The Exorcist

Chapter Thirty-Five Mental Replenishment Technique

"Don't cry, Datong. When you cry, you don't look like the wise and powerful person I was when I was young." Uncle Bao chuckled and tried his best to comfort his son, but this sounded particularly desolate to Xiao Xia's ears, "Your Uncle Ruan It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter to me, we seek kindness and get kindness, there is nothing to be unwilling to do, no matter what you say, I will send you off with a smile. It seems that I am still more blessed than your Uncle Ruan, I have a son to help me die. "

Bao Datong subconsciously rushed to hug his father, but the hug was empty and he fell directly to the ground. He didn't get up either, so he just lay on the ground and cried bitterly.

"Hey, silly kid, silly kid, why can't you let go?" Uncle Bao felt miserable. Although he was a Taoist, he thought of the "suffering" mentioned in Buddhism. Sure enough, separation and death are the most painful things in life. !

"How can there be such an unfilial son like you? Don't you and I feel uneasy when I leave?" His voice turned stern, but his eyes were crystal clear and soft, "Stand up quickly and behave like a man. There are friends waiting for you. Help!"

Bao Datong cried for a while before he got up. "You have to entrust me with your dreams from time to time." He said with great reluctance.

"If I want to see you, just come here, and you have to go through all the trouble of asking for a dream! If you have the ability, live a long and far away life, and live for one or two hundred years. Let's see if I can outlast you in the endless hell!" "Uncle Bao tried his best to comfort his son. Although he also knew that people and ghosts have different paths and the future is uncertain, how could he bear to see his son so sad? Datong is a child who is naturally warm-blooded and has a sweet temperament. Precisely because he values ​​feelings, parting is the saddest thing for him.

He turned to look at Xiaoxia and saw that the girl was in pain and confused. The man she loved died, and the road to resurrection was unclear; her best friend was in a coma, and even if others said he would be fine, how could she rest assured? Another friend of hers is going through the loss of her father, and she wants to comfort him, but doesn’t know how? At this moment, this child is under more pressure than Datong!

Uncle Bao walked over, wanting to comfort Xiao Xia, and suddenly saw the necklace hanging on Xiao Xia's chest. Because Xiaoxia gave Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's amulet to Ruan Zhan, what she hung around her neck was the bone chain she gave her and another strange necklace - a small stone tied to the emerald green string, with four corners inlaid in it. Some silver edges were added, and green threads were densely tied around the periphery of the stone, almost completely covering it, but there were still traces of beautiful red showing through the circles of green.

This stone is extremely beautiful and full of spiritual energy, but these are secondary. The most important thing is that this stone looks like a human heart, with a faint feeling of beating.

"Xiao Xia, show this stone of yours to uncle." A thought flashed through his mind and he asked hurriedly in ecstasy.

Xiaoxia was a little confused, but she still took off the necklace. Uncle Bao couldn't even wait for Xiaoxia to hand it to him, so he grabbed the necklace in vain and took a closer look at it. He held it lightly with his palms, closed his eyes and felt it again, and found that the stone was indeed alive. It was beating in the palm of his hand, and its fusion was good, just like a heart. But on the other hand, it is slightly aggressive, seems difficult to control, and is toxic. This all shows that this stone is an opportunity, or it may be a fatal thing.

"Xiao Xia, where did you get this stone?" Uncle Bao asked.

"It was given to me by a friend. Her name is Abai, and she is the most famous Yajin of the Lisu tribe for hundreds of years." Xiaoxia felt a little nervous, always feeling that Uncle Bao was going to say something to her, and this matter must be related to Ruan related to Zhan’s resurrection.

Uncle Bao immediately remembered this matter. Datong briefly mentioned it to him, but the specific details were not clear. He only knew that this respectable and pitiful woman fell in love with Sima Nan, the master of God's will, and it ended sadly.

"Didn't she say anything to you about the stone?"

"She said that others call this stone the Stone of Eternal Life, but the actual name is the Stone of Love. It can test whether a man has true love in his heart, but she didn't say how to use it specifically. Uncle, this stone -"

"This stone may be used to mend A-Zhan's heart." Uncle Bao said excitedly and a little embarrassedly, "His heart was hit by the fragments of the crystal knife. This is the injury to his body. From the human world, Medical considerations cannot save him, so we can only rely on magic or witchcraft. But this is only a possibility. After all, this is a stone, and how to integrate it with the flesh is a problem. It is best to invite this Yajin, Let her help.”

