"The body is surrounded by golden light, reflecting upon me, unseen to the eye, unheard to the ear..."
As that piece of paper inexplicably burned in the air, it emitted a blinding light, as if the power of shadows had been repelled. This light was like the morning sun, driving away the surrounding darkness.
We recited along with him.
The light produced by the burning paper drove away the power of shadows, and the surroundings instantly became much brighter.
"We need to find a way to completely solve this problem," Master Xuan Zhenzi reminded us.
"This only temporarily scares away the shadows; it won't last long."
Zhao Ming turned to look at me, determination filling his eyes: "We can't just give up."
"No matter what the cost."
I tightly grasped his hand, feeling his resolve, while a new strength surged within me.
"We will never give up."
Facing the crisis of Emerald Bamboo Village with Zhao Ming, I felt both anxious and resolute.
"Master Xuan Zhenzi, can you help us?" I turned to ask him.
His expression was very serious, his brows furrowed as if he were contemplating something significant.
After a moment, he finally spoke: "I do have an idea, but it depends on whether you are willing to cooperate."
"What is it?" Zhao Ming quickly pressed for details.
Master Xuan Zhenzi glanced at me, his gaze somewhat hesitant: "But I can't guarantee that this method will work."
"If we fail, the village might..."
I remained silent, torn inside. On one hand, I truly wanted to save the village; on the other hand, I feared that Master Xuan Zhenzi's plan might backfire.
"Do we have any other options?" Zhao Ming asked heavily.
Master Xuan Zhenzi shook his head and looked at me frankly: "We have no way out now. If we don't try, then there will really be no hope left."
"Since we've come this far, we can't turn back now."
My heart was also in turmoil.
I know that Master Xuan Zhenzi was right. We have no way out now.
"Alright." I took a deep breath and made up my mind, "I'll go with you."
"Lin Xiaoyue..." Zhao Ming looked at me with a worried expression, but I could see his support and determination in his eyes.
"I know this is definitely dangerous, but we have no other choice now."
"We have to give it a try."
Zhao Ming nodded, gripping my hand tightly, his gaze incredibly firm: "No matter what the outcome is, we will always be together."
"Mm." I also squeezed his hand back tightly, feeling full of gratitude.
Master Xuan Zhenzi took out an ancient map from his pocket, which was covered with various strange symbols. He pointed to a place on the map, his expression extremely serious.
"This should help us."
We had already decided to follow the plan laid out by the senior named Xuan Zhenzi!
As night quietly fell, the three of us left the quiet little village and set off toward the place marked on the map. In the pitch-black night, the lights from the village illuminated our path, serving as a guiding beacon.
As our footsteps echoed in the empty night, shadows followed behind us. But this time, those ghostly outlines were no longer a threat; instead, they seemed to silently witness our unwavering determination!
