Chapter 94 Chapter 94 Looking for Xunli④
"It's an illusion."
Hearing the word "illusion", Ji Yong remembered the appearance of Xunli and the wooden sword that Qi Jiayi showed when he appeared.
Could it be that there is someone in Yun Village with the same ability as her?
At that time, he didn't even think about touching the wooden sword to see if it was real. The scene before him was too shocking and so real.
Ding-ling-ling~~
The ringing of the cell phone interrupted Ji Yong's thoughts. He picked it up and saw that it was his master calling.
Ji Yong did not pick up the phone immediately, but hesitated. During the few moments he hesitated, Han Ji had already led him into Yun Village.
Ji Yong was just looking at his phone, not knowing what had happened. He only felt that the lively scene just now disappeared in an instant.
Men, women, young and old, children and livestock all disappeared, and what was before their eyes was a destroyed village with broken walls and ruins. The walls, beams, and scattered tables and chairs were all covered with ivy.
At first glance, all you see is devastation and desolation, which is the polar opposite of the bustling and bustling scene just now.
The ground was also full of weeds, some as tall as humans, making it impossible to find a place to stand.
Due to this delay, the phone had been hung up at some point, but it did beep twice.
Ji Yong pressed his finger and heard his master's voice: "You stubborn boy, you didn't even answer my phone call. I haven't beaten you in a few years, are you itching for a beating?"
Mixed in with his roar were the voices of others persuading him to get down to business.
"Don't go to Yun Village. Stop right now. Your senior brother is still alive and has been in the hospital all these years. I didn't tell you because I was afraid you would get impulsive. Stop right now and don't go in, understand?"
Qi Jiayi raised his hand and pointed at the square object in Ji Yong's hand. It was similar to the token used by the sect and had the same effect.
The other party said Xunli was in the hospital.
Ji Yong shook his head, obviously not believing it: "I have been asking around for information about my senior brother over the past five years. If he is really in the hospital, there is no way I don't know."
His master must have said this on purpose to deceive him.
Putting away his phone, Ji Yong looked around and said, "Put me down."
As soon as he finished speaking, Han Ji let him go.
Qi Jiayi didn't know the people here and didn't know their authenticity, but after entering Yun Village, she sensed a sense of familiarity.
Four days after entering the Small Thousand World, this was the first time she caught a familiar breath.
We must explore this Yun Village.
There are broken walls and ruins everywhere, as well as traces of fighting. Although covered with weeds, one can still get a glimpse of the cruelty of the battle.
Just as Ji Yong reached out to pull off the ivy and touch the marks on the wall, the detector on his wrist flashed, alternating between blue and yellow.
A few low growls were heard.
A group of weird creatures appeared one after another. At a rough glance, there were about thirty or forty of them, all of which were level one or two weird creatures.
Ji Yong pulled out a wooden sword from his backpack and rushed forward, not forgetting to say to Qi Jiayi: "Find a safe place."
The first and second level weirdness were like melons in front of Ji Yong, and he defeated them one by one.
Qi Jiayi glanced at him and saw that he was handling it well, so he didn't help.
If it really can't be solved, it won't be too late for her to help.
She is not from this world. If she always helps out and interferes in too many things, what will happen after she leaves?
At this moment, Qi Jiayi thought of Xun Li. When she was training, he always took action at the critical moment, and most of the time he left her to deal with it on her own.
Was his mentality at the time the same as hers now?
Ji Yong is quite capable. Even though he is injured, these level one and level two monsters are no match to him, and he handles them quite quickly.
While he was solving the strange problem, Qi Jiayi had already checked the surroundings and found that most of the traces left were swords, magical tools, talismans and bullets.
Even though it is covered by weeds and green shade, the traces are clearly visible because no one cleans it.
The traces of a long-standing fight were still spreading, and the two men continued to walk inside following the traces.
After walking for a while, Qi Jiayi saw traces of Xunli's unique sword moves. There was only one, but it was easy to recognize.
At the same time, strange things happened around again, and Ji Yong noticed that the detector on his wrist sounded an alarm.
This time, there was a group of level three creatures mixed with a few level twos and a few level fours.
Ji Yong was having a hard time fighting, so Qi Jiayi thought about it and Han Ji went up to help.
With Han Ji's help, Ji Yong quickly ended the battle.
While he was catching his breath, Qi Jiayi finished his inspection:
"From the village entrance to here, judging from the traces, the weirdness you are facing now is also what those people who came in before faced. There are many weirdnesses and traces left by the mysterious master here, and the new ones cover the old ones."
Not only the original five people including Xunli, but also the people who came in later, all traces were preserved, some deep and some shallow.
Ji Yong held the wooden sword tightly. "How could this happen? The original mission showed that it was just a level 3 monster. Is the intelligence wrong or..."
Or is someone deliberately spreading false information?
After defeating the third and fourth level monsters, they arrived at the foot of the mountain.
The traces of the fight did not disappear, but continued to spread towards the mountain.
The temperature on the mountain was low, and there was already white mist in Ji Yong's breath.
There was also icicles on the leaves.
Two weird ones pounced out from the left and right to attack Ji Yong, but Ji Yong dodged them. With the cooperation of Han Ji, he killed the weird ones.
Ji Yong glanced at the strange corpse, and the white mist he exhaled dissipated when it touched the frozen leaves. "This shouldn't be the case. Strange creatures are afraid of cold, and winter is the time when they appear least. It's so cold here, how can there be so many strange creatures?"
