Listening to what the fatty said, it wasn't impossible.
When we came out of Chiyou's tomb, we happened to meet the young Daoist from Mount Longhu in the woods.
I remembered that I had tricked him to return to the sect. Maybe he didn't find any trace of his martial uncles when he returned, so he became suspicious.
From this, it seemed that the people from Mount Longhu had come to me for this matter.
But on second thought, the conflict between me and Mount Longhu wasn't limited to just this one or two times. Once there were enough lice, one wouldn't be afraid of an itch. Soldiers come, generals will deal with it.
Thus, I waved my hand, indicating that we shouldn't talk about it for the time being.
After talking for a while, everyone dispersed. Before leaving, Zhang Kanwen glanced at me as if he wanted to say something.
I knew what he wanted to ask, but I didn't have much information about it.
Tomorrow, we would have to use the evil spirit to save Wang Li. That was why I had to promise him that I would tell him after I finished reading the materials so that he could be prepared.
After Zhang Kanwen left, I called the evil spirit into the room and asked him how confident he was in saving Little Wang Li.
When I mentioned this matter, the evil spirit's face changed.
He looked at me with a smile and said, "If there are no abnormalities, I will definitely be able to retrieve the last wisp of soul.
But... "
Halfway through his words, he looked troubled. I hurriedly asked him, so he continued, "This time, I need to leave for a period of time to recover my strength. I can't accompany you."
Then, he cupped his fists at me and looked at me as if waiting for my decision.
Although his face was a little cold, I knew that he must want to recover his strength as soon as possible.
To him, Little Wang Li's life might not be important. Recovering his strength was the top priority.
His way of thinking seemed to me to be quite reasonable, and I didn't mean to reproach him.
From what he had said, he was ready to leave after saving Little Wang Li.
I asked him why he was in such a hurry.
After listening to me, his face returned to its previous cold expression and he explained to me.
The Kui Ox skull we brought back was to make a Kui Ox altar similar to the one in the Goddess Temple. The evil spirit had to go through the Kui Ox altar to enter Little Wang Li's chest.
Then, he absorbed the last wisp of Chi You's soul in the Nine Underworlds. Before he recovered his strength, he couldn't leave the Nine Underworlds. That's why he said goodbye to me.
After saying this, I felt both happy and worried.
He was glad that little Wang Li was finally able to fully recover this time and escape the control of the black smoke ghost mask.
In this way, the lineage of Mount Wen could be passed on. This also reduced a lot of Zhang Kanwen's burden.
The worrisome part was that I didn't know if the sacrificial evil spirit would be in any danger when he returned to the Nine Hells. He was my most reliable helper, and I would need his help in many things in the future. I definitely couldn't lose him.
Thinking about this, I asked him, "How dangerous is this trip to the Netherworld Meeting?" He shook his head and didn't say anything else.
The more he acted like this, the more uneasy I felt.
If he didn't go, he wouldn't be able to save Little Wang Li, and he wouldn't be able to restore his strength. Or if he went, he would be afraid of being in danger. It was hard to choose between the two.
I didn't know what to say, so I sat on the bed, feeling very upset.
The sacrificial evil spirit didn't linger in my room and quietly left.
Before he left, he told me to find him tomorrow morning to discuss the preparation of the sacrificial altar.
The next day, I got up early. First, I went to check on Little Wang Li. He was still sleeping, so I didn't wake him up. Instead, I gently untied his clothes and observed the condition of his chest. After confirming that it hadn't worsened, I left the room.
At this time, Zhang Kanwen came to help Little Wang Li recuperate. Seeing me come out of the room, he asked, "Li 'er, are you awake?"
I shook my head and pulled him to the living room to sit down. I asked him about Little Wang Li's recent situation.
After listening to me, he told me about Little Wang Li's condition in detail. Combined with what I had just seen, Little Wang Li had gotten better recently.
However, in the end, Zhang Kanwen sighed and said, "I really hope that this is the last time I'll help him recuperate."
Then, he turned to look at me, his eyes full of hope.
I had seen the amount of effort Zhang Kanwen had spent on Little Wang Li for the past year.
He had long regarded Little Wang Li as his own child. This was completely different from Zhang Kanwen, who had said that he wanted to get rid of Little Wang Li. It really moved me.
While we were talking, Wang Kun and his wife came in.
When they saw me sitting on the sofa with Zhang Kanwen, they were overjoyed.
