  Today's temperature is really high, Du Siling only wore a single layer of clothing and was sweating profusely.

  The female ghost's name was Li Tao, and everyone habitually called her Sister Tao. She worked as a nanny by profession. And previously she was also very fortunate, because her nanny job was high-paying and easy-going and long-term employment and when asked where she worked, she was extremely proud of it.

  She is the successor of Haotian, and Peng Luofei's nanny. Normally, her job was just occasionally cooking for Peng Luofei, most of the time she cooked for herself because Peng Luofei rarely had meals at home. In that villa, when she got bored, she even raised pets by herself. She would take a walk at sunrise and talk to her pets at sunset. And she could get a monthly salary comparable to that of a civil servant, what else could be called a comfortable and enjoyable job?

  She had originally wanted to wait a little longer, until the yang energy weakened and then reappeared. However, because of Jing Rou's unintentional mention of the words "Clear Bamboo", she trusted Du Si Lin. Afraid that they would really leave, she hastily appeared to meet them.

  Tao Jie in Du Shilin's eyes could be described as weak and frail, her figure almost transparent, as if she was about to disappear into thin air.

  "Can't you help her?" She recalled what Jingji said at that time, "Her death this time, her lifespan should not have been exhausted yet."

  "Yes, Du Sulin can't help her." "I can only help her transcend and get rid of the shackles of the water ghost," Du Sulin replied silently. No matter how powerful she was, she was still a mortal after all. She couldn't bring the dead back to life. Life and death were already bound by the heavenly way, and she couldn't interfere with the heavenly way, or else she would suffer from heavenly punishment.

  The ancestors of the Du family have been young and short-lived for generations, and this is also inseparable from the cycle of heaven.

  Finally, Tao Jie entered the underworld. With Du Si Lin's help, she broke free from the shackles that required her to pull people down. On their way back, Du Si Lin was silent and expressionless. When she was younger, she hated how powerful she was, and in her ignorance of control, she would unintentionally hurt those around her. At this moment, however, she felt too small, facing many things and people with only the words "powerless" and "unable to turn back time".

  When a person's power grows stronger, the burden on her shoulders also becomes greater. This was something Aunt Du Kongyang had once said to her. Suddenly, she understood that this was the responsibility she should take on. Her abilities must be matched with responsibility.

  "...Fetal light..." At this time, Feng broke the silent atmosphere.

  "Huh?" Du Sulin raised his head, dazed for a moment.

  "You said Peng Haotian, how could he bear to turn his own daughter into a zombie?" Fangfeng asked.

  It is said that a tiger does not eat its own son. Is it possible that in this regard, the ancients were just talking nonsense?

  "I don't know, everyone is different, can't generalize about a whole group of people." Du Sulin said, sniffing his nose.

  A gentle breeze swept by, just like my mother's hand, warm and kind. Looking up, there were high-rise buildings, one after another. With the rapid development of modern technology, atheism is being believed in by more and more people. Who would have thought that someone like Du Siling, with such a low-key profession, could still exist?

  "It's also possible that it wasn't Peng Luofei..." Du Silin added after a pause.

  "Isn't it Peng Luo Fei?" Jing Jie was surprised, "But Tao Jie shouldn't have any reason to mistake..."

  Du Sulin chuckled, "In ancient times, there were methods like using human skin masks to create two identical people. What's more, with the advanced plastic surgery technology of modern times? Whatever look you want, can't a plastic surgeon achieve it?"

  "Is there something that doesn't feel right?" Fang Feng had always been perceptive of Du Si Lin's thoughts and wouldn't say anything without a reason.

  "I'm just guessing..." Du Sulin tilted his head to the side, a group of primary school students who were going to class in the afternoon gathered together on the roadside, doing something unknown.

  As I passed by, I heard a low, mournful cry. Du Sulin glanced over and saw a small, wheat-colored dog. If it was said to be the size of a palm, it would still be unsteady on its legs. It stood up, only to fall back down, swaying from side to side. A student offered it their favorite snack, but it just sniffed at it before ignoring them.

