"Again? Haven't you cheated enough? I won't fall for it. Just have fun on your own." I said.

Having said that, I did calculate the dates, and it was just as she said, her due date should have come in the next few days, but she hasn't shown up yet. So although I looked indifferent on the surface, I couldn't help but worry in my heart. If it was true, if I drove her away, wouldn't it mean two lives would be lost? And this time, it seemed that there was a real possibility.

"Lie to you? I have taught sister Yunwen how to feel a pregnant pulse. You can ask her to make the diagnosis for me. If I lied to you, I will leave on my own without you saying anything. How about that? You said I didn't move all day and didn't do anything. It's because I was thinking about the baby in my belly. Do you intend to let a pregnant woman do anything?" Bai Lu asked.

I walked past her and said, "Okay, Song Bailu, do you think you can get anything with this method? If you and the baby in your belly endanger the people in our city, I'm sorry, I will still drive you away. This is what I will do and this is my responsibility now. Do you really think I am still the same person as before? The responsibility I have to bear now is not for one or two people. Do you think it will work if you threaten me with this?"

Hearing what I said, her face changed immediately, and then she revealed a ferocious face, just like when she left the house just now, her face wrinkled into a ball, her whole body began to hunch over again, and suddenly she changed her tone and said, "Sister, I told you that Zhou Bo is heartless and ungrateful, why don't you believe it?"

Then she answered herself like crazy, her eyes regained some clarity, and said, "No, Brother Zhou Bo has his own considerations now. He is right. There are other people in the city that he has to take into account. Besides, even if I am pregnant, he may not want to be the father of this child! Yingchun, please stop talking."

Yingchun? The ghostly appearance revealed could not possibly be Song Yingchun's. Even if she was possessed by a ghost, it could not possibly be Yingchun. But why did Song Bailu think that the old voice was Song Yingchun's?

"He wants to drive you away. If he leaves, you will die. If you die, you will become a wandering ghost like me, sister!" Song Bailu said a few more words to herself.

At this time, Lingshang and Yunwen returned to the house together, and saw a mess of food all over the floor. Yunwen also saw that the food was raw and bloody, so she roughly understood why Bailu and I were in a confrontation now. When Song Bailu saw the goat next to Yunwen, it immediately made a sharp gurgling sound and then ran upstairs quickly, covering his head while running upstairs, and his legs and feet limped again, which was particularly scary.

Yunwen picked up the raw fish and some half-cooked vegetables on the ground and brought them to the kitchen. She used our own stainless steel pot and a dustpan to prepare for steaming. The fish was processed as needed. After steaming, Yunwen added the dry ingredients and the fish meat gradually gave off an aromatic aroma. She also processed the rest of the kelp and potatoes, and cooked a dish with fish oil. The steamed bun was the best one. She helped me peel off the dirty skin, and put it back on the table.

I also made a pot of ginseng tea, which was our dinner for Yunwen and I tonight.

"Song Bailu is really deeply possessed by evil and is becoming more and more outrageous. It seems that as you said, we should drive her away. Otherwise, she will become a disaster and a burden, and will only affect us in the end." I said.

However, Yunwen and Lingshang looked at each other, and Lingshang said, "Zhou Lang, the mother is not compatible, but the child is innocent. If the fetus in her belly dies with her, can you feel at ease?"

I was shocked. I didn't expect that they all knew about it. Yunwen also said at this time: "I have been wondering about this matter recently. I happened to hear your conversation in the house. Song Bailu shouted so loudly that it was hard to guarantee that she didn't hear it. Therefore, we both knew about this matter. It seems that it is still inhumane to drive her away."

"But didn't the goat say that if you want to be safe during the Yin period, you must do those three things?" I asked.

"Sister Yunwen also told me that all three things are indeed very important. Whether planting trees or bringing the sheep into the city, they will all play a role in concealing the aura. But if Song Bailu is already deeply trapped in the evil spirit, it will definitely destroy our careful cover-up, which will be disadvantageous to us. That's why I think the big goat made this suggestion." Ling Shang said.

