054 Standing still

The departure of Zhao Jiyou and I were confused and puzzled.

I don’t know why since I came to this little Qi Yun Temple, I can always feel uncomfortable everywhere, just like... it seems like I am being monitored by others all the time.

"Cough cough." Jiang Bing on the bed coughed again. I sat next to her with heartache and slowly helped Jiang Bing up.

Jiang Bing, who was coughing severely, suddenly grabbed my hand and leaned forward slightly to spit out a mouthful of black blood on the ground outside the bed.

Zhao Jiyou and I looked at each other, and Zhao Jiyou breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It should be fine, I will wake up soon."

Before Zhao Jiyou's words could fall, Jiang Bing opened her eyes slowly. After being unconscious for so long, her face was as pale as paper, and her lips were not rosy at all. She looked particularly haggard.

I grabbed Jiang Bing's hand and asked her softly: "How is it? Do you feel better?"

Jiang Bing probably didn't have the strength to speak, so he grabbed my hand and leaned against my chest and nodded quietly. Only at this time would Jiang Bing put down his pride and be willing to be a woman.

"Where are we now?" Big eyes looked around and Jiang Bing asked in a soft voice.

I smiled and covered the quilt on Jiang Bing's body and replied, "Master Youzi, thanks to Master Youzi to save you, otherwise I would really not see you."

Jiang Bing smiled at me reluctantly, then looked back at Zhao Jiyou, and a smile flashed across his lips and said softly: "Thank you to your master for me."

"This is thanks to Jingzheng. If it weren't for him, my master, wouldn't have been..." Zhao Jiyou had no idea. He always had no brains when he spoke. This time he was still like this. He blurted out without thinking, but the words behind him were stopped by me with my eyes.

Jiang Bing looked at me in confusion, and I shook my head gently at her to indicate that it was okay.

"You have been in a coma for two days, so I'll cook some white porridge for you." Zhao Jiyou knew that he had said the wrong thing, scratched his head and smiled silly.

After Zhao Jiyou left, Jiang Bing suddenly sat up and looked at me coldly: "Did you hide something from me?"

"No." I shook my head firmly: "What can I hide from you? Don't think too much, it's okay."

"Then you look into my eyes." Jiang Bing stared at me tightly.

I stared at Jiang Bing's eyes without any timidity. Jiang Bing's eyes were very bright, like a pool of clear spring water.

Although I was guilty, when I looked at each other, I still looked at Jiang Bing with all kinds of affirmation.

After five seconds, Jiang Bing withdrew his gaze and couldn't help but blink. I smiled and shook my head at Jiang Bing and told her that there was really nothing to hide from her. Perhaps because I didn't get any answer from my eyes, Jiang Bing nodded quietly.

Jiang Bing asked me what happened in the past few days when she was in a coma. I told her everything truthfully, but I naturally concealed the promised things.

When I heard that Zi Yi was staying in the police station alone, Jiang Bing was a little worried and wanted to go back now, but I held it down.

"You are still very weak now, so it's not too late for a sleep to sleep tomorrow." I looked at Jiang Bing with gentle care.

Jiang Bing couldn't get around me and had to hold on, so he had to nod his head quietly.

Zhao Jiyou does not only like Taoist skills, at least his cooking skills cannot be underestimated. It is not easy for him to make a bowl of ordinary millet porridge sweet.

Jiang Bing has not eaten anything for the past two days of unconsciousness, and the rice cooked by Zhao Jiyou is indeed good. He drank two bowls of rice porridge and two steamed buns in a row before putting down his chopsticks and saying that he could not eat anything.

Jiang Bing was still weak, and after dinner he went back to his room to rest. Zhao Jiyou picked up a bowl of rice porridge, a steamed bun and a small plate of pickles and said to me: "The master usually lives in simplicity, and doesn't go out often. He likes to be quiet, so I'll send the food to the master."

