When Li Yirou heard this, her heart tightened. If a change in aesthetics meant that the person was influenced, then wouldn't it mean that two people in the team had mild hallucinations before they had even taken a few steps?
And she also felt that something was wrong just now, but she couldn't put her finger on it.
"Right, senior brother? The more I look at it, the more beautiful it becomes. It's very special!" After Huo Lingling caught up, she joined Zhang Yucheng in praising the magnificent architecture of the mysterious city.
Huo Lingling is a natural crosstalk artist, right? She used to chat with Chen Ziying, and now she's chatting with Zhang Yucheng...
Thinking of this, Li Yirou finally realized that something was wrong! Huo Lingling and Chen Ziying were obviously closer, but she had fallen behind the team just now, and it was actually Senior Brother who called out first!
This shouldn't be the case! What on earth is going on? Li Yirou turned around and stared at her.
"Junior sister, why are you looking at me?" Huo Lingling smiled at her. In this quiet city, her smile seemed as strange as the houses, and seemed a little abnormal.
If Li Yiru was being stared at by her teammates at this moment, she might be subconsciously frightened and would never laugh.
"Why are you laughing so hard that I'm so scared..." Chen Ziying didn't call her name. While speaking, the magic sword appeared in his hand.
The secret realm guide also says that sometimes when you reach the center of the city and find that your teammates have been replaced, you will actually kill them.
But they had just walked down one street when Huo Lingling became abnormal.
But Chen Ziying understood her, so he drew his sword and faced her.
Originally, Chen Ziying, as the team leader, focused on how to walk the road. However, because Huo Lingling liked Senior Brother Tan, Chen Ziying felt that her aesthetic taste was different from that of ordinary people, so it was inevitable that she would appreciate these buildings.
Chen Ziying thought that he was temporarily unable to take care of her, so she went to chat with Senior Brother Zhang and did not notice anything wrong at the first time.
"Senior Sister Lingling, why did you call me Senior Brother when we fell behind just now? Shouldn't you call me Senior Sister Ziying?" Li Yirou thought, if it was an illusion, perhaps it could be broken if she pointed it out.
After listening to what Li Yiru said, Lu Xin felt that it made sense. Huo Lingling and the two male cultivators were familiar with each other, but they were not close.
He stood silently beside Li Yirou. The atmosphere in the originally harmonious team suddenly became tense.
The little spirits hidden in the house made extremely soft gurgling sounds when they moved, like peeling jelly and pouring it into a plate. They all poked their heads out and watched the fun quietly.
Huo Lingling rolled her eyes, very deliberately and exaggeratedly, and then a smile appeared on her face again, "Well, Senior Brother was at the end, so I called him~"
"Yes, I was at the end just now, maybe that's why my junior sister called me. Don't be nervous or misunderstand." Zhang Yucheng hurried out and stood between the two groups of people, pressing his hands down to act as a peacemaker.
"Why do you keep emphasizing that the things in the maze city are beautiful and gorgeous? Who are you?" Li Yiru also took out a talisman to immobilize the body, but unfortunately it was a second-grade talisman she drew, and she didn't know if it could immobilize Huo Lingling.
Huo Lingling's face turned cold and her voice became deep. "Why, don't you think it looks good?!"
"That's not what I meant. We'll appreciate it if it's beautiful. There's no need to remind us repeatedly." Li Yirou put away the talisman. "Are you the city lord?"
"It's not fun. I'll remember you." Huo Lingling's gaze was fixed on Li Yiru, but there was no emotion in her eyes, so empty that it was frightening.
Huo Lingling's figure then slowly disappeared like mist, and Zhang Yucheng seemed to wake up. "What's going on? I... I think I saw Ah Shu!"
After he finished speaking, he squatted down with his head in his hands in pain, and sobs were heard.
Lu Xin and Chen Ziying looked at each other and sighed. Lu Xin stepped forward to comfort him, but after calling him "brother", he didn't know how to continue.
"I'm fine." Zhang Yucheng calmed down, "Just a little headache. Ah Shu just called me from the other side of the road, I..." He choked up again as he spoke.
"Zhang Jingshu is Senior Brother Zhang's sister. Five years ago, she had an accident..." Chen Ziying explained softly to Li Yiru.
After a loved one passes away, every time I think of her, it feels like my heart is being squeezed and I can't breathe, let alone seeing her again.
"What about Senior Sister Lingling? Does she have a similar situation?" Li Yirou was not very good at comforting, and she was not familiar with Senior Brother Zhang, so she started discussing it with Chen Ziying.
Chen Ziying looked up, as if recalling something, and finally replied, "No."
After she finished speaking, she turned to look at her senior brother, then at Lu Xin, feeling a little anxious.
Li Yiru remembered the word "Senior Brother" she had just called from behind. Maybe it was Huo Lingling herself who said that?
She had not noticed that Huo Lingling was lagging behind, but after the shouting, she was suddenly a little distance away from them. Perhaps her vision was already confused at that time, so she did not see the real Huo Lingling.
"We have to find Lingling first." Chen Ziying hesitated for a second and spoke immediately.
She couldn't go looking alone. If the team split up, it would be easier for them to be confused one by one.
"Okay!" Li Yiru was the first to agree. Zhang Yucheng forced himself to break free from the obsession with seeing his sister and return together.
"I heard my senior sister calling for help right here just now. I think she might have been not far away at the time." Li Yiru came to the front of the M-shaped intersection. There were eight directions, and she didn't know where Huo Lingling would go.
"Could the senior brother she called out be Senior Brother Tan?" Chen Ziying frowned, thinking about what happened to Senior Brother Zhang just now, and guessed, "Perhaps the senior brother Huo Lingling saw was him, and she was confused."
Li Yiru thought it was possible. The others looked at the roads leading to eight directions and began to feel troubled again. It was not easy to find.
It seems that the Lost City may allow people to see the person they care about the most. Li Yirou was thinking about it when she suddenly saw Taxue and Duobao appear on a road, running in the opposite direction of Li Yirou.
...If Duobao hadn't been showing off the clothes Li Yirou bought for it to the strange fire that had stopped practicing, she would have believed it.
But then, on another road, Li Yi stood not far away, still with that serious look, just looking at her with eyes that always carried a sense of closeness, "Fang Ye, you came out? I've been looking for you for a long time..."
Li Yirou unconsciously took a step forward, wanting to see him more clearly. The spatial jade pendant on her heart was still warm, and her eyes were slightly moist, which quickly turned into mist and dissipated. Unfortunately, it was fake.
She closed her eyes and silently recited a meditation mantra. When she opened her eyes again, she saw Li Yi smiling at her, but his figure was slowly fading away, like a beautiful dream that was gradually breaking apart.
Li Yirou told herself not to think about it, silently memorized the two directions, and turned to observe her teammates.
