Chapter 107 Your whole family is a ghost
"It's here!" Xihe took out a pure white and translucent pearl from the secret compartment behind the statue, which emitted a bright light in the deep underground palace.

"Is this...put there by you?" Xiao Mingxuan felt that the bead looked somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it for a moment.

Xihe shrugged helplessly, "I don't know if it was me who put it there, but I know it's behind it."

It's like being guided by someone.

"Little brother, this is a great thing." The little girl likes shiny things. The glittering things can really make her mood better, not to mention that this is a rare treasure.

"What good stuff?" The moment Xiao Mingxuan took the bead, maybe he saw it wrong, the bead suddenly lit up and soon returned to calm.

"This is the Pearl of Rebirth. With it, immortals can travel through the human world and have a big dream. Mortals can use it to carry their memories to the past and the future. It is a magic weapon that can change one's destiny." Xihe was also puzzled. She vaguely remembered that this treasure should be buried under the tomb of the spirit world. How did Tianshuo come to it out of nowhere?

A guess came to Xiao Mingxuan's mind, "Did you use it to..."

The little girl shook her head slowly, "Little brother, I used to be beyond the six realms, not bound by the laws of heaven, and naturally I couldn't use the rebirth beads that were bound by reincarnation."

Xiao Mingxuan suddenly asked, "Beyond the six realms, so no one can control you?"

"You could say that." Xihe stretched out a finger and poked the Rebirth Pearl like teasing a child, "At that time, the only one who could stand on equal footing with me was the Heavenly Dao."

A terrible thought suddenly came to Xiao Mingxuan's mind.

No one can coerce her, and no one can control her.

So falling from a tall building might be... suicide.

If it was suicide, then why did Xihe, who was afraid of pain, ultimately choose the most painful and least dignified way to die?

This makes no sense.

He knew that Xihe had many secrets, some of which the little girl didn't want to tell, and some of which perhaps even she herself couldn't explain.

"Since it's a good thing, you should keep it well, just in case you need it in the future." Xiao Mingxuan said.

Xihe pushed the bead back with one hand and said, "Little brother, please keep this bead."

Xiao Mingxuan said with a smile: "I am a mortal and I don't seek afterlife, so what's the point of keeping it?"

"Keep it for protection."

"Protection?"

"Hmm." Xihe thought more comprehensively. If it was in the past, there would be no need to worry about this, but now they have a common secret. "You know my past and identity. There is no guarantee that the Heavenly Dao will not take action against you. If you have this thing to protect yourself, he will be more or less cautious."

The Rebirth Pearl recognizes its owner. Once the contract is established, it will protect its owner as he travels through the six realms. If necessary, it will even tear apart space and go to another world.

This is the last trump card Xihe gives to Xiao Mingxuan.

"Okay, I'll take it." Xiao Mingxuan put the beads into his purse, "Go back."

The two of them left together, and neither of them noticed that the eyes of the statue behind them suddenly lit up, and a ray of starlight curved and flowed into Xiao Mingxuan's body from the back.

The moment they stepped out of the underground palace, the statue that had stood solemnly for many years collapsed suddenly, as if it had completed a mission and left peacefully.

"Is this a dense forest?" Xihe listened to the rustling of wind and leaves, and when she looked up, she saw the sun hanging high in the sky. "How come it's daytime already?"

The underground palace does not distinguish between day and night, but according to the estimated time, it is at most an hour and a half. Logically, it should be dark outside, so how come it is daytime? "Little brother, are we really out?" Xihe asked uncertainly.

Xiao Mingxuan looked around and nodded, "It should be out."

But when did so many holes appear in this dense forest? Which gopher is so good at digging holes?
"Why is this day..."

Before Xihe finished speaking, a familiar voice came from behind her.

"What are you doing standing there, kid?"

Xihe and Xiao Mingxuan looked at each other and turned around at the same time, and Liu Yuan's handsome face appeared in their sight.

Maybe there was something wrong with the sun, Xihe now felt that no one looked good.

Liu Yuan ran over and just squatted down. Before he could say a word, the little girl grabbed his face.

"Fuck! What do you want to do, little bastard? Let me go!"

"Does it hurt?" The little girl twisted the other side foolishly, and Liu Yuan cried out in pain even louder.

Xiao Mingxuan knew it well, so he suppressed his laughter and stood aside to watch the show.

"Nonsense! I'll pinch you and see if it hurts!" Liu Yuan couldn't stand it any longer and pulled the little girl's hand off to save his handsome face. "You heartless brat, I almost turned this jungle upside down to find you. And you pinch me as soon as you come back. Are you a little childish? Are you lawless?"

“So you are not a ghost.” Xihe looked at the holes dug everywhere, and her heart was so moved that she almost burst into tears. She immediately held back her tears and said, “Oh, oh, oh, Xihe is so touched. The strange uncle is so good to me~”

Liu Yuan couldn't help but roll his eyes at Xihe. "I worked so hard to dig with a group of people for a whole night and a whole morning, and you come up and say I'm a ghost. Have you ever seen such a cute ghost?"

"One night and one morning?" Xihe suddenly asked.

Liu Yuan didn't understand what was going on, and replied lazily, "Where on earth did you go? I almost dug through the underground, but I didn't see you in a daze."

After the ground collapsed and closed again, Liu Yuan was anxious and led the Shenwu Guards to dig from where they fell, but they could not see the bottom at all.

Xihe and Xiao Mingxuan looked at each other, only for Xiao Mingxuan to shake his head slightly at her.

The implication is don't tell anyone.

It is obvious that the flow of time in the underground palace is different from that in the outside world.

They had only been inside for an hour and a half, but it was almost noon outside.

Moreover, they clearly fell into an underground palace. Judging from the speed and time of falling, it was estimated that the ground would not be very deep, but Liu Yuan and his men dug for a long time and still could not find it.

This is the weirdest part.

Does the underground palace really exist, or is it just an illusion for the two of them?
They were not sure, and dared not reveal the secret.

The little girl waved her hands. “We don’t know either. I fainted when I fell, and I was already here when I woke up. My brother and I just woke up and saw you, strange uncle. You suddenly appeared and scared me, so I thought you were a ghost. The storybook said that ghosts float in the woods. Just like this, floating and floating~”

Liu Yuan was so frightened by the boy's vivid description that he couldn't help but shiver. He said unhappily, "You are the ghost. Your whole family is a ghost!"

Xihe chuckled, "Uncle Weird, my whole family including my father, do you dare to say that in front of my father?"
