Huang Quan's companion

Chapter 46

They hurried for five days, but Ruyi and the others couldn't catch up, so they had to find a few hard-to-find places to stop and rest.

Yang Jinshu taught Mrs. Seven some small spells, teaching her how to calm down and reduce hostility.

He Tang secretly asks Wan Niang to learn how to weave dreams, Shi Tianning covers him boredly.He Tang is smart, quick-witted, and imaginative, learning to weave dreams is much faster than Wan Niang expected.He Tang once secretly tried to entrust Zhu Xiaowu with a dream. In the dream, he accompanied Zhu Xiaowu to fly a kite, and Zhu Xiaowu was so happy that he was about to fly.

In a dream, He Tang told Zhu Xiaowu where to find them. Three days later, Ruyi and the three of them caught up and found their exact location.

Yang Jinshu mistakenly thought that Wanniang entrusted her to Ruyi in a dream, so she didn't care too much.

Zhu Xiaowu was no different from ordinary people, he couldn't see them during the day, but at night, with the blessing of the formation, he could finally see them.He rushed over excitedly to look for He Tang: "Brother Tang, I miss you so much! I dreamed of you a few days ago!"

He Tang was afraid that he would leak his words, so he hurriedly said: "Dreams mean that you can't sleep well. Are you too tired on the road? Is there any discomfort in the carriage?"

Zhu Xiaowu shook his head again and again: "No, it's quite fun, Brother Tang, why don't you sit with me next time too!"

"I can fly, what kind of carriage!" He Tang pinched his face and smiled, "Are you feeling better? Do you still have a headache?"

"It's okay, sometimes I get dizzy."

He Tang found that he hadn't changed much due to the addition of another ghost's soul in his body, so he felt relieved, touched his head and said, "That's good."

Wan Niang and the others are still chatting with Ruyi, but the old Fang on the side is silent, and his expression is not very good.

Yang Jinshu asked concerned: "Brother Fang, what's wrong?"

Ruyi supported her husband's shoulders, sighed and said: "It rained heavily a few days ago, Lao Fang was on the road every day, and had to take care of us both. I was tired and caught the cold, and I haven't recovered yet."

Wan Niang apologized: "Why didn't you see the doctor? Your health is a big deal."

"I saw it, and I took medicine, but it hasn't recovered." Ruyi was also worried, and smiled reluctantly, "I'll make medicine for him later, so you don't have to worry about it."

Yang Jinshu asked: "Can I borrow the prescription for next time?"

Ruyi took out the prescription from her sleeve, she was a little confused, so she said, "Young Master Yang, what's the matter?"

"Oh, I have a rough knowledge of medicine, and I want to see how well this prescription is prescribed, and why it doesn't work."

"Then... how about you take a look?"

Yang Jinshu looked at it for a while, changed a few medicines, and asked her to take the medicine again according to the changed prescription, maybe she would get better sooner.Ruyi thanked her again and again, and took Lao Fang to rest.Zhu Xiaowu is still pestering He Tang, but he has a special physique now, He Tang dare not stay with him for too long, so he drives him to the inn to practice calligraphy to kill time.

Seventh Madam kept her mouth covered and dared not speak, hid in the chessboard and listened to the lively conversation outside, her son and He Tang acting like a baby, until Zhu Xiaowu was taken away by He Tang, she also felt sad.

Wan Niang opened the cover of the chessboard, seeing her sad expression, she couldn't help persuading: "Madam Seven, Xiao Wu is fine, you might as well rest well."

Madame Seven nodded, she became more determined to seek revenge from Zhu's family, and practiced spells more diligently.

Monk Qingjing never caught up, Ruyi and the others relaxed, but Yang Jinshu felt that with the character of that master, he would never let it go, and his heart was hanging faintly.

Min Yuejun's reply letter was not received until they had traveled more than halfway.

