Chapter 103 Chapter 103 "Since it's not true,...
"Since it's not true, then it's no big deal if we remember it, right?"
"Yeah, since it's not true anyway, why don't you tell us in detail the parts we didn't see? We are doing serious work, not gossiping!"
"Even if they knew about it, it wouldn't be a big deal. They won't punish us just because we work hard, right? Tell us, tell us!"
The disciples in the interrogation office surrounded Li Qinglian, blocking her way. Li Qinglian was helpless and could not leave. She could only frown and explain reluctantly: "Things are not what you think!"
People exchanged glances and laughed, "So what do you think it is like? We are all here to listen! We promise we won't spread rumors!"
Li Qinglian coughed twice, a little embarrassed and awkward, like a sheepdog that was caught playing with a lamb while its owner was not at home. Her voice was soft and low, wishing no one knew, and she said slowly: "We went out to perform the mission, and I was separated from the two of them. I don't know what happened between them.
But it is certainly different from what you just saw, because there is no trace on them that could possibly be related to what you just saw."
He wanted to leave immediately after he finished speaking, but people didn't let him go. One by one, they reached out their hands to hold him, like a group of giant octopuses, holding him in place. The atmosphere was very lively, as if they were making a fuss. They asked with a smile: "Then you didn't ask them? They wore such beautiful and expensive clothes, but they really didn't do anything?"
It would have been fine if they didn't ask, but when they suddenly brought up the clothes, Li Qinglian suddenly remembered seeing the two of them overlapping each other in the dressing room, with even their clothes tangled. Her face suddenly turned red, and she hesitated as if she thought of something she couldn't say.
People laughed, and were even more certain that he must know something but was not comfortable saying it, so they said, "So that's it, we know it! You don't have to tell me!"
"You know nothing!" Li Qinglian's face turned red, she said loudly and ran away quickly.
People laughed even louder in the back.
At this time, Li Hanshuang and Li Baili, who had just finished a meeting, packed up their things, changed back into their original clothes, and prepared to go to the Demon Island to set up a magic circle.
After all, I said it at the meeting, and I can’t delay it for too long. If I wait too long, I might forget what I originally wanted to do.
Li Qinglian met them on the road and wanted to say something, but when he saw their faces, he remembered the incomplete dream that was spit out by the dream eater that he and the disciples of the interrogation office had seen before. His face suddenly turned red, and he ran away in the blink of an eye, as if there was a fire burning behind him.
Li Baili raised her eyebrows and looked behind him. There was no one behind him. When she tried to look for him again, she couldn't find him anymore. He was quite fast.
Li Hanshuang asked with some confusion: "When did we do anything to him?"
Li Baihe thought for a moment and said with a smile, "It's hard to say."
Li Hanshuang also thought about it, nodded and said: "That's true, I don't know what they are thinking about in their daily lives, just do whatever they want."
He sighed and laughed, with a hint of irritation in his sarcasm. His voice was so light, like a translucent ribbon blown away by the wind, and he said to Li Baili, "It's none of my business anyway."
"I don't care about it anyway!" Li Hanshuang shook his head, lowered his eyes, frowned slightly, a sneer flashed across his face, and then he regained his composure.
"Come to my place!" Li Baili pulled Li Hanshuang and the two of them entered the Demon Island.
The demons were playing Cuju, and in the middle was a white ball. At first glance it looked like a bamboo cage, but upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a round ball made of bamboo with a white cat inside.
That white cat looked familiar. It seemed to be the same one that Li Baili and Li Hanshuang asked Li Qinglian to send over before.
Li Baili sighed: "Are they quite happy?"
Li Hanshuang blinked, and his eyes followed the movement of the kicked ball. He looked at it for a while, as if he cared a lot, but also seemed absent-minded. He replied, "I am very happy."
When the demons saw the two of them, they stopped, and even the ball rolling on the ground stopped. The white cat opened his eyes and looked out from the gap in the bamboo ball.
"Is there anything we can do?" The demons looked at Li Baili respectfully and with a little expectation, as if they were a group of big golden retrievers sitting at the door with a rope in their mouths, ready to go out, and asked.
"I'll come back to set up a magic circle. You just need to help." Li Baili nodded and gave them instructions in a very skillful and casual manner.
The demons nodded.
After setting up the formation, Li Baili let them go and play. Before they left, she told them the results of the meeting in Penglai and asked them to pay attention to it.
