I asked Scrawny Monkey if he had any other symptoms other than being hungry all day and eating raw meat.

Scrawny Monkey said that he did not, "These two days, I took turns guarding him with his wife, and we never left anyone. Other than yelling that he was hungry and wanted to eat raw meat, he has no other problems. Right now, we can only bind them and continue applying sedatives. Only then will we be able to be honest for a while. "

After Scrawny Monkey finished speaking, I pushed Wu Ji's hand and asked him, looking at Li Tianli's current state, did he offend something?

Wu Ji snorted with his eyes closed, agreeing to my words.

It was late afternoon when we arrived at the Third Hospital in the city.

In elementary school, students always say 'You ran away from the three courtyards' when they were mocking others, so I always felt that the third hospital was an almost mysterious existence. This was my first time here in my life, so I was curious and a little nervous.

After entering the hospital, he found that the mental hospital wasn't as scary as it looked on TV. It looked similar to a normal hospital, except that some corridors were equipped with protective doors.

There were doctors and patients walking back and forth in the hospital. Everything seemed normal. I laughed to myself. I really watched too many TV shows and thought too much.

However, the seriously ill patients would still be isolated within a specific area.

We walked to the innermost room of the inpatient building, where the doors of the small rooms were tightly shut. Inside were individual beds, most of them occupied by patients, some in protective suits walking around with their heads down, some standing motionlessly in the doorway, watching us go by. I looked at a few of them and then stopped looking into their eyes.

Because some of those patients give me a very uncomfortable feeling. I pulled at Wu Ji's clothes and asked him in a low voice if those people were truly insane.

Wu Ji did not even look, and only said indifferently: "There are some things that we cannot control."

Even though he didn't say it out loud, I understood the meaning behind his words.

Some of these people were truly mentally ill, but there were also others who were not truly ill, but had other problems.

However, in today's society, the majority of people would think that ghosts and gods were just superstitious and nonsense. Naturally, they would not believe such nonsense, so they could only send their loved ones here to undergo compulsory treatment.

As Wu Ji and I were talking, we arrived outside Li Tianli's ward.

Through the observation window, he saw a tall man, his hands and feet tied to the sickbed, his body writhing in pain, as if trying to break free.

A haggard woman was sitting on a stool beside him. She was wiping away her tears with a tissue.

The Scrawny Monkey knocked on the door and the three of us walked in.

"Sister-in-law, this is what I told you. My master, and this is Nun Qing." As soon as we entered, the Scrawny Monkey introduced us to the woman.

Li Tianli's wife immediately stood up and walked over. When he saw Wu Ji and I, he was startled, then looked at Scrawny Monkey with doubt, then looked at Xiang Wuji. He said with a stiff smile: "You two are … "Great deities."

I almost burst out laughing at the word.

Wu Ji, who was always cold and aloof, said "hello", which was already considered giving face, and then went to see Li Tianli who was on the bed.

I followed Wu Ji and walked forward. I heard Li Tianli's wife ask Scrawny Monkey behind us in a low voice, saying that since Wu Ji and I look so young, would we really be able to cure her?

I don't blame Li Tianli's wife for doubting; after all, Wu Ji and I are face to face here, and the old saying about how we don't have any feathers on our mouths isn't too accurate, and it's probably just and I that we're talking about.

I walked to Wu Ji's side and looked at him from a few steps away from the sickbed. He was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, muttering to himself, "Hungry! Hungry!"

Although his voice wasn't loud, it sounded extremely frightening in this quiet ward, as if he was a hungry ghost who was about to take revenge.

Furthermore, this Li Tianli hasn't had a bath for who knows how long, so the moment I got close to him, I could smell a very obvious stench, and it felt like sh * t was under my blanket. Smelling it caused me to feel nauseous, and I didn't dare to speak up.

"Master, what's wrong with my bro?" Did you offend something? " Scrawny Monkey asked Wu Ji.

Wu Ji only shook his head, but did not say a word.

I endured the stench until I became so disgusted that I couldn't stand it anymore. I threw up and ran to the washroom to vomit.

