After listening to the story of Granny Tianhua and Jiang Jiuzhen, I really felt a little sad.
I comforted Granny Tianhua and said, "Granny Tianhua, don't worry, I will help you find Jiang Jiuzhen."
Granny Smallpox wiped the tears from her face and nodded, "Thank you, child."
After that, without much chat, we went down the mountain and returned to the bamboo house.
It got dark quickly, there were not many clouds, and the sky was bright.
The stars dot the sea of stars, so deep and distant.
Everyone else was asleep.
Lying on the bed, I fell asleep quickly.
The words and pictures in the dream flooded into my mind. Those memories were left in my mind by the person in the black coffin. There were secret methods to control the red lacquer coffin, some Taoist techniques, and how to find the fragments of the divine map... ...
I even discovered a Taoist technique called "The True Words of Enlightenment". There are nine chapters of The True Words of Enlightenment, each of which is extremely profound and requires communication with the stars and spiritual energy to work. But now I can't even sense the "spirit", let alone the "spiritual energy".
But just like browsing the news on Baidu, I was immersed in the true words of enlightenment and found them to be very profound and interesting.
"When I woke up, the sun was already shining on my butt! ... "
I felt someone pushing me in my sleep.
I slowly opened my eyes, and a face came into my sight. It was my master Zhang Chu.
"Master, it's you!" I said.
Zhang Chu looked at me and said, "Tianyi, why do you look so tired? Did you consume too much Yin De Qi yesterday?"
I slowly sat up from the bed, rubbed my temples, and said, "No, I slept too deeply and my head hurts a little."
I didn't tell Zhang Chu because I had received those secret techniques. After all, the person in the giant black coffin was too mysterious.
I got up quickly, and by this time everyone else had gotten up too.
After a night's rest, Lou Xiaoman and Zhao Xilan felt much better.
Especially Zhao Xilan, her face was a little pale before, but now it has become a little more rosy.
After breakfast, Zhao Xilan came to me with a smile on her face and said cheerfully, "Thank you for saving me, brother Tianyi. If you hadn't shown your might yesterday, I would have been killed by that woman in the cave."
I shook my head and said with a smile, "Hehe, Sister Xilan, don't thank me. If you want to thank someone, thank your master, Master Lou. If it weren't for her, I'm afraid that the cave girl would have succeeded."
Zhao Xilan nodded: "That's right! My master treats me like her own daughter. I will definitely respect her well in the future."
At this point, Zhao Xilan said, "Brother Tianyi, I think you all know why I came to Miaojiang, right?"
I nodded: "I know, you are here to see your boyfriend Huang Bin. Am I right?"
Zhao Xilan's face flushed a little, and she said, "Yes, I got it from Wu Boyong, the Calculator. He told me that Huang Bin came to Longtan Town, Wenshan City to find the Tongshen Grass for me, so I came to find him. We haven't seen each other for several years, and I'm worried about him."
"So, brother Tianyi, I hope you can help me find Huang Bin. I want to know if he is still alive. Also, I want to find out why he has been missing for so many years."
After thinking for a while, I asked Zhao Xilan, "But Sister Xilan, your body has not fully recovered yet.
Wait a few days, and when your health gets better, we will go to Soul Burial Valley together."
Zhao Xilan said anxiously, "No more waiting, Brother Tianyi. I'm very nervous. I always feel like something has happened to Huang Bin. I even dreamed about Huang Bin last night, so I want to find him as soon as possible."
When she said this, tears appeared in Zhao Xilan's eyes.
I hate to see women cry. After thinking for a while, I said, "Well, since you want to find him so badly, let's go to Soul Burial Valley today and try to find Huang Bin as soon as possible."
Zhao Xilan listened to what I said, and a little joy appeared on her face. She said, "Okay, okay, that's settled. I said your brother Tianyi is the one who supports his sister the most! It's worth it that I helped you so much in the beginning."
I smiled and said nothing.
At this time, Fatty Li came in from outside. Seeing Zhao Xilan talking to me, Fatty Li asked with a smile, "What are you talking about? You look very happy."
Zhao Xilan smiled and said to Fatty Li, "Brother Li, Tianyi has agreed to help me find Huang Bin. I can finally see my boyfriend."
After hearing this, Fatty Li was stunned for a moment, then a smile appeared on his face and he said, "If that's the case, then that's a great relationship."
But I noticed that there was a hint of loss in Fatty Li's eyes for a moment.
In fact, I know that Fatty Li likes Zhao Xilan. On the way to the ghost market, Fatty Li got angry with me because he was a little close to me, Zhao Xilan.
Although Fatty Li is in his thirties and Zhao Xilan is in her twenties, "love" sometimes has no age limit.
For example, Fatty Li fell in love with Zhao Xilan. Zhao Xilan might know that Fatty Li liked her, but the person she really liked was Huang Bin. Otherwise, Zhao Xilan would not have gone through so much trouble to come to Miaojiang to find Huang Bin.
