Ten Thousand Soul Banner: Deceased, do you have any unfulfilled wishes?-Chapter 1179 - 1175: Education

Tang Tang looked up and suddenly saw Xiao Yue, Dou Dou, and Duoduo, her eyes instantly lit up like tiny stars.

She patted the large pink plush donkey beneath her.

Riding her "mount" she dashed toward the group, her little legs gently kicking on the "donkey’s body," with joy filling her little face.

"Sister~ Duoduo... naughty Douzi..."

In her dreams, the little one obviously preferred to be more talkative.

As her mood grew more elated, the surrounding dreamscape became more dazzling and vivid.

Clouds like cotton candy floated quicker in the sky, sprinkling sparkly powder, cool and sweet, onto her body.

Little steamed buns and baozi on the ground puffed their round bellies, bouncing gently, as if dancing to her laughter.

The Juice River foamed with colorful bubbles, Jelly Mountain shimmered with a soft light, even the air carried a faint scent of milk.

The whole world was gently responding to her happiness.

Here, no danger lurked, no Heavenly Thunder, no glassy beaches,

only endless snacks, countless toys, an eternally warm fairytale world.

Simple, pure, carefree—these were Tang Tang’s truest emotions.

Xiao Yue approached, gently squatted down, lightly placed her palm on Tang Tang’s soft little face, her voice as gentle as the evening breeze over a lake:

"Tang Tang, at the seaside today, were you very angry?"

Tang Tang tilted her little head, her round eyes a bit puzzled, and instinctively clenched her little hand, her voice soft: "Naughty Douzi... pulls pulls..."

She vividly remembered Dou Dou pinching her face and pulling her little braids.

The next moment, the pink sky above her suddenly quivered, the dream was like a film being played.

The daytime beach scene appeared automatically: she was buried in the sand, her little brows furrowed, Dou Dou gleefully tugging her little pigtails.

Instantly, dark clouds pressed down, a huge bolt of lightning with a crackling sound descended from the sky, straight onto the beach, splashing a glassy halo.

"Ah~"

Dou Dou cried out lightly in fear, her face turned pale instantly, her whole body tensed up, instinctively shrank behind Xiao Yue, tightly clutching Xiao Yue’s clothing, only daring to peek half a face, eyes full of dread.

Only at this moment did she truly see the terror of the daytime thunder, realizing she was so close to being struck as popcorn.

Xiao Yue gently patted Dou Dou’s back, soothingly rubbed her hair, then turned back, still gazing gently at Tang Tang, her voice full of patience:

"Tang Tang, you see, when you’re unhappy, scary lightning comes down from the sky, it not only damages the beach but could also hurt Dou Dou, hurt Sister Taozi, hurt Sister Hongzhuang, and hurt everyone who loves you..."

Tang Tang stared at the reappearing lightning in the sky, the joy on her little face gradually faded, replaced by confusion.

Just then, Xiao Yue raised her hand and gently waved.

The light and shadow of the dreamscape swirled abruptly, and in the distance, a "Dou Dou" suddenly appeared out of thin air.

Looking identical to the real Dou Dou, with hands on hips and puffed cheeks, boasting a mischievously triumphant look.

Before anyone could react, a bolt of lightning, thicker and brighter than before, with a world-destroying crackle suddenly struck toward that "Dou Dou."

"Poof~"

Without extra sound, that "Dou Dou" instantly shattered into pieces under the lightning, turning into fragments of light and disappearing in the dreamscape without leaving any trace behind.

"Wah~"

The real Dou Dou screamed sharply in fear, no longer daring to hide behind Xiao Yue, quickly ran behind Duoduo, peeking around, thinking Sister Xiao Yue was truly too ruthless.

The scene just now was far more frightening than the daytime Heavenly Thunder for her.

She witnessed herself being struck to disappearance, only then she truly understood that the thunder drawn by Tang Tang could truly "make people disappear."

Xiao Yue didn’t comfort the trembling Dou Dou, her gaze fell on Tang Tang’s face, pointing at the place where "Dou Dou" disappeared, she spoke softly: "Tang Tang, you see, thunder is so terrifying; it doesn’t only cause pain but can also kill Dou Dou, prevent her from ever building sandcastles or collecting shells with you, from ever playing with you again..."

The word "die," Tang Tang understood.

She had seen little motionless bugs by the roadside, had watched chicken being slaughtered at the welfare center.

The little one said aggrievedly: "I... I don’t want to kill bad Douzi... I just... just got really angry..."

As her grievance welled up in her heart, the surrounding dreamscape morphed accordingly.

The bright pink sky was now covered with a layer of gray mist, even the light became dim, losing every bit of warmth.

In the distance, Jelly Mountain lost its luster, turning into a dark purple, like drooping after being soaked by rain.

The Juice River no longer foamed with colorful bubbles, its waters turned murky.

The ground where little steamed buns and baozi had been now vanished, replaced by a wet, soggy muddy land.

The air had lost its fragrance, leaving only a humid, stuffy scent, like clothes not drying on a cloudy day, weighing people’s hearts heavily.

Xiao Yue, Duoduo, and Dou Dou weren’t surprised by this because dreams always shifted with the dreamer’s mood; they were used to it.

Seeing this, Xiao Yue bent down, gently embraced Tang Tang, warmly patting her back: "Sister knows, Tang Tang is the best and didn’t want to hurt Dou Dou, didn’t want to hurt anyone, right?"

Tang Tang nodded obediently.

Xiao Yue continued: "You were just angry at Dou Dou for bullying you, wanting to teach her a lesson, right?"

Tang Tang nodded again.

"If we encounter something upsetting again, or if someone bullies you, we can tell Brother, tell me, and Sister Taozi, Sister Hongzhuang, we will all help you teach a lesson to the bullies..."

Xiao Yue held her little face, "We don’t need to use lightning to strike someone; lightning’s too dangerous, it could hurt those who love you, and it could make Tang Tang unhappy too, right?"

"Mhm..."

Tang Tang responded softly and obediently.

Xiao Yue guided further: "So, from now on, let’s not call down lightning recklessly; when angry, tell an adult, let everyone help you solve it, okay?"

Tang Tang nodded obediently.

"So, if Dou Dou pulls your braids or pinches your face again, what will you do?" Xiao Yue asked deliberately, wanting to see if she truly understood.

Tang Tang tilted her little head in thought, then clenched her little fist and said, "Hit her."

Xiao Yue: ...

"Okay, as long as it’s not using lightning to strike."

Dou Dou peeked her round eyes from behind Duoduo, thinking, "Is this really how Sister Xiao Yue teaches Tang Tang?"

She felt Sister Xiao Yue might have misguided Tang Tang.

"Alright, let’s not talk about this now."

Xiao Yue also knew not to say too much at once, and Tang Tang might not take it all in, it should happen gradually.

Seeing Xiao Yue smile, Tang Tang’s earlier grievance seemed to vanish instantly, pulling Xiao Yue’s hand, pointing at the dark purple Jelly Mountain in the distance, she happily shouted: "Play... climb mountains, ride donkey donkey climb mountains..."

As her mood improved, the gray dreamscape around also gradually brightened, some mist dispelled, the murky Juice River gently rippling anew, and few small, tender yellow flowers even sprouted on the moist mud land...
