"My little brother?" Xia Tian curled his lips and said with some displeasure: "I don't have the hobby of recruiting little brothers. There are only two or three of them now. How did this come out of nowhere?"
Zhao Qingqing knew that the younger brothers recognized by Xia Tian were probably Wang Jie who was recruited in Jianghai, Xie Xiaofeng who was recruited in Imperial Capital, and including Bai Xiaolei, there were really not more than three.
"This man said that he met you on his cruise ship some time ago and then joined your banner." Zhao Qingqing explained with a smile: "He is from Tianjin and Hong Kong. His name is Wu Zhengye. Do you have any impression?"
Xia Tian remembered that there was such a person, so he said: "I can't talk about it, I just took his boat when I went to Carnival Island."
"He's been in some trouble recently, and he really can't solve it himself, so I want to ask you for help." Zhao Qingqing introduced the situation casually, but her eyes kept looking at Xia Tian. If he was a little unhappy, she would directly skip this topic.
Xia Tian lazily yawned and said casually: "Anyway, I'm a little bored recently, so let's see what trouble he has."
"He probably won't be able to make it." Zhao Qingqing took out a photo and handed it to Xia Tian: "His trouble is with his body. He basically can't move, and he will probably die after a while."
"What an idiot." Xia Tian glanced at the photo, and after a moment's thought, he knew what this person had done, but his interest became even stronger: "This is quite interesting, you can go and take a look."
After dinner, Zhao Qingqing drove Xia Tian to a rather secretive private villa in Tianjin. It was a very old-fashioned mansion.
"Miss Zhao, Divine Doctor Xia, please come over here. My master and young master have been waiting for a long time." An old man who looked like a housekeeper stood in front of the villa and stepped forward to open the car door for Xia Tian.
Zhao Qingqing nodded and said to the housekeeper, "Thank you."
"This villa looks a bit gloomy." Xia Tian said with a smile, "Aren't you afraid of being haunted at night?"
"Doctor Xia is joking." The old housekeeper laughed dryly and explained: "This is the Wu family's old house. It has a history of more than a hundred years and there has never been any evil happening."
Xia Tian curled his lips: "It will happen in the future."
The old housekeeper was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to answer the question.
"Where is the person, is he inside?" Zhao Qingqing smiled and smoothed things over, stepped forward and hugged Xia Tian's arms and said: "Master, let's go in."
The old housekeeper sweated a lot, called a servant, and asked him to drive the car to the garage, and then trotted to half a step in front of Xia Tian and Zhao Qingqing.
"Master and young master, you are both in the backyard. I will take you there right now." The old housekeeper slowly followed the two of them through the corridor and made several more turns before arriving at the so-called backyard.
This backyard is lush with trees and green grass.
It looks like a small forest park, surrounded by lush greenery, and there seems to be a faint cool air, which makes people get goosebumps involuntarily.
"Master, something seems not quite right here." Zhao Qingqing looked around cautiously, feeling as if someone was peeking in here.
Xia Tian didn't have much reaction, he just said casually: "Girl Qingqing, you don't have to worry about it, it's just that these flowers, plants and trees have undergone some mutations."
The old housekeeper glanced at Xia Tian with a strange expression, and soon led the two of them to a small courtyard: "The master and the young master are both inside, Miss Zhao, Divine Doctor Xia, please!"
"Aren't you going in?" Zhao Qingqing said to the old housekeeper.
"I won't go in." The old housekeeper waved his hand and said with some fear: "If I go in too, then the master and the young master will have no one to take care of them."
Zhao Qingqing did not ask any more questions, and slowly stepped into the small courtyard with Xia Tian.
"Is it Miss Zhao, are you and Divine Doctor Xia here?" A hoarse voice sounded in the room in the small courtyard. It sounded too weak, as if he was about to die: "Please come in, please forgive our father and son for not being able to stay far away."
Welcome."
The door opens automatically.
There was dim candlelight inside, and the view was not very clear.
Zhao Qingqing frowned slightly, feeling that there was something wrong with this scene.
However, Xia Tian didn't hesitate at all and walked in directly.
There were only two beds, a table, three chairs, some daily necessities, and nothing else in the room.
You must know that the Wu family is a well-known family in Jinggang, with a fortune of hundreds of millions, so why do the two father and son live in such a... simple place.
"Both of you, please feel free to do so. Due to physical reasons, I can only let you go to your own devices." A middle-aged man with a decent appearance slowly walked out from the shadows, poured a cup of tea for Xia Tian and Zhao Qingqing each, and then did
A gesture of invitation.
This middle-aged man is Wu Xiangdong, the current head of the Wu family, and a world-famous business tycoon.
At this time, he was too thin and out of shape, and his steps were hobbling. His eyes no longer had the sparkle to point out the world, and he looked more like an old man who was about to die.
