He smiled and nodded: "Yao Yao..."
Yao Yao added, "Uncle Li Shui just arrived too, you can sit together."
Upon hearing this, the smile on the face of True Lord Xiaoyue Zhuyang suddenly froze.
what?
He followed Yao Yao into the store and looked at a table.
Li Shui Die Shan Zhenjun was holding a piece of Sachima in his hand. He had eaten half of it and had a satisfied and enjoyable expression on his face. As if he had noticed something, he raised his head and his gaze met that of Xiao Yue Zhu Yang Zhenjun at the door. His expression froze.
After True Lord Xiaoyue Zhuyang sat down beside him, True Lord Lishui Dieshan looked at him and asked, "Why are you here? Didn't you say you weren't coming?"
"I finished watching the play and came to see Yao Yao. Didn't you also say you couldn't come?"
“I…I came to see Shen He.”
"..."
"Uncle Xiaoyue, here's your juice."
Yao Yao brought over the juice, and the two True Lords immediately put on normal smiles.
"Thank you, Yao Yao."
After Yao Yao left, True Lord Li Shui Die Shan took a bite of the half-eaten Sachima and said, "This snack is quite delicious, you should try it."
The True Lord of Moon-Cut Sun glanced at him and gave him a "good-for-nothing" look.
Last night, the two of them insisted on not eating a single bite of the dorayaki at Grandma Ping's place, but today their companion betrayed them.
"It's really delicious, much better than yesterday's. If you don't want any, I'll eat it all by myself."
Seeing his gluttonous appearance, the True Lord of the Moon-Cut Sun picked up a piece of Sachima with a hint of annoyance and took a bite.
He paused for a moment, then said, "It's quite delicious...give me half."
Chapter 192 Shen He Launches the Charge
Xia Zhi stood behind the table, looking at the two True Lords from God's perspective.
Their platinum progress bar has now reached 24%.
Because he used master-level culinary skills to make the desserts today, the progress of today's desserts increased by 15%, which is twice as much as yesterday's desserts (5%).
Although the farming speed has increased considerably, considering that the two True Lords will most likely leave Liyue Harbor after Granny Ping's birthday and return to their Immortal Abode in Jueyun, he still won't be able to farm enough just by relying on snacks; he'll have to rely on cooking.
But that's something for the day after tomorrow.
At this moment, he was pondering which True Lord he should choose to steal skills from.
The True Lord of Water Management and Mountain Creation often travels the world in the form of a crane, while the True Lord of Moon Carving and Sun Building often travels the world in the form of a deer.
Since that's the case, let's choose Lord Lishui. Because of the little crane, he has a better feeling about the Sky-Soaring Clan.
"Successfully used [Stealing Skill], and learned the skill [Creating Amber as a Prison] from the target."
"【Create an Amber Imprisonment】: Drive the power of the rock element to create a piece of amber to imprison and seal the target inside."
Sealing skills?
Xia Zhi looked at the system panel, somewhat surprised. Then he remembered a record he had once seen in "Jueyun Jiwen".
“Deep within the clouds lies a sacred mountain, covered with giant amber. A curious person broke it open with an axe and found a ferocious demon inside… hence the name Amber Mountain.”
The amber from Mount Hulao sounds very fitting for the effect of this skill.
Could those demons have been sealed away on that mountain by True Lord Lishui before?
The history on paper suddenly transformed into reality before Xia Zhi's eyes, which felt somewhat surreal.
After the two True Lords left, Ningguang arrived as promised with her personal secretary.
Xia Zhi treated the two of them to some snacks.
But he didn't say he would treat everyone to juice today, not because he wanted to earn Ningguang's few hundred Mora.
He has no shortage of money, and neither does Ningguang.
He just didn't want to appear too attentive, lest others misunderstand that he had designs on Ningguang.
After all, their relationship wasn't very close; not counting the time in the dream, this was only their second meeting.
Xia Zhi felt it was best to maintain a polite distance from such important figures.
Ningguang's beauty, status, and wealth destined her to be surrounded by a whirlpool; getting close to her could easily bring you all sorts of trouble.
He just wants to live a peaceful life.
But when Ningguang left, she actually turned back and glanced at him.
Xia Zhi "saw" a sly smile flash in her eyes, and he inexplicably had a strange feeling that she was watching him.
???
No, I really didn't play hard to get...
After get off work, Shen He took Yao Yao home.
Upon arriving at Yujingtai, we saw Grandma Ping standing at the door waiting for us, a kind smile on her face.
"Master! Yao Yao is back!"
"Ah."
"Yaoyao brought you some snacks again!"
"it is good."
Shen He looked at Grandma Ping and greeted her softly, "Grandma..."
Grandma Ping nodded, but seeing that Shen He seemed hesitant, she couldn't help but ask, "Shen He, is something the matter?"
"I'd like to ask, does Grandma know any magical arts for entering dreams?"
"The method of entering dreams... I certainly know it."
"Grandma, can you teach me?"
"If you want to learn, of course you can. I'll go to my room and get it."
After Grandma Ping finished speaking, she turned around and went into the house.
Yao Yao looked at Shen He and asked curiously, "Sister Shen He, why do you suddenly want to learn the art of entering dreams?"
Shen He lowered his head and said softly, "There's something I need to use... Yao Yao, can you keep this a secret for me?"
Yao Yao blinked and nodded obediently, "Yes!"
Shen He's eyes softened, and he reached out to pat Yao Yao's head: "Thank you."
A moment later, Grandma Ping came out of the house with a small booklet in her hand, the cover of which read "The Method of Dreaming Through Various Realms".
"This method is originally used in dreams to allow the soul to leave the body for cultivation. It can also be used to summon the souls of others. It has many uses. Shen He, I hope you will make good use of this method."
"I'll remember, thank you Grandma."
Shen He took the booklet, earnestly agreed, and put it away.
"I'm going back."
"Ah."
Grandma Ping watched Shen He's departing figure, her expression thoughtful.
The method of entering dreams...
Is Shen He being affected by worldly affairs, recalling his past experiences, and starting to have nightmares at night?
If that's the case, this method could help her get rid of her nightmares.
At night, Shen He sat in his room, carefully studying "The Method of Dreaming Through Various Realms" by the light of a four-panel lamp.
"...This method requires a ritual...an incense burner, seven lamps, and some cooling items..."
There was an incense burner in Shen He's room, and her hair ornament also had a seven-star lamp inside. As for cooling items, she lowered her head and reached out to take off the ice-type God's Eye hanging on her body.
"...The process of performing the ritual: burning incense, meditating, casting incantations..."
Shen He lit a piece of "Perfect Calming Incense" that the boss had given her into the incense burner, and a strange fragrance filled her room.
She sat cross-legged on the bed, closed her eyes, and began to recall that painful experience from her childhood.
Once the image in her mind became clear and fixed, she whispered the incantation: "Soul leaves the body, enter my dream."
As soon as she recited the two incantations, Shen He suddenly felt her spirit lighten. The next moment, she found herself standing in the courtyard from her memories, and her body had transformed into that of a little girl.
Before me stood a large, lush tree.
Shen He raised his head and silently looked at the tree that had been with him for many years.
After pushing her towards the monster, the father returned home and waited anxiously for three days, but he did not see his mother, who had been brought back to life in exchange for her life. In the end, he hanged himself in despair on this tree.
Shen He reached out and gently touched the tree, his heart filled with mixed emotions.
