The night was deep, and Su Mu was sitting cross-legged, practicing the Heavenly Mechanism Divine Needle. Suddenly, a series of urgent phone rings shattered the tranquility of the night.
Su Mu picked up the phone and heard Doctor Wang's anxious voice on the other end: "Doctor Su, I’m really sorry to disturb you at this late hour, but… I have a tricky case here, and I hope you can help me take a look."
Upon hearing Doctor Wang's tone, Su Mu knew that something serious was at hand. "Doctor Wang, don’t worry, take your time and tell me what happened."
Doctor Wang furrowed his brow, a hint of panic in his eyes. He stammered slightly as he spoke: "It’s like this—there’s a student at our school who has encountered a problem. This student has recently been diagnosed with severe Somnambulism! But it’s not just ordinary Somnambulism; the situation is incredibly bizarre and strange! To be honest, based on my experience and judgment, I highly suspect… that this condition cannot be explained by typical sleepwalking..."
Hearing this, Su Mu felt a jolt in his heart and quickly pressed for more details. "What exactly is so bizarre about it? Please tell me everything!"
Doctor Wang took a deep breath, as if trying to suppress his inner fear and insecurity. After calming himself slightly, he began to recount the details.
"This student, every time she sleepwalks, her strength becomes astonishingly great. The power she exhibits is simply beyond what an ordinary girl should possess; even several strong men combined would likely struggle to match her. What’s even more terrifying is that she seems to lose all awareness of herself, completely oblivious to her actions. Sometimes, she inexplicably climbs to the rooftop of the teaching building and walks along the narrow edge as if it were solid ground;
Other times, she can crawl up vertical walls like Spider-Man, leaving onlookers terrified;
The most chilling part is that she suddenly attacks those around her without mercy, regardless of who they are.
The security guards at our school initially tried to stop her, but what happened? They couldn’t handle her at all and could only watch helplessly as she continued her rampage.
To be honest, I’m starting to suspect… whether she might be under some kind of evil curse or possession..." By the end of his explanation, Doctor Wang's voice had dropped to a whisper, as if afraid that some indescribable horror might hear him. The deep unease etched on his face was unmistakable.
Su Mu immediately thought of the previous situation with the Woodcutter's Wife and had an inkling of a guess: "When she sleepwalks, does she have a fixed route or pattern of behavior?"
After a moment of contemplation, Doctor Wang slowly lifted his head. His gaze was somewhat unfocused as if he were searching through his memories for relevant information.
He gently pressed his lips together and then spoke, "Regarding this matter... to be honest, I haven't really paid much attention to it." He paused slightly, as if suddenly recalling something, and added, "However, a few days ago, a student mentioned casually during a chat that the girl seems to always head towards the back mountain of the school. The specifics of what she does there weren't made very clear; it was just something said in passing." After saying this, Doctor Wang shook his head lightly, indicating that his knowledge was limited.
The back mountain? Su Mu remembered that his master had once mentioned that the back mountain of the school was a place where Spiritual Energy gathered, but it also tended to breed some Evil Spirits. "Doctor Wang, please tell me the patient's detailed condition. I'll go to the school first thing tomorrow morning."
Doctor Wang was overjoyed at this response. "That's wonderful! Doctor Su, thank you so much! I'll wait for you at the school tomorrow morning!"
After hanging up the phone, Su Mu's previously relaxed brows furrowed tightly, as if twisted together by an invisible force. He slowly raised his head and gazed into the distance, pondering the matters mentioned in the call.
The back mountain of the school had always been a mysterious and unknown place. It was said that Spiritual Energy often gathered there, creating a unique aura.
However, as the saying goes, extremes lead to opposites; such concentrated Spiritual Energy also attracted some unknown Evil Spirits that lurked in hiding.
Thinking of this, Su Mu couldn't help but shake his head, a hint of worry appearing on his face.
This situation seemed far from simple; a student had actually developed Somnambulism, and from the information currently available, it was clear that this was no ordinary illness.
It was highly likely connected to the supernatural events hidden in the shadows of the back mountain.
"It seems I need to personally investigate the back mountain thoroughly first thing tomorrow morning," Su Mu murmured to himself, his tone firm and resolute.
He understood that this matter was of great importance; if he could not uncover the truth in time and take appropriate measures, the consequences would be unimaginable. Thus, he decided to temporarily set aside other tasks and devote himself entirely to investigating this bizarre incident.
He rose and walked to the window, gazing out at the deep night sky, lost in thought. His master had once said that the Medical Path was not just about healing but also about helping society and driving away evil.
Although Su Mu had made some progress in his medical skills, he had only just stepped into the realm of cultivation, and there was still a long road ahead.
With this thought in mind, he took a deep breath and returned to his bedside to continue his meditation and training. He needed to improve his cultivation level as quickly as possible to better face the various challenges that might arise in the future. He understood that tomorrow could bring yet another test for him.
