Chapter 4: The Female Nurse Faints

  Life in a mental hospital is very regular, at every fixed time period, mentally ill people will do corresponding things.

  At eight o'clock in the evening, under the leadership of the nurses, all mentally ill patients left the activity hall of the rehabilitation center and returned to their respective wards.

  The inpatient department is divided into two major areas, east and west, where male and female patients are accommodated separately. As a result, Tang Xiaosheng and Guo Yixiang had to be temporarily separated.

  The hospital rooms have four beds, two beds and one bed. Among them, the single room is the most expensive, ordinary patients can't afford it, while Tang Xiaosheng's 707 room is a single room. Of course, all the hospitalization expenses are borne by Guo Yang.

  When Tang Xiaosheng returned to room 707, he unexpectedly found that Guo Yang was already waiting in the ward.

  As soon as they met, Guo Yang smiled and welcomed him, saying: "Tang brother, I heard from the nurse that my daughter started eating today and has become more cheerful. It seems she has accepted you."

  Tang Xiaosheng did not expect things to go so smoothly either, and nodded: "She really has taken me for Yang Guo."

  Kuo Yang let out a soft sigh of relief and said with satisfaction: "Now I can rest assured. Tang, you really have some skills. I was just trying it out at first, but I didn't expect it to actually work."

  After finishing, he took out a stack of brand new 100-yuan bills from the pocket of his shirt and handed them over, saying: "Tomorrow I have something to do on a business trip, and I may need to leave for one or two months. During this time, please take care of my daughter. Here is 10,000 yuan, you can collect it first, as an advance payment."

  Tang Xiaosheng was taken aback for a moment, took the money and replied: "Don't worry, I'll do my best!"

  "Thank you. I'm leaving my daughter in your care."

  After chatting for a few more sentences, Guo Yang hurriedly left, as if he had an urgent matter.

  Tang Xiaosheng closed the door and sat alone on the bed, took out a stack of 100-yuan bills and counted them one by one.

  It's really 100 100-yuan bills! After living for 22 years, it's still the first time I've held so much RMB in my hands. Although life in a psychiatric hospital is a bit dull, it's basically worth it. If these were earned by being an extra, at least half a year would be needed to earn this amount.

  Take people's money and help them spend it. Since Guo Yang is so generous, Tang Xiaosheng thinks he should also pay more attention to Guo Yixiang in the future.

  After putting away the money, Tang Xiaosheng sat back on the edge of the bed, rolled up his pant legs and began to massage his injured left leg with both hands.

  After the last filming, Wei Ya was injured and his leg still had some blood stasis and swelling, which has not fully recovered until now. He should have stayed in the hospital for further treatment, but due to the high medical expenses, he had to be discharged early. In his daily life, he would massage his left leg whenever he had time, hoping it would help with the recovery.

  "Big brother!"

  At this time, a tender female voice suddenly came from outside the door. Tang Xiaosheng listened and recognized that the speaker was Guo Yixiang, so he got out of bed and opened the door.

  "Xiang Er, how did you come?"

  According to the regulations of the psychiatric hospital, male and female patients are accommodated in the east and west wards respectively, and no one is allowed to enter privately without permission.

  "Big brother, I have some good news to tell you. I just suddenly remembered a few sentences of the acupuncture point mnemonic, and I'm afraid that if I don't hurry up and tell you, I'll forget it again tomorrow." Guo Xiang said excitedly.

  It seems her delusions of grandeur are quite severe, she actually thinks she can perform acupuncture.

  Tang Xiaosheng had no interest in her acupuncture points, but couldn't find a reason to get rid of her either, so he reluctantly let her into the room and then closed the door again.

  After entering the house, Guo Yixiang began to enthusiastically introduce the acupoint mouth formula she had just thought of, and personally demonstrated it several times in a lifelike manner. Then, she explained: "Big brother, this move I just did is the acupoint technique from 'Lan Hua Fu Xue Shou'. It was taught to me by my mother. Using it to hit the human body's fainting point can make a person instantly lose consciousness."

  "Oh." Tang Xiaosheng casually replied, thinking it was just a mentally ill person speaking nonsense.

  Guo Yixiang said seriously: "Big brother, I'll teach you this trick of pointing acupoints now, I'm afraid I'll forget it again tomorrow."

  Tang Xiaosheng didn't have the heart to learn from a mentally ill person, but he had just received 10,000 yuan from Guo Yang and couldn't bear to ignore Guo Yixiang, so he reluctantly accompanied her.

  He thought he could just muddle through, but unexpectedly, Guo Yixiang was very dissatisfied with his performance. One moment she said his movements were wrong, the next that his strength wasn't enough, as if she really knew martial arts.

  Helpless, he had no choice but to repeat the practice over and over again, practicing for two hours at a time, unknowingly it was already midnight.

  Bang! Bang! Bang!

  At this time, the door suddenly rang. Immediately afterwards, the nurse on duty, Lin Shishi, was heard asking outside the door: "Room 707, is Guo Yixiang with you?"

  Guo Yixiang was startled as soon as she heard it, knowing that her sneaky escape had been discovered by the nurse on duty, and quickly waved her hand at Tang Xiaosheng.

