Yin Yang Rogue

  Ginger fatty seems to feel a bit sorry for his brother, and hesitates to speak up. I take a step forward and say: "I am Fang Xian, and I also know some Taoist skills. Let's go home with you first and see the situation."

  Liang Yuhao listened to my words, and a glimmer of hope burst out in his eyes, but he still asked: "If it's really a possession, can you help us, Fang Ge? My sister has suffered for her whole life, and she just started having good days two years ago..."

  I saw Liang Yuhao's eyes were red-rimmed, he was a true emotional person, so I nodded and said: "If there really is something going on, I promise to do my best."

  Liang Yuhao grasped my hand, his voice a little hoarse: "Thank you, thank you so much."

  We got on the bus, and all the way it was bumpy. Liang Yuhao had a lot on his mind, while Jiang Pangzi was drowsy. Because it was summer, a smell of sweat filled the entire carriage, with heat waves rolling around. I couldn't help but feel a bit anxious, so I closed my eyes and silently recited the "clear heart mantra", which made me feel a little more comfortable.

  After several hours of bumpy ride, we arrived in Handan City, and then transferred to another two buses before finally arriving at Niujiatun where Liang Yuhao's home is. It was already past 4 pm by the time we got there. I'm used to fasting on the mountain, so skipping a few meals wasn't a big deal for me. But Jiang Baozi was starving.

  We went straight to Liang Hongyu's home. On the way, Liang Yuhao called Liang Hongyu and told her that summer vacation had started and he was bringing two friends back to play, so when we entered the house, the room was bustling with people cooking. Liang Hongyu and her husband Li Shanmin looked very down-to-earth.

  Li Hongyu looked a bit older than her actual age, although she was very enthusiastic, but her face was somewhat haggard. We didn't mention it. We had a meal of farmhouse food together. During this time, I didn't see Li Yuhao's little niece YaYa. When I casually asked about it, Li Hongyu said the child was exhausted and went to bed early to rest.

  After finishing dinner, Li Shanmin asked Liang Hongyu to keep us company and chat with us while he went to collect the bowls and chopsticks. Liang Yuhao and Jiang Pangzi looked at me several times, I knew what they meant, so after thinking for a moment, I also didn't beat around the bush and directly said:

  "Miss Hongyu, actually I'm not Liang Yuhao's classmate. I'm a friend of Jiang Yuan and was entrusted by his father, also known as Master Qiankun, to come take a look at the kid. Would you like to chat with me?"

  Listen to me, Liang Hongyu's face turned pale and bloodless, her lips opened but nothing came out, however, her eyes were both shocked and fearful. I looked at her, trying my best to make my eyes gentle.

  It wasn't until half a day later that Liang Hongyu managed to squeeze out a sentence: "Ya Ya isn't a monster, she's just sick..."

  I frowned and asked Liang Hongyu, "Sister Hongyu, what's wrong with Yaoyao? What disease did she get?"

  Li Hongyu appeared very excited, stood up and waved his hand, knocking over a glass. "Don't worry about YaYa, I'll take her to the city for a check-up in a few days, you don't need to worry."

  When he heard the sound of a glass breaking, Li Shanmin in the kitchen also rushed out and saw Liang Hongyu excitedly hurrying to comfort her: "What's going on? Hongyu, don't be like this in front of the child, what happened?"

  Liang Yuhao also stood up and said, "Sister, don't get excited, Fang Ge is not a bad person. I noticed that Yaoyao had something on her mind last week, but you didn't tell me. Can you calm down and sit down to talk about it?"

  Liang Hongyu was emotionally agitated and insisted on driving us out. Liang Yuhao also became anxious, shouting loudly: "Sister, what's going on? Can't you say it clearly? Last time I came back, I found that Yaoyao was not feeling well. Yaoyao is your daughter, but she is also my niece. Could I harm her? Fang Ge is our own person and understands some rules. He comes to help us, and we drive him out like this?"

  Li Hongyu was stunned for a moment, I saw her relax and quickly said: "Sister Hongyu, Yu Hao is a friend of Jiang Yuan's, you don't have to worry, I'm really here to help, no malicious intentions, and won't go around saying anything. If there are any problems, we'll solve them together, that's all."

  "If it's not resolved, it'll still be a big deal. If things go on like this, everyone will know about it sooner or later, and it might really be irreparable in the end. If you truly care about Yaya, trust me just this once..."

  After hearing my words, Liang Hongyu still wanted to say something, but Li Shanmin on the side shouted loudly: "Enough, Hongyu. Protecting children is not like this. Is it necessary to wait until Yaya is like Xiaofang said, and there's no way to save her before it's over?"

  After listening to Li Shanmin's words, Liang Hongyu suddenly felt like her soul had been sucked out of her body. She plopped down on the sofa, covering her face and bursting into tears. But from this commotion, I was certain that something must have happened to Yaoyao.

  Liang Yuhao wanted to comfort Liang Hongyu, but was pulled back by me. I knew that this woman had been under a lot of mental pressure and torture over the past period, she needed to vent her emotions.

  Li Shanmin sighed and said, "I've made a fool of myself in front of you."

  I shook my head to indicate that it was nothing, and let Li Shanmin tell the whole thing again. I also wanted to see if there was anything I could help with. Only then did Li Shanmin recount the entire incident in detail.

