208 Ill-intentioned

Not long after Phantom Yu left, Mu Xian'er also left with his promise.

Parting always makes people feel sad, so both of them have a tacit understanding to choose this simple way.

At the same time, it is also because they firmly believe in each other that parting now is just for a better reunion in the future.

With Mu Xian'er's help, Phantom Rain is now a big step away from his goal, which also makes his heart, which was originally a little worried, slowly relax a lot.

However, what he didn't expect was that the news of the last herb that he had no clue about would actually be sent to the door by someone.

On the second day after he left Tianyong City with Long Ao, that is, the day after he and Mu Xian'er were separated, a black-robed figure appeared in front of him.

This black-robed man Phantom Rain is no stranger, he is the person from the Hundred Illusion Building who was with the old man before.

After this person appeared, he didn't attack Phantom Rain or do anything else, but just threw a token and a word to Phantom Rain.

"Go to this place and find what you want"

After saying this, this person turned into a streamer and disappeared, without even giving Phantom Rain a chance to ask.

After the person disappeared completely, Phantom Rain set his eyes on the token.

The pitch-black token has a strange shape, with a pattern resembling a skull, and nothing on the front except for a command.

On the back of the token, there are two big characters with strange shapes, Ghost Palace.

Looking at the token in his hand, he remembered the previous words of the black-robed man.

Phantom Rain slowly fell into thought.

This token should represent a certain force, or this force is called the Ghost Temple, which should not be wrong.

And what I want most at the moment is undoubtedly the last herb.

Then everything is simple and straightforward.

Thinking about this, Phantom Rain couldn't help but be a little moved.

If he guessed correctly, this black-robed man should have been sent by Mu Xian'er, he couldn't help but think like this.

This time, however, he had guessed wrong.

The black-robed man was actually not sent by Mu Xian'er, but the old man.

Since Mu Xian'er set foot on the way home, it seemed very quiet all the way.

Except for explaining to the old man why he wanted to take the four herbs, he almost didn't say much, and the whole person looked a little lost.

This scene fell in the eyes of the old man, which naturally made him feel something unusual.

If it were Mu Xian'er in the past, how could she stay in the carriage honestly, and she might have to be naughty and mischievous along the way.

This girl has grown up since she was a child, how can he not understand.

So he couldn't help but think of Mu Xian'er's previous words.

According to Mu Xian'er, after she sneaked out, she was accidentally poisoned, and then happened to be met by Phantom Rain, and finally helped to be rescued.

As for Phantom Rain's identity, he is an alchemist.

Since you have received the favor of others, it is natural that you should repay it.

And it just so happened that during the time when she was recuperating from her injuries, she happened to hear Phantom Yu talk about the need to refine an elixir, but there was still a lack of some medicinal herbs.

That's why Mu Xian'er will take these herbs.

All in all, in a word, repay the grace that saved lives.

If you listen to this statement at a cursory glance, it does make sense.

But with a little closer thought, it's simply full of loopholes.

Although the old man was not an alchemist, how could he not know the preciousness of those herbs.

Although he had only met Phantom Rain once, at that age, even if he was an alchemist, how much heat could he have.

It is completely unreasonable for a low-level alchemist to use so many precious herbs to refine the pill.

Coupled with Mu Xian'er's various performances, it shows that there is definitely a problem between the two.

How many years he has lived, he can feel something from the previous scene between the two.

Thinking of this, the old man called all the people who knew about it and inquired about it.

In the end, I learned that Mu Xian'er had searched for a total of five kinds of medicinal herbs, and one of them was not even in the Hundred Illusion Building.

This news made the old man reaffirm the guess in his heart.

So, he sent a black-robed man to deliver this message to Phantom Rain.

And in order to dispel Phantom Rain's suspicions, he also deliberately took out the black token.

This token is indeed as Phantom Rain guessed, representing a force.

And not only that, but the place where this force is located is very peculiar.

As for why the old man did this.

That's because he was worried that Mu Xian'er was deceived by Phantom Rain because she was young.

And it seems that not only did he deceive those precious herbs, but he even seemed to have deceived his heart.

Such a thing, he will never allow it to happen.

And where that force is, whether there is anything that Phantom Rain needs, he actually doesn't know.

His purpose was only to trick Phantom Rain into that place.

As for what will happen, it will depend on the Phantom Rain's own creation.

And what is Phantom Rain doing at this time?

Although he has a token, he is naturally confused about where the power represented by this token is.

So, he took Long Ao to inquire around.

A whole month passed, and he still didn't get anything.

Just when he was already a little impatient.

He and Long Ao coincidentally came to a seaside city, Tianyu City.

This was the first time Phantom Rain had seen the sea on the Phantom Feather Continent, and he was naturally excited.

However, since he is a landlubber, he naturally does not have the opportunity to go into the water to experience the wonderful taste of swimming.

However, not long after he and Long Ao arrived in this city, the news of the token finally had some clues.

That's when he happened to see a large black ship docked on the seashore, with markings that resembled the shape of a skeleton.

Originally, he was about to go forward to investigate, but was stopped by a group of guards, and when he saw this, he could only give up temporarily.

At the same time, he couldn't help but guess in his heart, could it be that this force called the Ghost Hall was on the island.

To confirm his suspicions, he has been staring at the ship ever since.

Finally, after waiting for two days, a group of people left the ship, so he naturally did not hesitate to secretly capture one person.

Then through torture, he finally got the information of this force called the Ghost Temple.

According to the man he captured, the temple did exist on an island, and the island was called Ghost Island.

As for the specific location, his answer made Phantom Rain a little surprised, that is, he didn't know either.

Before Phantom Rain could ask, he told Phantom Rain the reason.

In fact, their ship is only responsible for transporting some daily necessities to Oni Island every other month.

And each time they just transported to a certain place in the sea, and then the ship sent from Onijima came to complete the handover at sea, and at that time, the people of Onijima would also inform them of what needed to be delivered next.

Then they went back the way they came, so naturally they had no way of knowing the location of Onishima.

Getting such an answer, Phantom Rain's eyes flickered, it seems that this force is indeed a bit mysterious, no wonder it is called such a name.

But soon he had a plan in his heart.
