In "Yunnan Worm Valley", why was Hu Bayi found the Muchen Bead that Partridge Whistle had never found?

Partridge Whistle never found Muchen Bead in his life, but it was found by his granddaughter Shirley Yang.

Hu Bayi and Partridge Whistle are looking for Muchen Beads not for immortality, but for survival.

Partridge Whistle is a member of the Zagrama tribe. The entire tribe has a hereditary curse. This curse means that one will die due to blood coagulation at the age of 50, and no one can solve it. When it came to Partridge Whistle's generation, Partridge Whistle knew that the Muchen Bead could lift the curse, so he traveled across thousands of mountains and rivers in search of the Muchen Bead. This is how Taoist Banshan didn't ask for money, only for the elixir of immortality.

Hu Bayi looked for Muchen Bead because he was cursed by the ghost eye. The ghost eye curse was caused by entering a ghost cave in the ancient city of Jingjue. The ghost cave has strong radiation, so Hu Bayi and others were infected and could only find the Muchen Bead to relieve it.

Location:

According to the timeline in "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", the Muchen Bead was first discovered by Wu Ding, the 32nd generation monarch of the Shang Dynasty, and then King Wen of Zhou took it. This incident is recorded in the Book of Heaven.

At the end of the Qin Dynasty, this divine artifact fell into the hands of the King of Dian in southern Yunnan, and then passed to the hands of King Xian, who took the bead and hid it in the Insect Valley.

The Muchen Beads that appeared after this, and the Muchen Beads that appeared after this, were all fake, which is why Partridge Whistle searched so many tombs but couldn't find them.
