"What does this... mean?"

Everyone in the Gu family was a little confused and didn't quite understand what it meant to lose a soul. Seeing this, Yaoyao began to explain.

You know, it is said that people are born with three souls and seven spirits.

The three souls refer to Youjing, Shuangling and Taiguang, which are innate qualities of the fetus. All three souls are indispensable. Once one of them is missing, the baby will be born with a body but no soul, which means it is a stillbirth.

Relatively speaking, the seven spirits are obscure, and include hidden arrow, corpse dog, stinky lung, non-poison, thief swallower, sparrow vagina, and filth remover.

For example, the smelly lungs are responsible for the body's breathing function and the elimination of impurities is responsible for metabolism. Without the soul, you will not die, but your body will have various defects.

What Gu Wei lacks is the ability to swallow thieves' souls.

This soul is responsible for the body's digestion and absorption. If it is missing, no matter what good things you eat, they will not be absorbed into the body.

If people do not receive nourishment from food, their body will naturally deteriorate and they will get sick easily. Over time, their body will become weaker and weaker.

In terms of appearance, the most obvious feature is that he is as thin as a stick and looks sickly, just like my little nephew now.

After hearing such a clear statement, everyone in the Gu family understood it instantly, and then they became really anxious.

After all, how can that be possible if the body cannot be nourished? No wonder the children of the old family are always so weak.

"...Yaoyao, do you have any way to help Xiaowei find his lost soul?"

Chen Hui took a look at her little grandson with skinny cheeks and felt heartbroken.

She asked what was wrong. She had cooked countless delicacies from land and sea at home to nourish her body, but her condition didn't get better at all. It turned out that there was a problem at the root!

"Yaoyao, this is a request from me. If you need anything later, just tell me and I will do my best to help you."

Gu Heng also said.

Gu Wei is his only child at the moment. He is so afraid that he would melt if he holds him in his hands. In addition, the child is weak, so the symptoms are even more serious.

I originally thought it was a congenital defect and I could only accept my fate. But now I was told that it was because I lost my soul that I became like this.

At this moment, Gu Heng couldn't sit still at all.

The whole family looked over, as if waiting for an explanation.

Even the person involved, Gu Wei, was no exception. He looked at his little aunt curiously with his dark grape eyes.

"Brother, Mom, I will definitely help if I can."

Yaoyao shook his head and said, "It's just that once the three souls and seven spirits leave the body, they will dissipate in the outside world in a short time."

"If Weiwei was lost when he was born, it is very likely that he will not be found if you look for him now!"

Yin and Yang are divided between heaven and earth. The soul is pure Yin. Without the protection of the physical body, it will be wiped out by the Yang energy of the human world in three to five days at most, or a few hours at least.

If you lose it too early, there is basically no hope.

Yaoyao didn't want to let her mother and brother down after they were filled with hope, so she had to say the ugly words in advance.

"Let's try it first. If we can't find it, we can think of other ways." Gu Heng said after a moment of silence.

He understood his sister's words very well, but one must always hold out for hope.

"Okay, I'll try it then."

Seeing that her elder brother was so straightforward, Yaoyao said nothing more and immediately asked the servant to go to her room to get the yellow talisman and cinnabar.

After the things were brought, she started painting in front of everyone.

At this moment, the Gu family members didn't dare to breathe, for fear of disturbing the other party. They watched attentively.

However, they simply could not understand the flying runes on the talisman.

Almost two breaths later, Yaoyao put down the purple brush in her hand.

"Okay." After she finished infusing the talisman with spirit, the whole process was truly over, and she let out a long sigh.

"Will this thing really work?" Gu Li's eyes flashed with doubt.

Deep down, he didn't quite believe that Yaoyao had any special abilities.

"This is a soul-calling talisman. If Weiwei's soul is within ten miles of the talisman, it can sense it." Yaoyao said

She didn't say what would happen if it exceeded ten miles, but everyone was smart and naturally knew the answer.

In order to cast this talisman, the person's hair, clothes, or other personal items are needed to track him.

"Let's start." After listening to this, Gu Heng plucked a strand of his son's hair without hesitation and handed it to him.

After Yaoyao received the hair, she didn't delay. She held the talisman, formed the Taoist treasure bottle seal with her fingers, and shouted "Hurry!"

