After Hua Wuxin emerged from the hot spring villa, he rushed like crazy, desperately trying to reach the Nanyue garrison. The Qilin Guards, standing sentry at the valley entrance and in the forest, heard the sound of someone treading on leaves and looked up to see only a fleeting shadow. When they caught up to investigate, if they hadn't seen that familiar figure, they would have thought they were paranoid because of the recent poisoned corpse incident.
The three Prajna brothers and sisters invited by Ou Yezi remained at their posts as usual. Although the artillery had been destroyed, the granary still contained some important items.
Originally, the three of them had agreed with Ou Yezi to guard the artillery, ending their agreement when it became useless or destroyed. However, Tanhua spotted Jiang Ling, and Prajna also said he'd read a fortune and knew Jiang Ling would definitely come looking for them again. To ensure Jiang Ling wouldn't miss them when she came, the three of them volunteered to help guard the artillery for a while, even though they had nothing else to do.
Prajna sat cross-legged on the roof, eyes closed, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and moon. Her right ear twitched slightly, and she slowly opened her eyes, looking down at the eaves. She said, "Hua Mei, come out quickly! We have guests."
"What kind of guest do I need to trouble you to inform me, big brother?" As he spoke, Tan Hua flew to the roof and saw a figure running towards them at a speed visible to the naked eye.
When he looked closely at the person's face, Tan Hua's eyes widened involuntarily: "It's him! Big brother, you've made so many mistakes in your predictions, and finally you got one right!"
Seeing Tanhua so happy, Prajna couldn't help but smile lightly: "My predictions have never been wrong. I promised you that I would help you resolve your past grudges. You must seize this opportunity."
"Yeah! Great, he came to find me, he came to find me!"
Tanhua looked like a child, and with this joyful expression, she looked like a lovely, lively fairy who made people want to be close to her. Even Prajna herself couldn't remember how long it had been since her sister had smiled so happily. Was the last time she did so when she found out Jiang Ling was still alive?
After Hua Wuxin landed on the roof, his clothes were soaked with sweat. He was sweating and panting as he squatted down to adjust his breathing.
Tan Hua quickly handed over the handkerchief and water he had prepared. "I knew you would come back to find me, but I didn't expect it to be so soon. So, have you thought it through and are you ready to leave with me?"
Hua Wuxin acted as if he couldn't see what Tan Hua was holding. He took a few steps back, wiped his face with his sleeves, and said, "...I didn't come here to look for you."
After hearing this, Tan Hua was not angry but rather became even happier: "Don't lie to me, your target is right here. If you don't come to me, who else can you find?"
"......" Hua Wuxin didn't say anything, but just looked past Tanhua and looked at the little boy who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed.
Tan Hua followed Hua Wuxin's gaze and suddenly understood something. Furiously, he threw the teacup from the roof, nearly hitting Lao Er, who was also about to come up to watch the fun.
"...Brother, you knew he would come, so you deliberately embarrassed me?"
Facing Tanhua's question, Prajna opened her eyes and said calmly, "Of course not. Just stand here. You'll have a chance to speak later."
Tan Hua glanced at Hua Wuxin, wondering if his extreme joy and sorrow just now might have frightened him. He tried hard to control his emotions and said, "...Okay."
Tanhua was still the same person Hua Wuxin had remembered her before. Although her body had changed, her personality hadn't changed at all. Hadn't she always said that she had received guidance from a master and cultivated the way of heaven?
This person was still extremely hot-tempered, with a temper that fluctuated from low to high, which didn't seem like someone who had mastered the Dao at all. Hua Wuxin had never come to them because of Tan Hua, and that was not the case in the past, was not the case now, and would be the case in the future.
However, the implication behind Prajna's words made Hua Wuxin curious until death: "From what you said, Senior, did you know what I was going to do?"
Prajna said, "I've been staying in the granary all day, so I don't know what's going on with you. But I imagine you'd rather stay in that hot spring and make some money than worry about the world, with your beautiful wife by your side. Since you've come out and come looking for me, it must be something that's happened that even a black market boss like you can't solve."
Hua Wuxin's respectful manner towards the child at this moment could make someone, uninformed, mistake him for an adult playing house with a child. And then there's the child, despite his young age, speaking in a rather mystical, yet mature manner. One might even wonder how his parents managed to raise him into such a grown-up.
Hua Wuxin came to ask for help. Even if he didn't want to communicate with Tanhua, he had to give Prajna face: "I came here this time because I really have something to ask of you, Senior."
Upon hearing this, Tan Hua quickly intervened and said, "Brother, since he has something to ask of you, please help him."
"That's not what I meant. I'm too lazy to take care of these things. I can't let my hard work go to waste just because of you. Besides, before you speak, you should first listen to whether he is willing for you to help speak, right?"
Prajna's words were half for Hua Wuxin and half for Tanhua. Tanhua was anxious, and he knew it, but some things just couldn't be rushed.
"I..." Tanhua felt a little guilty when asked by Prajna, and looked at Hua Wuxin, then quickly looked away.
Hua Wuxin knelt on one knee on the roof, bowed his head and said, "As long as Senior is willing to help, I will do my best to meet your request."
Prajna didn't answer his question right away. Instead, she glanced at her second brother Jialuo who suddenly jumped up and asked with a smile, "Jialuo, why are you here too?"
Jialuo has always been very frugal with words, but today she spoke very politely: "Join in the fun."
Prajna looked at him and smiled, then said, since even someone like Gala who doesn't like to meddle in other people's business has come, "Well, let me listen first."
Hua Wuxin pleaded, "My wife is seriously ill, and none of the doctors in Qingliang Valley can help. I hope you can come out and help."
Prajna took stock of the aura surrounding Hua Wuxin before asking, "Didn't you obtain the Black Pearl and the Li Family Jade Cicada earlier? Why aren't they enough for you to save people?"
