Wu Xie and his group had been on the move for over a month when Xie Yuhua received a call for help from Wu Xie: Xiao Ge had lost his memory.

Although he really didn't want to deal with this mess, the guy should at least know where the child was and was entrusted with the task, so the person sent to pick him up found a nearby hospital and took him in.

Only Fatty came back first. He bought a lot of wine, and the first thing he did when he got back was to sneak into the secretly set up mourning hall and say that he wanted to offer incense to Lingzi.

Seeing his listless state, Xieyuhua didn't stop him. She stepped aside to let him in, only telling him not to drink too much and cause trouble inside.

"I know, I understand." The fat man chuckled as he went inside, closed the door, and then plopped down on the ground opposite the mourning hall.

He took out the prepared wine from the bag, opened the cap, and started drinking it himself.

"What's the point of you turning me into a photograph? Come on over and drink with your fat grandpa. Let me tell you, you can't keep playing the 'boy who cried wolf' story forever. After a while, nobody will believe you anymore." He muttered to himself as he took another big gulp, then stumbled to his feet and said, "They all say you're dead, but I don't believe it. I'll dig three feet into the ground and dig you out! That's what we do. I'm a tomb raider, can't I dig out my brother? But they won't let me speak, Lingzi, I'm so wronged."

Fatty's been looking for you for ages! I'm so useless, they all have their own connections to find you, Fatty...

They've been searching for so long that even Master Hua has fallen ill, and Little Brother has lost his memory. Tianzhen says he's afraid to come back.

I never imagined the four of us would end up like this. The fat man spilled the rest of the wine on the ground.

“I don’t want to give you any. I’d rather pour this wine out and give it to the earth than give it to you. Who told you to keep scaring us?” Then he picked up an apple from the table and continued to sit on the ground and eat it.

"Master Hua is really stingy. He won't even put out a chair for you. What's the point of putting out a bunch of fruit if you can't eat any of it?"

Do you even know where we went this time? I, Fatty, came back from the brink of death and came to see you the moment I arrived. Aren't you a good friend?

It's really unbelievable. On the bus to Tamutuo, that woman named Aning brought a lot of realgar, mugwort, and other random snake-repelling stuff. The whole bus smelled terrible. If you didn't know better, you'd think the White Snake Lady had come out of Leifeng Pagoda. Guess what that woman said?

The woman said she was cursed, and the naive man asked her why she still believed in such things, and what kind of curse it was. She said she would be bitten to death by a snake, right here, on the carotid artery in her neck. The fat man even gestured to his own carotid artery.

"I asked her again who cast the curse, whether she had been cursed in Thailand or something. Her face turned black, and she said it was Lingzi who said it. You don't know how much we laughed at that moment."

And guess what? This woman actually got bitten by a snake while washing her face. How did you know that, kid? No wonder you got struck by lightning. But at least she was prepared this time, as she had put a big iron ring around her neck. The snake bit her shoulder; it was a little venomous, but not much, and the woman immediately used the antivenom she had with her.

Do you think this counts as doing a good deed and accumulating merit? But that woman isn't a good person, so I don't know if it counts as accumulating merit.

Now, Fatty, think about it: you always seem to be cursed by heaven. Is it because you've revealed too much of this?

According to Fatty, you revealed the wrong numbers. If you had told Fatty the winning numbers for the next Mark Six lottery earlier, you definitely wouldn't have gotten struck by lightning.
