Chapter 47 Lost Soul

  A middle-aged man sent Tian Qi to the company and drove back, as it was still early, he had been there once before and knew the way, so they could drive over by themselves at night.

  Actually, there aren't many things to prepare, this isn't some kind of evil spirit, and a black stick is definitely not needed. If the old lady's soul were scattered, her family wouldn't agree with it either.

  The mentor told Tian Qi that unless absolutely necessary, do not harm a soul, and it's even more important to avoid causing souls to scatter. They are also going against the heavens by doing this line of work, they can't be too murderous, accumulating some good karma for themselves won't hurt anything.

  In the remaining pages of "Ghost Catcher's Diary", Tian Qi also saw similar words, "Ghosts are born from sorrow, it is absolutely forbidden to have reckless murderous thoughts, one should try to persuade them to change their ways."

  Tian Qi ended up taking only his sunglasses, while Fatso brought along his black jade which was enough.

  Next is the waiting time, waiting for sunset, they set off to the client's home.

  But just an hour before departure, Tianqi's phone rang, and it was that middle-aged man who called.

  "Hello?" Tian Qi answered the phone and said, thinking that they might be a bit anxious.

  But when he heard what the middle-aged man said, Tian Qi's face changed color.

  "Hurry up and drive, Fatty!" Tian Qi urged, putting down the phone, as he hurried the still-reclining Fatty on the sofa.

  "What's wrong? Isn't it not time yet?" Fatso said with a lazy look.

  Seeing Baozi like this, Tianqi thought of going up and kicking him, "The client's child suddenly fainted and is now on the way to the hospital!"

  On the way to the hospital, Tian Qi speculated about various possibilities, because there are many reasons that can cause a child to faint, such as sudden illness, food poisoning, and of course, being possessed by evil spirits.

  A middle-aged man said on the phone that the child had no symptoms at all, and suddenly fainted. If it was food poisoning or something, there would definitely be some changes in his body.

  But the child didn't show any change at all, just like being in a deep sleep, jumping around in the living room and suddenly fainted.

  "Hurry up and open it, Fatty!" Tian Qi's heart was anxious. That child was so cute, if something really went wrong, he wouldn't feel good either.

  When Tian Qi said that, the fat man accelerated his pace again. In fact, he was also anxious in his heart. Originally, they were not slow, but now both people's emotions were a bit urgent and didn't feel it.

  Finally arrived at the hospital, the child is in the emergency room.

  Seeing Tian Qi and Pangzi rushing over, the family seemed to have seen a lifesaver, surrounding them, letting the passing nurses look at them in surprise.

  "I understand how you're feeling now, but don't get too excited yet. It's possible that the child really did contract some illness and it has nothing to do with that incident," Tian Qi said.

  Now that we know the child's grandmother hasn't left and has an impact on the child, when something like this suddenly happens, family members will naturally think of this first.

  Actually, Tian Qi just said that to comfort them. He had his own rough guess in mind, but he hadn't seen the child yet and couldn't make a judgment.

  An hour had passed, and the lights in the emergency room finally went out. The child's family, including Tianqi and Paozi, were all anxious, but actually, Tianqi was hoping that it wasn't because of his grandmother's influence, but rather a normal illness.

  But the doctor's answer turned Tianqi's worries into reality.

  The child did not find out the cause of coma and needs further physical examination.

  Next, the child entered the ward and the hospital's experts conducted a consultation. During this time, the child's father tried several times to let those experts go first and have Tianqi take a look, but was stopped by Tianqi every time. What if it really is some kind of difficult disease and delaying treatment would worsen the child's condition?

  The consultation went on for almost an hour, during which various examinations were also conducted, but the cause was still not found.

  "Tianqi, you see if the child is..." The man kept politely calling Tianqi Mr. Wu, Tianqi felt a bit uncomfortable and asked him to change his tone.

  Walking up to the child's bed, I saw a thick black aura on his forehead. Of course, this was not the reason for the child's coma.

  "The child's soul is gone." Tian Qi made his own judgment.

