Gritting her teeth, Xili said in a low voice, her tone was very unconfident.
What the other party said was reasonable and well-founded, and it was not nonsense. After all, she herself knew what happened just now. She rushed out of the portal and bumped into the person in front of her. This is an indisputable fact.
, and the same goes for the bags that were knocked away.
She really can't deny this...
Shirley's eyes wandered and looked to the other side. There were many large and small bags on the table. Quite a few of them were crooked, and even the mouths of the bags were torn off, as if they had been treated violently.
Many things inside were also damaged.
Kikyo also quietly withdrew his gaze and glanced at someone calmly. When the white-haired girl knocked him over just now, she indeed caused a lot of noise. The impact was enough to break several ribs of an ordinary person.
, which is indeed a bit unexpected.
But——
Really important gifts have protective measures, and with this person's ability, it is not difficult to directly repair those damaged items... So, the reason why he does not take any action is to use this reason to try to dominate the current conversation.
?
"There is no money..."
Gu Mo's protracted tone also made Xili's heart lift.
The calm young man crossed his hands on his chin and looked back and forth at Xili with his extremely sharp eyes: "That's not without discussion. It's just like going to a restaurant. You eat but don't have money to pay. That's okay.
You can stay and wash the dishes..."
"Wash, wash the dishes?"
The white-haired girl was stunned for a moment, and she didn't understand.
"Then let me explain it to you, Miss Xili..." Gu Mo smiled and wanted to explain. He had such a plan. The talent of this girl of time and space is really powerful. This is the first time he has met someone who can
Characters who travel to the real world, regardless of whether there is a systematic interference reason——
Perhaps it is because not long ago, the dungeon entrance was refreshed in the real world, and the two time and space, which should have been like two parallel lines that never intersect, have briefly intersected recently...
Perhaps it is for this reason that Ciri, who possesses ancient blood and has the ability to master the "Gate to All Realms", accidentally has the opportunity to break into the real world...
Although all this is Gu Mo's own speculation, it may or may not be the truth, but he really can't treat it as invisible, especially when he doubts that the opportunity to return to the past copy world will fall on this white world in front of him.
When it comes to girls...
Xili bit her lower lip gently and listened to the explanation of the young man opposite.
Isn't this still the same thing, just a different way of saying it... As she gradually understood, she felt a little irritated, and even subconsciously wanted to hold her sword.
But it’s just “want”...
Impulsive emotions seemed to be just surging through her heart, but they were always suppressed and would not break through the threshold of reason. She was surprised to find that she was thinking more calmly than she imagined, examining the situation in front of her, and comparing
Considering the pros and cons, make a decision very rationally.
The uneasy negative emotions were well soothed...
Impulsive and irritable feelings are naturally suppressed...
Rationality gains an increase in willpower, but in turn overwhelms the power of sensibility. In a sense, this does help Ciri think more rationally instead of acting impulsively, but it also makes the situation become like someone
It went on as expected, and the rhythm was under control.
After a brief silence, Xili seemed to have made up her mind.
…………
……
On the empty sea, the blue sea and sky are the same color, seemingly indistinguishable from each other.
The sun is shining brightly, the air is fresh, and the sea breeze carries a pleasant smell. As far as the eye can see, there is only a horizontal line, where the sky and the sea meet... Looking at all this on the deck, the boy wearing glasses, Ah Wei, has a somewhat complicated mood.
Immortal fate and fairy fate are all in the word fate. If you meet it, it’s because fate has arrived. If you miss it, it’s because fate has ended.
Just like the empty sea in front of me, no matter how I traveled back and forth these days and searched over and over again, the island never appeared again...
There was a heavy fog accidentally the day before yesterday. God knows how violently the hearts of this group of people were beating at that time. They even wanted to shout out to vent their excitement and excitement. They felt that everything would have a chance to be repeated...
However, the disappointment is as great as the hope.
There is indeed heavy fog, but it is just heavy fog. It is a pure weather phenomenon and has nothing to do with anything else.
There was no change in the sea area in the fog, and the beautiful overseas fairy island with steaming clouds and rosy clouds did not reappear.
This is still the case today.
