"Reading a book?" I was surprised.
Zhu Xuncai explained: "It's the notebook that Master Dunkong took away last time."
It dawned on me.
There is a problem with the Dunkong Soul. There is a talisman in Xu Fu's Travels that can help him. It's normal for him to look at it instinctively.
It is impossible for a child in his early three years to understand the content of Xu Fu's Travel Notes.
And hearing the news that he was in better health finally made me calmer.
"Let's go, Brother Liao." I took a deep breath and said to Liao Cheng.
When leaving Dixianglu, Liao Cheng and I also paid attention to Jiang Pan.
Jiang Pan's mood was obviously much calmer, but he just kept kneeling, his head lowered and he didn't know what he was mumbling.
I thought to myself that I would at least initially solve some of Dunkong's problems.
If Jiang Pan and Master are allowed to stay for a while, we will arrange the funeral and allow Master to be laid to rest.
As a result, as soon as we left the house, I saw what seemed to be a child standing at the end of the road on the other side.
There was mist on the road, and the moonlight became much hazier.
The child also seemed unable to see clearly.
I frowned.
Suddenly, I heard a clear voice in my ear: "Daddy?" My expression immediately changed in shock.
"Brother Yin Yang, why don't you leave?" Liao Cheng's voice reached my ears, dispelling the crisp childish voice.
A gust of breeze blew on my face, and the coolness made me shiver.
I discovered that Liao Cheng had already walked out three or four meters away. There was indeed mist further away, but there was no sign of anyone...
"Brother Liao, didn't you see?" I said unnaturally.
"What did you see?" Liao Cheng was surprised.
I was stunned and walked to Liao Cheng's side.
Liao Cheng and I are both yin and yang. It stands to reason that what I can see cannot be invisible to him.
Could it be that it was just a hallucination? Or am I too depressed?
"I seem to have seen Dun Kong." My voice was hoarse, but I still said it.
Liao Cheng frowned, thoughtfully.
"Go over and take a look first. I have to see Dunkong itself to know the current situation." Liao Cheng said again.
I stopped wasting no time and walked towards Li's house.
In about a quarter of an hour, we arrived outside Li's house.
I reached out and knocked on the door, and the door was quickly opened from the inside.
The person who opened the door was the paper man Xu.
When he saw me, he was stunned for a moment, with surprise in his eyes.
"Yin Yang?! You're actually back?!" Immediately afterwards, the paper man Xu's eyes fell on Liao Cheng.
I immediately introduced Liao Cheng's identity to the paper man Xu, and simply said that I also brought back Jiang Pan, the master's son.
The paper man Xu nodded. He looked at Liao Cheng with respect and called him Mr. Liao.
Liao Cheng responded with a kind expression and said, "Uncle Xu, please don't be restrained. Yin and Yang and I are friends of life and death, and you are naturally the elder."
The paper man Xu was stunned for a moment, but there was a lot of smile in his eyes.
Liao Cheng's respect for the paper man Xu made my mood towards him change slightly.
Paperman Xu let us into the house. At a glance, I saw that the main room was empty. He Zhi must have gone to bed long ago.
I signaled Liao Cheng to go sit down in the main room first, and then walked towards He Zhi and I's room.
As soon as they reached the door, the door was pushed open, revealing He Zhi's slightly pale face.
She looked extremely haggard, and her hair was a bit disheveled.
She and I just looked at each other.
He Zhi looked at me blankly, and her eyes suddenly filled with tears.
With a creak, she pushed open the door, walked toward me with staggering steps, and threw herself into my arms.
I could tell at a glance that something was wrong...
I calmed down, kept my breathing steady, and whispered that it was okay.
Just holding He Zhi in my arms, I slowly walked closer to the room.
At a glance, I saw Dun Kong at the head of the bed.
He stood quietly on the edge of the bed, his eyes staring straight ahead, but there was a lack of concentration in his eyes.
As for his hand, he still held an ancient thread-bound book.
Dunkong's reaction was as if he had lost his soul!
"It's...almost two months...nothing happened again...something happened suddenly. Fortunately, Yin Yang, you are back...otherwise I would have..."
Obviously, something happened to Dunkong this time, and He Zhi was almost at the critical point.
I was equally depressed and uncomfortable. Looking at Dunkong's lifeless appearance, I felt as if I had been stabbed in the heart by a needle.
"What just happened?" I pressed He Zhi's shoulder and asked in a low voice.
He Zhi's expression finally calmed down a little. She nodded vigorously and asked me uneasily what I should do.
I frowned.
Now Tuukong's loss of soul is obviously much more serious than before.
Before, he only lost his soul when he was sleeping, but now he loses his soul even when he is standing...
Soon, the paper figures Xu and Liao Cheng hurried to the door of the house.
The paper man Xu said in shock: "What's going on?!" Except for He Zhi and I, the matter of Dunkong Lost Soul has been kept secret, and no one else knows.
Now that Paperman Xu has seen it, he naturally can't hide it.
The next moment, Paper Man Xu seemed to have noticed something, and murmured: "Has he lost his soul?!" His brows were furrowed, and his eyes were unnatural and wary.
During this time, Liao Cheng had already walked to the bedside, and he pressed Dunkong's fontanelle with one hand!
He Zhi looked panicked, and she was about to walk forward.
"Mr. Liao is a friend of Brother Jiang and also a friend of mine. He can save Dunkong." I didn't let He Fei go forward.
Paperman Xu looked even more nervous.
Liao Cheng murmured in a low voice, as if he was reciting some spell.
He took something out of his pocket with his left hand.
It was a coin as white as jade.
It looks like a copper coin, but it is actually a jade coin.
Liao Cheng quickly placed the jade coin on Dun Kong's head.
Then, he slowly took a few steps back and no longer stood beside Dunkong.
The room seems to have become a little warmer. Is it not the temperature, but the warmth?
It's like the anger has become extra abundant? !
Dunkong's originally dull eyes seemed to have regained consciousness.
He sat down blankly, lying flat on the bed with his eyes closed.
Liao Cheng exhaled heavily and then said: "Recruit the lost soul again. It will naturally wake up after dawn."
Immediately afterwards, Liao Cheng made a gesture of invitation and said in a deep voice: "Brother Yin Yang, let's talk in detail outside."
He Zhi wants to go to the bed.
Liao Cheng immediately said again: "No one should disturb him, and everyone should leave the room." At this point, He Pheasant, Zhiren Xu, and I had no choice but to go to the main room.
After entering the house, sitting around the wooden table, the paper man Xu Cai said in a deep voice: "Some time ago, something happened in the town, and there were two more corpses inexplicably. We still don't know the reason."
"Did someone plot to hurt Dunkong?!" Obviously, the paper man Xu didn't think too deeply about it.
He Zhi bit her lip slightly and looked at me.
I was silent for a moment and then said complicatedly: "Uncle Xu, this matter is a long story. Dunkong was born with a frail body. We always thought it was a hidden disease, so we didn't tell you because we were worried about you."
