Seeing Pangdun staring at Wang Qian's father foolishly, I helplessly pushed him aside, then suddenly picked up a bowl and a pair of chopsticks from the table.
I handed the bowl and chopsticks to Wang Qian, saying, "Use the chopsticks to tap the bowl, face it outside, tap it three times and call your father's name once, and your father will wake up."
"Really?" Wang Qian took the bowl and chopsticks with a happy face and started tapping. With each tap, Wang Qian shouted, "Dad, come back."
It's estimated that she had shouted about twenty times. Suddenly, a gust of cold wind blew through the room, and with Wang Qian's continuous tapping, the cold wind became more intense, but Wang Qian's father still did not wake up.
Helplessly, I suddenly took out the ancient copper coin and opened the Heavenly Eye again: Open the Supreme Underworld Heavenly Eye, clear the boundaries between Yin and Yang. No ghost or demon can escape, all the evil will be revealed.
As soon as the Heavenly Eye opened, my brows immediately furrowed. I saw that Wang Qian's father's soul had indeed been called back by Wang Qian, but instead of returning to his body, it was hiding in a corner of the room.
Helplessly, I had to pull out a bunch of red strings, tied a loop on one end, and then threw it towards Wang Qian's father's soul. Without deviation, the red string just looped around Wang Qian's father's neck.
Then, with a tug, I directly pulled Wang Qian's father's soul over and into his own body. At the same time, the red string fell to the ground, and Wang Qian's father suddenly sat up from the bed.
"Where is this?" Wang Qian's father looked around, surprised, and asked.
Hearing Wang Qian's father speak, Wang Qian suddenly burst into tears and rushed to hug him, "Dad, you finally woke up. You don't know, your soul almost couldn't come back these days. You made me worry for several days."
Being hugged by Wang Qian, her father gently patted her shoulder but then spoke sternly, "Qianqian, what soul out-of-body experience? Stop messing around. Tell me where we are and why we are here?"
"Dad," hearing her father's words, Wang Qian let go of her hands and looked at her father with a puzzled expression, "You don't believe me, do you? Your soul really left your body, and it was my classmate who saved you. He almost got into trouble himself."
As she spoke, Wang Qian looked at me. At the same time, Wang Qian's father also looked over. But then he suddenly exclaimed, "Nonsense, Qianqian! The idea of souls leaving the body and playing tricks on people is all nonsense. You are too young and easily fooled by others."
"Dad, it's true," Wang Qian began to argue.
Hearing Wang Qian's father say that, I was not surprised. In fact, when Wang Qian's father's soul left his body, although his soul saw me and Pang Dun, at that time his soul had no subjective consciousness. Even if Wang Qian's father remembered, he would only consider it a dream.
So, it was normal for Wang Qian's father not to remember his out-of-body experience.
Wang Qian looked helpless and wanted to continue arguing with her father, but I suddenly said, "Uncle Wang, it's actually not like what Wang Qian said. You simply fainted, and I know a bit about traditional Chinese medicine, so I healed you."
"Duan Mu?" At this point, Wang Qian looked at me in astonishment, completely puzzled.
I didn't pay attention to Wang Qian and continued to say to her father, "But I never thought Wang Qian would be so naive. I told her that your soul left your body, and she actually believed it."
"See?" At this point, Wang Qian's father looked at her seriously and said, "I told you these soul out-of-body experiences are deceptive. I've been dealing with antiques all my life, how come I've never encountered anything supernatural?"
I was speechless but didn't say anything else. At this point, Wang Qian's father got out of bed and placed his hand on Wang Qian's shoulder, saying, "Anyway, thank this young man for curing me. If there's nothing else, we won't disturb you. Qianqian, let's go home."
"Dad." At this time, Wang Qian suddenly shouted, "Do you believe your daughter at all? Do you think I would lie to you? Your soul really left your body, and we can't leave. It will be dangerous if we do."
"Wang Qian." At this point, I suddenly shouted at Wang Qian, "How can you speak to your dad like that? If he wants to leave, you should take him home."
"You..." Wang Qian looked at me, her eyes filling with tears, probably feeling extremely wronged. She suddenly snorted, "Fine, since it's like this, staying here is pointless. Dad, let's go, whether we live or die, it's our own business."
With that, Wang Qian and her father left.
Silently watching Wang Qian and her father's figures, Pang Dun, Uncle Er, and I all fell into silence.
Suddenly, Pang Dun clenched his fists and looked at me with gritted teeth, "Duan Mu, I didn't expect you to be so narrow-minded. You know they are walking to their death, yet you let your anger drive them away just because of a few words from Wang Qian's father?"
I ignored Pang Dun and started packing my bag, then went to the cabinet to find my dry clothes. Instead, Uncle Er patted Pang Dun's shoulder and said, "Calm down, calm down, little fatty."
"Uncle, are you also as ruthless as Duan Mu?" Seeing Uncle Er's appearance, Pang Dun also asked, puzzled.
At that moment, I had already changed my clothes and walked over, patting Pang Dun's shoulder, "Why are you so talkative? Hurry up, we have work to do."
"Where are we going again? I'm not going." Pang Dun said fiercely.
Seeing Pang Dun like this, I really couldn't help but smile bitterly. I had to explain helplessly, "Pang Dun, we grew up together and even wore the same pants after we went to school. Do you think I am that kind of person?"
"Huh?" Pang Dun came to his senses, "Then why did you say those things to Wang Qian's father and drive them away?"
I pointed at my brain and helplessly said, "My intelligence is really lacking. If I were to forcibly tell Wang Qian's father that his soul had left his body, do you think he would believe it? Also, to save Wang Qian's father, we need to ask Nie Wei about his whereabouts. Do you think if we ask directly, Wang Qian's father will tell us?"
"So, you mean you want to drive them away?" Fat Dumpling said, looking puzzled.
Once again, I felt helpless, "Have you become too fat to use your brain? If I don't drive them away, will Nie Wei dare to show up?"
"You want to use them to lure Nie Wei out?" Finally, Fat Dumpling understood.
"What do you mean by using them to lure him out? That sounds so harsh," I shook my head gently. "I just want Nie Wei to come and help us explain."
