Chapter 5: Hospital Morgue

Shi Ren noticed that Bai Wuchang was relatively easy to talk to, paused for a moment, and then said: "Esteemed sirs, I have a matter that I do not understand and would like to seek your guidance on"

"Let's go, you only need to take me to the entrance of the morgue, and I'll handle the rest myself." After having a glass of water at the nurse's station, Shi Ren chatted with a few nurses for a while. Noticing that there was still half an hour left, he decided to head to the morgue early. Shi Ren's act of maintaining peace and order earned him praise from several nurses, who commended his bravery, calling him a real man and the kind of man that girls most want to marry

When Shi Ren pushed open the door and stepped out of the morgue, those who had guarded the entire corridor were outside the door

What sound? It startled Shi Ren, only to realize that it was himself who accidentally made the noise while backing up and bumping into the hospital bed where the corpse was lying, creating a sound as it scraped against the floor

Hehe, who said we are the Black and White Impermanence? Have we ever acknowledged ourselves as the esteemed Black and White Impermanence? What kind of status and identity do the two esteemed beings hold? How could they casually enter the mortal realm to carry out such trivial matters? We are the law enforcement team of the underworld, under the jurisdiction of the two esteemed beings.

bump

Seeing that Shi Ren was about to die at Wang Hao's hands, Li Shumei rushed towards Wang Hao. It was certain that Shi Ren would meet his demise if he encountered Wang Hao; how could Li Shumei bear to witness such an outcome

A good job is not easy to come by, especially in nursing, which does not rely solely on youth, and one can advance with the deepening of their qualifications

"Li Shumei, your lifespan has come to an end; why do you not accompany me to the underworld to report in and strive for an early reincarnation?" This is the words of the Black Wuchang.

When Shi Ren saw the reflection of the person, he was not afraid, but rather surprised. "Are you Sister Li Shumei?"

Once again, a gust of wind swept over Shi Ren's nape, and he turned around like lightning, yet saw nothing. However, he had clearly felt that something had happened just moments ago. Someone had touched Shi Ren from behind.

Although Shi Ren was very reluctant to admit his timidity, his physical reactions undoubtedly betrayed him. The inner turmoil and the astonished expression on his face were unmistakable signs of fear

It seems that this ghost's powers have become quite profound, and even before the arrival of the child at hetushu.com, it has begun to act so recklessly. Through these recent encounters with souls, Shi Ren has gained some superficial knowledge about ghosts.

Li Shumei's words were very simple, and the more straightforward her words were, the more Shi Ren sensed the seriousness of the situation

"Sister Li, you must not! If you lose your spirit, you will not be able to be reborn." Shi Ren was truly anxious now, in a critical moment, but he had no magical powers at all

Ah

Wang Hao stared at Shi Ren and said: "You little brat, when there is a path to heaven, you refuse to take it, yet you barge into hell without invitation. Initially, I only intended to absorb the negative energy from these corpses daily to enhance my own magical power. I had no intention of harming anyone, but your hospital has repeatedly obstructed me, so do not blame me for being ruthless."

Who, who ambushed me

According to Shi Ren, the optimal time for ghostly activities is at three o'clock in the dead of night. It is currently only two o'clock, which means I have arrived an entire hour early, so I can only rest at the service desk for a while

Ka

Although you possess a natural ability to see through the law, with your current capabilities, you are still unable to contend with me. I will kill you first and then speak further

Shi Ren looked at the scene before him, filled with immense excitement! The artifact held by Bai Wuchang emitted a crimson light that was more than ten times thicker than that emitted from Shi Ren's left eye

"Esteemed gentlemen, I request that you give this matter some consideration. As the heir of the Yin-Yang Eye, I assure you that once her wish is fulfilled, Li Shumei will certainly report to the underworld." Shi Ren, witnessing this scene, could not help but plead for Li Shumei.

"Young man, you shouldn't be here. So many people have come to the hospital before, yet they couldn't solve the problem. What are you doing here as a young person? Aren't you just courting death?" Shi Ren leaned closer, and a shadow was cast on the wall not far from the hospital bed. Gradually, this image became clearer.

Shi Ren was contemplating how to respond to this sudden situation, as numerous phantoms were flying around the walls of the room. However, with the ability of his left eye, Shi Ren sensed that these were not the souls of the dead, but rather the spells cast by this malevolent spirit. Just as he was about to speak, he noticed that a corpse on a bed in the upper left corner seemed to move slightly, followed by the word "come," indicating that he was being beckoned to approach.

