Zhou Yuanyuan didn't care about Cha Rui's evasive gaze. Zhou Yuanyuan didn't care that Cha Rui knew her identity. In the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies were in vain.
In Zhou Yuanyuan's eyes, Cha Rui was just an ant. She could kill him with a single finger if she wanted to. The reason she'd kept Cha Rui talking for so long was because she had something to ask.
"Mr. Cha, if we find the 'holy stone', do you know how to open the Yellow Springs Road?" Zhou Yuanyuan began to ask. Zhou Yuanyuan was afraid that the Nawa tribe had some secret method that could force Kong Ming to help Cha Rui.
"The Holy Stone is a sacred object of my clan. It will automatically absorb Yin energy. As for how to open the Yellow Springs Road, I don't know either." Cha Rui shook his head.
The Nawa people are born with weak bodies but very smart minds. They are born with the ability to sense things buried underground, such as treasures and minerals.
Thanks to this skill, the Nawa people lived a very prosperous life. However, they had a flaw: they were born weak and sickly, and it was difficult for them to have children. No matter whether they were men or women, they would not live beyond the age of forty.
It is recorded in the history of the Nawa people that the "holy stone" fell from the sky with thunder 30,000 years ago and appeared in their tribe.
The ancestors of the Nawa people saw that the "holy stone" could relieve their pain caused by the evil spirits that devoured their bodies, so they mobilized the entire tribe to build a "temple" for the "holy stone". On every full-moon night, the Nawa people sing and dance in front of the temple, praying for the health and longevity of their fellow tribe members, and for a prosperous and stable life.
Since the Nawa people discovered the "Holy Stone," their health has improved day by day. Before the "Holy Stone" disappeared, the average life expectancy of the Nawa people had reached over sixty years old. For the Nawa people, who often died young, this was like having two lifetimes.
Among the Nawa people, the "Holy Stone" is traditionally enshrined in the main temple. Even the tribe's most formidable warriors cannot command the "Holy Stone." Fortunately, the "Holy Stone" automatically draws upon the Yin energy of the Nawa people each month. As long as the Nawa people properly worship the "Holy Stone," they need not worry about anything else.
"If... I mean if, your "holy stone" can never be found, what serious consequences will the Wa people face?" Zhou Yuanyuan continued to ask.
"The Nawa tribe, having lost the 'Holy Stone', has been wiped out. I'm the only one left. No, not a single one is left. I'm no longer even a human being." Cha Rui raised his head, gazing southwest at the Nawa settlement, and said with a heavy face, "Master, Cha Rui came here not for himself, nor for the people of my tribe. It's because of the 'Holy Instructions' left by our ancestors. A dark aura has begun to appear in the Nawa settlement. As long as any Nawa remain, we must ask the 'Holy Stone' to clear the road to the underworld to prevent an irreparable disaster."
"What disaster? The end of the world?" Zhou Yuanyuan frowned. If Xiaoyu's suspicions were true, and the Three Realms were unstable, the Great World would eventually collapse. The day the Great World collapsed would be the end of the world.
"I don't know either." Cha Rui shook his head and said.
It wasn't that Cha Rui refused to tell, but he genuinely didn't know. The Nawa Hadith was just a palm-sized piece of parchment. How many words could be written on it? Cha Rui had guessed so much, a genius among geniuses.
Oh well! All those questions were in vain! It seemed Cha Rui didn't know much, or maybe he didn't want to tell her. Forget it, she'd better wait for the results of her reliable Xiaoyu's investigation.
Zhou Yuanyuan had no choice but to continue looking at the sky at a 45-degree angle with bright and sad eyes.
"Comrade Zhou, Comrade Zhou, are you still in there?" Zhou Yuanyuan just pretended to be bright and sad when she was interrupted by Wang Hao's voice.
Wang Hao and Tian Zhen waited outside the door for over half an hour, but Zhou Yuanyuan didn't come out. Remembering the murder at the Yu family last night, Wang Hao and Tian Zhen were both a little worried, so they summoned their courage and called out to her at the door.
Zhou Yuanyuan was stunned, and then she remembered that the "Comrade Zhou" Wang Hao and the others were talking about should be herself.
"I'm here. Just wait a little longer." Zhou Yuanyuan answered loudly, then pulled out a jade box from the Chaos Pearl's trial world and said to Cha Rui, "Do you want to go in there on your own initiative? Or should I help you?"
The jade box was originally an ordinary jade box used by the Yushan Sect to store medicinal materials. Zhou Yuanyuan asked Xiaoyu to refine it again and turned it into a spirit beast box that can hold living things. It was originally prepared by Zhou Yuanyuan to hold pets.
After meeting Cha Rui, Zhou Yuanyuan didn't dare to let such a dangerous person like Cha Rui wander around outside, so she took out the jade box and temporarily detained Cha Rui. Yu Meiru and her daughter were all direct descendants of Qian Dabao, and Zhou Yuanyuan didn't dare to ignore their safety.
"Master, I'll do it myself!" Although Cha Rui didn't want to be locked in the jade box by Zhou Yuanyuan, he was not stupid. Zhou Yuanyuan's strength was there, and it made no difference whether he was willing or not. It would be better to be more self-disciplined to avoid Zhou Yuanyuan's anger.
After Cha Rui entered the jade box, Zhou Yuanyuan placed a talisman on it and then tossed it into the storage bag in her coat pocket. At this moment, Zhou Yuanyuan was extremely grateful that she had just robbed the treasure house of the Yushan Sect leader not long ago. Otherwise, she would not have such a precious item as the jade box and storage bag.
"Master, master, Zhuzhu has finished eating. Can we leave now?" At this time, Chaos Pearl had already "swept" the entire Yu family home, even the basement was not spared.
The Chaos Pearl had swept away the Yu family's dark energy. Zhou Yuanyuan walked around the Yu family home, feeling the air return to normal temperature, and expressed satisfaction.
The Yu family murder case was finally solved by Zhou Xi, who returned to Kyoto two days later.
Cha Rui is no longer considered human, and it is a fact that several members of the Yu family died because of him. Zhou Yuanyuan did not hand over Cha Rui in the jade box. Even if Cha Rui was arrested and sent to a detention center, those places would not be able to hold him.
Zhou Yuanyuan still needed Cha Rui to lead the way to the Nawa settlement. If what Cha Rui said about the Yin and Dark Qi was true, she could take precautions as soon as possible. There were many people in this world that Zhou Yuanyuan cared about, and knowing the harm that Yin and Dark Qi could do to living beings, Zhou Yuanyuan couldn't just sit back and do nothing.
Zhou Xi asked the top leader for instructions and asked Zhou Yuanyuan to temporarily take care of Cha Rui. After Zhou Yuanyuan finished dealing with the Nawa tribe, Cha Rui would be allowed to return to Kyoto City for trial.
Zhou Xi, the special operations team leader, had a lot of credibility. Two hours after submitting the report, the top leader approved it: "Approved." The team members were to prioritize their own safety when carrying out the mission.
In this way, Zhou Yuanyuan took Cha Rui on a trip to Country T.