They nodded to show that they understood and went to play.
Not long after, the entire Demon Island suddenly shook violently, as if something big was happening. Li Baili and Li Hanshuang walked to the edge of the Demon Island and looked out.
Outside is a rough sea. A tsunami has occurred on the sea, with strong winds and huge waves coming one after another, as if there will never be a chance of calm on this sea again.
There were lightning and thunder in the sky and dark clouds were gathering. It looked like a huge rock was about to roll down from the sky. There was a crackling sound of lightning, and after a while, there was a rumble of thunder.
Finally, there was a violent storm that sounded like gongs, drums and firecrackers, and even hail fell from the sky, and at the same time, there were fireballs.
The flames rolled and gurgled, a huge one, emitting thick black smoke and a crackling sound. When they touched the water, they screamed and made a hissing sound. When they touched the dense rain, it was like a group of people running away and falling into the sea. It was like a firecracker that suddenly exploded, exploding with a bang, and the raindrops in all directions were mixed with broken stones and ashes.
Li Hanshuang suddenly received a message from Li Qinglian, picked up the token and asked, "What's going on?"
Li Qinglian's voice was tense and anxious, and even trembling slightly, as if she had never encountered such a situation before, so she was a little confused and at a loss. The background sound was the same chaotic horror as here. She said intermittently: "It was raining, fireballs and hail were falling from the sky, the sea was very unsettled, and the ground was shaking. We don't know yet whether it's just the sea, or just us, or the whole world."
"Before this happened," Li Hanshuang asked with a frown, "what did the astrologers say? Didn't they notice anything?"
Li Qinglian's voice was a little shrill, as if he was shouting, and it sounded strangely terrified and busy: "It happened the moment they warned us, and they didn't know about it much earlier than we did. By the time they noticed it, it was too late to inform us."
Li Qinglian paused for a moment, then calmed down a bit and said, "The patrol disciples have reported back that the situation on the sea is the worst, and there is only a little movement on the ground, which is much better than here."
The astrologer's terrified scream came from the other side: "The land has cracked! Soon it will be the same as us, or even worse than us! This is what the divination results show! We must act quickly, no matter what we do! Hurry! Otherwise it will be too late, hurry up! Hurry!"
There was a kind of whispering of people in the background sound, and before long, the sound gradually became louder, from soft voices to loud quarrels, very noisy. There were also sounds of footsteps, collisions, friction, and something collapsing, all mixed together, like a disaster was about to happen, and it was very annoying to listen to.
Li Hanshuang could even vaguely hear someone shouting over there: "God wants us to die! We can't survive! Find a way to escape! Let's die together!"
"My family members are still outside! I can't just ignore them! They will definitely die if they encounter such a situation! I have to save them! Let me go! There are so many people here, there must be someone who is alone. Don't worry about relatives and friends, just let them obey my orders! Don't look for me! I have things to do!"
"It will be too late if you don't go now!"
Li Hanshuang frowned, his voice was cold, as if he had a piece of ice in his mouth, very calm, as if he had not witnessed a great disaster with his own eyes and ears, which was in progress, and indirectly contacted those who had been destroyed, but just saw the neighbor's untied small dog barking in the street, with a hint of disdain in his sarcasm: "Isn't it expected that the world and Penglai would encounter such a thing recently?
I have already said this in the previous meeting. Don't you have any solution? Are you just going to let them run around and scream while reporting to me? Do they think that Penglai is so easy to enter and leave? Where are the elders? Are they all dead?"
Li Qinglian was silent for a while, then replied, "Please wait a moment."
Penglai had already had regulations, that was certain. In fact, relevant meetings had been held, but they were not attended by all, so it could not be considered a large-scale mobilization.
Although Li Hanshuang did not participate, he also knew about it.
The elders quickly gathered together and discussed in the open space how to deal with the current situation.
The disciples huddled together behind the elders, making a lot of noise, like a bunch of baby birds hiding in a bird's nest, waiting to beg for food.
Li Qinglian gave his disciples a large-scale silencing spell.
The scene immediately fell silent, with only the voices of the elders remaining. The moment the elders felt the environment had quieted down, they also stopped talking and looked at Li Qinglian.
In the silence, Li Qinglian held the token and said to Li Hanshuang in a serious, calm and indifferent manner: "Under the current situation, I'm afraid you still need to take charge of the situation yourself."
