou also sighed, worthy of Claire, and told all the means she used in the second part of the series. But isn't it too early to think?

"That's too cautious." Zuo Xiaoyou shook his head: "I need a few more opportunities to be tempted." Is death the only threat to me? Or can it really kill me? ”

"Left, that's not smart." Claire Drive.

"There's an old Chinese saying." Zuo Xiaoyou smiled slightly: "Being smart is mistaken by being smart." In fact, sometimes the smarter a person is, the more he will be killed by his own ingenuity. Man is never as good as heaven. ”

"Zuo, what are you talking about?" Billy was dumbfounded: "I don't understand. He turned to the crowd and asked, "What about you?" ”

Everyone shook their heads: "We don't understand either." ”

"It's better to live a simpler life." Zuo Xiaoyou said helplessly: "Thinking too much will only cause trouble." ”

"Oh." I understood it this time.

"The Chinese's mind is really complicated, obviously it can be explained simply, why should it be said so profoundly?" Billy, a simple-minded representative, questioned it strongly.

"Maybe the Chinese were too smart to create this code-like language." Carter guessed.

Enough of you!

……

Since nothing happened, Alex and the three of them left quickly, leaving only Claire behind.

"Your breakfast." Claire bought two beef pots, which were not bad with Coke.

"Thank you." Zuo Xiaoyou asked, "Have you eaten?" ”

"Nope." Claire said, "I'll eat it when I get back." ”

Zuo Xiaoright's eyes softened, and he stuffed one of the beef pots into her: "I can't eat so much, one of us each." ”

A smile crawled all over Claire's face: "Left, you are such a gentleman." ”

"Did you just find out?" Zuo Xiaoyou smiled slightly: "Eat it!" ”

After a simple breakfast, Claire took away hundreds of millions of children and grandchildren, and left with some difficulty.

Zuo Xiaoyou took a shower, solved the physiological burden, lay on the bed refreshed, and soon fell asleep.

I didn't rest last night. Now I can finally get a good night's sleep.

……

Just as Zuo Xiaoyou was sleeping, the toilet screws in the bathroom loosened and began to drip outward, and the water fell on the floor, slowly draining towards the wall, and then went up towards the wall, straight to the power socket of the TV.

Soon, the power socket was entered by water, and on the other side, there was a stream of water moving towards the bed on the left and right. Soon it fell on Zuo Xiaoright. After that, the power supply touches the water and sends out a strong current, which conducts electricity through the water and acts on the left and right.

Crackling -

The electric light flickered, and Zuo Xiaoright's body shook, unscathed, and he still slept sweetly.

The water seemed to pause for a moment, then increased the current. But no matter how much the current increases. Zuo Xiaoyou is still asleep as if he is fine, not only is he fine, but his complexion seems to be more ruddy than before.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

The current slowly receded, and the current returned to normal.

Afternoon. As soon as Zuo Xiaoyou woke up, he smelled a familiar smell.

"Claire, why are you here?" Look at Claire, who is lying beside him, looking at himself affectionately. Zuo Xiaoright subconsciously hugged her slender waist.

"I bought two movie tickets and wanted to go with you." Claire said.

Zuo Xiaoyou smiled slightly: "Aren't you afraid that I will encounter danger when I go out?" ”

"I think you're right." Claire said: "Being a human being should be simpler, and you can't always look ahead and backward. I'm sure you won't die. So I'm going to go to the movies with you. ”

β€œGOOD。” Zuo Xiaoyou got up: "Then what are we waiting for?" ”

……

The movie ticket is at 8 o'clock in the evening, during which Claire pesters Zuo Xiaoyou to accompany her to the mall, do her hair, buy jewelry, and decorate her whole body.

Zuo Xiaoyou was not idle, she was pulled by Claire to make an image design, her hair was made into a short piece of spirit, the clothes were slim white shirts, black suits, the collar of the shirt was slightly open, a red and black checkered scarf was added, and a pair of black leather shoes appeared, the whole person looked extremely comfortable, casual and fashionable, and solemn.

Zuo Xiaoyou's appearance is indeed ordinary, but he is tall, has a good figure, and has a good temperament. That's what American women love.

Zuo Xiaoyou walked out with a new look, which made the eyes of many women present shine, and even two bold American girls stepped forward to ask for a phone, but they were all blocked by Claire.

"Get out of here, Bichi!"

That's how direct American girls are.

"Zuo, you're really the best." Claire proudly grabbed Zuo Xiao's right arm, and she and Zuo Xiaoyou stood together in the same skirt, which complemented each other very well.

"It's the first time I've worn something like this." Although he was a little unaccustomed to it, he was also happy to see Claire like it so much: "What we did today seems to be the first time since we met." ”

"There will be many times in the future." Claire said meaningfully.

Zuo Xiaoyou looked at her and was silent for a moment: "If I'm gone, remember to live well." ”

"You're not going to die." Claire grabbed him tightly, "You said it. ”

"Hmm." Zuo Xiaoyou smiled slightly: "I won't die." ”

Claire smiled: "It's almost time, let's go eat something first, and then go to the movies!" ”

"It's all up to you."

The two watched a romance movie, although they said so, the male protagonist and the female protagonist were married, and then they both had extramarital affairs, and they wandered outside for a few months, and finally found that the original partner was the most intimate, so they changed their minds and lived a happy life with their original partner......

This kind of shit-like plot, left and right can only hehe.

That's the case with Americans, who think of classic love as the kind of love that 'has been tried and tested' and finds the most suitable partner, and then thinks it's true love.

Logically speaking, there is nothing wrong with it, but Americans have turned "tested" into a "physical" test, not the kind of test where a rich daughter falls in love with a poor boy or a president falls in love with an ugly duckling, and life and emotions go through hardships.

This directly illustrates the fact that Chinese, or people in the pan-Chinese cultural sphere, attach more importance to spiritual communication and enjoyment, while Westerners attach more importance to physical communication and enjoyment. One is tactful, the other is direct; One sullen, one profligate.

It can't be said who is good and who is bad, it varies from person to person. But Zuo Xiaoyou really can't enjoy the American concept of love, what a special wave.

In the process of watching the movie, the room next to the theater is being renovated, and the decorator has already left work, leaving behind sawdust and a large number of flammable and explosive materials.

The window of the room was open, and suddenly a gust of wind blew in from nowhere, blowing down the curtains on the window, and the curtains fell, mostly on a cart, and the hanging mouth just hooked the switch of the fan.

The fan began to work, blowing the trolley with the curtains. The curtain completely detached from the fan, and took the bottle of gasoline open on the trolley, which continued to fall to the ground as the trolley slowly moved forward.

At this time, a rat with a cigarette butt came in, and it was very strange that a mouse could also hold a cigarette butt, and it was a smoking cigarette butt.

The rat burrowed into the sawdust himself, intending to enjoy the smell of the cigarette butt, but the flame of the cigarette butt ignited the sawdust, and the sawdust instantly burned, and the frightened mouse squeaked and ran away.

The sawdust burned on the gasoline that had fallen to the ground, and the gasoline burned down the trolley, which at the other end was a large amount of flammable and explosive chemicals.

Suddenly, Claire felt a pang of discomfort and covered her forehead with her hands, looking overwhelmed.

"Claire, what's wrong?" Zuo Xiaoyou said with concern.

"I ...... There was a very bad feeling that something was going to happen. A cold sweat broke out on Claire's forehead: "It's very similar to the feeling on the plane." (To be continued......)