  Humans have three souls and seven spirits. A child's soul is very unstable before the age of ten, and it's easy to scare them away. In some rural areas now, when children sleep, they will put a small red cloth bag on both sides of their body, which is used to prevent the child from losing their soul while sleeping. If the soul hasn't gone far, it can be called back with just one shout. But if it has gone far away, that's a troublesome thing.

  "What's going on? Is the child okay?" As soon as she heard that her child had lost his soul, if it weren't for the man holding her up, the child's mother almost fainted, and anxiously asked.

  "The child has lost a soul and three spirits. If they can be found, he will wake up, but if not... " Tian Qi didn't continue speaking, he didn't want to say such words, but the family had the right to know, it's better to prepare themselves mentally."

  Next, under the insistence of the child's family, the child was discharged from the hospital. Although the hospital tried its best to stop it, the family insisted and they had no way out. After all, they didn't find any reason, and if the family blamed the hospital in the end, they couldn't explain it clearly either.

  "Are these four places the main ones?" Tian Qi marked them on the map.

  "Yes, these are the places where his grandmother usually takes the kids."

  The child's soul must have been taken away by his grandmother, so Tian Qi asked the child's family to find out where the child's grandmother often took the child before her death, and the possibility is the greatest there.

  At eleven o'clock in the evening, it was completely dark, and the residential area fell silent. Tian Qi took her child's mother downstairs.

  A child's soul is a yin thing, and women are yin. This matter can only be done by the child's mother. Although she is afraid in her heart, for the sake of her own child, she is willing to sacrifice her own life.

  "Don't be afraid of anything you see later, just think of your own child." As they went downstairs, Tian Qi reminded the child's mother again and handed her the red rope.

  That's the method on the Ghost Catcher's Diary fragment, using a red string to make a loop, when finding the child, let the child's mother put the loop on the child's head and then lead the child back home. After the child's soul that went out returns to their body, this matter is considered settled.

  There are four places, the park in the community, a square near the community, an amusement park next to the community, and downstairs. Sometimes the child's grandmother takes the child to play downstairs for a while, and there will be other children playing together inside the building.

  Fortunately, it's good that the child is small and won't go too many places or too far away, otherwise, it would be really troublesome.

  Tian Qi didn't let the fatty follow him, but instead had him watch the child. The child's soul is currently incomplete and it's easy for other lonely ghosts to discover and occupy his body. The fatty has a jade pendant around his neck that has a protective effect.

  Although he was born with the ability to see ghosts, Tianqi still dripped cow tears for insurance, and also gave some to the child's mother.

  Out of the elevator, the two came to the downstairs, soft lighting, lush trees.

  "Ah!" The child's mother couldn't help but cry out, quickly covering her own mouth with her hand.

  He saw several people in strange clothes on the road and in the green woods of the residential area, who were obviously not normal people.

  "Don't be afraid, I'm here with you. They won't dare to do anything to you. Just focus on finding your child and your mother-in-law." Tian Qi took out the yin-yang mirror, and several souls who had heard the noise and turned around quickly retreated when they saw what Tian Qi was holding in his hand.

  Tian Qi immediately put the yin-yang mirror into his clothes pocket. If he carried it like this, no ghosts would come to disturb him, but he wouldn't be able to find the souls of the child and his grandmother either.

  The child's mother adapted for a while and then began searching for her soul.

  The community is very large, but the area where children play downstairs is small, only a few hundred meters in circumference, and it's easy to get around quickly.

  "How's it going? Any discoveries?" Tian Qi asked.

  The child's mother shook her head and they went to their next destination, a park in the residential area.

  There were more lonely ghosts and wild devils in the park than under the building of the residential area just now, Tian Qi didn't know what was going on, and he didn't have time to study it now either.

  "That's the father of our upstairs big brother, how can he be here?" Although she shed tears like a cow, after all, the child's mother was an ordinary person and couldn't see very clearly, needing to carefully identify.

  "We'll talk about this later," Tian Qi said. "Everything has its reasons."

  The child's mother nodded and continued searching for the souls of her child and mother-in-law.

  Just then, Tian Qi discovered a pair of eyes staring tightly at the child's mother, with an extremely vicious gaze, as if they were about to pounce over at any moment.

  Tian Qi furrowed his brow, looked over and found that it was a tattered old man with one foot missing, very much like a beggar on the street.
