Chapter 391 Heavenly Master 98
As the Moonlight Shadow Technique concluded, on the enlarged detailed national map beside it, the little straw doll representing Zhu Yanling also arrived in front of a small village’s name, clearly indicating this is where Zhu Yanling is located.
The Zhu Family felt both angered by Zhu Yanling’s experience and worried about her current situation. When Zhu Yanling went missing, she was only eighteen, right before attending college. Now Zhu Yanhua has been graduated from college for a year, yet no one can say for sure what Zhu Yanling’s situation is like now.
But everyone tried not to think the worst, and Zhu Yanhua couldn’t help but turn to Situ Shuangshuang, seeking support as she asked, "Master, my sister is definitely still alive, right?"
Situ Shuangshuang paused for a moment and said calmly, "She’s indeed still alive. If your sister were dead, the Moonlight Shadow Technique would have shown you her spirit and corpse, but clearly, that’s not the case now, which means your sister has been alive all this time. You just have to go find her."
Due to the Linzhi Technique within the Nine-character True Words, Situ Shuangshuang’s mood had remained sufficiently calm, a level of peace akin to Buddhist detachment, which previously would have been almost impossible. Without the Linzhi Technique, upon seeing such a situation, Situ Shuangshuang’s anger would have surged to the top of her head!
To ensure that Zhu Yanling could be found one hundred percent, Situ Shuangshuang was to embark on the journey with Zhu Yanhua and her parents to find Zhu Yanling. Primarily, she was worried that if the place were a village entirely united in xenophobia and used to buying brides, without her company, Zhu Yanhua and her parents might not be able to bring Zhu Yanling back.
With a master like Situ Shuangshuang accompanying them, Zhu Yanhua and her parents naturally wouldn’t refuse. After a few hours of rest post-midnight, the group set off at the break of dawn by car, beginning their journey to find Zhu Yanling.
Thanks to the straw doll indicating the direction earlier, the group smoothly reached the village where Zhu Yanling had been staying all along.
At first, Situ Shuangshuang had intended to pose as visitors to the mountains and find a villager’s home to stay the night. Unexpectedly, to the surprise of Situ Shuangshuang and her companions, the folk customs in this small mountain village were quite simple. Although it was deep within the mountains, due to the direct road connection to the outside, it wasn’t isolated.
The scenery in this village was excellent and known as a natural oxygen bar. Moreover, the village chief had good foresight. He had long promoted amongst the villagers the idea of getting rich by building roads. Nine years ago, the villagers themselves connected over ten villages to the outside world, spending a year constructing a road out of the mountains!
