"Maybe it's because there's too much moisture in the body. I'll boil some medicine for you later and you'll feel better after you take it."
"Thank you then." Da Wa blinked and tried to look energetic. "I still have the last ten lanterns. After hanging them up, I will go back and rest for a while."
He smiled at me and slowly walked away.
After work, I returned home and, regardless of my aching body, I cooked a bowl of dehumidifying tea for my eldest child.
Put it in the thermos pot, and I happily went to Dawa's house.
After banging on the door for a long time, he slowly got up and opened the door for me, but he still stood firmly at the door.
"I made you some dehumidification tea. Take a few sips and your body will warm up a little."
The big baby looked at the thermos bottle in my hand, hesitated for a moment, turned sideways and gave up his seat, letting me in.
I walked out of the house, and the fragrance was even worse. When I smelled it carefully, the fragrance became extraordinarily ambiguous. Every trace of it stirred my heart, and my body felt inexplicably hot.
"Big boy, what kind of incense do you use in your house? It smells so good."
Da Wa, who was pouring the medicine into the bowl, shook his hand slightly, and a lot of the medicine spilled out instantly.
He quickly got a rag and wiped it nonchalantly while saying calmly: "They are all men. What kind of perfume are they using? It must be the rouge scent used by Erba's girlfriend. She just left."
I see.
Da Wa drank the dampness-removing tea in one gulp. In order to increase its efficacy, I added a lot of coptis in the medicine. It tastes so bitter that it can make people collapse on the spot.
But he drank it all in one gulp like a normal person, and the expression on his face didn't even change.
"I'm done. Thanks for the medicine, I feel better."
I roughly washed the thermos pot and handed it to me.
The eldest child looked straight at me without saying a word, just writing the words "You can leave" on her forehead.
"Okay, you have a good rest and I won't disturb you anymore. If you need anything, you can come to my house and see me. I will send you medicine tomorrow."
"No need, I should be fine if I sleep for a few more days."
He interrupted me, his resistance was very obvious, so I could only curl my lips and leave their house without saying anything.
I have always believed in one sentence: When things go wrong, there will always be monsters.
Sure enough, after two days, Da Wa never showed up at the construction site.
Uncle Li was really weird. That night he kicked open the door of Dawa's house and broke in with a few people.
I saw the eldest baby and the second baby lying on the same bed. They both looked like they were asleep, with smiles on their faces, but no matter how they called, there was no reaction from either of them.
They were sent to my house first. After a brief diagnosis and treatment, I confirmed that both of them were missing souls, and then quickly took them to Aunt Mei's house.
Aunt Mei checked their situation, placed the eggs on the rice, clasped her hands together, the expression on her face was extremely serious, and she didn't know what she was mumbling in her mouth.
Immediately afterwards, the egg emitted a faint white mist. Only when the white mist disappeared did Aunt Mei pick up the egg and began to peel it slowly.
The inside of the egg is already cooked, and parts of the white egg white have begun to turn black, forming a strange picture.
"What do you mean, Amei?"
"It's very bad. Three souls and seven souls are missing. At least one soul is missing, and the eggs show that their souls are no longer in the mortal world."
Aunt Mei was very old and wore glasses. She squinted her eyes and looked at the eggs carefully.
To me, there are just black lines all over the egg, and nothing else is visible.
Uncle Li's face was a little solemn: "Then what are we going to do? These two brothers are still so young. Aunt Mei, let's help if we can."
"wait."
He took out another egg. Just like before, the egg emitted a faint white mist. The mist became bigger and bigger, covering the entire egg. The next second, the egg cracked open.
The unsolidified egg whites rushed out of the egg, but were quickly solidified, and finally formed a particularly weird shape.
Aunt Mei sighed and shook her head: "I'm afraid this thing's ethics are better than mine, so I may not be able to help him with this."
Uncle Li was anxious: "Aunt Mei! Aunt Mei!"
But the latter didn't even look back and went straight into the back room.
"Uncle Li, let's do this. Send the baby to my place first, and then I'll think of a solution."
"Okay, that's all. I'll have someone go to their house to pack their luggage later."
I nodded.
Together with Uncle Li, we moved these two brothers to my house.
I called several times during the day, but no one answered.
Maybe he's busy.
After setting them up, I sat on the side and looked at the classics left by my grandfather. There were many treatments for the soul-leaving syndrome.
I followed what the book said and practiced it one by one, but the expressions of the two people on the bed did not change.
Three days passed, and I kept them alive with ginseng water and porridge.
"Ruiwazi, it's not good!"
Uncle Li suddenly came to the door carrying a man on his back. I felt something was wrong, so I quickly stepped forward to lend a hand and helped the man sit in his seat. I found that his body was still tied up.
"It was an hour and I haven't been to the construction site in the past few days. I was a little worried so I went to his house and took a look. Who knew that this guy was sleeping while holding a piece of wood. I went up to wake him up and wanted to hit me. Fortunately, I’m pretty good at it and knocked him out first.”
When I was a child, my physical condition was very similar to that of the older baby and the second baby. I was very weak and had signs of leaving my soul.
I took the incense ash and blew it gently on Xiao Xiao's face. The unconscious man sneezed, and his cloudy eyes were dull and unfocused. But the moment he saw Uncle Li, they suddenly burst into tears.
"Give me my wood! Give me back!"
Even though he was bound by a rope, in his rage he threw Uncle Li to the ground and even bit him with his teeth, which scared me so much that I quickly pulled him away.
"What wood?"
Uncle Li stood up from the ground with some embarrassment: "It's the thing I held in my arms when I was a child. I always felt that it was evil. After a while, I went to show it to Aunt Mei to see what kind of evil thing it was. "
"Okay, then Uncle Li, be careful."
"Give me back the wood! It's mine!"
It was so noisy when I was little that I could only gag his mouth with a sock and drag him to the backyard.
The evil fire attacked his heart, but fortunately, his condition was not as serious as the first child and the second child.
There were three patients in the yard, and I had no time to take care of the construction outside. Fortunately, the person in charge, Uncle Li, also said that people were important and the company would find someone else to help.
At night, I finally managed to get myself to sleep. Just as I was about to wash up and go to bed, the ringtone of my cell phone broke the tranquility of the night.
