Chapter 92: Chapter 92: The mories of the Ancestors
Looking down at the pitiable Shuaishuai, Xia Xin thought of his skeleton being dug up from the ground and felt extrely distressed.
He turned to Jiangli and couldn’t resist saying, “Ancestor, could you help and let Shuaishuai see his parents one more ti?”
Jiangli turned her head and said indifferently, “Humans and ghosts walk different paths. The more they see each other, the more attachnts they’ll accumulate. Going there won’t be that smooth. Such matters, I believe, the old Taoist should have taught you.”
Xia Xin: “…He did teach , but…” He felt sorry for the child in his arms and looked at Shuaishuai, then gritted his teeth and said, “But Ancestor, Shuaishuai is still a child, and he died so pitifully. Can’t we help?”
Jiangli looked at Xia Xin’s pleading gaze, paused for a second as if she saw soone familiar.
But she couldn’t rember who that person was or where she had seen them.
A feeling of lancholy washed over her.
Jiangli stated calmly, “If you want to send him back, then send him back. Just make sure you can bring him back safe and sound.”
Xia Xin, having heard this, was excited for a second, then hesitated, “Ancestor, are you not coming with us?”
Jiangli humd, looking out the car window, “No, I won’t go. There’s a guest waiting for to return.”
Xia Xin said blankly, “A guest?”
Jiangli nodded, “If I’m not mistaken, it should be your boss.”
Wang Xinjun!
Xia Xin’s eyes widened abruptly as he suddenly rembered that Wang Xinjun hadn’t returned since leaving Jiaoyang Temple the day before.
He had no idea how his daughter was now.
Xia Xin was sowhat worried about Wang Xinjun.
That was soone who had helped him quite a bit over the years.
But looking at Shuaishuai in his arms, he couldn’t bear to let him down.
Thinking this, Xia Xin said, “Then I’ll take Shuaishuai ho. But, Ancestor, how can I let his parents see Shuaishuai?”
He was sowhat embarrassed.
With his cultivation base, he couldn’t do like Jiangli, who could let anyone open the Heavenly Eye whenever she wanted.
Hearing this, Jiangli took out a talisman and handed it to him, “Just burn it in the room when the ti cos.”
Xia Xin took it and saw that the talisman was very old, not like one drawn by Jiangli yesterday.
Instead, it seed to have been drawn a long ti ago.
Although the vermillion on it was still a bright red, the color of the paper showed its age.
Xia Xin asked curiously, “Ancestor, what is this talisman?”
“Rhinoceros Horn Talisman,” Jiangli said lightly.
Xia Xin was startled, “Rhinoceros Horn Talisman? I… I’ve never heard of it?”
“The living rhino dares not burn, igniting it produces an unusual fragrance, touching clothes and sashes, people can communicate with ghosts, have you heard of it?” Jiangli asked.
Xia Xin suddenly understood, “I’ve heard of that!”
“Hmm, this talisman is made by grinding a living rhino’s horn and mixing it with vermillion. Burning it allows communication with spirits and can briefly open the Heavenly Eye,” Jiangli said and then paused abruptly.
Seeing her like this, Xia Xin waved a hand in front of her, “Ancestor, what are you thinking about? Is there sothing wrong?”
“Nothing… It just occurred to that this talisman seems to be one I prepared for myself,” Jiangli’s eyes held a trace of sorrow.
Xia Xin felt very distressed, “Doesn’t the Ancestor have the Heavenly Eye? Why would you need this talisman?”
After a mont of thought, Jiangli looked out the car window, “Perhaps there are people the Heavenly Eye can’t see, but whom I very much wish to see.”
Xia Xin was stunned.
Wen Zishu, who had been beside them not daring to join such a topic, also couldn’t help but be taken aback, glancing at Jiangli through the rearview mirror.
Although Jiangli looked out the car window, her tone and expression when speaking were no different from usual.
Still, both Wen Zishu and Xia Xin felt that there was an indescribable feeling.
It was very heartbreaking.
