She just felt a little ridiculous, "Who would have known that I stayed in the dungeon for twenty or thirty years, and those people took my blood to control the spiritual treasure. But I gradually learned that they were one of the outer forces of the Neon Sect, The person who interrogates me every day is named Fang."
Zhao Ning's expression moved slightly, but he didn't expect that they were connected by such a coincidence.
Ting Lan said, "His master is an elder from the outer sect of the Niguang Sect. They seemed to want to use a certain power to awaken the ancient bloodline, but they have not been successful. My Evil-Repelling Cloud Seal can restrain those powers, so they used me to The blood is used to drive the evil-dispelling cloud seal."
"It wasn't until one day that something happened to Manager Fang and he hadn't been here for a long time. Then I regained some strength, took the opportunity to fight back, and finally obtained the evil-dispelling cloud seal, and then escaped from the water prison."
"However, I was imprisoned for a long time, and my body and cultivation were unable to recover. Later, I found a fisherman to take me to a safe place."
"I heard that there is a gathering place for mortals in that mountain called Yuanming Village."
Zhao Ning suddenly understood. She remembered that the fisherman said that he once sent a girl to Yuanming Village. Later, the girl ran away and said that it would be a great thing to return to Jiuzhou.
"It's such a fate!" Yue Shengxian said curiously, "Then you should come to our Yuanming Village at that time."
Ting Lan said with a little embarrassment, "Actually, I have heard about Yuanming Village before when I was in my family. They said that Yuanming Village seems to be just an ordinary gathering place for mortals, but in fact they are all aliens, and they are The stranger, who is far beyond the realm of cultivation, asked us to be careful. Therefore, I did not dare to go deep into Yuanming Village at that time."
Yue Shengxian didn't care and said with a smile, "There are indeed many strange people in the village. I always thought that I was the only ordinary person in the village. Later, they said that I was not ordinary either, saying that I often picked up people from outside. Why is this so unusual? They just want me to be like them."
Yue Shengxian didn't know what he thought of, but his originally high mood dropped instead.
"It's just that sometimes picking people up may actually harm them."
Zhao Ning looked at her, "Did you think of that person again?"
"Yeah, I don't know if that guy Shang Xia is still alive in that damn place. My aunt's cultivation base hasn't been established yet." Yue Shengxian murmured.
But Ting Lan next to her was stunned. She looked at Yue Shengxian in disbelief, "Who did you just talk about, Shang... Shang Xia?"
"Yes." Yue Shengxian looked at her strangely, "You know him."
"He is my friend. I could never find him because I fell into the hands of the Neon Sect."
Yue Shengxian was even more shocked, "Are you the person he wants to find when he is dying?"
The two looked at each other in disbelief, but Zhao Ning's calmness seemed a bit out of place.
"Which ghost place did you just say he went to? What about dying and what about not living?" Ting Lan was extremely nervous.
Yue Shengxian said, "He was sent to the Forbidden Land of Extreme Demons in Congzhou by his enemies, but Zhao Ning said that it was probably not the enemies, but rescuing him. I also thought that one day, I would go and get him out of that ghost place." come out."
"The Forbidden Land of Extreme Demons?!" Tinglan couldn't suppress her panic, "Isn't that a place where ancient demonic shadows are raging?"
Zhao Ning looked at Ting Lan's complicated struggling expression and thought that the relationship between the two was not ordinary. She said, "If you want to save him, go ahead."
Ting Lan turned to look at Zhao Ning, "But you..."
Zhao Ning smiled and said, "I may live in Yuanming Village for a while. Maybe, when you come back, I will remember everything before."
Probably because she was very anxious to save Shang Xia, Ting Lan agreed after hearing what Zhao Ning said.
Just as he was about to fly away in the air, he was suddenly hugged by Yue Shengxian, "Sister Fairy, please take me there too. I want to personally apologize to him for causing him to go there."
"But..." Ting Lan hesitated, Yue Shengxian was just practicing Qi.
"I have a magic weapon." As he said this, Yue Shengxian took out his magic bag and found all kinds of magic treasures, including a heavenly magic weapon that was sleeping soundly.
Ting Lan was even more shocked. After Yue Shengxian repeatedly promised that he would "never hold back" and "retreat immediately if there is danger," Ting Lan agreed.
