Chapter 97: The Whereabouts of the Soul-Restoring Pearl
After my cousin told me the preparation method, I felt inexplicably excited.
Maybe it’s because I can find the whereabouts of the Soul-Restoring Orb soon, or maybe it’s because I can learn new knowledge.
My cousin took out a piece of animal bone from the red plastic bag.
From the moment he walked in, the red plastic bag caught my attention.
That's because among all the bags he was carrying, there was only one red plastic bag.
And the piece of animal bone in front of me now makes me even more curious.
"What animal's bone is this? It looks like a skull."
I took the animal bones in my hands and kept looking through them.
After looking at it inside and out, it looked more like a skull bone.
I have heard from people in the village before that skulls are particularly evil things.
If it belongs to a yellow fox or a fox, it would be even more amazing.
Because these two species exist at two extremes.
They will remember anyone who has done them a favor and repay the favor for their entire lives.
But at the same time, they also hold grudges.
"You have some good sense, this is indeed a skull. Just as you thought, it is the skull of a yellow-skinned man."
When I heard what my cousin said, my entire back was soaked with cold sweat.
We still don't know how this yellow-skinned guy died. If we use his skull to perform a ritual, we will get into trouble in no time.
"Will this... be a bad thing?" I was a little scared.
My cousin smiled and said, "Soul searching is not a particularly good thing. If you can avoid it, try not to do it. If you have to do it, you can only do it once a month, otherwise it will be bad for your health. Don't worry about it for now, I will teach you how to do it. After you learn it, you have to control the amount yourself, don't blame me for not reminding you in advance."
I nodded, I roughly understood what he meant.
I followed my cousin and stood in front of the altar. He asked me to wash my hands with the water in the bowl placed next to the altar.
That water is holy water.
My cousin was chanting just now in order to purify the water, and soul searching requires a calm mind in order to find what you want, so your hands must be clean.
After washing my hands with that water, I felt full of strength.
I don’t know if it’s a psychological effect, but I think it’s very magical.
"Repeat after me." said my cousin beside me.
"The Supreme Star. He is always ready to respond. He drives away evil spirits and binds demons. He protects his life and body. He is wise and clear. His mind is at peace. His three souls are eternal. His spirit is not lost."
I know that the passage he recited is the mantra for purifying the mind.
I feel very fulfilled that I can learn the knowledge I have learned before while my cousin is teaching me.
But I didn't feel conceited and just followed him.
After finishing reading, he placed the all-purpose saber on the altar.
I knew it was for my blood.
"Use the saber to cut the middle finger of your left hand and drop a drop of blood on the animal bone." He ordered.
I did.
Afraid of missing every detail, I watched with wide eyes.
When the blood dripped onto the animal bones, a map immediately appeared on the bones.
The map looks familiar, it should be in this city.
I am not particularly familiar with the North, I only know this city deep inside myself.
But after all, I run a real estate agency here, so I have been to all the streets and alleys in the city, and naturally I am very familiar with this city.
The map was blood red, but there was a yellow dot that kept flashing.
And I can guarantee that the yellow dot is where the Resurrection Stone is.
Because the dot keeps moving, and I’m not sure whether the person holding it is Mingyan or not.
A normal person would not need the Resurrection Stone, so Mingyan stole the Resurrection Stone and most likely sold it.
"Can you tell where this is?" my cousin asked me.
I stared at the map carefully.
I am more familiar with this city than my cousin.
After looking for a while, I found the flea market.
"Are you sure?" My cousin looked at me.
I nodded.
Although I seldom go to flea markets, this is the only place that is recessed.
And this is exactly what the map shows.
Seeing the determined look, my cousin frowned.
I also think this matter is not simple.
If the thing is in Mingyan's hand, I can also find Mingyan through the Resurrection Pearl.
But if Mingyan sold it, there’s so much traffic at the flea market that I really wouldn’t be able to find it.
Not to mention that each soul search only takes half an hour to lock onto the target, which is already very tight in terms of time for me.
Plus the flea market traffic, and I can only soul search once a month.
It’s hard to say whether this thing will still be in this city by next month.
As long as there is my blood, the Soul-Restoring Pearl can be found naturally.
But the map is only such a small piece, so I have to search the entire world. I have to open the global map on the computer, zoom in and out, lock the target, and then when I search the soul again, the soul-returning bead may not be there anymore.
This is such a waste of time!
I was a little angry and kicked the sofa.
My cousin was also very unhappy, but he didn't vent it.
Dong Jing, who was watching us from the side, didn't dare to speak at this moment.
The whole living room fell into dead silence and none of us spoke.
It was not until it was completely dark that Dong Jing stood up and went to the kitchen to cook. My cousin and I were not in a better mood.
well……
I sighed.
Being depressed is not a solution. There must be other ways to help me break the curse.
The abbot said this when we left Gaoshan Temple.
But my thoughts lingered on the abbot’s last words, telling me not to provoke Mingyan.
What does this mean?
Isn’t Mingyan just a young man working in an antiques and cultural relics auction house?
Why can’t I provoke him?
My anger reached its peak, and I certainly wouldn't have provoked him if he hadn't provoked me first.
But now my things are gone, not to mention how important they were to me.
I spent 100,000 yuan to buy it. Why did he take my thing without saying hello? And I can't fight back?
I got angry when I thought about this, and I took out my cell phone to take a picture of the map on the animal bones.
No matter what, I have to get my resurrection bead back!
We will set off early tomorrow morning and find it back no matter what.
"Come and eat first. Only when you are full will you have the energy to give advice." Dong Jing's voice was very low, and she seemed afraid of disturbing us.
I turned my grief and anger into appetite and finished two large bowls of rice in one go.
Then I went to bed without taking a shower. At two o'clock in the middle of the night, I got up, took a shower, and prepared to go to the flea market.
It's okay when it's dark, but there will be more people after dawn, so I have to go there early, find a quiet place to stay, and see who took my resurrection bead.
