Hu Jiulang avoided Fan Mengxue's questioning. He did not want to reveal his inner sorrow and doubts to his junior sister, nor could he give himself a reasonable explanation - he and Yang Tong were just two-way friends. This sudden illusion and the realistic betrayal were really too strange.
Fan Mengxue looked at his tense side face, her eyes full of worry, but she wisely did not ask any more questions. She just nodded lightly and continued to search the Yinchen Pavilion.
The Yinchen Pavilion is small, the furnishings are simple but weird, and there is a cold atmosphere everywhere. Most of the medicinal materials on the table are evil things, and the handwriting on the rune scroll is twisted and weird, with an ominous atmosphere.
The two of them rummaged carefully. Hu Jiulang was somewhat uneasy, but he forced himself to concentrate.
"Brother, look here!"
Fan Mengxue's voice suddenly sounded, with a hint of surprise.
Hu Jiulang hurriedly walked over and saw her standing in front of a black cabinet in the deepest part of the attic. There was a copper lock hanging on the cabinet. The copper lock was wrapped with a faint black aura, which was obviously sealed by evil magic.
There was a faint cold breath coming from the gap in the cabinet, which was exactly the same as the breath of Xuanyin Stone in his impression.
"It should be right here."
A glimmer of light flashed in Hu Jiulang's eyes, he twisted cinnabar with his fingertips, lightly tapped on the copper lock, and recited the spell to break the seal.
The cinnabar instantly ignited with golden light, and the golden light wrapped around the copper lock. The black air wrapped around the copper lock made a "sizzling" sound and gradually dissipated.
After a moment, there was a "click" and the copper lock opened.
Fan Mengxue gently opened the cabinet door and saw that the cabinet was covered with black velvet cloth. In the center of the velvet cloth, lying quietly was a fist-sized black stone. The surface of the stone was smooth, with a faint blue sheen, and a faint cold aura lingering around it. It was the Xuanyin Stone they were looking for.
"Found it!"
Fan Mengxue reached out to take it, but was stopped by Hu Jiulang.
Hu Jiulang's expression was solemn, and his fingertips gently brushed the surface of Xuanyin Stone. There was no abnormality. The cold aura was still pure and not mixed with other evil spirits.
Hu Jiulang breathed a sigh of relief and reached out to pick up the Xuanyin Stone. His hands were cold, and a cold breath seeped into his body along his fingertips.
Hu Jiulang carefully put the Xuanyin Stone into the brocade box he carried with him, closed the lid, and put an exorcism charm on the outside of the brocade box to prevent the Yin Qi of the Xuanyin Stone from leaking out. The two of them walked quickly towards the door of Yinchen Pavilion.
