Chapter 21: The fox visits the sick and confides the truth
Ye Ying is very confused, she has been an ordinary person since she was a child. Speaking of the most extraordinary thing, probably before the age of thirty, I desperately saved money to buy a house.
...and a haunted house.
What kind of key figure did she suddenly become now?
This is really unimaginable, apart from her fate being suitable for Huang Xize, what other "key" points can she have.
Ye Ying sat on the side of the hospital bed absent-mindedly, until Huang Xize's deep voice came: "You want me to eat apple cores?"
Ye Ying suddenly came back to her senses, and looked down at the apple she was peeling in her hand—good guy, at some point, the flesh was peeled into circles like a peel, and it was long and long like a pencil sawdust.
She put down the apple with a black face, dragged the chair to the side of Huang Xize's bed, looked up at him: "Are you awake?"
Huang Xize murmured: "Have you been here before 30,000 years?" He felt that her aura was obviously left in him - it was probably because of her help.
Ye Ying nodded: "I've been here, Zuo Huai is also here."
After a pause, she said hesitantly, "There's also Zuo Yu."
"You've seen him."
Huang Xize's tone is firm, but now he is more concerned about another matter: "How long have I been asleep?" After speaking, he looked at her: "Are you okay during this time?"
Seeing that what he cared about was not her own physical condition, but her safety, Ye Ying couldn't tell what it was like.
"Why is your face so ugly?"
Perhaps seeing that her expression was too miserable, Huang Xize made a joke in a rare way.
After the operation, his face was very pale, even his lips were white, but he still wanted to tease her: "Are you so afraid of being a widow? What are you afraid of? When the time comes, you will become rich—"
"Yes, I don't want to be a widow."
The words were interrupted by Ye Ying, Huang Xize's expression froze for a moment.
He stared at Ye Ying's face, she didn't dodge any more, and met his gaze directly.
Because of worry and exhaustion, she didn't seem to be in good spirits, but her eyes looking at Huang Xize were bright.
Like a bright star.
Huang Xize's throat moved, his pale lips parted slightly: "Ye..."
With a loud bang, the door behind him was kicked open violently. Ye Ying trembled in fright, and immediately turned her head to look at the past—Zuo Huai was holding two big takeaway bags in both hands, and stood dumbfounded at the door: "I can't control myself..."
As he spoke, he asked cautiously, "Did I bother you?"
Ye Ying rolled his eyes at him, then turned to look at Huang Xize.
Huang Xize looked at Zuo Huai with dark eyes, and a smile of unknown meaning appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Zuo Huai: ...
What to do, seems to be threatened.
…
Huang Xize broke many bones, but fortunately, his internal organs were fine. The director of the hospital called it a miracle when he saw it.
The medical staff can discover new healing progress every day, and they are amazed, wishing to lock him up for research.
Ye Ying asked for leave these days, Zhou Zhirui didn't know what he thought, so he readily approved it.
So Ye Ying stayed with her in the hospital and slept on the bed in the ward at night.
Huang Xize is a local tyrant, and he also lives in a VIP single room.
After all, if the original form is accidentally changed at any time, although there are remedies, it will still be troublesome after all. It's better to directly set up a VIP ward with the highest degree of privacy, which is convenient anyway.
So in fact, Ye Ying's bedtime care is not very painful, it's just feeding and watching the doctors and nurses changing medicines and giving injections.
As for things that are convenient, not to mention Huang Xize's trivial matters as a fairy family can still be taken care of, even if he can't, Zuo Huai can help.
But after all, it's not as good as being at home, but even though Huang Xize said that the family called 30,000 years old to set up an enchantment, which would never put her in danger, Ye Ying still shook her head like a rattle.
"It dared to attack when you were by your side, not to mention you are injured like this now."
Huang Xize: ...
It is really impossible to refute.
Ye Ying lowered her eyelashes, Huang Xize did this to save her, she can't just pretend nothing happened, she should eat and drink.
That was too impersonal.
And she always has a knot in her mind.
Thirty thousand years old said that with Huang Xize's strength, he shouldn't have suffered such serious injuries, and implied that his appearance had something to do with her.
Thirty thousand years said she was "the key."
What does this mean?
Ye Ying thought about asking Huang Xize, but he either deftly avoided the subject or was interrupted by other things.
After so many times, Ye Ying also understood - Huang Xize didn't want to tell her.
Although it was very strange, it was obvious that there was nothing to say to him.
So Ye Ying sneaked out of the ward with Zuo Huai while Huang Xize was sleeping one day.
Ye Ying looked at Zuo Huai, and pulled out a professional smirk: "Huaizi..."
Zuo Huai was trembling all over, and raised his hands: "Elder sister, don't be so weird, give me a good time."
Ye Ying pretended not to be friendly, revealing the essence of a big bad wolf: "I appreciate your bravery. You tell the truth,"
She paused, and her tone was a little serious: "Did Huang Xize get hurt?"
After much deliberation, she found that there was only one possibility to make a powerful person less powerful.
Who knew, Zuo Huai looked at her with the eyes of a fool, and after a while he couldn't help asking: "He's not injured, where are we now?"
Ye Ying: ...
"Is this what I'm talking about?" Ye Ying was mad: "I'm asking before, before! Thirty thousand years ago, with his strength, he shouldn't have suffered such a serious injury this time!"
"And he obviously has the power to scare the haunted house, but he has not subdued it for a long time, and was tricked by it instead. I really can't think of any other reason except that he was injured before."
