Ji Mofan's furrowed brows remained unyielding.
What is hidden in those villages?
He checked the whole place yesterday after the demonic cultivators swept through it, and he tidied up everything that could be tidied up, but he found nothing.
Ji Yuze said that Xiao Jin had "buried" the things in the village, but although those villages were burned and destroyed, none of them had been dug up. This shows that the reason why those demonic cultivators went to attack them was not because they were attracted by the things that the Supreme Venerable had buried there, and therefore wanted to kill and rob them.
"What did the thing he buried look like?" Ji Mofan had no choice but to ask Ji Yuze.
“It’s a piece of incense that’s pitch black in color.” Ji Yuze said, gesturing to show the size of the object. “It’s huge, bigger than my face.”
This is even more confusing for Jimo Fan.
He himself is very interested in spices and the like. Even if a common spice has multiple aromas mixed together, if you bring it to him and let him smell it, he may not be able to point out the exact amount of each one, but he can easily identify what each one is associated with.
But now Ji Yuze is saying that Xiao Jin hid incense in the villages he searched?
No matter what kind of spice it is, if it is to work, its fragrance must be released. Since Ji Mofan couldn't smell anything, it at least means that the spices should have evaporated by then.
"Can you describe what the smell is like?" He had no choice but to ask Ji Yuze for secondhand information.
Ji Yuze painfully tapped his head, struggling to recall, "It's just... it smelled quite nice at first, but when you got closer, you could smell an indescribable stench."
“I spent fifteen years with Xiao Jin in the illusion array, and our relationship was closer than anyone else’s. But even so, I never found out why the Supreme Venerable made me do these things.” He continued, “It’s highly likely that when the Supreme Venerable ordered him to do these things, he didn’t tell him the reason at all.”
Ji Yuze muttered to himself that the most important reason he was able to get close to Xiao Jin was that all the other people who were closer to Xiao Jin had passed away one after another, and those who were not close to him were also unwilling to get close to him because of his reputation.
If it weren't for the Venerable One taking him in and giving him food, Xiao Jin might have been burned to death by the villagers as a jinx.
He couldn't bear to watch any longer. He clenched the small piece of paper in his hand and kept telling himself that it was just an illusion, which prevented his emotions from overriding his reason.
As expected, Xiao Jin did not need his help. At that crucial moment, Qu Jin appeared as if a god had descended, displaying a "miracle" in front of the villagers in his capacity as the Supreme Venerable.
