Chapter 27 The Return of the Soul

After "Zhong Xiangqiao" neighed unwillingly, it turned into a cloud of black air and slowly dissipated.

Du Bo supported his body with his sword to prevent himself from falling down.The moment he stabbed the sword into the monster's eyes, he seemed to see a ray of golden light burst out from the monster's eyes and enter his body again.He could clearly feel the direction of this golden thread in his body - a cauldron filled with golden light.

Before Du Bo took a closer look, he couldn't hold it anymore.

Ji Xuanjing stepped forward to hug the fainted Du Bo at the right time, and said softly, "Take a good rest."

After finishing speaking, he easily carried Dubo on his shoulders and placed him on the sofa in the living room, while he turned around and walked towards the inner room.

It was still the children's room, but it was different from the clean appearance seen before. At this time, the door frame of the children's room had become blackened, and the door was covered with red palm prints.The palm prints were big and small, probably left by the two evil spirits who had just been dealt with in the living room.

Ji Xuanjing turned the handle and opened the door easily.

It was the same room, same layout, only this time, there were two children in the room.

Ji Xuanjing walked over and sat down beside the boy: "Has anyone ever broken in?"

The boy shook his head obediently. After seeing Ji Xuanjing sit up, he carefully moved to Ji Xuanjing's side like a lost lamb, and buried himself in Ji Xuanjing's arms to seek support.

Ji Xuanjing didn't dodge either, and let the boy hug his arm like this.

"You did a good job." After hesitating for a while, Ji Xuanjing finally put her hand on the boy's head and rubbed it slowly.

As if encouraged, the boy buried his head deeper, and boldly grabbed the corner of Ji Xuanjing's clothes.

"Sister, sister..." The head in his arms muffled, with fear and expectation in his immature voice.

Ji Xuanjing noticed that even at this time, the boy's left hand was still tightly grasping the teddy bear, never letting go.

"She'll be back soon." Ji Xuanjing reached out to take the teddy bear, but the boy subconsciously tried to protect it again, raised his head from his arms and bared his teeth.

Seeing Ji Xuanjing's face, the boy put away his sharp teeth and handed the teddy bear to Ji Xuanjing hesitantly.

The two were sitting on the lower bed of the bunk bed, and the person lying on the upper/lower bed was Zhong Xiangqiao's eldest daughter, Chen Nan, whom Du Bo and Ji Xuanjing saw that day.

But at this moment, her eyes were closed tightly, her whole body was terribly cold, and her complexion was pale, like a corpse.

The boy standing under the bed was not tall enough to see what was going on above, so he could only stand on tiptoes and keep looking up.

Ji Xuanjing held the teddy bear and muttered something.

A transparent figure appeared beside the bed, it was Chen Nan.

"Go back, go back." A golden thread came out from Ji Xuanjing's fingertips and wrapped around Chen Nan's soul, guiding her back to her body step by step.

Another line of words appeared on the big cauldron in the living room: Daughter of the Chen family, with hundreds of merits and virtues.

After confirming that Chen Nan's soul had returned to her place, Ji Xuanjing gently picked her up from the bed.The boy who kicked and stood aside anxiously wanted to hold Chen Nan's hand, beckoning him to open the door.

The boy kept shaking his head, shrinking back in fear.He doesn't want to open the door, there is a ghost outside the door, it will bite him, it hurts.

Ji Xuanjing was a little impatient, he urged, and he was already standing by the door.

The boy was frightened and cried.He stood there, holding the teddy bear tightly with both hands, crying loudly with his little face turned up to the sky, with no intention of stopping at all.

"Shut up, don't cry." Ji Xuanjing's head hurt from the noise.

There was no other way, Ji Xuanjing could only use some spells to break down the door.Then a rope was condensed from Gongli to tie the boy, and he dragged him out with himself.

"Go back and make up the cauldron again." Ji Xuanjing sighed annoyedly, not forgetting to turn her head and stare at the culprit.

He had already spotted those two ghosts when he came here last time.He thought that this family had no way out, but he found out that the boy was still alive, and the teddy bear he was holding...

Obviously, although the boy is alive, he has been with ghosts for a long time, and his flesh and blood have been devoured by evil ghosts, and his vitality is constantly losing.If things go on like this, he will gradually be assimilated into a ghost.

Ji Xuanjing placed a ban outside the boy's room to prevent ghosts from entering.Just in case, he made a second-hand preparation - put the tripod on.Once the restriction outside the door is broken, the boy will be pulled into the tripod, and the tripod will create illusions to confuse the evil spirits.Evil ghosts cannot enter the tripod, but if it is a ghost occupying the body of a living person, it will be ejected the moment it enters the tripod, and the tripod will protect the body of the living person.

Sure enough, the ban can only block one of them, but not the other.Ji Xuanjing killed two birds with one stone, successfully rescuing Chen Nan's body and protecting the boy from being harmed.

It's just that there are many restrictions on entering the tripod.Voluntary entry and voluntary exit are naturally no problem.But if the person who entered the tripod is unwilling to go out, the tripod will not be opened.If you want to get out, you can only destroy the tripod.

