Like a human or a fox
Jiang Jingyuan was stunned when he heard this, and then looked up without any reaction.
Everyone saw it clearly.
In the dim light, a familiar figure walked out quickly. He heard the voice, looked up, and saw a familiar face - it was Jiang Yi's face!
Jiang Jingyuan was still sitting in the chair without moving, and Yu Linhuan beside him just turned his head to look at him.
Only the people in Longyin Pavilion——
The people around the campfire stood up in horror, and as they screamed, the people who were walking towards them also turned around suddenly, either with joy or fear.
"Jiang Yi! Jiang Jiang Jiang Yi——"
Everyone was so frightened that their faces were shaking. "Swish!" their swords were unsheathed. They held their swords in front of them and screamed:
"How are you still alive!!!"
Those who had come over, those who had experienced the strange scene earlier, raised their swords and retreated one after another. Those who did not understand what was going on stared around with their eyes wide open, their mouths wide open in shock.
"If Jiang Yi isn't alive, how can he be dead?"
"Shut up!" someone shouted at them. "Get away from him!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the people who were walking over understood something even though they had never seen the previous scene. Their hearts skipped a beat and they ran quickly towards the campfire.
However, before they could get close, they were pushed away by the people around the campfire. "Get out of the way! If you come any closer, you'll be hacked to death!"
The people who were running in panic were all in disbelief, but seeing that their faces were serious and not fake, they ran away honestly, turned around, and stared at Jiang Yi who was walking towards them.
Jiang Yi paused and frowned at them, "What are you crazy about?"
Everyone in Longyin Pavilion looked terrified, their pupils trembling slightly, and their throats seemed to be stuck with something turbid and unable to make a sound.
Jiang Yi looked at them strangely and stepped forward again.
"stop!"
Lao Wu suddenly pushed aside the crowd and stood up, clenching his trembling teeth, staring at him and asked:
"Weren't you dead? Weren't you replaced by a fox? Why are you back?!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the people around him understood instantly and looked at Jiang Yi with more fear in their eyes.
Jiang Yi paused after hearing this, then gave them a strange look. "Did you encounter a fox pretending to be me?" He then understood. "That's right, it was on my side. I turned around and there was no one there. It took me a long time to find it."
——This makes it clear that he was also unaware of it.
By the campfire, everyone's expressions changed, their eyes filled with confusion and hesitation.
Believe it or not?
I want to believe it, but I dare not.
"Then let's stay apart!" Lao Wu suddenly shouted, "We don't want to embarrass you, Boss Jiang, nor do we want to doubt you, so let's just separate!"
When the people near the campfire heard this, they all nodded. This was the only way.
The newcomers pursed their lips and remained silent, agreeing reluctantly.
Jiang Yi glanced at them and asked, "Can you guarantee that the people around you are definitely human?"
In an instant, everyone's faces, which had finally calmed down, changed again.
They subconsciously turned their heads to look at each other, and then they stepped back, putting some distance between them.
Can you guarantee that it is definitely a human?
They can't tell the fox's disguise at all, so who can guarantee that the person next to them is a human?
"Boss Jiang, we know you're not happy about being ignored like this," said Old Five in a deep voice. "We had to make the necessary decisions in this emergency. We didn't want to treat you this way, and there's no need for you to cause us such panic, right?!"
He turned his gaze and looked at the girl in white not far away, and said, "Our employer for this mission is still here, but we are not the only ones!"
Jiang Jingyuan: "..."
Jiang Jingyuan suddenly felt something and looked sideways.
Yu Linhuan looked at her with fiery eyes, raised his hand silently and pointed at himself, with a bright smile on his face.
The meaning is obvious.
Jiang Jingyuan seemed to be lost in thought. Indeed, this Longyin Pavilion was okay at first sight, but later on it became less and less reliable. He guessed that there wouldn't be a next time.
Compare prices from different stores. Next time you have something to do, try Baizhetang... Jiang Jingyuan nodded at her.
Yu Linhuan's smile suddenly became even brighter.
After a pause, she remembered the current occasion, turned her head and restrained the smile on her face, but the corners of her mouth were still slightly raised.
Jiang Yi stared at Lao Wu coldly, "Do you want to live or seek peace of mind? Lao Wu, are you stupid? You have been in Longyin Pavilion for so many years, and in the end you can only lead people to death?"
Lao Wu's face flushed red and he said angrily, "These foxes pretend to be human, and we can't defend ourselves against them at all. How can we solve this problem? Tell me!"
"So you're just going to wait for death with your men?" Jiang Yi asked coldly.
Lao Wu's face flushed instantly, his expression distorted. He turned his head sharply and shouted to the people around him, "Come on! Tell us what you've been up to, and see who can testify for you!"
Everyone immediately turned their heads to the side or lowered their heads, and probed their spiritual sense into the storage space, pretending to be busy searching for something, as if they didn't hear the argument between the two of them at all.
Lao Wu sneered.
"There's more than one fox. Their private affairs corroborate each other. Can you guarantee that there aren't several foxes covering up for each other?" Jiang Yi said, "If you want to say something, just say that we were all there."
"Boss Jiang, don't forget that our employer is still here. How can we know what happened to them? How do you expect them to prove themselves?!" Lao Wu asked sternly. "Besides, Boss Jiang, how can you guarantee that those foxes won't take away people's memories as well?"
