The man slowly raised his head like a snail curled up in its shell, and looked at Liang Meng with wet eyes full of hope.
"real?"
"must."
Liang Meng raised his hand and patted the man's shoulder. The protruding bones on his shoulder poked his palm and it hurt.
This poor child has been tortured to such a thin state.
Fearing that there would be further mistakes due to his spiritual power, Liang Meng did not focus on solving the man's sleepwalking problem, but directly cut the root of the problem to prevent future troubles.
She wrote a talisman with her fingertip blood, gave it to the man and told him to stick it on his bed.
The man took it carefully and looked at Liang Meng in confusion.
The long-tormented heart was not sure for a moment that this small talisman could really relieve its pain.
"Don't worry. Put this talisman on the bed. At night, no matter how hard you try, you won't be able to leave the bed."
The man's face, which had been wrinkled like a bitter melon, finally showed a genuine smile.
He was so excited that he wanted to kneel down in front of Liang Meng again, but Liang Meng stopped him by holding his arm.
"Once this talisman is applied, it will disappear between the beds. But don't worry, the previous situation will never happen again."
"Then" the man thought of something and said hesitantly.
"Excuse me, Master, how should I get up in the morning?"
Liang Meng couldn't help laughing out loud. This man's face looked completely mature and reserved, but how could he be so cute and straightforward inside?
"Don't worry. This spell only works at night. The power will dissipate during the day, so you can get up whenever you want."
Hearing this, the man was relieved.
He clenched the talisman tightly in his hands, as if he were holding a rare treasure. He straightened his body and bowed respectfully to Liang Meng.
"Thank you, Master. Thank you, Master."
Liang Meng's face turned slightly red. She looked at the man and waved her hand, looking as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
"Uh...Excuse me, your illness...uh..."
The matter was resolved perfectly, and the curious hall master naturally could not miss the opportunity to gossip.
The man saw Liang Meng hesitant, but his eyes were full of curiosity and doubt. He soon realized that the master wanted to hear the origin of this strange disease.
"Master, you don't know that I have this terrible disease, not because... uh... it's not because I have contracted a disease, but because I have been cursed."
Thinking about what he had done because of the disease, the man looked embarrassed and uneasy, and kept pulling his hands in front of him.
"curse?"
Liang Mengxing's eyes widened, her curiosity aroused to the highest point.
Obviously, there is a story here.
However, how much hatred and resentment must one have to cast such a disgusting and cruel curse on someone.
"Why would I curse you?"
The man's brows furrowed slightly, his eyes becoming distant and vague. Clearly lost in memory...
"When I was very young, my grandfather and my father were just as abnormal as I am now. It's just that I was too young to understand what was happening."
"When I grew up, my grandfather and father's symptoms never disappeared. The strangest thing was my mother. She would always look at me and sigh. When I asked her what happened, she would always shake her head silently and refuse to tell me anything. If I pressed her too hard, she would just cry. Later, I didn't dare to ask anymore."
"My father told me about the curse before he died. My grandfather and mother had already passed away at that time. He told me that the men of our clan, upon reaching adulthood, must bear the curse that was imposed a thousand years ago."
"A curse from thousands of years ago?"
Liang Meng was slightly stunned.
"Yes, Master."
The man looked at Liang Meng and nodded, then clenched the talisman in his hand even tighter.
"My father told me that a thousand years ago, one of our ancestors rescued a wounded and dying fox while cutting firewood in the mountains. After returning home, he used medicine to bandage the fox's wounds, but the rest was up to fate."
