Chapter 550: The Child Monster in the Dream

Tu Bufan: "I dreamed that I was trapped in a dark place, surrounded by water."

"I'm in the water too."

"A monster that looked like a child kicked me hard, cursing as he did so."

"I couldn't escape, and I couldn't understand what it was saying, but I knew it was swearing very badly."

Fu Mo: That’s it?

Tu Bufan didn't notice Fu Mo's expression. There was a flash of pain and struggle in his eyes.

"If it were just a nightmare, I wouldn't be distressed."

"But I've had this nightmare for over a month straight."

"Every day when I close my eyes, I get kicked by that child monster. In my dreams, I can't resist and can only let it kick me."

"At first I thought I was just too tired, so I went to the doctor and got some sleeping pills."

"The medicine worked for two days, and I slept well during those two days."

"Two days later, the medicine wore off, and the child monster came back. It seemed to have grown a little bigger, kicking me harder and swearing at me even more."

"I realized I might have been possessed by evil spirits, so I went to Huangyun Temple and bought some talismans to ward off evil spirits."

"It also only worked for a few days. After those few days, the child monster, which had grown a little bit bigger, came into my dream again and kicked me, cursing at me while kicking. But I couldn't understand what it was cursing at."

"I was tortured to the point where I couldn't sleep or even close my eyes."

"The kid monster is driving me crazy."

Tu Bufan scratched his hair in distress.

He hadn't gotten enough sleep for several days and his hair was falling out in clumps.

His mental state also gradually declined.

Fu Mo's expression gradually became serious.

He and Tu Bufan have been close friends for many years and he knows that Tu Bufan would not lie about such things.

This dream is really weird.

"Have you ever consulted a fortune teller?"

Tu Bufan: "I've seen it."

"I've prayed, burned paper, and tried folk remedies, but nothing works."

"Even if it works, it will only work for a few days. After those few days, the child monster will appear again."

"I'm going crazy."

"By the way, what's the formula you mentioned? Teach it to me quickly."

Fu Mo: ...In the case of slaughtering the puppy, he wasn’t sure if it would be any use.

"Listen carefully..."

"It's useful to me, but I'm not sure if it will be useful to you."

Tu Bufan was skeptical.

These twenty-four-word mantras were completely different from the spells he knew.

Fu Mo: "You wouldn't have this kind of dream for no reason. Why don't you think about it carefully? Have you ever offended a child-like monster? For example, a yellow-skinned monster that has become a spirit."

Tu Bufan shook his head: "No."

"At first I suspected I had accidentally offended a child-like monster, but I've thought about it and I can't think of anything else."

Fu Mo was at his wit's end.

He doubted whether Tu Xiaogou was really possessed.

He used to firmly believe in the hell fog and the night of ten thousand ghosts during the Ghost Festival, but the princess told him that these were all man-made and the ten thousand ghosts were just hallucinations caused by inhaling too much thick fog.

He had reason to suspect that the butchered puppy might also have been poisoned.

The poisonous fog caused Tu Xiaogou to have hallucinations, making people think that he was possessed by evil spirits.

Thinking of this, Fu Mo shuddered, stood up and tried to pull Tu Bufan away.

Seeing the table full of dishes, he sat down again: "Eat quickly."

"The food is here, don't waste it. After you finish eating, I'll take you to find someone."

Tu Bufan asked gloomily, "Who?"

Fu Mo: "The one who taught me the twenty-four mantras."

After the disc action.

Fu Mo took Tu Bufan back to Prince Ling's Mansion.

"Princess, are you there?" Fu Mo knocked on the door.

Xie Yingmian is used to taking a nap.

She slept a little late because she had something to do today.

Not long after I fell asleep, I heard Fu Mo's voice.

Xie Yingmian was in a bad mood as her sleep was disturbed.

"Fu Mo, you'd better have something important to tell me." Xie Yingmian almost gritted her teeth.

Fu Mo scratched his head.

Finished!

He didn't expect that the princess was still taking a nap at this time.

If the prince knew that he had disturbed the princess's nap, he would not be able to escape the punishment.

Following the principle of "a friend's death is better than my own", Fu Mo pushed Tu Bufan out and said, "Princess, I have something urgent to do."

"My brother, Tu Bufan, whom you are also familiar with, may be dying."

Xie Yingmian:?

Tu Bufan: ...

Fu Mo said: "I suspect that Tu Xiaogou was poisoned, a poison that can cause hallucinations."

"He's been having a recurring nightmare lately, to the point where he can't sleep at night."

"He thought he was possessed by an evil spirit, but after the poisonous fog incident, I think it was more like he was poisoned."

Xie Yingmian saw Tu Bufan, whose eyes were dark and whose spirit was dispirited, and he did not look well. "Come in."

Xie Yingmian took Tu Bufan's pulse.

Her expression became increasingly serious.

Fu Mo and Tu Bufan were so angry that their hearts were in their throats.

Wait for Xie Yingmian to finish taking the pulse.

Fu Mo couldn't help but ask, "Princess, is Tu Xiaogou okay?"

Xie Yingmian looked at Tu Bufan: "You really don't know what you did?"

Tu Bufan rubbed his face vigorously: "I really don't know."

"I've never offended a kid monster."

Xie Yingmian said in a deep voice, "You have never offended a child monster."

"You're possessed by a Gu."

"A kind of Gu called the Fetus Binding Gu."
