This doctor is not short of money

Lou Guozhang spoke in a very calm tone, but the sad look on his face quietly became a little more sad after he finished speaking.

This scene was also seen by Du Heng and the others. The first thing they thought of was that Lou Guozhang wanted to escape.

But in a daze, Du Heng saw the indifference quietly flashing through Lou Guozhang's eyes beneath his sad expression.

It was noon, and the sunshine was warm and warm. Although it was already late autumn, the sunshine made people feel more comfortable and even a little lazy.

But Du Heng suddenly shuddered.

I have forgotten what I read in that book. There is a saying: Passionate people are ruthless, and affectionate people are the least ruthless.When I saw it before, he was still young and didn't think much about it. He just thought it was the author's pretentious and petty bourgeoisie overflowing.

But when I thought of these two sentences again today, I suddenly felt that there seemed to be a certain truth in these two sentences.

Du Heng couldn't help but look at Lou Guozhang's eyes again, but what he saw at this time was the deep sadness and pain in Lou Guozhang's eyes, and even a little bit. . .Embarrassing.

I must have read it wrong.

Du Heng and Lao You didn't have a good relationship with Lou Guozhang. They wanted to say something, but they really couldn't open their mouths.

Only Cao Yuanqing frowned and said, "Old Lou, don't mess around. Although the matter has nothing to do with you, Yao...you have to deal with her funeral, right?"

Lou Guozhang suddenly straightened his waist slightly, took a long breath and said with a forced smile, "We can't handle it yet. The preliminary examination of the two of them is food poisoning, but further autopsies are needed to make a final determination.

And Yao. . .My mother-in-law, and that. . .The man’s family members also strongly requested an autopsy, saying that I poisoned him. . .Both of them.Therefore, there is no way to deal with the funeral before the autopsy is completed. "

"Food poisoning?" Du Heng knew a little more about this, so he was the first to answer, "Since it is confirmed that it was food poisoning, is an autopsy necessary?"

Lou Guozhang smiled bitterly, and for some reason his straightened waist collapsed again, "Police...

Forget it, let me start from the beginning.

In fact, it happened at around eight o'clock last night, she. . .Halfway through their meal, the two of them felt some abnormal reactions in their bodies. They wanted to drive to the hospital by themselves, but it was too serious and they had to call the emergency number.

According to the police, when the ambulance arrived, the two people had no vital signs, and then called the police. "

Du Heng and Lao You looked at each other. It was eight o'clock, which was about half an hour after they finished eating.

Lou Guozhang slowly lowered his head, and took two steps forward slowly, allowing himself to stand completely under the sun, "After a night of investigation, no poisoning was found.

However, because the two people died in similar shapes, after ruling out sudden illness, it was finally determined to be food poisoning.

but she. . .The only things the two of them ate at that time were two portions of leek and egg dumplings and one portion of roasted pork belly with green onions, and the only thing they had was the cup of beeswax water I had made for them, which was almost finished.

After inspection, no problems were found among these things. "

Du Heng and the other three followed Lou Guozhang and stood together in the sunniest place.

After hearing Lou Guozhang's brief description, Du Heng said leisurely, "I am suspicious. If it is not poisoning, but also an acute poison attack, this matter cannot be explained.

You just said that your mother-in-law is making trouble. This is definitely not something that can be easily concluded. "

"After you left yesterday, I was bored at home alone, so I went out to play chess with my neighbor.

Because we are also old chess friends, we couldn't make a point when we started playing, and we played until about ten o'clock in the evening. If his daughter hadn't complained that she was sleepy and wanted to go to bed, we probably could have played two more games. "

Lou Guozhang sighed softly and said with a wry smile, "The police have already understood it, and... so the police told me that this matter has nothing to do with me.

But now relatives on both sides are asking for further investigation, and the matter is indeed suspicious, so. . .That's all. "

This incident was so outrageous and helpless that the three onlookers present didn't know what to say.

But after a moment of silence, Cao Yuanqing spoke up, "Old Lou, although the matter has nothing to do with you, but... I still think you should take a good rest."

Lou Guozhang looked at Cao Yuanqing, with a hint of pleading in his sad eyes, "Old Cao, let me go, I... I feel so panicked.

