Just as I was wondering, a cheerful song suddenly came from the square across the street.
"You are my little apple, I can never love you enough, your rosy cheeks warm my heart and light up the fire of my life..."
Chu Yu looked in the direction of the song and saw that on the square opposite, countless ghosts and monsters were dancing to "Little Apple" in neat rows. The lead dancer was an old Taoist priest with white hair and beard, wearing a blue Taoist robe.
The old Taoist priest wiggled his hips and waist, exuding a serious yet slightly flirtatious air.
Isn't that her master?
Chu Yu's lips twitched violently.
Holy crap! The old man isn't fishing in the woods, he's actually here dancing in the square, and he's doing it so flamboyantly, like a peacock spreading its tail feathers, he's completely lost his sense of propriety.
It's absolutely unbearable to look at.
The female ghost watching from the sidelines became infatuated with him.
"Wow, the Taoist priest's square dancing is so interesting!"
"Yeah, so alluring, so seductive."
"I never expected you to be such a Taoist priest. I love you."
...
Hearing the excited voices of the female ghosts, Chu Yu's lips twitched.
Is the old man just bored and trying to hook up with female ghost fans?
Chu Yu crossed the road and came to the square to watch her master dance.
After the dance, the female ghosts around him excitedly ran over and surrounded Taoist Changfeng.
"Master, you dance so well, so alluring and seductive. Could you teach me to dance?"
"Master, you have such an elegant demeanor! I really like you. Could you please give me your autograph?"
"Master, my husband isn't home tonight. Would you do me the honor of coming to my house for dinner?"
"Master, I'm still single. How about we become a couple?"
"Master, I'm not bad either, please consider me."
The female ghosts grew increasingly fanatical.
Chu Yu was speechless.
The old man is surprisingly popular in the ghost town; so many female ghosts want to marry him.
Faced with the female ghosts' enthusiastic confessions, Daoist Changfeng smiled awkwardly and looked in Chu Yu's direction, saying, "Excuse me, everyone, my dear disciple is here to see me. I'll go say hello to her first, and then come back to dance the square dance with everyone later."
After saying that, he pushed aside the group of female ghosts, quickly came to Chu Yu's side, and pulled her to a deserted corner.
Seeing Changfeng Daoist's smug look, Chu Yu teased, "Hey, Master, instead of fishing in the woods now, you're in Ghost City dancing in the square and picking up girls?"
Master Changfeng coughed awkwardly and explained in a serious tone, "I'm tired of fishing, so I come here occasionally to dance and change things up. As for picking up girls, that's not a thing. I'm not interested in those female ghosts."
Chu Yu thought of his alluring dance moves and complained, "He's not interested in them, yet he dances so seductively. He's losing all his integrity."
Daoist Changfeng stroked his beard and said nonchalantly, "Since we're all ghosts now, we should be carefree. Do whatever makes us happy. As for integrity, can you eat it? Why bother with it?"
Chu Yu: "..."
The old man's skin is getting thicker and thicker.
Chu Yu stopped arguing with him and asked directly, "Master, did you foresee that Fu Zishuo would suffer this calamity, and that's why you specially made the longevity lock to sell to Old Master Fu?"
Daoist Changfeng didn't hide anything from her and frankly said, "Yes, I met Fu Zishuo three years ago, and I foresaw that he would face this calamity. That day, I met Old Master Fu in Ghost City, and when we were chatting, he mentioned Fu Zishuo, which reminded me of the fortune-telling I did for him three years ago."
I did some quick calculations and realized you could avert disaster for him, so I arranged this whole thing.
Chu Yu raised an eyebrow: "Then why didn't you tell me beforehand?"
Taoist Changfeng explained, "Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed; how could I tell you in advance?"
"Okay, Fu Zishuo is unconscious right now, and I can't find anything wrong with his examination. What should we do now?"
Chu Yu asked with concern.
Daoist Changfeng explained meaningfully: "The reason he is unconscious is because someone placed a seal in his body when he was born."
The seal suppressed his emotions, causing him to become emotionally detached as he grew up, reluctant to communicate with others, and closed off in his own world, which led to his diagnosis of autism.
Some time ago, someone took away one of his souls and one of his spirits, triggering the seal and causing the seal's power to increase, which weakened his body.
Later, he was lured by the water ghost to become a substitute, which damaged his body. He couldn't withstand the power of the seal, causing his five senses to be sealed, preventing him from regaining consciousness. To wake him up, the power of the seal must be weakened, allowing his five senses to recover.
Chu Yu looked surprised.
There was actually a seal inside Fu Zishuo's body, which she did not detect.
Master Changfeng noticed her confusion and comforted her, "That seal was set up by someone with extremely powerful abilities. It's normal that you can't sense it with your current cultivation level."
Chu Yu asked in bewilderment, "Who exactly placed the seal on him, turning him into an emotionally deprived autistic patient at such a young age? That's too much."
Daoist Changfeng stroked his beard and said with a distant gaze, "Perhaps, the other party placed a seal on Fu Zishuo's body not to harm him, but simply to protect him."
Chu Yu's gaze darkened slightly as she thought of Fu Zishuo's background. His birth mother's identity was unknown, his birth father died at sea, and he was sealed at birth, indicating that his birth mother's identity was not simple.
Daoist Changfeng took out a small bottle from his pocket and handed it to her: "There are three pills in this small bottle. Give him one every day. The pills can suppress the seal in his body. He will wake up in three days, and the emotions that were suppressed before will also be restored. After that, put that longevity lock on him. The spiritual jade in the longevity lock can suppress the seal in his body for a long time, allowing him to grow up healthily."
