Chapter 15: Into the Night (4)

Xia Beifeng finished dinner and walked into the hospital gate when he happened to pass by a man in a hurry. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The man was dressed in a dirty military coat, with his hands in his pockets, and his head was bowed deeply, staring at his toes. His face was flushed, his breathing was very heavy, and white breath kept exhaling from his mouth and nose, disappearing in the wind of the call sign.

Xia Beifeng turned his head to see this person walking quickly past him, and even brought out a small whirlwind, rolling light snowflakes and whirling behind him.

I always felt that this man was a little familiar, but I couldn't remember where I had seen him.

He stared at the figure farther and farther away in confusion, and frowned.

The memories of his youth were too vague, and even though his head hurt when he thought about it, he couldn't remember when he had seen this man, and finally had to give up.

When I walked into the gate of the hospital, I saw the beautiful nurse sister who expressed concern for me last night.

When their eyes met, they invariably showed a friendly smile to each other, and then one to the left and the other to the right, each moving forward.

Ye Baiyu was sitting upright on the bench, his eyes closed, as if he was closing his eyes to recuperate, but he quickly opened his eyes when he heard his footsteps.

And the ghost king, this guy relied on no one to see him, so he simply put his two legs on the bench. One leg is crossed on the knee and the other leg is on the chair surface. The arm wrapped in the red thread was on his knee, and he himself hooked the red thread on his wrist with his fingers, in a bored daze.

"I'm back."

Ye Baiyu nodded at Xia Beifeng and smiled: "If you don't come back, this ghost king may be lonely and kill people." ”

"Huh?"

Xia Beifeng turned his head suspiciously and glanced at the Ghost King.

"You say it again?"

The ghost king smiled at Ye Baiyu "gently", and the hand on his knee was directly clenched into a fist: "What's wrong with me?" ”

"You don't have much, I just see that you are a little bored, and I dare to guess your thoughts."

Ye Baiyu snorted and stood up: "Since you are back, just wait here with this master." The time is almost up, and I'm going to walk around the hospital first to see if I can find any suspicious characters. ”

Xia Beifeng nodded, and before he could respond, he saw Ye Baiyu rushing to the second floor of the hospital with his footsteps.

He didn't even look back. Saying goodbye, he disappeared down the stairs in a deserted manner.

Xia Beifeng had no choice but to sit down next to the Ghost King.

The ghost king still maintained his original posture, wrapping the red thread around his fingers again and again, and his eyes reflected bright red, but it looked a little hollow.

What was he thinking?

Xia Beifeng secretly looked at the side face of the ghost king, guessing the other party's current mood.

He didn't know much about the Ghost King, but for some reason he was so curious about what this guy was thinking.

Although they have the same face, they are two completely different people, if Xiaotian is sitting here, how much can I ......

The thought flashed through his mind, like lightning breaking through the dark clouds, and shook him a little dazed.

How much can be what? How much can you know what he's thinking?

No, in fact, when Xiaotian sat in front of me in a daze, I probably couldn't guess what he was thinking.

Because I don't know my brother at all.

Thinking of this, Xia Beifeng suddenly sighed deflated.

The ghost king, who had been silently in a daze, suddenly came back to his senses, turned his head to him and asked, "Why did you suddenly have a seizure?" So worried about your mother? ”

"No, I just thought of something else."

Xia Beifeng stretched out his hand and patted the Ghost King's shoulder, and said in a sad tone: "I still have a younger brother, the one who hasn't been born in it yet, you know what I mean!" ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the operating room, for fear that the Ghost King would not understand him.

"Your brother...... Oh, it's a boy! What happened to him? ”

The ghost king's eyes lit up suddenly when he heard this, and he seemed to suddenly have some interest, and leaned forward excitedly: "He was twenty years old when you came, what kind of person is he?" Pretty good, right? ”

"It's a very difficult little broken kid!"

Xia Beifeng reached out and rubbed his temples in pain: "Really, it's very difficult, I feel a headache when I think of him." Adolescent rebellion lasted too long, and it didn't listen to people and refused to communicate with us all the time. Know how to eat, eat, play and play every day! has been completely reduced to a waste home squatting. ”

"Adolescence?"

The ghost king was confused and repeated the noun he had never heard: "Squatting at home? What is this? ”

"It's that teenage children are generally disobedient and rebel against their parents or something, and we call that the awakening of self-consciousness peculiar to adolescence. As for squatting at home......"

