In the mountains, at the guesthouse, Dongfang Lianshan didn't look too good now, but Bai Qiuwu was still eating and drinking, as if he, like Pu Xi, really came here to enjoy himself.
Dongfang Lianshan is very worried now. After all, the trouble here cannot be solved, and it will be difficult for him to explain if he goes back. This is one aspect. The most important thing is that seeing Fuyingshan's condition, Dongfang Lianshan is not sure whether he can go back safely.
Dongfang Lianshan, who had carried out many missions in the past, knew that the risk here was no longer a small matter, but a real huge storm. He might be able to leave without any risk alone, but with Bai Qiuwu and the tourists in the distance, it was hard to say.
Since Dongfang Lianshan and Bai Qiuwu are both unable to solve the problem, it is more important for Dongfang Lianshan to do what he should do. Staring at Bai Qiuwu all the time is useless. However, Bai Qiuwu looked at the time from time to time and found out where the problem lies.
"The flow of time seems to have increased, or rather, the passage of life, aging, sickness, and death in Fuying Mountain is a little faster than outside. After arriving at Fuying Mountain, my sixty seconds gradually became fifty-nine, fifty-eight? And even this speed is slowly increasing."
"It's not just me who's having time slowly taken away. It's everyone around me who's gradually aging. But even if there are changes, it's only two or three days of time stolen, or lifespan stolen."
Bai Qiuwu was eating, listening to Qi Dafa and Dongfang Lianshan chatting, and looking at his mobile phone. Naturally, he knew more clearly that there were many variables now. At least some changes in time were discovered by Bai Qiuwu.
On average, a person actually loses one minute per hour, which is negligible. After all, it is less than half an hour lost per day, so half an hour is nothing here.
After staying for a few days, a person disappears for almost half a day, which is indeed not much. People who go to Fuying Mountain for adventure often become extremely panicked. In this way, many people do not notice that time has slipped away secretly.
The stolen time should have fallen into the hands of someone in the mountains. This is a time thief. Bai Qiuwu can't say for sure whether Nangong Yunzhen and the company's people have discovered this, but Dongfang Lianshan and others definitely haven't discovered it.
"Even if we leave Fuying Mountain, some time will be stolen. The farther we are, the less time will be stolen. It could be from one minute a day to just a few seconds a day!"
"If I hadn't done this kind of calculation, I wouldn't even know that most people who come to Fuying Mountain will experience such changes!"
As Bai Qiuwu thought about this, he naturally realized that there were actually a lot of troubles in secret. After all, the person who could use this method might be a really powerful god, and Bai Qiuwu had few means at his disposal.
Nangong Yunzhen probably didn't use Fuying Mountain to deal with Bai Qiuwu, but Nangong Yunzhen, and the people in the company didn't know the specific reason for the changes here, so there was no need to use this place to test Bai Qiuwu.
Bai Qiuwu didn't consider how Nangong Yunzhen would decide. He only had one idea now, which was to reach Fuying Mountain as soon as possible. The guy in the dark was stealing time, and he was afraid that he would make a big move.
Bai Qiuwu didn't know what specific actions would be taken, but at this time, some action must be taken. At least he had to go into the mountain first to take a look. Otherwise, Bai Qiuwu was not sure what the extent of the crisis was.
"The stolen time may not seem like much, but everyone at Fuying Mountain will be affected, even people like Qi Dafa. That's a lot of time, or lifespan!"
"No matter who it is, I can't ignore the person who manipulates me like this. After all, over the years, the good feng shui of this place has been destroyed. If I handle this well, I will have a lot of merit points. If I don't handle it well, I'm afraid I will be retaliated against!"
Thinking about this, Bai Qiuwu knew that he could only rely on himself this time. As for the company and Nangong Yunzhen, they could not provide help for the time being. Bai Qiuwu didn't need to think about these things. He should find a way to solve the current troubles first.
At this time, Fuying Mountain seemed to be affected by a layer of fog, and there would be many troubles. If Bai Qiuwu could not prepare in advance, it would only cause a storm in Fuying Mountain, and Bai Qiuwu might even be retaliated against.
After all, after arriving at Fuying Mountain, Bai Qiuwu became a part of Fuying Mountain. When arriving at such a place, theoretically, people with similar lifespans would be absorbed at a similar speed, but Bai Qiuwu's time was taken away, which was double the loss.
For example, if Qi Dafa loses one second, Nangong Yunzhen will lose 1.5 seconds, or about two seconds. Because Nangong Yunzhen is more powerful, he will normally live longer than Qi Dafa.
