After losing the Nine Section Staff, especially after leaving Guangzong City, Wei Yuan could faintly feel that a special connection was gradually fading away, gradually slipping out of his grasp, until it finally dissipated completely.

In the last life of the Han Dynasty, only a part of the true spirit returned. Obviously, it was because of Guangzong City and the Taiping Nine Section Staff that temporarily elevated his status, allowing him to interfere and respond to some extent as the Taiping Sect's secondary celestial master.

Moreover, it must be meaningful for a Taiping Daoist to say the prayer of obeying the command of the Taiping Dao's secondary celestial master. The general process should be to burn incense and pray, perform rituals, and say, "Ancestor, we're ready to go, the ancestor replied, 'Get lost.'"

Wei Yuan didn't feel too regretful.

That was the power of the Nine Section Staff, not his own.

It belonged to the obsession left by Guangzong City.

At this moment, he was troubled by whether to go find Wu Zhiqi first or return to the museum. After much thought, the problem still had to be faced. It's better to face it sooner rather than later. The most important thing was that he couldn't run away at all. Even if he was at the ends of the earth, it seemed that the monkey wouldn't be able to stop him if he decided to intrude into his dreams.

Anyway, there was nothing urgent to do at the museum right now.

Wei Yuan contemplated and made a decision. He would first go to Huai River to see Wu Zhiqi, then return to his own museum. He would use the merit of eliminating the evil cultivators of the Taiping Sect to exchange for the next level of the Crouching Tiger Decision. After all, the returned true spirit was only carried on the Nine Section Staff, and in the end, he was only thirteen or fourteen years old, with a congenital foundation missing.

That bit of Daoist practice was pure, but in terms of strength, it was not strong.

And judging from the congenital foundation of that life, he had fallen ill as a child, and he was afraid that he would never achieve anything in his life.

Wei Yuan's thoughts surged, and because of the thunder technique he had just used, he also felt mentally exhausted. He fell into a deep sleep in the car, and then returned by high-speed rail. Wei Yuan declined the plan to go to the Celestial Master's Mansion with everyone after the transfer and got off at Quan City.

Lin Shou caressed the metal box containing the Nine Section Staff in his hand, his expression pensive.

This time, it was probably going to cause a dispute whether this item would belong to the Celestial Master's Mansion of Longhu Mountain or the Lingbao Altar of the Lingbao Sect. After all, the true transmission of the Dongxuan Sect was the Lingbao Scripture of Ge Tian Master's lineage, and the Taiping Sect and the Lingbao Scripture complemented each other. Without the Lingbao Scripture of the Taiping Sect, it would be impossible to reach the highest level.

They would definitely have a desire for the Nine Section Staff.

But Lin Shou thought of a third option.

To send this treasure to that museum.

He thought of the earth-shattering and violent thunder.

Perhaps, this was the return of the item to its original owner.

In order to appease Wu Zhiqi, Wei Yuan prepared a lot of wine and meat, and also prepared five large-capacity power banks, all fully charged. After hesitating several times by the Luo River, he finally sighed and entered the water with these things, using the technique of controlling water to part the waves and go to where Wu Zhiqi was.

Wu Zhiqi was the lord of the Huai River, and he had already sensed Wei Yuan's arrival when he was near.

He never expected that Wei Yuan would return in less than five days.

After losing the network for two full days, he actually felt a sense of unexplained joy at this guy's early arrival. Even the anger disappeared instantly, leaving only a desire to touch the screen with his fingers and look forward to a large amount of information flow.

Immediately, Wu Zhiqi directly suppressed this sense of joy and relaxation.

He sat in the seal of the ancient Huai River, with his eyes closed, surrounded by chains that were enough to lock the gods, his breath calm and condensed, his expression indifferent and calm, as if he was not moved at all, until Wei Yuan appeared with a box and a box, and said, "Lord of the Water, long time no see."

After a few breaths, Wu Zhiqi slowly opened his eyes.

The golden, indifferent pupils looked at Wei Yuan, and he said slowly:

"You really aren't afraid of death."

Wei Yuan helplessly clasped his hands and said, "I did indeed behave rudely before, but it was also unavoidable. Nowadays, there is a lot of information in the human world. I am a member of the human race, and naturally I am worried that someone's reckless words will provoke the Lord of Water, leading to a situation that no one wants to face."

Wei Yuan racked his brains to express his concerns as discreetly as possible within the range that would not provoke Wu Zhiqi, this ancient god, and then said without changing his expression, "As for the previous time, there was indeed a problem with the phone."

Wu Zhiqi opened his golden eyes and said in a flat voice:

"Do you think I will have the same knowledge as an ordinary person?"

He said, "I have experienced many things in ancient times, and I also know that the creatures of the human world like to speculate about everything from their own standpoint. I have also told you that if I were to take action against ordinary humans, even Yu would be ashamed of me..."

Wei Yuan fell silent and said self-deprecatingly, "I have underestimated the Lord of Water with a petty heart."

