People after you will naturally not receive the blessings of all gods. If you cannot be recognized by all the gods, you will have no chance with the gods. You also say that if you don’t want to become a heavenly being, you really will not eat, but will smash other people’s bowls. Or do you want to start over again and occupy the mountain to become a god? Hey, don't be so serious, I was just joking. "
He was indeed smiling when he said this, but his intention was sinister. This is a threat: several Tarvas have disclosed their identities. Although it is a great challenge to the dignity of the gods, it also makes them countless enemies in another sense. It was obvious that the God of Fragrance had long been aware of their danger, and at the same time, he used this to hint at their power and position and let them correct their positions.
Bai Ya was not affected at all. He talked about his own affairs as if he didn't understand: "You know, we are eager to find people, so we can't waste time. In the past half month, we have suffered a lot, but we haven't been able to waste time. The person you are looking for has not heard anything about it. We trust you very much, and we hope you have full trust in us."
"Of course, of course...but you have been trekking for many days, why don't you take a break?"
"You can just say that is your new plan - if you have any."
"Yes, of course. I was also worried about how to ask you for help."
This tone is almost like saying "I was also worried about how to continue to make things difficult for you." However, what he proposed this time was much more serious.
It is said that someone brought news about the consort of Ge Shen Kingdom.
They had been to Gechen State, and they knew a little bit about the Queen's "household affairs". The prince-consort of Ge Shen Kingdom was the father of the little queen. A local traveler from a distant country brought with him a waist badge made of wood and jade. Orewood jade is rare in Jiutian Kingdom, and the one with the largest output is Gechen Kingdom. Moreover, the decorative style on it was very special and the workmanship was exquisite, which attracted their attention. In the end, the travelers handed this waist card into the hands of the Queen of Gechen Kingdom. Her mother immediately recognized it as her father-in-law's. The national preceptor performed a divination and told them that the owner of the waist badge was still alive.
There's nothing more exciting than this. I heard that the Queen Mother felt much better that day, with a rosy complexion and high energy. The little Queen was also very happy. Although her father has long been blurred in her memory, she is happy when her mother is happy.
Now Ge Shenguo has been recruiting brave and resourceful people from all over the world to conduct surveys near the discovery of the waist card. It was far away from here, farther away than where the bird-gods lived. They have to travel across the entire island country to the coastal area on the other side, where it is said that the waistband was picked up. This trip is very difficult and dangerous. It has to pass through the desert, pass by the edge of the swamp, pass through a meadow, and then climb over a steep mountain range. Legend has it that the terrifying Moon Eclipse Tengu lives there. It is not easy to get around here because the mountains are so long and narrow. Climbing over the mountains is the territory of Asura. There is abundant material there, and it used to be the capital when Jiutian Kingdom was not called Jiutian Kingdom. However, now that they are occupied by warlike Asuras, it may not be so easy to pass. After that, there is another dangerous mountainous area before we can truly reach the coast at the other end of the Nine Heavens Kingdom.
"Are you kidding..." Jun Aoyan smiled a little reluctantly, "In such a big place, if we are asked to find a person, isn't this just a drop in the ocean, a needle in a haystack? We haven't even found the person we are looking for, and we have to Find another one..."
"No, no, no, listen to me." Xiang Shen raised his lips proudly, "This is different. This time, I asked the Song God to hand over the belt to me. You just hold the token, okay? Are you looking for too many? Isn't this Yin Yang magic difficult for you?"
"This is a bit strange." Qi Huan felt that something was not right. "Since you can find it with Yin Yang magic, why do you still come to us? No matter which one of you has power, it is far superior to ours. Furthermore, Why is this badge not given to the warriors of Gechen Kingdom, but to us?"
"You don't know something. No matter how powerful we are, we can't see thousands of miles away. Otherwise, I would have brought the person you are looking for long ago. That place is far and remote, and there are many spiritual interferences on the way. Only you can It will be more effective if we go there in person. Now, relying on our ability alone, we can only confirm that the owner of the badge is still alive. As for why I gave it to you... To be honest, everyone has spent too much energy searching for the person in the past few years. There are very few of them, most of them are a group of foolhardy fools. Even if you give this badge to them, it will be useless. Before you come back, I learned that you are already on the way back, so I asked them to get it. I got a waist badge as a token. Can you do it?"
"...We can't guarantee it."
"The supplies on the road are not a problem, just ask for the price. You brought Wu Xiaying back as promised, and I haven't had time to thank you yet. Ah, it's just that you must come back before winter, and you must bring your waist tag. If you lose it, Such precious things are not counted. It’s not that I’m making things difficult for you, but the national master of Gechen Kingdom will not be happy if the time is delayed for too long.”
