Yang Jinchuan held Tuantuan in his arms, looking at the paper figure on the ground, feeling both fear and anger.
The bodyguards were also completely shocked. They had been monitoring Zhao Guihua and Gou Dashan's every move, keeping them constantly busy and hungry.
But now, how did they turn into paper figures?
Is this a fantasy movie being filmed?
Is it a big-budget horror movie?
The head of the bodyguards, named Ah Wu, immediately explained, "Mr. Yang, we don't know what's going on either. We monitor them every day, and we really don't know what's happening."
Tuantuan climbed down from Yang Jinchuan's arms, and Gu Jinghuai and she walked forward together to pick up the paper figures on the ground.
As Gu Jinghuai examined the paper figure closely, he felt that the style of the paper figure looked somewhat familiar.
Tuantuan: "This looks a bit like something I drew."
Tuantuan was stunned, but she really had never drawn these two paper figures.
She drew it, and she remembered it very clearly.
Gu Jinghuai examined it carefully and pointed to the black mark in the lower right corner of the paper figure, saying, "You didn't draw it. Paper figures you draw wouldn't have a mark on the bottom."
Tuantuan nodded: "Brother Jinghuai, you are very observant."
Gu Jinghuai picked up the two paper figures and chanted a spell: "Chase!"
Then, the paper figure flew up, and Gu Jinghuai followed it forward.
Tuantuan, Yang Jinchuan, and their bodyguards followed behind Gu Jinghuai.
The paper figure circled the courtyard but never flew out.
It seems there's an invisible barrier preventing the paper figure from flying out.
The matter has stalled here, with no further progress.
Yang Jinchuan glanced at the bodyguards beside him, whose pupils dilated and mouths were agape in shock, and said coldly, "Get out."
It's understandable that Gu Jinghuai has psychic abilities, but he doesn't want others to know that Tuantuan is proficient in Yin and Yang; he doesn't want to cause trouble for his daughter.
Although the bodyguards wanted to continue watching, their lives were more important, so they quickly went outside to stand.
The less you know, the greater your chances of survival.
Tuantuan bit her finger and dripped a drop of blood onto the paper figure.
The paper figure set sail again, only to crash through the barrier and instantly turn to ash.
The second paper figure also failed to leave the courtyard before turning to ash.
This scene stunned Gu Jinghuai and shocked Tuantuan: "Why is my blood not working?"
Yang Jinchuan was also surprised that the paper figure disappeared on the spot; it was terrifying!
“My dear daughter, it’s good this way. It breaks my heart to see you bite your finger. You’re so thin and small, how much food will it take to make up for those two drops of blood?”
Yang Jinchuan was heartbroken; he wished he could give his own blood to his daughter.
"Dad, Tuantuan is okay. But now the blood is useless, what should we do if we can't find Xiaomei?"
Tuantuan was filled with worry, fearing that something might happen to Xiaomei.
After Li Xiaoxiao left, Tuantuan worried about Xiaomei, fearing that one day she would leave her side just like Li Xiaoxiao.
Tuantuan thought of a place: "Dad, let's go to the back mountain."
That place was where Tuantuan first met Xiaomei.
If you can't find Xiaomei, you can ask other friends.
Yang Jinchuan, carrying Tuantuan, led Gu Jinghuai and the bodyguards to the back mountain.
Their appearance caused a huge uproar in Xiaoxigou.
The villagers gathered together and whispered among themselves, the fighting power of the older women was as formidable as ever.
"Dog Egg Milk, didn't you say that Tuantuan would definitely not be loved by her biological parents? Look at what Tuantuan is wearing now, she looks as good as a star on TV."
“I think Tuantuan is quite valued. The clothes she’s wearing are from the same brand that my grandson’s girlfriend bought. She showed them off for a year after she bought them.”
Dog Egg Milk curled its lip in disdain: "Why make things so easy for a little girl? She's not a boy."
"Oh my, Gou Dan Nai, do you expect him to be like your grandson, picking his nose and putting it in his mouth all day long? Tuan Tuan is pampered and waited on hand and foot by bodyguards and servants whenever he goes out. When will your grandson ever live such a life?"
Dog Egg spat in a childish voice, "Aunt Wang, do you believe I'll tear your mouth apart! Let you spout nonsense, who saw our Dog Egg eating boogers!"
Aunt Wang, hands on her hips, said, "Everyone in our village saw it. You can ask them if you don't believe me!"
"Yes, we all saw it."
Dog Egg couldn't save face and got so angry that he started tearing at Aunt Wang.
She wanted to tear Wang Dama's mouth apart, but Wang Dama grabbed her sparse hair and yanked hard, pulling out a handful of hair.
The two were tearing at each other, and the scene was chaotic.
...
Yang Jinchuan carried Tuantuan to the back mountain.
There are nameless graves here, and some graves that are pointed out by the group even though they don't have graves.
"This is the one-eyed uncle, this is the uncle with only one arm, and this is where Aunt Big Red Flower lives. She said she used to be the top courtesan, and many rich and noble young men patronized her business."
As Tuantuan introduced them one by one, Yang Jinchuan's lips twitched when he heard about Aunt Big Red Flower.
Isn't this the top courtesan of the brothel?
Tuantuan was very confused. She asked in her childish voice, "Daddy, what does 'top performer' mean? Does being a top performer mean you can make money? Auntie Big Red Flower is so amazing!"
Yang Jinchuan: "..."
Let's get over this problem as soon as possible.
"Auntie Big Red Flower is indeed very capable, and it hasn't been easy for her either. But Tuantuan, with your dad around, you don't need to do any work. The money your dad earns is enough for you to live a carefree life."
Looking into her father's loving eyes, Tuantuan took his hand and glanced at Aunt Big Red Flower's grave.
"Auntie Big Red Flower, this is Tuantuan's dad. He's very good to Tuantuan, so you can rest assured."
Because Aunt Big Red Flower often says that not every parent loves their child.
Tuantuan's biological parents are not necessarily good parents.
What kind of good parents would sell their child to such beastly people as Zhao Guihua and Gou Dashan?
Tuantuan said this in order to put Aunt Dahonghua's mind at ease.
But after she's been talking for so long, why hasn't the ghost appeared?
Gu Jinghuai sensed the eerie atmosphere around him and shook his head: "The ghosts aren't here."
Tuantuan had a bad feeling. None of her friends were here, and Xiaomei was nowhere to be found. Something terrible was about to happen to her.
Tuantuan was very worried. She looked around but did not see the familiar ghost.
"Dad, Brother Jinghuai, they're not here..."
Tuantuan was very disappointed and felt very sad.
The little dumpling sat on a stool on the stone next to her. This was her usual spot, and the stone was polished by the ghosts so that it wouldn't be too uncomfortable for her to sit on.
The little dumpling sighed, a cloud of worry hanging over her fair face.
Nearby blades of grass and wildflowers stretched out a tendril, clinging to Tuan Tuan, as if silently comforting her, or as if greeting her.
Gu Jinghuai was still in shock when he noticed something wrapped around his fingers...
