Volume 1 Beginning of Summer Chapter 48 Grouper
Soon, Jiang You and Tang Butian arrived at Liuming Hospital.
"Wait a minute, Taoist Qingyang. He recognizes the dean." Tang Butian said.
"He knows a lot of people."
"Yes, he has strong business skills, and the White Crane Temple is very popular."
"It seems a bit strange to describe a Taoist priest as having strong business ability," Jiang You took out a box of mints from his pocket, "Mints, want some?"
Tang Butian stretched out his hand.
Jiang You poured two into her palm and then threw two into her mouth.
Tang Butian held the candy in her mouth, her voice becoming a little unclear, "Renovating the temple and the statues requires money, and we need support from pilgrims. The hospital has many customers."
She glanced at her phone, "He'll probably have 10 minutes."
"Has the person who caused the accident been found?"
"It wasn't running. It was a dump truck. The driver was fatigued and ran over it when turning."
Jiang You sighed, "He lost his parents when he was only six years old. Who paid for his medical expenses?"
"It's the hospital's pad."
"Doesn't he have any relatives? Grandparents or something."
Tang Butian lowered her head and typed, as if she was asking someone . After a while, she said, "The family came to Tangjiang ten years ago, and moved their household registration here three years ago. Now his uncle is handling the compensation and property issues."
As he was speaking, Taoist Qingyang walked into the hall. He was not wearing a Taoist robe, but a white Chinese-style short-sleeved shirt with buttons.
He immediately saw Jiang You and Tang Butian. He walked up to them and asked, "Where is that living soul?"
Tang Butian raised the umbrella and said, "Put it inside."
Taoist Qingyang took the umbrella in his hand and glanced at Jiang You. "We meet again."
Jiang You pushed up his glasses and said, "Hello, Taoist Qingyang."
"Hello, little friend." After greeting Jiang You, he looked at Tang Butian and said, "I've called the dean. Let's go directly to the ward."
"good."
Taoist Qingyang was obviously very familiar with the layout of Liuming Hospital. He took Jiang You and Tang Butian to the sixth floor by elevator. After walking through several corridors, they arrived at the door of the intensive care unit.
Head nurse Wu Qi was waiting there. "The director has told me. I'll take you in."
After washing their hands and putting on isolation suits and shoe covers, they walked to Jiang Mo's bed.
Wu Qi pulled down the curtain next to the bed.
Jiang Mo was connected to a respirator and had an IV drip, and his entire face was a bluish-gray color.
Taoist Qingyang opened the umbrella, and Jiang Mo's soul floated out. He glanced at himself on the hospital bed with a puzzled expression.
"I'll try my best." After saying that, Taoist Qingyang walked around the bed, chanting scriptures. The living soul seemed to sense something and pounced on his body, trying hard to squeeze in, but it seemed to be repelled and was squeezed out. Taoist Qingyang made several hand seals on the body and nailed the living soul in.
After repeating this several times, the soul finally merged completely into the body.
Taoist Qingyang wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Why would his body reject him?" Jiang You asked curiously.
"Let's talk outside."
Jiang You nodded.
Walked out of the ward and took off the isolation gown and foot covers.
Taoist Qingyang quickly explained to Jiang You: "Our bodies are containers. It takes energy to hold our souls. His body is extremely weak now. He has to rely on various machines to ensure the minimum functioning of his body. There is no energy left to hold his soul." He paused for a moment. "I just injected a stream of spiritual energy into his body. Whether he can wake up depends on his luck."
After explaining, he said goodbye to Tang Butian and said, "I have to go back to the meeting. I'm leaving first. Contact me by phone if you have anything."
Watching Taoist Qingyang leaving in a hurry, Jiang You said, "He is indeed very capable in his work."
"The Lin'an Taoist Association came to Tangjiang for a visit and exchange, and he had to coordinate a lot of things."
"You are so generous then." Jiang You and Tang Butian walked out of the hospital slowly. "Have you had lunch? If not, can we eat together?"
"good."
Jiang You saw some anticipation in her eyes, so he took out his phone and checked, "Nearby, about a kilometer away, there's a grouper hotpot restaurant that's pretty good, and there's also a steamed seafood restaurant that's pretty good, which one do you want to eat?"
“Grouper hotpot.”
"Walk or take a taxi? Or will you take me flying on a sword?"
"Go ahead."
Jiang You raised his head and glanced at the sun. "Give me the umbrella."
Tang Butian handed the umbrella to Jiang You.
Hold up.
Blocked the sunlight above Tang Bushian’s head.
"Let's go."
Ten minutes later, they arrived at the store and were hit by the cold air.
The waiter took them to a table for two at the side and brought them the menus after they sat down.
"A big pot, or a small pot for each person?" Jiang You asked Tang Butian .
"Small pot."
“Are there any dietary restrictions?”
"No."
Jiang You quickly finished ordering the food, "Aren't you going out to play during the summer vacation?"
"I signed up for an English class with no basic knowledge. It's at Kumei Plaza."
Jiang You was a little surprised, "That's not necessary, aren't you going back to the mountain?"
"I want to learn."
"You were in class before, right? No wonder you came so quickly," Jiang You changed the subject, "What happened to David's organization later?"
"A special task force has been set up and tattoo designs have been classified as sensitive information."
Two small pots were brought up.
The waiter lit the fire and covered the pot.
"You can have a bowl of fish soup first when it opens. The soup here is very delicious."
"Aren't you going to ask about Wan Zi's situation?" Tang Butian looked at Jiang You.
"How is she?"
"Because she made a meritorious report and did not participate in any criminal activity, she is being protected. Once this is over, she can resume her normal life."
"That's great. Thank you."
"McKesson Corporation is hit by a sex bribery scandal ."
"Backlash?"
Tang Bu Tian nodded slightly, "That organization will completely disappear from China."
The water boiled, and they each scooped out a bowl of fish soup. Tang Butian followed Jiang You and put the grouper fillet in.
The thin and transparent fish fillets stretched out in the pan, and after thirty seconds, they were cooked.
Tang Butian took a bite of the fish, then took a sip of the soup, and narrowed his eyes slightly.
"How about it?"
“It’s delicious.”
"Once my kitchen is ready, I can make this kind of hot pot at home," Jiang You dipped the fish fillet in some chili peppers, "Try this shop's chili peppers, they're homemade."
Tang Butian dipped a little with chopsticks, licked it, then picked up a piece of fish fillet and ate it in one bite with chili pepper.
"Isn't it good?"
"tasty."
"I remember that I have to buy the chrysanthemums. Although I can't enjoy the chrysanthemums and eat crabs for the time being, it's still very pleasant to sit in the yard, drink a cup of tea, and chat, right?"
"You have a lot of friends?"
"Okay, we need a swing too. Which kind do you like? The traditional kind, or one that's round so you can put a cushion inside?"
"For the cushions."
"When I have everything ready , I will invite you to come over and try sitting on it. The pomegranate tree should be strong by then."
