Meanwhile, as Ye Qian watched the children playing with each other; after some time they started walking toward him.
He asked, "Have you guys finished playing?"
"Yes, Big Brother we have finished playing. Mmm... it's that ..."
Little Ming replied while hesitating a bit.
"Just say it, there is no need to hesitate."
Ye Qian said seeing her behaving like this.
"Big Brother, Little Qing's mother is suffering from some disease and.. and she feels a lot of pain while doing normal work."
"Can you help Little Qing's mom? Please, for me."
Little Ming asked with a pleading look.
"Sure, why not, Little Ming's friend is my little friend as well, how can I not help her? "
"And I don't want you all to be sad."
He replied while standing up from the plain rock on which he was sitting all the time.
"Well show me the way, will you?"
With a smile, he asked Little Qing who was standing beside Little Ming while patting her head.
"Ah yes, thank you so much, Big Brother."
Little Qing replied with a low voice and her eyes were slightly moist.
"Oh, why are you crying, there is no need to cry, come here."
He patted her head while caressing her cheeks to wipe away the tears.
"Yes, Big Brother. Sniff sniff."
Little Qing replied with a smile and started walking toward her house with Little Ming and Ye Qian, while Sen and Yufu went to their home.
"Here Big Brother!"
Little Ming brought them to a small, not-so-good-looking house.
The walls had many cracks on its walls and appeared very old and not renovated.
"Yes, let's go." Ye Qian replied while not giving any thought to the shabby and almost broken house.
"Big Brother sit here, I will bring some water for you."
She pointed towards two wooden chairs directing Little Ming and him to sit.
While the house looked on the verge of collapsing it was kept tidy and clean.
"Big Brother, Little Qing does all the cleaning in the house, as her mom is very ill."
Little Ming whispered while Little Qing went to bring them water.
"Ohh, then when does her father come back from work?" He asked.
"Um, mom said that her father died in an accident when she was only a year old and... and her mother then went to do the work on the field."
"But.. but about three to four months ago, she suddenly fell ill and after that, Little Qing does some chores in other people's houses and while they give her money even for a little work and sometimes even food to eat."
She replied with a sad face.
"Oh, what a poor child." Ye Qian sighed while listening to Little Ming.
Meanwhile, Little Qing brought them water in two glasses.
After drinking it, Ye Qian stood and said "Now let's see your mother."
"Yes, Big Brother!"
Little Qing exclaimed while leading to a room where a mat was placed on the floor with some bedsheets on them.
A lady was sleeping on it and a thick blanket covering her.
Some fruits and water were placed beside her.
Ye Qian felt foul and dark energy surrounding the room which was covering the lady.
Ye Qian asked while narrowing his eyes.
"Where did your mother work before she fell ill?"
"Huh, Big Brother, mother worked on a field near the place when they bury." Little Qing replied while adjusting the blanket on the lady with her small hands.
While she adjusted the blanket, Ye Qian noticed the dark energy ran away from her when Little Qing went near her mother, it was like they were afraid.
Ye Qian was astonished, then he saw Little Ming going near Little Qing.
Ye Qian quickly extended his hand and stopped Little Ming from going near the lady.
"Big Brother?" Little Ming asked as he stopped her.
"Don't go near Little Qing's mother." He said.
"Is something wrong with my mother Big Brother?"
Little Qing asked Ye Qian with worry, seeing him stop Little Ming from coming near her mother
"Yes, she is being surrounded by evil spirits and ghosts." Ye Qian replied while shaking his head.
"Ah..." Little Qing almost jumped in fear, for a little child, the most afraid it was of were ghosts.
"Don't worry they do not affect you, now let me check her for now, while you both stay outside the room." Ye Qian said to them.
"Hmm"
Both nodded and went out like a rabbit running away after seeing a tiger.
Meanwhile, Ye Qian went towards the lady and put his index finger on her glabella.
"So you think you can cause trouble for me?"
Noticing that the foul aura had also started to surround him, Ye Qian mumbles with a feeble smile.
He started pouring Spirit Energy through his finger in her glabella.
Suddenly wailing sounds started coming from the room and the two girls outside were frightened.
Ye Qian chuckled.
"You guys think you have a chance to escape."
One by one the ghosts and evil spirits had started to tear apart and were dissipating due to the Pure Spirit Energy released by Ye Qian.
"Now it's done!"
A few moments later, the lady opened her trembling eyes.
She glanced around and after seeing Ye Qian sitting beside her.
She clearly was confused after seeing a man in her house.
After a few seconds, she suddenly moved away and covered herself with the blankets while asking in fear.
"Who...who are you and...and what are you doing here?"
Her voice was shaky indicating that she was still weak and afraid of an unknown man.
"Hello, I am Ye Qian, I am Little Qing's friend, she asked me to come here to treat you, are you feeling good now?"
Ye Qian asked seeing her sickly appearance changing to healthy wheat coloured after she woke up.
"Little Ming, Little Qing, come in you two!"