  "Poor little dog..." Jingji also squatted down and surrounded the elementary school student. "Feng, it's injured."

  Fengfeng leaned in for a closer look and saw that the little dog was thin as a stick, but its eyes were bright and clear. It let out a low "woof" at Fengfeng.

  "Taiguang, come and see...!" Fengfeng suddenly called out in an extremely serious tone.

  "This is..." Du Sulin's expression suddenly became ashen, because on the puppy's neck was a clear bite mark, still with speckled bloodstains.

  "Let's take it back..." Jing Ji suggested, looking at the two of them.

  "Alright." Du Sulin didn't hesitate, although it was just a small dog, but if it were to die on the road, who knows, it might become like Tao Jie and bite people to death.

  "Sister, are you going to adopt the little guy?" Just as Jing Jie picked up the puppy, the three of them turned around and left under the gaze of a group of students, when a timid voice rang out.

  "Little guy......?" Fengfeng's face lit up when he heard the little dog's nickname.

  Du Sulin glanced at the little dog nestled in the thorny bush, and those eyes were really... similar to the ones at home. Black and white, clear and bright.

  "It's injured, she's a doctor, we want to take it back to treat its wounds, is this your little dog?" The thorny yet polite and full of kindness voice made people unable to connect it with the spoiled and mischievous young woman from not long ago.

  Feng was helpless, she's a doctor, but not a veterinarian... She pulled at the corner of Jingji's clothes and was glared back by Jingji, whose eyes seemed to say: "You can cure humans, can't you even cure dogs?"

  Feng could only spread his hands and let Jing Ji go.

  Turning her head to look at Du Si Lin, she found that she was staring at the child who had spoken, with an inexplicable meaning in her eyes.

  "What's your name?" Du Sulin squatted down, his eyes level with the child. The delicate and lovely child had an apple-like doll face, with a healthy rosy complexion.

  "My name is Ding Xiyue." The little girl said listlessly, "Sister, the puppy isn't mine. Mom says my trachea isn't very good so she doesn't agree to me raising a puppy. You'll take care of it well if you adopt it, right?" She looked at Du Siling with a hint of expectation in her eyes. She wanted a confirmation.

  "Take care of Yueyue..." Du Sulin's heart was at ease, "We will take good care of it." She reached out and rubbed Little Yueyue's head, smiling.

  "Will I be able to see the little guy again?" Xi Yue looked at the puppy in Jing Jie's arms, who was weak but still barked at her.

  "Of course, there will be a brother named Chu Feng who brings it to see you." Du Si Lin smiled, and indeed, no coincidence is not a book. She just didn't expect that in this life she was still called Xi Yue. In her previous life, she was the daughter of the Liu family, but in this life, she had been reborn into the DING family.

  "Uh-huh!" Xi Yue nodded heavily, walked a few steps to the front of the little dog, and stroked its fur. "Little guy, I'm going to class now. My sister said we'll have another chance to meet again. You be good and take care of your injury."

  "..." The little dog seemed to have understood Xi Yue's words and stretched out its tongue to lick the palm of her hand.

  "Thank you......" Chu Feng appeared beside the three of them at some unknown time.

  "Now you can appear by her side with a clear conscience." Du Sulin smiled and patted Chu Feng's shoulder, she could clearly feel Chu Feng's body tremble.

  "Chu Feng has nothing to repay!" Chu Feng actually wanted to kneel down in the street for Du Si Lin, but was blocked by Du Si Lin.

  "Following Qing Zhu for so long, and you still haven't gotten used to the lifestyle of modern people?" Her tone was light yet carried a warm and gentle flavor like the winter sun.

  Xi Yue didn't understand the conversation between the two, but when she saw Chu Feng, she didn't shift her gaze away.

