ots and swollen red patches."Here" she asked, her voice a hoarse whisper.I nodded, and she immediately pulled out a small bottle, sprinkling a circle on the ground. Then, facing the closed door below,...As a doctor, it's important to be proactive and prevent problems before they happen. My two fellow masters left for the hospital, while I was instructed to stay home and call Tang Yufei and the driver to check on their condition.

Tang Yufeng scoffed when I told her about the strange mother-daughter duo. “Whatever,” she said dismissively, “It doesn’t really concern us… at most, it has something to do with my driver.”

"What do you mean" I didn't understand.

She chuckled and said, "I feel like that woman is hitting it off with my driver brother. Who knows, maybe they'll spark a little romance. But everyone's getting up there in age, they need to be responsible for their actions. Let's just not get involved."

"This won't do, that woman might be in danger. Remind your driver to stay away from her!"

Tang Yufeng lazily responded with a sound, I wasn't reassured, and took her driver's phone number.

When I called, a woman answered. As soon as she heard my voice, she asked, "Who are you to him!"

"Huh I... I'm just a passenger. We saw a strange person on the way back, and I just wanted to ask the driver if everything was alright..."

"What the hell, you little bitch, are you worried about him He's a rough old man, why do you care so much Don't think that pretending to be a student will fool me, I know you're his little whore. You slut, flirting with a married man, watch out or you'll get ** all over you!"

Damn! You're so rude!

I hung up the phone, it was impossible to communicate.

It seems that the driver often runs errands and has had quite a few romantic affairs, which is why his wife is so agitated.

I held my phone in my hand, turning it over and over, before taking out the small card my shifu had given me.

There is a person's name and phone number above.

It took several tries before I got through. When the person on the other end answered, I nervously swallowed.

"Master, good to see you!" I greeted him with flattery.

"Huh" The other party's tone was naturally laced with a hint of teasing, "Where did this little girl come from to call me master"

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Mu Yunfan"

"Who are you What do you want with Mu Yunfan" You could practically picture him raising an eyebrow as he spoke, his tone dripping with skepticism.

I briefly mentioned that it was my master's wife, Mu Xiaqiao, who said to call this number if you need help.

He listened for a long while, then suddenly asked, "Is Xiao Qiao your mistress She only has one apprentice named Mu Wanchen, what's your relationship with Mu Wanchen"

"Um... temporarily... no, it's okay." How did this person hit the nail on the head.

"Haha, it's okay for now Then don't look for me for a while, I'm pretty busy. Bye bye."

"Hold on, hold on... It's just, for now, it's just a friendship, okay At least you could pass a message to my master wife—"

"Ha ha, could that big lumberjack have female friends Little girl, you better tell the truth. I'm really busy and don't have time to explore your teenage heartthrob fantasies."

Ugh, he really talks...

I simply told him about my experience. After listening, he cautiously asked me to send him a selfie so he could confirm my identity when he went to find his master.

He's really meticulous about everything. I was feeling a bit down, so I just casually took a picture and sent it over. He replied: "Wait, don't act rashly."

Seeing this, I let out a small sigh of relief. The black cat I rescued has been eating deworming medication every day, and its droppings are always white and fluffy, so it must have gotten cleaner inside.

This black cat has made the gazebo its den. Every time someone enters the backyard, it will loudly sound the alarm, and it's quite affectionate towards my sister and me.

I went through all the books in my house related to witchcraft and discovered a sentence about gu, lightly mentioned with no further elaboration, but it was incredibly important.

>

They can even manipulate living people and the dead through witchcraft. In our sect, those who are manipulated all exhibit signs of being strange, unusual, crazy, evil, frenzied, or hysterical.

I flipped through it and saw that my father had written down some basic treatment methods, but they were very general, mentioning only the Thirteen Ghostly Acupoints.

"Squeak—" The door was suddenly pushed open, and I screamed in fright.

My sister was also startled at the door and exclaimed, "What are you doing Why shout so loudly! You scared me to death..."

"Sorry, sorry…" My sister can't be scared. She has a heart condition, I'm really worried she'll pass out if she gets startled.

"Where did big brother and the others go out this late" she ran up to ask me.

"I'm going out, something came up. What's wrong You can't sleep without seeing Big Brother one last time before bed!" I grinned at her.

"Hmph! Nonsense," she glared at me, then whispered, "I've always felt that the atmosphere in our house has been a bit off lately..."

Strange I don't feel anything.

"You run out every day, and none of the senior brothers say anything. I stay at home all day and get bored to death. Even a little breeze or rustling leaves inside feels like something's happening." My sister explained.

"What do you find strange about it"

She frowned and said, “Father has been out for a long time. I called him yesterday, and he was still in Hong Kong. He said he was very busy and couldn’t talk on the phone… I suspect something might have happened to him.”

No way... Am I being held hostage

This kind of situation has happened before. Those wealthy elites, under various polite excuses, "kindly" kept the doctors there. If they couldn't cure the illness, they would create all sorts of difficulties and prevent them from leaving.

"Overall, I feel that the atmosphere at home is a bit off. Perhaps Senior Brother Jun knows something but isn't telling us... We can't really help anyway. I told you this because I want to remind you not to wander around aimlessly recently, so as to save Senior Brother Jun some worry."

"Oh. All day long they say I'm running around, what have I done wrong" I rolled my eyes in annoyance.

After my sister went back to her room, I lay down in mine. My phone vibrated and it was a message from that "master": Little girl, do you have those strange mother-and-son photos you mentioned

I immediately called Brother Jun for the photos. When he answered, his voice was low and serious: "That child is probably not going to make it, but the woman has disappeared. We've already reported it to the police."

"What will happen to the child if he dies"

"To be cremated after autopsy according to legal procedures."

"Senior brother... I, I think we shouldn't dissect him. Let's just send him straight to his burial." My voice trembled a bit.

If he really was infested with parasites, like that driver who tried to kill me, wouldn't an autopsy cause the bugs to crawl out of his body That would be a problem.

"...We'll advise the hospital leaders." Jun shidi said in a low voice.

He hung up the phone and sent me a picture. I just forwarded it when I heard a cat meow in the yard.

A series of shrill cries, mingled with low growls.

I pushed open the window and saw the black cat baring its teeth and hissing in the direction of the back gate., and the Milky Way cascaded down like a waterfall.This boundless lake bottom, inexplicably emanates a strange yet magnificent glow."This is the Lake of Desolation. The mountains here hold beautiful j...