"That's right. The cold winter is about to arrive, and there is a disaster on this side. Even if she kills my child, I can't be distracted by this matter, nor can I risk the lives of everyone in the city because of this, right?" I asked with a little hesitation.

Yunwen seemed to see my intention. She put a steamed bun on the iron plate in front of me, smiled at me and said, "Zhou Bo, since everything has not yet come, we can still make a long-term plan. We don't necessarily have to drive Sister Bailu away. After all, she should be pregnant with your child this time. The child is innocent. Even if we want to drive her away, we have to wait until the child is born, right?"

"A pregnancy of ten months means that she has to be kept for ten months, but now the full moon night is approaching, and some things hiding in the darkness are about to attack. Lingshang and I have seen how terrifying they are, and we may not have seen their full potential. This is just the tip of the iceberg. If those things really attack us because of Bailu and cause great casualties to us, what should we do?" I asked.

Yunwen took my hand, patted it and said, "Then we will live and die together, because I know that Zhou Bo, you have always been honest. If you let your child and her biological mother die, you will definitely feel guilty for the rest of your life and you will not be happy. I don't want you to feel so uncomfortable, so let's be good and let it go, okay?"

I sighed. I'm afraid this kind of thing cannot be understood in the civilized world. But in this special and remote place, and with Yunwen's well-behaved personality, she can accept and tolerate it. However, there are some things that only she can say. Since she can tolerate and is willing to allow Bailu, who is like a time bomb, to exist, then I don't need to say much.

At least even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. Like all living creatures, I still hope that my offspring can survive and live safely.

Afterwards, Yunwen and I had a full meal with the steamed fish and stir-fried vegetables she made, accompanied by steamed buns and ginseng tea. Lingshang also drank two sips of ginseng tea and chatted with us until we finished eating. After Yunwen cleaned up the dishes, I said, "Listen, since we want to keep Song Bailu, we have to find some treatment for her current condition. I remember that she looks like an old woman from time to time, with a hunched body, drooping feet, and old-fashioned speech, but she calls herself Yingchun. In this regard, although I don't know how to treat her, I can at least try a method. In addition, we have to nourish Bailu's body so that she can have enough nutrition to give birth to a child."

"What should we do then?" Yunwen asked.

"Starting from now on, we will let her sleep on the second floor, and we will sleep downstairs to prevent her from going crazy and causing harm to us. In addition, the three of us will take turns to keep watch. One, to listen to what she mumbles to herself every night, two, to be careful in case she comes downstairs and does something crazy, and three, when her belly gets a little bigger, we will also develop the habit of helping her as soon as she gets into trouble. The next step is to deal with it. We will discuss it with each other after we are done with our work for the day. That's the arrangement." I said.

"Okay, okay, I have never been on duty before, so why not give this first shift to me?" Ling Shang said.

"Okay, you will be in the first shift, I'll be in the second, and Yunwen will be in the third. But before that, we have to find a way to make the beds. Tomorrow I will move an iron bed from the cave warehouse on the hillside so that everyone can sleep. Let's just squeeze into the small wooden room on the first floor tonight." I said.

Speaking of that bed, Yunwen couldn't help but blushing, after all, her first time was with me there. Seeing her like this, my face also blushed a little, so after we all washed up, we went to the corner. Yunwen arranged the sheep to sleep with Sanfu, and the foxes gathered on the ground to rest. After Yunwen and I came to the wooden bed, two relatives squeezed on the quilt, so Yunwen and I could only hug each other tighter in order to cover the quilt.

Ling Shang found a place near the dining table and was practicing meditation. I vaguely saw the Yinxi Pot in her hand with green plants in it. It seemed that she was using this method of absorbing essence to improve herself. It was her first time to keep watch, so I gave her a few more instructions while she was washing.