Wang Kun immediately rushed over and grabbed my hand tightly. Tears welled up in his eyes. "Mr. Zhou, when did you come back? Why didn't you tell me that I was going to pick you up?"
As soon as I said that, Wang Kun's wife asked, "Mr. Zhou, did you bring the things back?
Is there hope for my son? "
After Wang Kun heard that, he immediately turned around and winked at her, signaling her to shut up.
She was shocked. She lowered her head and didn't speak anymore.
Seeing that, I understood. Zhang Kanwen must have told them that I had gone to find the Kui Cow. That was why Wang Kun's wife had asked that question.
I understood his wife's reaction. I knew what Little Wang Li meant to them, so I didn't mind it.
On the other hand, I was touched by Wang Kun's actions. Originally, when we had gone to Tower Village, we had been prepared to die. Although I hadn't told anyone in the shop about this, Wang Kun had probably sensed it when he had sent me off at the airport.
That was why Wang Kun had asked me if there was anything wrong instead of asking about the Kui Cow. It comforted me.
I asked them to calm down first. Then, I told them that I was going to build the Kui Cow Altar. Finally, I comforted them. "If nothing unexpected happens, Little Wang Li will be cured this time."
After hearing that, the two of them shed tears of gratitude. They immediately wanted to kneel and kowtow to me.
Since ancient times, only the Heaven, Earth, and Master have been bowed to by others. How could I let them bow to me like that? I quickly stopped them.
Wang Kun's face was unusually excited. He immediately called his uncle, Wang Yongjun, to tell him that I had returned.
Less than half an hour after I hung up the phone, Wang Yongjun rushed over. The first thing he did when he saw me was to ask if there were any injuries.
Wang Yongjun was indeed a businessman. His method of winning people's hearts was really brilliant.
I waved my hand to show that I was okay. Then, he asked if there was any change in Little Wang Li's situation.
I told him what I had told him, word for word. Then, he calmed down.
At the same time, the evil sacrificial spirit came out and stood not far from me. He didn't utter a word.
Seeing this, I remembered what he had told me last night. However, there were many people here, so it wasn't good to discuss this matter.
In the end, Wang Yongjun's eyes were sharp. He saw the slight change in my face. He called Wang Kun and his wife downstairs to prepare breakfast for us.
After everyone left, the evil sacrificial spirit came over.
I called the fatty and Zhang Kanwen over to discuss this matter.
In this matter, the evil sacrificial spirit had the absolute right to speak. However, when I asked him how to build the Kui Cow Altar, he looked puzzled and said that he didn't know.
This surprised me. However, I suddenly remembered Liu Ruxu, who was still hiding in the ancient scroll with the green lamp. He was the one who had built the Kui Cow Altar in the Holy Mother Temple.
Thinking of this, I immediately summoned Liu Ruxu.
A few seconds later, Liu Ruxu appeared in front of me.
This was the first time I had seen him after coming out of the underground palace. I didn't expect that his soul had already solidified. It seemed that he had recovered well in the ancient scroll with the green lamp.
As soon as he saw me, he bowed and greeted me, "Master." Then, he asked me why I had summoned him.
I didn't reply to him and just introduced Zhang Kanwen, who was sitting next to me, to him. Then, I told Zhang Kanwen about Liu Ruxu's identity.
Zhang Kanwen immediately stood up and cupped his hands towards Liu Ruxu. "So it's a senior from Mount Longhu. My apologies."
Seeing this, Liu Ruxu cupped his hands in return, saying that the past wasn't worth mentioning.
I gestured for Liu Ruxu to sit down. Then, I asked him about the Kui Cow Altar.
From his mouth, I learned that the Kui Cow Altar had been found in an old book in the library when he was still at Mount Longhu.
The book had introduced the use of the Kui Cow Altar. As we had guessed, the Kui Cow Altar could connect two unrelated places to achieve the purpose of shrinking the ground into inches.
According to him, it wasn't difficult to build the Kui Cow Altar, but to connect the two places, we had to first find something in that place to act as a attraction. Only then could the Kui Cow Altar be truly effective.
I roughly understood what he meant. In other words, if we wanted to communicate with the world in little Wang Li's body, we had to find something that existed in little Wang Li's chest to act as a guide.
However, we clearly knew that the deep place in little Wang Li's chest was the Nine Nether. How could we go to the Nine Nether as a living person?
