Chapter 310 Exhausted
Mo Qianxun's eyes widened: "When was this decided? I've never heard of it before?"
“Today!” Ling Feng said with absolute confidence.
Mo Qianxun: ? ? ? Huh?
“We’ve already informed the higher-ups about what’s happening here. The leaders think this might just be the beginning, so in order to prevent this from happening again, they’ve decided to set up a special paranormal investigation department.” Ling Feng showed Mo Qianxun his phone conversation with Zhao Jianguo.
Mo Qianxun: Ah...
“Although the High Priest isn’t very strong, his eyes are truly exceptional, which is why the higher-ups are planning to bring him in.” Ling Feng finished speaking, then looked at An Xinghui, “Your second brother seems to have a pretty good eye for this kind of thing too, perhaps…”
"Don't tell him yet. His current dream is to make a name for himself in the entertainment industry. If you tell him about this now, he probably won't agree. Besides, he hasn't tested his spiritual root yet. What if he doesn't have one? How disappointed he would be."
"Alright, then bring your family here as soon as possible to have their spiritual roots tested. Now is the time to recruit people." Ling Feng patted her shoulder.
"Okay, I'll go back and discuss this with them."
------
After the matter in the town was resolved, the group went back to their respective homes and mothers.
After returning home, Mo Qianxun and An Xinghui immediately threw themselves onto the sofa.
"Ah~ I'm exhausted today, both physically and mentally!" An Xinghui exclaimed, sprawled on the sofa without any regard for appearances.
"It's really tiring." Mo Qianxun also lay down on the sofa. "And I'm so sleepy right now, I really want to sleep. No, I need to rest a little longer, just a little longer before I move again." As Mo Qianxun spoke, her eyelids seemed to weigh a ton, and she was about to close them when the living room lights suddenly turned on.
The two instantly looked warily toward the direction of the switch.
They saw Xiang Liu holding his little pillow, standing by the light switch and looking at them, his little hand still on the switch.
"Little Xiangliu, you scared me to death! I thought a thief had broken into the house." An Xinghui lay back down.
Xiao Xiangliu walked to Mo Qianxun's side: "Master, you've really worked hard today."
"It's not tiring, it's okay. What did you do today?"
Xiao Xiangliu's eyes lit up instantly: "Uncle and Auntie treated me to lots of delicious food today, it was all so good! I'll bring some to my master next time!"
"Okay, it's so late, why aren't you asleep yet?" Mo Qianxun patted Xiao Xiangliu's head and lay down as well.
Little Xiangliu lay on the edge of the sofa, looking at her: "I'm waiting for my master to come back."
"What are you waiting for me for? Aren't you sleepy? You won't grow tall if you don't go to bed on time." Mo Qianxun patted his little head, lay down for another two minutes, and then sat up.
"Alright, second brother, you should wash up and go to bed early too!"
An Xing waved her hand and said weakly, "Okay, you go to sleep first. I need to calm down a bit. Today's events were a bit too intense, and I haven't recovered yet."
"Fine, then I'll leave you alone."
Mo Qianxun led Xiao Xiangliu upstairs, took him to her room, and then went back to wash up briefly before lying down on the bed and falling asleep.
In her dream, Mo Qianxun arrived at a place where everything was pitch black. With each step she took, she could feel something beneath her feet; sometimes, her feet would even step on something soft. Here, only her sense of touch remained sharp; her sense of smell and sight seemed to have vanished.
"Is anyone there? Hey, is anyone there? If anyone's there, please call out." Mo Qianxun shouted.
But there was no sound around, and no echo from her, which proved that the place was very large and there were no walls or anything like that, so it shouldn't be a closed space.
"Strange, where exactly is this place?" Mo Qianxun wandered aimlessly, tentatively exploring the area.
Suddenly, she seemed to trip over something, and just when she thought she was going to fall to the ground, she was jolted awake.
Mo Qianxun sat up, clutching her chest. For some reason, she felt a lingering sense of fear.
[Host, what's wrong?] 008 looked at Mo Qianxun, who had suddenly woken up, with some confusion, and at the same time, she guiltily put her hands behind her back.
Mo Qianxun covered her head: "I don't know. I think I just had a dream, but I can't remember it at all now."
[Oh, it's just a dream, host. Don't worry. Dreams you can't remember after waking up are all fake. It's nothing to worry about.] 008 landed on Mo Qianxun's blanket.
"But, something about that dream just doesn't feel right. 008, do you think that dream might have some meaning?"
008 shook its head. [Host, I reckon you've been through so much yesterday, and it's affected you somewhat. It's alright, you'll be fine soon.]
Mo Qianxun looked at 008 and murmured, "Could it really just be a dream?"
[Host, it must be a dream. Today seems to be New Year's Eve. We should have a good time today.] 008 chuckled.
"Okay." Mo Qianxun got up, washed up, and then took 008 downstairs.
"Qianxun's awake! Mom's cooking glutinous rice balls. Have some to tide you over in a bit." Liu Hanyan poked her head out from the kitchen.
"Okay!" Mo Qianxun sat down next to An Xinghui: "Second brother, how did you sleep last night?"
"It was great. I slept soundly through the night without any dreams. I didn't want to get up at all unless my older brother woke me up." An Xinghui leaned back on the sofa, her face full of resentment.
"Where's Big Brother?"
An Xinghui gestured for him to look outside: "Look, he's setting off firecrackers with Dad. Big brother is really something, he's such a grown man, yet he's still so enthusiastic about such a childish thing as setting off firecrackers."
It was supposed to be my dad and I putting it out together, but my older brother wouldn't let me. Humph!
Mo Qianxun looked at An Sihan, who was no longer in a wheelchair, lighting firecrackers outside, and asked with some doubt, "Isn't Big Brother afraid that other people will see that his leg is healed?"
"The privacy around here is pretty good. As long as you don't deliberately climb the corner of the wall, there's no problem. Besides, my brother is probably eager for people to know that his leg is healed." An Xing put his hands behind his head and looked at the situation outside.
How many years has it been since we've seen a scene like this?
It seems like Xu Xin hasn't appeared since she was a teenager.
Because of Xu Xin's deliberate manipulation, their father always left them aside, which meant that they hadn't set off firecrackers with their father for many years. And because of Xu Xin's framing, they also seemed to have not had a warm breakfast on New Year's Eve for many years.
An Xing turned to Mo Qianxun: "Little sister, thank goodness it's you!"
"Ok?"
