Chapter 297 Fish Ferry
As if the caller had angered the jasper, a barrage of ice blades lashed at him relentlessly. As the caller dodged, the river water transformed into giant ice spikes, slowly gathering the faint light from the millions of jasper stones, like a million mirrors pieced together, reflecting millions of callers.
"Waaaaaah, hey, why am I hitting myself?"
The caller in the mirror and the caller on the shore both dropped their arms from their heads, their pupils dilated in shock. Then, one of the callers in the mirror cried out.
"Wa ...
"Why does it seem like I am bigger than myself?"
"Hey, why am I hitting myself?"
His clumsy intonation seemed like he was struggling to imitate the caller. Then, he slowly adjusted his intonation to match the caller's voice perfectly.
"Waaaaaah, hey, why am I hitting myself?"
Then, more callers began.
"Waaaaaah, hey, why am I hitting myself?"
"Who is he? So scary! Hey, why is he hitting me?"
"Kill him! How horrible!"
The millions of people in the mirror, who were speaking more and more fluently, gradually became united from being awkward, shouting in panic, "Kill him! He's a fake!"
"Kill him! He's a dummy!"
Thousands of dry and old hands stretched out from the mirror, each palm holding an illusory stream of light, and the light spots turned into meteors and flew straight towards the caller!
“Boom! Boom!”
The roar of the explosion was enough to deafen people, and the entire area within a hundred steps where the caller was was bombed by meteors into a huge abyss!
But within the giant cave, the ground beneath Huzhe's feet remained intact. Standing on the only remaining earth pillars around him, he pointed blankly at his face.
"Am I fake? I don't even know."
Unable to bear it any longer, the skinny dog jumped off Luo Xuanyi's shoulder, ran out of the bushes and barked sharply at the person calling out.
"Woof!"
The dazed Huzhe was shocked all over and immediately turned around and yelled: "You've gone too far! I'm going to complain to Bo Huixiao!" After that, he jumped out from the earth pillar angrily, turned his back to the prism, grabbed his sleeves and rushed towards Luo Xuanyi.
Luo Xuanyi silently retreated further, but the emerald-stone spirit beast would not miss this opportunity. The prism suddenly emitted a brilliant light, and the mirror surface rippled. The hands that had been holding the flowing light loosened their grip and slowly pressed against the edge of the mirror.
The uncomfortable sound of water, like a living creature sinking into a swamp, rang out one after another. Thousands of callers, with their heads as thin as skeletons, emerged from the mirror and grinned at the callers who turned around.
They stretched out their hands, their arms stretched out as if boneless, and countless hands tightly grasped the caller, grabbing his eyeballs, holding his neck, and his whole body was covered with withered hands.
Pulling the caller towards the prism, the eerie voice echoed simultaneously in millions of mouths.
"Come with us...become the real you..."
The caller's mouth twitched.
"Help! There's a pervert!"
The complaint was instantly forgotten. The caller frantically pushed forward with both palms, but despite no spiritual energy fluctuations, all his palms were instantly severed by invisible objects. He hugged his arms tightly to protect his hunched, shrunken chest, and kicked the prism with tears in his eyes!
“Woo woo!”
“Click, snap!”
The prism cracked!
Luo Xuanyi had long known that Huzhe was powerful, but seeing this, she was speechless.
The prism shattered completely in the blink of an eye, countless fragments flying into the river. The jade stone lost its luster and dimmed, but the caller remained unyielding, crying as he pulled out his belt and threw it into the river!
“Crash!”
The entire river flew into the air and instantly evaporated into the clouds!
On the dry riverbed, devoid of a single drop of water, thousands of emerald stones lay silently. If they had any expression, it would probably be one of dullness.
Seeing that the person who was shouting was still full of resentment and was about to beat him to the bottom of the river again, a stone suddenly jumped out from the green stone and spoke.
"Wait, please spare us!"
"Bah! Shameless!" Huzhe gritted his teeth and was about to hit the jade stone with his belt. Luo Xuanyi, who had walked over silently, reached out and grabbed his arm.
"Alright, alright, don't be angry." Luo Xuanyi comforted him perfunctorily, automatically playing the good cop, "You were the one who touched her first, so don't be too extreme."
Seeing that Luo Xuanyi seemed easygoing, Bishi jumped repeatedly as if nodding in agreement. The caller looked back and forth between Luo Xuanyi and Bishi, sobbing and glaring fiercely at Bishi. He turned his back to her, indicating that he had not forgiven her for the trauma she had caused him.
The skinny dog walked to his feet and barked a few times. The caller suddenly squatted down with a ferocious look on his face and argued with it in a low voice, but no one knew what he was saying.
Luo Xuanyi left the caller feeling awkward, putting pressure on Bishi, and then said to Bishi with a smile, "What should I call you?"
Thousands of jade stones lying in the riverbed slowly shed clear water from their bodies, gradually refilling the riverbed. The jade stone leading the conversation with Luo Xuanyi swam in the water and said politely, "Hello, we are Yudu, the domain master of Heyao Mountain. We don't have individual names. If you prefer, please call me Yudu. I sincerely apologize to you and your companions."
This was the first time Luo Xuanyi had seen a creature shaped like a jade stone. It didn't even have facial features. However, since it could speak, it must be a spirit beast with a spiritual fetus. Its spiritual fetus resonated with the heavens and earth, causing its voice to automatically transform into human language in Luo Xuanyi's ears.
Since this was the first spiritual beast she encountered that could communicate, Luo Xuanyi naturally couldn't miss this good opportunity to collect information and answer questions.
"My name is Bo Huixiao, and this old man is called Huzhe. We came to the Zhongqu Mountains for some reason. I don't want to clash with you, but Huzhe is relatively free, so I can't accept your apology on his behalf."
"I won't forgive you!" the caller snorted without even raising his head.
"Is that so?" Yudu said, floating gently in the river. His tone suddenly changed. "But the monks trespassed into my territory without permission and arrested my people without even asking. I thought they were poaching my people again. So, it was you, Huzhe, who made the mistake first, right?"
The caller stood with his back to Yudu and remained motionless, pretending to be dead to avoid his own fault.
However, Yu Du did not continue the conversation, instead politely saying to Luo Xuanyi, "Regardless, we did overreact. Seeing as you seemed able to communicate, it seems you weren't one of those poaching thieves. To express my apologies, if there's anything I can help with, please feel free to ask."
The way he spoke was just like a clerk who had been dealing with people for a long time. A few words made even those who wanted to poach feel embarrassed to continue.
Unfortunately, this trick didn't work on Luo Xuanyi. If she didn't just want to get the news, she wouldn't bother to stop the Huzhe from strangling Yu Du. After all, Yu Du had attacked them anyway.
Luo Xuanyi clasped her hands together and smiled happily, "That's great! A friendly exchange is the best. I'm worried about not knowing enough about the Zhongqu Mountains."
"Without further ado, do you know Yuqiong Mountain?"
First update~The caller is an old man. This scene has no aesthetic appeal at all. I want to laugh when writing it. Haha