We didn't say a few words before Zhao Xilan was called over by Lou Xiaoman who was resting outside.
Fatty Li looked at me and asked, "Brother Tianyi, are you sure you agree to take Zhao Xilan with you to find Huang Bin? Xilan is still weak, so I think it's better not to let her go. And I also asked Granny Tianhua about the Soul Burial Valley yesterday."
"Granny Smallpox told me that the Soul Burial Valley is a very dangerous place. It is not only a huge corpse-raising ground, but it is also said to be inhabited by many strange humans. If we go there rashly, we may encounter danger."
I know Fatty Li is thinking about Zhao Xilan.
I thought about it and said, "Brother Li, I have already promised Zhao Xilan about this matter. And I can see that she really wants to find her boyfriend Huang Bin. Just now she asked me to go to Soul Burial Valley with her. I know that even if we don't go, she will probably go alone."
"So, for her safety, I decided to go to Soul Burial Valley with her."
After hearing what I said, Fatty Li's face turned ugly.
But he didn't say much, just nodded and said: "In that case, I want to go too."
I said, "That's no problem. One more person means more strength. I believe we should be able to find the person quickly."
The morning passed quickly.
After lunch, our group said goodbye to Grandma Tianhua.
When she left, Granny Tianhua brought Granny Chimu and her nephew Ge Liang with her. Now Granny Chimu and Ge Liang no longer raise poisonous insects, but have become ordinary Miao people, temporarily living in Granny Tianhua's house.
Mother-in-law is here.
I know that it was because Granny Tianhua was afraid that Granny Chimu would give in that she left Granny Chimu and Ge Liang here.
Knowing that we were leaving, many Miao people, led by Wu Yongchang, came to see us off.
Before leaving, I asked Granny Tianhua some things about the Soul Burial Valley.
Just like what Fatty Li told me, Granny Smallpox told me that Soul Burial Valley is indeed a dangerous place. Moreover, it is always filled with fog and is very eerie and sneaky.
Even though I knew it was dangerous there, I still decided to go there once. After all, I had already promised Zhao Xilan. I couldn't just watch Zhao Xilan go there alone.
After drinking the practice wine, we left the Miao village.
However, we did not rush to the Soul Burial Valley, but first rushed to the Longtan Inn in Longtan Town.
Because the Soul Burial Valley is to the north of Longtan Town. In addition, Master Lou's knife wound has not yet healed, so we decided to send Master Lou to Longtan Inn first, and then we will rush to the Soul Burial Valley.
The mountain road was difficult to walk on, but with the guidance of the Miao girl Qiu Shui, we quickly found the right path.
What I didn’t expect was that after helping us find the path, Qiu Shui came to me shyly.
She put a sachet of sachet in my hand.
"Miss Qiu Shui, what are you doing...?" I asked in confusion.
Miao girl Qiu Shui blushed and said shyly, "It's nothing, Brother Tianyi, this is a sachet, used to repel insects. As long as you carry this sachet, those poisonous insects, snakes and ants will not dare to approach you. This is a gift from me to you."
"Oh! I see!"
I nodded and was about to say thank you.
But Qiu Shui had already turned around and ran towards the back.
"Goodbye, everyone!"
When we were quite far away, Qiu Shui turned around and waved at us.
Everyone on our side also waved goodbye to Qiu Shui.
Afterwards, we followed the mountain road to Longtan Town.
Not long after I turned around, my cheap master Zhang Chu came close to me.
Looking at the sachet in my hand, Zhang Chu said with a smile: "My disciple, you are really lucky. Girls like you wherever you go."
I didn't understand what he meant, so I asked Zhang Chu in confusion: "Master, what do you mean?"
Zhang Chu came a little closer to me and whispered to me, "You may not know that in the Miao area, sending sachets is a way of expressing love. Think about it, why didn't Miss Qiushui send us sachets, but sent you one instead?"
After hearing what Zhang Chu said, I suddenly understood. Yes, it is true.
I also thought about Qiu Shui's blushing face just now. I thought to myself, could it be that Miao girl Qiu Shui really likes me
I don't know why, but the charming scene of that night appeared in front of my eyes again - Qiu Shui slowly walked into the pond, and then began to take off her Miao clothing, revealing her exquisite and graceful body.
Thinking of this, my face turned red for no reason and my heart beat faster.
Seeing that I blushed, Zhang Chu smiled and said, "Hey, Tianyi, you are not also in love with that Qiushui girl, are you?"
I hurriedly said, "No, it's not!"
Zhang Chu shrugged and continued, "Whether it is or not, you know it best in your heart."
In fact, I don’t know whether I like the Miao girl Qiu Shui or not.
But, I have a girlfriend after all.
I shook my head to get rid of the distracting thoughts in my head. I said to myself, don’t look at anything inappropriate, don’t say anything inappropriate!!
