A storm is brewing

release their spirits first. These restless souls have been around for centuries; they probably haven't had anyone offer them prayers and send them off." I whispered.Jiang Qiyun frowned slightly, but...I recalled Mu Wanchen's hesitation before, and couldn't help but have some doubts in my heart.

Mu Wanchen, does he also have a bad feeling, but he doesn't want to tell me.

He once hoped I could live with him in the Wizard City, but then he said he was afraid the cold would be too much for me and asked me to stay at home instead.

He definitely has other plans, that's why he thinks it's better for me to stay home.

"Sihuang, could you be more specific"

"Specific How specific Premonition is a kind of indescribable feeling. If we could clearly know the year, month, day, time, person, and event, then we wouldn't be shamans, but gods who know everything! However, hmph…"

Si Huang let out a disdainful sneer.

"However, what You little witches, you're all talk and no substance, always beating around the bush, never getting to the point! It's infuriating!" I snapped, rolling my eyes.

Si Huang glared at me: "Nonsense, state secrets are not to be divulged. Since you're also a person from the yin-yang circle, don't you know that Wu Bi San Que is the teachings of our ancestors"

Of course, that means some people are different from ordinary people. They can see things that ordinary people can't and know things that ordinary people don't.

But if one boasts without restraint, oversteps their bounds, and thinks they can understand the profound mysteries, change other people's destinies, or control the course of history, the ultimate consequence will be "retribution" upon themselves.

Some things are the natural order of the universe, the way of heaven follows its course, karmic obstacles and consequences have their own logic. If you insist on "changing" them, you will have to pay the corresponding price.

"Five Deficiencies" refers to "widowhood, widowhood, loneliness, solitude, and disability," and three lacks of "money, life, and power." Anyone who leaks heaven's secrets will have the fate of Five Deficiencies and Three Lacks, so learning "to point without revealing" has become a necessary art of speaking.

But this is too painful for outsiders, they don't understand it at all.

"Si Huang, you need to be more specific. Otherwise, others won't understand and won't be able to take precautions in advance. You practitioners of witchcraft can communicate with heaven and earth, aren't you supposed to be for the benefit of all living beings"

“The point is to not understand, so that things won't change. We were originally created to counter the forces of nature during the barbaric era, simply for survival. Later, we gradually evolved into advisors behind the scenes. How many rulers don't care about their people but consult with ghosts and gods They feared the power of witchcraft and sorcery, so they eradicated us. What do we care about others Taking care of our own kind is tiring enough.” Si Huang snorted.

I surrendered, saying, “All right, all right. If it’s just your own people, then there are quite a few of them now. There are many people living within this method. How do you plan to manage them You came to find Mu Wanchen, what is it that you want to discuss”

Si Huang frowned, hesitated for a moment, and said to me in a low voice, "Is there any way to transfer important items out"

What!

I was inwardly startled. Before, Mu Wanchen had transported a "treasure chest" to me. Those things, aside from their worldly value, held significant meaning in terms of faith — such as that tiny jade seal.

Now Sihuang even wants to transfer things outward, does she really feel that something big is going to happen

"What do you want to transfer If it's not too much, and you trust me, you can leave it at my place first. I can help you find a bank's underground vault to keep it safe." I replied, frowning.

Who is the bank

"Cough... you don't need to worry about this too much, you can go and see the bank yourself sometime in the future. Anyway, the underground vault is very safe, but since you don't have an ID, I'll have to handle everything for you. After that, only I can open it. If I die, only my direct relatives will be able to inherit and open it. Do you trust me with this Think about it carefully before you say anything."I laid out the stakes first.

I don't have much interest in the secrets and treasures of Wu Wang City. My deepest concern here is Mu Wanchen, everything else is insignificant to me.

"Are you really not interested in our clan's treasures" Si Huang was unconvinced.

"Nonsense, I don't lack wealth or crave treasures. Originally, I had no dealings with any of you. But...but Mu Wanchen is here. I don't understand what grievances exist between your witches and sorcerers. To me, you are all people who share the same fate, prosperity for one brings prosperity to all, adversity for one brings adversity to all. So I treat you all equally. As long as I'm not an enemy of Mu Wanchen, I consider you all kin." I shrugged, making my stance clear.

Si Huang frowned, as if weighing the pros and cons.

She asked anxiously, "Are you leaving here soon"

"What do you mean Your tone sounds like you want me to leave quickly." I asked, puzzled.

“Yes, I have a bad feeling about this. If I give you our tribe's treasure, of course I hope you can take it out quickly…”

Hearing this, my doubts deepened. Mu Wanchen wouldn't let me stay here; he must have had a bad premonition as well.

"If you're quick, I'll take you out in a bit. Can you get ready" I frowned at Si Huang.

Si Huang raised her hand and took off the hair ornament she was wearing.

Her hair ornament was in the shape of a phoenix, very luxurious and exquisite. It looked like the kind of intricate headdress that a former queen would wear.

"Si Huang, even if gold and silver jewelry are valuable, they are still just external possessions. Could it be that this thing is very important" I frowned and asked.

Si Huang glared at me. “Of course not that!”

As she spoke, she removed the hairpin. Her hair was piled up beneath her crown. Once the hairpin was out, her raven-black hair cascaded down like a waterfall.

Her hair is so long, it reaches her calves!

"……Don't you get tired of washing your hair" I thought my long hair was already a hassle.

Si Huang didn't answer me, she took out a round object from her braided hair.

That was a "stone" bead.

The surface was rough and dull.

This stone bead was about the size of a quail egg, carefully hidden by Si Huang in her upswept hair.

"This object is the most important treasure, usually kept by the chieftain—because most chieftains are the wives of the great shaman." She placed the stone beads in her palm and rubbed them gently.

I said coldly, "Then you'd better keep it yourself."

"Hmph, you're still jealous Your ex-wife has been dead for years, besides it was only nominal. You shouldn't be eating this kind of jealousy."

"This thing just looks like a stone bead. There's no need to put it in a bank's underground vault. Anyone who sees it will just kick it aside. Keeping it in my pond would be safe enough." I scoffed.

"This is something that has been guarded by the clan leader of the generations. How could it be put in a pond!"

“The most dangerous places are the safest… Think about it, this thing looks unremarkable. Who knows if it’s a treasure Who knows what it can be used for That's right, let me keep it in the bonsai pot in my room, with its good friend the pebble.”

Si Huang stared at me, and I suddenly felt she was tougher than me.

Mu Wanchen suddenly appeared at the entrance of the main hall, frowning and asking, "What are you doing here Little Luo'er, why did you run around"pushed me from the side, causing me to roll half a circle to the side, which reduced the impact of landing.I grabbed a handful of withered branches and leaves, scrambling to my feet and running in the...
