Chapter 147: Chapter 146, The Beautiful Aunt Suffers from a Rare Disease

Xu Wendong, "Your qi and blood are somewhat weak, besides this, you also have severe neurasthenia."

"Yes, I’m aware of these symptoms, and I’ve been receiving treatment, but the effects haven’t been great." The woman looked worried.

Xu Wendong continued, "Do you frequently dream?"

The woman nodded repeatedly, "You’re right, I dream every night and..."

Xu Wendong, "And what?"

"I have the same dream, it recurs every night." The woman’s face turned pale as a trace of unexplainable fear flickered in her eyes.

"At first, I thought I was possessed, but I’ve consulted some masters and even stayed at a Taoist temple and a monastery for a while. However, no matter where I went, the dream would still occur."

Xu Wendong, "Can you tell me what happens in your dream?"

The woman’s face showed a hint of hesitation.

Xu Wendong smiled, "A disease shouldn’t be hidden from the doctor, there’s nothing inconvenient to say unless you want the dream to keep recurring."

The woman hesitated, then awkwardly said, "In my dream, there’s a spotless white double bed surrounded by darkness. Whenever I fall asleep, I find myself waking up on that bed."

"Then... a hideously ugly monk appears in the darkness. He is naked and does... those things to me." As she spoke, the woman’s face showed expressions of pain and humiliation.

"Doctor, do you think I have some neurological disorder?" The woman hoped to be diagnosed with a mental illness rather than accept that the events in the dream played out each night.

Although it was just a dream, it made her feel nauseated and disgusted.

Xu Wendong asked curiously, "How long has this been happening?"

The woman thought for a moment, "It’s been over two years."

Xu Wendong continued, "Before this situation started, where did you travel? Did you encounter any strange people or objects?"

The woman recalled, "Before this began, I traveled to countries in Southeast Asia, but didn’t meet any peculiar people or things!"

Xu Wendong, "When you say countries in Southeast Asia, do you mean Thailand?"

Boom!

The woman felt her scalp tingle and stood up in shock. Her sudden movement made her chest heave noticeably, giving an overwhelming impression of bareness.

"How... how did you know I went to Thailand?" The woman gazed at Xu Wendong in disbelief, being the mother of Yan Shuangshuang, the chairman of Shengpeng Group, she intended to meet Xu Wendong today to size him up.

But now she found that this man was far more terrifying than she had imagined.

After all, Southeast Asia wasn’t just one country!

Xu Wendong smiled, "Not only do I know you traveled to Thailand, but I also know you came into contact with an amulet. If I’m not mistaken, you have an amulet at home as an honored contributor."

Yan Liuli instinctively swallowed and nervously asked, "From what you’re saying, you think my condition is related to the honored amulet?"

Xu Wendong, "Think carefully, did your symptoms begin after bringing home the amulet?"

"Yes, that’s indeed the case." Yan Liuli’s face turned ashen, "But it shouldn’t be like this. I honored the amulet to ward off evil and ensure peace, so how could it have sparked such incidents?"

She found it challenging to accept this explanation. After all, she had gone to the lengths of traveling far and wide to Thailand to procure an amulet for peace, only to end up with trouble instead.

Xu Wendong said, "How should I put it, I don’t believe that Buddha can ensure peace. I have more faith in our gods than in Buddha, as our gods belong to our country, while Buddha... is like a foreign monk."

"Counting on a foreign monk to protect us?"

"Ha!"

With just a "ha," he revealed his disdain.

"Moreover, Buddhas are differentiated into Esoteric and Zen Buddhism."

"The Buddha you have as an honored contributor belongs to Esoteric Buddhism. You can check the difference between the two major sects online, and it should be eye-opening for you."

Yan Liuli nervously asked, "So what should I do now to rid myself of that dream?"

Xu Wendong replied, "Buddha may seem lofty, and while getting rid of that dream might seem troublesome, it’s also quite simple. Just throw that amulet into a filthy place, and naturally, you’ll be rid of the dream."

Yan Liuli, "What do you mean by ’filthy place’?"

Xu Wendong laughed, "A public restroom!"

Yan Liuli gasped and worriedly said, "Isn’t this the greatest disrespect to the Buddha?"

Xu Wendong chuckled, "Sister, the Buddha in your heart has already wronged you, and you’re still considering showing respect?"

Yan Liuli was speechless.

Xu Wendong added, "The amulet you’ve honored is a medium. If you don’t remove this medium, you’ll continue to have those recurring dreams. This is also a principle emphasized in traditional Chinese medicine: treat the root cause."

"Alright, I understand what needs to be done." A decisive glint passed through Yan Liuli’s eyes. To escape that endlessly recurring dream, she would have to follow Xu Wendong’s advice.

She looked at Xu Wendong, "So, what’s the consultation fee?"

Xu Wendong, "You’re not taking medicine or getting acupuncture, so there’s no consultation fee needed."

"Thank you!" Yan Liuli expressed her gratitude, then left the clinic swaying in high heels, her voluptuous hips and seductive waist catching Xu Wendong’s gaze as they moved.

"Why do I feel like I’ve seen this woman before?" Xu Wendong furrowed his brows. He had a strong feeling of familiarity with the woman but couldn’t recall where they had met.

Half an hour later, a familiar figure entered the clinic. It was none other than Ding Yao.

She was off work today and came specifically to see Xu Wendong, taking the opportunity to have a deep conversation.

Ever since Xu Wendong had been on an extended leave, life had become unusually dull for her, not as comfortable as when Xu Wendong was around. When Wendong was there, she was free to speak as she wished.

Meanwhile.

A hundred miles away at the Beitun Coal Mine.

Gou Shengli wore a red safety helmet and a red miner’s outfit, with a towel wrapped around his neck and a self-rescuer and headlamp tied to his waist.

Behind him were more than a dozen leaders and district administrators of Beitun Coal Mine, as well as some technicians. Their purpose today was to inspect a new coal mining area.

This coal mining area was located six hundred and eighty meters underground and was newly discovered with abundant coal resources. Once mined, it would undoubtedly yield substantial profits.

"Chairman, the cage lift is up. Shall we descend into the shaft?" The mine manager of Beitun Coal Mine looked respectfully.

Gou Shengli wearily rubbed his brow, "I’m feeling a bit unwell today, so I’ll skip the shaft inspection. We can schedule it for another time."

Ever since Xu Wendong advised him last night not to go to dark places today, he’d been feeling uneasy. The unease was inexplicable, prompting a change in his inspection plans.

None of the others said anything since Gou Shengli was, in fact, the chairman of the group. Who dared to contradict him?

As a result, Gou Shengli changed into casual attire and left the Beitun Coal Mine in a Rolls-Royce. Just as he returned to the county, he received a call and cried out in shock, "What did you say? There’s been a massive collapse in the B2 Coal Mining Area?"
