Mind reading saves the whole family; I'm firmly in the role of a charlatan.

Chapter 103 Don't we already have one at home?
Upon hearing Du Anrao's words, Jiang Wentao and his son felt a chill run down their spines.

Dead people? Is that what they mean? Why would Yoo-nyeon, who's perfectly fine, touch something like that?
Before they could figure it out, Du Anrao had already frowned in distress.

If that's the case, then this matter will be troublesome.

She had learned the skills of exorcising evil spirits, but before she came down the mountain, she always thought that these things were just theoretical and had no practical use.

In addition, she has been staying on the mountain the whole time and has never had a chance to put it into practice. Who knows if it will work?
She had only heard of this so-called yin energy before; this was the first time she had ever seen it.

but……

[Master seemed to have said before that all things in the world are mutually reinforcing and mutually restraining, and that the things that are harmful are most afraid of a few things: ritual implements, yang energy, and... merit.]

Upon hearing this, the Du family quickly realized that An'an had mentioned before that the reason she could see things that ordinary people couldn't was because she had changed some people's predetermined tragedies and gained merit.

In other words, Du Anrao now possesses something that this thing fears.

But this so-called merit is invisible and intangible, so how can it be effective?
Jiang Wentao and his son were on tenterhooks because of Du Anrao's words.

These magical artifacts, supposedly possessing yang energy and merit, sound so ethereal and unrealistic. Where are they supposed to find these things now? Is there any hope for You Nian?
Never mind, I need to figure out how to touch my older cousin's hand first.

Touch his hand? Jiang Changbin was stunned, not yet understanding Du Anrao's intention, but Jiang Wentao's eyes flashed and he quickly realized.

"Changbin, take the gift your mother prepared for Anrao first, and see if she likes it."

The Du family members immediately understood Du Wentao's plan and chimed in, "Sister-in-law, you still remember to prepare a birthday gift for An'an despite your busy schedule. You're so thoughtful. An'an, take a look at what your aunt prepared for you and see if you like it."

Du Anrao didn't expect this opportunity to come so suddenly. He quickly stepped forward, took the gift box from Jiang Changbin, and pretended to accidentally touch Jiang Changbin's hand, which was tainted with yin energy, with his own as he took it.

Immediately, a ray of light appeared on the back of Jiang Changbin's hand and traveled upwards, swallowing the small wisp of yin energy in the blink of an eye and disappearing without a trace.

Although Jiang Changbin couldn't see this scene, he could clearly feel the fatigue and chill in his body quickly disappear the moment Du Anrao touched him.

Instead, a continuous warmth flowed through my limbs and bones, and my mind became clearer after the fatigue subsided.

It worked!

Du Anrao's exclamation and his son's visible changes occurred almost simultaneously, and Jiang Wentao almost lost his composure on the spot due to his excitement.

He had a premonition that his youngest son could be saved!
The Du family members also breathed a sigh of relief. They almost couldn't help but speak up to stop them, since none of them knew anything about that so-called Yin energy. Since it could entangle Jiang Changbin, it might entangle their child as well.

But they also knew that if they spoke up to stop it, the relationship with the other family would be over.

Of course, the most important thing is that they can also see that Du Anrao is genuinely worried about the Jiang family and really wants to save them. Like Jiang Wentao and the other two, they still hold a sliver of hope that Jiang Younian can be saved. After all, he is a child they have watched grow up.

Du Anrao was unaware of the inner turmoil of those around her. Seeing that her merits could indeed dispel the yin energy, she felt a surge of energy, but she still felt uncertain until she met the person in question. [The yin energy on my eldest cousin is gone, but I wonder what my second cousin's condition is now, and whether my merits are enough to save him. Anything said before seeing him is meaningless; it seems I still need to find an opportunity to meet this second cousin.]

Upon hearing that Du Anrao wanted to save his brother, Jiang Changbin subconsciously took two steps forward, but was interrupted by Du Junyan before he could speak.

“Uncle, Changbin, I have a different opinion about Younian’s matter.

Jiang Changbin was stunned: "What's your opinion?"

"Since the instruments at major hospitals can't detect anything, could it be that it's not an illness? After all, one hospital might misdiagnose it, but it can't be that every hospital misdiagnoses it, can it?"

Jiang Changbin wasn't stupid; he instantly understood Du Junyan's intention and smoothly replied, "But if it's not an illness, what could it be?"

"Who knows if she encountered some unspeakable evil spirit, or offended something? I remember when I was a child, I went back to my hometown once, and Yihan suddenly developed a high fever and started talking nonsense without any warning. Taking medicine and getting injections didn't help at all. In the end, my grandmother asked the elderly people in the neighborhood, and they burned incense and prayed before she got better."

Du Hexuan's eyes brightened slightly, and he nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, I remember this too. I remember my grandmother saying that Yihan was playing and went to the back mountain with the neighbor's child. There happened to be a cemetery there, and she bumped into it."

Listening to the two brothers' back-and-forth, Father Du also showed a thoughtful expression: "That is indeed true. Although it is somewhat mysterious, if we really can't find out, we can only ask someone to help us try."

Jiang Wentao frowned, looking troubled: "I understand what you mean, but I don't know who to turn to right now. As you know, there are too many swindlers these days. Not long ago, an old lady in our neighborhood was just scammed. Losing money is a small matter, but I'm afraid it will delay things and harm her health."

"Isn't that simple? If we need to find a master, we have one right here at home!"

"Who?"

“An’an. An’an grew up in a Taoist temple and learned all this. Since returning home, she has already helped several people with character analysis, fortune telling, and feng shui consultations, with a 100% positive feedback rate.”

Du Hexuan said this with such pride that anyone who didn't know better would think he was the one receiving the praise.

Du Anrao was used to being suddenly called out. Meeting the focused gazes around him, he immediately revealed a profound and unfathomable smile: "It's all due to family tradition. My master's ancestors had some skills. Although they have become more low-key and declined a lot in his generation, they haven't completely lost some of the basic skills."

As if to confirm her statement, the originally noisy banquet suddenly fell silent. Everyone stared wide-eyed in surprise as a snow-white pigeon flew in with some difficulty from outside the door and wobbled towards the direction where Du Anrao and the others were.

Du Anrao and the others were talking when they suddenly couldn't hear the noise around them and were startled. They subconsciously turned their heads and saw a white shadow flying over. They were startled.

"what?"

"The carrier pigeon, it's Master's carrier pigeon!"

Du Anrao's eyes brightened slightly. As soon as she finished speaking, something was thrown down in front of her, startling her so much that she instinctively reached out to catch it.

As the item landed in his palm, a weight also settled on his shoulder.
