The monks were admitted to the hospital. Japan had its own City Hunters too, but since the problem had been resolved, the monks did not want any more trouble.
Back at Yanming Temple, Mo Fan hurried his way to where Mu Ningxue was resting and saw her awake. Nan Rongni was feeding her some aromatic mushroom soup.
Mo Fan smiled when he learned that she was fine.
”Strange, I thought I was sleeping for a long time. Why is the sun just setting when I woke up?” asked Zhao Manyan in a confused voice.
It turned out that the guy was still clueless about what happened. Mo Fan was too lazy to explain it to him.
”When we came back, the people whose souls were kidnapped before woke up too. However, their souls were separated from their bodies for too long. Their souls had lost too much energy. Even if they managed to wake up, their bodies would be extremely weak, and their lifespan would be reduced too. It is difficult to revert the damage done to a human soul,” said Jiang Yu.
”They always say Japan has lots of ghosts; we already stumbled into one, even though we're staying at a temple. Such luck!”
”The Magic Association of Xixiong City must be investigating it now. They will soon discover that we're here illegally. We should leave as soon as possible. We're still quite far away from Tokyo,” said Nanyu.
Xixiong City was the westernmost place in Japan, while Tokyo was located in the east. They basically had to travel across all of Japan to reach there. It was quite a long journey without taking a plane.

The team was prepared to leave Xixiong City early the next morning. Nan Rongni was walking around holding a bowl of medicine in her hand.
”Did anyone see Zhao Manyan? He hasn't drunk his medicine yet,” asked Nan Rongni.
”Nope, did he seriously go missing again early in the morning? Damn, don't tell me something happened to him again?” Mo Fan's heart tightened.
”Isn't he right there!?” Jiang Yu pointed at the path leading to the back of the mountain.
Zhao Manyan hurriedly returned from the back of the mountain and regrouped with the others. Gong Yu who was still holding a grudge against him snapped coldly as the team had wasted some time waiting for his return, ”Can you not run off for no reason? Do you seriously think we're on vacation?”
Zhao Manyan was too lazy to talk to Gong Yu. He sidled over to Mo Fan and nudged him, ”Hey, I have something to tell you, I had a very long dream last night, it's related to the temple in the back of the mountain. The dream was too complicated, so I can't really explain it all to you, but I feel like everything has happened for a reason...”
”Err, didn't anyone tell you what happened?” said Mo Fan.
”What happened... (sigh), don't worry about it now, I've gone straight to the back of the mountain after I woke up, guess what I found there?” said Zhao Manyan in a mysterious tone. His eyes were flickering with joy.
”I bet you found a wooden clapper with carvings of some ancient words on it,” replied Mo Fan.
Zhao Manyan was dumbfounded. He raised his thumb at Mo Fan and said, ”You're a f**king genius, how did you guess it? It's a wooden clapper indeed. The place was exactly the same as what I saw in my dream, so I took the wooden clapper with me. I'm sure that it's a piece of treasure!”