If I don't find something for myself to do, I feel like I'm going to explode. "

Lou Guozhang spoke very softly, but Du Heng and the others could see clearly that when Lou Guozhang said these words, his lips were trembling slightly.

"Old Cao, you know, I am really attentive to her. I will do anything for her. I even..."

Cao Yuanqing quickly reached out and patted Lou Guozhang on the shoulder, then interrupted Lou Guozhang, "Okay, stop talking." Then he turned to Du Heng, "Professor Du, you see that Lao Lou is fine now. , or let him lead the way.

After all, he was familiar with the mountains and had a close relationship with the two old gentlemen, so it was easy for him to talk to them. "

Du Heng pursed his lips, weighed it in his mind and said, "In that case, it's all Dr. Lou's fault.

but. . .Don't be too anxious, let Dr. Lou rest for one more day. "

"No, let's just follow the plan and set off tomorrow." Lou Guozhang grinned reluctantly, "I already contacted Master Li last night.

If he misses tomorrow, Master Li may not know where he is. "

What?

It was hard for Du Heng to answer this, and neither was it for Lao You, so they both looked at Cao Yuanqing.

Cao Yuanqing looked at Lou Guozhang in silence, and after a while, he looked at Du Heng and the two of them, "Professor Du, Director You, please do as Lao Lou said.

he. . .It would be nice to let him do something to divert his attention. "

The matter was settled, and the four returned to the town together.

When we arrived in the town, we passed by the Sichuan Restaurant and saw a police car parked in front of the Sichuan Restaurant. At the same time, there were many people watching the excitement gathered around.

A few people didn't stop, just took a quick glance and left directly.

Cao Yuanqing took Du Heng Laoyou back to his cousin's house, and then went to talk to Lou Guozhang, fearing that he would not be able to think about it.But when I thought about my cousin's house having nothing to eat, and what happened to the Sichuan restaurant, I could only buy a few more buckets of instant noodles for Du Heng and Lao You.

Du Heng didn't care about it and just asked Cao Yuanqing to accompany Lou Guozhang.

My daughter-in-law cheated on her and died with her lover. It was originally something that was unspeakable, but now everyone knows about it.

Moreover, he is still a celebrity in the town, and he will continue to live in the town in the future. If he can't bear it, he is afraid that something will go wrong.

Cao Yuanqing thought so too, so he didn't show any pretense with Du Heng. After leaving his things behind, he hurried to find Lao Lou.

Lao You looked at Cao Yuanqing's leaving figure and sighed leisurely, then walked to the room where he slept, "I'm going to take a nap. It seems that I haven't gotten over the drunkenness last night." Du Heng also sighed and turned to face himself. Walking to the sleeping room, "Okay, I'll go read a book."

One advantage of the countryside is that there are large yards and many houses. Even if Lao You started snoring, it would not affect Du Heng's reading in another room.

At this time, Du Heng was sitting on the sofa, slowly turning the pages of the book in his hand, with a look of surprise or surprise flashing across his face from time to time.

Just after turning the page, Du Heng suddenly stopped for a moment, and the relaxed expression on his face instantly turned into confusion.

Then he quickly lowered his head, turned the page to the previous page, and then read it seriously.

"Boom"

Du Heng suddenly stood up. Because he stood too fast and too hard, his knees collided with the coffee table in front of him.

But he didn't mean to cry out in pain at all. Instead, his eyes were filled with fear.

He just felt cold all over.

Then Du Heng thought of what happened yesterday, and when he talked to Lou Guozhang at noon, he thought he had seen something wrong. Du Heng suddenly felt cold sweat running down his back.

This is not true!
If so, then this person's thoughts are terrible.

This must be a coincidence.

Until night, Du Heng felt that his heart had not stabilized yet.

"Professor Du, get up, it's time to set off."

He was restless last night and didn't fall asleep until very late. Being woken up by someone now, Du Heng still felt a little confused.After rubbing his eyes, Du Heng realized that it was Lou Guozhang who woke him up.

"Dr. Lou, I'm sorry that I fell asleep late last night because I was obsessed with the book you gave me." Du Heng turned over and sat up, glanced around and asked while getting dressed, "Where's Dr. Cao? Lao You is up." without?"

Lou Guozhang stood aside, looking much better than yesterday, "Lao Cao and Director You have already set off early."

