The old man said Tuantuan wouldn't be coming back, and Yang Jinchuan almost rushed into the painting to pull the old man out and give him a good beating.
"What nonsense are you talking about! My daughter will definitely come back! Tuantuan will definitely come back!"
Yang Jinchuan roared angrily, glaring fiercely at Grandpa Tree.
Grandpa Tree was so frightened that he hid inside the painting and wouldn't come out.
He wouldn't dare!
This was the first time he had ever seen such a violent human being; it was terrifying!
If the old man doesn't come out, no one can do anything to him.
Gu Jinghuai frowned, pulled him out of the painting, and glared at him coldly: "Tell me, what exactly do you need to do to bring Tuantuan back?"
Grandpa Tree sat on the ground, very angry: "Even if you beat me to death, I wouldn't know. She's turned into a tree, how could she come back?"
Xiaomei: [If you weren't secretly laughing, I'd believe you.]
Grandpa Tree: "..."
He then realized that Xiaomei was saying that on purpose, because he hadn't been secretly laughing at all.
Grandpa Tree: "You ghost, how dare you bully an old person like this? You have no ghostly virtues at all."
Xiaomei: [I think you're immoral, yet you have the nerve to demand that I have any moral virtues? I have all kinds of virtues, except for any moral virtues.]
Grandpa Tree was furious. These days, are ghosts so arrogant?
The Taoist priest is here, why didn't you take care of this ghost?
He simply sat on the ground, not speaking or looking at anyone, his head hanging down, as still as a large tree.
As everyone looked at the sapling, the image of Tuantuan's adorable little face invariably came to mind.
How did Tuantuan turn into a tree?
Yang Jinchuan felt as if all his strength had been drained away. He sat by the tree, reminiscing about the time he spent with Tuantuan, and murmured to himself, "Tuantuan, don't be afraid. Daddy won't go anywhere. Daddy will stay here with you. Our Tuantuan is the cutest, our Tuantuan is the most beautiful. Daddy missed two years of your growth, but from now on, Daddy will never miss another day."
Yang Jinchuan decided to sit here and stay with Tuantuan, talking to her every day and trying to wake her up.
...
When Yang Chengze learned of Tuantuan's accident, he did not tell Yang Nanqiao and Wan Yunzhi, but instead brought Yang Qixiu to the mountain.
Yang Qixiu is a doctor; he might come in handy.
Two people arrived with bodyguards, a tent, and a lot of food.
People need food to survive; I need to take care of my health so I can continue to stay with my sister.
Yang Qixiu walked around the sapling, but as a doctor, he didn't know where to begin.
Treating a patient can begin with addressing the injury; but where should one begin when treating a younger sister?
"Brother, could it be that my sister has been cursed?"
Yang Chengze: "It could be Meng Xiong! I really can't think of any other possibility besides him!"
Yang Chengze took out his phone and sent a message to Secretary Dong, instructing him to send someone to keep a close eye on the actions of everyone in the Meng family.
...
Juechen, Wangchen, Gu Jinghuai, Gu Hongwen, and Xiaomei—four people and one ghost—tried every possible method, but still couldn't find a way to awaken Tuantuan.
As night fell, Yang Jinchuan still refused to descend the mountain.
"I'm going to stay here with Tuantuan. I'm not going anywhere else."
Gu Jinghuai sat down next to her and said, "I'm here too. I want to stay with Tuantuan."
Yang Chengze and Yang Qixiu were definitely unwilling to leave, so they sat down to keep Tuantuan company.
As for Juechen and Wangchen, Tuantuan only came here because of matters concerning the Taoist temple. They couldn't sleep until they received news that Tuantuan was safe and sound.
...
The nights in the mountains are like being in an ice cellar, so cold that your teeth chatter.
Yang Qixiu and Yang Chengze pulled Yang Jinchuan into the tent and helped him change into thicker clothes.
Yang Chengze: "Dad, your health has deteriorated. Who's here to keep my sister company?"
Yang Qixiu: "Dad, your health is the foundation for seeing your sister! Please eat something first. If you don't eat and your health collapses, what will happen to your sister?"
Yang Jinchuan's eyes lit up when he mentioned his younger sister.
"You're right, I need to eat, I need to eat, I need to take good care of myself, I need to stay with Tuantuan."
Yang Jinchuan ate the cold rice in a hurry, his eyes clouded by a layer of mist, blurring his vision.
...
Meng Xiong knew someone was watching him, but he didn't care at all, because he was also watching the Yang family's every move.
His subordinates came in and respectfully reported the situation.
Upon hearing this, Meng Xiong was both surprised and excited.
"Both Yang Chengze and Yang Jinchuan went to Mingshan?"
The subordinate said, "Yes, Yang Chengze took Yang Qixiu with him when he left today. Yang Qixiu took a lot of medicine with him when he left. I suspect that something might have happened to the Yang family's child."
Meng Xiong's face lit up with joy, and he slapped the table in approval: "Great! Heaven has eyes! This child has finally gotten into trouble! While Yang Chengze is away from Beijing, I would be doing such a disservice if I didn't let the Yang family fall into chaos."
Meng Xiong instructed his men to do their work, and when he was alone in the room, he went to the secret room.
Inside the secret chamber, the yin energy was dense. Meng Xiong formed hand seals and summoned several fierce ghosts. He absorbed the ghostly energy from them and immediately felt much lighter.
Meng Xiong coldly rebuked, "There's not enough resentment!"
“Master, please calm down. The capital city is very peaceful recently. There are still many powerful ghosts guarding humans, so we can’t harm people.”
"That ghost named Xiaomei has gathered a lot of followers, and these followers patrol every night to help humans. Even the water ghosts can't catch anyone swimming in the river anymore, and life is getting harder and harder."
Meng Xiong sneered: "Your good days have come. No ghosts will stop you in the capital city anytime soon. Take advantage of this time and absorb human energy and resentment."
"yes!"
One by one, the vengeful spirits drifted out, committing evil deeds for Meng Xiong.
Meng Xiong sat in the secret room and began to perform rituals.
Racing against time, they harmed everyone Tuan Tuan wanted to protect!
...
The ghostly creatures attacked Mingshan.
Gu Hongwen, Gu Jinghuai, Juechen, Wangchen, and Xiaomei immediately sensed the unsettling night and frowned.
Gu Jinghuai, holding a peach wood sword, entered the tent and instructed, "Uncle Yang, eldest brother, second brother, you must not come out later. Just sit in the tent, holding the amulets that Tuantuan gave you, and don't come out no matter what sound you hear."
He would also stick amulets on the outside of the tent.
Yang Jinchuan grabbed Gu Jinghuai's arm and asked seriously and anxiously, "Are there ghosts? Do they want to harm my Tuantuan?"
Gu Jinghuai: "It's not clear yet, but it's certain that they're coming for us."
Yang Chengze sighed helplessly, "Dad, let's not go out yet, so as not to cause trouble for everyone."
Yang Qixiu scratched his head. Although he didn't want to admit it, the current situation was the truth.
"The three of us, father and sons, will wait in the tent for a while."
At this moment, Yang Chengze only regretted that he was a domineering CEO and not a cultivator.
If he could cultivate immortality, if he knew metaphysics, how could he still be hiding here?
He can go out and fight for his sister right now!
Domineering CEOs are nothing compared to a master of metaphysics!
