Chapter 69 Carved Wooden Door
Bai Zhi has almost woken up.
"Thank you." She said weakly, trying to stand up but lacking the strength.
I helped her to her feet and let her lean against the sycamore wood behind her.
Zhou Tianqi finally got down from his sword. He glanced at me, then began to chop vines and birds with a gloomy expression. "Wait a minute, why do you look so dissatisfied?!"
When he had almost cut down all the vines and firebirds, corpses began to fall from the dome where he had come in.
It smashed into the ground, creating deep holes. The force was nothing like what a corpse should have.
No, are they going to smash us to death with their corpses?!
I quickly took out two pieces of chocolate from the mirror, handed one to Baizhi, and prepared to put the other in my mouth before going to help Zhou Tianqi.
As a result, he was distracted and the chocolate in his hand fell into Zhou Tianqi's hand, and he stuffed it directly into his mouth.
I:?
"Aying, come and light the fire."
He didn't even blink, and the speed of swinging the sword did not slow down at all. I took a look at Bai Zhi and saw that she was not in any danger for the time being, so I ran out of the cover with the sword in hand.
"Don't make me sound like some fire-starter—" I pointed the tip of my sword forward, forming a seal with my left hand. "Its form is existence, its division into yin and yang is yang."
A fire dragon shot out from the tip of my sword.
"Roar--" The fire dragon spewed out blazing flames from bottom to top, and in just an instant, a hole was burned out. The other corpses were also burned to ashes in the spreading fire.
The corpses that kept falling from above were burned one by one by the fire dragon, but they still kept falling, giving a feeling of being smashed hard. Thousands of years of survival would be smashed today.
If it were anyone else, their spiritual power would have been exhausted. However, because Zhou Tianqi's body contained so much spiritual power, the flames were endless. What the Yang fire could not burn, Zhou Tianqi's Yin fire helped to freeze it. It was simply a perpetual motion machine for chopping vegetables.
No wonder it was so easy for Zhou Tianqi to deal with this anomaly in the first week. He could just use the Yang Fire in his left hand and the Yin Fire in his right hand to burn the place clean.
I feel like a lithium battery with no wireless power.
[…I think you’ve had a good time again, haven’t you?]
Indeed, do you understand the joy of having an ace assistant with infinite blue bars and not having to worry about anything else but just output?
An intact block of ice fell from my fire and I was stunned.
It did not break into pieces, but fell next to the cover that Baizhi was leaning against.
There was a wooden stake sealed inside.
——Ah, it’s Liu Ke.
No, it's just that this anomaly really tried hard! It even threw Liu Ke down. If it weren't for Zhou Tianqi, I might have burned Liu Ke too.
He is still a reliable brother at critical moments!
Bai Zhi obviously saw Liu Ke as well, and she visibly relaxed. After eating the chocolate, she felt much better and had already started bandaging herself.
"Aying, be serious." Zhou Tianqi jumped to my side and said to me, vaguely blocking my view of Baizhi.
“…”
No, I know you are heartless and have no love for me, but could you please not interfere with my normal friendships!
You're taking your sister-con too far!
Aren't you just a beginner? Why are you worrying about me making friends with girls?!
[Host, I need to remind you that you are only wearing women's clothing, not undergoing sex reassignment surgery.]
[So I said you have absolutely no gender awareness!]
I love what I do. I'm just playing a girl right now! And the protagonist doesn't even know I'm just a womanizer!
[Hmm. Hmm.]
I:……
The frequency of dumping corpses gradually slowed down, perhaps because the landlord had no more food left, or perhaps he realized that my fire really burned everything.
It feels a bit like a broken jar.
After all, he is an abnormal being who has lived for thousands of years, so it is normal for him to be more humane.
Then a familiar red roof appeared in front of him.
"ah?"
I looked at Zhou Tianqi blankly, grabbed each other's hands, and ran in different directions in tacit understanding.
Then it ended with me using brute force to drag Zhou Tianqi away.
"No, I think the protagonist simply reacts faster than you. This is probably the calmness of an adult in the second round."
[So why have you, the host of this world, become so childish? Where is your previous mature and reliable temperament? ]
Hey.
It feels so good to just go with my instincts without thinking, yeah——
[It's also very interesting to watch Xiaoyu grow up. She's a person I've never seen before. Yay——]
【Just spoil him! 】
Then Zhou Tianqi and I each took one, I picked up Baizhi and he picked up Liu Ke.
What does it mean that men and women should not touch each other? What do we ten-year-old children know?
Standing on the places on both sides, Zhou Tianqi and I dodged the falling platform.
The bells on the roof swayed rapidly, and the entire space began to experience different fluctuations. Obviously, the falling speed should have been very fast, but we all had a feeling of watching a slow motion.
There was a feeling as if the sky and the earth were collapsing and a beautiful building was falling to the ground. Some of the windows that were originally closed were opened, and one could see confused faces inside - they were the souls of those who had been trapped here before.
"No, what will happen if this place disappears?!" I asked Zhou Tianqi. Theoretically, when a general anomaly dies, the space will disappear as well, but this is a legendary anomaly that has existed for thousands of years.
Although Zhou Tianqi and I seemed to be fighting easily, if it were anyone else, it would be a desperate situation with no way back.
I can tell without thinking that this kind of space must be different from ordinary ones.
Zhou Tianqi held up a large piece of ice and thought for a moment, "Maybe it will leave some traces in reality..."
"For example, if this place is blown up, a pit might appear at the corresponding location in reality."
Because he was holding Liu Ke in his hand, he couldn't gesture to me with his hands, and he looked a little regretful.
"What should we do now?" The place we came in was a school. If I leave any traces in the school, my future alma mater will be gone!
Zhou Tianqi obviously thought of this as well.
