Chapter 231 Xiaobao

Yun Qingqing's eyes moved, and the clear light in her dark pupils became more and more concentrated.

This little boy is indeed weird.

She walked up to the little boy and looked at him with a smile:

"You found the gate of Tianming Pavilion?"

The little boy avoided her gaze and said nothing.

Yun Qingqing took out a candy from the space and placed it in her palm, showing it to him:

"Tell me the truth and I'll give you this candy, okay?"

The little boy took a quick glance at the candy and his eyes immediately lit up.

He glanced at the woman next to him, and after getting her approval, he carefully picked up the candy and nodded shyly to Yun Qingqing.

Yun Qingqing understood what he meant. It was indeed him who found the closed Tianming Pavilion.

The rest of the boy looks the same as a normal person, except for his eyes, which are filled with spiritual energy, comparable to a treasure from heaven.

No wonder he could see through the deception here.

But this also gave her a reminder.

At first, she only thought that the spiritual energy in this world was exhausted and there could not be any powerful practitioners, so the deception of Tianming Pavilion only prevented ordinary people.

But the last time she fought with the man in black, she realized that there were cultivators in this world who had cultivated into Yang Gods just like her.

There are also people like her little disciple Su Tongyun who can easily break into Tianming Pavilion.

Plus today's...

The world is not as simple as she thought. If she doesn't want others to discover the secrets of Tianming Pavilion, she should be fully prepared.

"Master Pavilion Master, this child..." The woman's timid voice brought Yun Qingqing back to her senses.

She nodded, encouraging the woman to continue:

"Tell me, what do you want to ask?"

The woman glanced at the little boy and sighed:

"My little treasure may be possessed by evil spirits. Master, please help me see how to get rid of the evil spirits in him."

"Possessed?" Yun Qingqing raised her eyebrows. "Why do you think he is possessed?"

Are you kidding? Her spiritual eyes didn't see any trace of evil in this child. As a parent, can you judge evil with just your mouth?

The woman sighed deeply again and told the whole story.

The woman said her name was Wei Cuilan and the boy's name was Xiaobao, her son.

She said that she brought Xiaobao here secretly today because her husband felt that their son's previous strange behavior was just the result of the child being naughty, or that his imagination was too rich, which led to those silly ideas.

The husband said that after a period of time, when he had had enough of the trouble and lost interest, he would naturally stop saying those nonsense.

Yun Qingqing interrupted her and asked:

"You think Xiaobao's so-called disturbance is just talking nonsense?"

Wei Cuilan nodded.

"So what did he say? Tell me how much you can remember." Yun Qingqing said again.

Wei Cuilan sighed and said:

"At first, one day, the child's father and I went back to our hometown to visit relatives, and we left Xiaobao at the home of his second aunt, a neighbor. As a result, Xiaobao disappeared at night, and his second aunt's family was very worried. They looked for him everywhere but couldn't find him. When we went back at dawn, we found that Xiaobao had gone home by himself and was sleeping soundly."

"Second Aunt was naturally very angry. She woke him up on the spot and asked him where he went last night and why he didn't tell her."

"As a result, the child insisted that he had returned to his own home, saying that his grandparents called him home to play, and that he went there. He also said that he played until midnight and came back, and had been sleeping in the house the whole time, and he knew nothing else."

"The problem is that this kid swore to it, but his second aunt and her family went to our house first, and used the key we left outside the door when we left to get in."

"When they went there, all the houses were dark. There was no one inside. This little bastard must be lying!"

"But this kid just refused to admit his mistake. No matter how hard we asked him, he insisted that his grandparents had called him back to his house to play."

"After that incident, Second Aunt went to check the house again, but there was no sign that anyone had been there. She couldn't believe it even if she wanted to. When we came back, she told us the truth. The child's father was very angry and beat him up severely."

"We didn't think too much about it at the time and thought it was over."

"But a few days later, Xiaobao was playing outside my house in the evening. When I called him to eat, it was almost dark. I didn't see Xiaobao at the door, and I looked around but couldn't find any trace of him."

"I was really scared at the time. I thought the child was too young and had been kidnapped. I mobilized villagers from all over the town to look for him, but the result was..."

Wei Cuilan sighed:

"In the end, we found him at a grave. He said his grandparents came to play with him again, but this time they thought there were too many people in the house, so they went back first. Xiaobao said it was boring to play and wanted to go to his grandparents' house, so he followed them."

"But when we found Xiaobao, he could no longer remember what happened after he followed his 'grandparents'."

"It's just that Xiaobao's grandparents died before she was born, and the grave he went to was an isolated grave that had nothing to do with his grandparents. So the child's father thought Xiaobao was lying again and beat him up."

"This time, because I found Xiaobao at a grave, I was a little scared and thought about asking someone to help take a look, but his father strongly opposed it, so I had to give up."

"Later, I quietly asked around for a while and found out that no one in the area saw Xiaobao leave that day, including on the way to the grave. No one saw him at all, not to mention the two grandparents who never showed up."

Yun Qingqing frowned slightly:

"Even so, you still didn't ask someone to help, but listened to your husband and thought the child was lying?"

Wei Cuilan twisted her clothes and lowered her head:

"I want to, but the kid's father beats people... I'm afraid of him."

Yun Qingqing frowned even tighter, paused for a while, and said:

"Go on, what prompted you to come here?"

"Because not long after that, another incident happened..." Wei Cuilan said.

In fact, after the second incident happened, she tried every means to get a peace of mind amulet for Xiaobao and asked him to wear it for peace of mind.

Then suddenly one day, the couple were awakened in the middle of the night by a series of loud clanging sounds.

The two men discovered that the sound came from the front hall and thought that someone had attacked their house.

At that time, Wei Cuilan was extremely frightened and just held on to her husband's hairpin tightly. The man went to the back kitchen, picked up a fire stick from the corner, and the two of them carefully came to the front hall.

As a result, I saw that the hall was brightly lit and Xiaobao was alone inside, banging on a bunch of pots and pans, while he was listening to something and laughing from time to time.

The couple was frightened by the strange sight and immediately rushed into the room, asking Xiaobao what he was doing and who he was talking to.

Xiaobao pointed at the air and said with a smile:

"It's grandpa and grandma! Can't you see they are right here?"

At that moment, Wei Cuilan's heart skipped a beat and she felt the hairs on her back stand up.

Her husband didn't believe it, and said that he didn't know who taught him to lie, and that he had become even worse recently.

Xiaobao felt aggrieved and retorted a few words. He then pointed to a place where no one was around and said that he did not lie and that his grandparents were clearly there. He also said that his grandfather had said that if his father bullied him, his grandparents would give him a good lesson to vent his anger.

Wei Cuilan's husband became furious and beat Xiaobao severely with a wooden stick. The father and son seemed to be at a quarrel. Xiaobao would rather be beaten and cry loudly than admit his mistake. He cried and said to his grandfather, "Grandpa, please teach him a lesson."

In fact, Wei Cuilan has felt that something evil has happened recently, but every time she mentions this, her husband becomes impatient and even tells her to shut up fiercely.

After she was beaten several times for this, she never dared to mention these things to others' faces again.

But after her husband beat Xiaobao severely, he started to have a fever the next day and talked nonsense from time to time.

From that day on, Xiaobao hardly spoke a word. She always squatted in the corner of the room where her husband was recuperating, staring at him quietly, not knowing what she was looking at.
