The little girl who suddenly darted to the bedside startled the nurse, who quickly raised her hand to block Nan Yuanman and shouted, "Whose child is this! Take her away right now!"
The middle-aged man was also startled and rushed over to stop Nan Yuanman: "Hey! What are you doing, kid!"
Nan Yuanman is short and had trained with Grandpa Nan in the countryside, so she is exceptionally agile. The nurse and the middle-aged man couldn't catch her for a while.
Nan Yuanman was anxious, her round face turning red: "Hey! Don't stop me! If you stop me again, that auntie will be in danger!"
The nurse was furious with the brat: "You're talking nonsense..."
Before she could finish speaking, another nurse noticed that the woman lying on the hospital bed suddenly turned bluish-purple, her body convulsed violently, her eyes rolled back, and her breathing became extremely rapid.
Nurse:"!!!"
"Dr. Tao! The patient is in an emergency!!"
Dr. Tao, who was explaining the precautions to Yao Xianglu, rushed over, with Yao Xianglu following closely behind.
Dr. Tao examined the woman's pupils and saw that they were already dilating. He immediately sat up on the bed and began artificial respiration: "Quick! Back to the emergency room!"
Yao Xianglu's legs went weak, and she almost knelt on the ground, her expression pale and panicked: "Mom..."
Nan Yuanman was frantic, pacing back and forth in front of the sickbed: "This is no use! This is no use! Let me up! Let me up!"
The middle-aged man got annoyed and shoved her, saying, "You brat! Don't cause trouble here!"
Caught off guard, Nan Yuanman stumbled backward a few steps, but Yao Xianglu caught her back in time, preventing her from falling flat on her back.
"Kid, stop fooling around." Yao Xianglu hugged Nan Yuanman tightly and said in a dry voice.
Nan Yuanman turned around and saw Yao Xianglu. Her eyes lit up, and she quickly grabbed Yao's hand, saying, "Big sister, I can save Auntie! They can't save her like this!"
Yao Xianglu didn't believe Nan Yuanman at first. After all, Nan Yuanman was only five years old, and the fact that she could say such things was purely due to watching too many cartoons.
But the moment the bed was wheeled back into the emergency room, a nurse cried out in alarm, "The patient has stopped breathing!"
Yao Xianglu's mind went blank for a moment, her hands holding Nan Yuanman trembled, and she fell helplessly to the ground.
Nan Yuanman was extremely anxious and clapped Yao Xianglu's hand vigorously: "Big sister, let me try! I promise I can save Auntie!"
Looking into the clear, bright eyes of the child in her arms, Yao Xianglu acted impulsively and ran over with Nan Yuanman in her arms, placing her on the hospital bed.
Dr. Tao, who was still kneeling on the hospital bed performing emergency treatment, suddenly saw everything go black, and a child darted over from the side, slapping the patient's forehead with something.
Dr. Tao was shocked and shouted, "What are you doing!"
The nurse next to her quickly reached out to take Nan Yuanman away, but she was not as fast as Nan Yuanman. By the time she took the person away, the small coffin in Nan Yuanman's hand had already been placed on the woman's forehead.
Dr. Tao quickly observed the patient's condition, and what happened shocked him.
The patient, who had been bluish-purple, foaming at the mouth, and had stopped breathing, suddenly took a deep breath. The terrifying bluish-purple color on his face was rapidly fading, and his complexion quickly returned to normal.
Dr. Tao: "!!!"
Nurses: "!!!"
The middle-aged man who rushed over: "!!!"
Desperate measures, Yao Xianglu exclaimed: "!!!"
Everyone stared in shock at the child being lifted up by the armpits by the nurse. Nan Yuanman wiped the sweat from her forehead and breathed a sigh of relief.
Thank goodness, I made it in time.
This aunt almost suffocated from the ghostly aura.
Dr. Tao squeezed his eyes hard and rubbed them, but the small coffin stuck to the patient's forehead still didn't disappear.
Dr. Tao: "..."
His materialism, which he had adhered to for nearly forty years, was shattered by Shui Lingling just like that?
The nurse was also dumbfounded. Looking at the woman whose vital signs were gradually stabilizing, she asked Dr. Tao, "...Dr. Tao, should we send her to the emergency room?"
Dr. Tao rubbed his slightly aching temples, got off the hospital bed, and said with a buzzing in his head, "Send him to the observation room for one night. If there are no problems, he can be transferred to a regular ward."
As he spoke, his gaze involuntarily fell on the small coffin on the patient's forehead. He hesitated for a moment, then looked down at the well-behaved Nan Yuanman: "Little friend, what... is that? How did you do that just now?"
Nan Yuanman looked at him innocently, grinning foolishly, "I don't know either, hehehe..."
Dr. Tao: "..." Did she really think he couldn't see through her act?
Forget it, it's someone else's secret. He shouldn't pry. Prosperity, democracy, civility, harmony...
Dr. Tao followed the patient to the observation room while muttering to himself, and Nan Yuanman followed along with his short legs.
Before entering the observation room, she took Xiao Hong off Yao Xianglu's mother's forehead. As soon as she turned her head, she met Yao Xianglu's bright eyes.
She excitedly grabbed Nan Yuanman's chubby little hands: "Little boy, how did you do that? Why... when you put the little coffin on my mom's forehead, she was saved?"
A thought that had shattered her worldview of over twenty years began to surface in Yao Xianglu's mind. She lowered her voice and asked, "Could it be... that my mother is... haunted?"
“There are no ghosts, but there is a ghostly aura,” Nan Yuanman replied, putting the small coffin into his bag.
"Ghostly aura?" Yao Xianglu was taken aback.
“It’s not just that auntie who has it, you and he have it too, it’s just that the ghost aura on that auntie is more intense.” Nan Yuanman pointed with her little finger at the middle-aged man who was squatting behind Yao Xianglu, eavesdropping.
The middle-aged man instantly exploded, jumping to his feet in panic: "What? I have it too?"
"Lulu, did your mom bring something back from outside?"
He couldn't help but complain, "I told her to stop going to those weird fortune tellers and stop putting up talismans at home. Now look what happened, her fate has been ruined by them!"
Yao Xianglu gritted her teeth and growled, "Shut up! Didn't you hear what she said? There are no ghosts!"
Nan Yuanman glanced at the middle-aged man and said, "People can become tainted by ghostly energy. One reason is that you've attracted wandering ghosts from outside. Another reason is that there's something wrong with your family's graves. People in the underworld are messing with you."
The middle-aged man and Yao Xianglu were both stunned: "What...does this mean?"
“It’s because there’s something wrong with the ancestral graves. The people below can’t live in peace. They have no merit or money to send to their descendants in dreams, so they’re relentlessly tormenting you in the underworld.” Nan Yuanman said, “That aunt has the heaviest ghostly aura, which means the people below resent her the most.”
Nan Yuanman asked Yao Xianglu, "When did Auntie start getting sick? Have you all been having a hard time lately?"
Yao Xianglu looked dazed: "My mother started getting sick a year ago, and ever since she got sick, I've had a really tough time..."
She almost took her own life with a packet of rat poison.
This year was truly a year of calamity for Yao Xianglu.
