Chapter 47: The Child Who Stole a Steamed Bun (2/2)

They found a hotel room before coming out to take a stroll as they looked for something to eat. Cheng Yu did not go into any of those big restaurants, but instead went to some street stalls and bought some snacks to eat. He felt that the street stalls that displayed the food openly were better than the restaurants where they only displayed some of their dishes in a menu.

The street was very lively during the night. Most of the people were tourists. They were all buying some unique foods and goods and they were attracting a lot of attention while doing so.

“Stay right there! You jinx! Every day, you come to my stall to steal a steamed bun. You think this is your home?” At this moment, Cheng Yu heard a person cursing loudly.

Cheng Yu looked toward the direction of the cursing and saw a short and fat guy, who is covered with a mustache and a white apron, who was restraining a child on the floor while scolding her. The child was very small, around five years old, as she curled up and lied on the floor. She used both of her hands to cover her chest. From the way the stall owner was scolding and hitting, the thing the child was covering in her chest was the steamed bun.

“Brat, after this beating let’s see if you still dare to steal!” The stall owner exerted all his strength and pressed the child on the floor and scolded.

The child did not speak as she curled her body and covered the steam bun. When the tourists saw the situation, they started to stick up for the child.

“Even if the child stole two steamed buns, do you need to bully the child like that?”

When the stall owner heard everyone was criticizing him, he raised his head and stared at these people, ”What do you all know?! Previously, I was kind hearted enough to let him steal a few times, taking it as pitying the child. But after that, this child came back every day to steal! The most important part is that ever since this child came to steal my bun, whenever someone consumes my bun, they say that they had a stomachache after that! Over the past few days, no one came to my stall to buy my buns anymore.

“Che! Perhaps the issue is with your buns. When he only stole two buns, it caused your buns to have issues?”

“Impossible! I tried it before. Before this jinx came over to my stall to start stealing, the buns had no issue at all! Today I will definitely teach her a lesson! In the future, don’t you ever dare to come over to my stall to steal my buns! Do you hear me?!”

“Do you hear me? Do you hear me?! Reply to me!” When the stall owner saw that the child was not replying to him, he got even angrier as he exerted more strength to press the child onto the floor.

“How could you do this! Do you want to kill this child?!” When she saw the stall owner’s behavior, a woman shouted pitifully.

“Believe it or not, I will kill you as well!” The stall owner stared at the woman and said viciously. The woman was frightened as she retreated two steps and no longer dared to say anything.

“Let her go, I guarantee that she will not steal your buns anymore.” Someone said in the crowd. A 18-year-old youngster walked out from the crowd. This person was Cheng Yu, who was observing the whole incident.

Cheng Yu knew that this stall owner was not lying. There’s some problem with the child’s body. The child’s body was actually emitting evil Qi. It’s very obvious that she was cursed by someone. From Cheng Yu’s Immortal World knowledge, he knew that this was a malicious devil magic that used an evil spirit incantation technique.

The evil spirit incantation technique was a technique that put an evil spirit into the victim’s body. The evil spirit relied on the victim’s body to absorb the world’s Qi. When the child was stealing the bun, it caused all the buns to be stained with evil Qi. When the customers ate the buns that were stained with evil Qi, the evil Qi would suck the vitality of the person before returning to the child’s body.

What made Cheng Yu feel strange was that this kind of curse technique would usually be placed in a body that had a special constitution. He could not understand why this cursed was placed into a child’s body instead.

Cheng Yu had been observing the child from the side, and finally felt a strain of spiritual Qi coming out of the child’s body. How could such a young child have spiritual Qi?

Cheng Yu was puzzled. After checking out the child’s body, he got even more puzzled. The evil spirit was supposed to absorb a person’s vitality to cultivate and the evil spirit in her should have already started forming. However, this kid was actually filled with vigor. This was not what he had expected.

Although he was not able to see anything temporarily, Cheng Yu brought the child away. Not only did Cheng Yu pity the child, he also felt that the evil spirit should not be kept in this world. It would violate the human laws in this world.

“You guarantee? What can you use as a guarantee?” The stall owner looked at Cheng Yu who was walking forward.

Cheng Yu went forward and squatted down in front of the child. He looked clearly at her facial features and realized it was a five year old young girl. Her face was filled with dirt, but she had an unyielding look and crystal clear eyes with a powerful spiritual body.

“Little girl, how about following big brother? Big brother will never let you suffer from hunger and the cold ever again,” Cheng Yu said to the little girl affectionately.

The little girl did not speak as she looked at Cheng Yu with her big eyes. At this moment, the little girl’s complexion turned unsightly as if she was in pain. Cheng Yu immediately passed some spiritual Qi over to her body.

Cheng Yu knew that the evil spirit in the little girl’s body was able to feel the threat from Cheng Yu, it wanted to control the little girl to prevent her from getting close to him.

With Cheng Yu’s spiritual Qi suppressing the evil spirit, the little girl relaxed and looked at Cheng Yu as she nodded. She felt that this big brother’s smile was filled with affection. In addition, this big brother helped her to relieve the pain just now.

Cheng Yu smiled as he carried the little girl up, ”Wu Chang, give this boss 2000 dollars, and treat it as the compensation for his losses these days.”

Wu Chang took out 20 red notes and passed it to the stall owner. The stall owner was overjoyed at the turn of events as he expressed his gratitude repeatedly. At first, he just wanted to vent his anger as over the past few days, his business had been very bad causing his temper to turn sour. He did not expect that he would actually meet such a fortunate event today.
