This made Li Guang startled for a moment. It was the first time he had seen someone with such a strong will. But it was only for a moment. Li Guang immediately refused:
[Impossible, doing so would violate the rules of the world. You are a soul from another world, and you can stay here only because of the protection mechanism of heaven. After the mission is completed, the protection mechanism will disappear, and the world consciousness will do its best to expel you.
I'll have no choice but to send you back. If you insist on staying here, your soul will be torn to pieces, and even Shen Tingsi, the evil spirit, won't be able to save you.]
After Li Guang finished speaking, Ji Huaichuan fell silent, but suddenly found that Li Guang's expression was a little unnatural, and he was hiding something from him!
[You definitely have a way! Li Guang, don't lie to me.]
The aura around Ji Huaichuan suddenly became several degrees colder, which made Li Guang stiffen for a moment. He had forgotten that this was still a little evil spirit, but that was not acceptable.
[No, no, there's no way. We all have to follow the laws of the world. What you're asking is impossible. I won't tell you anymore. Tianshu is still waiting for me to go on our honeymoon.]
Li Guang's eyes flickered slightly. He knew that he was unreliable and was afraid of letting something slip, so he was in a hurry to leave. Just as he was about to withdraw his consciousness and leave, he suddenly found that he seemed to be disconnected from his original consciousness... What was going on!
At this moment, Li Guang suddenly heard Ji Huaichuan's sinister voice:
[If you don’t explain clearly, don’t leave.]
Just a few words made Li Guang sweat profusely. When did this man have such ability? Was it really because he hadn't been back for so long that he couldn't keep up with current events?
As if knowing what Li Guang was thinking, Ji Huaichuan smiled and said:
[I listened to Si's teachings, and I never thought they would come in handy.]
"My dear, let's both take a step back. If you change the conditions, I'll give you a little more reward. After the mission is completed, we can each go back to our own homes and find our own mothers. Isn't that good?"
Li Guang felt that he was going bald.
[Li Guang, I have a bad patience.]
Ji Huaichuan closed his eyes. He had now detained Li Guang's consciousness and could touch him. If Li Guang delayed any further, he was afraid that he would not be able to help but beat Li Guang up.
[Well, let me put it this way. If you want to stay in this world peacefully, you have to report to the Lord God. That old man is very difficult to deal with. You can't beat him, so there's no hope.]
[My master knows the Lord God.] Ji Huaichuan said in a deep voice.
[Of course I know that evil spirit. He was the one who raised the old Lord God. They often fight, and the old Lord God never wins. You could try to find him, but you also know that evil spirit. He's a rebellious person, and who knows what's going on in his head. It's very strange.]
Li Guang curled his lips. Now he had no choice but to come clean. He didn't want to be beaten. Li Guang was not good at fighting, but Shen Tingsi thought it was fun and chased him to fight. He couldn't beat him, so he could only run away.
"You mean, my master has a way to make me stay?" Ji Huaichuan asked.
[Yes, if that evil spirit shows up, it would probably only take a word, but it would be difficult for you to deal with him.]
From Ji Huaichuan's tone, it seemed that he wanted to go find Chen Tingsi. Li Guang decided not to leave for the time being and was ready to see what was going on, but he stopped the next second.
[You come with me after the mission is over. I can't convince him on my own.]
Li Guang: Damn, the lively scene happened to me.
[I won't go. You know he'll beat me to death if he sees me, so I won't go.]
If you don't go, I will kill you right now.
[You are so unreasonable. You have no tricks of your own and yet you want to take me to practice with that old man. You are so mean!] Li Guang complained.
[Learn and see]
Ji Huaichuan played with his fingers and said lightly.
"Alright, alright, alright. Just consider it a favor from me, brother. Once this mission is complete, I'll go with you to face that evil spirit. Even if I die, I'll consider it a sacrifice for justice." Li Guang was completely pissed off. Whatever happened next, it was up to him.
[Thank you.]
In the end, the conversation ended with a friendly exchange between Ji Huaichuan and Li Guang. Ji Huaichuan asked Li Guang if there was anything that could restrain the rules. He had a headache. Li Guang said that he really had no idea what to do and he did not have enough authority.
After finishing the conversation with Li Guang, Ji Huaichuan slowly woke up and saw a nervous Zhang Qiling when he opened his eyes. Although his facial expression was very little, Ji Huaichuan still saw worry in Zhang Qiling's eyes. Had he slept for a long time?
Ji Huaichuan thought so and asked the same question.
"Two days"
"What? I slept for two days!"
He didn't expect that just chatting with Li Guang would take so long.
"Xiao Chuan'er, you finally woke up. We couldn't wake you up no matter how hard we tried these past two days. Are you feeling unwell?" Wuxie came over and asked.
Ji Huaichuan pinched his brows and said softly: "Nothing, maybe I'm too tired. Where are we now?"
"We've already arrived at the Queen Mother of the West's Palace and found Aunt Wenjing, but Third...Third Uncle is injured."
When talking about Wu Sansheng, Wuxie paused a little unnaturally. Ji Huaichuan thought that he might have known about Wu Sansheng and Jie Lianhuan.
Ji Huaichuan felt that the atmosphere around him was not very good. Jie Yuchen and Hei Xiazi were not there. Only Wuxie and Fatty were there, but Fatty was not very active either.
"Have you found the entrance?" Ji Huaichuan asked.
"We found a place in front. It's covered with a lid and there's wind underneath. It might be the entrance." Wuxie said as he shone the flashlight forward.
There were fallen leaves on the ground. Ji Huaichuan was far away, but he could vaguely see a pull ring.
Ji Huaichuan slowly walked to the pull ring and squatted down, pulling it hard, but it was too heavy and he couldn't move it. He also accidentally cut his finger. Ji Huaichuan frowned and was about to pull it again, but was pulled up by Zhang Qiling and carried aside.
Zhang Qiling frowned and said nothing, wrapping Ji Huaichuan's wound with a Band-Aid. The fat man also took the opportunity to call the group of people including Mop.
Several people worked together to pull up the stone cover, revealing a basement. Ji Huaichuan broke free from Zhang Qiling's hand and jumped directly into the basement. Zhang Qiling hurriedly followed him, followed closely by Wuxie and the fat man.
Walking along the passage, he came to a hall with a round platform in the center, surrounded by jade figurines. Ji Huaichuan walked along the side of the hall to a lampstand and touched it with his hand. The lampstands lit up one after another, and the hall was brightly lit. The hall was full of jade figurines, and an alchemy furnace hung above the round platform in the middle.
"It's the Queen Mother of the West's alchemy furnace!"
Chen Wenjing also followed in.
There were several pills wrapped in beeswax on the round table. Ji Huaichuan slowly approached the round table and reached out to pick up the pills.
"Xiaochuan'er, don't touch it! The distribution of these pills may have certain patterns, and it may be dangerous." Wuxie stopped him.