I nodded quietly and didn't say much. To be honest, I didn't feel that I was very good about telling me, but I couldn't say what the bad things were. Maybe he threatened me to stay here, so I felt a little resentment in my heart.

Zhao Jiyou came back late, so he probably had a chat with his master in the room. After he came back, Zhao Jiyou sat beside me and watched the stars in the sky with me.

"Don't blame my master, my master must have his ideas for doing this..." After a long time of indifference, Zhao Jiyou finally couldn't help but turn his head to look at me.

I chuckled and shook my head and said carelessly: "I am already grateful for your master's ability to save Jiang Bing. Why do you blame him? Although I don't understand why your master insists on letting me stay here, as you said, he may have his ideas. I just treat it as a matter for another thing. He saved Jiang Bing, and I stayed alone for a hundred years."

"I, Zhao Jiyou, don't have many friends, and you are the only one who can be said to be a friend of life and death. I have accompanied you to the underworld, let alone this one for a hundred years? Don't worry, I will accompany you up the mountain to guard alone in fifty days, which can be considered as giving you a companion." Zhao Jiyou looked at me seriously.

I stared at him for a long time, and finally I suddenly laughed: "You have friends besides us."

"I, Zhao Jiyou, have been in the world for many years. How could I have no friends?"

"The introduction will be introduced to me another day. I want to see who wants to be friends with you except for us being so stupid."

...

When Jiang Bing woke up, it was already past nine o'clock the next morning, and his health had almost recovered. The three of us thought about it and prepared to go back to the southwest city now. We had not contacted Ziyi for three days and didn't know what was going on with Ziyi.

It was the first time Jiang Bing saw it all when he said goodbye. In her eyes, she said that she was her savior, and she immediately stood up to thank her.

Daojin glanced over Jiang Bing and looked at me meaningfully and said, "Don't forget your and my agreement."

"Remember it in my heart." I held Jiang Bingman and looked at him carelessly.

Dao Jin nodded gently and staggered his body to make way for us.

Zhao Jiyou walked to the door and finally couldn't help but turn around and look at the words. When he finished speaking, his eyes were full of reluctance: "Master, I'll come back to accompany you when the dust falls."

"The dust fell to the ground..." Dao Jin raised his head and looked at the sky, smiled miserably and waved at Zhao Jiyou, "Let's go."

Zhao Jiyou nodded heavily and turned around and disappeared with us on the path of the intestinal intestinality when he came.

Jiang Bing kept asking me what agreement I had with him on the road. Zhao Jiyou and I were vaguely perfunctorily and Jiang Bing never told a truth.

Fortunately, Jiang Bing was here for the first time and was attracted by the scenery not long after. She looked around and said in amazement: "Yuko, you didn't grow up here, right?"

"It's here." Zhao Jiyou's expression was a little dim, and he was a little helpless when he spoke.

Jiang Bing shook his head slowly and said somewhat strangely: "The mountains and rivers are beautiful, and it would be great if he could live here for the rest of his life."

After hearing Jiang Bing's words, Zhao Jiyou and I couldn't help but pause, looked at each other with a wry smile and said nothing, and followed Jiang Bing and silently went down the mountain.

When we went back, Jiang Bing drove the car, and we were sitting in the car, each with our own thoughts and no one spoke for a while.

"Have you been better in the past two days?" Jiang Bing suddenly asked me while taking advantage of the traffic light.

When Jiang Bing asked this, I suddenly realized that my body was in a safe state these days, and it was completely different from the previous abnormalities.

I shook my head and replied inexplicably: "It's strange to say that I have been in good health these days, and I haven't had any abnormalities at all."

"Yes, I have been following Jingzheng these days." Jiang Bing looked at Zhao Jiyou suspiciously, and Zhao Jiyou quickly answered.

Jiang Bing nodded quietly and continued to drive the car with no intention of speaking.

