I live in Beihai Jun Nanhai [Rebirth]

Ji Qinglin looked at the person on the couch, and after a long silence, he suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly asked, "Then what if we pull out the pine needles?"

He remembered that Xie Wuyi said that when fighting against those people, once the pine needles were pulled out, they would die immediately. Does this mean that the soul sealing technique is lifted?

Chi Ruogu replied: "If the pine needles are pulled out before the body rots, the soul of the person who seals the soul will be reincarnated from the body after death, but once the body starts to rot, and then the pine needles are pulled out, even if the soul energy can also be released. It should have been damaged too."

Ji Qinglin was silent for a moment, then turned to look at Chi Ruogu and said, "Then if the soul element is damaged, is there a way to restore it?"

Just as Chi Ruogu was about to speak, his eyes suddenly fell on Ji Qinglin's waist.

Ji Qinglin was startled for a moment, then looked down, only to see the jade pendant on his waist flickering slightly at this moment.

Suspecting that his eyes were dazzled, he hurriedly took it off for a closer look, but the jade pendant had returned to normal without any response.

Xie Wuyi had always turned his back to them. At this moment, he realized that the conversation between the two of them was suddenly interrupted. He turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"

Ji Qinglin held the water mirror in his hand, hesitantly said: "It seemed to flicker just now."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Chi Ruogu as if seeking proof.

Chi Ruogu nodded: "I saw it too."

Xie Wuyi was startled, but he didn't show much surprise, he just nodded slightly, took the water mirror and tied it back to Ji Qinglin's waist.

Chi Ruogu didn't seem to have noticed the jade pendant on Ji Qinglin's waist before, as if he saw that it was a water mirror at this time, he frowned slightly and said, "Has the ancestor given the memory to their brothers and sisters?"

Xie Wuyi shook his head.

Chi Ruogu asked suspiciously: "Then why is the silk thread on it..."

As soon as Ji Qinglin heard it, he knew that he was wondering why the two silk threads disappeared, so he focused on the matter of Luming Villa.

After listening, Chi Ruogu was surprised and said, "You mean, pine needles were also found in Luming Mountain Villa?"

Ji Qinglin nodded, and said: "So I guess, the jade pendant can't show the location of the two of them, maybe it's because of the soul sealing technique?"

Chi Ruogu lowered his head and thought for a while, then said: "The art of sealing the soul can indeed block the connection between the soul and the outside world. If their brothers and sisters have been sealed and the connection between the soul and the memory is 'cut', Yupei can't instruct them naturally. s position."

Ji Qinglin nodded, it seems that his previous conjecture of reconciling Wuyi was correct, the problem is not memory, but Yizhu's soul essence.

The twins were not only abducted, they were probably also subjected to the technique of sealing their souls at the same time, which cut off their soul essence from the outside world. Because of this, the silk thread on the water mirror suddenly disappeared.

Thinking of this, Ji Qinglin asked again: "Then if we can find them, pull out the pine needles and release the soul essence to make them reincarnate, will the jade pendant be able to regenerate silk threads?"

Chi Ruogu shook his head and said, "I don't know, I can only wait until the time comes."

Ji Qinglin nodded, and asked again: "By the way, I haven't finished my question just now. If the soul element is damaged, is there a way to restore it?"

Chi Ruogu shook his head and said: "The soul is formed by the gathering of spiritual energy. Once it is broken, it will turn into spiritual energy and dissipate again. It is irreversible. This is like burning a human body, turning the flesh into ashes, and it cannot be restored."

Ji Qinglin felt a little disappointed, but he could only nod helplessly.

At this time, the ointment under the nose was almost gone, Ji Qinglin smelled the rancid smell one after another, and couldn't help covering his mouth and nose with his hands.

Xie Wuyi glanced at him, and said to Chi Ruogu, "Go out."

Chi Ruogu nodded, and the three of them returned from the stairs.

Out of the water pavilion, Ji Qinglin couldn't help but took a deep breath, but felt dizzy for a while, quickly closed his eyes and supported his head to stabilize his figure, Xie Wuyi immediately supported his arm and said: "But what's wrong? ?”

Ji Qinglin was dizzy for a long time, finally opened his eyes, shook his head slowly and said: "It's okay, maybe it's just because I've been stuffy inside for a long time, and my head is a little dizzy."

Seeing this, Chi Ruogu touched Ji Qinglin's wrist to feel his pulse, then nodded and said, "I'm afraid it was because I was really depressed just now, that's why I couldn't breathe well."

After finishing speaking, he looked up at the dense dark clouds in the sky, turned to Xie Wuyi and said, "Young Master Ji is not feeling well, and it looks like a heavy rain is coming this day, why don't you take a rest in the garden with the young master, later I will make some medicinal soup to help you smooth your Qi, it should improve."

Xie Wuyi looked at Ji Qinglin with a slight frown, his eyes full of worry, he did not hesitate to hear Chi Ruogu's proposal, and nodded in agreement.

Ji Qinglin smiled apologetically at Chi Ruogu and said, "Then I'll have to work."

Chi Ruogu didn't say any more, and led the two of them around the lake to a small vermilion pavilion deep in the garden.

The small pavilion is located on a high platform, and there are corridors and stairs in front of which turn upwards. There are several rockery boulders of different sizes scattered under it. There are many plantains planted around the rockery, and there is a huge plant near the corridor. Although it is late autumn, the osmanthus tree is still covered with golden osmanthus, and some osmanthus flowers fall with the wind, embellishing a piece of golden color under the tree.

