Looking at the backs of the two, Zhou Yuan felt that the person who had a bad cold laughed at him for some reason before leaving, but the person also seemed not to care about him at all, so he felt a little strange. He had not seen this person before, yet this person seemed to be familiar, so he asked Hao Ning, "Who is that person? He is so sick while having such a bad temper? His words are so vicious that he may die from such anger?"
Hao Ning looked at Zhou Yuan. Unknowingly, the "Maserati" had turned into a Mobike bicycle left by Zhou by the side of the road.
Hao Ning thought in his heart, "His words are vicious? Yours are not any better... Do you have enmity with Avalokiteshvara? You scolded him for having no husband in life previously, and now you even judge him like that?"
It was at this time that he remembered that Zhou Yuan had only heard about Avalokiteshvara from him, but had never seen him in person, so he replied, "Zhang Chihang is the Avalokiteshvara I told you before."
"What, he's Avalokiteshvara? How could Avalokiteshvara become a sickly person? "Upon hearing Hao Ning's response, Zhou Yuan was about to ask Hao Ning in surprise, but the latter immediately waved his hand and said," Don't ask me, I don't know either. Besides, this is not the time to be surprised. Let's hurry up and go to Qili's place."
The two of them asked around in the hospital, finally finding Qili's ward with much difficulty. Arriving at the door, Hao Ning faintly felt that this ward was a little special, but he couldn't pinpoint the specifics. After entering the room, he found that Qili was lying on the bed. His hands, feet, and chest were tied up with various unknown wires that connected to different instruments. Hao Ning had once seen similar wires in TV shows, but in those scenes, the wires and devices were utilized to test patients either completely unconscious or quietly lying on sickbeds. Still, Qili was playing with his phone with his hands connected to those wires. There were too many wires, and some of them were too short to lift, Qili had to bend over the bed just like a big lobster.
Seeing Hao Ning and Zhou Yuan come in, this big lobster jumped up happily, almost grabbing onto the instruments. After taking care of the devices, he greeted the two, "Hey, what's up guys! Take a seat! Help yourself!" As he spoke, he gestured for the two to sit in the ward, as if he was treating guests at his home.
"Oh, yeah, of course." The two of them laughed awkwardly. Hao Ning thought to himself that Qili had a big heart, and he was the young lad that was always ready to interject others' speech and thus was scolded by Liu Shuai, and always forgot what Liu Shuai said in just a second.
"So, how do you feel?" Hao Ning probed and asked, but still did not take the initiative to ask about what happened last night. After all, the person who beat people in the restaurant last night resembled Qili, but Qili had no that kind of expression and martial arts, so the person last night was undoubtedly not this naive and big-hearted lad.
Zhou Yuan did not say a word, however. He just kept squinting his eyes as he looked at Qili.
"I feel great. Nothing is wrong." Qili waved the phone in his hand. Hao Ning could see clearly that he was not playing a video game but reading a novel. After that, Qili's face turned bitter, "But the doctors do not let me go, and they even moved me from a normal ward to this place," With that, Qili indicated for the door with his mouth, "This s.h.i.+t place. There are hardly people here."
That's it! Hao Ning suddenly realized why this place was a little strange. In regular wards, there would always be family members or patients walking back and forth, but on this floor that Qili was on, although nurses were coming and going, no family members could be seen. Hao Ning remembered the look of nurses when he asked about Qili's ward. He regretted not asking what kind of place it was.
"Why can't you leave?" Hao Ning looked at the door and decided to ask Qili.
"I don't know," Qili was also a little confused, "I heard from them that my condition is a little special, so it's best if I wait for a professor to come and check. The professor's last name is, whoops, what's his last name? "
"Is it Chen?" The door opened, then Liu Shuai walked in and looked at Qili with a severe look.
"Yeah, it's Professor Chen!" Qili said happily as he saw Liu Shuai walking in, "Smoky, you are awesome! You can even guess out that!"
"Guess your a.s.s!" Liu Shuai was fl.u.s.tered and exasperated as he glared at Qili. This time, not only Qili, even Hao Ning started to feel weird: Liu Shuai was so concerned about Qili when he heard that he fainted earlier. Now Qili's body was better. Why did he seem to be even angrier?
Before Hao Ning even had a chance to ask, Liu Shuai made a move intending to slap Qili on the face, "How dare you to mess around! How dare you mess around!"
Hao Ning had never seen Liu Shuai treating coworkers like this before, so he immediately stopped him, "Hey, Liu Shuai, take it easy. What do you think you are doing?"
Zhou Yuan was silently looking at Qili, and upon seeing Liu Shuai suddenly go crazy, he immediately tried to stop him, but only to be pushed away. Liu Shuai said, "It's all because of you!"
"Eh?" Zhou Yuan was also stunned. He did not understand what Liu Shuai meant. Liu Shuai acted like he had gone mad the moment he entered the door and scolded everyone he met. Zhou Yuan did not know what the problem was.