I am unwilling to accept this, unwilling to accept this; I was just one step away from resurrecting the dead, yet all my efforts have come to naught

"Lord Bai Wuchang, I have just recently acquired the ability of the Yin-Yang Eye, and I am preparing to learn spells. There is still no time for that now." Shi Rendao said

"Wang Hao, we in the underworld have been negligent for a moment, allowing you to thrive in the mortal realm, but we cannot remain careless forever. It is time to collect you now." This was spoken by the White Impermanence, as a mirror appeared in his hand. A beam of red light shone down upon the green-eyed evil spirit Wang Hao, whose malevolent aura began to slowly dissipate.

It is now 2 o'clock; let us go to the nurse's station to take a rest. Song Jia led Shi Ren into the hospital, heading straight for the nurse's station in the inpatient department

The explanation of the White Impermanence suddenly made Shi Ren understand. No wonder there are so many souls of the dead in the human realm; it is not that there are no Yin spirits to collect them, but rather that they are simply overwhelmed. With so many personnel in the law enforcement team, there are still some that slip through the cracks in the human realm. At this time, it is necessary to have practitioners of spells and Taoist priests from the human realm to assist.

Tell the hospital leaders that the haunting incident has been resolved said Shi Ren to the young nurse Song Jia After a night of turmoil Shi Ren had not slept and his eyes were bloodshot what he wanted most now was to go home and collapse onto his bed to have a good dream

Shi Ren had just walked into the morgue, and he had not yet closed the door behind him when it automatically shut. Shi Ren suddenly turned around, but saw nothing; he only felt a cold wind rushing towards him

***

"Hehe, it seems that your memory is quite good, young man. You have only seen me once in the hospital, yet you remember me," Li Shumei admitted with a smile as she responded to Shi Ren's question.

Unbeknownst to him, Wang Hao's finger traced a line in the air, causing Li Shumei's entire soul to arc through the air and fly away. After witnessing Li Shumei being struck by this attack from Wang Hao, Shi Ren noticed that her soul had become significantly more transparent and faint. Shi Ren understood that when the soul became transparent to the point of being insubstantial, it would signify the moment of Li Shumei's soul scattering.

Speak, and what we can tell you, we will certainly inform you, after all, there are many matters in the future that will require your assistance in the mortal realm

Where is the little nurse? Why is Song Jia missing?

Shi Ren took out his phone to illuminate the area, found the power switch of the room, and turned on the light. As the light brightened the entire room, the eerie silence of the morgue settled in. Now, the room was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. With his left eye capable of seeing spirits, Shi Ren walked backward, surveying the surroundings thoroughly, yet he did not discover anything unclean.

Come ... ... come ... ...

This malevolent spirit named Wang Hao spoke about the reasons behind the recent supernatural events occurring in the hospital

As Wang Hao spoke, he simultaneously formed hand seals with both hands, and in an instant, the entire room was filled with a menacing aura, surrounding Shi Ren and Li Shumei.

As Shi Ren was continuously searching for the hiding places of ghosts, the lights in the room suddenly began to flicker on and off. It seemed like a short circuit! However, Shi Ren knew that this was definitely not a short circuit; it must be the work of a ghost.

With Li Shumei's words, Shi Rencai truly understood the power of this evil spirit. Cloaked in black with a menacing aura, and surrounded by a mist of purple energy, it was already a formidable force among evil spirits. However, if its eyes were also tinged with green, it would mean that even an ordinary mage would be unable to subdue it

Shi Ren returned home with a heavy heart, hiding in his bed and unable to sleep despite tossing and turning. He had originally planned to rest at home for a few days, but now, hearing about the supernatural events at the hospital, it seems his desire for rest has been dashed. He could have chosen to ignore it, but given Shi Ren's current abilities, he cannot simply turn a blind eye. However, possessing the ability to see both the living and the dead, it is his responsibility to exorcise demons and capture ghosts; he cannot disregard what he has witnessed.