Jiang Yi's face darkened.
Lao Wu sneered, "Boss Jiang, please don't look at me like that. I'm thinking about everyone else, after all. If you do that, I'll start to suspect you're trying to frame me or gang up on me! At a time like this when everyone's life is at stake, right?"
Everyone around them immediately lowered their heads or turned their faces away, thinking, "Don't let innocent people get hurt..."
They are all honest people and only listen to the leader.
"This suggestion was made by you, Lao Wu. You want to hear everyone's secrets, and you blame me for not allowing it?" Jiang Yi raised his eyebrows.
Lao Wu calmed down a bit. "At first, I just asked you, Boss Jiang, to stay away from the newcomers. In such difficult times, everyone has to endure. Why can't you, Boss Jiang, tolerate this little bit of injustice?"
"If it's useful, I'll definitely agree." Jiang Yi said, "But Lao Wu, at this critical moment of life and death, you came up with such a jokey and stupid idea. You can't let so many people join you in making trouble, right?"
Jiang Yi stared at him and said, "You could be more serious. There are so many lives at stake. You can't just go and die recklessly."
Lao Wu suddenly opened his mouth.
"despair."
Suddenly there was a knocking sound.
Everyone paused and turned to look in the direction of the sound.
At the table, on a chair, a girl in white rested her right hand on the armrest of the chair, her dark eyes staring coldly at them, "Are you going to quarrel forever?"
Everyone fell silent instantly, and Jiang Yi stepped forward and said, "Sorry, employer, we will find a way to leave right away."
leave.
Yes, no matter if they are humans or foxes, just leave.
Jiang Jingyuan said with a slight headache: "As soon as possible."
"Yes." Everyone answered in unison.
They then sat down on the ground, all looking at Jiang Yi. Jiang Yi pondered, and Lao Wu couldn't help but say, "Boss Jiang, you're smart, so we won't think about it anymore. We'll attack wherever you point. It all depends on you, Boss Jiang."
Lao Wu said, "After all, we are not as smart as you, so we should just keep quiet to avoid making you angry again."
The expressions of everyone in Longyin Pavilion froze, and they subconsciously lowered their heads. After a pause, they realized something was wrong and raised their heads with a dry laugh, saying, "It's true that Boss Jiang is worth a hundred, but we also have to work. How can we let Boss Jiang suffer alone?"
With Lao Wu's personality, he couldn't even unite people when Jiang Yi was not around, let alone when Jiang Yi came back safely?
They didn't say anything when Lao Wu and Jiang Yi were arguing just now. It would be inappropriate to pretend not to hear now.
Lao Wu immediately glared at them angrily.
Everyone turned their eyes away and pretended not to see, thinking to themselves, "What are you looking at? Why don't you consider your own weight? Can you compare with Jiang Yi?"
After a pause, everyone suddenly became determined and started talking to Jiang Yi: "Boss Jiang, do you have any ideas?" "This place is too strange. We have thought about it over and over again but have no idea!" "There is no way out of the woods. How should we get out?"
Jiang Yi remained silent.
The pensive look between his eyebrows remained for a long time, and it seemed that he didn't even hear Lao Wu's challenge just now.
Everyone suddenly became quiet and waited for him.
Jiang Jingyuan turned his head, his dazed gaze passed over the firelight and fell on the blurred junction of light and darkness, and he was in a daze without knowing it.
In the field of vision, the sky was made darker by the firelight, the dark shadows of the slender branches trembled slightly, and between the branches and leaves, the distant sky could be vaguely seen... the moon appeared after the clouds parted.
The bright white full moon hangs high among the branches.
The moon is out... Jiang Jingyuan thought to himself in a daze, then continued to daydream with an empty mind.
Perhaps it was a long while, or perhaps just a moment, when Jiang Jingyuan's mind suddenly shook. His eyes snapped back to focus as he quickly thought, "The moon? Just now, when was it? Was the moon obscured by clouds?"
How can I describe it? This feeling.
The thinking process is just a moment, and the thought of getting the result is also just a moment. They are both fast and vague feelings. If you try to grasp the thinking process, you may easily lose both. So write down the result immediately and put it into action.
Only after getting the results can you calmly and slowly recall the thinking process at that moment.
She curled up her right index finger, which was resting on the armrest of the chair, and gently carved on the armrest. As she carved, she silently chanted: "Moon, moon..."
After making sure he remembered, Jiang Jingyuan looked at the people in front of him and asked, "What time is it now?"
Everyone around was stunned, and then hurriedly took out the sundials. When the first sundial was taken out, the people who were lagging behind stopped and paused, but still took out all the sundials.
"Zi Shi."
Everyone lowered their heads, then raised them again and spoke calmly.
It was expected, so there wasn't much disappointment or panic.
Jiang Jingyuan nodded, tilted his head slightly, moved his lips for a moment, and then turned back to speak seriously.
"Jiang Yi!!!"
Lao Wu suddenly screamed.
Everyone was shocked, their pupils shrank suddenly, and they turned around suddenly. "Bang!" All the sundial instruments fell out of their hands and hit the ground.
"Boss Jiang!!!"
In the firelight, a cold light flashed.