The three of them climbed up the steps along the corridor, and as soon as they stepped into the small pavilion, they heard the sound of rain outside suddenly, hitting the banana leaves with a very rapid sound.

Chi Ruogu lit the low stove next to the small table in the house, cooked a pot of new tea, then straightened up and said, "Take a rest first, I'll go fry a bowl of medicine for Young Master Ji."

Ji Qinglin nodded and smiled, "Thank you."

Chi Ruogu nodded slightly, took down a paper umbrella from the wooden stand in the corner, left the two of them here, turned and closed the door and left.

Ji Qinglin looked around the room, he saw that the furnishings were very elegant, decorated with green plants everywhere, the tables, chairs, beds and beds were all spotless, it could be seen that the people who took care of them must have been very careful.

Xie Wuyi turned around and opened the door, then went to the window to set up the window, seeing that the bead curtains hanging in several places in the house had been blown by the wind, he turned around and asked, "Is this better?"

Ji Qinglin was startled, and then realized that he was ventilating the room.

At this time, the doors and windows were wide open, and a cool breeze mixed with water vapor passed through the hall, fresh and moist, Ji Qinglin's previous feeling of suffocation had long since dissipated.

Ji Qinglin felt warm in his heart, and said with a smile, "It's much better."

He walked up to Xie Wuyi and looked out from the raised window. The dense raindrops were falling everywhere in the garden. The pavilions and pavilions in the distance stood quietly in the rain, and the nearby plants and trees swayed with the wind. The fragrance gradually fades, but there is cinnamon as a substitute, there is movement in the stillness, which has a special taste.

Ji Qinglin's thoughts changed slightly, and he blurted out: "The rain beats on the sandalwood window, blows away the fine dust, and the scarlet is replaced by new clothes."

Xie Wuyi stood still for a moment, turned around and glanced at the swaying bead curtain, then looked at the steaming teapot on the low stove, and said, "The wind shakes the bead curtain, sweeping the osmanthus soul, and the green ants sink into the soup again."

Ji Qinglin's eyes lit up, he said something casually, but he didn't expect Xie Wuyi to match up so quickly, and even so well.

He recited these two sentences silently in his heart, the corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously, and he looked at Xie Wuyi with a smile and said, "It's okay, it's okay, it's lucky that you are protected by spiritual energy, so you don't have to go through reincarnation."

Xie Wuyi was slightly taken aback, and said, "What do you mean?"

Ji Qinglin raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Otherwise, the title of prodigy when I was young will change hands?"

Xie Wuyi knew that he was teasing again as soon as he heard it, so he shook his head helplessly, went to the desk and poured two cups of hot tea.

Ji Qinglin also sat down at the table, took a sip of the teacup, but he remembered the soul-sealing technique that Chi Ruogu just said.

Now, even though he already knew where the abnormality of those corpses came from, he still didn't know who the mastermind was, and he didn't know why he did these things.

Ji Qinglin looked down at the jade pendant on his waist, remembered the shimmering light it gave off when it was on the lower floor of the water pavilion, took it off and held it in his hand and asked, "It seemed to flicker just now at the bottom of the ground, do you know why?"

Xie Wuyi also looked at Yupei, shook his head and said, "I don't know, but it has reacted like this before."

Ji Qinglin said, "Oh? When?"

Xie Wuyi recalled for a moment, and said, "About once a month."

Ji Qinglin nodded. He thought it was a special phenomenon, but now it seems to be a common occurrence, nothing special.

He looked at the water mirror in his hand, and when he looked at it, his heart suddenly moved, and he raised his eyes and said, "Huh? I suddenly thought of a question. Chi Ruogu said that the technique of sealing the soul can only be used for people who are about to die, but the twins It's just that I don't have consciousness, and I haven't heard of any incurable diseases, right?"

It's not that Xie Wuyi didn't notice this point, he had already speculated in the water pavilion just now, when he saw Ji Qinglin mentioning it, he said, "People who are about to die don't necessarily have to be terminally ill."

Ji Qinglin was startled, and then his heart sank suddenly.

Because of those corpses, he had been associating dying people with illness before, but he forgot that making a person dying is not the only way to be seriously ill.

There are as many ways to die as there are "near-death" states.People can die of starvation, thirst, or blood loss, so as long as people are starved, thirsty, or directly bled to make them weak, to a certain extent, an ordinary person will also become a "dying person."

Ji Qinglin said: "So, doesn't it mean that everyone has the possibility of being sealed?"

Xie Wuyi said: "That's right."

Ji Qinglin thought for a while, and then said: "Since they have a way to take away so many people in Luming Villa in a short period of time, they have a lot of power, and they should have enough manpower. Judging from the corpses that Chi Ruogu inspected , The people they sent out to carry out the assassination were all terminally ill people before their souls were sealed, why is that?"

Xie Wuyi picked up the teacup and took a sip, saying, "For a terminally ill person, sealing the soul is tantamount to extending life."

When Ji Qinglin heard this, he immediately understood.

Although it is a bit laborious to find a terminally ill person, once found, using the soul sealing technique to keep his soul in the body, it will be like being cured for that person.

In the face of such "life-saving grace", the soul-sealed person is grateful, and it is not surprising that he has obeyed the words of the person who performed the spell.

Just as Ji Qinglin was thinking, he heard unhurried footsteps coming from the corridor outside. He recovered his senses and looked up at the door. He saw Chi Ruogu holding a bowl in one hand and holding on to the dripping umbrella with the other. It's at the door.

Ji Qinglin put down the jade pendant in his hand and got up to meet him, but he paused after taking two steps, staring straight at Chi Ruogu.

On his shoulder was a... bird?