  It turned out that more than half a month ago, the fertilizer at home was almost sold out, and Li Shanmin went to the city to stock up. During the day, Liang Hongyu rode her bicycle with her child to her grandmother's house, and when she returned at night, it was already midnight.

  Suddenly, a cat darted out of the darkness and jumped onto the handlebars. The bicycle was knocked over as a dog chased after the cat, which had been sitting on the crossbar.

  Nothing was wrong originally, rural cats and dogs are common! Liang Hongyu got up and took Yaoyao home on her bicycle. But when they arrived home, she found that Yaoyao had become listless, lacking in spirit, and not speaking. She seemed to have been frightened. Moreover, she couldn't sleep soundly and would wake up crying.

  Liang Hongyu heard from the old lady next door that this was a case of losing one's soul, and they needed to find a master to call back the soul. At that time, Li Shanmin had also returned from the city, so he went to invite a knowledgeable master. The master set up an altar, arranged a grand array, and began to call back the soul. After finishing the ritual, there was no improvement, and they even placed some kind of talisman under the pillow.

  I hastily asked Li Shanmin to bring the talisman over for me to take a look. At this time, Liang Hongyu also stopped crying and proactively went into the house to fetch the talisman. I took a look at the talisman that was brought out, it was an An Hun Talisman, but the strokes were light and not precise. The spiritual power on it wasn't that strong, if the person who drew this talisman was indeed Mr., then he should have some attainments in Taoism as well.

  After all, the drawing method of this talisman is still correct, unlike Lao Shen's which is all about deceiving people.

  I shook my head at Li Shanmin, indicating that the talisman was fine, and let him continue. Later on, the child improved a bit and wouldn't be dull and foolish anymore, but his personality changed, he wasn't as playful and mischievous as before, especially quiet, and usually didn't say much, watching whatever others did.

  One day, a dead cat was found at the door, and Yaoyao suddenly asked Li Shanmin: "Do cats have souls? Where do they go after they die?"

  Lee Soon-min was just an ordinary farmer, and he didn't know how to answer Ya-ya's question. Ya-ya seemed not to notice, staring at the dead cat and continuing to ask: "How much blood is there in a cat's body?"

  Li Shanmin didn't know how to respond, but from then on, Yaoyao was still quiet and uncommunicative, however her interests had shifted. Previously she would ask if things were fun or delicious, but later on, Yaoyao's questions were all related to death, blood, cats, and other such topics.

  This made the couple a bit uneasy, but they couldn't answer either. However, it seemed that Yaoyao was just asking casually and didn't really expect them to respond.

  It wasn't until a few days had passed that one evening, there was a fish at home that someone else had sent over, and it was still alive. Liang Hongyu planned to stew it the next day, so she found a basin to put it in. In the middle of the night, she heard some noise coming from the kitchen, but she was too sleepy to go take a look. The next morning when she went into the kitchen, she discovered that the fish had already died, and it had been bitten to death, its belly ripped open, with blood and flesh scattered all over the floor.

  Liang Hongyu thought it was a stray cat that had come in at midnight and took it away, so she cleaned up and threw it away.

  Two days later, one of the chickens raised at home had its eyes pecked out. Liang Hongyu took the injured chicken and tied it up in the kitchen, planning to stew it the next day. In the middle of the night, they heard a noise coming from the kitchen and thought it was just the chicken struggling, so the couple didn't pay attention to it. It wasn't until the next morning that they discovered the chicken had also been bitten to death by something, with a large hole in its neck and a lot of blood sucked out, leaving very little blood on the ground.

  Feathers were scattered all over the floor, and the scene was particularly disgusting. Liang Hongyu checked it out, and since the last time with the fish, the kitchen window had been closed every time. So what's going on with this chicken?

  Liang Hongyu went to call the child in a daze, wanting to ask if any cats had run into the room at midnight. But as soon as she entered the house, Liang Hongyu was stunned. All she saw was that YaYa's mouth was covered with blood and there were chicken feathers stuck to it.

  This scared Liang Hongyu half to death, a loud shriek, this yell startled the neighbors and also startled YaYa who was sleeping. YaYa lifted her head and looked at Liang Hongyu with a very cold gaze. Liang Hongyu suddenly discovered that the YaYa in front of her seemed completely unfamiliar, very strange, just like there was another person living inside YaYa's body.

  The old lady next door rushed in, just in time to see that Ya's mouth was full of blood and her eyes were coldly staring at them. She was also scared out of her wits, saying that Ya was a monster, then ran away. And whenever she saw someone, she would say that the child from Hongyu's family had become a monster, with a mouthful of blood and an especially eerie gaze.

  These rumors reached the ears of Liang Hongyu and her husband, making Liang Hongyu almost collapse. It was at that time that Liang Hongyu's mind was confused and her condition was very poor. Li Shanmin had no other choice but to call Liang Yuhao and ask him to accompany his sister more often.

  Later, Liang Hongyu didn't dare to put those living things in the kitchen again. Because rural houses are all bungalows, and at night they sleep with inserted doors. And Yaoya was only six years old, she couldn't reach the door even if she stretched out her hand, so there was no need to worry about her running out in the middle of the night. They thought that this would stop things from happening, but who could have imagined that things were far from over.