The higher you go in the mountain, the lower the temperature gets, but strangely, there is no snow on this mountain.
The peaks of the mountains next to it were covered in snow, but this mountain was frozen and there was no snow.
When we were almost at the top of the mountain, we suddenly heard a rustling sound.
The detector on the wrist was sirening like crazy, alternating between orange and red, indicating danger.
Normally when we go on missions, most of the monsters appear alone, but in this Yun Village, the monsters appear in groups.
At this time, five level five monsters appeared together.
Ji Yong swallowed his saliva. Putting aside the five level five monsters, the ten level four monsters in front of him were enough to make him feel difficult.
Qi Jiayi put down her hand, and Han Ji flew into her palm, "Quick battle, quick decision."
The further up the mountain you go, the stronger the sense of familiarity becomes.
She was fed up with the numerous obstacles blocking her way.
Apart from the upgraded weirdness of the first time Ji Yong saw Qi Jiayi take action, he didn't see her take action afterwards, and the sword that helped him before was the same one.
At this moment, seeing her swinging the sword again, Ji Yong was filled with amazement. The sword-training genius who had made him remember for many years was his senior brother.
Envy and jealousy, that was a talent he could never catch up with no matter how hard he tried.
At this moment, the amazing swordsmanship made him remember one more person deeply in his heart.
Seeing that only one domain appeared, Qi Jiayi sighed.
It takes five level five monsters to appear in one domain, which is a bit bad.
"Let's go."
The two men reached the top of the mountain and saw a charred stump of a giant tree.
The tree stump is so big that it would probably take seven or eight people holding hands to wrap around it.
Traces of the fight extended all the way to the stump of the giant tree.
Ji Yong stepped forward and looked up at the stump, which was taller than him even when broken: "Such a thick tree is actually broken."
How serious was the battle five years ago.
Looking at the marks left on the tree stump, it looks like it was burned, but it should have turned into carbonization or ash after being burned. However, the stump and the fallen trunk are still there, just charred all over.
Ji Yong was filled with regret. This should have been his misfortune, but he let his senior brother suffer it instead.
Qi Jiayi recognized at a glance that the marks on the tree trunk were caused by lightning.
She flew into the air and looked down. When she saw what was inside the stump, she floated closer.
"Why are you here?" he asked in surprise.
In the middle of the broken giant tree, there stood a sword of similar color, with cracks all over the sword body. It was obviously Xunli's wooden sword.
Where the wooden sword was inserted into the tree stump, there was a touch of tender green, a tender branch as long as a finger, with two tender buds on the branch slightly curled up, seeming to be neither unfolded nor unfurled.
It seems to express that life is endless.
Ji Yong climbed up the tree stump using his hands and feet. He saw the wooden sword in the middle of the stump and said, "Master Brother's sword."
Han Ji patted the wooden sword and jumped up and down in front of Qi Jiayi, as if he wanted to express something.
After looking at it for a while, she roughly guessed that Han Ji meant that it came here with the wooden sword.
"You are here? Where is my brother?"
Qi Jiayi knew what the familiarity he had sensed before came from; it came from the wooden sword.
But what about Xunli?
Ji Yong flipped into the tree stump, came to the center of the stump, and saw that the wooden sword was covered with cracks: "How could this happen?"
At this moment, the sky began to darken and stars appeared in the sky.
Qi Jiayi expanded his spiritual sense and found that there was no trace of Xunli's soul in the entire Yun Village and the surrounding mountains.
However, she did find something under the stump of the giant tree.
Ji Yong didn't dare to reach out and touch the wooden sword, for he was afraid that his senior brother's sword would be broken by him.
But he stood beside the wooden sword, looking at the cracks on it, wondering what he was thinking.
When he looked up, he found that Qi Jiayi was gone: "..."
Passing through the tree stumps, Qi Jiayi made his way underground.
The underground river is flowing, but you can only hear the sound but cannot see what is actually happening.
When Qi Jiayi was on top, he discovered some red living creature. Now he could see the red glowing thing from a long distance, and it also illuminated the underground river.
The glowing red thing was a bulging meat egg, entangled and hanging in the center of the cave.
The egg is alive, and there is an underground river underneath the egg.
When she arrived, the egg was still splitting, and the separated parts fell into the underground river and floated away along the river.
No wonder there are so many weird things in Yun Village, it turns out there is a weird mother body here.
As Qi Jiayi got closer, the meat eggs seemed to be stimulated. A string of small meat eggs of different colors broke apart, fell into the river below, and floated away.
"Don't even think about running away."
Qi Jiayi tried to stop him immediately, but she had no physical body.
The whip that Han Ji transformed into was only able to tie up three or four monsters that had not yet been taken away by the dark river.
After the red egg split, it left behind a huge red spider web, which was much larger than the first time I saw it.
Qi Jiayi glanced at the rolling dark river and went straight into the spider web.
Unexpectedly, after entering, she found that there were many people in this area.
Ji Yong was also inside, tears still on his face. His crying stopped abruptly, and he looked dazed and alert.
On the other side, there was a large group of people holding weapons she had never seen before.
Among the crowd, Qi Jiayi saw a familiar face, the person she had been looking for for several days.
He immediately floated over and appeared in front of Xun Li: "Senior Brother."
After shouting, Qi Jiayi was stunned, because Xunli's eyes were unfamiliar. No, the way he looked at her was unfamiliar.