Du Heng paused while putting on his clothes, "Let's go? Why?"

Lou Guozhang had already sat down at the spot where Du Heng was reading yesterday. After looking down at the book on the coffee table, he said with a smile, "If you want to go into the mountains, you can't drive a car, so you can only ride a motorcycle.

Lao Cao hasn't been back for many years and he doesn't know the way, so let him take Director You into the mountain first, and I'll take Professor Du to catch up later. "

"Really?" Du Heng watched Lou Guozhang look at the coffee table, his heart suddenly beat a few times, and then he forced a smile and said, "Doctor Lou's disciples are really amazing, it seems that he can cure any disease."

Lou Guozhang looked at the book on the coffee table and laughed, and then suddenly turned into a low hehehe voice, "Have you seen Professor Du?"

Du Heng felt nervous again, turned over and got out of bed. He got goosebumps all over his body from Lou Guozhang's sudden hey, but he still managed to smile and said, "I have read them all. These notes are very interesting."

"Now that you've seen it all, go to hell and die with that bitch."

Lou Guozhang suddenly went crazy. He took out a kitchen knife from somewhere and rushed towards Du Heng who was still sitting on the bed.

What made Du Heng even more powerless and frightened was that Lou Guozhang, who was rushing toward him at this moment, had an extremely distorted face, and his crooked facial features seemed to have turned into a whirlpool, making him unable to move even if he wanted to.

But in his peripheral vision, the gleaming kitchen knife had already reached his face. . .

"Professor Du, Professor Du, hey, wake up, wake up."

Lao You looked at Du Heng who was twitching and was speechless, and pushed Du Heng helplessly.

I don’t know what’s wrong with Du Heng. Why does he always like to twitch when he falls asleep?
It was like this on the plane a few days ago, and it's still the same now when I'm sleeping on the bed, and it feels even worse.

"Ah~~get out of here."

Lao You was about to push again, but Du Heng, who didn't want to fall asleep, opened his eyes suddenly and suddenly pushed him.

This sudden reaction shocked Lao You.

But seeing Du Heng who had already stood up with a frightened expression on his face, Lao You sighed and said, "Professor Du, aren't you having another nightmare?"

Du Heng's eyes quickly turned around, and his rapid breathing slowly returned to calm.

Dreaming.

But, this dream is too real.

Then his eyes caught sight of the notebooks still on the coffee table. While frowning, he also understood that he had overthought yesterday and had the dream just now.

Seeing that Du Heng was silent, Lao You thought that Du Heng had not recovered from the nightmare, so he could only say with a crooked mouth, "Professor Du, please get up. Dr. Cao just called and said that he and Dr. Lou will be here soon."

Du Heng took a deep breath and slowly relaxed his whole body, "Okay, I'll clean up now. I read too late last night."

Lao You didn't say anything, just turned around and went to the room where he slept to pack his things.

Du Heng no longer struggled with his dream, but quickly stood up and packed his things. However, when packing the notebook, he suddenly hesitated.

"Professor Du, it's difficult to walk in the mountains, and you can't drive in by car. I borrowed a motorcycle, and with mine, it's just enough for the four of us."

Lou Guozhang looked very poor, but judging from his condition, he was more energetic than yesterday.

At this time, he was riding a motorcycle and invited Du Heng to join him.

Du Heng was about to leave, but for some reason, when he was halfway there, he suddenly made an inexplicable turn and got directly into the back seat of Cao Yuanqing.

Lou Guozhang was dodged by Du Heng and looked at Du Heng in surprise, but then he laughed, "Professor Du is quite humorous."

Du Heng grinned.

However, the other people didn't pay attention. After they all got into the car, Lou Guozhang led the way, and Cao Yuanqing followed behind.

After a bumpy journey and nearly three hours, they finally arrived at their first destination, the village of Poison King Li Shi.

The name Poison King looks very much like a title in a novel, but the old man we are meeting this time can truly bear the name Poison King.

After putting away their motorcycles, Du Heng and others listened to Lou Guozhang's introduction while slowly walking towards Master Li's home.

Just when he was approaching the door, Lou Guozhang suddenly asked Du Heng, "Professor Du has any objections to me?" (End of Chapter)