When we returned to the Southwest City Police Station, it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon. Zhao Jiyou got out of the car and left us and hurriedly ran into the conference room.

Jiang Bing and I smiled bitterly and looked at Zhao Jiyou's back with a speechless smile.

When we walked to the conference room, we wanted to stay outside for a while and create more space for Zhao Jiyou and Ziyi, but as soon as we arrived at the door of the conference room, Zhao Jiyou opened the conference room and looked at us seriously.

"Something happened."

When she saw Zi Yi again, her face looked haggard. The fatigue these days may not have given her much time to rest.

My light suddenly glanced at the whiteboard in the conference room. There were two more names in the deceased column on the whiteboard. When I saw these two names, I guessed what made Zhao Jiyou so panicked.

"Luo Wenxing, Cai Derong." Ziyi glanced at Jiang Bing's face with a relaxed smile, and then went straight to the topic and put the two pieces of information on the table and said to us seriously: "After you left, Qiu Ruide has asked me to find me twice. The first time Qiu Ruide told me that Luo Wenxing would be killed. When I heard the name Luo Wenxing, I asked someone to start an investigation, but the investigation result was that Luo Wenxing had been murdered."

"How did Luo Wenxing die?" I sat at the table with a serious expression and looked at Zi Yi.

Zi Yi hesitated for a moment and said, "Before Luo Wenxing died, a huge rock weighing more than 35 kilograms was tied to his leg, and the cause of death was drowning."

"Is there a piece of Luo Wenxing's body cut off?" Jiang Bing thought for a while and asked.

Zi Yi nodded affirmatively: "Yes! After forensic identification, Luo Wen's galaxy was drowned. There was a cut off part of the right calf, and the length and width were the same as the cut off part of Dou Junming's body!"

"A piece of Luo Wenxing's body was cut off, which proves that Luo Wenxing's body is likely to have a tattoo. If that's the case, what about Luo Wenxing's family?" I pondered for a while and asked.

Zi Yi shook her head and replied to me, "The person who adopted Luo Wenxing is an old man who picked up scatters. Before Luo Wenxing passed away, the old man left due to illness."

"Where is another Cai Derong?" Zhao Jiyou asked thoughtfully.

Zi Yi sighed and said, "Cai Derong's death was also told by Qiu Ruide. Qiu Ruide told me last night that Cai Derong was about to be killed. I immediately sent someone to investigate Cai Derong, but unfortunately it was still one step late in the end."

"After forensic identification, Cai Derong was strangled to death, but the skin on Cai Derong's face was scratched after death."

"The face is scratched?" I frowned and asked, "In addition to Cai Derong's right leg, there should be a piece of cut skin on his face, right?"

Zi Yi nodded quietly: "There is indeed a cut-off piece of skin on Cai Derong's right calf. The length and width have been identified to match Luo Wenxing and Dou Junming."

"The one who adopted Cai Derong was an infertile couple, but Cai Derong's father died in a car accident in his early years. The car accident hit Cai Derong's mother very much. Cai Derong's mother was sent to a mental hospital for treatment because of her unclear consciousness, and she is still in a mental hospital recently."

"In other words... Cai Derong and his mother are still in the mental hospital?" I stood up and asked in surprise.

Ziyi nodded and said, "After Cai Derong was killed, I sent someone to find Cai Derong's mother. I was afraid that something would happen, and I had already taken Cai Derong's mother to the police station and let me stay in Cai Derong's mother for 24 hours. However, Cai Derong's mother was mentally ill and seemed a little irritated because she changed the room and place. She has been using sedatives to control Cai Derong's mother's condition."

"Wait." Jiang Bing's brows slightly clumped and suddenly asked, "You just said that before Cai Derong and Luo Wenxing were adopted..."

"That's right." Zi Yi rubbed her smooth forehead at a loss and sighed: "Cai Derong and Luo Wenxing were both orphans before."

"And... they are all orphans from Wolong Orphanage."
