Deadly Twelve Days

Immediately, he turned around and carried a large box filled with all kinds of toys. I picked up a remote control car in the shape of a police car from inside. This toy didn't have any other characteristics except that it was loud and that was the effect I wanted.

Without saying anything further, I controlled the toy to spin around in Sun Wu's room. From time to time, I would deliberately hit Sun Wu's door with my car.

Sure enough, after a while, a small crack appeared on Sun Hu's door. Two rolling eyes peeked out of the crack. I pretended not to see them and continued playing.

A short while later, Sun Hu finally opened the door and walked out. He grabbed the police car that was still running on the ground and was about to rush into the house without saying a word.

At the same time, I felt a wave of cold. I felt my body tremble slightly, as if there was a force pushing against me.

I was already prepared. Without saying anything further, I opened my Yin Eye and saw a ball of misty light floating in front of me. From time to time, it would crash towards my body.

I faintly smiled. It seemed that the group of ghosts protecting Xiaohu had already been worn out by the astral winds. Their strength was quite limited.

I chanted the incantation according to Yi Yun's diary. A faintly discernible stream of air surrounded my palm. I saw that the timing was right, so I grabbed the ball of light and held it in my hand.

The moment I grabbed the ball of light, it began to struggle violently, like a ball of cotton that was constantly swaying, but I wasn't willing to let go. I was completely certain that as long as I destroyed the ball of light, the strange thing that happened to Little Tiger would disappear.

"Let go of my grandma!" All I could hear was Little Tiger screaming as he pounced towards me like an angry little beast and tried to grab my hands with all his might.

"Grandmother?" When I heard this, I was stunned. This ball of light is his grandmother?

As for Sun Sheng, he was even more shocked. His face immediately paled as he walked to Sun Hu's side, trembling, and asked, "Tiger, what did you just say?"

"I want you to let go of my grandmother!" Hu Zi was extremely stubborn. He ignored Sun Sheng and tried to bite my arm, but the moment he raised his head, he was stopped by Sun Sheng.

Looking at Sun Hu's flustered red eyes, I couldn't help but have an idea in my mind.

Thus, I lowered my body and looked at Sun Hu. "How about we make a deal?"

Sun Hu didn't say anything. He just looked at me with hatred in his eyes.

I ignored him and raised my hand to grab the ball of light. "This is our secret. I won't tell anyone else. What do you think?"

Sun Hu raised his head and looked at the ball of light in my hand before nodding.

I nodded to the anxious Sun Sheng and followed Sun Hu into his room.

The curtains in Sun Hu's room were drawn tightly, making him look especially dark. It seemed that this child was truly lonely and reclusive.

After closing the door, I found a place to sit down and released my hand, allowing the ball of light to once again protect Sun Hu.

"Little Tiger, tell Uncle, how did you know it was your grandmother?"

"She is my grandmother, I can see her." Sun Hu replied timidly.

After I heard that, I raised my head to look at the ball of light. It seems that the person who has been protecting Sun Hu is his grandmother. However, she stayed in the mortal world for too long and was on the verge of losing her soul.

I remember there's a method to nurture a soul in Yi Yun's notes, which is by sacrificing the blood of a living person. It can nurture a ghost to a certain degree, but when I saw that place, I still had a feeling that someone was so stupid as to use blood to nurture a ghost.

But now, to find out the truth of the matter, I'm afraid I'll have to use this method.

So I looked at the blob of light and asked, "Can you hear me?"

The ball of light shook up and down. It seemed that apart from being unable to speak, everything else was normal.

"I'll use my blood to feed you now, but after I ask you something, you have to answer it for me. Do you agree?"

The ball of light trembled.

I nodded my head and picked up a knife that was placed on the table beside me. I lightly cut a small wound on my finger and dark red blood immediately gushed out from the wound.

"Hurry up!" Normally, I didn't feel anything when I accidentally injured myself, but now that I took the initiative to cut my finger, it really hurt a little. I grinned and shouted towards the ball of light.

The ball of light instantly floated to the side of my finger and wrapped around the finger that was bleeding profusely. Under the nourishment of my blood, the ball of light flickered with a flickering red light.

A few minutes later, when my fingers felt numb, the figure finally became clear. It was actually the old lady I had seen in the photo earlier.

"Thank you." The old lady respectfully said. She then walked next to Sun Hu and kept touching Sun Wu's head. Her face was full of kindness.

"You stayed in the mortal world for Xiaohu?" I asked what seemed like nonsense, just to make sure the old lady meant it.

"Don't you know it's bad for him?" It was normal for a deceased elder to miss his family, but it was quite rare for the old lady to be like this.

"Understood," the old lady replied, her voice hoarse.

"I order you to go back in the name of Yin. Otherwise, you know the consequences …" I clenched my teeth and forced myself to say.

"You're not allowed to chase my grandma away!" Sun Hu's face hardened as he clenched his fists in anger.

I ignored Xiaohu and said to the old lady, "Yang is the way to go, Yin is the way to go. Since you don't belong to this world, there is no need for you to continue pestering me. This is good for both you and the living."

"I know." The old lady sighed and looked at Sun Hu with reluctance. Finally, she suddenly raised her head and said with a sinister look in her eyes, "If I don't protect him, I'm afraid he won't live for long."

"Why?" I was surprised and thought he wouldn't live long if you followed him like this.

"It's all because of his father." The old lady wiped her eyes, though there were no tears.

The old lady then explained in detail about the whole situation.

It turned out that ever since Sun Sheng had married Xiao Yue, Xiao Yue had doted on Sun Sheng in front of him. However, she had secretly used all means at her disposal to torture Sun Wu, such as not giving him food or beating him up.

Moreover, the most insidious part about this woman was that she had used all sorts of methods to beat Sun Wu. For example, she had pierced him with needles, hit him from behind a book, or hit his feet from a hidden place.

In the beginning, Sun Wu had tried to complain, but unfortunately, Sun Sheng was not injured after a thorough inspection. In addition, he was busy with business and had not spent much effort.

Thus, Sun Hu became more and more disappointed. In the end, no matter what happened to Xiao Yue, he would not complain and he would still bear the consequences himself.

At the same time, Xiao Yue became even more serious. She would occasionally poison Sun Hu's food, but she did not dare poison him. Instead, she would put some of her family's medicines and outdated medicines into Xiao Hu's food.

When Sun Sheng brought Sun Hu to the grave, the old granny found out. Thus, she quietly followed beside Sun Hu. As for the bowl of silver ear soup that Sun Sheng mentioned, the old granny knew that it was drugged, so she purposely spilled it.

I looked at Sun Hu and saw that he was crying when he heard it. It seemed that what the old lady said was true, so I couldn't help but gasp. I thought to myself, that woman looks good, but I didn't expect her to be so sinister.

However, the old lady couldn't do this, so I said to her, "But how long can you protect your child?"

"I can take care of her for one day, but I can take care of her for one minute." The old lady sighed and patted Hu Zi's head with a benevolent expression.

I couldn't help but think that if this matter was to be removed from the root, the most important thing would be to establish Sun Sheng's image as the father in Sun Hu's heart. Thus, I nodded and said to the old lady: "I'll call Sun Sheng here and explain everything that you should say.

The old lady hesitated for a moment before silently nodding.

I heaved a sigh of relief, turned around, and opened the door. I called in the expectant Sun Sheng.
