Grandpa looked at the tears in the corners of my eyes, and I tried to hold them back. He also saw that I was holding them back.
After shaking his head and sighing, he said sadly: "Your mother was sealed under Mount Tai at the passage connecting the underworld."
I suddenly exclaimed: "What? My mother was sealed underground in Mount Tai? Or in the passage of the underworld?"
"No, we haven't reached the inside of the passage yet. I did this to absorb the Yin Qi."
"I can guarantee that your mother's soul is still alive, but it seems that she is not as good as before in recent years."
"And before your mother fell asleep, she seemed to have separated a trace of her soul, and she didn't know where it went."
I didn't speak, but my mind immediately thought of my mother, the moment before I advanced in Changbai Mountain.
I seemed to have had a dream in which my mother mentioned that she was a trace of soul. Could that be it?
In order to be with me, my mother separated a piece of her soul and hid it in me for many years.
Could it be that the mother was missing this trace of her soul that prevented her from truly waking up for so many years?
Suddenly, this question came to my mind, and the more I thought about it, the more likely it was that this was really the case.
Looking at the strength of grandpa in front of me, he is not much weaker than grandpa. He should have been able to save his mother a long time ago.
What kind of poison is it? How can he make a royal master helpless?
I still asked what was on my mind: "What poison is in my mother? How can I enter the underworld passage?"
These are two questions. I don’t know if my grandpa will tell me. I just want to give it a try.
Grandpa turned his head slightly and looked at me for a while: "Do you really want to know?"
"think"
I answered sonorously and forcefully without any hesitation, showing my firm determination.
Grandpa seemed to be infected by me, and then he said: "I can take you in the passage."
"But this poison is not easy to remove. It requires several things to be fused together to be effective."
When I heard that there was something that could detoxify, I was still excited, and I seemed extremely excited at this moment.
"Then what exactly do you need? I can go find it, and I won't be afraid of traveling across thousands of mountains and rivers."
Grandpa frowned and said, "Unless you find a high-quality elixir, Yin Ning grass, or Longevity Fruit."
"Demon companion grass, Jiuqu spiritual ginseng, and a piece of soul-nurturing wood are also needed. This thing is a bit difficult to get."
A series of names that I had never heard of were announced by my grandfather, but I was unmoved.
Immediately afterwards, grandpa spoke again and continued: "After all these years, ever since your mother couldn't sleep."
"I started trying to wake her up. The poison in her body was not enough to threaten her life."
"But the strange thing is that there is a slight balance between this poison and her body."
"Once the balance is broken, your mother is likely to die. This is what is difficult to deal with."
"Do you know why your father disappeared? I don't know the details, but at least part of it was for your mother."
"After your mother was poisoned, your father came once, but I beat him up."
"I hate him for not protecting your mother, and I don't know where your father learned a secret technique."
"These things I just said, your father said these things can save your mother."
It suddenly dawned on me that my father had told my grandpa these things. Why was my father beaten by my grandpa again?
Is it just because grandpa is angry with father for not protecting mother? Maybe that's the main reason.
Now that I know these things can save my mother, I really want to get these things.
I heard my grandpa say again: "Your grandpa has also tried to find these things I mentioned above."
"Yin Ning Cao is just a medicine. It's hard to find. It seems like it only exists in the underworld."
"Perhaps these things may grow in places in the secret realm where the cold air is very strong."
"The Longevity Fruit, the effect of this thing, according to rumors, seems to be that it can refine the fruit to increase life span."
"This thing should have existed in ancient times. Ancient alchemists seemed to use this thing to refine elixirs of longevity."
"This so-called Nine-Tune Spiritual Ginseng is a spiritual grass transformed from the essence of heaven and earth. It is full of spirituality."
"It will transform into various animals from birth, maybe even into insects."
"And it can move freely. The most important thing is that it is good at digging into the soil and wood, and is extremely difficult to find."
"There is also the demon-companion grass. It is said that this thing only appears in places where there are demon beasts."
"The last soul-nourishing wood, if we can get a very small piece, it can calm the mind and nourish the soul."
"I have traveled to many places over the years and have only found two of the above items."
After grandpa finished speaking, he took out two things from his body and placed them on the table in front of him.
A beige-colored insect that looked soft and fat.
Just when I didn't understand what this bug was, I remembered what my grandpa just said.
A name echoes in my heart, Jiuqu Lingshen, this thing seems to change.
This fleshy worm is beige in color. Nine times out of ten, this worm is the precious ginseng.
I then looked at another thing, which was a round, emerald-green fruit, and another spiritual object.
This must be the longevity fruit. Unexpectedly, my grandfather has found two of them in so many years.
It seems that there are only two things missing that I need to look for, but the remaining three things are also making people scratch their heads.
Grandpa pointed at the meat worm and said, "This is the Jiuqu Lingshen. You can see that the meat worm has nine sections all over its body."
"Always carrying a spiritual energy, this state is exactly a change of Jiuqu Lingshen."
"The other one is the longevity fruit. Eating one can increase the life of an ordinary person by twenty years."
"Your father also looked for the other things, and even your grandfather looked for them."
"It's just that in the past few years, I don't know if he has been found. For this reason, I heard that he has entered several places."
"He went to the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum, went to the Gate of Hell in Kunlun Mountain, and even entered the underworld."
"In addition to looking for what he needs, I guess he's also looking for these."
It turns out that Grandpa had entered these places in an attempt to find something.
When I was in Changbai Mountain, my grandfather did not mention to me in detail the main reason why he entered these places.
But grandpa probably had his own reasons for not telling me, and I would most likely have to find it myself.
I looked at my grandpa, but after I opened my mouth, I hesitated to speak. For a while, I couldn't open my mouth to call out the word grandpa.
But grandpa seemed to see something, so he said, "What? I am your mother's father, and you don't even want to call me grandpa?"
I was stunned for a moment, with a slightly embarrassed look on my face, but I still didn't say anything, it felt weird.
At this time, grandpa said indifferently: "Aren't you still very stubborn in Kunlun Mountains?"
"At that time, you were poisoned by the Zombie King and you were dying. Who saved you?"
When I heard this, I raised my head suddenly and looked at the old man in front of me, but it was obvious that he was not alone.
But then I thought about it, and it seemed that I figured it out immediately. Even the emperor-level masters could change their appearance.
I looked at my grandfather for a long time, and then I asked uncertainly what I was wondering about.
"Are you the old man who saved me and removed the corpse poison for me?"
"What? Doesn't it look like it?"
Grandpa snorted and asked me back, and at the same time proved that he was the old man.
I completely dispelled my doubts and called out softly: "Grandpa"