"Will Ah Zhan live in this way?" Xiao Xia felt happy, but then she thought that Uncle Bao was dead, and felt sad again.

But Uncle Bao shook his head, "Everything is unknown, so A Zhan's horoscope has always been vague. It depends on how hard you work and whether this stone can really be used. You have to work hard. ,Understand?"

The uncertain answer disappointed Xiao Xia, but it was hope after all. She looked at Uncle Bao and said, "I will definitely save him. Please tell Uncle Ruan that I will definitely bring Ah Zhan back to life and love him well. The pain and damage he suffered in the past thirty years have all been made up for."

"He knows." Uncle Bao raised the string of beads in his hand, and then, without waiting for Xiao Xia to understand, he walked to Bao Datong, whispered to him some unfinished family matters, and made the final arrangements with him. Farewell.

The light blue dawn slowly rose from the edge of the mountain top, and the moment of departure finally arrived. Watching his father's figure gradually disappear into the misty morning light, Bao Datong felt that a part of his life had also disappeared with his father's departure. Now, even if he is reluctant to give up, he must be strong to face what he has to do in the future. As the last descendant of their sect, he must do better than his father to comfort his father's spirit in heaven.

He believed that his father was watching him and he would never let him down!

Holding back the pain in his heart, Bao Datong moved Wan Li and Ruan Zhan to the innermost part of the cave, and then performed illusions and set up barriers in the open space in the mountain, while Xiaoxia went down the mountain to do other things to deal with the aftermath.

"Wipe your face clean, don't act like a little widow, it will make people suspicious, and the lottery is not good." Bao Datong couldn't help shouting as he watched Xiao Xia's slender figure disappearing behind a pile of rocks.

Xiaoxia waved to him and walked down the mountain trying to maintain a normal demeanor.

Ruan Zhan's mission since he was born has been completed. According to the original direction of fate, he should leave now. But she met him, she fell in love with him, she got him, so she couldn't let him go. She once said to him: Even if he goes to hell and ends in poverty, she will chase him back.

The moment she learned that his body was dead, she was desperate and felt that the world had lost its color. However, after a few hours of recovery, she successfully re-established her goal and confidence, that is, to kill him at all costs. After being rescued, even if she gave him half of her heart, she would resurrect him! She and Ruan Zhan's father had boasted that she would create miracles for him, so she would create miracles for him.

She encouraged herself all the way back to the town at the foot of the mountain, trying not to draw attention to herself, then checked out and bought some more things before returning to the mountain. At this time, Bao Datong's barrier had been completed, making the mountain clearing look no different than usual. Even Xiaoxia couldn't find the entrance to the cave. Fortunately, Bao Datong came out to pick her up.

"What are these?" Bao Datong asked, looking at the big and small bags that Xiaoxia had carried so hard on his back.

Xiaoxia didn't answer him, but walked to the cave to see the two men. Wan Li lay quietly, breathing sometimes rapidly and sometimes slowly, obviously enduring pain but unable to express it.

Xiaoxia caressed his face and said softly: "You have to get better, or I won't spare you." Although her words were threatening, her tone was extremely gentle, "Without you guys, even if we are good friends, it would be... We can't lie down together. A sister in the office told me before that men are unreliable. They are always not there when you need them. Now it seems that that sister was right. You'd better wake up. Otherwise - otherwise -" She said no for a long time without saying the following words, but her eyes were wet.

People are like this. When people around you surround you, you become accustomed to and ignore their existence. But once the people around you leave, you will feel how important and indispensable they are to you! Wan Li is her best friend, a person who is closer to her than her brother. He is already a part of her life. Without him, there will be shortcomings in her life that can never be made up for.

"I have decided that I will be nicer to you in the future, and then help you find a wife, and no longer let Nana's death hinder your happiness. Then we will live together for a long, long time. When we are old, we can go together Let’s do Tai Chi in the park.” She bent her head and kissed him on the cheek, then looked at the man next to her.

