Chapter 53: Protection (Part 1)

“It shouldn’t be, Taotao can’t see those things.”

Fu Lanyue shook her head to refute Gu Zhisang’s words.

Her husband Xu Sheng beside also said that his daughter did not tell them that she could see ghosts, and she usually behaved like an ordinary child.

“There is a reason why she can’t see them.” Gu Zhisang said.

She didn’t continue this topic, but turned around and looked at Fu Lanyue again and said:

“You have raised an evil thing for a long time, so it shouldn’t be a product of Xia Country, right?”

Gu Zhisang couldn’t tell what Fu Lanyue was raising, because she had never seen ‘Kuman Thong’.

But she can infer from the remaining yin energy that the production method of that kind of evil spirit was different from the traditional baby ghosts and little ghosts in Xia Country.

Like the baby ghost that Qian Zheng raised before, the soul has been distorted. No matter how many years it lives, no matter how much life it swallows, it will only maintain the baby’s shape, and only the volume will grow.

However, the ‘Kuman Thong’ raised by Fu Lanyue was different.

The ghost that was locked in the storage object can grow up.

Fu Lanyue and her daughter Taotao both said that what they dreamed of was a girl who looked like a teenager.

Because of this difference, Gu Zhisang was very interested in this kind of evil and even wanted to catch one to study.

She looked at Fu Lanyue’s face, and said slowly:

“You are 33 years old this year. Needless to say about your past, you married your husband ten years ago and gave birth to a daughter, who is now 7 years old.”

“Judging from your facial features and palace position, your longevity position is raised, supporting the trend of your entire nose, which means that you are career-oriented, and at the same time manage your business very well. But your mountain root, there is a cloud of yin at the gate of life, which also shows that the reason why you are contaminated with those things is also for your career and wealth.”

Fu Lanyue had nothing to say because Gu Zhisang was right.

In the beginning, it was because she was running a beauty salon that she took the risk to raise ‘Kuman Thong’.

Gu Zhisang continued: “In addition to this, there is something strange about your face. Generally speaking, your child’s relationship is normal, and currently, there is only one daughter. But I have seen another hazy line of kinship.”

The reason why the line of kinship was said to be strange was that it was a foggy line as if it could be blown away by the wind at any time.

“Do you know what this means?” Gu Zhisang was also a little surprised and said:

“This means that the evil spirit regards you as its mother. It seems that you have taken great care in raising it.”

While Fu Lanyue was in a trance, Gu Zhisang stepped forward and put her palm on her shoulder.

She slowly closed her eyes, allowing the cloud of Yin energy invisible to the naked eye to penetrate her skin, and the next moment she recalled some fragments of her memories.

That was related to the ‘Kuman Thong’.

As long as it has memory, it knows clearly that it was abandoned by its mother. Its biological mother was a Thai woman who sold it to a Thai shaman for a large sum of money.

Then it was tortured and compressed into a small clay pot doll.

After several twists and turns, it was given to a young woman.

In the beginning, it was dissatisfied and even threatened the other party in a dream, but the woman still worshiped herself well every day, and its attitude softened over time.

What the woman asked for was not too much, it was nothing more than a lot of money, which was not difficult for it.

It clearly remembered that when the woman earned a big order for the first time, she was so excited that she picked up her clay sculpture from the altar and kissed it twice. At that moment, it felt the embrace of its mother for the first time.

The next day, when the woman returned home, she bought some clothes for the doll, and she muttered:

‘In the future, when I have money, I will go to a shop that sells dolls and ask them to make clothes for you…’

‘Mom will take good care of you.’

At that time, “Kuman Thong” called her “Mom” in its heart.

Later, the woman’s business grew, then fell in love and got married.

At first, her husband could not accept its existence, but the woman convinced him. Then she told it that she would have a ‘father’ in the future.

And indeed, they customized small clothes for clay dolls and put a small bowl and spoon by the table every time they eat. It knows that it has its seat.

It feels that it has integrated into this family and was very happy inside its heart.

Then ‘Mom’ became pregnant.

She would caress her belly lovingly, sing a lullaby to the fetus in her belly, and do prenatal education.

The ‘Kuman Thong’ felt a little lost. Because it never experiences such care, and it realizes that it was different from other human children.

But one day ‘Mother’ stood before it and said in a gentle voice:

‘I went for a B-ultrasound today, and you will have an extra sister in the future, so protect her well.’

When this sister was born, she was a soft baby. Her body was soft unlike its hard clay body, and she can cry unlike its stiff smile all year round;

She took the attention of ‘Mom’ more and more.

Since she was born, ‘Mom’ has never called “baby” as intimate as before. She has no time to customize small clothes for it, and she often forgot to prepare small bowls for it frequently… …

Gradually, it seems that there was no place for it in the family. ‘Mom’ only focused on her baby.

It became very jealous.

Gu Zhisang, who suddenly opened her eyes from the backtracking, frowned slightly, calming down her fluctuating emotions.

She said to Fu Lanyue: “Your daughter was born after midnight, right?”

Fu Lanyue nodded: “Yes, Taotao was born at 1 o’clock.”

When she gave birth to her daughter, she entered the hospital after 7:00 p.m. but didn’t give birth until midnight.

Gu Zhisang said: “That’s right, the time just after midnight was when the gate of hell was opened and the yin was heavy. She was born with a light horoscope at that time, her body was full of yin energy, and she was born with a mole on her left index finger and inherited a psychic physique. She must have been very weak when she was born, and she could always see ghosts.”

“Think about it carefully.”

Xu Sheng, who was on the side, heard the words and thought about it for a long time before he opened his mouth and said: “If you say it this way, Taotao was indeed prone to illness when she was young, and she often laughed inexplicably in the crib or started crying when she fell asleep…”

At that time, he and his wife were worried about their daughter’s health. They had to get up at night when they heard a little movement in the middle of the night.

When they heard their daughter crying at first, they thought she was hungry or tired, but after holding her in her arms, she fell asleep again with tears in her eyes, and the diaper was dry.

But this kind of situation only happened in the first half year after Taotao was born. They didn’t know when the situation of her daughter crying and laughing for no reason decreased and disappeared.

They always thought it was because of Taotao’s poor health when she was born.

Gu Zhisang nodded and said:

“Not only could she see it at that time, but she could easily provoke lonely ghosts because of her special constitution. For those wandering ghosts, your daughter is a very suitable body to seize.”

“Her body is weak and often gets sick. It is not pathological, but there are ghosts entrenched around her all the year round, which keeps her body’s yang energy low.”

Hearing this, the faces of Xu Sheng and Fu Lanyue turned pale.

“Why, how could this happen?!”

“That is indeed the case.” Gu Zhisang said in a cold tone: “But based on your daughter’s physical condition, why do you think her body only got weaker for so many years?”

The husband and wife were stunned, and a thought came to their minds.

“It’s because of the evil thing that you raised. Mrs. Fu, that evil thing treats you as family members, so it has been protecting your daughter as you wished so that those lonely ghosts cannot occupy her body.”

Fu Lanyue herself forgot that she said casually when she was pregnant: ‘You must protect your sister’.