They said goodbye to Zhao Ning, and the crowded and noisy boat suddenly became quiet.
Zhao Ning didn't care and continued to the southeast coast in the boat.
Outside Yuanming Village, Zhao Ning stood at the entrance of the village for a while, feeling a bit nostalgic.
"Hey, where did you come from? Why don't you go to the village?" A voice came from behind. Zhao Ning turned around and saw that it was Pingshan's uncle. When he saw Zhao Ning, he was stunned for a moment, then came over happily, "Xiao Zhao Ning, it turns out you are back. Look at the change in your aura, old man." No one reacted."
He strode over with a shovel on his shoulder, looked Zhao Ning up and down, "It's really good, not too haggard."
"Come on, come on, come back quickly. A few days ago, there were people in the village talking about you." The old man took Zhao Ning into the village. As soon as he entered, everyone near the village noticed the noise and came out to take a look. Seeing that it was Zhao Ning, they all responded enthusiastically.
Some people asked after you, some people said that there is a good place in Yuanming Village outside, and you still want to come back. Some people said that Shengxian came back before, and she left when you saw you, and she even left you a letter.
Zhao Ning responded with a smile, "I met Sister Shengxian on the island."
"That's good, that's good." The villagers smiled, "Let's go to the house to rest. Shengxian's house is still there."
Granny Luo was not in Yuanming Village, so Zhao Ning stayed quietly in the village, cleaning and cooking every day, as if everything had gone back to the time when she was a mortal.
After a few days, Granny Luo came back.
When she saw Zhao Ning, she wasn't too surprised. She just smiled and said, "Xiao Zhao Ning, you're back."
Zhao Ning came forward to greet her, bowed and said, "Thank you to Grandma Luo for her kindness in rebirth."
But Granny Luo waved her hand, "Hey, why do you say it is so serious? Granny Luo, I just know a few useless divination. The only one who can really make you survive is yourself."
Zhao Ning also laughed with her.
Grandma Luo pulled her and said, "Come on, it's going to rain heavily. Please help me first."
A lot of elixirs were dried in the yard, and Zhao Ning helped Granny Luo clean them up.
Just as I was packing up inside the house, heavy rain fell from the sky.
Zhao Ning looked at the rain curtain, and the whole sky seemed to have a big hole. Grandma Luo made some hot tea by herself.
"Zhao Ning, have a sip of hot tea. The weather has changed so much. It might snow soon."
"It won't snow in June." Zhao Ning smiled.
"That's not certain." Granny Luo said with a smile, "The way of heaven is unpredictable, so you can do whatever you want."
Zhao Ning did not answer. These days, she understood the magic of Granny Luo very well, and she did not refute her words.
"Did something happen when you came back this time?"
Zhao Ning looked at her, then slowly put down the teacup, and knelt down to plead.
"Hey, hey, Xiao Zhao Ning, what are you doing? Get up quickly."
Zhao Ning said, "Grandma Luo, Zhao Ning knows that you have great supernatural powers and wants to ask for a favor. Do you know how to find people after reincarnation?"
This actually stopped Grandma Luo.
"Reincarnation?" Granny Luo sat down and said, "Zhao Ning, this reincarnation is the natural law of heaven. Under reincarnation, if there is no support from the original heart, the person in the past life will not be the same person as before."
"Zhao Ning knows." Zhao Ning whispered, "I am not interfering with reincarnation, I just want to confirm one thing. One thing that is very important to me."
Granny Luo looked at Zhao Ning blankly, her clear eyes filled with determination, which made people feel a kind of stubbornness that could not be resisted. Granny Luo sighed and reached out to help Zhao Ning up.
In the end, Granny Luo was moved by Zhao Ning's attitude. After a while, Granny Luo stood up and entered the back room. Soon, she took out an oil lamp. The oil lamp was already old, but Zhao Ning clearly understood. This oil lamp is not an ordinary thing.
Zhao Ning stood up and went to greet her. Granny Luo handed the oil lamp to Zhao Ning's hand.
