The woman was holding a cup of water in her hand and was smiling as she invited the child to come over and drink some water.
Suddenly, she seemed to realize that something was wrong.
I turned my head subconsciously and saw Jiang Xuxu and Chu Beihe walking towards me.
Sensing that there was something wrong with the two men, the woman's face changed. Without caring about anything else, she suddenly picked up the child and ran back into the house.
Jiang Xuxu frowned upon seeing this, and rushed over without hesitation. Before the other party had time to close the door, he raised his hand and threw a talisman over.
Suddenly, there was a scream from the woman inside the door, followed by the child's scream.
"Mom! Mom, what's wrong with you?"
Jiang Xuxu pushed the door open and walked in. He paused only for a moment when he saw the door god posted on the door, and then quickly went in with Chu Beihe who followed closely behind him.
Inside the house, the woman fell to the ground with a pale face, looking like she couldn't get up.
The child was next to the woman, looking at Jiang Xuxu and Chu Beihe who suddenly appeared, with a look of fear on his face.
At this time, the male owner who heard the noise came out, saw the miserable state of his "wife", and then saw the two people standing in front of the child. His face changed, and he quickly rushed over to block the child and his "wife".
"Two great masters... don't do that. You're scaring the child."
Jiang Xuxu: ...
She just saw the possessed female ghost carrying the child into the house, and thought she was trying to use the child as a threat, so she took direct action.
Now it seems that she misunderstood.
"I won't do it."
Jiang Xuxu said, looking at the child hiding behind the man, feeling a little guilty, "Don't be afraid."
Seeing that the child was still frightened and trying to take off the man's clothes, Jiang Xuxu had no choice but to speak.
"I came here after reading a post you posted online."
After hearing the post, the child’s eyes widened slightly, and the child’s “parents” obviously understood something, and their faces were filled with helplessness for a moment.
"Xiao Tao, have you figured it out?"
The man asked the child named Xiaotao.
Lu Xiaotao looked at the man who looked like his father smiling at him, and he lowered his head timidly. After a while, he whispered,
"My parents are not like you."
They were always arguing, and quarrels would break out at home from time to time. Every time they quarreled, he could only hide in the room and cover his ears.
But since that night, he found that his parents suddenly changed.
They became, well, exceptionally good.
In the past, my parents always did their own things at home, and at the dinner table I could only hear my father’s critical voice and my mother’s dissatisfaction.
But after that night, not only would his parents pick up food for each other with a smile, they would also ask with a smile whether he had encountered any interesting things at school.
After dinner, Dad no longer just lies on the bed playing with his mobile phone. Instead, he will help Mom clean up the kitchen, and then the two of them will take him to watch cartoons with him.
Even at night, they would look at him lying in bed together and say good night to him.
Lu Xiaotao really thinks that his current parents are very good.
However, he couldn't pretend not to notice that the dishes his parents picked for each of them were the ones they didn't usually like to eat, and when they watched cartoons with him, their arms around him were stiff.
Mom will no longer ask him to take interest classes, and Dad will not scold her for spending money.
He knew that these two people were not his parents.
The woman who had just been injured by the talisman slowly sat up, looked at Lu Xiaotao, and asked,
"Aren't we good parents?"
Hearing this, Lu Xiaotao quickly glanced at the woman, then lowered his head again.
"You are very nice, but I...I still want my original parents..."
They may not be good enough, but they are his parents.
The couple ghosts in front of them didn't say anything, and looked like they were letting themselves be dealt with.
Seeing this, Jiang Xuxu simply looked at the child, but what he said shocked even Lu Xiaotao himself.
"But you invited this couple of ghosts in yourself."
Lu Xiaotao stared at Jiang Xuxu with wide eyes, as if he didn't quite understand what she meant.
Jiang Xuxu pointed to the door.
"The door god on your door has been blessed. Generally, no evil spirits will enter such a house at will.
But they can enter and exit freely without being stopped by the door gods, which means that it is you, the owner of this house, who actively invited them in. "
People often talk about ghosts and gods. The reason they put the two together is that on some levels, ghosts also have the ability to help people realize their wishes.
Jiang Xuxu guessed that the child must have inadvertently made a wish to the nearby ghosts and gods.
When the ghost couple saw that Jiang Xuxu and Chu Beihe did not attack them after entering the room, they knew that this was a reasonable master, so they explained,
"Last night, the child's parents were arguing loudly in the house, and the child got scared and ran out of the door."
He didn't run far at that time. He knelt down at the door of his house facing the place where his mother used to offer sacrifices to the gods, and expressed his request there.
He said that he didn't want his parents to quarrel anymore and he wanted a pair of good parents who loved him very much.
And they came here because they heard his call.
Compared to adults, children's voices are often more likely to be heard by ghosts and gods because their minds are simple and pure.
After finding out what happened, Jiang Xuxu told Lu Xiaotao,
"Since you invited them here, if you want them to leave, you have to ask them to leave."
She could have forcibly sent the two away, but there was no need.
Seeing that Lu Xiaotao understood what he meant, Jiang Xuxu asked him to select some offerings from home and set up a simple incense table.
