"So what's next? You and I pretty much know the general situation. ”

"You go to be a paper figure first. Follow the method I taught you earlier. After you get it done, you have to find a way to secretly hide this paper figure on Lu Shuangsheng's body, so as not to let him find out. 』

Shen Qingyun found a piece of paper, cut it into seven inches high, muttered for a while in the candlelight, and finally took a breath and blew it on the paper.

In an instant, the paper figure stood up tremblingly, stopped in mid-air, Shen Qingyun casually called it a few words to make sure that it could move, and with a close palm, it consciously burrowed into the sleeve and hid it.

When he got out of school the next day, Shen Qingyun used the excuse of helping Lu Shuangsheng carry the bookbag, and let the paper man quietly get into his bookbag while he was not paying attention, and only then did he relax when he was sure that Lu Shuangsheng took it to the carriage.

Back at Shen's house, Shen Qingyun wanted to go back to the house early to rest under the pretext of being unhappy. Shen Yuyin was worried about him, and Shen Qingyun comforted her that she was in good health, but she wanted to rest early because she was sleepy.

Back in the courtyard, Shen Qingyun told his subordinates that he would not call them tonight if he had nothing to do, so that they would not have to be at any time. To be on the safe side, he placed a seal on the doors and windows to ensure that no sound leaked out.

After washing, Shen Qingyun lay on the bed and closed his eyes, and his consciousness gradually faded away.

When I woke up again, it was dark. As if out of his body, Shen Qingyun's consciousness was attached to the paper figure, and he followed the Lu family's carriage to the Lu family, and he could even clearly hear the conversation between Mrs. Lu and Lu Shuangsheng.

Entering the gate of the Lu family, Shen Qingyun followed Lu Shuangsheng back to his house. Lu Shuangsheng's father hasn't come home yet, and Mrs. Lu is also busy decocting medicine for Lu Shuangsheng, this matter must not be handed over to the next person to do, she has to take care of it herself to rest assured.

As soon as Mrs. Lu left, the paper dared to slip out of the bookbag, looked around, and took advantage of the gap between Lu Shuangsheng's regular clothes to get out of the gap in the window.

Although the Lu family is not as wide as the Shen family, it is also a big mansion with two entrances and two exits, and the paper people are swaying and patrolling. When passing by a courtyard with a locked gate, Shen Qingyun heard "him" whisper: "This is it." ”

Lu Shuangsheng told Shen Qingyun before that since his sister died, because he was afraid that Mrs. Lu would see things and think about people, the house where Lu Shengge lived before was locked, but the furnishings inside still maintained the appearance of Lu Shengge before his death.

The paper figure tried to fly in from the edge of the wall, but was cut off by an invisible barrier. It riveted a few times and still couldn't get in, this barrier could block the breath of the living, but it couldn't stop the other. "He" shouted softly, "Open!"

Shen Qingyun couldn't see anything, but he could feel that the invisible resistance that had stopped him just now instantly turned into nothingness, and at the same time, a damp and moldy smell and the smell of dust that had accumulated for a long time came to his face. Obviously, he was only a soul body and couldn't take physical damage, but he was caught off guard and sneezed.

The courtyard was overgrown with weeds, moss, and barren. The paper man entered the back room unimpeded. In stark contrast to the desolation of the outer courtyard, the interior displays a large Nanmu bed, a pink curtain, dusty silk dolls, unfinished woven gadgets, and various artificially carved villain motifs. One by one, the traces of the owner of this house who once lived here and left a trace.

Although Lu Shengge was suffering from illness before her death, her parents did not treat her badly at least in terms of living conditions, and they don't know where her resentment came from.

Then it's "his" time. I don't know what spell "he" cast, the scene in front of Shen Qingyun's eyes changed in an instant.

It seemed that a long time had passed, and all kinds of pictures and all kinds of noisy voices poured into Shen Qingyun's mind in unison, which was overwhelming.

It took a long time for the picture to freeze in one scene. Shen Qingyun stood on one side, unable to touch or speak, and could only silently watch everything that had happened here as a bystander.

The room in front of me was still inhabited, with open bedding, vases with flowers, and used medicine bowls on the table. It was obviously the girl's boudoir, but the air was filled with a strong smell of medicine, and there was a heavy incense burning to try to cover it up, and the two smells were mixed together to make people breathless.

Shen Qingyun thought of Shen Yuyin inexplicably, her body was always a faint fragrance of honey locust, at most it was the smell of jasmine head oil, which smelled much better than this incense that smoked the dead.

A noise came from outside the house, Shen Qingyun looked sideways, and saw a strange man rushing into the house with a small figure in his arms, followed by the anxious Mrs. Lu.

As soon as Mr. Lu put the person on the bed, a doctor holding the medical box also followed into the room, Mr. Lu hurriedly moved him to the side, stood aside with Mrs. Lu, looked at the little man on the bed worriedly, and said eagerly: "Doctor, please save my daughter!"

The little man on the bed was pale at this time, his eyes were sunken, his lips did not even have a trace of blood, his breathing was light and not even the ups and downs were obvious, and his consciousness was not clear, as if a gust of wind could disappear at any time.

This little girl looks exactly the same as the little ghost Shen Qingyun saw before, she should be Lu Shengge.

