Although he asked this question, he was not mentally prepared to receive a direct affirmative answer from Xia Hua.
"But..." Xia Hua shook her head lightly and lifted the hair covering her right eye, "You don't have to worry."
It's hard not to worry now that... everything has been said.
"Sister Xia Hua, have you encountered any difficulties?" Zhou Ye asked, "Although...although I am of no use, I still want to help you...if I can..."
Xia Hua pursed her lips, her eyebrows trembled slightly, and she looked very hesitant.
"You can tell me directly, it doesn't matter," Zhou Ye stretched out his hand and patted the back of Xia Hua's hand, "Now we are grasshoppers on the same rope. Sister Xia Hua, your business is my business."
Xia Hua raised her eyes, her dark eyes looking straight into Zhou Ye's pupils. Xia Hua didn't make any move, but Zhou Ye was so frightened by Xia Hua's eyes that she leaned back.
"You can really help."
Xia Hua's lips almost didn't move, and she just said this sentence hastily.
Zhou Ye stared into Xia Hua's eyes, suddenly regretting what he had just said.
"I...really?" Zhou Ye grinned and forced a smile, "Haha...hahaha...that's great, Sister Xia Hua, how can I help you?"

Luo Jiutian opened the door to the room, and before leaving, he turned around and looked at Lao Luo.
Lao Luo stood by the bed, his eyes locked on his son. Seeing Luo Jiutian looking over, Lao Luo smiled gently and waved to him gently.
"Let's go," Lao Luo's tone became rarer and gentler, "Don't worry about me."
Luo Jiutian pouted, like a three-year-old child having a tantrum.
Seeing Luo Jiutian hesitate, Li Muyuan sighed, stepped forward and hugged Luo Jiutian's shoulders, and said, "Okay, Jiutian, Miaozhen and Brother Zhuge are safe here, let's go."
"I……"
"Jiutian," the Taoist priest said with a slight smile, "nothing will happen to them."
Li Muyuan nodded accordingly.
Although the "they" in the two people's mouths did not refer to the same group of people, the persuasion still worked. Luo Jiutian reluctantly nodded to his father, then no longer hesitated and closed the door with his backhand.
.
When they stood in the door and looked out, they could only see pitch black. When the few people really came to the outside world, the surroundings didn't seem so dark anymore.
Luo Jiutian took a step forward, and then stepped back.
"We have to make a mark on the way out, otherwise what if we can't find the way back?" Luo Jiutian said, calling out his Panlongchi with his right hand, "I'll do it."
Luo Jiutian recited a rune silently. Half a second later, a hair-thin silver thread came out from his fingertips. Luo Jiutian raised his hand and pointed toward the door. One end of the silver thread was connected to the door.
, and the other end stuck to his finger.
"Okay," after doing all this, Luo Jiutian finally felt relieved, "Let's go."
The three of them paid attention to the movements in different directions and walked towards the depths of darkness.
"Hey, look," Li Muyuan pointed forward and said, "There seems to be a door in front."
The brown wooden door was like a stone tablet that had been waiting for a long time, standing quietly in front of it, just waiting for the three people's eyes to fall on it.
Luo Jiutian subconsciously lowered his head and looked at his fingertips. The other end of the silver line was still behind him. It seemed that they were not going in circles. This was indeed a brand new door.
The Taoist priest reached out and touched the surface of the door and rubbed his fingertips several times.
"This door is very old," the Taoist priest said. "There is no sound inside the door. It is very quiet."
The three of them looked at each other.
"Want to go in and take a look?" Li Muyuan asked tentatively.
"Wait a minute, I'll put a hidden thunder to check first and let the hidden thunder see if there are any evil spirits inside. If not, everything will be fine."
Luo Jiutian recited a rune silently again, and gray smoke rose from the Panlong Pond. The smoke lingered around the wooden door, and gracefully squeezed in along the crack in the door.
Luo Jiutian looked completely attentive, and his ears stood up.
Li Muyuan looked at Luo Jiutian's side face with approval and nodded with satisfaction.
Not long after, the gray mist squeezed out from the crack in the door, gathered back to the top of Panlong Pond, and disappeared after a while.
Luo Jiutian breathed a sigh of relief, tilted his head and said, "It's okay, there should be no evil spirits inside."
"What about the living people?" Li Muyuan asked.
"Living people... don't know," Luo Jiutian answered truthfully, "My hidden thunder can only detect evil spirits."
"Since there's nothing wrong, let's go in and take a look now," the Taoist priest grabbed the door handle and said, "You guys get behind me."
"Taoist Master, how can I let you be my shield..."
"Obey," the Taoist Master pulled Luo Jiutian behind him and pushed open the wooden door, "Look behind you and don't be careless."
The moment the wooden door opened, the dazzling white light pierced their eyes like fragments of exploding glass balls. The three of them squinted their eyes and looked forward.
White walls, white window frames...
And everything is messy...
This... looks like an office?
The Taoist priest gradually opened his eyes, walked into the room casually, and looked around with doubts.
"This is an office," Li Muyuan said, looking at the luxurious desk placed in the center of the room. "It's quite grand. It seems that the owner of the office has some status."
The Taoist priest walked towards the filing cabinet at the edge of the room. The door of the cabinet was also open and the documents inside were scattered on the floor. The Taoist priest picked up a document and lowered his head to read it.
"The basement renovation plan of Qiaobu No. 1 Hospital..." The Taoist priest frowned, "This is... the dean's office?"
"Why doesn't the bridge have a first hospital?" Luo Jiutian heard the sound and rushed over. "Why doesn't the bridge have a first hospital?"
"Mu Yuan must have heard of it, right?" The Taoist priest looked at Li Muyuan, who was also a doctor.
"I have heard of it a little bit..." Li Muyuan scratched his head, "It's just...it doesn't have a good reputation."
This remark aroused the interest of the two of them.
"What do you mean?" Luo Jiutian's innocent eyes widened, "Is the medical level poor?"
"The medical level... is pretty fair," Li Muyuan looked around carefully, as if he was wary of someone eavesdropping. "We heard that someone is doing illegal transactions here."
"Illegal transaction?!"
The Taoist priest and Luo Jiutian were stunned.
These words...are not like words that should pop out of a Shuanglin person's mouth.
After all, you yourself have done a lot of things like reselling rare animals and plants, right?
"What are they doing? Isn't it reselling human organs?" Luo Jiutian asked, "Then I have to take away this place..."
"No, no, no, you have misunderstood," Li Muyuan waved his hands hurriedly, "I am referring to another aspect..."
