Chapter 166 The Loss of the Heavenly Soul

The three searched the entire hospital but couldn't find him. When they got home, they found him in his study.

Holding that photo, I stared blankly, just like I did last night.

How can I reassure my family about my unusual behavior?

That day, Grandma and Father stayed in the study for a long time.

After coming out, he told the two that his father was fine, but he was under a lot of work pressure and had resigned. He would rest at home for a few days and be fine.

But one day, when Zhang Qiang came home from school, he saw his father smoking and picking at his nails until they bled, but he didn't notice at all!

At the same time of night, like a ghost, they were lifted from the bed and made to lie face down on the wooden board, listening to the sound that never existed.

Zhang Qiang tried to break free several times, but the other man was too strong.

"Xiaoqiang, did you hear that sound?"

In the end, Zhang Qiang relented, realizing that he seemed to have truly heard the voice, and his father left satisfied.

For several days afterward, every night, his father would take him to listen to that unfounded voice.

"Master Gu, is my father under a lot of pressure and hallucinating, or is he possessed by an evil spirit?"

[My goodness, no wonder the young man has such dark circles under his eyes. If I suffered like that every night, I'd go crazy.]

[His father must have suffered some kind of mental trauma, otherwise why would he be lying on the floor with his child in the middle of the night listening to those nonexistent noises?]

"Go on, don't be afraid. From now on, you will not be harmed."

Perhaps it was Gu Yunxi's assurance that made Zhang Qiang feel more at ease.

One night, he had a strange dream.

In his dream, he saw a black and white photograph of his father, sitting solemnly in the center of the table.

It feels a bit strange, like someone who has passed away.

In the blink of an eye, the photo turned into a ghost face, a ghost face without any features.

Suddenly, it crawled towards Zhang Qiang, shouting, "I've finally found you!"

I woke up with a start and saw my father standing by my bedside, and the cycle began a new one.

Unexpectedly, the day after this happened was the weekend!

Zhang Qiang was reading in his room when he heard a rooster crowing outside. He quietly opened the door a crack and saw his father holding a bright red rooster.

He turned and went into the kitchen.

Zhang Qiang took a bite out of the chicken's neck and exclaimed in surprise, accidentally knocking over a potted plant. His father, Zhang Shenghuan, turned around when he heard the noise.

His mouth was full of blood, and he had a strange smile on his face, which was sinister and terrifying.

"Xiaoqiang, want to try some? It's pretty good!"

Upon hearing his father's words, he could no longer bear it and ran to the bathroom to vomit.

"Master, could you please help me figure out what's wrong with my father? I've sent you his birth date and time and a photo privately."

Gu Yunxi glanced at the photo and was suddenly filled with respect for him.

It is precisely because of these people who are so dedicated and constantly research new products that those patients have been given a glimmer of hope to live.

“Zhang Qiang, I have seen your father. I can tell you clearly that you don’t need to be afraid. Your father has no illness.”

It is said that a person has three souls and seven spirits, and the mountain soul is further divided into the human soul, the heavenly soul, and the earthly soul.

However, your father lost one of his souls, his celestial soul, so his vital energy is insufficient, which to some extent can lead to mental confusion, causing him to be completely unaware of what he is doing.

If his celestial soul is recovered, he will become like a normal person and will no longer perform any strange actions.

"ah!"

Not only was Zhang Qiang stunned, but everyone in the live stream found it unbelievable.

"So my father didn't have a mental illness at the time. The reason he did all sorts of abnormal things at home was because he had lost a part of his soul."

"Yes, you said he was doing scientific research projects abroad for many years. He may have encountered something terrible there, which caused him to lose one of his souls. If this hadn't happened, your father and his partners would probably have developed a special drug to treat a certain disease by now."

This is another joyous occasion for our medical community. It's just a pity that things are unpredictable. Don't worry, I've taken this on. He's a pillar of the nation, and I won't charge you any fees.

[Master Gu is truly a conscientious broadcaster; she's beautiful, kind-hearted, and incredibly capable.]

I don't know how fortunate I am to be able to work with Master Gu.

[Aren't you envious? The "master" you're talking about is actually our roommate!]

Gu Yunxi looked at the comments and realized that it had been a long time since she had contacted them after leaving school.

She never participates in the school's group chat, except when Chang Jiangxubai occasionally makes sarcastic remarks about her.

The main problem is that Gu Yunxi is very busy and has no time to check group messages.

"Thank you, Master. Is there anything I can do to help?"

"How about this, before you start school, you come with me and your father to his workplace. Maybe we can find something useful."

"good!"

Gu Yunxi switched to audio mode, and Zhang Qiang heard a knock on the door as soon as he got up.

Opening the bedroom door, Zhang Qiang saw his father alone in the study with his back to him. At that moment, Zhang Qiang had only one thought in his mind: to help his father recover as soon as possible.

If this continues, he will really be tortured to death.

Hearing the knock, he opened the door and saw the person outside. He was so excited that he didn't know what to say and paused for a long time!

“Master Gu, you’ve finally arrived. My father is in the study. He’s a little confused, so please be careful.”

"It's alright. Stick this talisman on him, and he'll regain consciousness temporarily, so we can take him away safely."

Holding the yellowed talisman, Zhang Qiang still felt some resistance, mainly because his father's actions towards him these days had been too strange.

Seeing his hands, in particular, reminded me of that slap that night that pressed down on my head, making me hear that non-existent voice.

Slowly walking towards the study, Zhang Shenghuan raised his head, his eyes bloodshot. Zhang Qiang noticed that his fingernails were bleeding, and there were shocking scratch marks on the table next to him.

With a heavy heart, he directly stuck the talisman on his father's forehead.

We're doomed!

Master Gu just told me to stick it on my back, but now that it's stuck on, something feels off.

The talisman disappeared as soon as it was placed on his forehead.

Zhang Shenghuan snapped back to reality in an instant, staring blankly at his hands.

He looked up again and saw the woman at the door and his son standing not far from him.

"Xiaoqiang, what are you doing here? Didn't you go to school? How come you had time to come abroad to see me?"

"And how did I end up looking like this?"

As expected, he didn't remember anything. It seems that he doesn't remember much about everything that has happened since the loss of the Heavenly Soul.

"Dad, is it possible that it's not that I'm abroad, but that you've already come back?"
