"Huh!" Ye Luo suddenly woke up from his dream, already sweating profusely.

Hu Tao looked at Bai Zhu behind him in surprise: "He really woke up, it seems that this medicine is indeed useful!"

Ye Luo looked around him and saw Hu Tao, Bai Zhu, Qi Qi and A Gui, all of whom were looking at him seriously.

"I feel like... a bit like an animal being watched..."

Bai Zhu gently touched Ye Luo's forehead with his hand: "The fever has subsided, how do you feel now?"

Ye Luo thought about it carefully: "Except for a little backache and leg cramps, everything else is fine."

Bai Zhu smiled slightly: "You, you caught a cold last night and had a high fever."

Ye Luo didn't believe it at all: "It's impossible. I haven't been blown by the wind or rained on. How could I catch a cold?"

Walnut straightened his body and wiped his sweat with a handkerchief: "Look at yourself, you are sweating so much, are you sure you are okay?"

Qiqi took out a bronze mirror and placed it in front of him. Ye Luo looked at his miserable and dejected self in the mirror in disbelief, and couldn't help but think to himself: "This is impossible, my body can't be so weak..."

But at this moment, Ye Luo had something more worrying him, and that was the faces in his dreams.

"What on earth does this portend..."

"What else could it be a sign of? It's a sign that you haven't been resting well recently, and you've been working so hard on these evil and filthy things. I'm afraid you've bumped into something unclean."

Hu Tao took the opportunity to answer Ye Luo's mumbling.

Ye Luo smiled awkwardly, but he didn't dare to tell anyone about what happened in his dream, so he could only let it go.

Bai Zhu took out a packet of prepared medicine and put it in Hu Tao's arms: "Master Hu, follow my prescription and watch Young Master Ye Luo take the medicine after you go back. In a few days, all the cold poison in your body will be eliminated and you will recover naturally."

Hu Tao nodded and told Ye Luo: "Don't go out these few days. Just stay at home and recuperate. We can take care of the rest."

"How can that be possible! Things are just one step away from being completed. I must be with you at this time and cannot be absent!" Ye Luo objected flatly.

"You also know that it's just the finishing touch, so just leave it to us. Are we so unworthy of your trust?" Hu Tao looked at Ye Luo with disdain.

Ye Luo quickly defended himself: "That's not what I meant. Hall Master Hu is here, one person is worth two, how can I not trust him? It's just..."

Hu Tao took out a small notebook and said, "There are only the last few things left to deal with. The phoenix that only children can see, the blood in the well, and the paper man and straw horse carrying the sedan chair."

"Master Hu, what do you think? Where do you want to start the investigation?" Ye Luo asked.

Hu Tao coughed lightly and said, "Xiangling has already asked those kids about the Phoenix. Chongyun and Xingqiu have also investigated the well water issue. We have no clue about the paper figurines and straw horses. As for me, due to my special status, I know all about these things, so I will take a wait-and-see attitude towards this matter."

Ye Luo pursed his lips, hesitated for a moment, and then asked: "You... think there is indeed an evil spirit at work."

Hu Tao lowered her voice and said, "Ye Luo, I know you have never been convinced by these weird things, but I am the head of the "Wangsheng Hall". I have seen too many things that you think should not exist. Sometimes, it is really not just talk."

"I understand what you mean." Ye Luo climbed out of the bed, put on his coat, and insisted on standing up straight.

Hu Tao hurried to support him: "What are you doing..."

"Maybe there are some things I just can't find out clearly, but I have to give everyone an explanation. I can't ignore the neighbors' wait, and I can't let down Lady Keqing's trust."

"Even if this matter turns out to be caused by evil spirits, I have to see it with my own eyes before I can give up."

"Hey!" Hu Tao was unable to call Ye Luo. She watched him quicken his pace and walk out of "Bubu Lu".

"Bai Shu, I'm leaving first. I have to keep an eye on this guy to prevent him from getting into any trouble."

"Master Hu, please stay!" Bai Zhu stopped Hu Tao, who turned around and looked at him in confusion.

"what happened?"

"Ye Luo is a bit stubborn sometimes, he can be silly, and his persistence is a bit confusing, but if you think about it carefully, as a new resident who has just been in Liyue Harbor for less than half a year, he has been able to get to where he is today and win the trust and admiration of everyone. Isn't it because of his stubbornness to never give in to all injustice and evil?"

Walnut held onto the door frame and sighed softly: "I understand, I'm just worried..."

Bai Zhu smiled gently: "I understand, because of your identity, you have seen many things that ordinary people cannot see, so you understand that there are many things in this world that cannot be explained. If Ye Luo keeps investigating, the final gap will be too big, and he may be a little hurt."

Walnut nodded: "See, you can understand me..."

Bai Zhu smiled and said, "But hasn't he always been like this? If he retreats when faced with difficulties, then is he still the young hero Ye Luo who is fearless and dares to challenge, confront, and fight any evildoer head-on?"

Bai Zhu's words awakened Hu Tao. Hu Tao seemed to have made up her mind. She suddenly smiled and rushed out the door, running towards the direction where Ye Luo had gone.

At the same time, in the wilds of Liyue Harbor...

"You have already seen him..."

"Lingxing" and "Mars" were walking on a path in the woods when they suddenly heard a cold and dull voice.

"Mars" immediately raised his lips: "Hey, isn't this Brother Lonely? He came all the way to pick us up!"

"Earth Robbery" lay on the branch and sneered: "I don't know where your confidence comes from, but it's always good to have a little confidence."

Lingxing nodded: "We have met before, and he still looks the same as he did many years ago, but..."

Earth Robbery said, "It's just that he doesn't seem to have any memory of us at all. It's like he doesn't know us at all. He's like a blank sheet of paper now, or like a little child."

Mars scratched his head in annoyance. "Looking at his harmless face and his lack of impression of us, I once wondered if we had found the wrong person. Is he still the same Stolas?"

"Suzuhoshi" answered with great confidence: "It's absolutely right! I have a strong feeling about it!"
