"I told you to put it in your mouth, so just put it in your mouth. Why are you talking so much?"
Master Mao became even more anxious, glanced out the window, and spoke again in a stern voice.
"Oh fine."
Seeing her father's expression, Xiangling was stunned for a moment, but finally took the bead and put it in her mouth.
Suddenly, Xiangling felt as if the heat in her body was sucked away by the bead, and her body immediately began to feel cold, but she did not seem uncomfortable.
At this moment, there was a noisy sound of footsteps outside the door.
Xiangling subconsciously held her breath.
The next moment, there was a violent knock on the door.
"Lao Mao, we heard that someone survived here, so we came to help. Are you okay?"
Hearing this, Master Mao looked at Xiangling deeply, made a gesture to her to keep quiet, and then ran over to open the door.
Outside, countless pale-faced people were holding various weapons and farm tools and staring fiercely at the house.
"Seventh aunt, it's okay. It was my daughter Xiangling. She was naughty and didn't sleep well at night. She moved into the house. She just woke up and opened the door and walked out. She was seen by Fourth Brother. You know Fourth Brother, he is a coward. He didn't see anything clearly and thought someone was alive. He was so scared that he screamed and ran away. I couldn't catch up with him."
Master Mao smiled apologetically at the old lady who was leading the group.
"Oh, Xiangling, come here, look, this is your seventh grandmother."
As he spoke, Master Mao waved to Xiangling.
Xiangling had no idea what was going on at this moment, so she could only follow obediently.
At the front door, there are two mirrors facing each other, which is very strange. She had studied Feng Shui with Hu Tao for a period of time. Putting a mirror called Bagua mirror at the door can ward off evil spirits, but putting two mirrors is a bad thing. Once evil spirits come in, they cannot leave and can only stay at home. Sooner or later, something bad will happen at home.
Although she couldn't figure out what had happened, Xiangling still saw her current self through the two mirrors.
His face was ashen, and he didn't look like a living person at all.
At this time, the group of people outside saw Xiangling’s livid face and all nodded, then they felt relieved.
The old lady who was in the lead reached out with an unsightly look on her face, grabbed the ear of the man hiding behind her, and pulled him out.
This was the man who was just talking to Master Mao.
"Old Four, what's wrong with you? How can you be scared like this by a little girl?"
The old lady said with a look of disappointment.
After saying that, he snorted, turned around and left.
The fourth brother looked at Xiangling blankly. He had clearly seen this girl with a ruddy face and a strong yang energy when she came out. She was basically a living person. How come she was dead again now?
Seeing this, the others shook their heads and turned away.
Seeing this, Master Mao chuckled, and after everyone left, he closed the door.
"Dad, what's going on?"
Xiangling asked impatiently.
But Master Mao smiled and waved at her, pointed to the inner hall, and then walked over.
Seeing this, Xiangling had no choice but to follow.
When they reached the inner hall, Master Mao reached into his mouth and pulled out a green bead.
After the bead was taken out, Master Mao's originally sullen face suddenly turned rosy, and the originally cold aura disappeared. "Okay, that's enough. Take out the corpse-transforming pill in your mouth."
Having said that, Xiangling had no choice but to follow suit and take the bead out of her mouth.
Suddenly, Xiangling felt a warm current flowing from her heart to her whole body, and her originally cold limbs all became warm.
"Sit down, let's talk slowly."
Seeing Xiangling sit down, Master Mao cleared his throat and began to tell the story.
"In this world, life and death are reversed. Everyone is dead, and only the two of us are alive. What you have to do is not let others see that you are alive."
Who knew that as soon as Master Mao opened his mouth, his words almost made Xiangling sit on the ground.
"Dad, what did our Wanmin Hall do wrong to make us the enemy of the world?"
"What is Wanmin Hall? This is the Hall of Rebirth."
Chapter 157: Dream God and Nightmare God, Super Ancient Pokémon
"Just like what you heard, there is no supernatural power in this world. Therefore, I cannot give you a correct answer to what you said and the truth of this world."
The next morning, Li Pan, dressed in casual clothes, left Liyue Harbor with Hu Tao without telling anyone.
"So, last night, I had someone search for all the unusual things that happened in Liyue recently. I looked through all the rumors that had just appeared and the ancient legends. In the end, out of 412 pieces of information, I found that these three places were most likely to have gains.
Sitting in the carriage, Li Pan took out the map, spread it out, and pointed to the three locations he had circled.
Seeing this scene, Walnut and Crystal Lamp Spirit looked at each other in surprise.
"Is this Boss Li during the period of involution? It's really scary."
The crystal lamp spirit complained in a low voice.
“Which three places?”
Walnut took the map.
"Wuwang Slope, the Great Abyss of Layered Rocks, and... the Clear Water Plain."
Li Pan's steady voice flowed in the carriage.
“Are there any abnormalities in these three places?”
"You should be familiar with Wuwang Slope. Many Liyue people are buried there after death, so rumors about ghosts and gods often appear there. The same is true for the Stratum Chasm. Anything that happens in the mine is a huge loss, so in order to pray for spiritual comfort, the miners began to pray to the illusory gods. Since there are gods, things that are opposite to gods will naturally be imagined."
Li Pan pointed his slender finger at Wuwang Slope and the Layered Rock Abyss and spoke slowly. After he finished speaking, he hesitated for a moment and then turned his finger towards Bishuiyuan.