Zuo Huai looked at Ye Ying, slowly opened his mouth, as if about to blow out a bubble, but quickly closed his mouth again.
He said, "I don't understand, I don't know, I don't know."
"you-"
Ye Ying was furious, obviously Huang Xize not only kept silent, but also asked Zuo Huai to keep silent to her.
But why? !
What is there that she cannot know?
"Just tell her directly."
A casual male voice sounded not far away, echoing in the corridor.
"The so-called fate star is called a fate star only if it is really destined, otherwise it is a 'consumption star'. What's more, he also took the damage and wastage of the 'consumption star'. It is unreasonable to become so brittle in?"
Ye Ying turned around and looked at the person walking at the end of the corridor, a little surprised: "What are you doing here?"
The tall and handsome man has a loose posture, holding a bouquet of flowers on his shoulder with one hand, and putting one hand in the pocket of his leather jacket, complaining half-truthfully: "Ye Ying, we are friends, how do you see me?" So unhappy?"
"Hey, who is your friend."
Ye Ying's eyes fell on the petals falling behind Hu Fengyao coolly, and he spoke with a crit: "When you visit a patient and bring chrysanthemums, do you think everyone has problems with chrysanthemums like you?"
Zuo Huai: "..."
Hu Fengyao: "..."
This woman's mouth is so damaged? !
Hu Fengyao's cynical smile didn't show any cracks after being stunned by Ye Ying for a moment.
After all, this fox has lived for hundreds of years, so he has a thick skin.
He walked up to Ye Ying: "I'm so sad when you're like this. It's obvious that Huang Xize insisted on hiding it from you. I miss my friendship and come to tell you the truth with good intentions. Why do you still blame me?"
Thank you so much.
Ye Ying fixedly looked at Hu Fengyao's cynical smiling face, and suddenly broke into a smile.
That gloomy face suddenly glowed with a breathtaking and unique beauty, and even Hu Fengyao, who had seen countless beauties, lost his mind for a second.
Ye Ying's voice was soft and sweet, and fell into his ears: "Thank you for your painstaking efforts, you would rather pretend to be a woman to establish friendship with me."
"But when you were wearing women's clothing, you could hide it well in such a short skirt,"
Ye Ying looked down, and swayed meaningfully under Hu Fengyao's navel: "It really is a talent."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and went back to the ward.
Hu Fengyao: "..."
Zuo Huai looked at him, then at Ye Ying's back, suddenly burst into wild laughter, and was scolded by the nurse.
Ye Ying closed the door of the ward angrily, and met Huang Xize's eyes.
He asked, "Hu Fengyao?"
Ye Ying nodded, sat on the edge of the bed, looked into Huang Xize's eyes: "What is the 魙? Is it the thing in 2202?"
Huang Xize's hand reaching for water paused, then looked up at her: "What did Hu Fengyao say?"
"Yes." Ye Ying admitted straightforwardly: "Zuo Huai refuses to tell me—but I want to hear you tell me more."
Huang Xize looked back into her eyes, an indistinct look flashed in his black eyes, and he sighed after a while: "Forget it. Since he has already said it, there is no point in keeping it from you."
It was time to say this a long time ago, Ye Ying slandered, but her face remained calm, listening to Huang Xize seriously.
"That's right, the evil spirit in that haunted house is the 魙. It is transformed from the tyrannical anger of the human heart, devours the living beings, and drives them away."
"It's not the first time I've fought against it."
This is not unexpected by Ye Ying.
In fact, she later recalled that when Huang Xize possessed her in the middle of the night when she first moved to 2202, the phrase "I really thought I couldn't find it" was enough to reveal the information.
Obviously, this "魙" was, or is still his prey.
She frowned: "You've been hunting it? Why? Why didn't you kill it before?"
Huang Xize glanced at her, but didn't speak. Zuo Huai entered the ward at this time, and replied after hearing the words: "It's not that it couldn't be eliminated, but..."
"If you kill it, the souls of the people it killed and enslaved will also be wiped out."
Maybe it was because of Ye Ying's sentence "I want to hear you tell me more", Huang Xize finally said: "Those people are innocent."
Ye Ying: "?"
Shocked my whole family for a hundred years: "No, wait a minute... you mean, because killing the 魙 will make the souls of the dead die with it, so let it devour the souls of the living?"
What kind of logic is this?
"No, no, after he was defeated two hundred years ago, he has been sealed by the sixth master."
Zuo Huai hurriedly waved his hands to rectify Huang Xize's name: "It was sealed in my hometown - Zuojia Village, and Liu Ye has been looking for a way to completely rescue the devoured soul since then."
It turns out that this is what Thirty Thousand Lives said, Huang Xize's "obsession"
"Then why is it still making trouble outside?"
Ye Ying looked at Zuo Huai puzzledly: "It escaped?"
Zuo Huai seemed to be choked suddenly, and he said after a while: "Because...someone accidentally released it."
Ye Ying looked shocked: "Who? This ancestral superstition in your Zuojia Village... Cough, the supernatural family, and this kind of pig teammate?"
These words made Zuo Huai even more dumb. He stretched out his hand to Ye Ying and spread out his palm.
His voice was very soft: "It was an ignorant child who accidentally broke the seal and caused the escape."
"...It's also my brother, Zuo Yu."
Ye Ying looked at his palm subconsciously, and met a two-centimeter-high yellow dog.
Ye Ying: "..."
