After watching Liu Butian fall to the ground, except for Sun Pangzi and Yang Yue, the remaining three people all showed a look of astonishment followed by confusion. Originally, after Liu Butian appeared, these people thought there would be a fierce battle, but unexpectedly, this fake fire pot shop boy, Liu Butian, said two ruthless words and then fell to the ground himself.

  Liu Bu fell to the ground and started convulsing, with white foam emerging from his mouth. He looked like a patient suffering from tetanus. Sun Baozi looked at him and smiled, saying: "Is it fun? You think the money for this hot pot is that easy to get? The money has been poisoned. Now the taste isn't good, right? It's okay, you can convulse some more and get used to it."

  After finishing speaking, Aiguo turned his head to look at Sun Baozi, with a puzzled expression and said: "Sun Juzhang, the money was clearly given just now, how did you manipulate it?"

  Sun Baozi squinted his eyes and looked at Aiguo, saying: "Not that I'm saying it, but how hard can it be to take some money from you? Originally, I wanted to compete with you to pay the bill and send the money directly to Liu Bu's hands. However, considering my identity and a small police officer fighting over paying the bill, it doesn't look right no matter how you look at it. So I changed my mind and exchanged some money with you, now you can give him the money and there won't be any problem."

  At this time, Liu Bu, who was lying on the ground and convulsing, spat out foam while struggling to say: "This is wrong, these... things... you clearly ate them, how... could nothing happen?"

  "Lu Ben used hypnosis, Liu Bu really used curve toxin. Is this still some kind of secret?" Yang Diao, sitting next to Sun Bi Zi, scooped out a piece of hairy belly from the hot pot and said while chewing: "Curve toxin originally has a pungent smell, using it in hot pot is truly the most suitable. You clearly know I'll use curve toxin, would I not even have a bit of defense?"

  "Impossible..." Liu Bu's condition seemed to have improved a bit, and he spoke in a coherent manner: "You can't possibly prepare the antidote so quickly..." As he said this, he suddenly reacted to something, lowered his head, and let out a deep sigh, saying: "This is a hospital..."

  Sun Baozi laughed and said, "Right, this is a hospital. Old Yang went out to the bathroom for a while and had all the antidotes ready. But to be honest, the taste of this antidote is not good, it's really not as good as your poison."

  After Sun Pangzi finished speaking, Yang Xiao gave him a glance and said: "Next time I'll only give you the poisonous soup base, don't ask me for an antidote"

  Sun Baozi turned around and exchanged a glance with Yang Xiao, then said with a smile: "Old Yang, I'm not saying this, but don't learn everything from Old Wu. Having one Old Wu is already enough to give people headaches, if you add yourself, it's even more unbearable..."

  Just as Sun Wukong was speaking, Liu Bu's body, which had already begun to decay on the ground, suddenly emitted a faint glow from the corner of his eyes. The air around him began to distort, and just before Liu Bu's body disappeared, Yang Xiang arrived in an instant, kicking Liu Bu's chest with one foot.

  Liu Butian was caught off guard and took a solid kick, his body arched in pain like a large shrimp. After Liu Butian let out a muffled groan, the distorted air returned to normal again. Yang Xiao lifted him up with one hand, then bit open another finger on his other hand, smearing the blood from the tip of his finger onto Liu Butian's forehead. A moment later, this smear of fresh blood actually seeped into Liu Butian's skin. Only after seeing the blood fully absorbed into his skin did Yang Xiao put Liu Butian down.

  After falling to the ground again, Liu Butian seemed to have suffered immense pain, and cold sweat instantly seeped out of his pores. His entire body was violently trembling, and it wasn't until after a while that he slowly recovered. However, he had already lost all strength and could only lie on the ground, panting heavily.

  Sun Baozi didn't know what had happened, he looked at Yang Xiao who was already back in his seat and said: "Old Yang, what did you do to Liu Bu? You smeared a face of blood on him and he won't move. Not that I'm saying, but what's in this blood?"

  Yang Xiao stretched out his chopsticks, rummaging through the hot pot while saying: "Just now I sealed off his escape method, he won't be able to use it for three days. However, my technique was a bit overbearing, Liu Bu's body can't help but suffer some damage."

  "It's only been three days!" Sun Baozi looked at the almost dry broth in the hot pot and continued, "Don't you have a direct way to disable his technique? You've sealed him for three days, what will you do after three days?"