I know that your left eye is quite unique. When you saw me in the ward last time, I sensed that your eyes were rather special. But do you know that this evil spirit possesses formidable powers? If it could deal with me, it would have done so long ago. This is the hospital where I have worked for over ten years; how could I allow it to disrupt the order of the hospital's operations

Call

Wang Hao, why must you pretend to be so kind to the books? The reason you have kept me here until now is merely to absorb the negative energy from me each day to enhance your own magical power. You, the green-eyed evil spirit, will eventually be discovered by the underworld's deities for your actions, and at that time, you will find it impossible to escape.

Alright, inheritor, I won't say much more to you. You must take care and protect this city well. I do not wish to see Xiangyang in chaos, with order turned upside down. I am also a person of the 21st century; I lived in this city during my lifetime.

When the young nurse spoke these words, she appeared particularly powerless. Becoming a nurse was her aspiration since childhood; if she were to stop being a nurse, then what was the purpose of her hard work in nursing school?

No matter how Nurse Song Jia inquired, what remained for her was always the long silhouette of Shi Ren. The morning sun shone on Shi Ren, casting his entire figure in a very elongated manner

Then neither of you should think about reincarnating; just disappear together from this world

The figure of the evil spirit king, Hao, flickered and lunged directly at Shi Ren

Very well, inheritor of the Yin-Yang Eye, since you have pleaded for mercy, I shall grant you a favor. This magical mirror is given to you, but remember, it may only be used three times, so use it wisely. The day when Li Shumei's wish is fulfilled will be the day her soul returns to the underworld, so you must supervise her closely. Bai Wuchang glanced at Shi Rendao, and his tone softened.

Ah

What are your plans now? What will you do after leaving your job? I feel that it would be best for you not to resign; I believe this matter will pass soon, truly!" After listening to Song Jia's account of the story, Shi Ren finally asked.

After the White Impermanence finished speaking, the two of them disappeared together

As the inheritor of the Yin-Yang Eye, you currently possess no magical powers. You should strive to learn spells and strengthen yourself in order to subdue demons and capture ghosts, thereby maintaining peace in the mortal realm

This point raised by Shi Ren undoubtedly struck a nerve with Song Jia, who is now particularly silent: "To be honest, I really do not want to give up this job, but the incidents at the morgue are something I cannot accept. If I insist on continuing to work, I fear that one day I too might be harmed"

Just as Wang Hao was about to strike with lethal force, two individuals dressed in black and white suits emerged from the shadows. Shi Ren recognized them, as this was the second time he had seen them. However, he found it strange that this time the two figures of black and white had been replaced by different individuals.

What, have you solved it? You really solved it, you aren't just boasting, are you, Shiren? Shiren, why aren't you speaking? What is your attitude? Hey...

"The last time I saw the two Lords of Black and White Impermanence, why has it changed to the two of you this time? Is it possible for Black and White Impermanence to change personnel at any time?" asked Shi Ren in the novel.

It is better to come early to acclimate to the environment of the hospital and the atmosphere of the morgue

Despite Wang Hao's deep reluctance, he could not withstand the pressure of the artifact wielded by Bai Wuchang, and gradually dissipated into the air. Dust returns to dust, earth returns to earth. Since he had always wished for others to be utterly destroyed, let him also be utterly destroyed. The killer is always killed by others!

滋ーー滋ーーー滋 ... ...

"Hahaha, well said, Li Shumei. If it weren't for the fact that we are both spirits, I would have long sent your soul flying. Heaven has a benevolent nature; how could I go against its will?" Just as Shi Ren was preparing to refute Li Shumei's words, an unexpected voice suddenly rang out beside him.

"Shi Ren, you arrived quite early, it's only two o'clock now." At the hospital entrance, the nurse Song Jia greeted Shi Ren.

Heartbeat acceleration

Sister, my left eye has undergone a transformation, allowing me to see things belonging to the underworld. Since heaven has bestowed upon me this ability, how can I possibly retreat

"Two esteemed Yin gods, I was originally prepared to report to the underworld, but I have not yet seen my son. I only wish to see my son one last time; once this wish is fulfilled, I will immediately go to the underworld!" Li Shumei pleaded with the Black and White Impermanence, hoping for an extension of the deadline.

After hearing about Song Jia's situation in the morning, Shi Ren insisted on coming to see the specifics of the mortuary that evening. Originally, Song Jia would never have gone to the mortuary, not even to the entrance nearby. However, unable to resist Shi Ren's repeated requests, she reluctantly agreed. It was only after Shi Ren mentioned that he might be able to resolve the matter that Song Jia consented.