Xia Beifeng met the confused gaze of the ghost king, "What is self-consciousness", and smiled evilly: "Squatting at home means that after a child is an adult and has the ability to live alone, he still squats at home and does not go out. I don't look for a job, I spend my parents' money every day, and I do something meaningless, like a parasite. ”

It's so cool to scold himself in front of him, and I finally said it after holding it back for many years!

Xia Beifeng looked at the ghost king's unbelievable expression, and always felt that there was a mouthful of evil qi that had been held in his heart for many years and was suddenly vented, and he was physically and mentally happy.

"How so?"

The Ghost King was shocked for a long time before he held back a question: "Your brother shouldn't be such a person!" ”

"And yet he is!"

Xia Beifeng looked like a person who had come over, and patted the ghost king on the shoulder a few more times: "Don't say it's work, he won't even go out of the door." Fortunately, there was takeaway, otherwise he would have starved to death at home because he was too lazy to go out to buy things. ”

"Takeaway...... And what is it? ”

The ghost king's expression seemed to be a little awkward, and he was stuck in his speech: "Is it the kind of takeaway who buys wontons with a burden?" ”

"It's not."

Xia Beifeng shook his head, looked around, and after making sure that no one would see it, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket: "You must know that scientific development and progress are still very fast. For example, this thing, let's call it a mobile phone, and it has more functions. After 20 years, you can order food on your mobile phone, and someone will have it delivered directly to your home if you leave your address...... Money can be paid on the phone. ”

Ghost King: "......"

Why do you suddenly think that human beings are indeed very powerful?

He glanced at the colorful mobile phone screen, and then looked at Xia Beifeng with a smile on his face, and couldn't help but sigh: "That's really good!" Every day when I sit at home and do nothing, someone brings me food, and I may understand a little bit why your brother doesn't go out, it's me and I don't go out. ”

Why do you quickly find empathy with yourself in such things?

I didn't save this person, why are you so lazy anywhere!

Xia Beifeng looked at this ghost king in surprise, and subconsciously distanced himself from him.

Lord Oni, please maintain your appearance of a wise and martial artist in front of me, okay? Can't you just expose your true nature early!

Of course, the ghost king didn't know what Xia Beifeng was thinking in his head, and after he sighed for a while, "It's quite powerful that humans can make this kind of thing", and then continued to look down at the red thread in his hand in a daze.

Xia Beifeng was shocked by the new discovery that "it turns out that Xiaotian's laziness is engraved in his soul", so he also quieted down.

He was immersed in the ultimate puzzle of "is there a problem with my family's education policy" alone, and did not talk to the ghost king again.

Little by little, time passed. Ye Baiyu didn't know where he went, a hospital with only four floors, he didn't come back for half an hour.

Shouldn't it be idle and go to the morgue to talk to someone!

Xia Beifeng was irresponsibly conjecturing, and heard the ghost king speak again.

"You...... Your father, Shen Yunxi, what kind of person is he? ”

The ghost king's voice was not loud, and it was intermittent, as if he was hesitating about something, and the expression on his face looked a little confused.

"Is he good for you? What about your brother? All right? I mean...... Uh-huh, how's your family relationship? ”

"Oh, our old man is very nice! It has always been a free-range attitude towards children. Besides, he is also busy himself, and often has to take students on field trips. When my brother was a child, I basically took it with me, and the old man didn't care much, but he spoiled him very much, and he was worried about wherever he went. As for the material aspect...... You know, our family is not bad for money. ”

Xia Beifeng quickly finished this passage, and carefully scanned the ghost king from beginning to end with an inquiring gaze, and then said meaningfully: "Ghost King senior, why are you asking this?" ”

"It's nothing, just ask."

The ghost king quickly wrapped the red thread around his wrist a few times, smiled at him, and quickly opened the topic: "Why hasn't Ye Baiyu come back, will something happen, or you will look for it?" ”

"I want to stay here and wait for the outcome of the surgery."

Xia Beifeng moved his gaze to the red light at the door of the operating room, and became worried again: "My mother doesn't know what's going on, it should have been a result for so long, I don't dare to leave now." ”

"White dew, she won't ......"

When the ghost king said the general, his eyes suddenly flashed, and he turned his head and coughed: "Don't worry, she'll be fine." You just go and find the one surnamed Ye, I'll help you look at it for a while, you just go and come back quickly. ”

"But ......"