On Bai Qiuwu's side, under the same circumstances, he would lose two seconds, or even three or four seconds. The situation would worsen later. The time lost by Bai Qiuwu would even increase exponentially, which was very scary.
Bai Qiuwu was already feeling a bit uncomfortable after losing four or five seconds in a minute. If he lost more than ten seconds, he would not be able to concentrate on sitting here, and it was very likely that he would become Sleeping Beauty...
After eating and drinking, the group seemed to be much more relaxed. No matter what unpleasantness or troubles they had encountered before, they could now be said to have disappeared.
After all, there are two things in life: eating, drinking and having fun. In this place, one can satisfy his food and drink needs, which is enough to make Pu Xi feel safe. As for Dongfang Lianshan and Xie Qiuya, they are also a little more relaxed.
"This place is simple, but we can still guarantee bathing and other things. You can enjoy the moonlight and go to bed early!"
Qi Dafa said with a smile that his attitude was much better now than before. The reason for this change was naturally because he had a few words with Dongfang Lianshan. Qi Dafa knew that this group of people were not simple.
In addition, Dongfang Lianshan said that he came to repay a favor, so Qi Dafa and Dongfang Lianshan had a much better relationship. At least he no longer looked down on these guys who were traveling on a budget.
"good!"
Dongfang Lianshan nodded and carried the slightly drunk Pu Xi back. Bai Qiuwu did not comment and returned to the room with Xie Qiuya. The situation here was indeed special, and Bai Qiuwu needed to be more careful in this investigation.
However, Bai Qiuwu was not worried about more trouble. After all, the special situation he encountered at this time was not caused by someone deliberately. It seemed that Fuyingshan was being manipulated and doing these things passively.
There is definitely no result as to what is wrong now. We can only wait until we enter Fuying Mountain. Besides, Bai Qiuwu has lost a lot of time and is not in a very good condition.
After washing up, it was already past eleven o'clock. Bai Qiuwu looked at the time and prepared to rest. After all, he had to go to the mountains tomorrow. He couldn't just stay here and fantasize about what he would encounter. Only by actually going into the mountains would he be safe.
"Don't worry, there's definitely something wrong this time, but I've participated in missions like the Fuying Mountain ones since I first started. They were just some ordinary wild monsters, nothing serious!"
"I'm similar to you. I'm not doing this full-time. I was invited by Team Leader Nangong to join when there's a need. It's the same with Chen Song. He usually just practices Taoism in the mountains, and I do IT."
Xie Qiuya, who had been quiet along the way, said this now when she saw Bai Qiuwu was very tired. It was obvious that after realizing that Bai Qiuwu was very tired and not in a good condition, Xie Qiuya was different from Dongfang Lianshan.
Even at this time, Xie Qiuya felt that Bai Qiuwu was a burden, but Xie Qiuya knew that Bai Qiuwu had no choice but to come to Fuying Mountain to work. In Xie Qiuya's view, she and Bai Qiuwu were similar and could be considered to be in the same boat.
Nangong Yunzhen and the company provided some help, and Bai Qiuwu and Xie Qiuya could also help. This could be considered an equal exchange. Xie Qiuya actually knew what Nangong Yunzhen had said to Bai Qiuwu.
So Xie Qiuya could actually understand Bai Qiuwu's current situation. After all, she had experienced the same situation before. Nangong Yunzhen asked Xie Qiuya for help, and Xie Qiuya was reluctant at that time.
"I don't know if Bai Qiuwu can pass this level. If not, he'll probably be watched all the time in the future, which isn't a good thing. I hope Bai Qiuwu can be safe!"
"But there's no trace of spiritual energy on Bai Qiuwu's body. While it's possible he has some special physique, it's also possible he's just an ordinary person involved in this, being used by the company for publicity."
In Xie Qiuya's heart, she didn't want Bai Qiuwu to have any trouble. After all, Xie Qiuya had not been safe along the way. If Bai Qiuwu was lucky, he might be able to go on a business trip occasionally like Xie Qiuya and live a normal life.
It's just that Bai Qiuwu's situation got out of hand and he was forced to join the company. At least in Xie Qiuya's opinion, Bai Qiuwu is now mediocre and doesn't look like a genius at all, or a big shot in disguise.
To Xie Qiuya, Bai Qiuwu was even more embarrassing than she was before. Xie Qiuya was at least a senior hacker and could use spiritual power, so at least she was safe.
