853: A Treasure

A Treasure

Xie Qiao put away her sword and returned to her feet.0

Then, she exhaled. "Forget it if you can't clean them. These bronze mirrors can't be used anymore." 

Zhou Weizong and the others heaved a sigh of relief.

"Do you need Minister Xie Qing and my help now?" Zhao Xuanjing felt that he and Xie Pinggang were like two wooden staff, no different from the surrounding flowers and plants.

"This is just the beginning. Later..." Xie Qiao smiled at Zhao Xuanjing with a flattering smile. "I should be able to use you." 

"Senior Sister, just tell me what to do." Zhao Xuanjing was quite happy. Then, he glanced at Xie Pinggang leisurely, "Minister Xie, don't stay idle. You're such a big man. Standing here is a hindrance. Later, if someone asks you to put in some effort, don't be slow and careless." 

The Crown Prince was especially picky today.

He did not know how to capture souls…

"Yes!" Xie Pinggang agreed readily.

"Young Master Xie, you can get to work now," Xie Qiao said and pointed at the black soil. "Dig It!" 

"Alright!" Xie Pinggang immediately went forward and asked the subordinates to do it.

They could not dig it directly just now, but they could now. However, they were definitely not done with this place yet. The evil energy that spread out just now was not much. She guessed that there was probably a tomb under here.

"There's a piece of rotten wood here." Xie Pinggang pulled out something after digging twice. "It's wrapped in cloth." 

Xie Qiao glanced at it and did not seem to be affected. "That's a reishi mushroom. There's nothing on it now, but this thing... should be used by that Grand Immortal to possess it and move around." 

"Isn't the reishi mushroom an herb?" Zhao Xuanjing was stunned and puzzled.

"It's an herb, but the reishi mushroom is different. It's a herb in a tomb. As the name suggests, it grows from a coffin. Ordinary herbs in a tomb can also be used as an herb, but not this one. There is blood energy and dark energy on it. The parasitic coffin is buried in a bad place. It's too dark, so the thing that grows out of it is also bad. Because it has a strong dark energy, it can be used by the ghouls for the time being.

"Some ghouls are trapped in a place and cannot move. If they possess the reishi mushroom and it's carried by a living person, they can go wherever they want," Xie Qiao added.

Some ghouls were born to live on objects, such as the scissors from the Yan family.

However, these ghouls could only live on this object that had something to do with them when they were alive.

However, any ghoul could live on this reishi mushroom. Moreover, it could nourish the evil energy of the ghoul and make the ghoul become more powerful.

Zhao Xuanjing understood.

"Do we continue to dig?" Xie Pinggang asked.

Xie Qiao nodded. "Yes." 

The men continued to work and threw the reishi mushroom aside. Xie Qiao went forward. She took out a talisman, stuck it on it, and put it into the bamboo basket.

"Is there any other use for this thing?" Zhao Xuanjing asked with a smile in his eyes.

Xie Qiao's hand froze, she looked up blankly. "I'm... taking it home and stewing the rooster." 

Zhao Xuanjing's face froze.

"Feed the rooster, I said it wrong." Xie Qiao grinned. "It's a good thing. Although it has some dark energy, I'm capable... I'll take it back to deal with it and use it to sharpen the teeth of my family's rooster." 

"Your rooster has teeth?" Zhao Xuanjing listened to her nonsense that she said in all seriousness.

Xie Qiao was silent for a moment, but she still chose to be honest, "The dark energy is heavy. If I concoct it, I can... visit hell or summon ghouls. But it's hard to say. After all... It's a treasure. If more people know about it and fight with me... It would be terrible, right?"
