A moment later, Qianqian walked in, and I suddenly remembered last night's encounter.
I asked Qianqian to tell me what happened after I passed out last night.
Qianqian said with a look of lingering fear, "We got back to the cabin very late last night. You passed out on the way.
It really scared me. Then Sister Nangong brought us back."
Hearing this, I asked Qianqian, "What about your body? Where did you put it after bringing it back? Was it properly arranged?"
Kaidō replied, "Mm, after we got back, Sister Nangong wrapped my body in yin energy.
It's in another room now, and then Martial Uncle said to leave it for now until you wake up."
After a while, Martial Uncle came back with a bag of herbs. I hurriedly asked, "Martial Uncle, is it true that Nangong Yiyi said Qianqian can be resurrected?
She said two treasures are needed to resurrect Qianqian: one is 'Soul Returning Grass' and the other is 'Shore Flower'."
"It's possible, but these two things are extremely rare.
As for 'Soul Returning Grass,' it's in the mortal world, so with some effort and time, it can be found.
But this 'Shore Flower'..."
At this point, Martial Uncle took a sharp breath, "Hiss~ This thing only exists in the underworld. Getting it is very tricky."
I asked Martial Uncle, "Have people obtained Shore Flower over the years?"
Martial Uncle said yes, someone obtained it a few years ago, but he didn't know where that person went afterward.
I thought to myself, it's good that someone obtained it; this proves it truly exists.
As long as it exists, there's a way to obtain it. I felt much more at ease after thinking it through.
Martial Uncle told me to lie still. Then Qianqian carefully removed the gauze from me.
She then took the herbs from Martial Uncle and bandaged me up.
Martial Uncle looked at me and said with concern, "If you want to resurrect her, I'm afraid you'll have to endure a lot of hardship."
I said it doesn't matter; as long as Qianqian can be resurrected, I'm not afraid of anything.
Then he asked me what my next plan was. I told Martial Uncle what my father had told me.
Martial Uncle thought for a moment and said, "Alright, then you go to Sichuan Province first. Listening to your father is never wrong.
Kid, from now on, you're on your own. Be careful with everything, and it's always right to think things through when encountering problems."
I nodded at Martial Uncle, then asked him what to do with Qianqian's body. I couldn't just carry it everywhere I went.
Martial Uncle thought for a moment and said to me, "Mm, that's also a problem. Let me think of a proper solution.
When you gather the two treasures, you can resurrect her."
"Little brother, don't worry, I've already thought of where to put her body."
As the voice faded, Nangong Yiyi walked in from the doorway.
"Where? Sister, do you have a good place?" I asked.
"Of course. I'll put her body where I was sealed before.
Because there's still a little yin energy there, it won't cause the body to rot.
And secondly, that formation is very powerful and won't allow anything else to enter."
"What happens if something enters?" I asked.
Nangong Yiyi frowned beautifully and replied, "If something enters, it will be troublesome. A 'Pure Yin Body' is a treasure for ghosts.
Any ghostly creature can enter the body and possess it for their own use."
Martial Uncle suddenly said, "Yes, that place is very good. The only thing to watch out for is people, but the old man has a way."
Nangong Yiyi looked at Martial Uncle and asked, "What way do you have?"
Martial Uncle smiled and said I would know when we get there. If I couldn't figure it out, I'd just have to shut up.
Just then, Nangong Yiyi suddenly looked at me and said, "Right, little brother, that bag of yours contains quite a lot of good stuff."
I didn't understand and asked what good stuff it was.
Nangong Yiyi asked me, "Do you know about a small black-brown wooden token?"
I said yes, but I didn't know what it was for. It's been in my bag, and I haven't studied it properly.
Nangong Yiyi then asked if I had heard of a yin gathering token.
I said no. Is it like the one I'm wearing around my neck, a wooden token that allows ghosts to enter?
Martial Uncle said from the side, a little uncertainly, "Could it be... your Grandfather's token?"
Nangong Yiyi's eyes lit up, and she said to Martial Uncle, "Oh, old man, you know about this? This is a very good thing.
If outside ghostly creatures knew about it, let alone a Ghost King, even a Ghost Emperor would fight tooth and nail for it."
I looked completely bewildered and said, "Stop speaking in riddles."
I'm a newbie, I don't understand anything, just tell me directly.
Nangong Yiyi smiled, then looked at Martial Uncle; "Then let the old man speak."
Then Martial Uncle introduced this thing to us; "This 'Yin gathering token' is one of your grandfather's few works.
Unlike ordinary Yin tokens, it can generate yin energy on its own.
Because it is carved with hundreds of different magic arrays, these magic arrays repel each other while attracting each other.
It's like the continuous operation of a cultivation technique within the human body.
The biggest feature is that while these magic arrays are operating.
They will continuously generate yin energy, like an independent small underworld.
Ghostly creatures hiding inside would be like living in that yin well behind the mountain.
While hiding inside, they can also cultivate, and the yin energy it produces is no weaker than a naturally formed yin well.
Of course, there is also a drawback, which is that humans and living things cannot enter.
This thing is indeed a good thing, but it is a rare treasure for ghosts."
After Martial Uncle finished speaking, he sternly warned me: "In the future, when you go out, try not to let others know, otherwise you might invite a fatal disaster."
I also seriously responded with a "good," thinking that I really don't have the ability to protect these things right now.
Then Martial Uncle muttered aside: "Your grandfather was really willing to part with it, he probably prepared it more than ten years ago."
I asked Nangong Yiyi to bring me the Yin gathering token to take a look, and Nangong Yiyi went out.
Suddenly, Martial Uncle's eyes flashed fiercely; "Strange, this female ghost isn't tempted by such a treasure?"
At this moment, Nangong Yiyi walked in and said; "Of course I'm tempted, I even want to kill for it."
Martial Uncle and Qianqian stood up, looking at Nangong Yiyi as if facing a great enemy, I even saw Martial Uncle's hand reaching into his chest.
Nangong Yiyi laughed heartily: "Don't be nervous, let alone the Ghost Oath I've taken.
If I attack you, I will incur divine retribution. Besides, this Yin gathering token has a restriction, and I can't get into it at all."
After speaking, she handed the Yin gathering token to Martial Uncle. Martial Uncle took it and looked at it, then said: "There's a divine sense on this thing?"
I asked Martial Uncle what divine sense was.
Martial Uncle said that if a divine sense is left on an item, others must obtain the permission of the divine sense's owner to use it.
Otherwise, even if it's smashed to pieces, they won't be able to get in. It's similar to the old method of blood recognition.
However, divine sense is a hundred times stronger than blood recognition.
After looking, Martial Uncle said a bit awkwardly: "Uh... I don't know whose divine sense is attached to it."
Nangong Yiyi pointed at me and said: "Why don't we let this kid try it? I always feel a sense of familiarity."
Martial Uncle nodded and also said it felt a bit familiar.
I took the Yin gathering token, and then just stared blankly at Martial Uncle and Nangong Yiyi.
After a long time...
"Hurry up and try it," Martial Uncle urged me with wide eyes.
Nangong Yiyi and Qianqian also looked at me with anticipation.
I weakly replied: "I don't know how to do it."
Suddenly, Martial Uncle's words got stuck in his throat.
Nangong Yiyi slapped her own face, and Qianqian's mouth twitched.
We just stared at each other, you look at me, I look at you, in silence for a long time
