When I heard Coffin agreed, I nodded quickly and said, "Don't worry, I promised my fourth uncle and grandma that I would only go to Xiangxi to look for him for half a year at most. If I can't find him, I'll come back!"
With the help of Coffin Chen and Coffin Xiaohui, the possibility of finding Gu Xiwen is much greater!
"It's not easy to find someone in western Hunan, let alone a disciple of Mr. Hei who regards you as an enemy." Coffin seemed to see what I was thinking, and said in a deep voice: "That's why I don't want you to go.
Take this risk. Since you have to go, we have to make a good plan. If we can’t go out tomorrow, let’s take the day after tomorrow. You have a day of rest first and we can set off the day after tomorrow!”
"Can't it be earlier?" I asked anxiously, "How about we leave for the provincial capital tomorrow afternoon and take the evening train, and we should be able to arrive early the morning after tomorrow."
Coffin thought for a moment and nodded, "That's fine. We'll set off tomorrow afternoon. Hu Ling, Xiangxi is a very shady place. Many black gentlemen like to go there. You have to bring something for self-defense."
I nodded, and Coffin Chen said again: "You should rest first. We will come to find you at noon tomorrow. Xiaohui is still just a spirit. She is easily recognized by others when she takes the train with us. I have to go back and find her first."
A place where you can stay temporarily.”
"You mean, you are accompanying me as a "human"?" I asked in surprise, "Would it be bad for you? If you meet a profound Feng Shui master, will it cause you trouble?"
"Humph, with my way of doing things, few people will be my opponents, and there may be trouble. But if I don't follow you directly, you are a little girl, and if you encounter any danger on the road, I won't be able to come out and help you!" Coffin Chen
explain.
"Coffin Chen, Xiaohui, thank you!" I thanked you, and my heart was filled with emotion.
"Hu Ling, why are you always so polite to us? Why are you so polite when you always say thank you?" Coffin Xiaohui put her arms around my shoulders and smiled.
After Coffin Chen and Coffin Xiaohui left, I sat cross-legged on the bed and practiced Qi for two hours, but I still didn't feel sleepy. I kept thinking wildly, anticipating various situations after finding Gu Xiwen.
I have had this problem since I was a child. Whenever something unusual happens or is scheduled for the next day, I will always be unable to control my thoughts the night before, leading to insomnia.
Seeing the dark outside the window slowly turning into blue, I became more and more awake, so I got up and started preparing the things I wanted to bring.
Although the five-coin sword left to me by my fourth uncle and grandma is a very powerful magical weapon, I can't control the energy that I can gather now, so I won't bring it with me. As for the ancient bronze mirror, it should be useful.
Where I left it, I wrapped it in red cloth and stuffed it into my backpack.
I definitely had to bring the dragon scale dagger with me, so I still kept it in my close-fitting purse. Finally, I found the small black gold compass that Grandpa Bai Qi gave me and stuffed it into my backpack. Although there was a coffin
The couple helped me, but it's always a good idea to find someone to carry this thing with.
In addition to these, I also found burning paper, cut it into small pieces, drew talismans on it with cinnabar, sorted them into small rolls and put them in my backpack.
After finishing these things, I saw that it was still early, so I fried some dishes that my fourth uncle and grandma loved to eat before she was alive, and went up the mountain again.
When I got home from the mountain, it was almost noon. I ate and wrote. I had just finished cleaning up when I heard footsteps outside the door. When I walked out, I saw a young man.
He has a tall figure and thick hair. He is wearing a black Nike sports suit with white edges, a light gray casual coat, and a pair of white sneakers. From a distance, he looks energetic and full of energy.
I was about to ask him who he was looking for when the man raised his face and I was stunned for a moment.
It turned out to be a coffin with a face made of thousands of years of ice.
He had been wearing a black gown that was out of date with the times. Although his facial features were handsome, he always felt a bit more gloomy. Now that he is wearing a sports suit, there is no gloomy temperament at all. At a glance, he is a sunny and beautiful man.
