Xiaohong was lying on a table not far away.

Little Pei kicked his legs and said angrily, "Why did you call me? I still want to sleep!"

"Don't sleep anymore," Cheng Tianbao wanted to pull her up directly, "I saw the person in the room."

"Who is it?"

"That's the dying man," Cheng Tianbao said. "I saw him in the mountains. He turned into a monkey.

Not really, he stole the monkey's body.

Yes……"

Cheng Tianbao's expression was a little tangled, he didn't know what to say,

"Well, you'll know when you go and see for yourself."

"What nonsense! How can someone turn into a monkey?"

The more Pei Xiaohai listened, the more confused he became.

"Where have you been again? Why didn't you come with me?"

"What else!" Cheng Tianbao complained. "I saw you were asleep and felt bored, so I went to the nearby mountains for a walk. But when I came back, no one was there. I searched for ages before I found you. I was even scared by those Taoist priests and witches in the courtyard. Luckily, they were all scammers! Why didn't you wait for me?"

Little Pei didn't even know when he came out, so how could he wait for him.

Pei Xiaohai was still unhappy when this matter was mentioned: "Is this my fault? It's because you always play by yourself secretly. If you stayed in the nunnery, would I still have to wait for you?"

"What am I doing in the nunnery? I don't need to sleep, and it's so boring. Why don't you sleep less and play with me more?"

"If you don't sleep, I'll still sleep. Why don't you wait until I wake up?"

Both the man and the ghost felt that the other was unreasonable, and they started arguing.

Monkeys and people were all forgotten.

Xiaohong heard the noise and turned around a little scared: "Who... who are you talking to?"

Pei Xiaohai:!

"Your young master has turned into a monkey."

"Huh?" Xiaohong thought the child's nonsense probably had a reasonable explanation. "Are you having a nightmare?"

No, Pei Xiaohai was afraid of exposing himself, so he just said it casually.

It's an instinctive reaction and works particularly well.

Xiaohong no longer dwelled on her mumbling, nor did she care about the matter between the young master and the monkey.

Pull the quilt over her:

"Go to sleep, don't be afraid. My young master is a good man. Even if he dies and becomes a ghost, he won't harm anyone."

"That's not necessarily true," Cheng Tianbao shook his head and urged, "Don't lie down, come with me.

If she waited any longer, her young master would be bitten to death by those angry monkeys.

Otherwise, you can tell others to go and save him!"

Pei Xiaohai doesn't want that.

What does this have to do with her?

Besides, didn’t she just say it? Who can she blame if no one believes her?

Meddling in other people's affairs will only bring bad luck.

The child twisted his body and turned over, leaving Cheng Tianbao with a not-so-round back of his head.

Cheng Tianbao looked at her protruding occipital bone and said confidently:

"I was wondering why you were so disobedient. Turns out you have a rebellious streak in your head."

Pei Xiaohai: ...

Is he having a nightmare? Why is he so weird?

"I learned a little bit of face reading from a fortune teller. If you do as I say, I'll take a good look at you, okay?

Being rebellious is not a good thing!" Cheng Tianbao stroked his non-existent beard.

Pei Xiaohai took advantage of Xiaohong's inattention, glared at him, pulled the quilt and covered his head.

Are you taking her for a fool?

What is the meaning of "rebellious and upright"? It's on her, how could she not know whether it's good or not?

Seeing that she was not fooled, Cheng Tianbao couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.

"Why won't this child listen? I have no objection if you don't go, but what if the nuns find out that you didn't help..."

Then she must be opened.

Pei Xiaohai rubbed his butt with a sympathetic look.

"Who would know if you didn't complain?"

Cheng Tianbao: "Hehe."

A cunning smile appeared on his fat face: "It seems...it's time for Cheng Yinggu to go out into the world again."

Little Pei thought of the talking Buddha statue and ran out in his slippers.

This snitch is so annoying!

Xiaohong was pouring water at the table. She glanced away and saw her running away. She hurriedly followed her and asked, "Where are you going?"

Where could little Pei go? She ran into the house and leaned over to talk in her master's ear.

The chanting was interrupted by her.

Donor Qian couldn't help but feel unhappy: "What's going on?"

Xiaohong, who caught up with her, said, "She must have had a nightmare and is scared. It's nothing. I'll take her out right away."

"Oh, forget it," Mrs. Qian sighed, "Just let her stay here, it doesn't matter."

Of course you're sad that your son is dying, and you might not like everything, but there's really no need to blame a child.

