Chapter 161: Chapter 159: You’re Almost a Dead Person (Fifth Update)

Yun Qi took advantage of Little Yezi and others holding up the teacher with endless chatter about their glorious deeds, and quietly collected the old man’s soul.

At night, she would hand it over to the Yin Cha, since the old man hadn’t caused much havoc, although when he reached Ghost City, he wouldn’t escape a good beating.

When school ended in the afternoon, many children, including Little Yezi, held onto Yun Qi reluctantly.

"Yun Qi, tomorrow I’ll bring you some delicious treats, they’ve been kept for a long time."

"Tomorrow I’ll give you the little sprouts I’ve grown, they’re so pretty." A child with unclear pronunciation said earnestly.

"Yun Qi, tomorrow will you teach me how to play that little ghost game, please?"

...

A strange scene unfolded at the kindergarten gate, and the teachers could only calmly explain to the parents,

"Sorry, they had a nightmare during nap time, it was probably Yun Qi who woke them up, so she became a hero in the children’s eyes."

"I see." The parents smiled understandingly.

Yun Qi finally broke free from the little fans and saw Yun Qiuce, reaching out for help—as if asking to be held.

Yun Qiuce was flattered, "What happened today? Why are you so popular?"

"Qi has always been popular, she’s got a huge market." Little Dumpling proudly made a big circle with his hand to show how big her market was.

Yun Qiuce chuckled, just about to turn and leave when Yun Qi suddenly kicked her legs frantically, speaking in a worried childish voice, "Uncle, put me down..."

Yun Qiuce quickly put her down, only to see Yun Qi racing over to Little Yezi, looking up and sizing up the man who came to pick up Little Yezi.

"Dad, today Little Yezi met lots of little ghosts, luckily Sister Xiao Qi was there, otherwise I wouldn’t have seen you..." Little Yezi pouted and acted coy with her dad.

The man had already heard about what happened from the teachers, and he chuckled dismissively, "Okay, Daddy knows Little Yezi had a nightmare, Daddy will help you beat the little ghosts, okay?"

"You can’t, Sister Xiao Qi is better at beating ghosts."

The man didn’t take it seriously, assuming it was just child’s talk.

Suddenly Yun Qi’s eyes turned stern, her little face serious, "Uncle, let me give you something temporarily as a gift. Keep it with you. When I come back, we’ll solve your problem slowly, but you’ll have to pay at that time."

The man was stunned, adjusting his glasses, "Xiao Qi, what are you talking about, Uncle doesn’t understand."

Of course you don’t understand, because you’re almost a dead man.

Ghost energy surrounds you, draining your yang energy, your teeth have turned black and your face is ashen, the black energy on your forehead has consumed your entire face.

No wonder Little Yezi’s soul is so unstable, their house has already had ghosts visiting.

"Uncle, just take it, have the money ready, I’ll collect it when I come back, not cheap, one hundred thousand per talisman." Yun Qi said, stuffing a Spirit Talisman into the man’s hand.

The man’s expression changed drastically, looking at the Spirit Talisman in his hand with disdain, "You little girl, since Little Yezi likes you so much, how can you bring this evil business to your classmates’ homes!"

Yun Qi was about to say something when the man irritably growled, "Go away..."

Before he could finish, Little Yezi screamed, "Daddy, I won’t let you yell at Sister Xiao Qi like that."

"But..."

"No buts, whatever Sister Xiao Qi gives you, you must take it..."

"It’s a hundred thousand yuan..." The man tried to continue.

"So what if it’s a hundred thousand, just give it." Little Yezi put her hands on her hips and pouted stubbornly.

"Little Yezi, listen to Daddy..." The man squatted down, trying to seriously explain to his daughter.

But Little Yezi huffed angrily, sticking out her butt, placing her little hands behind her, steeling herself, then unleashed a sonic scream attack.

The scream made the man, Yun Qi, and Yun Qiuce all wince and grimace.

"Okay, okay, Daddy will listen, Daddy will take it."

"You also have to carry it around." Yun Qi reminded sternly.

The man showed impatience, and when Little Yezi saw this, she was about to puff up her butt again. The man quickly surrendered, "I’ll carry it, carry it all the time, Daddy will even carry it to the bathroom and shower, okay?"

Only then did Little Yezi, satisfied, put away her sonic scream, held her father’s hand, and smiled sweetly, bidding farewell to Yun Qi.

Yun Qi was stunned; so children could use this tactic too.

She was truly obedient.

"Uncle—" Yun Qi turned around, wanting to share her insight, but Yun Qiuce quickly picked her up, "Qi, be good, let’s not learn that!"

***

A perfect day at kindergarten came to an end.

That night was dreamless.

The next morning, Qin Luo arrived early in Hai City.

The Yun Family expressed their immense concern and reluctance about Yun Qi going alone with Qin Luo to another place.

But Qi insisted on going, even rejecting Yun Qiuce’s request to accompany her.

"There are many things to do on this trip, quite troublesome." Her childish voice said seriously.

Yun Qiuce confidently patted his chest, "Uncle is not afraid of trouble."

"But I am!" Yun Qi lifted her head, her gaze firm.

Yun Qiuce clutched his heart dramatically, realizing he was the trouble himself.

"Qi, are you really okay on your own?" Yun Qiucheng couldn’t help but worry.

Qin Luo stepped forward, a gentle smile on his handsome, youthful face, "Uncle, rest assured, I will take good care of Qi."

Yang He and Yang Xiu stepped forward respectfully and said, "Mr. Yun, rest assured, we will definitely protect Miss Qi, she won’t come to any harm."

Yun Qi also firmly patted her little chest, "Grandpa and Uncle, rest assured, I will protect them and not let anyone be harmed."

Yang He and Yang Xiu exchanged a glance, wondering who was protecting whom.

Oh, it was the Little Master protecting them.

***

Gui City Guyue County is located at the intersection of high plateaus and basins, surrounded by mountains and marked by subtropical wet weather, which nurtures vast tracts of primeval forests.

The jungle is teeming with miasma and poisonous creatures, inhabited by various ethnic groups with conservative customs, deeply influenced by Nuo culture.

On the plane, Yang He and Yang Xiu diligently researched all available information about Guyue County.

"Brother, what is Nuo culture?" Yang Xiu asked.

Yang He frowned in thought, "Simply put, it was the ancient version of shamanistic practices. In the past, people were ignorant and feared gods and ghosts, so they performed all sorts of strange dances to ward off ghosts. But nowadays, it’s just part of traditional culture and doesn’t serve much purpose."

Yun Qi turned her head, her clear phoenix eyes fleetingly scanning Yang He’s face.

That’s incorrect; today’s Nuodance can still ward off ghosts, it’s not about the era.

However, Guyue County has been rich in Nuo culture from ancient times, venerating Lei Shou and the Five Directions Thunder God Generals, while the city is covered with dense Evil Qi, yin energy congregates, ghostly wails fill the skies, ear-splitting and exceedingly abnormal.

Yun Qi’s visit was not only to help Brother Qin Luo but also at the request of the 49th Bureau Headquarters to uncover the truth.
