Chapter 240 Firmly Believing She Will Return
After instructing his guards, Jing Han held a meeting with several leaders of the military camp before riding away at breakneck speed towards Xiajia Village.
At this moment, Yun Yi had just beaten up Lu Pan again.
In fact, the Emperor of Fengdu has four judges under his command: Wei Zheng of the Rewards and Goodness Division, Zhong Kui of the Punishments and Evil Division, Lu Zhidao of the Investigation Division, and Cui Jue of the Underworld Law Division.
The judge Lu that Yunyi beat up was Lu Zhidao.
Because Lu Zhidao was the best-looking and most charming of the four judges, with naturally captivating eyes that even made him look at dogs with affection, and because he often liked to flirt with young female ghosts, many female ghosts lingered at the entrance of his investigation office every day. Some even gave up reincarnation just to catch a few more glimpses of him.
Originally, when she was on a quick transmigration mission, this guy was already a womanizer when he was human, but she didn't expect him to still be the same even after becoming a ghost.
"Grandma," Lu Zhidao said, dodging and weaving in a disheveled manner, "this is not my fault. I only glanced at them a few times, and they acted like they were going to die. I'm so wronged."
"But you've long forgotten Zhou Xian'er."
Lu Zhidao's expression froze, then he bowed repeatedly: "Grandma, more than a hundred years have passed. Your mission is over. Why bring it up again? She has already been reincarnated twice and has long forgotten me."
"I just don't like you." Yun Yi raised an eyebrow slightly. "Besides, it's because it's not the same situation as before, so I wanted to test whether my consciousness could still clench my fist in this underworld."
"You..." Lu Zhidao was so angry that he almost spat out a mouthful of ghost blood.
The ten Underworld Generals around them watched with great amusement, even discussing among themselves, as if they were just missing a handful of melon seeds.
“Grandma, I have to remind you.” Lu Zhidao carefully moved to the side, “One day in the underworld is equivalent to one month in the mortal world, and you are now…”
Yunyi's face darkened, and she turned and ran. How could she have forgotten about this? She had been delayed in the underworld for at least three hours, which was almost four days. If she continued to delay, the original body would probably be doomed.
"Boss, remember to come back and visit us when you have time!" Huang Tian'er shouted at Yun Yi like a madam, waving a handkerchief that seemed to have appeared out of nowhere.
Yunyi waved her hand without turning her head and hurriedly crossed the Yellow Springs Road, exiting the Gates of Hell.
Lu Zhidao breathed a sigh of relief; that old lady was finally gone.
Meanwhile, those in the Lu family who were unaware of Lu Ximeng's accident were living, studying, and working normally, but the few who knew the truth were feeling extremely depressed.
Da Bao was the first to notice something was wrong, so he took the initiative to find Gu Chengrui: "Uncle."
"Your Highness." Gu Chengrui's eyes were slightly red.
"I am Da Bao, there is no little prince here."
Gu Chengrui nodded: "Dabao, is there...is there something you need from me?"
"Has something happened to Mother?" Da Bao's eyes also reddened.
"she……"
"I want to hear the truth."
Gu Chengrui hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Something did happen, she... didn't wake up." He then recounted what had happened that night.
Da Bao's tears began to well up in his eyes: "Uncle, I am also a descendant of the dragon, my blood is fine."
Gu Chengrui patted Da Bao's head: "His Highness once said that he would protect you at all times. As long as you are here, there is hope for the future."
“I know, but…” Da Bao sniffed, “Can I go see her?”
Gu Chengrui hesitated.
"I promise I won't tell anyone else."
Gu Chengrui sighed: "She's in your Senior Sister Xiao's room."
Here, everyone is officially ranked according to Yun Yi's seniority.
Da Bao turned around and ran outside.
In Xiao Jinxiu's room, Hong Yi had just finished wiping Yun Yi's body, then sighed, "It's been three days, why hasn't she woken up yet?"
Xiao Jinxiu, while looking at a medical book, was inserting needles into her arm: "I think Master will definitely come back. We must believe in her."
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
Hong Yi and Xiao Jinxiu exchanged a glance, then covered Yun Yi up before getting up to open the door: "Da Bao? What brings you here?"
Da Bao, however, squeezed right in and closed the door behind him, saying, "I came to see Mom."
“You…” Xiao Jinxiu stood up.
"I see."
Xiao Jinxiu glanced at Hong Yi, then sighed, "Since you know, come over here. Master is lying down."
Da Bao ran over and saw Yun Yi, who looked like she was asleep. Tears streamed down his face. "Mom, it's me, Da Bao! Si Bao can talk now, Liu Bao can eat now, and he even did morning exercises with us today..."
Hong Yi and Xiao Jinxiu quietly slipped out.
“Maybe Da Bao will wake her up by talking to her,” Xiao Jinxiu said in a low voice. “I don’t think it’s a bad thing.”
“I’m worried that once Da Bao finds out, the others will probably find out soon too,” Hong Yi said with some concern.
"If you know, you know. If Master continues to lie down, we definitely can't keep it from you any longer."
A slight nod from the head—that's certainly the truth.
However, Hong Yi's worries soon came true. That very night, everyone in the family learned that Yun Yi had fallen into a coma, and the relaxed atmosphere from before vanished instantly.
Xia Songshi, in particular, fainted from crying.
Xiao Jinxiu gave Xia Songshi acupuncture: "Fortunately, it's just that she's overly saddened."
Da Bao felt guilty and started crying too; he really didn't mean it.
"It's okay." Xiao Tai'an patted Da Bao's head. "You didn't want this either, right?"
Da Bao nodded.
"But this also serves as a reminder that sometimes unintentional leaks can cause trouble, and sometimes unintentional harm can be even more terrible."
"I understand." Da Bao nodded. "I promise I won't do it again."
Xiao Tai'an simply nodded. He had already sent a message to Master Zhiyan, but he didn't know if he would receive a reply.
That evening, Hong heard the coded signal outside and hurriedly got up to go out. Upon seeing the person in the shadows, she quickly knelt down on one knee and said, "Greetings, Master."
"How is she?" Jing Han asked anxiously.
"He hasn't woken up yet; today is the third day." Hong Yi's voice was also filled with worry. "But fortunately, there's nothing wrong with his body; he's still breathing."
"Take good care of her." Jing Han took a deep breath.
"I will," Hong hesitated for a moment, "but Master, the young lady's condition is too strange, ordinary medical skills may not be enough..."
"Don't worry, she will definitely come back." Jing Han interrupted Hong Yi's worries.
Hong Yi fell silent. Since her master was so convinced, she was even more convinced that the young lady would definitely come back.
