Corpse Recovery Diver

Previously, because he refused to have Brother Pang Jin as a tour guide, Brother Pang Jin gave him a very detailed Lijiang tour map.

In these past few days, the map has been placed on the stone table in the center of the courtyard of the guesthouse, and Tan Wenbin has been sitting next to the table, holding a compass in his left hand and a pen in his right, watching and calculating.

He then marked the locations of the two corpse energies on the map.

Two lines, constantly moving, even intersecting in between.

It should be Zhao Yi and the holder of the first fragment of jade getting close to each other in a mutual understanding, wanting to create more chaos.

Every time Run Sheng, Lin Shuyou, and Yin Meng pass by here, they would bend their heads down to take a look, as if checking real-time weather forecasts.

Compared to Li Zhiyuan's glance which can pinpoint an exact position, Tan Wenbin's methods appear much more cumbersome, with each calculation taking half an hour.

This means his calculation is delayed by half an hour, making it practically impossible to use this method to contest for the broken jade.

Tan Wenbin is well aware of this fact, and even his calculations in terms of practicality are less useful than letting the two children on his shoulders sense the positions of the corpse energy.

But since he has time to spare, Tan Wenbin uses this as practice.

The two children on his shoulders will be sent to reincarnate once enough merits are accumulated, so he needs to adapt to the days without their help in advance.

Although this will cause his position within the team to become lost again, it's not a reason to keep the two children from reincarnating.

Throughout the journey, they've experienced too many bloodbaths and fierce winds. Some people lose themselves due to this, while others come to further understand the significance of holding on.

Run Sheng holds a bowl of noodles in his hand and is eating.

A basin is at his feet, filled with noodles, with two thick incense sticks burning on top.

Run Sheng slurps two big bites of noodles and then picks up the burning incense, biting into it as if it were crunchy scallions.

As for him, the quickest way to recover after waking up is to eat until satiated.

Unfortunately, this incense must be made by Aunt Liu and can't be sown in the fields like scallions.

Lin Shuyou, on the other hand, likes to be on the rooftop, keeping watch while practicing the Health Care Fist he secretly learned from Brother Xiao Yuan.

This set of fist techniques doesn't have any offensive capabilities; it can be used daily to promote the circulation of blood and energy, and also help in recuperation after injuries.

However, these actions are tailor-made for Li Zhiyuan by viewing many Taoist Health Care Scriptures, and upon discovering that Ah You was practicing them secretly, Li Zhiyuan even corrected his movements and adjusted the flow of energy.

Li Zhiyuan then discovered that these actions are indeed useful for Lin Shuyou.

Blessings and misfortunes coexist; every matter has two sides.

Every descent of the Yin God imposes a heavy burden on the Divination Child's body, equivalent to draining water from the canal, yet it provides a better opportunity to adjust and expand the canal.

As long as the foundation isn't destroyed, it's rather a shortcut to accelerate physical development.

Previously, when the Lord of Yin descended, he wouldn't worry about these things, which led to Divination Children generally having poorer physical conditions than peers, shorter average lifespans, and greater sacrifices.

Moreover, the history of the official is short, generally following a robust route, lacking in health care and recuperation.

However, these two issues don't exist with Lin Shuyou; the White Crane Child now treasures his body greatly.

Sometimes, amenities are reflected in such slight matters; Li Zhiyuan casually flips through the books on health care and can easily add a link to the systematic gaps within the official.

Lin Shuyou's master and grandfather once came to Jinling, performing an extremely exaggerated act of arrogance and humility; outsiders may find it humorous, but they are the ones truly having far-sighted vision.

Yin Meng, unable to go out, can't search nature to extract toxins and replenish supplies; she can only spend her days either sitting or lying down, playing around with that Gu worm.

She's developed several new ways to play with the Gu worm; for instance, after noticing a crack on the worm's back, Yin Meng used her nails to tear the crack open.

The Gu worm was in so much pain that it yelped, twitched, and nearly passed out.

Yet after the tear, the Gu worm gained a pair of wings and could fly freely like a ladybug.

Though it couldn't fly very high or far, this was still considered a significant advancement.

Yin Meng heeded Run Sheng's advice and hasn't given it a name, so if it died, she wouldn't feel heartbroken.

This is indeed a correct approach; if Yin Meng really kept it as a pet, she wouldn't bear to treat it cruelly, and then its wings wouldn't open, binding it in self-inflicted cocooning, with life shortly after.

Frankly, creatures like the Gu worm are not fitted for affectionate treatment; the kinder you are, paradoxically, it inhibits and maltreats its growth and development.

Li Zhiyuan has been resting and recovering these past few days while patching up the array of the guesthouse.

The "pack of wolves" on the perimeter tried to breach the array together that evening, although Zhao Yi, the mole on the opposite side, helped partially alleviate the pressure, the backlash from the array was still considerable for Li Zhiyuan.

Without utilizing the inherent Feng Shui patterns of renowned mountains and rivers, and without manpower to ram and construct buildings, launching high buildings from the ground, these temporary arrays naturally require the controller's manipulation and maintenance more.

Once his physical condition is readjusted, Li Zhiyuan finally has the opportunity to take out the piece of red broken jade and formally commence its research.

The young man first drew two spell patterns on his right wrist and forearm as insurance.

Then he moved the Copper Coin from atop the piece of red broken jade; without its suppressor, the piece of red broken jade began to tremble.