  Tang Xiaosheng understood tacitly and responded from outside the door: "None."

  Lin Shishi seemed skeptical: "You open the door and I'll go take a look."

  If she really let her in, it would definitely be exposed, so Tang Xiaosheng hesitated and didn't open the door. Unexpectedly, a moment later, Lin Shishi actually took out the key to room 707 and prepared to open the door. She was one of the nurses on duty in the inpatient department and had keys to all the rooms.

  Hearing the sound of the door lock turning, Guo Yixiang didn't have time to think much and quickly ran behind the door to hide.

  Ah!

  With a creak, the door opened. Lin Shishi hurriedly walked into the ward, scanning around but didn't notice Guo Yixiang hiding behind the door. Then, she went to the bedside, flipped through the quilt on the bed, and after finding no one, bent down to look under the bed, carefully checking.

  With her way of searching, she would eventually find Guo Yixiang behind the door.

  Tang Xiaosheng couldn't help but feel a little anxious, thinking about how to deal with the situation. At this time, he saw Guo Yixiang suddenly running out from the back door and quickly coming to Lin Shishi's side, her right hand lightly waving, her fingers tapping on Lin Shishi's back "pa pa" twice.

  Pfft!

  A dull thud, Lin Shishi's legs went soft, and she actually collapsed to the ground, fainting.

  It happened suddenly, and Tang Xiaosheng hadn't reacted yet, but he heard Guo Yixiang say excitedly: "Big brother, I hit her acupuncture point!"

  Dark cave?

  Tang Xiaosheng's eyebrows furrowed. He carefully approached Lin Shishi, who was lying on the ground, and gently pushed her body with his hand, softly saying: "Hey, Nurse Lin, wake up!"

  However, after calling out several times, there was no response from the other side.

  Guo Yixiang walked forward, squatted beside him and explained in a childish voice: "Big brother, I used the 'Orchid Flower Sealing Hole Hand' to seal her acupuncture points, she can't wake up."

  Orchid Finger Piercing Hand

  After listening to her explanation, Tang Xiaosheng was suddenly a bit stunned.

  He thought Guo Yixiang's point-hitting kung fu was just nonsense, and didn't take it seriously. Unexpectedly, she actually knocked Lin Shishi unconscious to the ground, could her "Orchid Brushing Hole Hand" be real?

  If Qigong is real, then are the things Guo Yixiang said before also true? Was she really possessed by Guo Xiang's soul?

  "Big brother, the nurse on duty must have found out that I sneaked out. It seems like I need to go back immediately, I'll leave first." At this time, Guo Yixiang waved her small hand and stood up, preparing to leave.

  "Wait!"

  Tang Xiaosheng immediately stopped her and pointed to Lin Shishi on the ground, saying, "You first help her untie the knot before you leave."

  Guo Yixiang bit her tender lip and said in a low voice: "Big brother, I just learned how to press the acupoints, but I don't know how to relieve them yet!"

  "What, can't solve the puzzle?" Tang Xiaosheng's eyes widened in surprise, and after a pause, he asked again, "What to do now?"

  "Don't worry, the acupoint will automatically unlock after three hours. Big brother, I'll be back first." After finishing speaking, she ran out of the room with a flicker of her small legs and disappeared in an instant.

  After Guo Yixiang left, Tang Xiaosheng stared blankly at Lin Shishi for a while. What to do with this unconscious nurse? If he calls someone to take her away now, how will he explain why she fainted if others ask?

  Lin Shishi was knocked unconscious by Gu Yixiang. Judging from the current situation, Gu Yixiang's identity is highly suspicious and it's even possible that she has been possessed by Gu Xiang's spirit. If this is indeed the case, then this matter needs to be handled with caution.

  In case Guo Xiang's crossing matter is leaked out, the consequences are likely to be unpredictable. To be on the safe side, Tang Xiaosheng decided to leave Lin Shishi in the room first and make arrangements after she wakes up.

  On a cold winter's day, it was not quite proper for a woman to be lying on the floor all the time. He therefore wrapped his left arm around Lin Shishi's slender waist and his right arm around her legs, picking her up and gently laying her down on the bed. To prevent her from catching a chill, he also covered her with the quilt.

  There was only one bed in the ward. Lin Shishi slept on the bed, while Tang Xiaosheng could only sit on the edge of the bed, propping his chin with his hand, quietly recalling what had just happened.

  He thought Guo Yixiang was just a mentally ill person, but he never expected that she would actually be able to use qigong.

  Actually, when Tang Xiaosheng came into contact with Guo Yixiang today, he felt that her spirit seemed to be fine, no different from ordinary people. Her words and deeds were indeed similar to those of Guo Xiang in "The Return of the Condor Hero".

  Now looking back and thinking carefully, he couldn't help but start doubting whether Guo Yixiang was really possessed by the spirit of Guo Xiang, although it sounded a bit absurd.

  But why did Guo Xiang cross over?

  This problem was like a spinning top in Tang Xiaosheng's mind, constantly turning and making him more and more confused, until he finally became really dizzy...