Clenching his fists tightly, the more Awei thought about it, the more annoyed he became, and at the same time, the more unwilling he felt. Although at his age, he should not be so crazy, but he had actually reached the fairyland.
For those who have personally experienced the modern version of Peach Blossom Spring, the more they recall the magic, the more unwilling they feel.
Calling wind and rain, immortality, the talk of immortals and gods...
Even the ancient emperors couldn't ask for it. Legend has it that it was once so close to him, and he could reach it if he wanted to, but he missed it so perfectly!
At the same time——
"Still can't find it..."
On the bow of the second floor above the deck, the steady middle-aged man seemed to be talking to himself. His sharp eyes were fixed on the boy below. Through the boy's profile, he could see the latter's annoyance.
, irritability, regret and other emotional expressions are all visible.
"Okay, I understand..." The middle-aged man nodded slightly, as if talking to himself, reached out and touched his ear, and received the latest order from his superior.
"Have the superiors decided to close the team, captain?" asked an equally capable young man beside him, probably having understood something, and there was a hint of regret in his tone.
"Well, after all, we have found nothing until now, and we cannot continue like this... The above has put forward new specific requirements, which should have been issued by now. You can check it yourself, and we will close the team after a while."
p>
As the middle-aged man answered, he looked up and looked around. There were more than one ship passing through the sea further away, and each ship carried a person involved... not even just the seven college students.
, even Uncle Yu and others who were on the fishing boat were also on it.
After all, although the latter did not land on the island, he was indeed one of the parties who witnessed the island's emergence at that time. Perhaps he can be regarded as a so-called "predestined" person?
Although I don’t know if this situation will be effective, the investigation team does have no choice but to hope that this group of people who have witnessed or even personally entered the non-existent secret realm can find the secret realm again.
It was helpful...but now it seems that there is no such thing.
Although various evidences indicate that this group of lucky or unlucky college students did inadvertently land on an island that only existed in legends, encountered some incomprehensible things, and ultimately missed the opportunity perfectly.
…But if you miss it, you miss it, and the island will not reappear because of them.
The middle-aged man silently looked at the boy with glasses below, thinking about the whole incident in his mind.
It's like a modern version of Peach Blossom Spring, but it's also like a reenactment of the story of the Lanke people, or a combination of the two... This group of people only stayed on the island for a while, and ate the food they had barbecued on a fishing boat not long ago.
The seafood has not been fully digested, but when we left the island, nearly ten days had passed.
Although it is not as exaggerated as the mysterious story of Wang Zhi in the Jin Dynasty, we can still see the same bizarre, mysterious and almost dreamy meaning from it.
It is difficult to explain clearly, and domestic scholars cannot figure it out clearly. They can only put forward some very immature guesses, which lack corresponding support from both practical and theoretical levels.
Are there really immortals in this world?
The middle-aged man frowned. Even though he was determined, he couldn't help but waver at this moment. After all, it was precisely because of this incident that it attracted attention, and their investigation not only failed to deny its authenticity, but further proved it.
Because of its authenticity, they took the current action.
"It's okay to end the operation temporarily, but the blockade here needs to be lifted, and the relevant personnel should let them return to study or work, so as not to affect their lives anymore?"
At this time, the capable young man had already finished checking the newly issued notice, and subconsciously exclaimed in low voice, and then looked up anxiously at the middle-aged man beside him: "You can't do this, captain! This is not giving us away.
Do you want to give the results to others?"
"How can we achieve anything? It's just because we haven't succeeded so far that we were stopped." The middle-aged man looked back and smiled to himself.
"But at least we know that this incident really happened, and we also know the sea area where the island appeared..." the young man said anxiously, "and those people are also on our side, and now we suddenly stop and lift this
The blockade of a large sea area and asking these people to go back will give those sharks who smell the smell of blood a chance..."
There is no airtight wall in this world. When the resources they control reach a certain level, those people will have too many channels to obtain information that ordinary people don’t know, and seize opportunities and advantages.
As it is now, although this matter has been deliberately downplayed, it has become a joke-like news. The public just thinks it is another scandal involving wild travellers. Unqualified tourists do not listen to the advice and run away without permission.