Wu Ji was anxious, he knocked on the door and asked if I was alright.

I opened the door after throwing up and saw the three of them standing at the entrance, looking at me. I couldn't help but reveal an embarrassed expression as I said, "I was feeling a bit carsick just now, so my stomach isn't too comfortable. I'm sorry."

Scrawny Monkey patted his chest. "You scared me, and I thought you were doing something. If you really cause any problems, my master will definitely be angry at me. "

I looked up at Wu Ji, who was looking at me nervously.

"Perhaps the air in the ward is too stuffy. Let me accompany you to get some fresh air." Wu Ji did not care about the other two, and dragged me out of the ward.

"What happened just now?" Once they were out, Wu Ji asked with a serious expression.

"It's nothing, just …" I hesitated, then pulled him a little farther away.

Wu Ji looked at me confusedly. Seeing that neither Scrawny Monkey nor Li Tianli's daughter-in-law had followed him out, he said, "Actually it's nothing, it's just that Li Tianli probably hadn't bathed for quite a few days, which is why it smelled a little disgusting."

"Smell disgusting?" Wu Ji frowned, as if he was surprised by the answer.

When he saw his expression, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he asked hesitantly, "Don't tell me you didn't smell it?"

"Nope." Wu Ji shook his head.

This also made me feel surprised, although I had previously smelled a smell that no one else could, which was either smelly and smothering or burning incense, but that smell on Li Tianli's body, was obviously the same as the public restroom that hadn't been washed for a long time, it was extremely smelly, so I subconsciously thought that it was because his body was inconvenient, so I didn't properly clean him up.

Putting everything aside, just the smell alone was sufficient to confirm that Li Tianli really had some kind of evil disease.

Wu Ji asked me if I had noticed anything else.

I shook my head: "That's not true, the smell just now was too disgusting, I didn't even dare to go near it. I thought it was because Li Tianli didn't shower, and was afraid that her wife would see through my disgust and be unhappy."

But what made me feel weird was that even Wu Ji didn't notice anything strange.

After interacting with Wu Ji for such a long time, even though I still don't know what kind of secret Wu Ji is, I have never doubted his ability. Normally, he wouldn't need to use his hands to know what kind of things are there, but this time, he actually didn't see anything wrong with it.

After taking a breather outside for a while, we decided to go back and have a good look at what exactly is on Li Tianli's body.

On the way to the ward, I asked the nurse for two masks.

After entering the sickroom, Wu Ji asked the Scrawny Monkey to hold down Li Tianli to prevent him from moving around too much, but I clenched my teeth and walked forward, wanting to touch Li Tianli's forehead.

Wu Ji said that if there was something on Li Tianli's body, the golden flames above his head would be extinguished.

When I walked into Li Tianli, he, who was initially twisting and turning about, suddenly stared fixedly at me. As I neared him, he slowly shifted his gaze.

Furthermore, with the Scrawny Monkey's physique, it's unlikely for him to hold Li Tianli down. I carefully checked if the belt on his hands and feet had not loosened, then bravely walked over.

Wu Ji was standing beside me.

I reached out my hand, trying to ignore Li Tianli's vicious gaze, and placed my hand on his forehead. After touching it, I immediately pulled it back.

"It's cold." I nodded.

Wu Ji asked me to retreat, and to ask Scrawny Monkey if I have a blade.

Li Tianli's wife immediately took out a fruit knife and passed it to Wu Ji.

Wu Ji gestured with the blade in his hand, and from his posture, it looked like he was going to cut his own sword.

But he quickly retracted his hand and called Scrawny Monkey over. Before Scrawny Monkey could understand what was happening, he slashed his finger, causing Scrawny Monkey to feel pain and cold air to come out.

"Master, why didn't you say anything when you cut my hand!"

Wu Ji ignored him. He pinched his finger and squeezed a few drops of blood out, then used her finger to dip it in, and quickly drew a mark on Li Tianli's forehead.

When Wu Ji finished drawing, he suddenly roared out. If not for the belt binding him, he would have bounced up from the bed all of a sudden!
