Chapter 38 The child is gone

"It's broad daylight now, and it shouldn't appear. I'll slowly solve it when I return to the mansion."

Just as he was about to put away the wood carving, he suddenly thought of a key thing and turned to ask Awu.

"By the way, where did this thing come from? Why did it appear in our shop?"

"this……"

A Wu opened his eyes and looked at the semi-finished product carefully, thought about it hard, and finally thought of something, and said happily: "This thing was pawned by someone else in our pawn shop a month ago! It was a coincidence that he was a little beggar, saying it was a treasure passed down from his ancestors. He wanted to pawn for money and buy buns."

"At a glance, I knew it was lying. It was probably the guy who stole it from somewhere, and it was not worth anything. The shopkeeper wanted to drive the kid out, but seeing that he was pitiful, he paid him a few cents out of his own pocket, which was considered to have bought it."

"After that we put this thing together with other worthless miscellaneous items, and then we gradually forgot it. If it weren't for your pick-up, we might have forgotten this. Sure enough, the little beggar is a lie, and he hasn't seen him come to redeem it for so long..."

"Little beggar?"

Lu Zhe murmured, frowning slightly.

"If it's really a little beggar, then things may be a little difficult to investigate..."

Such displaced beggars have no fixed place to live, and no one will remember them when they come and go. Maybe they will disappear one day and they will not know, and there is no way to find them!

And if you think deeper, if such a little beggar is very hungry and others will give you some money at will, they will be able to do things obediently. It is not a problem to send a piece of wood carving to the pawnshop of the Lu family.

"If this is the case, then if there are indeed any enemy hidden in the dark to target our Lu family, it will be difficult to find it..."

He realized the tricky part and couldn't help but feel even more upset.

"I thought it would be better to catch the female ghost, but I knew there would be a deeper secret..."

"But our Lu family has always been kind to others. Even if there are some small business frictions, it has never provoked any life-and-death enemy. Who deliberately used this wood carving to harm us?"

After leaving the shop, he couldn't wait to do anything else and hurried back to the Lu family and returned to his room with the semi-finished wood carving.

"Next, you just need to bring it back to the spiritual realm. When the mother and son reunite, they may reawaken their humanity and get some useful news..."

Now, I can only try my best to hold such hope.

He opened the door of the Spirit Realm and walked through the door with the wooden sculpture, a shocking chill burst out from it in an instant!

"What a rich yin energy!"

Lu Zhe, who had already transformed into a ghost body, immediately felt the yin energy radiating from the wooden carvings. In the blink of an eye, even the leaves above were stained with a thick layer of frost, instantly turning from summer to winter!

He immediately looked down and saw that the cold air appeared on the surface of the wood sculpture had gradually disappeared and gradually turned into the most common semi-finished sculpture.

He suddenly realized something.

"In other words, this thing was originally considered a traumatic object in the mortal world, but after coming to the spiritual realm, it lost its special place and became ordinary..."

His heart moved slightly, and his eyes when he looked at the wood carving changed slightly, becoming a little solemn.

"If this is true, then the baby ghost should have lost all his mana and become the most ordinary baby!"

"It's even more impossible to continue hiding in this wood carving!"

He looked around but found no trace of the baby ghost at all!

His heart suddenly sank and realized something was wrong.

"Did you find the wrong wood carving... or..."

He immediately rushed to the mountain temple. As soon as he entered the door, he saw the miserable female ghost tied to the pillar. He was dying, but he still maintained a crazy attitude, trying to struggle away and doing futile things.

Jiang Lu still stood by as Lu Zhe's instructions seriously. Although he was already very tired, he still tried hard to open his eyes wide and did not dare to close them, for fear of any accident.

Especially when the female ghost struggled to make a louder sound, he would turn his head and glar at her fiercely, trying to make her feel more at peace.

But she wouldn't obey.

After Lu Zhe entered the mountain temple, he immediately revealed his figure. When Jiang Lu saw him, he stood up in a hurry and wanted to salute, but he waved his hand to help him up.

“Is there anything going on last night?”

Jiang Lu immediately shook her head: "Nothing unexpected, but this female ghost kept screaming. I was worried that it would attract others, so I blocked her mouth with cloth."

Lu Zhe glanced at the female ghost and saw that there was a dirty rag stuffed into the other party's mouth, which made her unable to make loud noises. He could only stare at the two culprits in front of him who grabbed her with resentment and ferocious eyes.

He took two steps forward, reached out to take off the rag from her mouth, and in an instant she seemed to be extremely hungry and saw the wild wolf that saw the prey, and bit it suddenly at his hand!

However, the result was that her teeth collided and shattered, and her mouth was filled with blood. While screaming, several broken teeth fell on the ground.

Lu Zhe slowly withdrew his arm that turned into a phantom with expressionless expression, took out the wood sculpture from his arms and threw it in front of her.

The wood carving rolled on the ground twice and made a sound, attracting the female ghost's attention.

The moment she saw it, her face suddenly changed!

"What you said before...but this wood carving?" Although Lu Zhe asked this question, he had already obtained the answer by looking at her expression.

Finally realized that things were moving in the direction that they least wanted.

"My child...child..."

The girl was speechless and covered in blood foam, but she struggled even harder. Her eyes were staring at the wood carving on the ground, and she didn't even look at Lu Zhe.

Until Lu Zhe stepped on it with one kick.

The female ghost was shocked and immediately raised her head, spreading her hair, staring at him with extreme resentment, as if she was about to swallow him alive.

"Your child is not in it!" Lu Zhe said expressionlessly, "Tell me now, who did this wood sculpture come from, so that I can help you find your child and reunite you mother and son."

According to the meaning of this female ghost, her child has no ability to act independently, and when her mother is away, she can only hide in the wood carving and live a life of silence.

Then there is only one answer I got - someone took the child away while the female ghost was away!
