Jiang Qinian hesitated for a while, and then asked this question.
Hearing this, Grandma Gu shook her head.
"No, even though I have some cultivation, I also know that this little bit of Taoism is nothing.
Our Yanhuang land is vast and rich in resources, and capable people are born in large numbers. If I think that a real person can run amok in the middle stage, it would be too much to look at the sky from the bottom of a well.
Therefore, I have always been honest and never dared to cause trouble.
I'm not afraid of you making fun of me if I tell you this. Except for the time when I helped Xiao Man get rid of ghost energy, I had never used my cultivation before here, and I didn't even dare to make profit from it.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to support my family by selling noodles.
Big trees attract the wind. This world is far scarier than I imagined. I have been cautious all my life, but in my later years I even attracted people with ulterior motives to deal with Xiaoman.
If you don’t know how to restrain yourself, you don’t know what will happen.”
Hearing this, Jiang Qinian nodded thoughtfully.
From this point of view, this is all Aunt Gu knows. As for why there are so many wandering souls around Gu Xiaoman's house, it probably happened after Aunt Gu left.
It should be that the person behind the scenes re-prepared the means to deal with Gu Xiaoman after discovering that Gu Xiaoman was not dead.
No matter what, just let Wu Ruonan search for the ghost cultivator's soul when he gets back, and everything will be known by then.
Therefore, he signaled Ying Chumei and others with his eyes.
Don't talk to Grandma Gu about this kind of thing. Before she's dying, it's better to let her leave peacefully.
After making up his mind, Jiang Qinian also said to Grandma Gu:
"Grandma, do you have any unfulfilled wishes?
If there are any, please tell us a few, and we will do our best.”
Now, this matter has finally reached its final stage.
If Grandma Gu has any last wishes, they will try their best to fulfill them. After all, this is a special event, so if this step is omitted, something strange may happen.
After finishing speaking, Grandma Gu shook her head slightly.
"Last wish?
Now, I have looked away from everything in this world, and the only one I can't worry about is Xiaoman.
Are you from the future?
I heard what you said to Xiaoman at the door just now. I originally heard my master say that the Meteorological Bureau has the ability to travel through time and space, but now it is an eye-opener.
If you have enough time, could you tell me how Xiaoman is doing now?"
Hearing this, Jiang Qinian and others were slightly stunned.
"Don't you want to meet Miss Gu now?
We can still do this now, so if you are willing, we can take you there temporarily, but we can't stay for too long."
What everyone didn't expect was that after hearing such words, Grandma Gu shook her head slightly.
"No.
Why disturb her current life?
I just want to hear how she is doing now. I am satisfied if I can save this child's life, and I don't dare to ask for too much."
"good."
Jiang Qinian said something, and then continued:
"Miss Gu... actually doesn't live a particularly happy life.
I originally wanted to report the good news but not the bad news, but as you know, the luck and wealth are removed, so it is difficult for her to rise to the top.
But don't worry, since we have captured the person who did this, we can naturally find out who was behind it. How he moved there, I will tell him how to move it back.
Although this is almost impossible for ordinary practitioners, it is not a trouble for me.
Miss Gu is still in school, and her grades have always been very good. She will be at the age to take the college entrance exam next year, so she will definitely get good grades.
Not only that, she also inherited your skill of making noodles in her spare time.
To maintain daily living expenses, and when we went to see her, she was already selling goods to a supermarket.
This way, you will make more money, you won’t have to worry about sales, and you won’t have to work so hard to sell your goods everywhere.
However, due to her poor fortune, Miss Gu doesn't earn much, but she can still be self-sufficient. At least she doesn't have to worry about food and drink.
Miss Gu is now a big girl, she has a beautiful smile and a kind heart, but she misses you very much, and... she has been waiting for you to come back.
Others asked her to pay tribute to you, but she refused.
She thinks you just left, and maybe when she wakes up one morning, she will see you reappearing next to her."
"Oh, this child..."
Grandma Gu gave a bitter smile.
"When you guys go back, tell Xiaoman what happened."
"You mean..."
"She always has the right to know the truth.
I don’t want her to live in fantasy all her life. She must always move forward to welcome a new life, even if this life does not involve me..."
Grandma Gu muttered softly, as if she was saying her final goodbyes.
Of course she wants to watch Gu Xiaoman grow up, get married and have children.
But God doesn't fulfill people's wishes.
But as long as Gu Xiaoman can live peacefully and happily, she will be content...
"Mr. Jiang, if I guessed correctly, is someone planning to attack Xiaoman?"
Suddenly, Jiang Qinian froze there, and then he let out a wry smile.
"Sure enough, I can't hide anything from you."