"Are you sure he is alive?" Bai Ya's tone was somewhat questioning, "It's not that I doubt your ability. But if there is an error in the divination, or there is something else wrong, he is already dead, or he is unwilling to come back, or else He died before we found him, so what should we say? We can't bring the dead back to life, and we are not corpse chasers. And you are too pressed for time."
"Well……"
After all, the Gandharva is not an unhuman character. He thought about it and felt that Bai Ya's words made sense.
"Don't let my good sister Ge Shenguo know about these words. Isn't that just questioning her ability? That person is very unreasonable. However, I can understand your concerns. Let's do this. If you want to see a person alive, you must see a corpse. As for this corpse, I have my own way. After all, it is empty talk. I can't have more time. I promise Ge Shenguo that I will return it to them before winter. Otherwise, No one is willing to lend it to me either.”
Difficulties come one after another.
Originally, I wanted to rest more in Xiangji Country, but time waits for no one. Due to the special nature of the task, they couldn't afford to delay for too long, and they didn't dare to leave without being fully prepared. However, they still paid a visit to the monarch "by the way" and briefly reported on their journey. Unexpectedly, the God of Fragrance did not listen, and the prepared statement was moved to the king, so that the confessions were not in vain. After all, it's inappropriate to say something so bluntly: We killed the gods elsewhere. Is that true?
Fortunately, the monarch only listened to the excitement and did not ask too many questions. These things actually have nothing to do with him. The accommodation prepared for them in the palace is still there and has always been kept clean and tidy, with someone cleaning it every two days. Although it is a far cry from the feeling of going home, it is comforting enough. Additionally, they briefly met the Mother of the Nation in the harem. This time, I have a good reason to catch up with the wind and wash away the dust, and it will not arouse suspicion. The mother of the country and Matsukawa Yodo winked, and while exchanging polite words, they sent away the first few maids who were causing trouble in the room.
"Are you saying that Miss Jun's candle didn't work?"
"Well..." Jun Aoyan glanced at Bai Ya, "Bai Shaoxia said that he clicked it twice and dreamed of his father. Although I only used it once, I really didn't see it."
"Try a few more times and see?"
"Well, to tell you the truth, we are very tired from this trip. We are so busy every day that we basically sleep on pillows. No one has the energy to help us look at the candles..."
"Or should we try again tonight? I'll ask the palace maid to guard it, and I'll kill it for you when the time comes."
"Hahaha, no need." Jun Aoyan smiled sheepishly, "I still want to see my real father."
"Who isn't?" Bai Ya glanced at her. He didn't want to be classified as someone who was content with just dreaming.
"Although this incense candle burns slower than ordinary candles, it will burn out one day." The mother of the country looked embarrassed. "What the king doesn't know is that there is only a small part of the candle left in the incense god. I don't know what he will do then." Wake up."
"Wouldn't it still be useful for a few more years? Besides, if it's almost used up, just do it again."
"Mr. Qi, you can easily put it this way. Since this incense candle is not an ordinary candle, it is extremely difficult to find the materials."
"Well... after all these years, we'll figure out a solution when the time comes. However, we still need to make him prepare to face reality in advance."
When he said this, he glanced at the others quietly. Their sitting postures were also slightly straightened. What if the third task was that the God of Incense asked them to find a bunch of weird incense-making materials or make other messy things? It would be a big headache just thinking about it. But when he said this, Bai Ya suddenly thought of something and took out a small box. This box is made of pure white stone without any impurities. It has fine patterns, is smooth and beautiful, and feels cool to the touch.
This is what the god of incense gave them.
"Do you recognize this thing?"
Before opening the lid, the mother's eyes lit up. She suddenly leaned forward and asked quickly:
"Is this the soul-returning incense? He actually gave it to you? How much?"
"Just one." Jun Aoyan said, "He said that if we find the prince consort of Ge Shen Kingdom dead, we will give this thing to him. If you want to see a person dead, you will see a corpse. But we have heard it, It seems... tasteless?"
"You have to light it to smell it." Mother asked, "Can I open it and take a look?"
"Ah, yes, of course."
So the mother of the country moved the small white box in front of herself and slowly opened it. What appeared in front of me was a piece of incense the size of a bird's egg and ink-colored. She pinched it carefully, put it in her hand to examine it, and then brought it to her nose to smell it. After a long pause, she put the things back and closed the lid.
"He actually gave it to you."
"So, is it the real soul-returning incense?" Qi Huan said, "The incense god said that as long as it is not broken into several pieces, he must bring the living person back to him. Even if the body is really broken into pieces, he must bring a piece of it with him. Come back."
"This soul-reviving incense may not be as magical as you think."