I don’t know what method he used, but even the green energy belonging to the spiritual creature on his body was completely covered up. He was no different from ordinary people, and it was completely impossible to tell that he was a bird that had only attained enlightenment.
"Coffin Chen, I didn't expect you to look so handsome wearing our clothes!" I praised him.
Coffin Chen was a little embarrassed by my compliments, with a shy smile on his face. I looked at the backpack he was carrying and asked, "Where is Xiaohui? Where did you find a place for her to stay?"
"I'm here!" Coffin Xiaohui's voice came from Coffin Chen's chest.
I looked towards the source of the sound and saw a faint cyan light coming from the clothes on Coffin's chest. The light flashed slightly and transformed into a beautiful and agile woman standing in front of me.
The woman was wearing a snow-white knee-length dress, as elegant as a fairy, with smooth black hair spread to her waist. Her facial features were as delicate as a Barbie doll, and she was so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes away.
"Hu Ling, it's my first time to wear such a simple color. Does it look good?" Coffin Xiaohui turned around in front of me and asked me with a pair of watery almond eyes.
"So beautiful. If I were a man, I would definitely be Coffin Chen's love rival." I said with a smile.
"Then I choose you!" Coffin Xiaohui smiled and glanced sideways at Coffin Chen, then ran forward and took my arm.
"Ahem! Ahem!" Coffin coughed twice and said, "Hu Ling, let's get ready to go. Have you packed everything? Xiaohui, be obedient and you go back to Yuli first!"
"Everything is packed! We can set off now." I said, and then looked at Coffin with some curiosity, "What kind of jade? I also have a piece of jade on me. If I had known about it, a piece of jade would be enough. It would save you the trouble of looking for it and let the little one
Wisdom stays in my jade."
"It doesn't take much effort, it's just a piece of jasper." Coffin Chen said and took out a piece of green jadeite from his chest. It was crystal clear and translucent, like a pool of green water. Even if I didn't do any research on jade, I could still see this piece.
Jade is by no means ordinary.
The most important thing is that this piece of jade is full of aura, with a vague air of aura wrapped around the whole body. It is indeed very suitable for Coffin Xiaohui to nourish and hide her soul.
"It didn't take much effort. I went out all night and came back at dawn with a disgraced look." Qiao Xiaohui said with some distress, turning to look at me, "Hu Ling, what does your jade look like? If it suits me, I will
Just stay with you."
I took out my black jade from my chest.
I haven't paid attention to this piece of jade for many days. Ever since I put it on, it seems to be a part of my body. Unless I look at it specifically, I can hardly feel the existence of this piece of jade. When I took it out today, I found that it is warm and smooth.
There is a lot of water inside. If you look carefully, it seems that there is a pool of ink-colored water flowing slowly inside.
"I dare not go in with your piece of jade." Coffin Xiaohui took a step back, looked at Coffin Chen and said with a smile: "I still want to keep my little life to accompany my family Achen!"
Coffin Chen also raised his eyes to look at the black jade in my hand, and said solemnly: "Hu Ling, this piece of jade was brought out when you were born. It is not an ordinary thing. It is a symbol of your identity. Don't use it in the future."
If you take it out and show it to others easily, it will cause big trouble if someone sees it!"
"Yeah!" I nodded, "My mother did tell me that I brought it out of my mother's womb and asked me to wear it when I was eighteen years old. It didn't mention anything else, so I didn't take it too seriously, but I don't
Do you understand what you mean by identity?"
"Maybe your grandma doesn't know this! Hu Ling, just remember not to take it out easily. As for the rest, you will know it later!" Coffin obviously didn't want to say more.
I nodded and didn't ask any more questions. When I was with my fourth uncle and grandma, I understood that the secrets of heaven should not be revealed casually. Even if Coffin Chen had already half-stepped into the heavenly realm, if he refused to say more, he must have the same reason.
