283 Fragrance
“If I help you find that Huang Bo you mentioned, how are you going to thank me?”
Initially, she thought that this was a malicious ghost, just like the one in Breeze Villa last time, that could be devoured for cultivation. Now that she knew that it was also a pitiful woman, she couldn’t bring herself to devour it.
However, help didn’t come free. She had to get something in return. After all, she wasn’t a philanthropist.
Of course, the thing she wanted in return was actually very simple for the phantom. It was Yin energy that could help her cultivate. In other words, as long as the phantom was absorbed into the Chain of Darkness, the Yin energy on its body would be stored inside for Qin Xi to use. This was also a function she discovered when she sent Tao Po away last time.
“As long as you help me, I’ll do anything you ask.” The phantom was not hesitant. Although it had nothing, it was willing to give up everything.
Qin Xi nodded. “What’s your name?”
“Liu Yun.”
“Liu Yun, the thing I want is very simple. I only want the Yin energy on you. I can feel the thick Yin energy on you. This is also the reason why you can still stay in this world. However, there’s something I don’t understand. Why do you have such thick Yin energy? You’re not a malicious ghost. Can you tell me the reason?”
Liu Yun thought for a moment and said, “I don’t know either. It might be related to that well. Back then, I threw myself into the well and committed suicide. After I died, I couldn’t get out for more than a year. Later on, the Yin energy in my body inexplicably became stronger and stronger, so I slowly climbed out of the well. Every time I go back when I’m about to dissipate, I’ll become stronger. Other than being unable to leave this place, I’m almost in control of this area. However, last year, that well was filled by a Daoist priest, so the Yin energy in my body decreased.”
“Well? Where is it? Can you take me to see it?” Qin Xi’s eyes lit up and she asked excitedly.
Liu Yun nodded. “Follow me.”
Qin Xi followed behind Liu Yun and happened to pass by the big hand that was holding the mud grass tightly. She looked down and saw that it was the driver. Seeing that his eyes were closed, she frowned slightly.
Liu Yun quickly explained, “He’s not a good person. He had evil designs on you. But don’t worry, I didn’t do anything to him. I just scared the wits out of him. He’ll wake up later.”
In fact, Liu Yun was very bored here. Occasionally, she would come out to tease passers-by. However, she had never killed anyone.
Qin Xi nodded. “I can tell that you didn’t kill anyone. That’s why I help you.”
Hearing this, Liu Yun was very glad that she followed her heart and did not do anything evil. Otherwise, she would dissipate eventually with regret.
The two of them came to the dark and dense forest. The deeper they went, the more they could smell the faint fragrance of agarwood in the air.
Liu Yun did not have a sense of smell, so she did not know. However, she had been here for ten years and knew everything about this place.
“You should be able to smell a faint fragrance coming from that well, right? It’s said that this fragrance has the effect of hypnotizing people. It’s fine if you inhale a small amount, but if you inhale too much, you’ll hallucinate. However, it’s not harmful now. Ever since the well was filled, this fragrance has almost disappeared.”
Actually, even without Liu Yun’s reminder, Qin Xi could still smell the unusual fragrance. Although it was very faint, she still noticed it.
Qin Xi felt that this fragrance was a little familiar, but she couldn’t remember what it was. She frowned and tried her best to recall. A fragrance with a hallucinatory effect…
She suddenly opened her eyes, which were filled with intense joy. She urged impatiently, “Quick, bring me there!”