"I, let, you, go, find, find!

He stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Xia Beifeng's eyes, looking impatient, as if he was saying, "Uncle, if I let you go, you can go, don't bother me here".

It's hard to say what will happen in the future, at least at this stage, the existence in front of him still can't be provoked, it's better not to make him angry.

Xia Beifeng struggled for less than three seconds before standing up decisively.

But why did he want to take me away?

When he walked up the stairs, this doubt was still lingering in Xia Beifeng's heart, and he couldn't help but look back at the ghost king behind him.

The beautiful young man dressed in black still maintained his original movements, fiddling with the red thread on his wrist, and his eyes became more and more ethereal.

He doesn't know anything, does he?

After all, it's a ghost king, so it's not surprising that even if you guess something in this case.

Could it be because he knows that he may be my younger brother in the future, so he doesn't know how to face me?

As soon as this speculation appeared in Xia Beifeng's heart, he quickly suppressed it.

Is his old man's face so thin-skinned? No, no, he just annoys me.

It was late, and most of the departments in the hospital were already closed.

The hallway on the second floor was empty, and the miserable white light fell on the smooth floor, reflecting the icy light.

Outside the window, there were snowflakes constantly hitting the glass, and red lightning flashing in the dark clouds.

It's like the beginning of some horror game, maybe now you can push open a door and see a corpse.

Xia Beifeng thought to himself, and quickly inspected the second floor, but did not find Ye Baiyu's figure, so he continued to go up.

Master, what are you going to do, such a small hospital, you can walk around by yourself for so long?

Nothing really really happened, right? Then leave me a letter!

The third floor is a ward, but it is a bit popular.

The cries of children echoed throughout the floor. The parents' patient reassurance or angry lessons were so pale and ineffective in a uniform cry.

There was still a heart-rending old man with a cough living in the ward at the end of the corridor, and Xia Beifeng also had an itchy throat when he heard it, and he had the urge to cough with him.

He hurriedly walked past the third floor, still without finding anything, and then rushed to the stairs on the fourth floor, almost in embarrassment.

The child who shouted "no injection, no medicine" was terrible, but fortunately Xiaotian was not so noisy when he was a child, otherwise I would have strangled him to death.

It should be said that he really deserves to be the Ghost King! Have been so generous since childhood?

He recalled the time when his brother was still young, and couldn't help but think of the great god sitting at the door of the operating room downstairs, and couldn't help but sigh again.

In the middle of the stairs leading to the fourth floor, after turning a corner, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a black shadow slip out of the corner of his gaze.

At the same time, an uncommon but very familiar H chill also came from his side.

The shadow flickered so quickly that it interrupted his thoughts and then vanished quickly, but it caught all his attention.

It's Xue Qing.

Xia Beifeng only felt that his heart seemed to stop beating for a beat, and then quickly turned around and chased in the direction where the black shadow left.

Xue Qing didn't run, she just stood quietly in the corridor of the ward on the third floor, tilting her head and showing a bright smile to the man who rushed down after her.

The surroundings fell silent for a moment, and both the coughing of the old man and the crying of children disappeared cleanly.

Only one person's footsteps echoed in his ears, reminding him that he should have fallen into a trap.

While Xue Qing smiled, the ground under his feet suddenly disappeared. At the end of the stairs down is an empty black abyss, and the familiar cold wind blows from below, making people feel a chill to the bone.

Xia Beifeng stubbornly stopped on the last step.

He held on to the handrail of the stairs beside him, stabilized his violently shaking body, and looked down at Xue Qing.

Xue Qing always looked at him with a half-smiling expression, and raised her eyebrows after seeing that he could really brake the sprint, as if she was very interested in his reaction.

The corners of her black skirt fluttered in the cold wind, and there were no legs under the empty hem of her skirt, making her look like a doll hanging in the air and fluttering in the wind.

"Sure enough, I'm disappointed if you just fall like that."

She bent her eyes at Xia Beifeng, raised her hand and pushed it in the air: "Then you can stay here and never come out." ”

After she said this, she turned around, and with a "whew" she drifted away with the wind and disappeared from Xia Beifeng's sight.

The ground below the stairs returned to its original state, and the cold air around it gradually returned to its temperature.

Xia Beifeng looked at the black iron door in front of him, confused.
