As for why Ye Ming didn't take action himself, the unlucky guy didn't dare to even think about it until he quietly returned to Li Qichen's body, at which point he dared to ponder the question.
Ye Ming looked at the sky outside the window. The crescent moon, appearing and disappearing intermittently, seemed to be monitoring the entire earth. As if disturbed by the moonlight, Ye Ming waved his hand, and a layer of dark clouds concealed the moon.
"One, two, three already, the rest should be coming soon, right? This little girl is quite interesting; all these evil spirits have some connection to her. Hehe..."
The night passed quickly, and as people woke up, the message that the school was closed for the holidays was pinned to the top of everyone's parents' group chat.
Although no one knows the exact reason, many parents still speculate that it may be related to the flu. After all, with so many children absent, the school is indeed unable to conduct normal teaching. The only ones who are happy about this are the children.
School's out for break!
Early in the morning, Li Muhao's screams rang out in the Li family compound, and a moment later, the shouts of the fifth brother, Li Mufeng, also echoed in the courtyard.
"Third Brother, shall we go out for a big meal?"
The group was unaware of their grandfather's serious illness and didn't realize there was anything wrong with their shouting. However, soon, voices reprimanding Li Muhao and Li Mufeng came from inside the villa.
Thinking about the ghost-slaying mission tonight, Xiao Yanbao first went to see his grandfather and found that he was no different from usual, but he had been lying in bed to continue spreading the news of his serious illness.
Then Xiao Yanbao arrived at her uncle's villa and happened to see her aunt scolding her third brother, Li Muhao. When Li Muhao saw Xiao Yanbao, he immediately smiled and said goodbye to his mother. Without thinking of anything else, he picked up Xiao Yanbao and ran to the study.
"Yanbao, guess what happened last night?"
Xiao Yanbao was unaware that the Dream Eater had entered the dreams of the Li family members last night. Seeing his third brother's excited expression, he could only pretend to be curious and ask.
"Third brother, what happened?"
"I saw Ultraman! It really is! Dyna, Tiga, and Mother of Ultra!"
When Xiao Yanbao heard her third brother mention Ultraman again, she knew he must be treating his dream as reality, but seeing that he was getting into it, she couldn't bear to interrupt him.
After all, I still have to teach him some ghost-catching techniques tonight, so I might as well let him have some fun for a while longer.
More than twenty minutes later, Li Muhao licked his lips, still seemingly unsatisfied, and then spoke:
"Yanbao, did you call me to teach me magic? I'm not afraid of ghosts anymore, and Sister Wan Ning even pre-ordered an Ultraman from me!"
Xiao Yanbao was speechless when he heard Li Muhao's words, and then patted Li Muhao on the shoulder.
"Third brother, how many Ultraman have you already reserved? If there aren't that many wild Ultraman, do you think people will come after you, especially Sister Wan Ning, who might..."
Xiao Yanbao deliberately left the rest unsaid, leaving it for Li Muhao to guess.
"Then what should I do?"
With a pained expression, Li Muhao turned to Xiao Yanbao for help. Xiao Yanbao then whispered in Li Muhao's ear:
"Tonight, Third Brother can come with me to catch ghosts. If you learn quickly enough, you'll be able to catch more Ultraman."
"Great! Great! Where shall we go to catch ghosts?"
When Li Muhao heard that he could go ghost hunting with Xiao Yanbao, he immediately became excited and even started rubbing his hands together in anticipation.
Seeing that he had successfully piqued his third brother's interest, Xiao Yanbao pointed to the ground and said:
"In our home!"
Li Muhao exclaimed "Ah!" and then pointed out the window, speaking hesitantly:
"Our home? We're not going to kidnap Sister Wan Ning, are we?"
For a moment, Li Muhao even considered persuading Xiao Yanbao to let Li Wanning go.
"You're overthinking it, we're catching other ghosts!"
"Other ghosts?"
Looking at the bright sunshine outside the window, Li Muhao scratched his head in confusion, then whispered:
“Do we have other ghosts in our house? Are they Wan Ning’s sisters? Should we go out and catch them? After all, the ghosts in our house might already be familiar neighbors with Wan Ning. It wouldn’t be good if Wan Ning got upset.”
Xiao Yanbao stared blankly at her third brother, Li Muhao, who seemed to be thinking of Li Wanning. At that moment, she really wanted to go back and ask Li Wanning how she had scared Li Muhao that night.
Then, Xiao Yanbao shook his head vigorously to shake the thoughts out of his mind.
"Some ghosts from outside will come to our house tonight. We're here to eliminate these outside ghosts!"
Li Muhao simply said "Oh," and Xiao Yanbao was about to say a few words to his third brother when his third brother nervously spoke again:
"Are these outsider ghosts here to attack Sister Wan Ning? Are we trying to eliminate these outsider ghosts to save Sister Wan Ning?"
Actually, Li Muhao was just worried that he wouldn't be able to catch that many Ultraman in the future. He insisted on giving Xiao Yanbao and his parents theirs, but he could owe his second brother's. If he didn't catch the fourth one, he wouldn't give Wan Ning's to him.
If I successfully help Sister Wan Ning this time, I won't have to worry about her scaring me anymore.
Xiao Yanbao rolled her eyes at Li Muhao and reached out to touch her third brother's forehead.
"Those ghosts are here for you tonight. If you don't want me to take you to eliminate them, then you can face them yourself."
Li Muhao was startled by Xiao Yanbao's words. Just as he was about to speak again, he saw Xiao Yanbao pick up a pen and slam it on the table.
She stomped her foot hard, crossed her arms over her chest, and let out a soft, cute but fierce snort.
"Are you going to learn the magic of exorcising ghosts or not?"
Li Muhao nodded quickly, then sat down on the stool opposite Xiao Yanbao, covering his mouth as he looked at Xiao Yanbao.
“I’ll say it, you write it down! Tonight you should try reciting these incantations to the ghost.”
Xiao Yanbao didn't know how to teach Li Muhao the ability to catch ghosts, but the incantations for ghost-catching spells would definitely be useful. It would be better to have Third Brother shout the incantations at the ghosts first, so that he could become familiar with these spells and also build up his courage.
"Okay, I will definitely try my best to remember it!"
Seeing Li Muhao sitting obediently opposite him with a serious expression, Xiao Yanbao was slightly satisfied this time, and then recited the incantation from memory bit by bit.
However, most of the time, Li Muhao would scratch his head while secretly glancing at Xiao Yanbao out of the corner of his eye. When he saw that Xiao Yanbao wasn't looking at him, he would quickly start writing.
It turned out that there were many characters that Li Muhao couldn't write at all. The places that Li Muhao secretly covered with his hand were covered with pinyin, and he even marked the tones on the pinyin.
At this moment, Li Muhao kept regretting why he didn't know more characters. Fortunately, Xiao Yanbao did not check Li Muhao's records. Otherwise, Li Muhao would definitely not dare to mention anything related to writing or learning in front of Xiao Yanbao in the future.
