So I forced myself to call my uncle again and told him about my abnormal physical condition. After listening to me, my uncle pondered for a moment and said, "Don't worry, it's definitely not a serious illness. I'll bring someone to your house this afternoon."

"That Yin Turtle had an effect on me, didn't it?"

"No, don't think about it. Just go home and lie down peacefully. We'll talk about it after we get there."

It must be the influence of the Yin Turtle. The reason why Uncle San is unwilling to say it clearly is that he is afraid of taking responsibility, because he was the one who gave me this Yin Turtle.

But there is nothing to complain about. He was just taking care of me and wanted me to make some money. As for the accident that happened, I can't blame him. It's not an incurable disease anyway. They will definitely find a way to deal with this trouble.

Thinking of this, I asked Chu Sen to take me home to lie down until my third uncle came with his men in the afternoon.

The person who came this time was not Luo Tianbao, but Wu Tianxiong, the head of the big house. I don’t know why every time I see him I feel an invisible pressure, even making it difficult for me to breathe. Is it because he is too ugly?

Wu Tianxiong's already ferocious facial features looked even more awkward because they were too serious.

The two of them sat on the sides of my bed, and Uncle San said, "The cause of your illness is definitely not related to the Yin Turtle."

"What's the reason?" To be honest, I didn't believe what my uncle said at all.

"Let your eldest brother tell you. He knows more about this than I do."

Wu Tianxiong asked, "When did you return home after selling the Yin turtle yesterday?"

"I got home around nine o'clock. My uncle was just downstairs when I called him."

"You walked home, didn't you?"

"Yes, it wasn't far, so I didn't take the bus."

"Are there streetlights?"

Wu Tianxiong's words became increasingly strange, and I said angrily, "Brother, is it possible that a metropolis like Shanghai doesn't have street lights at night?"

"I know, but these situations are related to your current physical condition, so I must ask clearly."

"Is there a connection between streetlights and my dizziness? Am I dizzy because of the light?"

Wu Tianxiong said, "Since there are street lights, there will be shadows. When you were going home yesterday, did you notice if there was a pregnant woman following you?"

I was at a loss for words and said, "When I walk, I look ahead. How can I know who's following me?"

Wu Tianxiong said, "You've most likely encountered a stepping fetus. This means a pregnant woman with the exact same birth chart as yours stepped on your shadow. The probability of this happening is extremely low, but it happened to you."

I was completely stunned and said, "As long as there is light, there will be shadows. Could it be that stepping on a shadow will have an impact on people?"

"It will only have an impact if a pregnant woman with the same birth chart as the mother steps on it. The fetus has extremely strong spiritual energy at the beginning of its formation, and this spiritual energy will affect a male with the same birth chart as the mother. This is called stepping on the fetus. Besides dizziness, there are also various symptoms such as irritability and anxiety. Don't underestimate the influence of the fetal spirit on people. If you don't cut off the spiritual energy in time, you will not only feel dizzy, but you will also get into big trouble later."

"Help me cut it off quickly, big brother. I don't want to spend my whole life in a state of dizziness and unable to take care of myself."

Wu Tianxiong did not respond immediately, but remained silent.

I said smartly, "Brother, although we are relatives, just tell me how much the fee is. Don't be polite."

"I'm not telling you, kid, what are you thinking about? Am I really that poor? You're calculating money with your own brother." He said angrily.

"Xiao Zhen, the most important thing now is to get you back to normal. Don't think too much about useless things." Uncle San said.

I blushed at what they said and quickly apologized, "Brother, I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have mentioned money to you."

"Brother, don't always think about money, and don't look down on others. It's true that your eldest brother is a country boy, but he's not the kind of guy who would make money from his brothers."

Uncle San also stepped in to smooth things over, saying, "Don't say that. Xiao Zhen wouldn't be like that. He's used to doing business and is used to solving everything with money, so he asked you for money, but he definitely didn't mean any harm."

"Uncle San is right. I really don't mean to look down on you, Big Brother. I admire your abilities very much. I worship you so much that I can't even look down on you."

At this point, the eldest brother's expression softened slightly and he said, "My hesitation isn't about the money, but how to solve the problem of the flat tire."