His expression became strange.
This guy wouldn't be trying to clean up the mess for the first time, right?
"Go up here and find the door we came in through."
We jumped up from the fallen platform. The platform had dozens of floors, and each floor was covered with dense carvings. Finding our door among them was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
"Release your avatar! Let him find it."
As soon as he finished speaking, Villar was released by me.
I'll go east, you look somewhere else.
Villar split the smoke tentacles into two parts, one of which was wrapped around my arm. The tentacle took over Baizhi, and I only needed one hand to hold Baizhi.
"Yes...I'm sorry." Bai Zhi's limbs were weak now, and her face was full of apology.
"Go out and buy me some milk tea." I simply decided on the thank-you gift and used my free hand to make a hand gesture, which made me run much faster.
The other tentacle went to Zhou Tianqi and was tied to his bun very rudely. His brother clicked his tongue and took out a rope to tie Liu Ke to his back.
The troops split into three groups to find the door.
After twenty minutes, I felt like my eyes were getting tired from searching but I still couldn't find it.
【Xiaoyu, this way.】
The small tentacles wrapped around me pointed in a direction, and Zhou Tianqi also responded.
A small tentacle grabbed his hair and flew wildly.
——Is this a personal vendetta?!
My scalp is about to be pulled off!
“…I’m going to kill you—”
I heard Zhou Tianqi say this.
You must be mad, brother.
I ran normally along the way. Zhou Tianqi was so angry that blue flames were all over his body. In order to prevent the small tentacles from grabbing him, he ran faster than the tentacles.
So there was an ice layer on the surface of the fallen platform. Zhou Tianqi stepped on the sword and slid on it. In just a moment, he was very far away from us, and he looked very cool.
"...Huh?" Bai Zhi looked at him in surprise, "Is this possible?!"
Me: “No, he’s just trying to show off.”
Then I took Baizhi's hand and said, "Hold on to me." A fire dragon appeared behind me, and I pinched my fingers and a shield appeared behind us.
As the fire dragon exhaled, a force pushed the shield forward rapidly.
"Hey hey hey hey——" Bai Zhi was caught off guard.
“Woohoo—” This is me.
I took Baizhi's hand and shot out directly, instantly surpassing Zhou Tianqi.
[I don't know why, host, you are like a stray dog right now...]
"I win." Standing in front of Villar, Villar's tentacles finally pulled me, and the small tentacles on Zhou Tianqi's bun pulled him back.
Then I was one step faster than him by a small margin.
High fived Villar.
Zhou Tianqi sneered.
Then Villar pointed to what he had found with a comradely look—
This is a very inconspicuous corner of the entire pavilion. How inconspicuous is it? This is the corner of a wall on a certain level in the middle. There are several pillars in front of the corner, and there are three layers of carved wood carvings hidden outside.
The carved wooden door shrank to the size of a palm, and was framed by several of Villar's tentacles in a small space.
"That's where Jerry lives, right?" I said, looking at the door.
Zhou Tianqi squatted down and poked the door with his fingers, but it didn't move at all.
Just in case I didn't touch it, the last time I touched it I was teleported away.
Then Zhou Tianqi exerted force with his hands, pried the door frame off completely.
Um?
Uh-huh? ?
The space around him began to shake violently, and the carved wooden door in his hand also began to deform, getting bigger and smaller, but the place where Zhou Tianqi was holding it did not move at all. A faint blue flame emerged from time to time, forming a circle of ice crystals on the door frame.
Then it stopped moving.
Then, in an instant, the platform we were standing on disappeared.
Villar caught us when we were about to fall in the blink of an eye - he is a truly reliable person.
Three people were hanging on the tentacles, and Zhou Tianqi was carrying a frozen tree man Liu Ke on his back.
The entire space disappeared, and the surrounding area was filled with boundless sky and earth.
Villar put us down, and Baizhi ran to help freeze Liu Kede with ice.
It was pitch black, with only a half moon hanging in the sky, emitting a little light.
“…Let’s go…let’s go…let’s go…”
An indistinguishable voice of male or female rang out throughout the space. The door in Zhou Tianqi's hand began to fluctuate again, turning into a stream of light and appearing under the moon, with the door wide open.
The "Inverted Hanging Temple" is driving us away.
Yes, there is only half a moon and a door left here, and even the landlord’s house has been emptied.
Zhou Tianqi didn't care about all this. He looked at me and pouted.
I:……
Cool guy, right?
Then he and I moved at the same time, I rushed towards the moon and he rushed towards the door.
Red and blue flames intertwined, the door was frozen, half of the moon was ignited and turned into fragments, and then the fragments turned into a beam of light and flew into the door.
"I got it." Zhou Tianqi held the door frame and took out two gems from it, one red and one blue. The two gems can be combined into one to form a round gem. Zhou Tianqi took a look, took out the red one and threw it to me.
It's the sun.
[Ding Ding Ding——Stage 2: Hanging View (Completed)
Mission Reward: "Protective Gloves"
Zhou Tianqi stood at the door and waved to us, "You can go out now."
When we walked out, we were no longer in the dormitory building we had been in, but in the playground. And the embarrassing thing was that it was daytime.
——There were students in class on the playground, and we were not clean at all. And there was also Liu Ke, who had wood grain on his face and had not woken up yet.
"Teacher—someone's wearing weird clothes on the playground!"
We are not what we don’t have, we just came out to save the world!
Zhou Tianqi had already gone up and carried the student who saw us into a small corner.
"Brother, killing to silence someone is against the law—" The student and I looked at him in horror at the same time.
He slashed my head with his knife and said, "If you keep saying that, I'll kill you first."
He has changed, and I am no longer his favorite sister.
[…No, it’s you who has changed. Host, don’t you think you’re a little too lively?]
