"The opponents you met in the valley before were indeed very strong, but they are not impossible to deal with." Since he had said that he would help Hua Shi, Fang Wei naturally began to think of ways for him.
In fact, he could even use the power of his spiritual consciousness directly, just like he did in the spiritual realm half a year ago, and temporarily borrow Hua Shi's body to deal with this opponent.
But he ultimately did not choose to do so, because just as Xuan Shuzhi specially asked Hua Shi to come here, and teachers Yu Xing and Zhou Li asked them to come to Frost Forest Valley, their original intention was to allow the disciples to solve problems and grow by themselves under controllable circumstances.
Although the information they obtained was incorrect and they made a wrong judgment, things would not get worse with him present now. No matter what, he would never let anything happen to Hua Shi. As long as these things were within the scope of his control, it would be better to let Hua Shi solve them personally.
And he can give some appropriate suggestions to Hua Shi.
Fang Wei saw Hua Shi sitting down in front of him, sitting upright, eyes wide open, looking somewhat well-behaved. He couldn't help but laugh and continued, "But have you ever thought about why you spent the whole day in Frost Forest Valley without encountering any problems, but happened to be attacked when approaching the formation?"
Hua Shi suddenly cried out, and reacted very quickly: "That guy attacked us because of the formation?"
Fang Wei heard his guess but did not nod: "But that was originally a broken formation, and it has no effect now. That person... let's assume that it is a person. Even if he wants to attack you, he should stop you from discovering this before you find out that the formation is damaged."
Hua Shi blinked: "But he did this after he let us see clearly that the formation was damaged. Why did he do this? He didn't have time? This is impossible. He moved so fast, it is impossible that he couldn't have stopped us in time."
Fang Wei quietly watched him talking to himself.
Hua Shi looked into Fang Wei's eyes and suddenly found himself at a loss for words. He used to talk to the system in his mind. Of course, most of the time he was talking to himself and the system rarely spoke. But even so, Hua Shi could tell from the system's occasional responses that the other party was always listening.
So Hua Shi is usually very noisy, but when he talks face to face with the system this time, the feeling is completely different.
Hua Shi took back his words and lowered his head and said, "Hey, am I too noisy?"
Fang Wei looked at him with amusement, thinking to herself, now you finally realize how noisy you are, but why don’t you have this awareness when you keep making exclamation marks in your head?
But he was just thinking about it. He paused for a moment and said with a slight smile: "It's okay."
Hua Shi still looked a little uncomfortable, scratched his cheek and said: "I don't know why I can't say anything when facing your face, even though I know you are a system."
Fang Wei said softly, "Continue."
Hua Shi was stunned for a moment, and did not immediately understand Fang Wei's meaning, so Fang Wei reminded him at the right time: "Why did that person wait until you saw the formation before taking action?"
Hua Shi just remembered the topic just now, but he was confused again: "I can't think of it, is there something wrong with that guy's brain?"
Fang Wei raised her eyebrows slightly and smiled without saying anything.
Seeing his reaction, Hua Shi asked suspiciously, "Really?"
Fang Wei nodded and said, "We can't rule out this possibility." Seeing Hua Shi's surprised look, Fang Wei explained slowly, "The other party's actions don't make any sense at all, and the sound you heard in the valley when you came here... If that sound was really made by the other party, then this is even more suspicious. Maybe things are really as you said, and that person's mind may not be very clear. In this way, all the mysteries can be solved."
Although this explanation method was somewhat unexpected to Hua Shi, if he thought about it carefully, there seemed to be nothing wrong with it.
Hua Shi felt at a loss whether to laugh or cry: "So the guy who attacked us, he just attacked us because he was not in his right mind and he just didn't like us?"
"Perhaps something you did angered him, or maybe there was something that was taboo to him, such as the formation. Because you touched the formation, he became provoked and attacked violently and hurt people." Fang Wei speculated.
Hua Shi was a little relaxed at first because he heard that his opponent might be a madman, but in the blink of an eye he immediately reacted. Even if his opponent was a madman, the situation he faced was not any better, because if his opponent was a normal person, he might still have a chance to appeal to his emotions and reason, or find a way to convince the other party, but if they were facing a stubborn madman, then nothing they could do would work.
When Hua Shi thought of this, his face became even more rigid. Fang Wei had lived in his soul for a long time and was already very familiar with Hua Shi's head. He could almost guess what he was thinking just by looking at his eyes. So he took the initiative to comfort him, "It's easy to deal with simple people. As long as you know what he cares about, things will be easy to solve."
"He's concerned about the formation?" Hua Shi asked hurriedly, "Then after I get out, can I immediately take Zhou Liyuxing and the others away from that formation?"
Fang Wei said: "I have no way to judge for now, you can try this."
Hua Shi: "But, what if I..."
This time, Fang Wei did not respond to him. She looked at him with her eyes slightly lowered. That was the end of the hint she had given. It was up to Hua Shi to think about what to do next.
Seeing Hua Shi lowering his head in deep thought and looking extremely anxious, Fang Wei felt in a good mood, but soon the corners of his lips that had been slightly raised began to purse again. He looked at the boundless night sky of the Yunxiu Pen space, but his mind couldn't help but drift away. The words just now were not just a simple reminder to Hua Shi. He sorted out his thoughts, but couldn't help but start to feel confused.
