”I haven't recovered yet, so I might as well take a good rest. After the doctor gets to work, I'll go ask your attending physician how you're doing. If you have nothing else to say, you should leave the hospital right now, otherwise that guy will come looking for you sooner or later!”

Helplessly smiling bitterly, ever since I met this cunning and difficult to deal with evil ghost, I even felt that other than myself, the only other person on this street could be that evil ghost.

”I'm fine now. Why don't we escape?” After Bai Hua heard what I said, she immediately came over and laughed.

I hastily told her to stop. Even though I have heard that cultivators usually have good physical qualities, she used up a lot of effort after all, and is also a girl. If something were to happen to her because of this, I would regret it for the rest of my life, so no matter what, I will insist on asking her doctor for help tomorrow before leaving.

Bai Hua was unable to refuse me, and laid on the bed huffily, ignoring me.

I helplessly laughed bitterly, I was also extremely tired, so I simply took out a piece of Talisman Paper that Bai Hua had painted earlier and stuck it on the door and window. Only then could I finally be at ease and sleep.

I don't know how long I slept, but just as I was in a daze, I suddenly heard a scream. It was a scream that sounded like it had received a huge shock, and from the sound, I was startled by the sound, causing me to fall off the sofa.

I stood barefoot on the ground and looked towards the direction of the sound. I found out that the sound came from a room that was very close to us.

I didn't hesitate and hastily went to the door. Only then did I see the Talisman Paper sticking to the door. I suddenly remembered about that evil ghost.

Just as I was about to step out of the door, I retracted my leg. I gradually calmed down. It was only then that I realised that there was something fishy about the scream.

Even though it's the middle of the night, this is still a hospital. If even I could hear such a mournful scream, the nurse on duty should have heard it, but it's been a few minutes and there's still no one around. This made people feel suspicious.

Thinking about this, I hastily went back to my room and ran to the side of the bed to wake Bai Hua up. However, I realized that Bai Hua was currently sleeping soundly, she had been working very hard the past few days, and now she can finally have a good night's sleep.

So I sat down on the sofa again, but this time I couldn't sleep anymore, and I could only close my eyes and wait until daybreak. When the sun had just risen, I started to feel sleepy, but just as I was about to fall asleep, another shrill scream came from the corridor. It was no less loud than the one I heard last night, and it made me feel extremely disgusted.

I jumped off the sofa barefooted, put on my shoes, and impatiently walked to the door. Just as I was about to curse at the door, I saw a young nurse staring at the room next to mine with a terrified expression on her face. There were a lot of potions and gauze at her feet.

Her shout had also alarmed a lot of people. Just as she was about to walk out, her clothes were grabbed.

I turned my head in astonishment, and discovered that Bai Hua was unknowingly, silently standing behind me. She sniffed and said in a low voice: ”There's the smell of blood, something must have happened next door!”

”I also heard a scream in the middle of the night. I thought that the evil ghost was trying to lure me out, so I didn't go. Who knows … Something has really happened! ”

I looked somewhat regretfully at the nurse who had obviously been scared silly. Sighing lightly, I was pulled into the sickroom by Bai Hua.
