After seeing off Zhang Zhe, Qin Liuxi obtained a sum of incense money from Mrs. Zhang to hold a ritual for Zhang Zhe and to light a long-burning lamp.
Qin Liuxi didn't delay; as for Zhang Hua, since she said she wouldn't treat him, she didn't bother with the poisoned sore on his back. Without the resentful energy of a ghost face affecting it, it was merely a sore but festering somewhat absurdly, something any ordinary doctor could treat.
Of course, whether it could be cured or not was another matter, and whether Mrs. Zhang would let him be treated was even more uncertain, but none of these were within Qin Liuxi's consideration.
