Chương 10: Chapter 10: Willow Leaves, Well Water, Kitchen Knife

Ma Hong heard the voice of the Female Drought Demon and immediately walked toward the direction from which it came, but he couldn't see her. His body fell to the ground, and his hands searched the ground from time to time.

In your eyes, the Female Drought Demon's hand had long overlapped with Ma Hong's, although Ma Hong could neither see nor feel it.

Huang Xiaomao quietly walked up to you and said softly, "Brother Li, can't you let Boss see the Female Drought Demon? Since the two of them know each other, it would be better to let them resolve it themselves."

Now it was your turn to be perplexed. In fact, you didn't know much about this area; you just liked reading supernatural novels, so you knew a bit, and all that knowledge was just theoretical. Whether it would be successful was unknown.

However, since you were already here, you planned to bring a perfect ending to this matter.

"Huang Xiaomao, go outside and break off some Willow Branches from the riverbank. The leaves need to be as tender as possible, and fetch some Well Water."

Upon hearing this, Huang Xiaomao immediately ordered his men to take care of it. After they had prepared everything, you picked a few fresh and tender Willow leaves and threw them into a basin filled with ice-cold Well Water. Then, you gently applied two of the leaves to Huang Xiaomao's eyelids.

After Huang Xiaomao opened his eyes, he shook his head at you.

You scratched your head, muttering to yourself, "Strange, the Willow Tree gathers Yin, and Willow leaves soaked in Well Water should activate the Heavenly Eyes for a short time. This method should work."

In your understanding, there weren't many ways to Open the Heavenly Eyes. The only thing left was Cow's Tears, but that wasn't something you could find in an instant.

Having no other choice, you decided to ask your mother for advice.

After the phone was connected, you briefly explained the situation to her. She sighed lightly and said, "You always realize the importance of learning too late, don't you? Most of those supernatural novels you read are written by youngsters. What do they know? Most are just echoing others, and some are outright copied from stories."

You hurriedly flattered her, "That's true, Mom, who could compare to a peerless beauty like you?"

"Stop buttering up your old mom. I'm telling you, since Mrs. Hao has asked you to do this, you have to do it well. Using Willow leaves to Open the Heavenly Eyes is feasible, but you need some Dao Power. Where would a greenhorn like you get that? As for Cow's Tears, don't even think about it. They used to be available, but now cows are bred, not pure, and tears won't work."

You scratched your head again. "There must be some way, right?"

"Have someone go to the hotel kitchen and get a kitchen knife that's used daily for butchering chickens, ducks, and fish."

"And then?"

"Use an iron basin to hold the Well Water, put the kitchen knife in it, and after a few minutes of soaking, an ordinary person can see the ghost's reflection in the water of the basin."

"Is that possible?"

"Stop talking nonsense; just go and do it. That's the only method you can use right now. After this matter is resolved, make sure to go to your residence early. And if it's not necessary, just turn off your cell phone."

"Okay, I got it."

Following the method described by your mom, Ma Hong, Huang Xiaomao, and the others indeed saw the Female Drought Demon, Little Mei, in the reflection of the basin.

Just as Huang Xiaomao had said earlier, this was Ma Hong's personal matter, and from that point forward, it was left to Ma Hong to resolve.

Besides, your ability only went so far.

Huang Xiaomao was the local leader, and he was very familiar with this area. He gave you a ride in his van.

The house Mrs. Hao had arranged for you to stay in was by the lake. The location was secluded, with elderly residents living nearby, and no vehicular traffic in the surrounding area.

It was a bungalow with three rooms and fully furnished.

After Huang Xiaomao left, to prevent others from seeing Zhao'er's flaws, you locked her in a room. When you returned from buying groceries in the nearby market, you found her standing docilely by the door, staring blankly at you.

Looking at her, you reached out and gently touched the ice-cold but soft complexion of her face, feeling a wave of emotion in your heart.

In the past, you would never have dreamed that you would possess such a breathtakingly beautiful creature. The more time you spent with her, the more you felt all other women were just plain and vulgared, much like Cuihua and Phoenix Sister.

Even Wu Qiyi, who you had secretly admired for three years, paled in comparison to Zhao'er.

This was all despite the fact that she was devoid of any consciousness. You couldn't help but think that she must have been an unparalleled beauty in her lifetime.

"Zhao'er, I'll cook for you myself tonight and make you a delicious meal!"

Although you knew she didn't eat anything, you still got busy in the kitchen, washing the vegetables with swift movements, glancing at Zhao'er who stood behind you with a naturally happy smile on your face.

As you picked up the kitchen knife ready to chop off the messy parts of the fish head, the moment your left hand touched the fish head, a flash of a fishmonger beheading a fish crossed your vision. Consequently, your right hand deviated, cutting a shallow wound on your arm and blood began to flow out immediately!

"Ouch, hiss—"

When you hurriedly turned around to find a towel, Zhao'er, who had been still behind you, suddenly pounced!

She behaved out of the ordinary, bending down to bite your wound!

Startled by Zhao'er's abnormal behavior, you quickly reached out to push her away, only to feel a tingling sensation coming from the wound.

Looking down carefully, you were surprised to see Zhao'er extending her sexy, little almond tongue, licking your wound like an obedient kitten. Each motion of her tongue sent shivers through your soul, as if ants were crawling all over your body, even causing your toes to twitch involuntarily.

The blood from the wound was quickly licked clean by Zhao'er, and the wound miraculously healed.

What surprised you even more was that Zhao'er suddenly tilted her head and said to you with a dazed and adorable expression, "Hungry."

You thought you had heard wrong at first, but she said again, "Hungry."

You gaped, obviously failing to grasp the situation at first. After rubbing your face several times, you hastily asked, "Zhao'er, were you saying you were hungry just now?"

Zhao'er didn't answer. Instead, she licked her sexy red lips with her tongue, making you feel like ants were crawling over your heart again, causing unbearable tickles.

"Just wait here, I'll cook you something to eat right away."

To avoid embarrassing yourself, you quickly took Zhao'er to the dining room and sat her down on a chair.

Different from before, she no longer mimicked your movements by standing up and instead sat obediently, staring blankly at you busily cooking in the kitchen.

Tomato scrambled eggs, steamed pumpkin, fish head tofu soup, crispy ribs—four appetizing dishes were brought to the table one after the other.

You filled two bowls with rice, but it seemed Zhao'er didn't know how to use chopsticks and made a comical attempt to replicate your way of holding them.

"Let me feed you instead."

Like feeding a child, you spooned up a bite of rice and a bite of food for her.

Seeing her eat so heartily made you feel as if your heart was filled with honey, sweet and delightful.

Truth be told, you had never thought that Zhao'er could speak or even eat like a normal person.

In less than two days since leaving the Underground Palace, she was becoming more and more like a real person.

You glanced down at your wound, which had already healed, and suddenly realized that Zhao'er's ability to talk seemed to have been because she drank your blood.

Therefore, after the two of you devoured all the food, you deliberately cut your finger with a Little Knife, squeezed out a bit of blood, and extended your finger to Zhao'er's mouth. However, Zhao'er shook her head and said with a voice as melodious as a silver bell, "Full."