Shen Qingyun listened to the doctor's diagnosis of Lu Shengge's condition. Lu Shengge has been frail and sickly since she was a child, hovering on the edge of life and death at any time, but her parents have never wanted to give up on her, and they are trying their best to save her life every time.

It's just that Lu Shengge is still losing weight day by day at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his cheeks, which were already meatless, are gradually thinning and revealing his cheekbones.

Although the Lu family is a merchant, it is obvious that Master Lu's progress in earning silver cannot catch up with the cost of hiring a doctor when Lu Shengge became ill, and the Lu family's originally not solid family foundation is gradually stretched, and the burden is also worse.

The Lu family and his wife did not avoid her when discussing Lu Shengge's condition, probably they thought that Lu Shengge was still young and ignorant.

On this day, the Lu family and his wife talked about her condition for a while in front of Lu Shengge, I don't know what to say, Master Lu was full of sadness, but all the anxiety finally turned into a sigh, he said: "In short, I will find a way to deal with the silver, we only have one child, Shengge." ”

He glanced at Lu Shengge, who was lying on the bed temporarily recovering and playing with the silk doll, and raised his hand to touch her, but in the end he still hung down and quietly left the house.

Although Lu Shengge is young, she knows everything in her heart, but she is really powerless, she can only endure the pain caused by the illness as much as possible, and do not show it on her face to worry her parents.

After Mrs. Lu waited for Master Lu to leave, she ordered someone to bring the decocted medicine, sat in front of Lu Shengge's bed, gently stroked her cheek, and said, "Shengge, it's time to take medicine." ”

Compared with his father, who sighs all day long, Lu Shengge prefers gentle mothers.

The medicinal taste was fishy, bitter and sour, Lu Shengge endured the discomfort and drank it all, Mrs. Lu immediately handed over a candy and praised: "Shengge is awesome!"

Lu Shengge likes to eat candy, and Mrs. Lu specially bought her favorite marzipan for her. Every time she didn't want to drink the medicine, Mrs. Lu gave her a candy, and Lu Shengge gave up holding her nose and drinking the medicine every time for that hint of sweetness.

"As long as Shengge obediently takes medicine, he can have sugar every day. ”

Lu Shengge's pale face barely squeezed out a satisfied smile, and said obediently: "Okay!"

The picture suddenly distorted and blurred, and the scene changed accordingly, until everything was still, there was no one in the room, but the furnishings in the house were exactly the same as what Shen Qingyun had just seen when he entered the house.

Although Lu Shengge worked hard to take medicine and cheer herself up every day, she still couldn't resist the invasion of the disease, and she would never be in pain again.

Shen Qingyun watched the Lu family and his wife hugging their heads and crying, endured great grief to put Lu Shengge in new clothes, put her in the coffin, and then reluctantly sent her into the loess.

However, I don't know what went wrong, Lu Shengge's originally dead soul never left, but returned to the Lu family.

Lu Shengge was very happy, because she found that her weakness and illness were gone, and she could still be with her favorite mother forever.

As the days passed, Mrs. Lu, who was distracted and haggard, gradually regained her calm. Mr. Lu's business has also turned around the difficulties and improved the family's strapped economy.

Two years later, Mrs. Lu became pregnant again. Lu Shengge watched her experience October pregnancy by Mrs. Lu's side, and once she gave birth, she gave birth to Lu Shuangsheng.

Mrs. Lu is very precious to this hard-won single seedling, and she stays by Lu Shuangsheng's side anytime and anywhere, accompanying him from a baby in swaddling clothes to growing up, from delicate and weak to learning to crawl, walk, and babble.

Lu Shengge also protects his younger brother's safety at any time, after all, adults always have negligence, and an accident is likely to be fatal for children who can't speak.

One day, Lu Shuangsheng was lying on the bed playing, his black eyes rolled, and suddenly he seemed to have found something novel, and crawled over to grope for it. Lu Shengge looked at it from behind him, and it turned out to be an almond candy.

Lu Shengge was both happy and nostalgic, "It's the candy that my mother used to give me before, but unfortunately I can't eat it now." ”

Lu Shuangsheng also seemed to be very interested in this candy, he stretched out his white chubby hand and grabbed the candy and wanted to stuff it into his mouth. Lu Shengge watched but couldn't stop it, so he could only scream in surprise to try to attract his younger brother's attention.

Mrs. Lu didn't know when she appeared. She was as hot as if she was being burned, and while drinking Lu Shuangsheng's attempt to stuff the candy into her mouth, she swooped forward and snatched the candy from Lu Shuangsheng's hand, then walked out of the door and threw the candy into the air.

The air froze instantly, and Lu Shengge and Lu Shuangsheng all looked at their mothers in a daze.

After a long time, Mrs. Lu's voice came faintly, "This candy can't be eaten......

Lu Shengge's pupils shrank sharply, staring at his mother's back, his face full of disbelief.

"This home...... I don't need to feed the kids candy anymore......"

Mrs. Lu turned her face, and Lu Shengge looked at her mother's half-open face in the shadows and the pair of dark eyes without any emotion.

She suddenly understood everything.

From that day on, Lu Shuangsheng began to get ill inexplicably, just like Lu Shengge at the beginning, lingering on the sickbed and miserable, and the Lu family's happy life for two years was ruthlessly shattered by reality again.