"Is it difficult?" I asked nervously.

"It's not difficult."

"Then what are you worried about?" I said.

Wu Tianxiong frowned slightly and said, "Let me put it this way, this spiritual energy will haunt you after you step on the fetus. All the unhappiness is caused by the human body being possessed by the spiritual energy. It is not difficult to cut off this spiritual energy, but if the spiritual energy is cut off, the fetus will die." I was stunned after hearing this.

After a moment of silence, Wu Tianxiong said, "That is to say, if I perform a ritual to cut off spiritual energy , the price will be the loss of a life."

"I, I..." I didn't know what to say.

I am not a saint. What I was thinking in my mind was definitely to perform a ritual to save myself. It is not that I am cruel. After all, this was trouble brought to me by others, not me who took the initiative to provoke it. The pregnant woman should pay the price for her accidental "cheating behavior".

But this is at the cost of an innocent life. How can I say this with such impunity?

Seeing that I didn't speak for a long time, Wu Tianxiong said, "What do you think? You must give me an answer."

"Oh, I might as well just be dizzy and dazed for the rest of my life." I didn't know what to say, so I could only say a lie that was against my will but seemed "full of positive energy".

"You think you're just dizzy and dazed? That's the condition before the baby is born. Once you're born, you'll age rapidly, and every aspect of your body will be diseased. You'll suffer in pain for a long time before you die tragically."

Wu Tianxiong's words made me sweat all over. At this time, Chu Sen said loudly: "Old Yu, you are still hesitating. If you don't take care of yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth. Protecting yourself at the critical moment is in line with human nature. There is no need to hesitate."

There was no turning back at this point. I gritted my teeth and said, "Brother, I want to live."

Wu Tianxiong didn't hesitate and stood up and said, "Okay, since you've decided, I'll stop stepping on the fetus this time. However, after the ritual, you have to perform a ritual for the fetus' spirit for seven days and seven nights to save his soul. The cost of this will be paid by you, but if you don't perform the ritual, both you and I will be in trouble."

"clear."

Afterwards, Wu Tianxiong and Chu Sen helped me to the kitchen. I sat on a bench and Wu Tianxiong took out a raw egg from the refrigerator, wrapped it in a red cloth, and rolled it back and forth on my forehead, muttering something as he rolled it. Strangely enough, at first I could feel the coolness of the egg and felt very dizzy, but when the temperature of the egg was gradually warmed by my body temperature, the dizziness felt much better.

"Get up." Wu Tianxiong helped me stand up. I didn't feel dizzy anymore. Then he rubbed my chest with an egg. He did it very quickly and it was obvious that he had practiced it specially.

After rubbing for a long time, the skin on my chest was even a little hot from the friction. Wu Tianxiong finally stopped and put the egg on the table. He patted my back and said, "Get up."

This time I really wasn't dizzy at all. I stood steadily and said, "Brother, your hand really works immediately."

"Don't rush to praise me, this isn't over yet." He then set up a wok, filled it with oil, and then lit the gas. "You have to fry the eggs yourself before it's over."

After I took the egg, he said, "I told you to fry it. When you crack the egg into the frying pan, you can only use your left hand to open the eggshell. Try to let the egg liquid flow into the frying pan. The cleaner it flows, the better for you."

After a while, the oil temperature was very high, and thick smoke rose up. Wu Tianxiong said, "Fry the eggs."

I took the egg in my left hand, cracked the shell, and pinched it open in the center of the oil pan. I saw the egg white wrapped in a red yolk falling into the boiling oil. With a "sizzling" sound, oil splashed everywhere. Wu Tianxiong grabbed a handful of salt and sprinkled it into the oil pan, and the hot oil immediately began to churn.

However, then a baby's body with healthy limbs emerged from the egg liquid that was frying in the boiling oil, and the sound coming from the oil pan was no longer a "sizzling" sound, but the sound of a baby crying.

At that moment, I was so scared that I turned around and wanted to run, but Wu Tianxiong stopped me from behind and said, "Your fetal spirit is still there. If you go more than five meters, you will bleed to death."
