The Three Spirit Stones

When I got home, Ah Cai was still sleeping, her chest rising and falling with her long breaths.

Cheng Yu touched her face and found it was at normal temperature. It seemed that the Yuanling Qi was very effective on her.

He felt relieved, walked to the study, turned on the computer, logged into the airline ticket website, bought two tickets to fly back to his homeland at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning, then walked back to the room and started packing.

It was still light at six o'clock when Ah Cai felt someone touching her face.

"dad……,"

She opened her eyes and cried out,

"Well, did you sleep well?" Cheng Yu asked.

"Oh no, I had a nightmare... I dreamed that I was kidnapped and they beat me to death. It was so scary!"

She spoke of her dream with lingering fear.

Cheng Yu looked at her with a complicated expression, hesitating whether to tell her the truth immediately. After thinking about it, he decided to wait a while, and then said, "Baby, get up first, brush your teeth and have breakfast. We are going to a place later."

"Prenatal checkup?"

"……Um,"

He hesitated for a moment, but still agreed and went out to prepare breakfast for her.

After breakfast, Ah Cai was in a daze for a moment, looking at Cheng Yu and said, "That dream was really real. I clearly felt the moment the bullet entered my forehead. It still hurts a little now."

Hearing this, Cheng Yu raised his head and forced a smile, saying, "Maybe you've been studying too hard during this period!"

"No, it has always been like this."

"Don't think too much. Drink the milk and go back to your room to change clothes."

When Acai walked into the room, he couldn't help but cry.

After wiping away his tears and thinking about how to tell her about this, he suddenly heard a "bang" in the room. He ran in and saw her staring blankly at the tablet computer. A bottle of skin care products was broken on the ground.

"What's wrong? Are you scratched?"

I quickly pulled her hand over to check.

"…It's true, isn't it?"

"That was not a dream, it was real?" she murmured.

Cheng Yu followed her gaze and looked at the computer, which clearly reported yesterday's news about them.

Now that things have come to this, let’s tell the truth!

"Yes, it's true,"

"You were kidnapped at the school gate, and I chased after you to save you, but they killed us both."

"Um?……"

She looked as if she had heard a fairy tale.

"I am immortal and I am fine. I used the inner energy of my soul to save you."

"Just a few hours ago, I went to seek revenge,"

"ah??"

She was a little confused and stared at Cheng Yu blankly. It took her a while to accept this bizarre thing.

Fortunately, I had experienced his transformation from Yin to Yang before, so it was not difficult to accept what happened now.

Suddenly, she thought of something, touched her belly and asked nervously, "Where is our baby?"

"...no more,"

Cheng Yu said with difficulty,

"…Gone?!!"

Ah Cai's tears flowed immediately. Although she knew that he would only be there for a few days, she was still very sad.

He held her in his arms and comforted her, "It's okay, we will have children again."

"But now there is one most important thing. Although you are fine now, it does not mean that you will be fine in the future. If you want to solve the problem once and for all, the best way is to find another Yuanling Gem for you, so that we can be together forever."

"...Where can I find it?"

Ah Cai wiped away her tears, raised her head and asked doubtfully,

"My hometown,"

"Return to xx Cemetery?"

"No, it's where I was born, in Bianjing, Northern Song Dynasty a thousand years ago. It was there that I met the Taoist priest who gave me the Yuanling Gem."

Hearing this, Ah Cai's eyes widened as big as lanterns.

No joke?

Traveling back to the Northern Song Dynasty a thousand years ago, this is a plot that only exists in TV novels, right?

She stammered, "... wear, wear... how to wear it??"

"Let's go to Kunlun Mountain. I've been there before. There is a place where heaven and earth meet, and it is the boundary point of yin and yang. Every thousand years, a time tunnel will automatically form. We can go through it and return to the Northern Song Dynasty."

Ah Cai was stunned for a long time before she came to her senses and asked, "How many things have you not told me?"

"I have lived for a thousand years, so I must have seen a lot of things. It is impossible for me to tell you everything. Anyway, I will definitely not lie to you if you ask me."

That's right, she asked again, "...So, when do we leave?"

"I booked a flight for 10 o'clock and need to go to the airport two hours in advance. It's 7 o'clock now, and I still have an hour."

