Chapter 1536: Pull the curtain

Views:

The scene before him looked so strange in Zhou Ze's eyes.

The Lord of the Palace and the Bodhisattva were sitting on a bed playing chess.

Di Ting was serving tea and water beside.

It seems like,

Everything has returned to a thousand years ago.

Of course, I was more confused and at a loss. I had been going around in circles for so long, the two sides were fighting each other, and I was struck by lightning and was unconscious for several days.

ending,

Is that the case

Lao Dao's chess skills are actually quite good. After all, the entertainment industry and entertainment conditions in the early years were not as developed as they are now. At that time, setting up a chess stall, playing chariots against chariots, cannons against cannons, and sitting down to play a few moves was really enjoyable.

The old Taoist has traveled all over the country for most of his life and has seen many tricks in the underworld and scams to defraud people of money, so naturally his eyesight is not bad.

The masked young man was very quiet when playing chess. To be exact, he has always been a very quiet person, so quiet that sometimes the old Taoist would not hear a word he said even after playing chess for most of the day.

But it is this kind of quietness that the old Taoist likes most.

People are quiet, but the fighting on the chessboard is exciting.

Although I always lose, and have not won a single game in dozens of games so far, I can fight to my heart's content in every game, and I enjoy losing too.

The lame man placed the fruit plate on the chairs beside the two men, and then sat down on the bed on the other side.

Cross your legs on the bed,

The lame leg was swinging under the bed.

Although Zhou Ze now has a feeling that Bodhisattva and the others have discovered everything, as long as there is no outright war, Boss Zhou will not choose to give up on himself.

Even ants try to survive, let alone salted fish

Zhou Ze walked silently to the bedside and sat down next to the lame man.

The lame man turned his head and looked at Zhou Ze.

Zhou Ze also turned his head to look at the lame man.

immediately,

Both sides fell silent.

There is music playing on Laodao's phone, mostly old songs. In Laodao's words, when online music was just beginning to become popular, the songs at that time were really good.

Unlike now, the songs at the top of the so-called major music charts are nothing but random stuff, as if anyone can sing, dance and rap there.

The phone contains:

"Ah~~Ah~~It takes ten years to be able to ride the same boat together, and a hundred years to be able to sleep on the same pillow together..."

Don't say,

Boss Zhou, who was sitting next to him, looked at the scene in front of him.

I really think this song is so appropriate for the occasion.

The battle in the middle game was fierce, with both sides exchanging pieces very quickly.

This is also the fighting style that the old guard has figured out, proceeding steadily and slowly. This is a common method used by high-level players against low-level players, relying on layout experience and deductive ability to avoid accidents and win victories as much as possible.

But after the initial confrontation, the old Taoist knew that this unlucky and quiet guy in front of him,

It's just like a human alpha dog.

There is really no hope in playing tricks on him, you can only strangle yourself in boredom.

Therefore, the old Taoist now starts to make big moves as soon as the game reaches the middle stage, hoping that a miracle will happen with great force.

Not surprisingly,

The Taoist priest lost.

But at least there aren't many pieces left on the board for either side, so it doesn't look like they're being completely defeated.

The game of chess is over.

The old Taoist got out of bed and stretched.

The masked young man picked up an apple and ate it in small bites.

"Lu Fangweng, it's time for the checkup."

The young nurse walked to the door and started urging.

"Okay, let's go down in the afternoon."

The old Taoist made a helpless gesture.

The masked youth nodded.

Get out of bed,

He walked in front.

The lame man followed behind.

The two of them left the ward.

"Boss, I'm going to get a check-up." The old Taoist said to Zhou Ze.

"Don't worry, wait a moment, what's going on with them?"

"What's going on?" The old Taoist was a little confused.

Zhou Ze closed his eyes, his head ached, and waved his hands, saying:

"Go get checked."

"Okay, boss."

The Taoist priest went out.

Zhou Ze leaned on the pillow at the head of the bed.

Place one hand on your forehead and one hand on your chest.

Maybe it was "recovering from a serious illness" or "the sequelae of being struck by lightning".

Although the person is awake, he is too weak both physically and mentally.

Lying down, lying down,

When I was feeling a little confused,

The Taoist priest came back after finishing the examination.

It's just like a war, the uninjured take care of the injured, and the slightly injured take care of the seriously injured.

The old Taoist heated a cup of milk for his boss and placed it on the bedside table.

Zhou Ze also opened his eyes at this moment.

Yawned.

"Did they play with you, or did you play with them?"

"Well, when I went to buy rice and came back, I met that lame man in the elevator, and I chatted with him for a few words;

After that, I went back to our ward and returned some nutritional supplements that they had left behind and forgot to take away.

It was pitiful to see a young man who was burned by fire. It happened that there was a chessboard in their ward that a patient who had just been discharged forgot to take away, so I played chess with him. "

“Ahem…”

Zhou Ze started coughing.

"Boss, do you want to call a doctor?"

"No."

Zhou Ze picked up the hot milk, looked at it, and said helplessly:

"Is there any purified water?"