As she was still in a daze Ye Qian called out to the two little girls.
"Yes, Big Brother."
Little Qing and Little Ming both came rushing.
Little Qing ran into her mother's embrace seeing her awake once again and healthy.
"Oh, Little Qing don't cry mom has been bad to you; forcing you to work while I sleep and take a rest."
Little Qing's mother consoled her while wiping the tears off the little girl's cheeks.
Seeing the mother and daughter pair happy again Ye Qian suddenly had a thought in mind.
'Since it is 2021, it means I died nearly 5 years ago in this world meaning the 1000 years in Heavenly Realm equals a single year on Earth. Quiet fascinating. Sigh...that means my daughter will not be much older than Little Ming and Little Qing!'
While thinking of his daughter a smile appeared on his face reminiscing that he was going to have a daughter in about two months after his sudden death.
'Sigh...I must leave soon; I can't be more late; I am already here.'
'And Mengmeng would also be waiting for me; I owe her too much and I have left her alone all by herself, I must leave today.'
"Cough... I think I must leave now."
While turning towards the door he started walking with Little Ming.
"Sir, thanks a lot for helping me can you please tell me what illness I suffered so I will most likely not do the work." The woman asked.
While he did not look carefully before, now that Ye Qian saw her, she was quite young and was a lot more beautiful compared to women at her age.
As he saw her, she felt him looking at her without blinking and she felt her cheeks burning. While she was a widow. She still had a young heart.
"Mom, Big Brother said that you were surrounded by some evil spirits after working near the cemetery." Little Qing said to her mother while helping her to wake up.
"Ahh...what...ghosts, what Ming run away!"
She called out while trying to push Little Ming away.
"Sir can you please see if Little Qing is alright; I am worried about her. Please!"
Being a villager, she quickly believed in Little Qing's word, and she did not doubt it at all.
She had heard many wailings around her while she slept.
"There is no problem with Little Qing."
Ye Qian waved his hand and continued.
"She has a Special Body so the ghosts and evil spirits can't come near her, that's why she was fine even after remaining by your side."
Ye Qian said.
He convinced her that there was nothing wrong.
He now knew that Little Qing had a Pure Spirit Body that was special even in the cultivation world.
"Thanks a lot for saving us but we cannot give you anything."
The lady replied while bowing but she didn't understand what body Ye Qian was talking about.
"That's not a problem; you should take care of yourself and Little Qing, how about umm... no that won't do!"
Ye Qian replied with modesty while thinking of taking Little Qing as his disciple, but he let go of the idea as it might be too much, maybe another kind of help might be good.
"Yes." The lady replied.
"Um, will you be staying here?"
She suddenly asked.
"Ah no, I mean in the village. I mean are you from the village?"
She quickly corrected herself.
"Umm... No, I will be leaving today, I have to meet someone and might even leave by noon."
Ye Qian said while thinking of a way of going back to his house in Shenzhen.
"Big Brother, don't leave Little Ming, you can stay with us in the house."
Meanwhile, Little Ming poked him and urged him to stay, she had tears welling in her eyes.
He got on his knees and held Little Ming's hand in his and said.
"Don't worry, Big Brother will definitely come regularly to meet you though, also I have to treat you, right?"
"Yes, Big Brother you have to come and meet Little Ming regularly or I will be mad at you and won't talk to you!"
Little Ming nudged him with a smile on her face.
He didn't know why but he formed a bond with Little Ming after seeing her for the first time.
'Maybe because she is just like Qing'er when she was also a cute little child. SIGH...Qing'er you should recover yourself; now that I will be away from your sight.'
While thinking of his youngest disciple, Ye Qian thought.
"That's good to hear that you will come again." The lady suddenly mumbled.
"What?" Ye Qian could somewhat hear her words and asked.
"Um...nothing."
Not knowing why she thought of him this way, she stumbled and nearly fell.
Ye Qian quickly extended his hand and held her by her waist, stopping her from falling.
Their eyes met.
She looked into his eyes and thought 'How handsome this man is!' She shook her head and straightened herself from his hands.
He coughed awkwardly and asked Little Ming.
"Little Ming let's go, I have to make some preparations."
"Yes, Big Brother. I will ask mom to make her special rice pudding for you, she makes it very tasty."
Little Ming said while holding his hand and walking to the door.
The lady stood there with Little Qing in her embrace; after seeing Ye Qian walk away she mumbled subconsciously.
"When you come here next time, make sure to visit our house as well."
"Yes, I will sure visit you too."
Not thinking much about it, Ye Qian replied while waving at Little Qing and walking out of the house with Little Ming.
"Ah ... what did I ask him?" The lady mumbled to herself in a daze.
"Mom, you told him to come to our house next time he comes to the village." Little Qing said with her lips pursed while pulling the hem of her mother's shirt.
"Mom, he is nice isn't he, he even cured Little Ming, I hope he will come to our house next time." She said.
'Why was I expecting him to visit me again?'
Little Qing's mother asked herself.
