The strong wind blew past, stirring up a cloud of dust.

After about two days, the sound of wind and sand outside the pavilion became stronger and stronger, and the "creaking" sound could be heard continuously.

The walls of the inn made dull banging sounds under the impact of the wind and sand. Although the doors and windows were closed, sand and dust still seeped in through the gaps and filled the air.

At the hitching post in the stable, several horses neighed restlessly and pawed the sand with their hooves.

Ning Xiusu heard countless voices and finally regained consciousness, feeling tired as if he had slept for a long time.

When I slowly opened my eyes, I found that my vision was as dark as if it had been swallowed by the night.

His heart sank involuntarily, and he forgot about his injury. When he stood up suddenly, the wound on his chest was torn.

Ning Xiusu grimaced in pain, uttering a barely audible grunt before reaching out with a touch of disbelief and caressing his brow...

There was no bandage wrapped around him, and even now when he opened his eyes he could not see his hand in front of him, as dark as ink.

His brows couldn't help but droop slightly. What a joke, am I blind?

I heard the sound of wind chimes under the eaves and a few strange "clicks", which sounded like footsteps.

"Young man, don't worry."

An old voice sounded like the sound of wind brushing against bones.

Perhaps the visitor saw his worried look and said:

"The Jade Guizhi and the Heavenly Net Flower, after the fusion of the toxins, are quite special. Not dying is already a blessing from heaven."

Tianluo Flower...

There is a plant that is only found in Qi'an. Its stamens can be used as medicine. It turns out that this plant amplifies the poison of Yuguizhi.

Ning Xiusu subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound, and in the pitch darkness, he realized something.

He asked calmly, "Old man, are you the one from Luo Mansion?"

The voice coming from the right was extremely old and unpleasant, neither far nor near.

"My surname is Chou, you can call me Madam Jiang Zhu."

He didn't care about anything else and just asked, "Madam Jiang Zhu, are my friends here too?"

"That young man is downstairs. Compared to you, he's fine."

Madam Jiang Zhu's explanation was not very detailed, so Ning Xiusu did not say anything else.

Although he is blind, he still has spiritual power after all, so he should be able to observe something using the technique of the mind.

A faint light flashed across his fingertips, and as he instigated the technique, the moon incense in the copper furnace ignited into a wisp of smoke, which disappeared silently into the air and turned into an invisible trace.

This magnificent attic has upturned eaves, is decorated with luxurious windows and has wine flags fluttering in the wind.

Ning Xiusu felt the comings and goings. Although he didn't know where he was now, it was obvious that he was still in Mobei.

Is it an inn?

A thick ink spread out around, and the images flashing before my eyes formed the information.

Inside the room, there is a low table under a wooden window. The bed curtains are as thin as smoke, and the sunlight shines through the curtains, casting sparse shadows. It can be seen that the room is simple and peaceful.

The technique used at this time is not to see with the eyes, but to gather objects as a perspective.

But there is obviously some restriction covering this place, making it difficult to see the whole picture.

He was a little surprised, and raised his hand to gather the smoke, which turned into a fluttering butterfly and flew out of the window.

Unexpectedly, the investigation was fruitless.

Hanami was defeated downstairs...why can't I find any trace of him?

"young people."

Madam Jiang Zhu called out again, and Ning Xiusu subconsciously looked towards the source of the sound, the pitch-black direction.

According to the technique of mind, I could observe vaguely for a while. I saw that the old woman had a head full of silver hair, was wearing an old red robe, had a thin body, and had an unusually large head, which looked very strange.

"There is a magic circle here that was cast by the old woman. The mind magic will not be very effective."

Ning Xiusu realized later that there was indeed a magic formation under the entire inn, and the method was exactly the same as the Luo family's magic formation.

At this time, Madam Jiang Zhu was standing on a low table. Her hands were as dry as tree bark. She gradually picked up a scroll of paper and a small green talisman on the wooden table.

Ning Xiusu then realized that all the things he had on him were placed on the low table.

