What Hai Mingdong said makes sense.
But for me, I felt a little confused.
On the one hand, we need to find the demon Mosala and ask him to help Sun Xiaoli remove the blood curse on his body.
Although the blood curse placed on Sun Xiaoli lasts for one year, it still needs to be lifted by Mosuo Luo himself.
On the other hand, I also have to look for the fragments of the divine map. Now, looking for the fragments of the divine map is not only for myself, but also to eradicate Masala to prevent it from harming the world.
Another thing is that Jiang Jiuzhen’s life or death is unknown, and I need to find him.
All these things combined made my scalp explode.
"Master, why are you silent? Do you think it's hard to find all the fragments of the divine map?"
Hai Mingdong asked me.
I shook my head and said with a bitter face, "No. It's because there are too many things in front of me. I feel a little overwhelmed as to where to start."
Tubagen stood aside and said seriously: "Master, it is more important to find the fragments of the divine map. This is the key to you. Since you have confirmed that the demon Mosala is still alive, we can't let it go. As long as we find the fragments of the divine map and get the Haotian Tower from it, there is a great possibility that the demon Mosala can be eliminated."
After that, Tubagen and Haimingdong said a lot of things. Most of them were trying to persuade me to find the fragments of the sacred map as soon as possible.
However, I still decided to look for Jiang Jiuzhen first.
There is a reason for going to find Jiang Jiuzhen.
On the one hand, I had already promised Sun Xiaoli to help her find her grandfather Jiang Jiuzhen.
On the other hand, Jiang Jiuzhen and Wang Jiuyang are brothers. If I find Jiang Jiuzhen, I might be able to find Wang Jiuyang.
If Wang Jiuyang finds it, he will also be able to get the piece of the divine map on him.
By finding all three pieces of the divine map fragments, you will be able to sense the locations of the remaining pieces of the divine map fragments.
Seeing how determined I was, Tubagen and Haimingdong both agreed.
Then they both returned their respective fragments of the divine map.
In the afternoon, Sun Xiaoli was resting in his side-lying bed and did not come out.
I leaned on the sofa, smoking and thinking about what had happened.
Alas, I found that my life became unusual because I became a ghost-catching Taoist priest.
At dusk, Sun Xiaoli walked out from her side bedroom.
She covered her mouth with one hand and yawned, and judging from her face, she might not have gotten enough rest.
There were some dark bags under her eyes.
"Brother Tianyi, why didn't you get some sleep?"
I shook my head and said, "No! I couldn't sleep. You know I've been unconscious for two days."
Sun Xiaoli walked to the sofa and sat down next to me.
She put one hand around my arm and rested her head on my shoulder.
I feel really happy when she leans on me like this.
Seeing that I didn't say anything, Sun Xiaoli asked me weakly, "Brother Tianyi, why don't you say anything? Is it because my matter is difficult for you to handle?"
I quickly denied it: "Don't say that. Since these things have already happened and become facts, we have no choice but to face them bravely."
At this point, I told Sun Xiaoli my decision: "Xiaoli, after thinking about it, I decided to help you find your grandfather first. If your grandfather is still alive, maybe he can help us."
"If we just try our best to find that Mosuo Luo, it will be very difficult."
"Also, if the demon leader of the Sky Demon Clan, Mosuluo, is really alive, even if we find him, there is no guarantee that he will not harm us. After all, we are weak in the eyes of the Sky Demon Clan. So, everything has to be carefully considered."
"You also know about the fragments of the divine map. I'm thinking about starting with the fragments. But if we want to find all the fragments of the divine map, we may need your grandfather's help. So, we should go find your grandfather first. What do you think?"
Sun Xiaoli didn't care about what I said.
She leaned her head towards me and said gently, "No matter what, Brother Tianyi, as long as I am with you,
I will listen to you. "
"Okay. It's settled then. Let's go!"
When Sun Xiaoli heard me say "Let's go!", she was a little surprised.
She sat up straight, squinted her eyes, and asked me, "Where are you going?"
I smiled mysteriously and said, "Let's go first, and you'll know when we get there."
My mysterious look stunned Sun Xiaoli.
She hesitated for a moment, then asked me with a smile: "Brother Tianyi, you don't want to invite us to go out to watch a movie and eat Western food, do you?"
I shrugged my shoulders, teased deliberately, and said, "Hey, you think too much. This is not a Western meal. Come on, follow me, and you will know."
Seeing that I didn't say anything, Sun Xiaoli pouted, shook my arm, and said in a greasy tone: "Brother Tianyi, where are you taking me to do?"
"You have to tell me. I am your girlfriend now. If there is anything, you can't hide it from me, otherwise I won't agree."
Sun Xiaoli's sweet voice is so rich in sugar that it almost made me sick to death.
But, I enjoyed it.
I thought about it for a moment before I said, "What I mean is, to meet your father, Sun Yaowen, again."
"After all, you are father and daughter. Besides, he might know the whereabouts of your grandfather. You know, he was the one who rented your grandfather's apartment to me."
Who knew that after hearing what I said, Sun Xiaoli's face changed immediately.
Her expression became ugly, unnatural, and uneasy.
I know that she still has some grudge against her father, Sun Yaowen.
The last time we went there, Sun Yaowen didn't leave any good impression on Sun Xiaoli. In fact, the two of us didn't even get in the door.
I reached out my hand and placed it on the back of Sun Xiaoli's hand. I gently held it and comforted her, saying, "Xiaoli, many things are inevitable. Since you are Sun Yaowen's daughter, you still have to go see your father. Even if it's not for your grandfather, you should go for yourself."