Sure enough, as they expected, Min Yuejun and the cultivators from various factions investigated for a long time, and found that those ghosts were cruelly murdered and cultivated intentionally.Not only the sects of monasticism, but also the sects of the rivers and lakes have noticed this unusual thing, and have offered to help them.

Min Yuejun brought a few disciples around to hunt ghosts. Although he made a lot of money, he had a lot of worries. He reminded them to stay away from those ghosts and not to be implicated in them.

They looked at the seventh lady who was diligently practicing on the chessboard, and silently pretended not to see this warning.

They were very dissatisfied that there was no news about the magic stick in the letter. Yang Jinshu felt that it was unreasonable, so he burned the letter paper in the fire. New content appeared on the letter paper in the will-o’-the-wisp fire, and the magic stick teased on the paper: "Don't be eaten, Brats!"

After seeing it, Shi Tianning sneered: "It's obviously later than our death, but you come to teach us a lesson?"

Wan Niang helped Yang Jinshu sort out the materials, and said with a smile: "It seems that Shenzhu is doing well, we don't have to worry about him."

"Who should worry about him..." He Tang muttered, and then said, "Then when we go back, where will we live? Or the old place?"

"You can sleep in a coffin or live in Jinshu's mansion, we dare not... I don't know what the mass grave has become now, we have been out for several months, can Lao Liu take care of the house? !" Shi Tianning was even more troubled when he thought of the tragedy that Min Yuejun had caused in the mass grave.

Yang Jinshu: "Go back and have a look."

They hurried on their way, but Lao Fang's health was getting worse and worse. Yang Jinshu changed the prescription several times and tried many methods, but it still didn't work.Wan Niang secretly pulled Yang Jinshu aside and asked, "Jinshu, what happened to Lao Fang? Is it really just sick?"

Yang Jinshu was also a little confused: "Yeah, he just got a little bit of cold, it shouldn't be a problem, just take some medicine, but..."

Wan Niang bit her lip, guessing: "Could it be... something dirty?"

Yang Jinshu shook his head: "It shouldn't be, he doesn't have any ghostly aura about him, if he got into something unclean, how could we not notice it?"

"Then... how about that?"

Yang Jinshu sighed: "Oh... it would be great if the magic stick was around, he knows more than me."

The magic stick is thousands of miles away, so naturally it is impossible to rush over immediately, they can only rush all the way to the county town in worry.

Ruyi saw that Lao Fang's complexion was getting worse day by day, and she still didn't get better after asking about her health and personal care every day, so she silently washed her face in tears in the corner.Wan Niang secretly watched her eyes, and felt anxious, but she didn't know what to do.

He Tang and Shi Tianning also noticed something was wrong, they secretly asked Yang Jinshu and got the same answer.

"Impossible, how can the wind and cold toss for so long? Don't be pneumonia..."

Shi Tianning didn't understand: "Huh? Pneumonia?"

"That's right, a severe cold may develop into pneumonia..." He Tang couldn't help but worry, "Pneumonia is not easy to cure..."

Yang Jinshu shook his head and said, "I don't think so. Brother Fang's illness is always hanging, but it's not life-threatening. He took the medicine but it didn't improve for some reason. Could it be that my prescription is wrong?"

"Jin Shu...how about we follow them to look at it during the day?" He Tang suggested, "I always feel that walking in two ways is easy to cause accidents."

Yang Jinshu thinks so, they can only meet for a while at night, in order to avoid disturbing the three mortals during the day, they never get close, but if Ruyi accidentally gets contaminated with something strange during the day, they will not know .The three of Ruyi didn't know anything about this kind of ghostly power, maybe they didn't notice it at all.

After making up their minds, they picked a day and hid together in the Shura umbrella, supported by Yang Jinshu, and followed the three of them from a distance.

Because Lao Fang was ill and could no longer insist on driving the carriage, they had to ask a groom to help. The three of them sat in the carriage along the way. Fang wiped his sweat and covered himself with the quilt, very busy.

