Hua Niang's eyes showed reluctance, but it quickly vanished. She took a deep breath, grabbed Xiaoyou's shoulders, and said, "Xiaoyou, didn't you ask me before where your cousin is? He's right here. Will you help auntie find him, okay?"
Xiaoyou sobbed, tears streaming down her face, filled with trust. "Brother is here? Auntie said she wants to bring brother home. How can Xiaoyou help auntie?"
Her wholehearted trust made Hua Niang's heart ache intensely. Her nose was sore, and she choked out, "Xiaoyou, you're amazing. I need your blood now."
Hua Niang lifted Xiaoyou's hand and took a drop of blood from her fingertip.
Smelling the blood, the restless ghosts here became even more frenzied, scrambling to get closer to Xiaoyou.
Having prepared in advance, Hua Niang took out a talisman and placed it on herself and Xiaoyou, burning the wild ghosts that rushed forward. Their screams were both miserable and furious.
"Jun'er, mother is here. Hurry and come find mother!"