Who was that person who appeared in the valley? Although the repeated whispers in the valley became unreal due to the mountain wind and the echo, why did he feel that the voice was familiar?
Could it be someone he knew?
Fang Wei had no way of thinking any further. Any possibility made him feel even more uneasy.
·
At Fang Wei's suggestion, Hua Shi squatted in the corner with his head in his hands, thinking for the next few hours, and did not move for a long time, until Fang Wei reminded him that the time was almost up and they were about to be sent out of Yunxiu Pen's space. He finally raised his face reluctantly, and stood up reluctantly, looking as if he was dragged from a warm quilt into the howling rain and snow in the cold winter.
Feeling the illusion gradually dissipating before his eyes, Hua Shi carried Zhou Li on his left and supported Yu Xing on his right. He looked at Fang Wei in front of him with hesitation, and took a deep breath to barely keep his expression unchanged: "Then, then I will really go out."
Fang Wei nodded, and after looking at his expression, she added, "Don't be too nervous."
It would be strange if he wasn't nervous, because the person in front of him was a boss who could kill them with one hand, and he didn't even know what the other person looked like.
When Hua Shi thought of this, he couldn't help but become more nervous.
He raised his head and looked at Fang Wei again. When his eyes met Fang Wei, his consciousness became vague again for some reason, and he said awkwardly, "That..."
Fang Wei raised his eyes and asked, "Hmm?"
Hua Shi couldn't use his hands to gesture because he was holding two people in his arms. He could only take two steps forward and said in a mosquito-like voice: "Can you hug me?"
Fang Wei was a little surprised by this sudden request, so she couldn't come back to her senses immediately and just stared at Hua Shi.
Hua Shi thought that he didn't hear what he said clearly, so he raised his voice with a slightly hot face and said, "I just think that if there is a beautiful woman to cheer me up, I might be a little less nervous. Although you are not the real Liu Qishuang, you look so much like him now, it should... still have some effect, right?"
Fang Wei: “…”
He felt angry and a little amused. This was indeed Hua Shi's style. Even at this time, he did not forget to get some benefits.
However, looking at Hua Shi with two people hanging on each side, Fang Wei couldn't bring himself to do it. He also couldn't understand Hua Shi's obsession with "Liu Qishuang". After watching Hua Shi for a while, Fang Wei raised his hand and flicked Hua Shi's cheek lightly: "Host, it's time to get ready."
Hua Shi waited for a long time, thinking that he would get some benefits. However, before he could react to Fang Wei's actions, the scenery around him changed instantly. Before he could adapt to the dizziness in his head, he disappeared from the clean and tidy room, and his feet stepped on the ground covered with fallen leaves.
He looked up and saw that he was still in the mysterious and strange altar. In front of him, where the system had originally stood, the figure of "Liu Qishuang" had completely disappeared and turned into a familiar golden ball of light. After circling around him half a circle, it returned to his body.
The system returned to his body. Although he should not feel anything, Hua Shi felt a little more at ease for some reason: "System?"
Fang Wei immediately responded: "I'm here."
Hua Shi pulled up the corners of his lips and smiled, recalling the way the system flicked his cheek in the image of Liu Qishuang before he left the Yunxiu Pen space. He suddenly felt his cheek getting a little hot.
Realizing that he habitually put these thoughts into his mind and that the system had heard them all, Hua Shi felt unusually uncomfortable. He quickly shook his head to get rid of these thoughts, then turned around and began to observe the situation around him.
What made him feel a little relieved was that he had not yet detected the breath of the powerful enemy. He then turned around and looked at the destroyed formation on the wall again. One of the stones carved on the original formation was broken, and the crack was very smooth, obviously cut by someone with a sharp weapon.
Did someone sneak in here and secretly destroy this formation?
But where did the half piece of stone slab that was cut off go?
Although Hua Shi was curious, he couldn't think too much about it now. He was afraid that if he stayed here any longer, he would meet that inexplicably powerful opponent again. The best way now was to stay away from this formation and take Zhou Liyuxing away from here. After notifying his master and the others, he would come back to investigate in the future.
Having made up his mind, Hua Shi quickly turned around, determined the direction, and headed towards the exit of the valley.
However, he had not walked for long before he nearly fell to the ground with his two companions. He hastily steadied himself and turned back to look at the place he had just been at.
Only then did he realize that the thing that nearly caused him to fall after he kicked it was actually a stone slab.
And on the top of the stone slab, half of a pitch-black spell was engraved.
That was exactly the missing half of the spell stone slab in the formation left by Liu Qishuang.
Hua Shi: “…”
He originally just wanted to stay away from the formation, but who would have thought that after he had walked so far, that thing would actually appear under his feet.
The moment he saw the stone slab and the spell clearly, Hua Shi had a bad premonition in his heart. He couldn't help but want to take two steps back. However, as if to confirm his premonition, the moment he stepped back, a figure suddenly emerged from the low bushes in the forest.
Hua Shi felt a chill down his spine, and he quickly turned around with the person in his arms when the system reminded him. This time he was prepared, and he finally saw the appearance of the mysterious opponent in a hurry.
It turned out to be a strange man with green skin, covered with vines, and various mushrooms and wild flowers in his messy hair!
