After the three of them got off the wooden roller coaster, Li Qichen, whose legs were so weak, refused to go any further.
"You two go have fun, I'll wait for you here!"
Xiao Yanbao blinked gently, raised her hand and waved to Li Qichen, then said with a grin:
"Goodbye, Fourth Uncle!"
Xiang Yibai covered her mouth and chuckled softly. Then, she took Xiao Yanbao and ran towards the pirate ship in the distance. When Li Qichen saw them leave, he breathed a sigh of relief, then his legs went weak and he collapsed to the ground.
Li Qichen's tense mind instantly relaxed. At this moment, he felt that the simple life was so good, and the feeling of his feet touching the ground was so good. He even had an urge to lie down on the ground and take a good nap.
The unlucky guy also popped out at the right time. He first poked his head out and looked around. Seeing that Xiang Yibai and Xiao Yanbao had left, he followed Li Qichen's movements and lay down on the ground, letting out a relaxed hum.
Li Qichen didn't care about the roller coaster staff's gaze at all. He lay on the ground by himself, and as if afraid of disturbing someone walking by, he gently moved his body towards the side of the aisle.
Will you still play this kind of thing in the future?
The moment the unlucky fellow spoke, Li Qichen seemed to be struck by lightning, and said with a face full of resentment:
"Anyone who plays this game is a dog!"
Just then, the unlucky guy sniffed a few times and sat up from the ground with a puzzled look on his face.
The unlucky guy's movements drew Li Qichen's attention, and he looked up to look around, but found nothing.
"What's wrong?"
The unlucky guy seemed not to have heard Li Qichen's words, and looked around warily. At the same time, Xiang Yibai and Xiao Yanbao, who had just arrived at the pirate ship, took out their respective magical artifacts almost simultaneously, and looked around with frowns.
Xiao Yanbao and Xiang Yibai exchanged a glance, both noticing the other's serious expression. They then turned and looked at an inconspicuous patch of overgrown weeds on the east side of the amusement park.
However, they saw nothing. Just as they were about to head towards that location, dark clouds began to gather over the amusement park. Within seconds, the entire sky darkened.
Xiang Yibai sensed the lurking danger all around him and immediately pulled Xiao Yanbao to his side. Then, holding his blue spear, he nervously looked around.
At this moment, the two of them seemed to have been pulled into a certain space. Although the scenery was still the same as that of the amusement park, all the tourists and staff who were there before had disappeared.
"Stay close to me, I'll protect you!"
Xiang Yibai held a long spear in one hand and wrapped his other arm around Xiao Yanbao, shielding her in front of him. Just then, Xiao Yanbao whispered:
"Sister, it's still that person!"
When Xiang Yibai heard Xiao Yanbao's words, her gaze narrowed slightly, and a cold glint flashed in her eyes. She naturally understood what Xiao Yanbao meant. The person who came was the same flute player who had previously controlled the ghosts to attack Xiao Yanbao.
Just as they were preparing to face the attack of the enemy's horde of ghosts, Xiao Yanbao felt a chill run down her spine and realized something was wrong.
"His target isn't us; he's probably going to attack Fourth Uncle!"
Although Xiang Yibai didn't know how Xiao Yanbao knew, he had waited for so long without seeing any ghostly figures attacking, and he realized that the other party was just using this method to trap him and Xiao Yanbao.
"That's practically suicide!"
Xiang Yibai raised his blue spear, the tip pointing at the sky at a 45-degree angle, and stomped his foot, sending a visible wave of energy emanating from his body outwards.
However, the shockwave disappeared shortly after it dissipated, and Xiang Yibai was unable to detect anything.
"Sister, don't move yet, let me try!"
Xiao Yanbao tugged at Xiang Yibai's arm. After seeing Xiang Yibai put away his spear, Xiao Yanbao waved her hand and transformed her bracelet into a thorny whip several meters long, which stretched upwards like a serpent.
The whip seemed to hit something after reaching a height of more than three meters, and could not extend any further.
"This is it!"
Xiang Yibai, who had been observing the long whip closely, stomped his foot when he saw it touch the boundary. His body seemed to merge with the blue spear in his hand, and he thrust straight into the air.
"bite!"
The gun tip made a crisp metallic clang when it touched the boundary.
A recoil force traveled along the spear and directly into Xiang Yibai's body. Although Xiang Yibai managed to withdraw some of the recoil force in time, his left arm holding the spear still went numb, and he couldn't even grip the spear properly, so he had to switch the spear to his right hand.
"Don't waste your energy. This barrier will automatically activate in an hour..."
Before the flute's owner could finish speaking, Xiang Yibai gripped his spear and, as if throwing a javelin, forcefully hurled it in the direction from which the sound came.
"Smack!"
A dull thud was heard, and a look of joy immediately appeared on Xiang Yibai's face. He thought to himself that it was a success.
However, what happened next was completely unexpected by Xiang Yibai. The sky did not return to normal as she had expected. Instead, it was as if a black cloth had been draped over it, and the entire sky turned completely black, without any light.
"A tiny spark, shine!"
Xiang Yibai raised his hand and cast a spell used by Longhu Mountain to exorcise evil spirits. A cluster of twinkling starlight appeared in Xiang Yibai's palm, and the light emitted became more and more intense, almost illuminating the surroundings.
A few giggles came from somewhere in the air, and then the light in the white palm disappeared.
"The Starlight Technique of Longhu Mountain? What a pity! If the Celestial Master were to make a move, even this little bit of starlight would be enough to take my life. But what you, little girl, have used is merely a facade! In that case, you'd better stay here obediently for an hour!"
After saying this, the owner of the flute chuckled, turned and left, as if carrying a black shadow in his hand, sometimes bright and sometimes dim.
"retreat!"
For some reason, no spell to break through the barrier came to Xiao Yanbao's mind, but she had a feeling that she could control the darkness.
To see if the scene in the dream was real or not, Xiao Yanbao tentatively said the word "retreat," and the black mist surrounding Xiao Yanbao instantly receded.
And in that instant, the sky above Xiao Yanbao's head was revealed. Seeing that his words did indeed have an effect, Xiao Yanbao spoke again:
"Disperse!"
When Xiao Yanbao said the word "scatter," she silently wished that the dark clouds and mist would completely dissipate, and that the barrier that trapped her and Xiang Yibai would also melt away in that instant.
Just as the bright lights flashed, screams erupted from the people on the pirate ship, and a sense of familiarity rose in Xiao Yanbao and Xiang Yibai's hearts.
Then the two of them quickly ran towards the place where Li Qichen had disappeared. However, on the ground a dozen meters away from the wooden roller coaster, there was still a piece of Li Qichen's clothing.
It seems that Fourth Uncle Li Qichen has been kidnapped by that person. It's just a mystery why the unlucky guy didn't give any warning or escape, but was instead kidnapped along with Li Qichen.
