"Okay, since Uncle Li has agreed, I will release the soul now. You must not be scared."

Tang Xiaobao warned.

Li Zongwan nodded again. He was speechless and was deeply shocked.

Tang Xiaobao opened the porcelain bottle according to the method taught by Lan Nu, made a gesture with his hand, and an illusory body flew out of the porcelain.

When it first came out, it was very small, probably only the size of a thumb, but it seemed to grow with the wind and immediately became a foot high. It was exactly like a small version of Li Jie.

Li Zongwan was so scared that his eyes widened and he covered his mouth with his hands.

He will never forget this strange scene.

Then, Li Jie's soul floated in the air for a while, and finally seemed to have found a home. It entered Li Jie's body and disappeared.

Immediately afterwards, the soul of the big yellow dog also flew out, but it cleverly floated out through the crack in the door.

Li Jie's complexion quickly returned to normal. He was still a little pale, but no longer blue. He looked like he had suffered a serious illness and lay there weakly without waking up.

The black air that enveloped his body had faded away, and he looked like he was asleep.

Li Zongwan finally came to his senses and accepted everything in front of him. He stared at his son for a while and asked Tang Xiaobao cautiously, "Why hasn't he woken up yet?"

"I guess I'll wake up after a nap."

Tang Xiaobao reminded him, "He's fine now, and his breathing has improved a lot, but his body is very weak. After all, his soul has been away from his body for so long, and he's naturally deficient in Yang Qi, making him very susceptible to encountering unclean things. Later, you should stew some more nutritious food for him to nourish him, especially to replenish his Yang Qi, and he'll be back to normal."

"Thank you, Xiaobao."

Li Zongwan held Tang Xiaobao's hand and was so excited that he was incoherent.

"Uncle Li, you are too polite."

Tang Xiaobao smiled and said, "Brother Li Jie took care of me a lot when I was a child. It's my duty to help others. Just don't tell anyone about what happened today."

"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone, not even his mother."

Li Zongwan said with a solemn oath.

Tang Xiaobao nodded. "I'm just afraid of scaring them. Besides, this kind of thing is fine if you just know about it. There's no need to let others know. Okay, let's go out and check on Da Huang. Maybe it's time for him to wake up."

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Lanxiang knocked on the door.

"how's it going?"

Li Zongwan opened the door with a complicated expression, but he couldn't help but feel relieved and happy: "Okay, Li Jie has been saved, but he is too weak. Go kill the chicken quickly. Xiaobao will also have lunch at our house at noon."

"No, Uncle Li, I have things to go back to."

"Oh, I see. You can eat here. I'll go over and invite all your friends to come eat with us."

sweat……

Tang Xiaobao quickly declined.

In the end, Li Zongwan no longer insisted.

Liu Lanxiang was also very happy and thanked him repeatedly.

Suddenly, there was a dog barking sound from above, and then a yellow shadow rushed in from outside the yard. It was Dahuang.

Dahuang ran up to Li Zongwan and his wife, wagging his tail.

Liu Lanxiang was terrified and stunned: "This, this, this - how come Da Huang is alive again? Wasn't he dead? I threw him outside the yard."

Li Zongwan also swallowed his saliva and said, "It's better if he's not dead. Go kill the chicken quickly."

"Ah, we still need to kill chickens?"

Li Zongwan said: "Xiaobao said that Li Jie's body is weak and needs to be nourished before he can fully recover."

"Then I'll go catch the chickens. You can do it. I don't dare kill chickens."

Liu Lanxiang went to catch chickens.

Li Zongwan pulled Tang Xiaobao and said, "Xiaobao, don't leave yet."

He went back to the house and came out with a stack of money in his hand.

Ten thousand yuan.

It was the red envelope that Tang Xiaobao sent a few days ago.

Li Zongwan's family is not doing well either. Anyway, their savings are not as great as mine, and this is all they have.

He stuffed the money into Tang Xiaobao's hand and said embarrassedly: "Xiaobao, Uncle Li doesn't have much money. This is the red envelope you gave me. I will give you another red envelope now. This time it is really thanks to you. Otherwise, Li Jie would definitely be dead. Please don't refuse it."

Tang Xiaobao was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

Could he not refuse?

Li Jie's family was not wealthy, and the ten thousand yuan was all red envelopes given by him. He understood Li Zongwan's gratitude, but he absolutely could not accept this money.

It is enough for people to know how to be grateful.

Besides, Li Jie was his childhood playmate. Even if Li Zongwan and his wife did not know how to be grateful, as people from the same village, he could not just stand by and watch them die.

After some refusals, Tang Xiaobao threw down the money and left.

As a result, before he got home, Tang Qingshan called him and said that Xiang Wang had come with his girlfriend to pay New Year's greetings.

Tang Xiaobao rushed home and saw the fat man sitting in the living room with a young girl.

They are all very restrained.

It would be strange if he wasn't restrained, as there were Tang Xiaobao's group of girlfriends around, all of them were stunning beauties.

Xiang Wang’s girlfriend is very young, probably only eighteen or nineteen years old at most. She is pretty and simple, not fancy at all. She looks pleasing and down-to-earth, but compared with the beautiful girls around Tang Xiaobao, she is much inferior.

"Tang Xiaobao."

Xiang Wang stood up.

His girlfriend also stood up, looking at him with some nervousness and curiosity.

Tang Xiaobao laughed: "Fatty, do we really need to be so polite? Come and sit down."

Then, he introduced to his family, "This is my best classmate and deskmate in middle school, my best brother, Xiang Wang. Who is this?"

He looked at the girl.

Xiang Wang quickly introduced her: "She is my girlfriend Liu Xia."

"Hello."

Tang Xiaobao greeted politely.

Liu Xia blushed and replied, "Hello."

"Why did you suddenly remember to wish me a happy new year? I was planning to go to you for a drink in a few days. Now, let's have a few drinks at noon."

Tang Xiaobao was still very happy that Xiang Wang came.

Unexpectedly, Xiang Wang said firmly: "Forget it, I have something else to do today, so I won't stay for dinner. We have to leave now."

After saying that, he winked at Liu Xia.

Liu Xia also stood up.

"That won't do. We have to eat before we leave," said Tang Qingshan.

Wu Chunmei also kept the guest: "Yes, lunch will be served soon."

Yes, Chen Mengyao and Wanru were both cooking in the kitchen, and Xiang Wang saw them just now.

But no matter how they tried to keep him, Xiang Wang had to leave.

Tang Xiaobao felt that something was wrong.

Seeing Xiang Wang winking at him, he walked him out.

Xiang Wang drove up and bought a BMW X6. Before getting in the car, he whispered to Tang Xiaobao, "I have one more thing to ask you this time."

Tang Xiaobao said, "I see. Tell me, what's the matter?"

"Do you still remember Xu Xuanxuan?"

ask.