But Bai Qiuwu is different. Xie Qiuya believes that Bai Qiuwu's situation depends entirely on luck. If Xie Qiuya is lucky, she might be safe. However, if Bai Qiuwu's luck is not so good, he will be extremely unlucky.
Xie Qiuya, Dongfang Lianshan and others can at least save their lives in this operation. However, Bai Qiuwu, an ordinary person, can only watch and see if Xie Qiuya, Dongfang Lianshan and others are free to help Bai Qiuwu.
"You do this part-time, it seems similar to mine, so it's not easy either!"
"Get a good rest tonight, and you'll feel better tomorrow when you go to the mountains!"
Bai Qiuwu nodded, looking as if he had no idea what Xie Qiuya was thinking. Now Bai Qiuwu was very calm and didn't know what the risks were. Xie Qiuya must have felt a little guilty for saying this at this time.
After all, according to the company's previous regulations, someone like Bai Qiuwu would never be allowed in, not to mention that things have come to this point and Xie Qiuya has no idea what Bai Qiuwu's abilities are. This makes everything seem even more wrong.
But Xie Qiuya had no other choice but to try her best to help Bai Qiuwu. However, Xie Qiuya, Dongfang Lianshan and Chen Song were lucky to be able to protect themselves. Xie Qiuya didn't know how to guarantee the safety of Bai Qiuwu and Pu Xi.
Pu Xi and Bai Qiuwu were the ones caught in the storm but didn't know it, at least that's what Xie Qiuya thought. But Xie Qiuya didn't think that Nangong Yunzhen was not a fool, and the company's senior management was also very smart, and Bai Qiuwu was definitely not simple.
"This group is really weird, but they all mean well and don't want me to get into any trouble. Unfortunately, I've already come this far, and it's impossible to retreat!"
"Perhaps the only way is to resolve the danger here and leave safely."
Bai Qiuwu, who appeared calm on the surface, knew that Xie Qiuya and Dongfang Lianshan's inherent thinking made them both feel that Bai Qiuwu was unsafe. Xie Qiuya was unable to help Bai Qiuwu, and was really sad.
After all, Xie Qiuya was unable to protect Bai Qiuwu. In fact, Xie Qiuya's biggest feeling was grief for the loss of Bai Qiuwu. Bai Qiuwu's current situation might be Xie Qiuya's future. No one could protect Bai Qiuwu this time. Could Xie Qiuya be safe in the future?
Bai Qiuwu didn't say much to Xie Qiuya who was feeling guilty, because Bai Qiuwu was still searching his memory, thinking about everything in Fuying Mountain and how to solve it. Bai Qiuwu didn't want to comment too much on Xie Qiuya's thoughts.
After all, Bai Qiuwu had already discovered the danger in a place that Xie Qiuya couldn't see, and it would be useless for Bai Qiuwu to tell Xie Qiuya what happened. Even if Bai Qiuwu dared to say it, Xie Qiuya and Dongfang Lianshan would not believe it.
"Well, I need to rest. You follow me tomorrow!"
Xie Qiuya nodded. She didn't dare to ask what Nangong Yunzhen and Bai Qiuwu talked about. Bai Qiuwu's current attitude still seemed a bit like a newborn calf that was not afraid of a tiger.
Since this is the case, Xie Qiuya couldn't say too much directly and put any pressure on Bai Qiuwu. After all, Xie Qiuya didn't dare to destroy Nangong Yunzhen's plan at will. Xie Qiuya couldn't guarantee whether Bai Qiuwu would be safe, so she could only leave it to fate.
If Bai Qiuwu really gets into trouble, and Xie Qiuya fails to protect Bai Qiuwu, she will have to bear the responsibility in the future. After all, Xie Qiuya and Dongfang Lianshan did not let Bai Qiuwu leave, so it was already doomed. There are many variables in this matter.
Xie Qiuya was unable to change the overall situation. She could only say that she would inform Bai Qiuwu, and then Xie Qiuya would try her best to protect Bai Qiuwu. Apart from that, Xie Qiuya could not do anything else but feel at peace with herself.
Dongfang Lianshan had told Bai Qiuwu at the beginning that if Bai Qiuwu wanted to leave, he could actually leave, but Bai Qiuwu himself did not leave. As a result, Xie Qiuya can only do her best now.
"good……"
Bai Qiuwu nodded. Nangong Yunzhen, after all, how could these people believe Bai Qiuwu's words? Someone was secretly stealing time. Xie Qiuya and Bai Qiuwu's group had already been tricked. Even Bai Qiuwu felt it was unrealistic, let alone Dongfang Lianshan and Xie Qiuya.
