Just then, a very thin red thread looped around Sun Cheng's neck, and everyone who looked in the direction of the thread breathed a sigh of relief.

Summer Evening Song is here.

Xia Wange took a few big steps closer, turned around and kept her back to back with Sun Cheng. Then she bent down and pulled the red thread in her hand. The circle quickly shrank, but when it shrank to a certain extent, the circle was no longer small and became very tight, as if it was holding something in place.

But everyone could see clearly that the line still had a lot of slack, and the red line around Sun Cheng's neck was still quite far from the flesh on his neck. The line was so big that it could pass right through the other person's head without any obstruction.

No matter how hard Xia Wan Ge tried, the coil just wouldn't shrink any further.

"I'm always on guard against him! I'm always on guard against him! I'm always on guard against him!" Sun Cheng's operatic voice began to become agitated, repeating the last sentence over and over, and speaking faster and faster.

Just then, Xia Wange kicked backward, and Sun Cheng's foot was kicked up, causing the red coil to detach directly from his head.

Then it dashed into the river at an extremely high speed and disappeared.

Xia Wange remained bent over, letting Sun Cheng lean against her back, "Come help me, help him walk away."

Du Yun and Xiao Liu immediately mustered their courage and stepped forward to help Sun Cheng, who had completely lost consciousness.

"What happened? What kind of thing did you call back?" Xia Wange asked while putting on her shoes, then handed a clean blanket to Lu Qiu. "Luckily, it was just a single spirit, so it wasn't very dangerous, but it ran pretty fast."

When she came up from the water, the other person gave her a blanket, because people who have no feeling in their legs are most afraid of the cold.

Lu Qiu stared at the blanket in front of her for a moment, then smiled slightly and took the blanket.

"I was just calling back the soul, I didn't do anything else," Du Yun said innocently.

Cao Niannian exposed, "Manager Du kept calling out 'Chengcheng' afterward."

Du Yun pursed her lips and remained silent.

Okay, it seems he really did just shout randomly out of boredom.

Xia Wange retied a few strands of her hair and handed them to Du Yun, saying, "Go and shout it again to make amends."

Du Yun obediently took the rope, took two steps, then turned back and asked, "Don't you often use talismans? This time it's so tricky, can't we use talismans?"

"If we can solve it in a simple way, we'll use the simple way." Xia Wange waved her hand. "Using talismans isn't very friendly to me."

Lu Qiu immediately looked at her.

Xia Wange continued, "It's quite tiring."

Using talismans is quite tiring.

Lu Qiu went over what was said and felt relieved.

This time, Du Yun didn't dare to shout anything else. Not long after, Sun Cheng woke up. He propped himself up on the ground and looked at the others blankly, "What... what happened to me?"

His hoarse voice startled him when he opened his mouth.

"What's wrong with my throat?"

Du Yun pursed her lips. "How could you not be hoarse? You sang so loudly just now; even a normal person's voice couldn't take it."

"You fell into the water, we rescued you, the ambulance is on its way." Xia Wange looked into the other person's eyes, "How much do you remember?"

"I... I fell into the water?" Sun Cheng frowned, raised his hand and tapped his head. "I don't remember much. I just remember jogging past here at night and then I vaguely heard the sound of opera. After that, I don't remember anything."

Just then, the ambulance arrived, and Cao Niannian rushed to meet it. Xia Wange knew that there was no point in asking any more questions, so she stood up and looked at Du Yun, "Why don't you go to the hospital with him? We need to check the surveillance footage to see where he fell into the water from."

Du Yun nodded, then shook his head, and leaned close to Xia Wange, whispering, "Are you sure this is for real? Did I summon some other weird stuff again? What if it's a fake this time?"

Those opera-style vocals from earlier still terrify him when he thinks about them now. They remind him of a ghost movie he watched as a child called "The Village Corpse," which was a real childhood trauma. Luckily, it was a man singing this time; if it had been a woman, he would have flown away long ago.

They were scared away.

"What could possibly fool me?" Xia Wange raised an eyebrow. Seeing that Du Yun was indeed frightened, she took out a hundred-yuan bill from her bag, stamped it a few times, and folded it into a small triangle.

"What are you doing?" Du Yun asked, slightly taken aback.

"What can the Five Emperors Coins do? This can do just that." Xia Wange pointed to the coins. "And this one is even more useful. Not to mention the great figures on them and everyone's unwavering faith in them, just the number of people using it now is several times that of back then. You can imagine its power."

"Wow, I can feel it now." Du Yun carefully put it away, then exclaimed in admiration, "Are you all so up-to-date these days?"

Xia Wange pondered for a moment, "Hmm... a new metaphysics guided by scientific values?"

Du Yun remained silent, gave a thumbs-up, and quickly left with the ambulance.

It was almost ten o'clock, and the group didn't linger. Driver Xiao Liu fulfilled his duty by first taking Cao Niannian home, and then going to take Xia Wange.

Only Xia Wange and Lu Qiu remained in the back of the car. They sat facing each other, and Lu Qiu gently touched the blanket covering him and asked softly, "Your clothes are still damp after such a short time, aren't they?"

Xia Wange, who was slumped in her seat enjoying the ultimate comfort of her boss's car, tilted her head to look at him when she heard this. "It's okay. I used to drive around in the mountains all the time. I'm used to my clothes getting damp. Luckily, I'm fast, otherwise you guys wouldn't know what to do."

"Why don't you teach me some things?" Lu Qiu said seriously, "Otherwise, you're the one who's always busy..."

"You can't learn it." Xia Wange waved her hand. "I told you before that you're too lucky. And you don't need to learn it. If you attract something powerful, even if they all get into trouble, including me, you'll be fine."

Lu Qiu tightened his grip on the blanket, and after a moment of silence, he said in a low voice, "It doesn't sound like something happy. You know, sometimes it's the safe ones who are the most anxious."

"Then you don't need to worry too much." Xia Wange sat up straight. "The people around you will be blessed by your good fortune. The closer they are to you, the more blessings they will receive."

"Sister Xia, you've arrived," driver Xiao Liu gently reminded her.

"Okay." Xia Wange got up, opened the car door, and got out. Then she poked her head back in. "I'm going back now. See you tomorrow!"

"Wait a minute." Lu Qiu called out to Xia Wange, pursing his lips. "Why don't you pack some clothes and put them in the car tomorrow?"

Xia Wange was taken aback.

Lu Qiu quickly explained, "I just had a feeling that there might be many more situations like today where I would need to change clothes. This way it will be more convenient for you in the future. I was worried that the new clothes I bought for you wouldn't fit."

"Boss, don't be stingy! Buy more and they'll fit!" Xia Wange blurted out, then realized her words were a bit ambiguous. Seeing that the other person's expression didn't change, she breathed a sigh of relief and quickly corrected herself, "Then I'll have to prepare more clothes. After all, it's your premonition, and it's likely to happen."

After saying that, Xia Wange closed the door.

Lu Qiu slowly exhaled, feeling a slight burning sensation in his ears.

Indeed, buying more will ensure a better fit.
