Chapter 18 Finding a Treasure



"I'm just young, not stupid. What if I help you and you still cling to my brother?"

Xiao Xinyan's clear and bright eyes revealed a clever and witty spirit. She wouldn't be foolish enough to help someone and end up not getting any benefit in return!

She lowered her eyes to look at the Baku and stated her conditions:

"So I can only start helping you after I see my brother return to normal and stop crying so much."

“Even if I help you, it’s because of my younger brother. My parents are very good to Yan Yan, and Yan Yan has to do something for them.”

If she truly has the ability to help the Baku resolve its resentment and leave its brother's side, she will do everything in her power.

She was willing to do anything for her younger brother.

Not only because she wanted to repay her parents for adopting her, but also because she loved the adorable little Langbao and got along very well with him.

"Don't worry, as long as you help me resolve the resentment within me, I can become a normal dream-eating tapir. Then I will continue to help humans devour nightmares, protect their beautiful dreams, and let them find happiness in their dreams."

The Dream Eater stared intently into Xiao Xinyan's eyes and solemnly promised.

"How can Yan Yan trust you?" Xiao Xin Yan looked at the Dream Eater with suspicion, her vigilance was very high.

"What if you keep bothering my brother?"

My little brother is still so young. Every time I see him crying like that, it breaks my heart, not to mention his parents.

"The Dream Eater clan has a rule: they cannot break their promises. If they do, their souls will wither and they will die."

The Dream Eater said with a very solemn expression, "If you don't believe me, we can sign a contract. If, after you help me dispel the resentment, I am still constantly devouring your brother's dreams, causing him endless pain and crying, then I will just kick the bucket and ascend to heaven!"

He died and ascended to heaven...

This punishment sounds pretty good.

Xiao Yanbao rolled her eyes, smiled, and finally readily agreed:

"Alright, let's sign a contract then!"

"Forehead……"

The Dream Eater has certainly learned something new; it turns out that human babies can be cunning too!

The little girl in front of it looked soft and sweet, and it thought she was an innocent and gullible cutie!

Who would have thought that she might actually be a fierce yet adorable devil...

To help her younger brother return to normal, Xiao Xinyan signed a contract with the Dream Eater—

She helped the Dream Eater dispel the resentment within him, and the Dream Eater disappeared from Xiao Langbao's side, no longer causing him any pain!

"But... how can Yan Yan help you?" Xiao Xin Yan asked, frowning.

The dream-eating tapir rested its chin on its small paws and said in a deliberately profound tone, "If I'm not mistaken, you must have a spiritual object on you that can dispel resentment, or you yourself possess the spiritual power to dispel resentment, but it hasn't awakened yet, so you don't feel anything."

Spiritual objects...

When Xiao Xinyan was driven out of the village, she took some of her mother's belongings. Apart from the black bracelet, there was nothing special.

Then there's the little rooster bracelet that Master Xu gave her.

Could it be that Master Xu imbued that little rooster bracelet with spiritual power?

That must be it. Xiao Xinyan firmly believes that the little rooster bracelet given by Master Xu has the spiritual power to dispel resentment.

It really is a treasure!

"By the way, what's the background of that cat next to you?"

The thought of that little white cat and its deep blue eyes sent chills down the Baku's spine.

Little Xinyan tilted her head slightly and replied in her childish voice, "It doesn't have any special origin. I found it by the roadside!"

The Dream Eater stared wide-eyed in disbelief, shaking its head vigorously: "Impossible! How could a cat I just picked up have such powerful spiritual energy?!"

"What spiritual power? Yan Yan doesn't quite understand what you're saying?"

The little boy blinked his eyes with a puzzled look on his face, his clear eyes revealing the unique innocence of a child.

The dream-eating tapir snorted, "If it weren't for its help, how could you have entered my dream so easily?"

"Didn't you pull me in here?" Xiao Xinyan frowned.

"It was that cat that brought you in."

The Dream Eater frowned deeply, its expression grave: "No, to be precise, it was that cat that forcibly entered my dream first. It used its Transcendental Ability to synchronize everything in my dream into your dream. In reality, it was that white cat that truly entered my dream. What you are seeing now is the scene it synchronized with you."

It rambled on and on, and Xiao Xinyan seemed to be listening attentively, but as she listened, she began to lose focus.

She focused on just one key point.

"Wow!" The little bundle of joy suddenly clapped her hands excitedly and said, "Although I still don't quite understand what you're saying, there's one thing I do understand: that kitten is super powerful, right?"

"..."

The Dream Eater was choked for a moment and nodded very reluctantly.

It's really quite powerful; at least it's a bit too much for it to handle.

Little Yanbao became even more excited, raising his two little arms high and cheering:

"This is amazing! Yan Yan has struck gold!"

...

"Yanbao, Yanbao..."

A gentle voice reached Xiao Xinyan's ears, trembling slightly with obvious sobs due to worry and fear.

"You must wake up safely! Mommy loves you, and Mommy will always be there for you..."

It was my mother's voice.

I really want to tell my mom: My little brother will be alright soon, Mom, please don't worry!

With this strong thought in mind, Xiao Xinyan, lost in her dream world, unconsciously murmured, "Mom, don't worry, little brother will definitely be safe and sound!"

When the voice reached Zhong Jingyi's ears, she was startled at first, then quickly held her daughter's little hand tightly and whispered her name in her ear again and again.

Seeing that the little one was no longer responding, Zhong Jingyi panicked and quickly called for help.

It turned out that in the early hours of the morning, Xiao Langbao had finally recovered and was sleeping peacefully when Xiao Yanbao suddenly fainted.

Moreover, his breathing became extremely weak, as if he had suddenly lost consciousness, which frightened Zhong Jingyi so much that she broke out in a cold sweat.

Fortunately, the ambulance that was supposed to pick up Langbao arrived, so Zhong Jingyi handed Langbao over to the old lady of the Li family to take care of, and she and Li Qicheng took Xiao Yanbao to the hospital where Pei Yanchuan was.

After Pei Yanchuan's efforts to save him, Xiao Yanbao's breathing returned to normal, but he remained unconscious.

As of today, Xiao Yanbao has been lying in a hospital bed, sleeping for three days and three nights...