"As for Bishuiyuan, it is very normal here. It is very normal. There have never been any rumors or ancient legends. It is so ordinary that it is almost unrememberable."
After hearing this, Walnut and Crystal Lamp Spirit were completely confused.
"If it's completely normal, then why circle this place and put a highlight symbol on it?"
Hu Tao asked in confusion. The three locations on the map, the Layered Rock Chasm and the Impermanent Slope, all did not have this key symbol.
"Because you said yesterday that you and your companion named Xiangling were outing in this place when you encountered this incident. So, I guess the possibility of finding clues here is the greatest."
After saying that, Li Pan tapped the table twice with his slender fingers.
"This is too normal. Combined with what you said, this is the biggest abnormality."
Hu Tao nodded in understanding, supporting her chin with one hand, and looked at Li Pan's profile with some fascination.
"We are going to Bishuiyuan now. You are lucky. If you had come a few years earlier, it would have been troublesome because the road from Liyue Port to Bishuiyuan has been in disrepair for a long time. It would take at least three days to get there. But after I took over as Kaiyang, I rebuilt the main road of the entire Liyue. According to the current route, we will probably reach Bishuiyuan in the evening."
In the carriage, Hu Tao and Li Pan were chatting idly.
Hu Tao was obviously absent-minded and just stared at Li Pan's profile.
But at this moment, the picture in front of Walnut's eyes suddenly changed, and the originally colorful world turned into black and white.
The scene also changed from the carriage to a pit full of debris.
"Where is this place?"
At this moment, Hu Tao felt his scalp tingling and couldn't help but exclaim.
"I do not know either."
At this time, the voice of the crystal lamp spirit came. Hearing the voice of her companion, Walnut's heart finally settled down.
"It seems that my husband's guess was correct. As expected, something unexpected happened when we got close to Bishuiyuan."
At this moment, Hu Tao was not surprised but happy. She was not afraid of any unexpected events, but was afraid that there would be no unexpected events.
It would be a big problem if we searched all three places and nothing happened.
"What should we do now? Should we just wait here, or take the initiative to look for clues?"
The crystal lamp spirit asked with some concern. It couldn't use its power now, which meant that if it encountered danger, Walnut would have to solve it herself.
Hu Tao doesn't have the Eye of God in her hand now, and she doesn't know what will happen in reality if she dies in a dream.
"It has come to this point. How can we just sit there and wait for death?"
Walnut picked up a stick.
Although she does not have the Eye of God now, the spear skills inherited from her ancestors in the Wangsheng Hall have not been lost, so she is still capable of fighting.
But as soon as he took a step forward, the scenery in front of him changed drastically again.
"Hmm~"
“Hehehe~”
Two voices sounded above his head, and Kurumi immediately raised his head, but the next moment, after seeing clearly what was above his head, a shocked expression appeared in Kurumi's eyes.
……
"Dad, what you mean is that...Wangsheng Hall has become our ancestral family business, and you can't cook, so you have always been building houses for the living?"
In the Hall of Rebirth, Xiangling looked at Master Mao with a devastated face.
"Of course. I look like... I can cook, don't I?"
Master Mao put down the half-finished door panel in his hands and looked at Xiangling strangely.
"Nothing, nothing."
Xiangling stroked her forehead gently. At this moment, she felt her mind was a mess.
At this moment, neither Pokémon, Guoba, nor even the Eye of God were by her side, which made Xiangling feel an indescribable sense of crisis.
"Okay, now that you're awake, don't just sit there and finish building this house. Yesterday, the child of the Eighth Master came back to life. We need to build him a better house and bury him in Wuwang Slope."
Master Mao didn't notice at all how strange what he said was.
"Oh...oh, I know."
Xiangling took the hammer and wooden board in a daze, and began to learn how to build a house with Master Mao.
But after a while, Xiangling put down the hammer in her hand in annoyance.
In this situation, how can she hide here and build a house peacefully?
"Dad, what do you know? Tell me now."
Xiangling puffed up her face and looked at Master Mao indignantly.
Hearing this, Master Mao chuckled, but did not stop his hands.
"Girl, don't be in a hurry when building a house. The Liyue people believe in returning to their roots. No matter where they go, they will eventually return to the place where they were born. And this house is the final destination of the Liyue people after they die. They have worked hard all their lives, and finally they can live and enjoy a peaceful life. This house is the last dignity of the living, so we must not be careless about the house.
Master Mao spoke slowly, but his hands moved with terrifying dexterity. Soon, an exquisite door was completed.
At this time, Xiangling was still sitting there with a sad face.
Suddenly, Xiangling was stunned.
"Wait... Leaves return to their roots... Leaves return to their roots!"
Suddenly, Xiangling stood up.
"Thanks, Dad. I know what you're talking about now."
After saying this, he was about to leave the Hall of Rebirth.
"Before you leave, remember to take the corpse-dissolving pills with you. By the way, there are horses at the door."
"knew! "
Xiangling turned back, grabbed the green beads on the table and left the Hall of Rebirth.
Master Mao was still slowly painting the house under the dim light. His shadow was stretched long by the light behind him, revealing a shape other than a human.
Xiangling left the Wangsheng Hall without hesitation. She rode on the skeleton horse tied at the door and ran towards Bishuiyuan.
This incident happened to her in Bishuiyuan, so naturally she had to return there to settle down.
The white-bone horse was not slow and was tireless, galloping all the way. After a few hours, the outline of Bishuiyuan appeared in front of Xiangling.
