Chapter 257 Qinling Sacred Tree (16)
The two hugged each other tightly for a moment and then slowly let go of each other. At this moment, Ji Xiao suddenly noticed an abandoned document not far away. She walked closer and found that it was the information left behind by the previous group of people.
This tattered document records why Zhang Qiling came here and why he left, but after years of painstaking research, they still have not solved the mystery in his (or the Zhang family's) blood.
Ji Xiao looked at the information in her hand intently, her eyebrows slightly frowned, and a feeling of "as expected" surged in her heart. She felt that this must be related to the people she was going to investigate before, all of whom wanted to know the secret of immortality or wanted to obtain immortality.
But Ji Xiao could not accept what they did. After all, human experiments were illegal and violated the laws of nature. So, Ji Xiao made up his mind to eliminate them completely.
In fact, Ji Xiao went to Changbai Mountain with this group of people several years ago, but she met Zhang Qiling by chance on the way and was busy sealing the meteorite for nearly a year. Later, she accompanied Zhang Qiling in the search for lost memories, so that she gradually forgot the original purpose and had no time to take care of and investigate the specific location of this organization.
Now, Zhang Qiling has recovered most of his memories. Ji Xiao feels that the time has come and it is time to address the hidden danger behind him.
Therefore, Ji Xiao tightly grasped the key information in her hand, turned to look at Zhang Qiling, and asked softly: "Qiling, in the next few days, I may need to personally take care of the relevant matters of this organization. Do you want to go with me?" She looked at Zhang Qiling expectantly, as if to say: "Promise, promise."
"Let me take a look." Zhang Qiling said softly, then reached out to take the information from Ji Xiao's hand and began to read it attentively.
Time passed by minute by minute, and finally, he raised his head, his eyes gleaming, and slowly said: "I know these people, they are the descendants of Wang Canghai, belonging to the Wang family. They have existed for one or two hundred years, and it may not be so easy to find their traces, let alone eradicate them."
Ji Xiao did not show any surprise, as if she had expected such an answer. She continued to check whether there were other important clues left in the underground laboratory, and talked to Zhang Qiling at the same time: "It's okay, I know where their base is in the country. I went to Changbai Mountain to find them, but because I met you there, I forgot about them for a while."
Zhang Qiling nodded slightly, indicating that he understood. Then Ji Xiao checked the basement inside and out, including the walls used for fixing. She checked it carefully with her spiritual sense, but apart from the previous gains, she found nothing.
After a moment, she spoke again: "In my opinion, the place where they are hiding is probably the safest. It is difficult for others to find them and they can also use the meteorite for experiments."
After hearing this, Zhang Qiling pondered for a moment, then responded: "In that case, I can probably guess where they are hiding. Indeed, only there is no place that is easy to be discovered by others."
"Since there is nothing valuable here, let's go. After we go back, we can have a good rest for a while and then go look for them." Ji Xiao suggested.
"Okay." Zhang Qiling replied softly. He held the flashlight in one hand and took the item from Ji Xiao's hand with the other hand, then put it into the ring.
Then, he took out a wet towel from the ring and carefully wiped Ji Xiao's hands, as if he was protecting a precious treasure. After Ji Xiao's hands were wiped clean, he carefully wiped his own hands, then took Ji Xiao's hand and left the underground laboratory together. The two figures gradually disappeared into the darkness.
When the two came to the place where they were attacked when they first entered, they found that the man had already left. Originally, Ji Xiao had planned to take her back, but now that the other party had escaped, she could only shake her head helplessly.
So, Ji Xiao looked at the rope left on the ground, shrugged, and said lightly: "Let's go."
Because when she attacked the two people, Ji Xiao found that she still had a trace of rationality and could still be saved, but now it is hard to say, and it is unknown what will happen if someone else meets her next time, but this has nothing to do with them.
"Okay." Zhang Qiling had recovered all his memories at this time, and he no longer had any regrets in his heart. Therefore, he would obey Ji Xiao's words without hesitation.
After all, after the bloodline was purified, the only benefit it brought him was that he could live a few hundred more years. The most important thing was that the people he cared about would always be by his side, so he would never feel lonely again.
Ji Xiao has been practicing orthodox Taoist magic throughout her life. As long as she persists in practicing and constantly improves her skills, it will not be difficult for her to live a few hundred more years.
Because she has now cultivated to the Lingji realm in the realm of Refining Qi into Spirit, as long as she successfully passes the thunder tribulation and reaches the Jindan realm, living for another few hundred years is not a dream at all, and she is only in her 20s now.
After the two left the underground laboratory, they did not stay here for long, but left quickly. Before they stepped out of the inpatient building, Ji Xiao left a few disposable notes inside, which recorded the Rebirth Sutra that she and her master usually recited during morning classes.
These are the results of years of experimentation. Because spiritual power has been added to them, the effects are quite good. The effects are the same when used here, which is very good.
When they went out, they found that it was already daylight outside. The warm sunlight poured down, shining on the two people's bodies, dispelling the yin energy that remained on their clothes.
Zhang Qiling held Ji Xiao's hand tightly and walked towards the RV together. Ji Xiao was like a lazy and comfortable kitten, letting Zhang Qiling lead her outside, while she half-closed her eyes and enjoyed the comfort and pleasure brought by the winter sun.
This also made Zhang Qiling change from holding her hand to hugging her, and even his voice became softer.
After returning to the RV, Zhang Qiling carefully carried Ji Xiao to sit on the sofa, as if he was holding an invaluable treasure in his hands. Then, he picked up a cup, poured warm water into it, and placed it in front of Ji Xiao.
After that, Zhang Qiling turned around and walked to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for the two of them. He skillfully opened the refrigerator door, took out the necessary ingredients, and then started to work in an orderly manner.
When the delicious breakfast was placed on the table, Ji Xiao also looked up from the information. While enjoying the sumptuous food, she shared with Zhang Qiling the information she had just obtained from reading the information.
After finishing breakfast, Ji Xiao sorted out the information and put it aside, saying with emotion: "In order to pursue immortality, these people went to such great lengths to build a base in such a secret place, and they also harmed so many people."
Zhang Qiling reached out his hand and gently stroked Ji Xiao's hair, comforting her: "Don't worry, they can't escape."
Ji Xiao nodded slightly, but her eyes were unusually calm, and she didn't show any excitement or nervousness about facing a major action.
"Then let's wait until we have rested well before setting off." Ji Xiao said to Zhang Qiling in a calm tone.
Zhang Qiling smiled and responded, "Okay, let's go together. We will go back to Beijing now and have a good rest for a while." After that, he stood up, took Ji Xiao's hand, and went back to the bedroom to catch up on some sleep. Only by having a good sleep in bed can you get your spirit back.
