Chapter 68 Licking Wounds
I was frightened by Lao He and instinctively dodged to the side. He missed me and did not continue to rush towards me. Instead, he hugged his knees with his hands and gasped heavily.
"Lao He, what are you doing?" I asked with a pale face.
Lao He raised his head, his eyes were bloodshot and deeply sunken. He waved his hands and said, "I'm sorry, I just had a nightmare..."
Nightmare?
He can dream even while squatting on the ground. I really admire him.
But Lao He looked really scary just now. If I hadn't recognized him, I would have thought that some wild beast had been let in.
Lao He asked me what I wanted to see him about?
I told him that Cai Kun would come to Building D tonight and asked him to be prepared.
"If only it had happened a few days earlier, it's a pity that I'm like this now..." Lao He did not show any joy, but stared at the ground, muttering to himself.
"Are you feeling unwell today?" I asked puzzledly.
"No...it's okay. Ask him to come to Building D at two o'clock in the evening. I will be ready." Lao He shook his head and returned to Ward 108.
Looking at his back, I always felt that Lao He was weird, as if he was in some mood and was unwilling to tell me.
…
That night, Cai Kun showed up as expected.
He was wearing a black coat and a mask on his face, wrapping himself tightly. He walked to the door of Building D, stared at it for a long time, and did not come in for a long time.
I walked over and asked him why he didn't come in. Cai Kun laughed dryly and said that he was not used to being here again.
He finally entered Building D, and his frightened eyes slowly calmed down.
"A familiar place... I never thought that I, Cai Kun, would return to this place."
Cai Kun sighed.
He said, "I want to go upstairs and take a look." I said, "Whatever."
Cai Kun walked to the second floor and bumped into Cao Fengjiao who was coming down the stairs.
"You bastard, you don't have eyes. You dress up like this late at night. Who the hell are you trying to scare?" Cao Fengjiao pointed at Cai Kun and cursed.
Cai Kun was so stunned by the scolding that he didn't dare to say a word back.
After Cao Fengjiao left, Cai Kun asked me, "Who is this woman? She's so fierce."
I smiled bitterly and said, "The new nurse is called Cao Fengjiao. She has a bad temper. Don't mess with her, or you'll suffer."
"Building D actually hired a nurse?" Cai Kun was a little surprised, then nodded, "Okay, I'll pay attention next time."
"In the future?" I was stunned and didn't understand what he meant. He said you plan to come here for a long time in the future.
Cai Kun scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly: "Brother Crazy, this is actually my plan. After the matter of Building D is resolved, I will see if I can come back to be the night watchman - after all, my wife owes a lot of debts, and the house has to be sold. Where will we live? Alas, there is no other way. We are forced by life."
I was surprised and asked, "Aren't you planning to sell the house yet?"
"Of course not. This morning, the guy with long hair called my wife and said that I can pay her back slowly and there's no rush. I'm thinking, I'll come to Building D to work in a few days and pay her back slowly." Cai Kun said with a smile, "All this is thanks to you, Crazy Brother."
I was speechless. After all this time, I realized that the other party was afraid of my "fame" and did not dare to force Cai Kun and the others anymore.
I'm really curious about who this crazy guy is. Does he really look like me?
Cai Kun and I wandered around, and when we arrived at Ward 415 on the fourth floor, he poked his head into the door, as if looking for something.
He asked me, "Where is Jiajia?" I said, "Jiajia is not in the ward today. It seems that she went to the outpatient department for examination."
After all, Jiajia is a child and is relatively special, so the hospital gave her some preferential treatment.
"She's still alive ?"
Cai Kun breathed a sigh of relief.
"Well, although she is a terminally ill patient, she has been able to survive until now. Perhaps it is God's blessing." I sighed.
Cai Kun nodded, gently pushed open the door of Ward 415 and walked in.
After a while, he came out with a small ball in his hand.
"When I was a night watchman here, I often played ball with Jia Jia. Ever since those dirty guys got involved with me, I ignored her." Cai Kun smiled bitterly, "The world is unpredictable. A living girl is gone just like that. But I always feel like she played ball with me just yesterday."
As he spoke, Cai Kun took the basketball and started shooting.
He was shooting the basketball while spinning and dancing.
As I danced, tears started to flow.
"Doctor Cai, is that Doctor Cai?"
"It's really Dr. Cai, you're back."
"Xiao Cai, where have you been recently? Why haven't I seen you for a long time?"
The noise of Cai Kun playing basketball attracted some patients to come out and watch. When they found out it was Cai Kun, they were all surprised and greeted him one after another.
"Uncle Zhang, Uncle Liu, Sister Wang..."
Cai Kun smiled and nodded.
It can be seen that he is quite popular in Building D.
After all the patients went back to the ward to rest, Cai Kun continued to walk forward. When he arrived at the door of 404, his eyes suddenly became filled with extreme fear.
I noticed that his legs seemed to have taken root and he couldn't move for a long time.
Beads of sweat the size of beans kept dripping down his forehead .
"Let's go down first." I was afraid that Cai Kun would be affected by 404 and exhibit some mentally abnormal behavior, so I said quickly.
"Okay, okay..." Cai Kun nodded, his face pale, but his feet remained motionless.
I had no choice but to pull him away by force.
Back on the first floor, Cai Kun trembled and said, "I never expected that 404 has become more dangerous than before..."
I asked him what he meant?
Cai Kun said that when he arrived at the door of 404, he heard a lot of cursing and threatening voices coming from inside - the dirty things inside seemed to be about to rush out at any time, constantly banging on the door.
I opened my mouth and asked, "Really? Why didn't I hear anything?"
"Because you don't have the Yin-Yang Eyes, nor do you have the Yin-Yang body, you naturally can't sense these things."
A deep voice sounded.
I don't know when Lao He came over.
"Lao He, after not seeing you for such a long time, you are still the same as before, fond of saying these mysterious words." Cai Kun smiled bitterly when he saw Lao He.
I smiled and said, "You are wrong. Lao He is not trying to be mysterious. He is really capable."
"Okay, let's stop talking nonsense and start now." said Lao He.
"Start what?" Cai Kun asked.
"Of course it's a spell." Lao He glanced at him and said calmly, "Although you have the Yin-Yang Eyes, ordinary dirty things can't do anything to you, but this is Building D. If there are no safety measures, do you think you can survive tonight?"
"Those dirty things are waiting for you to come back eagerly." Lao He smiled coldly.
Cai Kun shuddered and closed his mouth.
I asked Lao He, what do you need him to do?
Lao He glanced at me and said, "The content of the spell cast tonight is called 'Red Thread Leading the Soul'. It is too risky for him to do it alone, so I need your cooperation."
"What, I have to cooperate too?" My scalp felt numb. This was different from what I expected?
"What are you afraid of? You won't be in danger as long as I'm here - ahem."
As Lao He was talking, he coughed twice and looked a little tired.
He asked Cai Kun and I to stand back to back, then tied a red string around our index fingers, and then used cinnabar to draw a strange pattern on the palms of our hands.
After I finished painting here, Lao He went to Cai Kun's side to paint.
"Hey, why is there so much blood on your head?" Lao He looked at Cai Kun and asked.
Cai Kun was stunned for a moment, wiped his forehead, and indeed there was blood flowing out. He said, "Oh, it should be that he was injured yesterday and the wound broke again."
Old He said nothing. He stared at Cai Kun's forehead with a gloomy look, and his breathing became a little rapid.
Then, he made a move that Cai Kun and I did not expect.
He actually stuck out his tongue and licked Cai Kun's bloody wound...