"This oil lamp can only be burned once. It needs the breath of the reincarnated person's previous life as a light to guide him on the way to reincarnation." Granny Luo handed the oil lamp to Zhao Ning, "But no one knows what a person's reincarnation will be like. How long will it take? The reincarnation may be at the moment of his reincarnation, or it may span time and space. You have to be mentally prepared."
Zhao Ning smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, mother-in-law, I am a demon now, and I can still live for hundreds of years."
Zhao Ning held the oil lamp and was very pious, but Granny Luo looked at her and sighed silently.
After a while, Granny Luo asked, "What if the answer is not what you want."
Zhao Ning was silent. The answer, what answer she wanted, Zhao Ning actually didn't know very well until now.
She only knew that she wanted to see that person again, no matter how she acted, she clearly understood that there were many people in this world waiting for a person named "Zhao Ning" to really wake up, but she wanted to be willful once.
Zhao Ning whispered, "Actually, I don't have an answer. I just want to fulfill an obsession."
"Okay." Granny Luo sighed again. She knew that Zhao Ning would do it no matter what. She stretched out her hand and stroked the hair on Zhao Ning's temples, which was the compassion of the elders for the younger ones.
"It doesn't matter, Xiao Zhaoning, as long as you follow your heart, you will definitely find it."
"Yeah." Zhao Ning smiled.
"Go back quickly." Granny Luo said, "It's getting dark and it's really going to snow."
Zhao Ning responded and left the place holding the oil lamp.
In the night, there were indeed snowflakes falling slowly. Zhao Ning walked in the snow and looked up at the sky, but it was only blurry.
When Zhao Ning's figure disappeared completely into the darkness, Granny Luo still watched Zhao Ning's leaving figure.
"We've still come this far." Granny Luo murmured.
At this moment, a figure walked out of the darkness, "Maybe it's destined."
Granny Luo turned around and saw the man in the darkness wearing a dark earth-patterned robe, which made him look a little depressed.
"I told you a long time ago that reincarnation cannot interfere, otherwise you yourself will be involved."
"I know...but I can't bear to part with it."
Zhao Ning returned to the hut. She lit the oil lamp, but it did not light up until Zhao Ning put Fang Heng's breath wrapped in demonic power into the oil lamp.
The aura in the oil lamp was lit, but it was just like an ordinary oil lamp without any change. This meant that Fang Heng had not yet come to the world.
Zhao Ning looked at the oil lamp and sat there all night, her mind empty.
Until the next morning, when the flame of the oil lamp was on like a permanent lamp, Zhao Ning returned to his original life.
Zhao Ning reintegrated into Yuanming Village. The strangers in Yuanming Village took good care of Zhao Ning. Gradually, Zhao Ning also became a part of Yuanming Village. Watching the people coming and going in Yuanming Village, she felt that every day It’s the same work and laughter.
Time passed little by little, and thirty years passed in the blink of an eye.
It's probably because the clam demon's lifespan is longer than that of humans. Even after thirty years, she still hasn't changed much.
On this day, after Zhao Ning helped the villagers process the Heavenly Candle Grass, he opened the door and saw a spiritual light suddenly flying outside. It was the aura lit by an old oil lamp. The fleeting spiritual light meant that people in those days Reincarnation has come to this world.
Zhao Ning chased the aura and ran all the way to the shore of Daze, watching the aura go north.
Zhao Ning knew that the answer she had been waiting for for fifty years would finally be revealed.
She took the oil lamp, said goodbye to the villagers in Yuanming Village, and set off on her long journey again.
The ever-bright flame of the oil lamp guides the direction of the reincarnation of the spiritual light body.
But Zhao Ning is just an ordinary clam demon, unable to leap thousands of miles in an instant, so he drifts in a small boat in the swamp, and the obstacles and difficulties encountered on the road can be ignored.
Three years later, Zhao Ning came to an island in Ningluo Daze. This island was close to Chongshan and was a gathering place for low-level cultivators and mortals.
Zhao Ning's entry did not cause much disturbance. Zhao Ning walked in the city for a long time and could not find the reincarnated person, but the direction pointed by the oil lamp was here.
Zhao Ning had a bad premonition in her heart. She walked absentmindedly in the market, listening to the noise on the street and the mortals fighting over food.
There was a lot of noise, which attracted people nearby to watch.