"Don't you want to improve the relationship between you and your daughter?"
Sun Xiaoli started crying because of what I said, and her nose was sniffling.
She said, "Brother Tianyi, I really want to improve my relationship with my dad, but he always acts like he's a thousand miles away from me... He never gives me a chance to communicate."
"In fact, I know that if my mother had not been killed by a ghost, perhaps our family would be the happiest."
"My dad will still work diligently, and will still care about me, love me, and take care of me just like when I was a child... But now he... Woohoo, Brother Tianyi, I don't want to mention him."
I frowned slightly and advised, "Xiao Li, your father has been brooding over the fact that your grandfather failed to save your mother from the ghost, but you don't worry about it because you know that your grandfather had tried his best."
"So, in your heart, you have already forgiven your grandfather, otherwise you wouldn't have returned to this apartment to find him."
"Since you can forgive your grandfather, why can't you forgive my father? They are all your relatives. Yes, your father's attitude towards you is not good, but it is because he has a knot in his heart. In my opinion, the only person who can resolve this knot is you."
Sun Xiaoli listened to me quietly, tears streaming down her eyes.
After a while, she stared at me, bit her lips lightly, and said, "Okay, then I'll go see my dad again."
When I saw Sun Xiaoli agreed, a knowing smile appeared on my face.
I reached out and scratched Sun Xiaoli's nose with my fingers, and said with a smile, "That's right, this is the lively, cheerful, and considerate Sun Xiaoli in my mind."
Sun Xiaoli burst into laughter at my actions and words. She stretched out her pink fist and punched my arm, angrily saying, "Brother Tianyi, you are so bad!"
I pretended to dodge and yelled, "Ouch! It hurts! ... How can a wife treat her husband like this!"
When Sun Xiaoli heard what I said, her face instantly turned red, like a red peach.
After flirting for a while, I looked at the sky outside and said, "Let's go. We should leave now. It's getting dark soon, so let's try to go early and come back early."
Sun Xiaoli nodded, stood up and walked to the bathroom. Her face was already red from crying.
Old South City Apartments, 11th floor, Room 1102.
I was holding a bag of fruit in my left hand and holding Sun Xiaoli in my right hand.
Sun Xiaoli was very close to me, with her right hand tightly around my elbow.
This scene is like a newlywed wife taking her husband back to her parents' home.
However, Sun Xiaoli's face showed uneasiness and worry.
I deliberately grasped her hand tightly and said, "It's okay, I'm here. Wait, don't talk back to your dad, we'll just act according to circumstances."
Sun Xiaoli nodded to show her agreement.
Then I knocked on Sun Yaowen's door.
“Boom boom boom!”
After a few knocks, the door of Room 1102 opened with a creak.
A man stood at the door, with a dark face, and shouted with his spear in hand, "Who are you looking for?"
But when he saw Sun Xiaoli and me clearly, the man was stunned for a moment.
That person was Sun Yaowen, his face looked ugly and pale, his hair was messy, as if he hadn't taken care of it for a long time.
"Why are you here? ... ... Why are you here again!"
With an unhappy mutter, Sun Yaowen was about to close the door in disgust.
He saw Sun Xiaoli, but his eyes stayed on Sun Xiaoli for a moment and then looked away.
There was more surprise in his eyes.
I quickly reached out and held the door.
This prevented the door from being closed.
"Uncle landlord, please don't close the door. We are here to see you." I said quickly with a smile.
"Look at me? ... ... Humph, I can't bear it. You better leave quickly. Don't disturb my rest."
Having said that, Sun Yaowen was about to close the door again.
I was quick-eyed and quick-handed, and quickly took a step forward.
I put my foot in the crack of the door so that he couldn't close it.
However, he was so strong that my thighs hurt.
When he saw me putting my legs into the crack of the door, Sun Yaowen suddenly became angry.
He yelled, "Assholes, what on earth do you want to do? I've already told you that I'm taking a break. Do you want to break into my house? I don't know you. Get out of here."
I still had a smile on my face, trying to mediate, and said, "Uncle landlord, what are you talking about? We are not here to disturb your rest. Xiaoli missed her dad, so I came with her to see you."
Having said that, I quickly reached out and pulled Sun Xiaoli over from the side and pulled her in front of the crack in the door.
Sun Xiaoli lowered her head and didn't look at her father Sun Yaowen.
The corners of Sun Yaowen's mouth twitched as if he had a stroke, and he said in a deep voice: "Let's go, I don't want to see anyone. You guys leave here quickly."
I nudged Sun Xiaoli's back with my shoulder again, motioning for her to say something.
Sun Xiaoli looked at me, and when she saw me winking at her, she turned to Sun Yaowen and said, "Dad, I'm here to see you!"
Sun Yaowen was ordering everyone to leave, but Sun Xiaoli's call of "Dad" was really effective and stunned him.
Sun Yaowen stopped his angry voice and fixed his eyes on Sun Xiaoli.
He just stared at Sun Xiaoli. Sun Xiaoli also stared at him.
The two looked at each other for about half a minute, and Sun Yaowen's mouth twitched, and then he calmed down a little. But soon, his face became cold again.
He shouted, "Go, all of you! I have no relatives, and no daughter... All of you, go."
As he said that, Sun Yaowen took a step forward and tried to push my thigh out from the crack of the door.
Seeing Sun Yaowen's reaction so big, I gritted my teeth and started the acupoint tapping method with my right hand, tapping directly on his fixed point.
All of a sudden, his body was fixed there, unable to move.