"Since you guys came here six years later, I think something must have happened. Otherwise, what else would be worth your retrograde journey?"
"To be honest, someone is indeed attacking Miss Gu now.
But don't worry, it's not a big problem.
When we went there, various wandering spirits gathered around Miss Gu's house. At first we didn't know what was going on, but now that we know it was caused by the Five Ghost Transport Technique, I think it should be something like the Yin Gathering Formation.
Something."
At this moment, Ying Chumei also took over the conversation:
"The mastermind behind the scenes was probably the one who saw that Miss Gu was fine, so he had a weird idea and wanted to consume Miss Gu's anger by gathering wandering souls, and then achieve the goal of moving longevity.
However, due to your soul secret method, they just wander around the yard and have no intention of getting closer."
At first, they really thought that something had been planted in the yard, so the wandering souls did not enter it, but were waiting for an opportunity.
But after seeing the ghost cultivator, several people's thoughts were changed.
To be honest, it is difficult for a ghost cultivator in the early stage of demigods to find a treasure that can hide from their perception.
Coupled with the secret method of moving the five ghosts and planting souls that Grandma Gu said, the sight of wandering souls gathering has a reasonable explanation.
As for Gu Xiaoman's experience with the Five Ghost Transport Technique... It has been five or six years since then. Even if you bring someone from the divine realm over, he may not be able to see the problem, let alone them?
"Grandma, don't worry, I have left a friend there to guard you. His cultivation is almost at the peak of a real person, and he also has special means.
Therefore, Miss Gu’s safety can definitely be guaranteed.”
After hearing what Jiang Qinian said, Ying Chumei had already expected it, but Gu Linghao and Chen Yueliang looked over curiously.
They knew that Wu Ruonan did not follow him, but they didn't know what he was going to do. In addition, Jiang Qinian had no intention of telling them, so they put it aside for the time being.
Now it seems that Captain Jiang must have expected it and kept Wu Ruonan there to prevent the female gangster from causing trouble.
Seeing how determined he was, Grandma Gu couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, then she raised her hands and said:
"Mr. Lao Jiang, I can't repay you for such a great kindness, so why don't I just give this secret soul technique to a few of you.
I don't have much time left, so there's no use holding it.
Putting it with Xiaoman would probably be something that people would miss, and she had no ability to defend herself, so it would only add to her worries.
With the capabilities of the Meteorological Bureau, they must be able to research something useful from this secret soul method.
I hope you won’t take it too seriously. The only thing I can bring out now is relatively valuable, so..."
"You are worrying too much."
Grandma Gu offered her hand, and Jiang Qinian naturally returned the gesture.
"I came here with no intention of repaying anything in return. Fortunately, I have the help of these friends, otherwise I would never be able to find out the truth with my own strength.
As for this secret soul method... I accepted it shamelessly. It is of great research value to the current Meteorological Bureau, so..."
"It doesn't matter, it's just a small thank you gift, it's not worth mentioning."
Seeing that most of the things had been resolved, Jiang Qinian stood up and said to Grandma Gu:
"Grandma, since this matter is over, we won't bother you too much.
You... take care of yourself!"
He originally wanted to say goodbye by fate.
But if nothing else happens, there will be no possibility for these people to meet again in this life.
Once we leave here, we will be separated forever.
Grandma Gu nodded without saying much.
Then, several people turned around and walked out.
After leaving the courtyard, Jiang Qinian told several people:
"Just go back first. Since the early warning device has issued an early warning this time, there should be unknown events happening at our time point.
I arranged for Ruonan to stay there in advance. With her current strength, she should be able to cope with the current situation. Even if things go wrong, she can escape with Gu Xiaoman.
But it’s hard to tell about this unknown event, so you go back and check the situation first. If there is any danger, don’t act rashly. I’ll talk about everything after I get back.”
Hearing this, Ying Chumei didn't say much.
She walked forward, gently helped Jiang Qinian straighten his collar, and then said softly:
"You too, please be safe and don't show off if anything happens."
"good."
After saying that, Ying Chumei and others blew out their lanterns and disappeared one after another.
Jiang Qinian's figure flashed and instantly appeared on the wall of Gu Xiaoman's house.
At this time, Grandma Gu was already sitting next to Gu Xiaoman. She looked at Gu Xiaoman tenderly. The silver thread on her forehead was particularly dazzling under the light, and the shadow of her soul was also particularly bright, as if it would disappear in the next second.
.
She covered him with the quilt gently, and then touched Gu Xiaoman's face tremblingly, as if she was feeling the temperature of the world.
In this last moment, Jiang Qinian did not choose to disturb.
He just sat cross-legged on the wall, took out the secret method of cultivating souls, and looked at it carefully under the moonlight...
