Demon King's Repayment - chapter 57
“Meow, it’s really interesting. It turns out that humans can also transform into such a small form,” Wu Yuan circled the ceramic doll which was much smaller than him, curiously trying to reach out and push lightly.
Yuan Xiang was afraid that he would break it by mistake and hurriedly stopped him. She reached out and lifted the two-inch porcelain figure up and placed it with the other porcelain figure on the desk.
Before going to bed, she and Han Rui on the desk said goodnight, “Doctor Han, take a good rest. A friend of mine may know the whereabouts of your little boy. I will take you to look for him tomorrow.”
Han Rui softly responded in the dimness.
When Yuan Xiang turned to leave, she glanced back. The little Dr. Han stood there quietly, another lifeless porcelain figure in a dress accompanied by his side. The two of them stood shoulder to shoulder, like him and his wife before. He comforted his wife to let go of her obsession and go for reincarnation, but he could not let go of his concern for his child. He stayed alone in a world that no longer belonged to him and broke into the drugstore in spite of the danger just to find the whereabouts of his child.
Early the next morning, Yuan Xiang packed up the necessary supplies and said goodbye to Ru Shi.
“Shiniang, I am going to Ah Teng’s house to play. She lives a little far away. Maybe I won’t be back tonight.”
Ru Shi had never interfered with her actions, she only packed a pile of cakes for her, “Every time she comes, she brings something. You also give some of our snacks to her. Say hello to her for me.”
Nan He’s body was still very weak and there were many demons in Celestial Wolf mountain who wanted to injure him. It was not appropriate to take him. Yuan Xiang placed him on the mat in a bamboo basket and entrusted him to Ru Shi, “Xiao Nan doesn’t eat things that others have touched, nor does he use the bowls and chopsticks that others have used. This is the bowl he uses for eating and this one is for drinking water,” Yuan Xiang took out Nan He’s daily utensils and explained.
“I will change his bandage when I come back. Don’t let him touch the water. If the sun is shining during the day, let him bask in the yard for a while. But don’t put him and Xiao Hei together. Be sure to keep them alone in a clean place that is cushioned. He is still very weak and shouldn’t catch a cold.”
She babbled a lot of things, but she was still worried. She squatted down, put a folded talisman on Nan He’s mat and quietly said to him, “This is a sound transmission talisman, but it’s difficult to make. I only have these two. After injecting Qi into it, what you say will be passed to me and you can only use it three times. If you face any problem, you can use it to contact me.”
Nan He lowered his head silently, stretched out his claws to pull the triangle talisman under his body and pressed it. He turned his head, not looking at her anymore, not at the arrogant cat demon that was on her shoulder.
“Listen to Shiniang’s words and take care of yourself. I will be back soon,” Yuan Xiang touched his head.
“Okay, I will take care of him. I will definitely treat him better than you. Don’t worry,” Ru Shi smiled and sent her out.
Yuan Xiang carried a bamboo basket on her back. In the bamboo basket were Han Rui’s porcelain figure and the supplies she needed to go up the mountain. She waved goodbye.
“Okay, only the two of us are left. What do you want to eat at noon?” Ru Shi held Nan He’s basket up, “Xiang’er said you love mutton, should I stew mutton soup?”
She saw the droopy dog ​​in the basket nodding his head.
“Our Xiao Nan is really smart, as if you can understand. No wonder Xiang’er likes you so much.” Ru Shi walked to the kitchen with the basket, “You don’t know, Xiang’er was sad during your absence. She talked about you everyday. She kept everything you used before and did not let Wu Yuan touch it. She often takes them out to bask in the sun.”
The white dog in the basket raised his ears and his amber eyes looked at her motionlessly, listening carefully so as to not miss a word.
The Shikigami wearing a silver sharp-mouthed mask was flying forward and a silver thread was drawn from the bottom of his body, which was a few inches high. A long silver light was left wherever he went. As it continued to move forward, it was like a thread had come out from the sweater starting from the legs which decreased in circles. The silver on legs disappeared, the body disappeared and the head wearing the sharp-mouth mask was only a little bit left and finally disappeared into the air.
(Shikigami: In Japan or China, it refers to the spirit body (ghost) used by the onmyoji. It is usually formed by paper-cutting, and can be summoned by the control of spells. They’re typically used to carry out risky tasks, such as spying, stealing, and tracking enemies.)
Yuan Xiang walked through the forest in winter following the silver light left on the road. She used the scent left on the bamboo cage that Hui Teng had bought to summon Shikigami to find Hui Teng’s place, but since it was a long time ago, the smell left by her was too weak and the journey into the mountain was too long. Shikigami had lost its effect before finding the exact location.
She could only look around first.