Zhao Qingqing looked at this scene and couldn't help but wonder: "Mr. Wu, what's wrong with you? You were so lively last time I saw you."
"Haha, I just wanted to relieve my son's pain, so he took the initiative to get entangled." Wu Xiangdong smiled bitterly and raised his hands, which were covered with countless fine green vines.
After these vines adhered to his arms, they immediately connected with his blood vessels and continuously drew nutrients from his body. This resulted in Wu Xiangdong, who was clearly in his prime, but as thin as firewood and extremely weak.
"Where is your son? How is he?" Zhao Qingqing asked quickly.
"My son is lying on the bed, huh, lying down, wait, I need to replenish some energy." Wu Xiangdong felt a little weak, so he had to take out a tube of medicine from his arms, aim it at his carotid artery, and plunge it in.
When the needle went down, blood spattered everywhere, but the blood splattered was not red, but slightly green.
"Much better." Wu Xiangdong breathed a long sigh of relief, then walked slowly to the bed and lifted the quilt.
The person lying on the bed was none other than Wu Zhengye.
When Xia Tian saw him again, he was also a little surprised.
Not long ago, we met at sea. At that time, Wu Zhengye was still a high-spirited and energetic rich second-generation dude. He was also in good health and had a lot of fun on the cruise ship.
It had only been a few days since I last saw him, and all that was left of him was skin and bones. His whole body was covered with green spots, and each spot was connected to a very thin vine, which stretched out from his body, but finally disappeared.
Underground.
"When was the photo taken?" Xia Tian took out the photo Zhao Qingqing showed him and asked Wu Xiangdong.
The photo shows that Wu Zhengye still had some human form at that time, but he looked quite weak. He was sitting on the bed and looking at the camera with both eyes blankly.
"The day before yesterday." Wu Xiangdong sighed and explained to Xia Tian: "I opened the door and asked the old housekeeper to use a camera to take pictures outside the courtyard. These vines seem to be contagious. Anyone who touches them will be stuck and they can't get rid of them.
No."
Wu Zhengye, who was lying on the bed in the summer, glanced at him. At this time, he had not many people's characteristics, but he was still alive and his heart was still jumping. Although he was so weak that he could hardly hear it.
"I heard that Xia Shenyi, medical skills, can get back to life, please Xia Shenyi to take the shot and save my son and my son." Wu Xiangdong kneeled directly to Xia, and said to cry: "As long as he can cure my son,
I can give the entire Wu family's family membership to Xia Shenyi. "
"I charges my own standards." In the summer, I leaned my lips, "It's not that you give you a lot of money, I will definitely give you it."
"Master, isn't it troublesome in this situation?" Zhao Qingqing asked a little worriedly.
In the summer face, there was a light and light expression, and said lightly: "Their disease is just a small problem, it is nothing more than being invaded by the species, it is not complicated to cure."
"Then ask Xia Shenyi to do it quickly, let me and my son get rid of the sea of bitterness early, please." Wu Xiangdong heard this, and he couldn't help but rang in the summer: "You are our great savior, our father and son, our father and son
It can be used as a cow for you. "
"Don't worry, I will wake him up first, ask clearly, what's going on, and let's talk about it." In the summer, he waved his hand, and then a silver needle appeared between his fingers, slowly piercing Wu Zhengye's body.
Those green vines seemed to have life, as if they were out of danger, and immediately moved on Wu Zhengye's body.
"Uh, they are the acupuncture points on Wu Zhengye?" Zhao Qingqing widened his eyes, and he couldn't believe what he saw.
"It's a idiot." In the summer, he said disdainfully: "I put on the needle, I don't have to look at the acupuncture point for a long time.
In the summer, the green vines that react excitedly, tie the silver needle towards Wu Zhengye's chest.
When the green vines saw this move, they did not work, and suddenly they all concentrated, tightly entangled the silver needles in summer, and even wanted to break the summer arm.
"Do you want to die, right?" In the summer, I sighed softly, transported the ice and fire aura, and passed through the silver needle directly into Wu Zhengye's body.
"Oh! 咻! Well!"
I saw those green vines seeing ghosts, and immediately twisted sharply, desperately trying to get rid of Wu Zhengye's body.
Unfortunately, it's late.
The ice and fire aura instantly frozen these green vines, and then burned into a pile of ashes.
Wrap around the bed, and the roots around the room also end up, drill directly into the ground, disappear.
The original lush garden, the vegetation was less than half.
The green vines entangled with Wu Xiangdong also evacuated instantly, picked into the land.
"ah!"
Wu Zhengye screamed in pain, and finally woke up.
"Son, are you awake?" Wu Xiangdong was ecstatic and rushed to the bed immediately, crying excitedly.
After Wu Zhengye opened his eyes, the first sentence asked: "Dad, what about her?"