  Yang Xiang took a good goose intestine, put it in his mouth "gulps" and bit it, eating while saying: "Three days later? I'll give him another refill"

  Yang said, after finishing, Sun Baozi smiled slightly, but then he thought of a life-and-death matter: "Old Yang, you said that red-haired one, really won't come out to replace Liu Bu's wound? Not me saying it, if you're not confident, say so early. Now that Liu Bu has been caught, ask him clearly about the people he tied up, how are they doing now? If those people haven't died yet, rescue them and this matter is settled. If those people have bad luck and Liu Bu was shot dead, this matter is also settled. Don't bring that red-haired one over, without your family's Old Wu, it would be easy to turn the tables in a minute."

  "How could it be so easy to turn the tables?" Yang Xiao said this with a hint of guilt, as he had also been having a rough time lately. Several cooked ducks had flown away, but judging from the situation, it shouldn't happen again this time. Yang Xiao glanced at Liu Butian and continued: "A part of that person's soul was crushed by Director Wu, and to repair that part of his soul, it would take at least a year or two, I'm afraid. He is now hiding in some mountain cave to recover his soul, how could he have so much free time to deal with Liu Butian?"

  After Yang Xiao's words, Sun Baozi still walked to Liu Bu's side with a half-believing and half-doubting attitude. Squatting on the ground facing him, he said: "Old Liu, it's not that I'm saying you're wrong, but stealing corpses is one thing, why did you also kidnap people? However, it's not too late now, hand over those few people and try to show a good attitude. Later, I'll plead for leniency on your behalf, do you know the Xiaobei Prison? You can get out after staying in there for a few years. Alright, speak up now, where did you hide those few people?"

  After Sun Baozi finished speaking, Liu Bu let out a long sigh and looked at him saying: "Alright, I've already said this much. Those people are hiding in the underground bunker of the General's mansion. But let me tell you upfront, I've cast a curse on that place, so be careful when you leave. If one of you isn't careful and loses your life inside, don't blame it on me."

  "Is it the General's Mansion?" Sun Baozi repeated, then said to Ai Guo: "Big fruit, prepare a slightly larger vehicle that can seat all of us. We're going to the General's Mansion now. It would be best if you could arrange for a business car. Just mention it to Director Xie and have his people go to the General's Mansion ahead of time to make arrangements."

  After finishing, he let Lao Mo and Wang Xiao Ran lift Liu Bu up, extinguish the fire pot, and then go out of the conference room with Yang Yue, walking towards the parking lot outside the hospital.

  The location of the General's Mansion was very remote, and it took almost forty minutes for Aiko's car to stop in a pile of weeds. She pointed at a dark villa in front of her and said: "That is the General's Mansion, but it has been deserted for years. The water and electricity inside have all been cut off. There have been rumors of ghosts here for many years, and the reinforcements haven't arrived yet, so shouldn't we wait until dawn to go in?"

  When Ai Guo said this, her tone was slightly trembling, it seemed that the local ghost stories about this general's mansion had already taken root in people's hearts. Sun Baozi smiled at her and said: "Daguozhu, we are all atheists, even if there is really something inside, just pretend you didn't see it. Haunting is like a spring, you fear it, it will haunt you, you don't fear it, it will be afraid of you."

  Although that's what was said, Sun Baozi didn't get off first in the end. He turned his head and smiled at Yang Xiao, saying: "Old Yang, it's almost time to get off, we'll cover for you"

  Yang Xiao helplessly shook his head, then opened the car door and got out first, pulling Liu Benzheng down with him. After getting out of the car, while others had not yet gotten out, Liu Benzheng said in a low voice to Yang Xiao: "Yang Xiao, when Lin Huo was chasing you that year, I blocked him for you once. Although it was an unintentional move at the time, it's still a fact that I saved you that day. This time, spare me and there will be a day when I repay you."

  Yang Xiao looked at him and smiled, saying: "Thank you... thanks for that time, now let's continue"

  When he saw Yang Xiao, Liu Butian didn't mention their past relationship and humbly lowered his head without saying another word. However, for some reason, Sun Baozi felt that Liu Butian was now afraid of something when he saw him like this. From the meaning of his words, it seemed that they had known each other before with Yang Xiao, so it wasn't that he was afraid of Yang Xiao. If not Yang Xiao, then who would he be afraid of?

  As soon as Sun Baozi and the others got off the car, they saw a dozen or so police cars coming up behind them. These police cars drove all the way to Sun Baozi's side before stopping, and the police officers inside got out of the car one after another, with the first one being none other than Director Xie of the local Public Security Bureau.

  After hearing Ai Guo's report on the phone, Director Xie let out a sigh of relief. The rumors about the morgue at Huanhu Hospital being haunted had already spread, and even the local mayor had personally called to ask about it. Although this case was solved by the leaders of the ministry, it could be considered as having an explanation now, and he didn't have to listen to the mayor's sarcastic remarks: "Old Xie, I'm a bit sick, do you think I dare go to the hospital? Which hospital? The one that's haunted!"
