Chapter 1291 The Returnee's Notes 365
Why?
Old Wang stroked his long beard and pointed to the drawing he had made, saying, "The place you're pointing to is Yangyan Peak."
But you also said you smelled the stench of rotting corpses, so it couldn't be Yangyan Peak, because that's the only relatively quiet place, which is why you were able to come out.”
After saying that, he circled the mountains in the north and said, "If I'm not mistaken, the place where you first landed should be the outer edge of Yin Sha Mountain, where there are the most corpses and ghosts."
But you're lucky; you didn't run into a single one.
That thing is not easy to deal with; he only saw it once with Xie Li.
"So it's very likely in the Yin Sha Mountain area, near Yang Yan Peak, because the Three Talents Locking Spirit Array is set up with the mountains as boundaries, and there's a buffer zone between the mountains..."
The so-called Three Talents Locking Spirit Array is formed by gathering the spiritual energy of the earth's veins and the power of the sun, moon and stars. Each mountain peak has bronze array stakes on its top. Xie Li goes to these places every time he repairs the array, but he would never dare to go down inside.
Old Master Wang had never even been to the mountaintop; he only buried peach wood on the outskirts.
When it came to repairing the formation, Wang Laodao also looked worried. Xie Li said that the things inside were consciously destroying the formation pillars, which is why the number of repairs had increased significantly.
Just like when Qiu Dafu accidentally entered, it was because the array pillars were damaged; otherwise, ordinary people would have been turned away by the outer array.
Although Wang Laodao had just explained the principles of the formation to Xie Ning, he was still puzzled because Xie Ning had gone quite far in but had not encountered any problems and had come out smoothly.
This is more than just luck. You have to understand that the place is not only inhabited by ghouls, but it is also a place where time and space are distorted, and it is full of poisonous miasma, making it an extremely dangerous place.
Xie Ning listened attentively, and was even thinking that Old Wang would say more, but the other party stopped talking and looked at him with a hint of disbelief.
After much thought, Wang Laodao could only attribute this good fortune to the fact that Xie Ning was Xie Li's apprentice.
Seeing that Xie Ning had many questions about Guibei Mountain, Old Wang was also somewhat puzzled, "Didn't your grandma tell you these things?"
"I've said it before, but it's a little different from what you said."
It should be said that the focus was different; Xie Li did not explain the formation of Guibei Mountain in such detail to Xie Ning.
Old Master Wang understood it better because he studied formations.
"How is your grandma doing lately? I told her a long time ago that she would move to the big city with you so she would have company, but she never listened before."
"She...is fine."
Xie Ning did not reveal Xie Li's matter, but only asked Wang Laodao some more questions about formations before preparing to leave.
"Mr. Xie, it's all packed up."
Xie Ning nodded, then looked at Xiao Xi sitting on the steps playing with the cat, and walked over.
"Xiaoxi, will you stay with Aunt Ning from now on?"
Xiao Xi reached out and grasped Xie Ning's fingertips, then looked up to meet Xie Ning's eyes, "Aunt Ning... Master."
Although she is young, she is very sensible.
Xie Ning was very happy with Xiao Xi's initiative.
"Okay, from now on you will be called Xie Xi."
Xiao Xi smiled and then hugged Xie Ning's waist. She liked Aunt Ning, the only person she could see...
When they came down the mountain, the assistant was carrying large bags and small packages. Fortunately, the people in the temple would accompany them down the mountain, otherwise he really wouldn't have been able to carry them all.
He hadn't expected the girl to have so many things, and many of them looked familiar to him, because Xie Ning had asked him to buy quite a few of them.
The children in the temple were all quite reluctant to part with Xiaoxi, after all, she was their only little sister. One of the children, who had a limp, breathed a sigh of relief.
It's not that he dislikes Xiaoxi, it's just that he has a vague feeling that it's not a good place for Xiaoxi to stay.
Old Master Wang is old now and doesn't care about worldly matters anymore, or rather, he doesn't care, but others might.
Xiao Xi can only learn Taoist arts here, since she can't see and therefore can't read.
In this day and age, it's difficult to even walk if you can't read.
Although some of them didn't like reading, they still went to school for a few years and learned to read.
Moreover, Xiaoxi will grow up. They can help her for a while, but they can't help her forever. There are some things that need to be considered.
Some of the children in the temple even joked that when they grow up, they want Xiaoxi to marry them.
Although it was a joke, the metaphor was inappropriate.
Now that Xiao Xi is with Xie Ning, she can be considered to have no worries about food and clothing, and she doesn't have so many troubles anymore.
Wang Heng told his wife about Xie Ning taking Xiao Xi away, and then he was scolded by his wife. "Even if my sister didn't mention it, I would have brought it up. You always said that Xiao Xi was not suitable to be raised in our family, and that the tranquility of the Taoist temple was more suitable for her."
But she was a little girl, and she was growing up. The temple was full of boys, so it was inconvenient.
Now that my daughter is living at school, and I'm free, taking care of a child isn't a problem at all.
Wang Heng frowned. "Master is watching over us, nothing will happen."
"You know that? People's hearts are unpredictable. Apart from You Nian and A Ze, those kids call you senior brothers, but which one of them was truly accepted into your master's tutelage?"
You understand less than I do.
Wang Heng was speechless. "They're all children I've watched grow up..."
Well, Xiao Xi has already been taken away by Xie Ning anyway, everyone has their own fate.
After clearing his throat, Wang Heng inquired about his daughter's studies. The girl hadn't even started university yet, but she had already set her sights on studying journalism.
He didn't really approve of it because that profession would expose him to too many bad things, and he was content as long as his daughter could live a peaceful and stable life.
The couple disagreed on this matter and started arguing again. In the end, Wang Heng was kicked out to pick up his child, as it was Friday and the children had already finished school.
Every Friday, the school is filled with parents waiting for their children, especially at the entrance of the primary school. Xie Ning followed Xiao Xi's gaze and looked outside, where the lively chatter of children filled the air.
"Does Xiaoxi want to go to school?"
She's not old enough to go to school yet, but she'll make arrangements if she wants to.
Xiao Xi shook her head, "I only want to follow Master."
"Yes, if Xiaoxi wants to go to school in the future, just let me know."
It would be best to have someone teach you Braille now, and you'll also need someone to teach you other things.
