Lin Wanyue circled around Qi Yuan.

She propped herself up with one elbow and pinched her chin, looking quite the little adult.

Qi Sichen, standing nearby, asked anxiously, "Have you noticed anything wrong?"

When Lin Wanyue was observing Qi Yuan, he also looked around from the side. He only felt sorry for the child because he was too thin, and couldn't see anything else.

Qi Yuan, on the other hand, was blushing so much that the blush spread to his body, and his porcelain-white skin was tinged with a light pink.

"..." He lowered his head, his voice barely audible, "Can I put my clothes on now?"

Lin Wanyue slapped her head and said, "I know, this should be the Soul Loss and Dream Leaving Divine Speed ​​Spell."

Qi Yuan and Qi Sichen looked completely bewildered.

They had no idea what that meant.

But Lin Wanyue's soft little face was full of excitement, and she said with great pleasure, "Think carefully, has he always been sickly and had many dreams, and was always in poor spirits? It has been like this since he was a child."

“That is indeed true.” Qi Sichen nodded.

But he didn't think there was anything special about it; people who are sick or weak are usually like that.

"Look!" Lin Wanyue pressed her short, slightly dented fingers against the veins under Qi Yuan's skin. "Take another look. His veins are different from others; they've become channels for spiritual travel. His destiny isn't just one of wealth and nobility; he probably also has some connection to the immortals. Otherwise, he wouldn't have attracted so many ghosts who want to steal his vital energy!"

"He has been in a coma for many years and has been haunted by ghosts, which has wasted his vital energy. I'm afraid he will die from exhaustion in a few years."

Hearing how serious she was talking about it, Qi Sichen's face turned ashen: "Then can you tell who did this?"

"I think... it's probably one of the twenty-odd female ghosts we encountered a couple of days ago, or maybe they worked together?" Lin Wanyue had actually figured out the spell, so it wasn't difficult to deduce who was behind it.

"Women? Several women have such abilities? And if they have such abilities, why did they turn into ghosts?" Qi Sichen asked with some doubt.

"Hmph!" Lin Wanyue heard the implication in his words that seemed to be somewhat disdainful of women, so she snorted and said, "Do you think curses are so easy to use? In this world, if you want to take something away, you must first give it to someone. Although curses can harm people, they also come at a price. Even if they pay with their own lives, they cannot kill him in a short time."

"..." Qi Yuan was looking down at the somewhat grayish veins on his hand, imagining his life slipping away bit by bit here.

Suddenly, Qi Sichen knelt down in front of Lin Wanyue with a thud: "Please, little fairy, save my life. As long as you can save my young master's life, I will do my best to do anything you can ask for."

He now completely believes Lin Wanyue's words.

Over the years, he has made many desperate attempts to seek medical help, summoning not only imperial physicians but also doctors from the common people, and even various Taoist priests and monks.

However, none of them could figure out what exactly was wrong with Qi Yuan.

Lin Wanyue can see it now!

That would give Qi Yuan a chance to be rescued.

He couldn't miss this opportunity.

"No need to kneel, get up quickly." Lin Wanyue quickly moved aside, not wanting to witness Qi Sichen kneeling before her.

"I only beg you to save my young master's life." Qi Sichen wanted to kowtow again, but Lin Wanyue had already hidden behind Qi Yuan.

"Uncle," Qi Yuan reached out to help Qi Sichen up, "you should get up quickly."

Qi Sichen then stood up from the ground and discussed with Lin Wanyue the matter of saving Qi Yuan.

Lin Wanyue originally didn't intend to stand by and watch someone die, but she also felt conflicted.

“His blood vessels are basically covered by the Soul Loss and Dream Transcending Curse, which means it’s been there for many years… It’s practically impossible to remove it all at once. But you can’t stay here for long, so all I can do is give you a few more talismans to save your lives. That’s all I can do,” Lin Wanyue said helplessly.

She wanted to save people, but her abilities were limited.

"This..." Qi Sichen frowned and pressed Lin Wanyue for an answer, "How long will it take to cure him?"

Looking at Qi Yuan's fair skin, which was slightly bluish from the cold wind, Lin Wanyue said with a pang of pity, "Little brother, you should put your clothes on quickly."

"Little immortal, how much longer?" Qi Sichen had already picked up the clothes next to him and skillfully put them on Qi Yuan.

"At the very least, it will take several months, right?" Lin Wanyue didn't dare to be too definitive.

After all, she had only heard a little about sorcery and had not yet experimented with it herself.

Considering the spiritual spring water in his villa, which seemed to have a certain suppressive effect, he dared not rely entirely on it.

Qi Sichen fell into deep thought.

Now that winter has arrived, it will be quite a journey for them to return to the capital from here. Ordinary paperwork is one thing, but with winter approaching, the two most important things for them are the sacrificial rites.

He could do everything in place of Qi Yuan, but the priest could not.

In other words, they really didn't have that much time to stay in this small county town.

If the mountain won't come to me, I'll come to the mountain.

Qi Sichen's gaze fell on the words written on the desk, and suddenly a flash of inspiration struck him; he finally had an idea.

Qi Sichen's face was already somewhat too beautiful, and when he smiled, it was like a camellia in winter, illuminating the whole room.

He smiled and said to Lin Wanyue, "Little girl, would you like to go to the capital for fun?"

"No! I have to stay with my father, mother, grandmother, and brothers," Lin Wanyue refused without hesitation.

“Of course.” Qi Sichen was not angry at being rejected and said amicably, “I can bring them all.”

"That won't do either. The capital is too far away. I have to listen to my father, my mother, and my grandmother." Lin Wanyue looked at Qi Sichen. Could he really have become the guy her father was talking about who wanted to snatch her away?

But when Qi Sichen heard these words, it became that Lin Wanyue would listen to her father but wouldn't run off with him, an outsider.

Qi Sichen raised an eyebrow and turned his eyes slightly, as if he was thinking about something.

"Then, how about you become my daughter? If you become my daughter, I can give you even this county! I can give you ten or twenty counties of this size, and make you a county lord or princess."

Qi Sichen smiled enticingly and said, "I can give you all the gold and silver I have, and I can also give you many good things that you have never seen before. My young master can also be yours."

Qi Yuan: ?(? ???ω??? ?)?

Lin Wanyue: "?"
