Chapter 149: Encounter

"Since the Immortal Lord and others have said so, let's go back. Xiaomo, please put away the statue of the Bronze Bird Immortal Lord."

"Yes." Zhong Mo nodded, put the ginkgo leaves into the sky star, so that the sky star could once again have the ability to communicate with the cave sky, and then put the statue into the cave sky through the space channel created by the sky star.

At the moment when the bronze bird statue entered the cave, a stream of light that Ning Guang and Ke Qing didn't notice entered Zhong Mo's forehead. The seal in Zhong Mo's body lit up, and then it was extinguished after realizing that the stream of light was harmless to Zhong Mo.

.

In Zhong Mo's consciousness, the last images of Ginkgo and Bronze Bird left in the statue materialized.

"Sister Ginkgo!"

But the image didn't change in any way because of Zhong Mo's cry, it just continued to perform on its own.

"Xiao Mo, when you see this video, Tongque and I should have left forever. I am very grateful for everything you have done for me and Tongque, and as that person's child, you must also

You don’t need anything from me and Tongque.

But this [Burning Spirit] is a technique that Tongque and I have spent our entire lives creating. It can burn the user's soul to gain powerful power. The purer and tougher the soul, the more powerful the power gained.

But just like firewood leaves only ashes after burning, nothingness remains after the soul burns. Using [Burning Spirit] will inevitably cause irreversible damage to your soul. Although we give [Burning Spirit] to you, we

I hope you never need it."

Ke Qing and Ning Guang outside knew nothing about what happened deep in Zhong Mo's soul, but Ke Qing saw Zhong Mo retracting the stars and then falling directly to the ground.

"Xiao Mo!"

She quickly ran over and reached out to catch Zhong Mo, held her in her arms, and checked Zhong Mo's physical condition.

"Are you okay?" Ningguang walked over nervously. Zhong Mo had a close relationship with the immortals anyway, but he couldn't let anything happen around them. Besides, Ningguang himself liked this little guy quite a lot.

Keqing breathed a sigh of relief and said to Ningguang with a mixture of laughter and tears: "It's okay, the little guy just fell asleep. He must be tired. This child fell asleep as soon as he said he was asleep."

Ke Qing gently carried Zhong Mo on her back and looked at Ning Guang: "Let's go."

The three of them left the Tongque Temple and met the old woman again on their way back.

"Children? Are you okay? Did those bad guys do anything to you?"

With Ke Qing carrying Zhong Mo on her back, Ning Guang took the initiative to talk to him.

"It's okay, mother-in-law, we have driven away those people."

The old woman breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, that's good. It's good that you are fine, and they don't disturb the immortal's purity. Alas, it's a pity that even I, an old woman, can't rebuild this temple for the immortal."

The old woman saw Zhong Mo on Ke Qing's back and asked, "This child?"

"It's okay, mother-in-law. The little guy just fell asleep. The kid is a snoozer."

The old woman said: "My home is nearby. If you don't mind, why don't you go to my home and have a rest? There are not many people around here."

Ning Guang thought for a while and realized that he really needed a place to rest for a while, so he agreed to the old lady's invitation.

A few people walked along the mountain road and soon came to a small mountain village. But if they looked carefully, they could see that most of the houses were dilapidated and no one lived in them. Even from the rotten doors and windows, they could see that they were full of knots.

Spider silk.

"Logically speaking, even if young people pursue opportunities and gradually leave their hometown, they will not decline so quickly. Why is the vitality here so thin?"

Ning Guang looked at the surrounding environment and felt a little confused. The dilapidation of this place did not seem to be caused by people gradually moving away. Instead, it seemed like there was a collective migration.

The old woman sighed: "Little girl, your eyes are really poisonous. Alas, it's all bad luck."

"Does mother-in-law know anything? Is it possible for me to tell you?"

"It's all old news... Let's talk about it, let's start with a pair of hard-luck mandarin ducks. This family is not local, but moved from other places, but because they know a lot and are well-educated,

I helped the villagers a lot, so I was accepted and recognized by the locals and took root here."

"Unfortunately, something unexpected happened, and the girl contracted some unknown disease. She left her young children and her husband behind and passed away."

"Her husband missed his wife so much that he didn't know where he found the evil magic. He sacrificed his little daughter to get his wife back. As a result, the wife was not returned and the child was gone. From then on, this

The family is ruined."

"The villagers were also afraid of harming themselves, so they moved away one after another. Only a few old people like us are still here."

After listening to the old woman's words, Ningguang pondered for a while: "I seem to have seen it in the previous file, but I didn't expect it to be here."

"So, that person shouldn't be from your village, right? Mother-in-law?"

The old woman looked in the direction pointed by Ningguang and saw a girl with a cold temperament standing at the entrance of the village, looking at a dilapidated house in the village.

(My timeline is before the plot, Xiao Jiang’s parents are not dead, Wan Ye has just boarded the ship, and the Fools have just arrived in Liyue.)

The girl wore a strange feather-like hair accessory on her head, with a strange red rope at the end of her hair. Her eyes were very cold, as if her emotions had been suppressed.

Feeling the glare, the girl looked back at a few people, and then stared at Ke Qing for a while, or rather at Zhong Mo behind Ke Qing.

"What's wrong? Ningguang, what's the problem?"

Keqing asked.

"It's just that there is a sense of familiarity."

From the girl's body, Ningguang had the illusion of looking at Gan Yu for some reason.

Ning Guang was about to go up and talk to her, but the girl turned around and left, and soon she was out of sight of several people.

"That child is not from here. I have never seen him before. Besides, there should be no one of his age like him in our village."

The old woman thought for a while and said.

"Really?" Ning Guang looked at the house the girl was looking at just now, "Mother-in-law, is there anything special about the house over there?"

"Over there? That's the house of that poor family. No one has dared to approach it for so many years, so it's dilapidated like this. There are often small animals coming in and out of it."

"Is this so? It's okay, mother-in-law, let's go."

The old woman led several people back home and said to Keqing: "Put the child on the bed to sleep. The small place is quite crowded. I hope you don't mind."

Ke Qing put Zhong Mo on the bed and watched her mother-in-law go to pack things, so she took the initiative to follow her.

"Mother-in-law, let me help you. I still know a little bit about cooking."