Zhu Xiaowu has gradually become sensible, helping to serve tea and water, handing over towels, and telling Ruyi to eat snacks.

The money Wan Niang gave them was enough for them to spend all the way. Ruyi was glad that she didn't have to worry about money at this time. She always went to the pharmacy to get medicine, and she didn't know how much she spent. I can't afford a groom.

After lunch in the carriage, Ruyi felt a little tired from seeing the groom, so she said to rest in place for half an hour.

It was already winter, and the weather was getting colder and colder. The groom tightened his thick jacket and took a nap against the carriage.

In the car, Lao Fang was still sweating and sleeping under the quilt. Ruyi wiped his sweat and felt a little sleepy, so he leaned against the car wall and closed his eyes to rest.Xiao Wu took the towel from her hand, put it in the basin, wrung it dry, and knelt gently to wipe Lao Fang's sweat.

Yang Jinshu couldn't help smiling when he saw it beside the carriage.He tapped the chess box lightly, told Mrs. Seven what he saw, and couldn't help but boast: "Xiao Wu is very sensible."

The chess box made a slight noise, which could be regarded as Seventh Madam's response.

The smile on Yang Jinshu's face hadn't dissipated yet, and suddenly Xiao Wu slowly retracted his hand wiping his sweat, and the obedient and sensible expression on his face disappeared.He couldn't help but tighten his hand holding the umbrella, and his eyes were fixed there.

Zhu Xiaowu put the towel aside, stared at Lao Fang's sleepy face with dark eyes, slowly leaned over, approached, opened his mouth slightly, narrowed his eyes slightly, and made a movement of inhaling.

Seeing this action, Yang Jinshu's face changed - this is clearly a way to attract people's yang energy!

He didn't dare to act rashly, because Zhu Xiaowu didn't realize that he was on the side, and if he suddenly bumped away from him, Lao Fang would most likely be backlashed and his soul damaged.Yang Jinshu pinched a tactic with his fingertips, ready to restrain Zhu Xiaowu when he stopped.

Zhu Xiaowu was extremely smart, he restrained himself by taking a little breath, then closed his mouth, closed his eyes and breathed slowly, and opened his eyes again after absorbing all the yang energy.

Yang Jinshu was about to make a move, but he was stunned for a while before he found the towel in his hand.He scratched his head in doubt, and without thinking too much, he dipped the towel into the basin to wash it again, and wiped Lao Fang's sweat again, his movements were extremely considerate and gentle.

It's just that Lao Fang's face is paler than before.

Yang Jinshu slowly withdrew his hand, got out of the carriage, and left quickly.

On the way, he told the three companions in the umbrella what he saw, and said in a low voice: "I thought that the ghost and Xiao Wu had already merged into one. Soul assimilation, it seems, is not the case now."

"That ghost took the opportunity to absorb Lao Fang's yang energy?" He Tang didn't expect the innocent Zhu Xiaowu to make trouble again, "While Xiao Wu is distracted?"

"I think Xiao Wu is ignorant, so she probably didn't know about this matter, but Brother Fang and Ruyi have suffered." Yang Jinshu wondered, "It's not appropriate to tell Ruyi at this time, she has taken care of Xiao Wu for so long, if she knows that her husband has been implicated by Xiao Wu , I’m afraid I’ll blame myself.”

Wan Niang said angrily, "I'll teach that ghost a lesson!"

"We don't know when that ghost will come out, so how can we teach you a lesson?" Shi Tianning stopped her, and said, "I think he's planning to let a long time pass, and the old Fang is not in danger now. We are almost at the county seat, Jin Shu, in your house There are many ancient books, why don't we find out if there is any way to save Lao Fang, and see if we can suppress the other ghost in Zhu Xiaowu's body."

"It makes sense." Yang Jinshu said, "Then let's go back to the county and discuss it."
