"Sis! Help me!"
Seeing Feng Meng's disheveled appearance, Yue Jiuli was also stunned, because she did not expect that she had only gone out for a short while, and when she came back, Feng Meng had become like this.
"My goodness, what are you doing? Are you tearing the house apart?"
Yue Jiuli looked at the mess on the ground, then shot a green beam of light at the black shadow that was still chasing Feng Meng. The shadow then turned into a paper figure in a flash, and it was a paper figure cut out of black paper.
"Huh? Is this a paper figure? And why is it black?"
As soon as Feng Meng saw the black shadow being subdued by Yue Jiuli, he immediately squatted down and picked up the black paper figure. He turned to Yue Jiuli and asked, "Sister, what is this...?"
Yue Jiuli had already climbed in through the window. After landing, she called out to those behind her, "Come in~"
Then, two more people climbed in through the window, a man and a woman. Yes, they were Yue Jiuling and Ya Zi. They had followed Yue Jiuli back, and they had climbed back through the window as well.
After handing over the captured zombies to the K1 department personnel, Yue Jiuling and Ya Zi followed Yue Jiuli here.
Yue Jiuli looked at the paper figure in Feng Meng's hand and said, "Tsk~ So this is what it is. Look at you, being chased like this by a paper figure, aren't you ashamed?"
When Feng Meng saw the two strangers come in, he wanted to ask what was going on, but after Yue Jiuli said that, he immediately retorted: "Me? What's so shameful about me? Even if it's a paper doll, it's not an ordinary paper doll. Look how powerful it is. Isn't it normal that I was chased and couldn't beat it?"
"Alright, alright, it's normal for you to be chased. I won't say any more to you. Let me see the bamboo first."
Because Yue Jiuling was there, Yue Jiuli stopped joking with Feng Meng and directly asked him to bring the bamboo over. As soon as she said this, Feng Meng immediately became nervous!
He clung tightly to the bamboo, crying, and said, "No way, how come you're fake too?"
"Fake my foot! What's with all this talk of truth and falsehood? I'm the real deal, okay?"
Yue Jiuli was a little confused when she heard this. She said, "What are you doing? When did I have a fake one?"
"Yes, that was it just now. It transformed into your appearance and asked me for bamboo!"
Feng Meng hugged the bamboo and backed away from Yue Jiuli, saying, "Luckily, my sister is smart. She warned me to be careful before she left. I didn't expect that an imposter would come!"
Yue Jiuling originally came back with Yue Jiuli to see the bamboo, but seeing the current situation, she said impatiently, "Hey, can't you hurry up?"
Feng Meng was already wary of Yue Jiuli, but when he saw another 'Yue Jiuli' by the window, he panicked even more. He was almost crying from fright: "Oh no, you guys, you actually came twice! Sister! Come back and save me!"
"Shut up! I am Yue Jiuli, what the hell are you talking about, having two of me? What are you trying to do?"
Enraged and amused by Feng Meng's loud shouting, Yue Jiuli went to the wall, turned on the light, and said, "Did you just encounter someone who transformed into me and tried to steal the bamboo?"
"It wasn't robbery, it was deception. It was this paper figure that tried to trick me out of my bamboo, but I didn't fall for it, so when it couldn't trick me, it just tried to kill me."
After turning on the lights, Feng Meng wasn't as scared anymore, but he still looked at Yue Jiuli and Yue Jiuling with great vigilance. After all, the scene just now had left a deep impression on him, so he was now like someone who had been bitten by a snake once and was afraid of grass ropes for ten years.
"Fine, if you don't want to give it to us, then don't. Just hold it up high and show it to us."
Hearing Feng Meng say this, Yue Jiuli stopped pressuring him to give her the bamboo, and simply asked him to hold it a little higher for them to see.
Upon hearing this request, Feng Meng agreed, knowing which things he wouldn't dare directly steal from the bamboo: "Alright, that's acceptable."
Seeing the bamboo being taken out, Yue Jiuling and Ya Zi approached to take a look. However, the more Yue Jiuling looked, the worse her expression became. Finally, she pouted and said, "Fine, it is indeed damaged. I don't dare to separate you two so easily. Forget it, you can decide for yourself."
"Hmm, I knew it! I have no choice but to go back now."
Upon hearing Yue Jiuling's words, Yue Jiuli immediately said, "But don't worry, Jiuling, I will try my best to heal it as quickly as possible and then go back."
"Emmm, this is the only way for now."
Yue Jiuling now knows about Yue Jiuli's situation, so she has no choice but to hold off on letting Yue Jiuli return to her side so soon, because Yue Jiuli is still a 'bamboo spirit' and cannot leave the bamboo for the time being.
While they were merging and exchanging information, Yue Jiuling already knew about it. The reason was simple: when Yue Jiuli's soul was damaged, she hid inside the bamboo's body to recuperate. However, since the bamboo had just become a spirit, Yue Jiuli unknowingly took over the bamboo spirit's body and spiritual power. In the end, even the bamboo spirit's consciousness was forced into a deep sleep.
Therefore, if Yue Jiuli wants to return to Yue Jiuling's side, she not only needs to nourish her own soul, but also restore Yue Jiuling's spiritual power and consciousness. Otherwise, she will be unable to leave the bamboo and will have to continue being a bamboo spirit.
