However, when Gu Peng opened his eyes, he saw Gu Ming standing in front of him, staring at his eyes with a strange smile.
This frightened Gu Peng so much that he shrank back in his chair. “Gu Ming, why are you staring at me?”
Gu Ming still did not move, but the words he said made Gu Peng even more afraid.
“Doctor Gu, how does it feel to be blind?” After saying that, Gu Ming turned around and sat on the sofa with his legs crossed. All these actions told Gu Peng that the person in front of him was not Gu Ming.
“If there’s anything, come at me. Don’t make things difficult for the child. Tell me, what do you want?” Gu Peng frowned. He knew that the thing the person in front of him wanted was definitely not simple, but he would risk it for his nephew.
“It’s nothing. I want a bottle of Yunbao’s blood. I think this matter isn’t difficult for you!” Gu Ming narrowed his eyes.
Just as Gu Peng was about to refuse, Gu Lin returned with Gu Zi and Yunbao.
Seeing that Eighth Uncle had regained his vision, Yunbao’s mood improved. She turned around and met Gu Ming’s gaze.
Yunbao felt that she had seen Gu Ming’s gaze before. Oh right, the last time Li Hu was controlled by the puppet technique, it was this gaze.
In the blink of an eye, Gu Ming had returned to his original self.
Gu Ming looked at Yunbao, who was staring at him, and remembered that Yunbao had saved him just now. He scratched his head uncomfortably.
“Yunbao, be careful of your brother. Not only was he cursed by the puppet technique, but he was also cursed by the substitution technique.” Song Yun appeared again to remind Yunbao.
“What kind of spell is the substitution technique?” Yunbao was very interested in this new term.
“If the puppet technique is the manipulator controlling others to do things according to their will, then the substitution technique is the manipulator trying to occupy someone else’s body, absorb their soul, and finally take their body for themselves.”
After hearing Song Yun’s explanation, Yunbao hurriedly nodded. “Oh, so that’s how it is.”
“However, there’s something bad that I have to tell you in advance. I want you to be mentally prepared. Your brother’s body will be completely occupied in a few days. His time of self-consciousness will decrease.” Song Yun sighed.
“Master, is there a way to crack it? I want to help him.” Although Yunbao knew that the Gu Ming did not like her, he was also her family. She had to protect him.
Hearing Yunbao’s anxious tone, Song Yun comforted her. “There are still ways, but the Puppet Technique and Substitution Technique are both forbidden techniques. If you want to crack them, you have to pay the corresponding price…”
At night, when they returned home, Gu Lin instructed the servants to bring Gu Zi, Yunbao, and Gu Ming to the garden to play. Gu Zi and Yunbao skipped towards the garden, while Gu Ming silently went upstairs and returned to his room as usual.
Gu Lin and Gu Peng came to the study to discuss Gu Ming’s situation.
“What’s going on with Gu Ming?” Gu Lin asked impatiently as soon as he closed the study door. In the end, he was still not qualified as a father. He had paid too little attention to his child in the past, but other than being quiet, Gu Ming was outstanding in all aspects.
“There might be two people in Gu Ming’s body.” Gu Peng observed Gu Lin’s expression when he said this, afraid that his words would agitate Gu Lin.
“In other words, Gu Ming has schizophrenia?” Gu Lin looked at Gu Peng in disbelief, hoping that Gu Peng would give him a negative answer.
“Actually, that’s not the case. Gu Ming’s physical condition and mental state are normal. It’s just that two souls live in his body.” Gu Peng did not know if Gu Lin could understand what he meant.
Gu Lin silently lit a cigarette and slowly sat down, although he did not understand how such a thing could happen to Gu Ming.
Now that things had developed to this point, what he had to do was to think of a way to help Gu Ming chase out the other soul in his body.
Suddenly, Gu Lin and Gu Peng looked at each other. They had been brothers for many years and both of them understood what the other was thinking.
They thought of Yunbao. Perhaps Yunbao could solve this matter. Although they knew that their thoughts were too ridiculous, they trusted Yunbao from the bottom of their hearts..
