Chapter 420: The Dying Old Man

Since the Soul Searching Technique was broken and the burning rhinoceros was extinguished, I had no choice but to return to Yuanqi Pavilion to light incense and recite the technique again.

Fortunately, although I didn't collect much of Zhu Lei's hair, I was careful to only use a small section, and the rest can be used at least three times.

Returning to Yuanqi Pavilion angrily, Dongzi was sitting in front of the newly bought laptop playing games. When he saw me coming back, he stood up and said, "Hey, Hu Ling, why are you back so soon?"

"Hurry up to the parking lot, drive out the car, and go out with me." I didn't answer Dongzi's words. I was rummaging in my backpack for a magical weapon to deal with the person who broke my soul-searching technique, and said to Dongzi.

Dongzi responded, closed the computer and ran out quickly.

"Hu Ling, what are you looking for?"

Before I could think of a solution, Dongzi had already returned and parked the car on the curb outside Yuanqi Pavilion.

I told Dongzi as simply as possible about Zhu Lei's soul being taken away and the Soul Searching Technique being broken.

"So, what we have to do now is to fight with another psychic to get Zhu Lei's soul back?" Dongzi supported her chin with her hand and watched my movements.

"Yeah!" I nodded as I picked up the Sanqing Bell that Hu Santai gave me, looked at it, and put it back again. This didn't seem very practical.

"So what are you looking for now?" Dongzi asked me again.

"I have to find a magic weapon that can effectively prevent the opponent from destroying Shengxi again. As long as Shengxi remains alive, we can follow the guidance of the Soul Searching Technique to find the location of Zhu Lei's soul." I thought for a while and said.

"So you have to find something to cover this copper incense burner, so that the other party can't kill the rhinoceros." Dongzi looked at me seriously and said.

"I know too, but it's a pity that I don't have anything suitable at hand..." I suddenly paused and thought of a way.#@$&

If there is no suitable magic weapon, I can use my own aura to form a barrier to protect the incense burner.

Although I am currently unable to create an illusory barrier like Xiao Han, it is not a problem to form an ordinary barrier.

Thinking of this, I took out a new piece of raw rhinoceros, lit it, and carefully put another half of Zhu Lei's hair into it.

As the white smoke curled up again, converging into a thin line of white smoke and drifting towards the door, the wind chime hanging on the door suddenly shook violently and sounded.

I turned around and looked at the door, but no one came in.%&(&

Hehe, it seems that Daoxing is quite high, and they have already reached my door.

The other party should have used the method of out-of-body spiritual consciousness. The chalcedony wind chime was not a mortal thing, and I don’t know whether the other party was afraid or for some other reason and did not come in.

The chalcedony wind chime rang a few times and then slowly stopped. The raw rhinoceros burning in the incense burner was not damaged or affected in any way.

I held the incense burner in my hands again, and spiritual energy overflowed from my palms, forming a small circular barrier around the incense burner.

"Let's go!" I called out to Dongzi, "The car will drive in whatever direction the smoke line drifts!"

Dongzi responded, locked the door of Yuanqi Pavilion behind me, opened the passenger door for me, and after I was seated, he quickly jumped into the cab and started the car.

The white smoke was not disturbed by the barrier and slowly drifted towards the north.

On the way, I felt several times that the barrier was being impacted by an inexplicable force, and I tried to destroy it. But fortunately, because I had the inner elixir given to me by Mrs. Hu Santai in my body, my energy was abundant, and I kept replenishing the power of the barrier.

The life inside has never been extinguished.

Our car slowly drove out of Yanjiang Street, entered the suburbs, and turned onto a dilapidated dirt road.

This is an undeveloped area with some abandoned old factories and dilapidated houses along the way.

The road was getting narrower and narrower, and cars could no longer get in. Dongzi parked the car on the side of the road, so we had to get out of the car and walk in the direction pointed by the white smoke.

Following the thin line of white smoke, we walked around a dilapidated residential area, with a few tiled houses scattered around, most of which had their doors locked. Apparently the owners had moved away.

Finally, the white smoke became faster and faster, drifting straight towards a low tiled house, but became thicker and thicker because the barrier was impenetrable.

It's been a long time since I felt the force that hit the barrier. It seems that the person has given up.

After I removed the barrier, the thick white smoke drifted directly in from the half-open door of the tile-roofed house.

The raw material in the incense burner slowly went out.

Finally arrived at the place.

I didn't follow in a hurry, but raised my eyes and looked around. I didn't expect that there was such an almost barren place on the outskirts of Jiangzhou.

There were almost no human sounds around, and the roadside was covered with weeds half as tall as a person. The tiled house in front of us only had two rooms. The door of the main house was half open, and the light was very dim, but we could faintly see the house.

There was an old man with silver hair sitting inside. There were a few red lights in front of the old man. The red light flashed slightly, a bit like firelight.

"Since we've found him, come in!" An old voice sounded in the room.

"Dongzi, you go back to the car and wait for me!" I turned around and said to Dongzi. I don't know the other party's details yet, and I don't want Dongzi to take risks with me.

"Can you be a little girl? I'd better accompany you!" Dongzi looked into the room hesitantly.

"It'll be okay. Just listen to me and get back to the car first!" I said.

"Okay, then I'll wait for you in the car first. If you don't come out within an hour, I'll call Luo Yue for emergency help." Dongzi said.

Oh, this kid actually knew how to let Luo Yue come to rescue him. I couldn't help but feel a little funny, but I felt very warm in my heart.

Thinking about it, Luo Yue should have secretly told him this.

"There's no need to look for Luo Yue, I have Bai Yao's spiritual consciousness in me, and Bai Yao will come if there is danger. Get back to the car quickly!" I said.

"Who is Bai Yao?" Dongzi asked me doubtfully.

Only then did I remember that Dongzi hadn’t met Bai Yao yet.

"You'll know later!" Now was not the time to talk, so I glanced into the room and said, "Go back as soon as I tell you to get back to the car. How can a grown man come up with so much gossip!"

"Okay, it'll be later!" Dongzi muttered and walked towards the way he came.

It wasn't until I couldn't see Dongzi anymore that I turned to look at the tile-roofed house and walked toward the door.

"I had an incense burner exactly like yours a long time ago, but I accidentally broke it when I was helping someone make a little devil!" I walked to the door, only to feel a sharp gaze fall on my hand, and the old voice came again.

Come.

I looked up and saw a black wicker chair in the middle of the room. An old man with disheveled silver hair was sitting on the wicker chair, stretching out a bony hand and pointing with a dry finger.

The copper incense burner in my hand, the dry fingers are full of fine wrinkles, the tawny nails are sharp and long, the tips are slightly hooked.

The old man was dressed in gray clothes, his face was covered with criss-crossing wrinkles and ravines, his cheeks were deeply sunken, his face was dull and black, and there was almost no yang energy in his body. It was obvious that his end was approaching.