"From what the Xi family girl said, you can understand the Spiritual Encounter Book. You must be as special as your mother Yue Li."

Yueli...

Ning Xiusu's thoughts wandered for a moment, "Do you know my mother?"

I heard Madam Jiang Zhu speak as if recalling something:

"The former master of Longyuan was incredibly talented, becoming the master of Longyuan Pavilion at the age of eight. However, for the sake of a man, he dismissed his entire Haixu clan."

Madam Jiang Zhu's pupilless eyes were dark, but she looked even more blind than he. "She was sorry to the mermaid clan, but she married the Human Emperor as she wished. However, in the end, the Human Emperor did not guarantee her a peaceful and worry-free life..."

Ning Xiusu understood the hidden meaning, "Madam Jiang Zhu, what do you want to say?"

"She is your mother. Actually, you should hate the Great Yan court even more than Haixu's former subordinates."

Madam Jiangzhu suddenly looked at him straight, her eyes seemed cold.

"But, in my opinion, you have no hatred."

Ning Xiusu lowered his eyes slightly, as if he had no emotion:

"Hatred... doesn't change anything."

"Young man, the Dao is ruthless. If you can break through this level, it will be a blessing for the Eastern Wasteland."

Ning Xiusu ignored her mocking sigh and asked:

"Madam Jiang Zhu, you are a formation cultivator of the Luo family. Why are you helping the Xi family? And you know so much about the past of Longyuan Pavilion."

"There are many cultivators of formations in the world. His Luo family simply failed in alchemy and turned to cultivating formations. But now the Luo family has fallen to such a state. Apart from Luo Zhengming back then, no one else has practiced the art of formations..."

The old woman's huge head stood on her neck, her face full of wrinkles and expressionless.

"Luo Zhengming saved my life back then, so I stayed at the Luo family to help him secure the formation. Actually, I'm not a member of the Luo family."

He thought of the few words he had vaguely heard, so he asked:

"I guess Madam Jiang Zhu is also an old member of Longyuan Pavilion. Could it be that she, like Mo Chifei, wants to restore the country?"

"Mo Chifei and I are old acquaintances, and I don't have any other intentions... As for the ambition to restore the country, it's just his obsession."

Ning Xiusu got off the couch and said, "Oh, so you're not collaborating?"

"I only care about whether he can open Qi'an's tomb."

"After all, it's related to the Spiritual Meeting Book again..."

His posture was slender but casual, and his tone was nonchalant.

Madam Jiang Zhu hunched over, took a few steps toward him, and asked:

"Compared to the Spiritual Meeting Book, this old woman has other questions,"

She paused and looked at him warily:

"Not only have you seen the two volumes of the Spiritual Encounter Book, but you can also command the Nine Domains Order. So, do you understand the Nine Domains Order?"

Ning Xiusu said calmly, "I don't know, but if Madam Jiangzhu knows anything, please speak up."

Madam Jiangzhu's pale eyes seemed to have no pupils, and staring at someone without blinking was always frightening.

"The Order of the Nine Realms is a possession of the Yue Witch. It concerns a prophecy made a hundred years ago, which foresaw a catastrophe in the realm, with all things collapsing in an instant."

Ning Xiusu didn't understand: "What is Yue Wu?"

"The Yue witch came from overseas, skilled in exorcising ghosts. He disappeared three hundred years ago, and the world only thought he had become a ghost fairy."

The wrinkles on the old woman's face were as rough as tree bark. She turned her head and asked cautiously:

"Young man, have you ever seen Yue Wu?"

Three hundred years ago...

Ning Xiusu inexplicably thought of the snake and the strange corpse in its belly.

After a moment, he replied, "No."

Madam Jiang Zhu seemed very nervous. "How did this thing end up in your hands? Where did you get it from..."

"There should be more than one Nine Domain Order. This one is on the boat."

"Ship? What ship?"

Listen to Mrs. Jiang Zhu's digging deep into the matter.

Ning Xiusu said casually, "I'm afraid I'll have to ask the people who went to the Sea Ruins with me."