After pus.h.i.+ng Zhou Yuan away, Liu Shuai's heart was still filled with unquenchable anger. He stepped forward to grab Zhou Yuan's collar. Seeing this, Hao Ning brushed Liu Shuai aside with his right hand and gently kicked the chair beside him with his right foot. The chair did not flip over but instead moved forward slightly. Just as Liu Shuai stumbled and about to fall on the ground after spinning a few times, the chair moved there in time, and Liu Shuai fell on the chair instead of the ground. It was an accurate calculation. If Liu Shuai span for two circles more or the chair moved slower, then Liu Shuai would have fallen on the ground in a pity posture. It also revealed that Hao Ning had acquired his own understating of the details of martial arts.
Qili wanted to cheer for Hao Ning's action, but he suddenly remembered that the person being "fixed" was his leader, so it was not something to be proud of. At the same time, he did not know what mistake he had committed, so it was better not to say anything. Thus, he kept his mouth closes, which made him hard to hold.
"Hey," Hao Ning noticed that Liu Shuai had calmed down after the chaos. So, he said, "Being angry cannot solve the problem. What's exactly going on? Tell us so that we can think of a solution together."
Liu Shuai sat on the chair with his head lowered, rubbing his bald head without saying a word. After a long while, he raised his head, looked at Hao Ning, took a deep breath, and slowly said, "Do you know what kind of patients live on this floor?"
"No," Hao Ning did not expect it to be this far, so he could only answer honestly, "It just doesn't seem to be a normal ward."
"A plane flew from S City S to Chang'an half a month ago, and the rich man, Mr. w.a.n.g's son, was in it." Liu Shuai did not answer Hao Ning's question, but said something else that did not seem to have any relation with this issue. "The plane entered into the storm lightning layer in the sky. The storm was dense, but what is strange is that after the b.u.mpy plane came into the depths of the clouds, it became stable, and in the end, it pa.s.sed through the clouds safe and sound.
The more Hao Ning listened, the more shocked he became. He knew that the plane that Liu Shuai was talking about was the plane that they rescued from Li Longfei's hands the first time they were in Zhang Chihang's office. It turned out to be a misunderstanding. Li Longfei was trying to save the plane as well.
Without waiting for Hao Ning to recall, Liu Shuai continued to speak quietly, "The plane arrived at Chang'an unscathed, but just in a short period, a few pa.s.sengers who returned to S City, after a few days fell unconscious. They were diagnosed to be vegetable in the preliminary test, and they were placed inwards in this floor."
"Vegetable?" Hao Ning was startled. He had a feeling that something was amiss, "Why did they suddenly become vegetable?"
"This is a strange part," Liu Shuai looked at Hao Ning. Although he said that it was strange, there was a very determined look in his eyes, as if he had already found the answer himself. "These people didn't have any similar work experience before, nor did they know each other. The only thing they shared is that they rode on the same plane and encountered that strange lightning together, maybe —" Liu Shuai swallowed his saliva. He looked at Zhou Yuan, then shook his head, "Maybe they lost something in the lightning."
"d.a.m.ned!" Hao Ning shouted. He recalled Longfei's words that night. Longfei appeared in the plan because he found non-human animal spirits in it, and he couldn't bear the hunger and wanted to pull them out to eat. That night, after Zhang Chihang subdued Longfei, to prove his innocence, Longfei even showed the animal spirits to Zhang Chihang. Besides, Zhang Quan and Zhang Chihang mentioned that a few individuals in the plan might lose their souls for some reasons, just like Zhou Yuan, and their souls had been swapped for the souls of animals.
After thinking thoroughly, Hao Ning became a little clearer on the situation. Although those few people acquired animal souls, a part of those had been extracted by Li Longfei during the thunderstorm, so their souls became incomplete. It was just like what Zhang Quan and Liu Shuai had said later on. When their souls were incomplete, souls would force their bodies to enter a state of soul protection, which resembled vegetables in outside appearance.
"Then?" Although Hao Ning understood it, he couldn't say it explicitly since he still had a question, "What does this have to do with Qili? Qili was not on that plane. "
"Qili..." Liu Shuai looked at Qili in disappointment. "I heard that he was put in this ward because a part of his body's characteristics was detected to be the same as these people."
"Huh?" Although Qili did not understand totally, he vaguely comprehended that Liu Shuai was comparing him to a vegetable, so he couldn't help but retort, "I'm fine now. Look at me. How do I look like a vegetable?"
"You heard it?" What Hao Ning was concerned about was this small detail that Liu Shuai mentioned, and he had some doubt as well, "Where did you hear it from? How do you know all this? "
"Fine. It seemed like disasters cannot be avoided. " Liu Shuai lowered his head and wiped his face, "Professor Chen you guys were talking about was my advisor in college."