"Yes, boss."

He took the purified water from the Taoist priest and took a sip.

The old Taoist beside him couldn't wait to ask:

"Boss, what's wrong? Is there something wrong with them?"

Zhou Ze deliberately didn't say it before. Now seeing Zhou Ze's reaction, if the old Taoist still hasn't noticed that there is something wrong with them, then these years of being influenced by two bosses would be wasted.

"No problem, I just think they are too withdrawn. I don't like them very much."

“Oh, I see.”

It’s not that Zhou Ze doesn’t want to tell the Taoist the truth, because once he tells him the truth, you have to tell him that you are the Lord of the Mansion, not him. Your father is the Lord of the Mansion, your grandfather is the Lord of the Mansion, your grandfather’s father is also the Lord of the Mansion, and your whole family is the Lord of the Mansion.

First, Zhou Ze still felt that the old Taoist priest made him feel more comfortable.

The second reason is that if the truth is to be told to the Taoist priest, it should be the Taoist priest himself who should tell him.

"Where are the cigarettes?" Zhou Ze asked.

“Oh, here.”

The Taoist priest helped Zhou Ze light a cigarette.

Zhou Ze shook his head.

Just hold the cigarette in your mouth.

Bodhisattva has come to this ward to play chess. Zhou Ze doesn't know whether they have discovered it or not, whether they have discovered it and are still waiting for the final confirmation, or for some other reason.

at the moment,

We can only take one step at a time and see what happens.

This is really going to end up losing the game.

Thinking that I was struck by lightning for nothing,

I really can't accept it.

"Boss, are you going to play chess with them again?"

The old Taoist asked cautiously.

Zhou Ze looked at the Taoist priest, who was getting a little nervous, and then he nodded and said:

"Go if you want to."

Since you are prepared to feed the tiger yourself, your leader cannot stop you.

The boss agreed, and the Taoist priest left the ward carrying the chessboard.

Zhou Ze took out the cigarette that had been chewed so hard in his mouth and squeezed it in his palm.

No matter what,

Since I just woke up,

Take a breath, then.

At least,

I need to get my body in better shape first.

“Hiss…”

Suddenly,

Zhou Ze felt a sharp pain in his chest.

At the same time, my lungs felt like they were being pressed down by a huge rock.

I can only breathe out but not breathe in.

This symptom came on so suddenly.

"Cardiac arrest..."

These four words immediately appeared in my mind.

Zhou Ze does not have a heart disease. To be precise, Xu Le's body also does not have a heart disease. Of course, except for the face which remains roughly the same as before, Xu Le's body has been transformed beyond recognition by Boss Zhou.

So,

It should be my current state as an "ordinary person".

I don't know if it was caused by the car accident a few days ago or the lightning that struck me that day.

In conclusion,

This "ordinary person's" body had ordinary people's reactions.

It's broken.

Something went wrong!

If it wasn't so hard to breathe now,

Boss Zhou really wanted to spit out blood.

I was struck by lightning and was unconscious for several days before I woke up.

Coming again

Zhou Ze reached out to touch the bell beside the bed.

Next,

Stunned for a moment,

Because I like cleanliness, I deliberately chose the third empty bed after taking a shower. I did not go back to my "old nest" where I had been unconscious for several days, nor did I sleep on Laodao's bed.

But,

This empty bedside,

There is no button that rings the bell!

grass!

Throughout my life,

first,

Boss Zhou began to feel disgusted with his own cleanliness!

… … …

"Hey, hey, let's play chess, let's play chess."

The old Taoist happily walked into Ward 1102 holding the chessboard.

"Hey, there's a new neighbor. Should we keep our voices down?"

The Taoist priest is still a very civic-minded person. Before, the masked young man was in a solitary ward, so everyone could relax and play chess. But now it is no longer possible.

The lame man was sweeping the floor while dragging his lame leg.

The masked youth shook his head.

road:

"No problem."

The old Taoist then discovered that the new middle-aged male patient was holding a mobile phone and playing Douyin at high volume.

The other person must have something wrong with his leg, and he was lying there with a cast on.

have to,

I just like this kind of uncultured people!

"Come on, come on, kill, kill!"

The old Taoist happily sat down on the masked young man's bed and started to set up the chessboard.

At this time,

The nurse walked to the entrance of the ward and shouted:

"Wang Shucheng from 1102, that's you, right?"

"It's me."

The man who was watching Douyin put down his phone.

"Come on, it's your turn to be examined, come out for a moment."

"good."

The man got out of bed with some difficulty using a cane and followed the nurse out.

… … …

at this time,

A group of people got out of a van in front of the hospital. They were all adult men with fierce looks on their faces.

"Boss, we found out. In Ward 1102, that bastard owed us money and didn't pay us back. He went to his mistress's house to spend the night yesterday. The man suddenly came back, and the bastard jumped out of the window to escape and broke his leg."

"Damn it, it's so hard for me to find him. Listen up guys, it's only natural to pay back debts. Since this guy is playing tricks on us, there's no need for us to be polite!

Come in with me and kill him!"