Just when Ji Xuanjing forcibly opened the door, she knocked Ding through a gap.The damaged tripod is unusable, so Ji Xuanjing needs to repair it when she goes back.Fortunately, for thousands of years, he has been very used to the work of repairing tripods, but it is time-consuming and laborious. Ji Xuanjing, who has always been pampered, hates this work.

Du Bo was still sleeping on the sofa, Ji Xuanjing walked over and put Chen Nan on the coffee table, and waved away the big tripod in the living room.

The boy cried and choked all the way, and never dared to open his eyes since he left the door, so he could only be dragged away by Ji Xuanjing.

After walking all the way, the expected pain did not hit, the boy carefully opened his eyes and found that the two ghosts in the living room had disappeared!

Sobbing softly, he walked to the tea table, sat on the ground next to his sister's body, and gently took Chen Nan's hand to calm down.

The only sound in the living room is Ji Xuanjing's cursing...

"Replenishing the cauldron, replenishing the cauldron, replenishing the cauldron, replenishing the cauldron, replenishing the cauldron all day long, has not replenished enough after thousands of years..." He couldn't drag Du Bo down by himself, so he could only wait here for Du Bo to wake up.

Idle is also idle, it is better to make up for it.

"It's a waste of my merits again." Ji Xuanjing twitched her lips, extremely aggrieved.

He stretched out the palm of his right hand upwards, and a medium-sized cauldron that could just be held in his hand appeared in his hand.There is also a slightly larger tripod, but slightly smaller than the big tripod in the living room before, which appeared on the ground.There is an obvious hole in the body of this tripod.

This cauldron is filled with golden liquid, but no matter how you move it, it will not shake, let alone overflow.

Ji Xuanjing took out a small bronze shovel from the left pocket, dipped some golden liquid from the cauldron and applied it on the hole, and glued the hole little by little.After a while, the layer of golden liquid disappeared on the tripod, and the hole in the tripod was still there.

Ji Xuanjing blurred another layer, and this layer continued to disappear, blurred again, disappeared again...

The first step in repairing the tripod is to fill the damaged place with merit.This step is very time-consuming. Depending on the degree of damage, it will take at least seven to seven 49 days for small ones, and years for large ones.

That's not all.The hole was repaired, but the lines on the tripod were gone.This second step is engraving.

After the pattern is carved, the tripod will be restored to its original appearance.But it's not over yet.The third and final step is to wrap the tripod again with merit, turning it from an ordinary bronze vessel into a magic weapon.

It's no wonder Ji Xuanjing doesn't like to spend so much time every day to repair.

Du Bo on the sofa next to him snorted, as if he was about to wake up.

Du Bo felt that he had a long, long dream, and the dream was bizarre.He seemed to have come to the ancient court, and in a blink of an eye he came to the altar again.Unable to grasp everything in the dream, Du Bo is just like a passer-by.

In the end, the screen stopped on the sharp knife.

The moon is about to rise, and the sun is about to set; I am tired of the hoop, and I almost perish in the state of Zhou.

Du Bo slowly opened his eyes, then quickly sat up and put on a defensive posture.He remembered that he was pulled into Chen Ge's house, met Ji Xuanjing, and a monster.

Yes, yes, monsters.Du Bo subconsciously touched his hand, wanting to pick up the bronze sword just now, but found nothing.

"Ah, you're awake." Ji Xuanjing noticed the movement here, still holding a small shovel in her hand, staring blankly at Du Bo.

"You, do you think of anything..." Ji Xuanjing muttered.

"What?" Du Bo frowned.He found that the surroundings had returned to normal, and the monster had disappeared.

"What's going on here." Du Bo found Chen Nan lying on the coffee table and the boy sitting on the ground.

"She was possessed by a ghost. I just lured her living soul back into her body, and then fixed her soul again."

Du Bo couldn't digest it for a while.He had indeed seen "that thing" with his own eyes, but now Ji Xuanjing actually said that it was a ghost.

"Where's Zhong Xiangqiao?" Du Bo decided not to think too much about it, and took the opportunity to dig Ji Xuanjing out of his little secret.

Du Bo found that since he just woke up, Ji Xuanjing was a little reserved, especially when facing him.Even a little too careful, and afraid.

Could it be that what I did just now scared him?

"She was already dead, without a physical body, and was directly killed by you. Now there are no ghosts here." Afraid that Du Bo would think of something he shouldn't, Ji Xuanjing was now as obedient as a quail, answering every question she had.

"Are you a celestial master?" Du Bo could only think of this possibility.

Ji Xuanjing shook her head: "I'm not a celestial master, I just..."

Looking at Ji Xuanjing's troubled little face, Du Bo finally relented.

"Let's go back first." Du Bo stood up, looked at the two children and thought about what to do.

"...Ping Nong."

"Huh?" Du Bo turned his head, "What are you talking about?"

"It's nothing." Ji Xuanjing breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, he didn't remember it.