The man was even quieter, not even breathing, but it involved her whole body and mind. She had nothing to say to him, because everything was in her heart, and I believe it was the same in his heart. Now that his heart was broken, she had to find a way to mend it for him.

She kissed his cold lips and let the tears fall on his face drop by drop. She vowed in her heart to save him and then make up for all her tears.

"How many days does he have?" she asked Bao Datong without raising her head.

"Ten days at most." Bao Datong organized the food and water that Xiao Xia brought, "Why buy bedding for them? They need to catch the earth's energy, so they can just lie on the ground. Is it for themselves? It's okay, this The cave is too dark and cold, so you should be careful."

"It's not for me, it's for you. You can guard this place while I go find Abai." Xiaoxia said seriously.

"Can you?"

"I can't. But I have to do it." Xiaoxia said honestly, "Such a big thing happened last night. There is no guarantee that there are not one or two people with malicious intentions hiding in the dark. If you leave, they will come to attack you. , I can't protect the two of them. Besides, you are required to maintain the barrier here, which is a heavier task than finding Abai."

Bao Datong thought for a moment and knew that Xiaoxia was right. But he was worried that Xiaoxia would go so far alone to find Abai, and he couldn't help but hesitate.

"Don't worry. I ran away from home last time and walked alone for several months. Wasn't there any problem?"

Bao Datong nodded, wanting to relax, but he always felt a little uneasy. He never believed in premonitions or anything like that, but this time he really felt a little frightened.

Xiao Xia's Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva amulet has been broken into pieces. It must have been not only Uncle Ruan's full power that protected A Zhan in the desperate battle, but also the magical spiritual power of this amulet. Although Xiaoxia felt distressed about this, all she wanted was to keep this souvenir and the feeling of being loved by her grandma, so she was still grateful to the power in the dark for protecting her most beloved person. Even though the amulet could no longer protect her in the future, she wrapped the fragments up and hid them close to her body.

Also, due to the huge impact of the forcible attack from outside the formation, the Blood Wood Sword was broken. Whether it can be repaired is as unknown as its owner's resurrection index. The Destruction Seal was used as the primary tool to forcefully break the formation. It was completely destroyed, and the Broken Banner Konatsu couldn't use it. Therefore, Xiaoxia now has no protection and must find a way to save Ruan Zhan on her own.

This battle resulted in heavy losses, both in personnel and items, but after all, hope was left. As long as there is hope, what can't be overcome?

"Let's do this. I'll draw some more charms for you to take with you." Bao Datong said helplessly: "Promise me to be careful along the way and not to be careless. Who knows what else you will encounter! Remember, my father will give you The bone chain can also protect you, and each bead on it is engraved with a charm, but because it is not a treasure, its protective power is limited, so you still have to rely on yourself."

"Okay, you draw it for me now, I'm leaving soon." Xiaoxia looked at Ruan Zhan.

He only had ten days, and she had no time to waste.

Fortunately, when he came this time, Bao Datong brought his own things, so there was no shortage of things needed to draw the talisman. In order to enhance the power of the talisman, he cut his wrist and drew the blood curse.

"This is the real bloody sale." He joked casually, but his face was extremely serious, "Remember to use the Five Elements Forbidden Technique, and don't panic when something happens. Just think that the three of us are waiting for you. Just come and save me. A Zhan didn't say that Wan Li is also counting on you, and me. If you don't come back, I won't come out of the mountain. If you are really cruel and won't come back, I will only starve to death."

"I will return."

"I knew you had a conscience. Don't worry, Azhan. If you don't come back, I won't let him wake up. Even if he wakes up, I will press his soul back." Bao Datong smiled, showing his white tiger teeth, After some more instructions to Xiaoxia, she was allowed to go down the mountain.

Watching her back disappear again, Bao Datong was in a state of confusion. He would rather face danger himself than wait here. Sometimes it is easier to face danger directly than to worry about it. I hope Xiaoxia can find Abai smoothly, and I hope she has a safe journey. Even if she is born unlucky and encounters evil spirits, I hope she can turn danger into good luck as before, and I hope Abai can find a way to save Abai. Look!
