Chapter 280 Socially anxious master vs. sickly disciple 55
Quan Jiu suddenly thought of Ji Xiao yesterday.
That’s right.
She was given a surprise for no reason. If she was smarter, she might have foreseen the situation today.
"Ergou, he knows everything."
Quan Jiu sat in front of the cave, hugging his knees without looking up, and his voice was so low that no normal person could hear it.
Fortunately, 001 is not a normal person.
A puff of black smoke rose, and a tall man appeared beside her.
Quan Jiu listened to the noise beside his ears, but still did not move.
After a while, she heard a faint sigh.
The tall man squatted on one knee beside her, looking at Quan Jiu who was lost in his own world. He pursed his lips, wanting to comfort her but not knowing where to start.
"I know."
In the end, he only said these few words.
Quan Jiu's five fingers gripped the hem of her skirt a little tightly, and her tone was emotionless.
"I thought I was hiding it well, but he actually knew it all a long time ago. He knew that my spiritual power was dissipating, and that I would soon become an ordinary mortal... He knew everything, but he kept playing along."
Every day in the formation feels like it was stolen.
001Silence.
He knew everything Ji Xiao had done, but he couldn't tell her.
If keeping it a secret from her was Ji Xiao's last wish, then he chose to respect it.
However, at this point, even if he didn't tell Quan Jiu, Quan Jiu could guess it.
"He is a god, an immortal god..."
The formation can imprison him but cannot kill him. If he continues to waste time in this formation, the first person to die will definitely be Quan Jiu.
Quan Jiu's voice was a little hoarse, and her head was buried in her arms, making it difficult to see her expression:
"He found a way to break the formation a long time ago, but he didn't tell me. Instead, he went to break the formation secretly by himself. Ergou, tell me... why is that?"
001 stared at the abrasion on her foot, which had become gauze and plaster from nowhere:
"Don't ask anymore."
She clearly knew the answer better than anyone else, but continuing to ask was undoubtedly self-torture.
"Because he knew the method to break the formation, I would definitely not agree, so he wanted to carry me on his back."
Quan Jiu hit the nail on the head.
"So what method made him so sure that I wouldn't agree?"
What method could make him choose to leave after sending her to the prosperous Chang'an for a day?
What method could allow him to help her realize her wishes one by one before leaving, just like fulfilling her last wish...
"Ergou, will he die?"
As long as you are alive, even if you are disabled
001: “…”
Invisible silence gives the best answer.
Quan Jiu wanted to smile, but after trying for a long time, he couldn't even make an arc.
"Ergou, where is he?"
…
When Quan Jiu reached the center of the formation, a blood mark appeared in the groove on the stone tablet.
Emperor Xie and Shennong Ding were placed in front of the stone tablet, as if waiting for someone.
Seeing Quan Jiu, Di Xie flew over crookedly, sometimes high and sometimes low, as if he couldn't maintain normal flight because of his out-of-control emotions.
Her tone was a little cold: "Where is Ji Xiao?"
Di Xie seemed even more sad, sobbing silently.
Quan Jiu straightened his back and looked at the blood in the groove.
The red is blinding.
She once stood here, holding Ji Xiao's hand with a smile, and embedded her hand in it, cursing that this formation was so deceptive and had no flaws at all.
The red mark in the groove seemed to have finally waited for its owner, and a dark red light flashed gently, just like that person's eyes.
A crack appeared on the tight mask on Quan Jiu's face.
After the light, the transparent cover on the sky began to dissipate.
The formation was broken.
The noisy wind howled wildly, the swaying trees welcomed the warm sun, and everything that was originally still in the formation regained its vitality.
The sky is high and the earth is vast.
It seemed as if she was alone.
“Pah.”
Something slipped from her hair and fell to the ground.
Quan Jiu stared at the stone hairpin that was broken into several pieces on the ground, and the light in his pupils also shattered.
There was no exquisite treasure in the store, only a hairpin-shaped stone bar polished from stone. The man who used magic power to maintain the hairpin disappeared, and the hairpin's true form was revealed.
"The mission is over."
001 has been following her side the whole time.
Quan Jiu: "I want to see him again."
She looked up at 001, her dark eyes glistening with water, her tone blank and stubborn.
"001, I know you have a way."
It was rare that she didn't call him Ergou.
…
When the scene before Ji Xiao's death appeared in front of Quan Jiu, 001 thought that he might really be an unqualified system.
He fails to distinguish between public and private affairs and abuses his power.
Quan Jiu looked at the man in the picture, and the corners of her slightly red eyes turned bright red. She blinked to let the mist in her eyes dissipate.
She watched with her own eyes as Ji Xiao dug out his own heart blood and dripped it into the groove of the stone tablet.
Gods have infinite life and never grow old, but if they want to end their lives, it only takes a thought.
001 Eyes slightly lowered:
"Without the core of the Guiyuan Formation, there is no solution."
The person who set up this formation did not intend for anyone to be able to break it. No matter how powerful Ji Xiao was, he could not create something out of nothing and break something that did not exist at all.
The Guiyuan Formation, as the name suggests, is a formation that means that after all things disappear, they return to their original state and then all things begin to revive anew.
When there is only one person left in the formation, that person becomes the "Yuan", and the formation will disintegrate without being broken.
There were only her and Ji Xiao in the formation. She was a fairy and he was a god. No matter how you looked at it, she would be the first to die.
Ji Xiao gave her the only chance to get out of the formation.
"But I don't want it."
Quan Jiu watched with his own eyes as Ji Xiao's figure disintegrated, finally breaking into golden fragments that drifted in the air.
001: "The devouring power of the formation is very strong. After you were reduced from a cultivator to an ordinary person, you didn't have decades to waste. From the age of twenty to eighty, it might only take half a month, or even a few days in the blink of an eye..."
In a way, he could actually understand Ji Xiao.
Quan Jiu didn't say anything. The scene in front of her eyes had disappeared, but she still stood there with her back straight, as if she was going to stand into the next dawn when the darkness faded away.
…
【Ji Xiao's Perspective】
The ninth year of Zhaoming.
It was the first time I called that person "Master".
She was so weak, so weak that she could be torn to pieces by just a snap of his fingers.
She's pretty stupid too.
He didn't understand why she chose to transform into the ugliest of all the auspicious creatures in the world of immortal cultivation.
In order to tease her, I deliberately lost the sect competition, but unexpectedly, she won the competition for me and even protected me by scolding back all the disciples who had laughed at me.
Um.
Emperor Xie likes her very much.
…
She was indeed not smart and was discovered the first time she eavesdropped at the foot of the bed.
Its fur stood on end and it ran away in a hurry, like a pufferfish that suddenly got angry.
It was also on this day that I discovered that she could dissolve the immortal qi in my body. As a half-immortal and half-demon, I was born with two sets of cultivation systems.
