Ten Thousand Soul Banner: Deceased, do you have any unfulfilled wishes? Chapter 954 - 950: Message Delivered

As the hustle and bustle of Hui Min Street gradually subsided, Shen Siyuan suddenly rembered the task entrusted by Zhang Siyuan.

Previously, on the roadside while heading to Taiyuan, he unexpectedly ran into the elderly Zhang Siyuan who, upon learning they were heading to Xijing, gave a specific address and requested to pass on a ssage to his son, Zhang Xingguo, who works in Xiajing, telling him to return ho because he had left sothing for him.

However, Zhang Siyuan had already passed away for several years. Shen Siyuan certainly couldn’t go during the day to tell soone that their father wanted them to co ho because he left sothing, as that would definitely seem crazy.

In such matters, it’s more practical to communicate through dreams. Whether Zhang Xingguo believed it or not was his concern; after all, Shen Siyuan had delivered Zhang Siyuan’s ssage.

Therefore, Shen Siyuan thought of waiting until the dead of night for Xiao Yue to take Duoduo and Dou Dou there since they were spirits and it would be more convenient for them to move around.​​

"Rember the address? You three go together, and be safe on the road. Don’t get too playful," Shen Siyuan instructed Xiao Yue.

Xiao Yue nodded and said, "Got it, don’t worry."​​

Dou Dou was already hopping around in excitent: "Great! Going out at night! I haven’t flown in Xiajing at night yet!"​​

Duoduo also nodded, her eyes full of anticipation.

After everyone fell asleep, Xiao Yue led Duoduo and Dou Dou quietly out of the hotel.

In the deep night, Xiajing shed the day’s bustle. Only a few street lamps were lit, and the night breeze carried a slight chill.

Xiao Yue first transford into a gust of Yin Wind, drifting into the sky: "Hurry up and follow, let’s go and co back early."​​

Dou Dou, imitating Xiao Yue, jumped up forcefully and also turned into a little Yin Wind, but not controlling the direction well, she bumped into a nearby streetlamp pole.

"Ouch," she exclaid, instinctively rubbing her little head, grumbling, "Why is this streetlamp pole so hard!"​​

It actually didn’t cause her any harm at all.

Seeing her antics, Duoduo couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

"Take it slow, follow Sister Xiao Yue’s direction."​​

Xiao Yue turned her head and helplessly glanced at Dou Dou: "Don’t be so rash, quickly follow along."​​

Dou Dou stuck out her tongue, turning back into Yin Wind, closely tailing behind Xiao Yue.

The three spiritual bodies floated in the night sky over Xiajing, beneath their feet lay the sleeping city.

In the distance, the ancient city wall shimred with a pale gray light in the moonlight, the golden rooftop of the Bell Tower was like it was sprinkled with a layer of silver, and occasionally, late-returning vehicles passed on the streets, their headlights trailing long streaks of light on the ground, quickly disappearing into the night.​​

"Wow! Look, that’s the Big Treasure Pagoda!" Duoduo suddenly pointed in the distance, shouting with excitent.

"That’s the Great Wild Goose Pagoda," Xiao Yue corrected.​​

In the moonlight, the silhouette of the Great Wild Goose Pagoda was clearly visible, the tower stood straight, its spire shimring slightly in the night.​​

Dou Dou also leaned over to look: "It’s huge, should we fly over to take a look? I wonder if there’re any geese inside, by the way, what do geese look like?"

Dou Dou maneuvered with the Yin Wind, spinning in circles in the air.​​

"No, let’s deliver the ssage first, we can check it out later," Xiao Yue decisively refused.

Dou Dou had to give up but couldn’t help looking back at the Great Wild Goose Pagoda now and then, her face full of regret.​​

After all, it was also Xiao Yue’s first ti in Xijing, and being unfamiliar with the roads, even though Shen Siyuan had told her in advance, searching while flying in the air still took so effort. By the ti they found the place, the night had deepened.

It was a place called Auspicious Lane, lacking the bustling prosperity of the city center, with low-rise residential houses lining the street, the windows occasionally emitting a dim light, and a few small restaurants still open, the aroma of late-night snacks wafting out.

Upon turning into Auspicious Lane, a faint "ow-ow" sound was heard.

A black stray cat crouched in the corner of a wall, raising its head curiously as it saw the three floating by, its tail swaying gently.

Dou Dou was imdiately captivated, quietly drifting over, wanting to pet the cat’s head, but as soon as her hand touched the cat’s fur, the cat sprang away with a "whoosh," watching her warily, a rumbling sound erging from its throat.​​

"Wow, it can see ?" Dou Dou was sowhat surprised.​​

"So small animals are very sensitive, even if they can’t see us, they can sense our presence and naturally beco wary," Xiao Yue explained.

"Alright, don’t waste ti, hurry and find the person."

Dou Dou reluctantly left, waving at the cat before departing: "I’ll co see you again next ti!"​​

Exiting Auspicious Lane, fifty ters ahead was a residential area nad "Lanting".

This was a well-known high-end residential community in the northern suburbs of Xiajing, guarded by security booths at the entrance, the European-style buildings exuding elegance in the night, the landscape lights in the courtyard glowing warmly, scattered night lamps hidden among neatly trimd shrubs, entirely different from the old street alleys they had passed earlier.

Xiao Yue, checking against the address given by Shen Siyuan, led Duoduo and Dou Dou, floating into the community, unnoticed by the security and caras.

Although there were many buildings in the community, these posed no difficulty to them as Yin Wind. They soon found Zhang Xingguo’s residence.

Xiao Yue turned into a wisp of faint blue smoke, slipping through the door crack.

The lighting in the living room was soft, decorated in a simple new Chinese style, with an ink wash landscape painting on the wall and an unfinished financial newspaper and a cup of warm Pu’er tea on the coffee table.

A man in his forties was sitting on the sofa, dressed in high-quality loungewear, holding a docunt in one hand, his expression steady with the composure of middle age, the very image of Zhang Siyuan’s son, Zhang Xingguo. He was a civil servant in the tax departnt, exuding a hint of precision in his deanor.​​

Faint sounds of keyboard tapping ca from the study, suggesting his wife, who worked at a bank, was still dealing with work.

The guest room’s light was on, glimpses through the door crack of high school textbooks spread on the desk, implying their high school-aged son was still studying.

The whole house exuded an air of warmth and order, perfectly matching Zhang Siyuan’s description of their good life in Xiajing.

"Wow, it’s quite late, aren’t they going to sleep?"

Upon entering, Dou Dou expressed discontent at the late hour the family was still up.

"No worries, I have a way."

Xiao Yue floated beside Zhang Xingguo, observing his serious expression as he pored over the docunts, gently raising her hand, with a touch of gentle yin energy gathering at her fingertips.

Inducing dreams for adults requires more subtle guidance, avoiding dense yin energy that might disturb him.

The yin energy slowly reached Zhang Xingguo’s forehead, soon prompting him to rub his brow, yawn, placing the docunt on the coffee table as he leaned back on the sofa, closing his eyes to rest, gradually slipping into a light sleep.

Watching from the side, Dou Dou extended her short, pudgy fingers, examining closely, feeling quite puzzled why she couldn’t do such a trick herself.

In the dream, Zhang Xingguo returned to the courtyard of his hotown...

His father, Zhang Siyuan, dressed in a worn, faded old military uniform, hunched over, with hands clasped behind his back, stood beneath the ginkgo tree, sunlight filtering through the leaves, leaving dappled shadows on him...