  "Xǐ Yuè, this is Chu Feng's older brother. Later he will bring... uh... to meet you." Dù Sī Lín paused for a moment, Xǐ Yuè called the little dog "little guy", she couldn't keep calling it that, if Little Guy Du Qinglǎn found out, he would probably tear down the house. "The little dog doesn't have a name yet, right?" she asked.

  "Hmm... I've always wondered what to name it." She didn't move her gaze away until Duslin spoke up to Ximeng.

  "Let's call it Egg Tart, they're all yellow." Du Sulin glanced at the little dog and smiled.

  "Dan hu......? That's my favorite food." Xi Yue smiled, and then said to the little dog, "Little guy, you have a name now, from now on you'll be called Dan Hu."

  Chu Feng stared blankly at Xi Yue's smile, as if he had seen her in her past life, the woman who was tormented by illness but still full of sunshine. Like a lotus flower in its heyday, pure and clean, yet fleeting like a daylily that only blooms for an instant. Fortunately, in this life, she has a healthy body, although her trachea is not good, it's much better than leukemia.

  "Brother, I think I've seen you before." Xī Yuè finally mustered up the courage to say what was on her mind.

  Chu Feng's body trembled as he crouched down, "Hello, my name is Chu Feng." Even his voice was trembling. The other three people beside him all knew that in Chu Feng's heart, to meet Xī Yuè again was a luxury that could only appear in his dreams. Now that the dream had come true, how could he not be excited?

  "Brother Chu Feng." Xi Yue smiled sweetly, like a cool mountain spring entering one's heart.

  "It's getting late, we have to go or we'll be late for class!" reminded a child beside her.

  Xi Yue raised her hand to look at her watch, revealing a somewhat reluctant and disappointed expression. "Chu Feng gege, jiejie, dan ta, I have to go to class now, goodbye!"

  "Goodbye..." After the figure of Xi Yue disappeared for a long time, Chu Feng still stood in place. The waving hand was still waving in mid-air.

  "Who knew old-fashioned Chu Feng could be so adorable!" Jing Jie teased.

  "Me..." Chu Feng's face turned red, but the corners of his mouth curled up, revealing his heart.

  "But when you saw us, you didn't appear right away!" Jing Jie's tone changed as she pretended to be angry.

  "I..." Chu Feng glanced at Du Si Lin, then lowered his head. He didn't tell Du Si Lin about what happened with Xi Yue. Because a long time ago, Du Si Lin had told him that perhaps it would be best if he and Xi Yue never saw each other in this life. That way, Xi Yue could live like a normal child, without the burdens of her past life. She was just a child, only this life's Ding Xi Yue.

  "I know you're by her side. But for now, I have something for you to do." Du Sulin knew Chu Feng's concern and was straightforward.

  "Master's orders!" For a while, Chu Feng hadn't been seen, and the modern habits that Xiao Qing had trained him in had faded away. He had transformed back into that majestic and heroic general.

  "Come back with me first." Du Sulin said, it's not a bad thing to be unchanged, what she needs now is the kind of strong and powerful leadership that Chu Feng has on the battlefield.

  "Yes!" Chu Feng nodded slightly, he had always respected Du Shilin. With today's events, anyone could see that Du Shilin was helping him out, and his respect for him grew even more than before. Probably if Du Shilin asked him to go up a knife mountain or down a fire sea, he wouldn't even frown and would agree.

  Let's update twice today!

  The creature composed of water ghosts, I heard it from my grandmother when I was young. When I was a kid and being naughty, she would tell all sorts of ghost stories to scare me, for example, I said that the water ghost is just what people become after they die, I didn't do anything bad, so I'm not afraid. She would say that many water ghosts will pile up like building blocks, turning into a monster, if you don't listen, it'll eat you away. Haha, I think this part is especially interesting, so I wrote it down.

  When writing about Xi Yue, I weakly say, is this the legendary pedophile?

  As for swimming, I think I'll just quietly stay on the shore and watch others swim. This way, I can sneak a peek at the sexy bikinis...
