Jiang Yue spent a long time coaxing Lu Jingnian to sleep.
However, Lu Jingnian did not sleep soundly, and kept holding Jiang Yue's hand tightly.
Jiang Yue stayed with him the whole time so that he could sleep better.
Shen Min and Yao Hua knew that Lu Jingnian hadn't rested for a long time, so they didn't bother them.
Lu Jingnian didn't open his eyes until evening when the young monks from the temple came to call them for a vegetarian meal.
After sleeping all day, Lu Jingnian felt much better.
Jiang Yue went to fetch water and came back to shave him.
"No matter what happens next time, you have to take good care of yourself. You have no idea that when I woke up and saw you, I thought I saw an old man."
Lu Jingnian couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.
He wrapped his arms around Jiang Yue's waist from behind and asked him in a wronged voice, "If I really become an old man, will you stop liking me?"
He hadn't forgotten that Jiang Yue had said the reason she was attracted to him was because of his face.
Lu Jingnian secretly rejoiced for several days at the time.
"That's definitely impossible. If you become an old man, then I'll definitely be an old woman by then."
Jiang Yue washed her hands, turned around, hugged Lu Jingnian's neck, and gently bit the corner of his mouth.
"Sweetie, let's go eat."
Lu Jingnian nodded obediently, being extremely compliant.
When Jiang Yue and Lu Jingnian came out of the room, Shen Min and Yao Hua were already waiting outside.
Seeing Jiang Yue come out, Yao Hua immediately ran over and grabbed her hand, "Yueyue, are you alright? That imposter hasn't come looking for trouble again, has he?"
Yao Hua stayed with Shen Min all day, but she was worried about Jiang Yue the whole time.
She was terrified that the imposter would come back, and at the same time, she blamed herself for being so stupid. She had been by Jiang Yue's side for so many years and hadn't even realized that the imposter had taken over her body.
"Don't worry, I feel fine now."
Jiang Yue gently patted Yao Hua's hand, then walked up to Shen Min and hugged her tightly, "Mom, I'm sorry."
"Silly child, you did nothing wrong. You don't need to apologize to your mother. As long as you can come back, that's all that matters."
Shen Min hugged Jiang Yue, and her heart ached as she thought about what the imposter had said about her daughter's suffering in the orphanage.
"Don't be afraid, Yueyue. Even if it costs me my life, I will never let you leave us again."
She was determined to keep her daughter, whom she had longed to see return, no matter the cost.
After dinner, Shen Min pulled Jiang Yue aside to talk.
Lu Jingnian knew that Shen Min had a lot to say to Jiang Yue, so he gave them some space and took the opportunity to go out himself.
He went to find Master Qing first.
When Lu Jingnian came to find Liaoqing, Liaoqing was chanting sutras in his meditation room and had not closed the door.
Upon seeing Lu Jingnian approach, Liao Qing paused in tapping the wooden fish. "Benefactor Lu, is there something you need from this humble monk?"
"Young master, I'd like to ask you, how long can those prayer beads help my wife?"
Liao Qing had previously said that the Buddhist beads could only temporarily keep Yueyue safe. What will happen to Jiang Yue after that?
"It's hard to say. Without external interference, the Dharma teachings can last for two years, but if there are external factors that interfere..."
It could be a year, six months, a few months... or even a month or a day.
Liao Qing gave a serious answer.
What kind of external interference?
Lu Jingnian asked.
"this……"
Liao Qing thought about it carefully and said to Lu Jingnian, "There are all kinds of laws in the human world, and any one of them is an external interference."
For example, if someone knows Jiang's birth date and time, and uses that information to their advantage, it could also affect Jiang.
Or perhaps, her hair, her nails... her blood...
Anything that uses these things to harm people is called witchcraft.
Evil magic?
Lu Jingnian used to not believe in these things.
However, after Jiang Yue's body was possessed by someone, Lu Jingnian now firmly believes in these things.
"Is there any way to prevent this from happening?"
Lu Jingnian asked.
They are just ordinary people and don't understand any of this.
Of all the people they know, only Liao Qing understands these things, so Lu Jingnian needs to ask in more detail. Only by understanding can he take precautions.
"As long as no one gets their hands on the things I just mentioned, those who want to harm Ms. Jiang will naturally have no way to do so."
"What should we do if someone already has her birth date and time?"
Lu Jingnian asked again.
Jiang Yue's hair and blood are difficult for others to obtain, but her birth time can be found out, especially since hospitals have records now. As long as someone is determined to investigate, they can always find out.
"this……"
Liao Qing thought for a moment, then turned around and wrote down an address for Lu Jingnian.
“My Buddhist skills are too weak to help you resolve this. The person at this address is a close friend of my late master. He has profound Taoist knowledge and may be able to help you.”
The address on the paper is only an hour's drive from the temple.
Thank you.
Lu Jingnian planned to drive to find the highly skilled Taoist master that Qing had mentioned in a little while.
Seeing that Lu Jingnian was about to leave, Liaoqing suddenly called out to him and chanted a Buddhist prayer.
"Amitabha."
“Benefactor Lu, although my Buddhist knowledge is limited, I am very accurate at reading people’s faces. Judging from your face, you may face a life-threatening calamity. You should know what kind of danger you will encounter.”
This humble monk advises you, benefactor, not to take the risk.
"Thank you for reminding me, young master."
Lu Jingnian smiled and nodded. He guessed what the death calamity Liao Qing mentioned was, but he had already promised that person and had no other choice.
"Young master, please keep this a secret for me. Don't let my wife know about this. She just got back, and I don't want her to worry about me."
"This humble monk understands."
Liao Qing nodded obediently.
Lu Jingnian quickly left Qing's meditation room and went back to find Jiang Yue.
When he returned, Jiang Yue was still talking with Shen Min and Yao Hua. The three of them were laughing very happily, and he didn't know what they were talking about.
Lu Jingnian hadn't even reached the door when he heard their laughter.
After knocking and entering, Lu Jingnian greeted Shen Min first.
"mom."
Then he said to Jiang Yue, "Yueyue, I just went to see Master Qing and confirmed with him that although the Buddhist beads can help Yueyue come back, it can only help Yueyue temporarily. If someone wants to use Yueyue's birth date and time to harm her, the Buddhist beads can only help her once or twice, and will soon lose their effect."
He gave me the address of a highly accomplished Taoist master, a close friend of Master Huiyuan, who might be able to help us. I'm thinking of driving over there now to see if this master has any solutions.
"I'll go with you."
Jiang Yue immediately stood up and spoke after hearing this.
