Chapter 299 Entrustment
Gu Nan immediately became serious, "Where should we go first? What preparations should I make?"
"Go west first." Chun paused, "Zhan Huo needs your Ghost King Pill as bait."
The Ghost King Pill was the pill that Gu Nan made after she survived the Ghost King's thunder tribulation. It was a dark pill mixed with golden light. It would squeak and turn in her dantian whenever she used her ghost power. It was her second life.
Even if the soul is destroyed one day, as long as the Ghost King Pill is still there, the soul can be nurtured again.
With such a big deal, it’s no wonder Junyi said she might die.
Gu Nan nodded to show that he understood, and had no intention of asking any more questions.
Chunyi looked at her for a while, then turned and walked up the mountain.
Gu Nan turned around and didn't follow them up the mountain. He went to find Jiang Wanying first.
Once she left, the affairs of Kyoto City would have to be handed over to Jiang Wanying. However, it wouldn't be long before the dispatched officials and relief teams would arrive.
But as soon as she mentioned it, Jiang Wanying slammed the table and stood up, "What! You want to leave this mess to me so you can have fun with Chunyi?"
"You agreed to go to Ross with me after this matter is over, and you value women over friends!"
Jiang Wanying gritted her teeth, her hair flying, "No, I don't agree."
Gu Nan understood her very well. Who could accept a colleague blaming them for unfinished work, even if she was a good sister?
Gu Nan felt guilty and explained in a gentle voice that he was going to eliminate the source of trouble, not to enjoy the scenery.
She didn't dare to say that she wanted to take out the Ghost King Pill to use as bait, otherwise Jiang Wanying would scratch her like bacon hanging from the beam.
After much persuasion, I finally finished explaining everything. It was almost dawn.
She hurried back to the mountain. Niu Niu and Lizhi were sleeping soundly. Aunt Yang was cooking in the small kitchen. There was water boiling in the pot, and two eggs and a few cut sweet potatoes were placed on the steamer.
Gu Nan asked everyone to have an egg every day, but Aunt Yang always saved the eggs, intending to send them back home when the situation improved.
Seeing Gu Nan in a hurry, Aunt Yang chased after him and asked, "Is there something urgent? Do you want to wake up the two children?"
"Don't worry, I'm going on a long trip. If they wake up, please call me. I have something to say to them."
Aunt Yang agreed and went to her room to take out a folded piece of clothing. "This is the clothing you asked me to sew a while ago. It was already ready, but you were too busy and I didn't have time to give it to you."
Gu Nan unfolded it and took a look. It was a very wide robe, the color was the common dark blue, without any extra patterns, but the stitching was tight and fine, and there were hems at the collar and wrists.
"Please help me find a bag to pack it in first."
Aunt Yang went to busy herself with Gu Nan's luggage for his long journey, so Gu Nan turned around and went to Hui Wu's meditation room.
However, after not seeing him for a few days, Huiwu had aged a lot. He sat on the cushion, motionless, like a withered tree stump.
Gu Nan walked in and knelt down opposite him. Hui Wu poured her a cup of tea with trembling hands, "Donor Gu, I know why you're here."
He smiled and said, "Don't worry, these old bones can still hold on for a few more years. If anything happens, I will definitely raise your two children to adulthood."
The tea had been cast with a spell beforehand, and Hui Wu poured it for her as an offering. Gu Nan drank the hot tea in the cup in one gulp. "Thank you, Master Hui Wufa. Just one word from you, and I'm relieved."
"You still have to worry about the children's enlightenment. It doesn't matter what books they teach, as long as they can recognize the words. They can choose what books to read and what path to take in the future."
"The silver I prepared for them is buried under the swing in the back mountain. If my trip goes well, each of the two children will receive half. Please ask the magician to perform the ritual on my behalf."
If she stayed in this era, she would do her best to find them a path that did not belong to this era.
But she was leaving, and they were too young, and it was uncertain whether they could grow up in such a precarious situation.
Leave the money and entrust it to the elders. Whether they will sink into ruin with the times or gain enlightenment through pain in the future depends on their luck.
Hui Wu bowed to Gu Nan, "Donor Gu is righteous."
Gu Nan said goodbye to Hui Wu, walked around Fayuan Temple, sighed, and went to the back mountain.
Junyi was indeed in the wooden house. The house was clean and tidy, and the things were tidied up, as if he was really just going on a long trip and would continue to live here when they came back.