Jinghui had already listened to what Pei Xiaohai said. She was a little hesitant at first, but after hearing what Old Lady Qian said, she still wanted to speak out. However, doing so... would expose her disciple's secret.

Well, at worst I can just leave here.

Jinghui touched the child's head.

"Please ask the two benefactors to dismiss the attendants. I have something important to tell you."

Although the two were puzzled, they still agreed, asked the outsiders and the maids to leave, and closed the door.

……

In just a few words, Jinghui told all the stories.

Pei Da Nu was a little dazed: "The nun is saying that my sister... can see ghosts."

"exactly."

"What a joke!" Miss Pei stood up excitedly. "Apart from anything else, my parents-in-law have always respected monks and Taoists. Now that something like this has happened at home, if you don't want to help, just leave. Why are you teasing us with such words?

Do you also want to..."

"My dear daughter, don't be rude." Old Madam Qian was also a little surprised when she heard this, but she still stepped forward to stop her and prevented her from saying more unpleasant words.

Miss Pei simply suspected that Jinghui and the others were defrauding people of their money.

But what the Qian family cares least about now is money, otherwise they would not have hired a yard full of Taoist priests and witches.

They knew that many of these people might not have the ability to communicate with ghosts and gods, and might not even be able to come up with a good prescription, but they still wanted to give it a try.

Donor Qian took a few shaky steps, bent down and asked Pei Xiaohai: "Child, is this true?"

Little Pei grabbed her master's clothes, half of her body hidden behind her. Only when she met the cloudy old eyes did she nod.

"Okay, okay," the old donor Qian straightened up. "Auntie and Young Master, if you need us to prepare anything, just tell us. As long as it can save my son's life, even if it means rebuilding the temple for Yinggu and re-building her golden statue, we will have no objections."

Jingchi felt warmed up when he heard this, and he wanted to ask Pei Xiaohai to agree immediately.

Jingneng couldn't help but look at the child with concern.

Only Jinghui is more rational.

They live in a remote and poor place. If that really happens, the Qian family will be ruined.

Besides, no one in the yard can do anything about this kind of thing, so who can guarantee it?

"Kid, does Tianbao have any way to save people?"

Pei Xiaohai looked at Cheng Tianbao who was looking very proud and said, "I'm asking you."

Cheng Tianbao: "Is there even a need to ask? Of course you guys should come with me and bring him back quickly. Do you know how hard those monkeys beat him when they found out he had turned into a monkey?

It bit him and made him howl. It almost plucked out all his hair..."

Cheng Tianbao kept on rambling, and Pei Xiaohai said:

"He was beaten by other monkeys. We have to bring him back first."

"What will happen after you bring it back?" Pei Da Nu interrupted.

Cheng Tianbao: "Then who knows."

Pei Xiaohai: "I don't know."

Pei Da Nu felt so complicated that she suddenly felt dizzy.

Don't blame her. Anyone who thinks that they might spend the rest of their life with monkeys would be dizzy.

The monkeys here... don't have a very good reputation.

She could faint, but she couldn't be a father and mother. Even if her son turned into a monkey, a mouse or a centipede, they would still want to find him.

Jinghui begged them to keep Pei Xiaohai's secret, so they said that it was Qian Daniu who sent Pei Xiaohai a dream asking for help.

It’s hard to say whether others believe it or not, but they couldn’t think of a better reason at the moment.

He hurriedly invited some relatives and neighbors and rushed to the mountain that Cheng Tianbao pointed to.

By the time we reached the foot of the mountain, it was almost dawn.

Cheng Tianbao said, "I'll go and see if he's still there. You just lead them up."

Little Pei nodded imperceptibly, he was already too sleepy to bear it any longer.

If Jinghui hadn't patted her from time to time, she would have fallen asleep.

Everyone was also worried, thinking that such a child was unreliable and the mountain was dangerous.

Some people began to hesitate and fell behind.

The group walked slower and slower. Old Donor Qian was too old and weak to come, so the leader was his nephew. Seeing how messed up they were, he had no choice but to ask, "Young Master, how far is it to the place my cousin told you about?"

Pei Xiaohai has become very skilled at being perfunctory:

"Almost there, almost there. Keep going up, we'll be there soon."

Donor Qian's nephew looked in the direction she pointed, his expression indescribable: "That's full of thorns. Are you sure it's this direction?"

Jinghui shook her dozing head: "Child, wake up."

Pei Xiaohai pouted. She didn’t want to wake up. She wanted to cry. She knew it!

Meddling in other people’s business will only bring bad luck!