"Ah??? So fast?"

She screamed, forgetting even her sorrow,

"This is the fastest flight. It would be very troublesome if someone found out that we were resurrected from the dead,"

Yes, what he said made sense. It would be troublesome if someone found out. She immediately became nervous and said, "Then I'll change my clothes right now."

"Well, you need to change into those outdoor clothes. Take your backpack. We still have some time. I'll see what else I can bring."

After that, the two of them went to clean up separately.

At eight o'clock, they drove to the airport with their luggage!

After ten o'clock, the two boarded the plane smoothly.

……

After fifteen hours, the plane finally landed at the international airport in S City. As soon as he got off the plane, Cheng Yu immediately bought a ticket to Qinghai.

The Kunlun Mountains span several provinces including Qinghai, Tibet, Sichuan and Xinqiang, and they are heading towards Qinghai.

After another five hours of flying, we arrived at Qinghai Airport. After leaving the airport, Acai was so tired that she needed to find a hotel to stay in.

After this incident, Cheng Yu found that her physical condition had deteriorated a lot.

After resting for two days, he went to the car dealership to rent a Hummer off-road vehicle, filled the trunk with supplies, and took her to the entrance of Kunlun Mountains.

The car was speeding on the road. After a few days of transition, Ah Cai's mood gradually improved and she became more talkative.

At first, there were a lot of cars on the road, but as we drove further and further into the countryside, the number of people on the road began to decrease.

We drove for more than ten days and finally there was no trail left, so we had to abandon the car and hike into the mountains.

Cheng Yu took a large backpack from the car and took out a shoulder strap from it.

This baby sling was specially customized not long after he went to Country M. It is made of very tough fabric and was inspired by the baby sling that Ah Cai used when she was a child.

Because he found that the security in Country M was very poor, if he wanted to escape one day, it would be very convenient to carry her on his back.

This thing comes in handy now.

Ah Cai felt quite comfortable being carried on his back. He took out a cloak and draped it over her back. He folded the bottom of the cloak and stuffed it inside her feet, then tied it up with a rope.

This poncho is also custom-made. It is warm and waterproof. It can be used as a sleeping bag when zipped up, and can be used as a waterproof garment when it rains.

This way, she was completely wrapped up, with only her face exposed, to prevent her from being scratched by branches on the mountain or from insects and mosquitoes getting into her clothes, shoes and socks.

The big backpack was on her front, and her small backpack was hung diagonally on her waist.

Ready, set, go!

Cheng Yu walked very fast. Sometimes he would take a shortcut. When the shortcut disappeared, he would jump up and grab some branches and vines, swing over like a monkey, or directly jump over another mountain.

At this time, Ah Cai would let out a scream from behind, and then burst into a happy giggle.

The two of them understand each other, she is happy and he is happy too!

This journey becomes more wonderful because of the company of others.

The less populated the place, the better the scenery!

They were like entering a fantasy forest, with rolling mountains, towering snow-capped peaks, vast meadows, various strange peaks and ridges, rare animals and plants,

Dozens of Tibetan antelopes just ran by here, a brown bear was hiding there, and there were also wolves, sika deer, wild donkeys, wild horses and various unknown wild flowers.

Although the climate here is cold and humid, and the air is thin,

But with the protection of Yuanling Qi, Ah Cai felt like she was in a constant temperature box, looking at the scenery and singing songs. It was so comfortable!

Cheng Yu would sometimes hunt wild animals such as Tibetan antelopes, hares, and pheasants. He would also find eggs of various birds, as well as wild vegetables and fruits, in the trees and grass.

He brought a small pot made in Germany for outdoor cooking. He would put the chopped meat in the pot when making porridge and rice. Sometimes he would grill the meat and add some salt and barbecue seasoning. For the staple food, he brought a bag of rice, a dozen bundles of noodles, and seasonings such as salt, sugar, and five-spice powder.

Ah Cai doesn't eat much, so this is enough for her to eat for more than half a month. If she eats meat and eggs together, these staple foods can last for more than a month. She has a picky mouth, so the food has to be changed frequently.

She found this journey of walking around and having fun like this so interesting!