The yellow talisman ignited without fire, and wisps of white smoke floated away gracefully.

"This... this is...?" Chen Hui looked surprised

She couldn't figure out whether she had found it or not, and subconsciously looked at her daughter. She saw that her daughter didn't look well, and her heart skipped a beat.

"Follow the smoke!" Yaoyao said in a deep voice.

Did you really find it?

Normally, a soul cannot survive for so long after leaving the body. Of course, it is normal if Xuanmen's methods are involved. This is also the reason why Yaoyao looked unhappy.

The Gu family didn't know this, but when they heard that they had found it, they all smiled and called the driver to follow them.

......

After a while, everyone got off the bus.

However, when they saw where the white smoke stayed, the faces of the Gu family members changed.

"Why are you here?"

Gu Yu couldn't help but speak out, and saw that in front of them was a big hotel, with security guards standing at the door and a concierge responsible for welcoming and seeing off guests.

On the door lintel, there is a gold-plated plaque with three huge regular script characters "Mingfuyuan" written on it.

This was obviously the banquet venue they had booked earlier.

As the banquet was about to start, there were already many people coming and going at the hotel entrance. Some of them were close and recognized the Gu family members immediately.

"Boss Gu, you guys are here so early?"

"This must be your daughter, she is so beautiful."

Under normal circumstances, if their daughter was praised, the Gu family would inevitably make a few polite remarks, but this time no one was in the mood to chat.

They were afraid of delaying the white smoke, so after a simple response, they walked straight into the hotel.

After entering, they saw white smoke surrounding a little boy in a neat suit.

He is about the same age as Gu Wei, and now he is being led by a middle-aged man, being obedient and silent.

The white smoke that had not dissipated all the way disappeared directly after hitting the person. The result was obvious: the soul was found.

"Old Third, why are you here so early today?"

Because they made quite a bit of noise when they came in, the middle-aged man turned around and was stunned at first when he saw Gu Xuesong, then he smiled and greeted him.

He was none other than Gu Xuesong's elder brother, Gu Xingjun, who was also Gu Heng's uncle.

In Gu Xuesong's generation, the Gu family had three sons and one daughter. He was the third child and had two older brothers.

However, after the separation, the brothers did not have much contact with each other.

Since it was a daughter-adoption party, all the outsiders were invited, so the brothers' families had to send out invitations as well. Gu's second brother and youngest sister were not in the country, so they did not come. Only Gu Xingjun came.

And the little boy next to him is his little grandson.

"Yayao, what is this saying?"

Chen Hui stared straight ahead. In fact, she had already guessed most of it, but she just didn't want to believe it.

"Sister-in-law, what's going on..." Gu Xingjun was also a little confused.

What on earth are these people doing? They ignored my call and instead asked a little baby what was going on?

Why is it that the richer this family becomes, the more weird they become?

He looked over and was met with a pair of eyes as black as ink. Such pure blackness made him inexplicably uneasy.

Yaoyao also looked at the person in front of her. She pursed her lips, then turned to Chen Hui and said.

"Mom, this uncle's uterus is dry and fleshless, so he should have no successors. Is this little boy really his grandson?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Gu Xingjun's face suddenly changed.

He scolded, "Where did you come from, kid? How do you talk to your elders like that?"

And remembering the way this person just called people, Gu Xingjun finally reacted, "Third brother, is this the daughter your family insisted on adopting? She really hasn't been taught enough."

His voice was filled with anger, but anyone who knew him would know that this was a sign of his guilty conscience, and the more guilty he felt, the louder his voice became.

"Brother, Xiaoxiao has been taught a lot, that's not something you need to worry about. Now, I have something to ask you."

"Why is the soul that my Xiao Wei lost in Qing Kai's body?"

Chen Hui is not a fool. If her daughter still doesn't understand what she has said, then there is really a problem.

Her words sounded like thunder exploding out of nowhere to Gu Xingjun's ears.

"You...what are you talking about? What about spirits and souls? I don't understand." He said in a restrained voice.

But his eyes subconsciously avoided.

His expression instantly made the Gu family realize that Gu Wei's loss of a soul was no accident.

It's even related to this good uncle of his.
