Chapter 291 The k.u.man Thong 1

Ye Shaoyang said nothing and looked at her, waiting for her to tell the truth .

Zhuang Yuning looked from Ye Shaoyang to Xiao Ma and Xie Yuqing, feeling a little embarra.s.sed as she pleaded, “Mr . Ye, can we have a --”

“Don’t worry . They are my best friends and my a.s.sistants . You can tell everything to them as you would tell me . ” Ye Shaoyang interrupted .

Xie Yuqing rolled her eyes, “Straight to the topic . I am not your fan, and I don’t have much time to gossip . ”

Zhuang Yuning hung her head low as she drew in a deep breath and faltered out a few words that puzzled the three, “That child spirit, I reared it… . ”

Then, she shook her head and smiled bitterly, “If I knew that this would happen, I would rather not rear it and choose not to be a celebrity . Mr . Ye, have you ever heard about rearing a child spirit?”

“Are you referring to k.u.man Thong?” Ye Shaoyang asked .

Zhuang Yuning replied, “I don’t know . My friend helped me adopt one . I have been rearing it for more than two years to help me become famous . But, I did not really learn about the k.u.man Thong . Umm, let me think about how I should explain this incident to you . ” As she spoke, she looked up at Ye Shaoyang .

Xiao Ma and Xie Yuqing also looked at Ye Shaoyang, curious .

Ye Shaoyang frowned a little . He did not know much about the k.u.man Thong’s craft, but he did have certain level of understanding about this craft: It was a craft among the folk sorcerer; a practice that prevailed in Thailand . Some temples would take in the soul of the babies who died prematurely or the soul of the children who died young and seal them into humanoid puppets . They would pray for them to cleanse the Violent Qi in the soul and give them to the followers to adopt . These are k.u.man Thong, also known as the wealth boy . If one sincerely believed it and fed the k.u.man Thong, it would show its power . It could change one’s luck and fulfil some of their dreams .

Due to its power, k.u.man Thong had a high demand, and some made it into a business . Some people would request a specially made k.u.man Thong according to their needs . However, as long as it was a true k.u.man Thong, the Violent Qi would have been removed, and they would not turn into an evil spirit .

Then, Ye Shaoyang asked, “Miss Zhuang, where did you get the k.u.man Thong from? A Chinese or a Thai person?”

“From a local . ”

“What did you feed your k.u.man Thong?”

“Raw pig meat, sometimes with the pig blood . Does that matter?”

Ye Shaoyang sighed, “Yup . There are two methods to feed a k.u.man Thong, feeding with the foods we usually eat like milk, cakes, twice a day and --”

“Can a spirit actually drink milk and eat cake?” Xiao Ma interrupted .

“No . They will absorb the essence of the food for cultivation . ” Looking at their confused faces, Ye Shaoyang felt like he had to organize his answer and explain in detail:

“k.u.man Thong is a spirit cultivating in a virtuous way . Therefore, the speed of cultivation is slow, and they can do limited things . Most of time, they can turn their feeder’s luck for the better . However, like Miss Zhuang, who fed the k.u.man Thong with raw meat and blood, it is considered as cultivating in an evil way . The k.u.man Thong will quickly increase its cultivation and can do more things than the former . Once the k.u.man Thong confirms its owner, the owner would have no way to abandon it . So, Miss Zhuang, if I am not mistaken, you abandoned your k.u.man Thong and it returned, am I right?”

Zhuang Yuning looked at him and nodded, her face was pale, and her eyes welled up with tears as she replied in thick voice, “I really don’t know about this . Xiao Ying did not tell me much . She said if I fed the spirit day and night, it will help me to fulfil my dreams . My dream is to become a popular singer . All the while, I believe I am good in singing and gifted in many ways, but my luck was always lacking slightly, and I could not become famous .

“Xiao Ying, or Zhu Zhongying, is my roommate . She comes from a rich family . One day, she told me she had a friend who became rich because of selling k.u.man Thong, and he is close to a master who produces k.u.man Thong . Learning that it was harmless, Xiaoying kept trying to persuade me to get one, so I agreed to adopt one in the end . Then, I fed it with milk twice a day . Since then, my carrier has reached to a peak . I won a popular singing compet.i.tion last year and became well-known . ”

As Zhuang Yuning spoke, she shook her head, wiped away her tears, and paused for a moment before she continued, “After one and half year of feeding, I started to hear a child’s laughter and footsteps in the house . I was afraid and planned to stop feeding it, but when I realized it will not hurt me and never disturbed my life, I continued . Then, it became stronger; sometimes, I could see him in the reflection of mirrors . It looked like a small kid, standing behind me, sucking his thumb and looking at me, so adorable… . ”

“Well, I don’t see the cuteness of it . ” Xiao Ma interrupted as he recalled the terrifying look of the child spirit and shook his head .

“It had a pair of clear, sky blue eyes, cute lips, and smooth skin, different from the one we saw tonight… . ” She raised her head and showed a nostalgic face .

“I could still remember those days it covered the blanket for me at night and closed the window if I had forgotten . I am not a tidy person . After it became stronger, it would help me clean up the mess every morning . It was such a considerate child . I even dismissed the maid that used to work in my house… . ”

Ye Shaoyang recalled Zhuang Yuning’s awkward expression when he asked her about the maid . Now, he understood why .

Zhuang Yuning continued, “I enjoyed the way it treated me, but, it all changed when I was joining an important singing compet.i.tion . I wanted to get a good rank . Then, I remembered Xiaoying telling me that if I wanted to achieve something quickly, I could choose to feed it with raw meat and blood . She did warn me that if I feed it with that, it will stick with me forever . ”

“I thought it would still be the same, and I would love living together with it forever if it was . But, I didn’t know the consequences of feeding it with blood and raw meat .

Two months later, I won that compet.i.tion . Since then, my k.u.man Thong has changed . It became paler than usual and its eyes turned blood-red . It did not help me to do housework anymore . Although my career was progressing swimmingly, I dreamt of it drinking my blood every night .

“I tried to stop feeding it with raw meat and blood, but it threatened me in my dreams . Then, Xiaoying told me that I had no way to stop once I started, and it would become fierce and malicious and drink my blood… . ”