A god, even a calamitous one, is still a god.

After exchanging a few words with a certain distance, Wei Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, took the initiative to bid farewell and leave, and Wu Zhiqi surprisingly said nothing, letting him leave as if he really didn't care about the previous matter, making Wei Yuan feel both emotional and strange.

This seemed to be somewhat different from the monkey remembering that one pottery piece for five thousand years.

With a faint sense of surprise and contemplation, Wei Yuan left.After Wei Yuan left, Wu Zhiqi still sat cross-legged in the water with his eyes closed, exuding a divine aura, until

one,

two,

three.

After silently counting to three and confirming that Wei Yuan had left, Wu Zhiqi suddenly opened his eyes. His golden pupils seemed to burn like flames as they locked onto the box brought by Wei Yuan. Impatiently raising his hand, the items flew towards him, and Ta, filled with joy after a separation of five thousand years, opened the box.

He saw bottles of transparent liquid with a pungent wine fragrance.

He saw five fully charged power banks.

The power level of the power banks was almost like a perfect mockery.

The joy on Wu Zhiqi's face gradually solidified, and his eyes widened as he raised his arms and roared, "Wei Yuan!!! Give it back to me!"

"Give me back my phone!"

With a sudden movement of his hand, the rushing water turned into a visible blue water dragon, entwining and rushing towards Wei Yuan. He was contemplating whether to catch a fish on the way back when he reached out to grab a fish and saw a water dragon appear, directly entwining around his legs.

Wei Yuan: "…………"

Because the scene was too coincidental, an innocent and confused thought even flashed through his mind.

Damn, I was just trying to catch a fish.

Is this really necessary...

His thoughts slightly stagnated as the water dragon carried him back to the bottom of the Huai River where Wu Zhiqi was. Wei Yuan almost felt dizzy and disoriented, then saw Wu Zhiqi pointing to the five large power banks stacked together, shouting loudly, "I wanted a phone, a phone!"

Wei Yuan was pulled back roughly and felt a little annoyed. His eyes widened in anger, and he slapped the air, saying, "But you didn't tell me!"

Wu Zhiqi was even angrier and shook the chain directly, "How could I tell you when you were so far away without a phone?!"

Wei Yuan angrily said, "How would I know you didn't have a phone if you didn't tell me?!"

"Then you have to give me a phone first before I can tell you!"

"You..."

Wei Yuan's thoughts slightly paused, he took a deep breath, massaged his forehead, and stopped this behavior that was so familiar. Then he silently warned himself not to argue with a monkey, otherwise his brain would be dragged down to the level of a monkey and then crushed by this monkey with muscles and brute force.

He waved his hand calmly and restrainedly, saying, "Fine, you want a phone, I'll get you one."

Wu Zhiqi pointed to a box of strong liquor next to him and said, "Also, you said this is wine?!"

Wei Yuan was stunned, "This is wine."

Wu Zhiqi said, "This is not wine!"

Wei Yuan fell silent, organized his thoughts and words, and said, "Excuse me, Water Lord, the wine you mentioned is the one I brought to you before, the black one, sweet and strong-smelling, right?" When he saw Wu Zhiqi nod solemnly, Wei Yuan opened his mouth and felt bewildered.

……………………

At this time, a new guest arrived in Quan City.

In the museum, Water Ghost was sitting with one hand on the chair, bright eyes, and speaking passionately. The red embroidered shoes were dancing quickly, and it was in high spirits. Suddenly, it heard a rhythmic and restrained knocking on the door outside. For a moment, all the ghosts thought it was Wei Yuan coming back, and they all stiffened at once.

Water Ghost's words were stuck in its throat, and the red embroidered shoes paused for a moment before running back into the wooden box, and it also stuck a talisman on the box, leaving only the Water Ghost, dumbfounded, as the knocking sound continued. It reluctantly approached the door with a sullen face.

Then it looked outside and was stunned.

The one who came back was not Wei Yuan, but a young woman wearing a bright red dress as brilliant and blooming as peonies, with black hair hanging down, a quiet and hidden air of elegance, and a not-so-large box on her back.

A guest?

Water Ghost hesitated, and at this moment, it heard the sound of wind chimes, and it was stunned.

Subconsciously, it followed the sound of the wind chimes and saw a flower shop that had been closed for some time open across from the museum. A girl with a gentle and pure temperament walked out from inside.

………………

Tian Nujue woke up from a not-so-long sleep.

Then, wearing a fluffy panda pajama that Wei Yuan didn't know about, quietly purchased online, she lay on the modern soft bed and stared blankly for a full hour before reluctantly sighing and getting up.

She opened her phone, saw the messages sent before, and saw the newly created group chat. Without scrolling through the records, she just rested her chin on her hand and looked for the right emoticons to express goodwill.

She made a choice.

Then she read through all the emoticons twice.

Carefully chose the one she originally chose, and clicked send.