I don't like the idea of going to dangerous undeveloped areas and ultimately wasting rescue resources.
But some top people who are different from ordinary people and truly belong to the upper class know the specific situation of the matter and are beginning to get ready to take action.
"Isn't this great? Someone is willing to help us continue this work..." The middle-aged man showed a rare stiff smile and shook his eyebrows at the young man.
The young man was stunned for a moment, then he suddenly became enlightened, and his eyes became a little subtle.
Two hours later.
The ship returns to the port and berths at the shore.
After the final procedures, a group of college students were sadly told that it was all over and they could go back... It is difficult to describe how they felt at that moment, as if the heavy pressure on their bodies was suddenly gone.
, and it’s like feeling extremely lost when waking up from a dream.
They kept looking but couldn't find it, and their anxiety was indeed increasing day by day.
But the end of the search means the announcement of the result, which they completely missed.
The group of people felt disappointed and left the port. They said goodbye to each other and apologized to Uncle Yu and others. After all, they had caused trouble to them. Uncle Yu and others did not care about it, or were not in the mood to care about such things.
I also feel disappointed.
Shortly after the group parted ways, Awei took a taxi back to his residence. The familiar room he hadn't seen for a long time made him feel like he was in another world.
It was as if it was at this moment that reality hit him again, and all his fantasies were completely shattered. Life, studies, confusion...all the heaviness came almost at this moment, making Awei feel like he couldn't breathe.
, he clenched his fists in silence and let out a long sigh of exhaustion.
Without turning on the light, he relied on his memory and impressions to stagger to the edge of the bed, and threw his body onto the bed in the darkness.
There was only the sound of breathing in the darkness. I don’t know how long it had passed before a notification came from the phone. The screen lit up and illuminated a small space beside the bed. Awei grabbed the phone and took a look at it in a daze.
The message displayed on the screensaver is a text message.
The message from an unknown number straight to the point told him about something he couldn't let go of, and sincerely invited him to a certain address, saying that he hoped to cooperate with him...
Ah Wei was stunned for a moment and frowned subconsciously, but just when he was trying to get rid of his drowsiness and want to clear his mind, perhaps because the person on the other side had not responded to his message for a long time, a new message came,
This time it’s very simple, just show your sincerity first.
Sincerity?
Before Ah Wei could figure out what was going on, his pupils suddenly widened.
A transfer message from the bank, the number stung his eyes.
…………
……
Regardless of the disturbances from the outside world, Penglai Island is still operating in its own way.
It just changes its position every day, and only the barrier of time does not open again.
Firstly, it is because the phenomenon of unequal flow of time is too scary in the real world, and a little carelessness will cause a very troublesome situation. Secondly, it is to prevent Penglai Island from completely disappearing from the world. The Wild Hunt that Ciri was worried about has not disappeared.
A solution will come to your door...
The Wild Hunt is the cavalry of the elves in the world of Xili, officially called the Ain El clan. "Ain El" means "ancient" and "elder" in ancient language, so the blood of the ancients,
The title "Blood of the Elders" is not because of its long history, but its purely literal meaning - the blood of the people of Ain El.
However, Ciri is currently the only inheritor who has inherited the complete ancient blood, but the Ain El family has lost this ability. They used to be able to travel across the world, but now they can only go to other worlds in the form of ghosts.
, and they went crazy to take back the ancient blood, and became the "Wild Hunt" in many worlds.
They have been chasing Ciri. If the entrance to the dungeon that was opened not long ago is the intersection of two time and spaces, allowing Ciri to come over, then the possibility that the Wild Hunts are following her and coming together is not zero.
p>
Although several days have passed, nothing has happened.
However, Xili did not come during the period when the dungeon entrance was refreshed. There may be a huge difference in time between worlds. Maybe she rushed over there in just a moment, but half of the world here has passed.
Months are also possible.
So Gu Mo also took this into consideration and made corresponding preparations. If those ghosts rushed into this world and lost traces of Xili, there was no guarantee what those madmen would do——
Although the Wild Hunt are elves, they are not the elves that most people think of. They are a peace-loving race with pointed ears, using bows and arrows, elegant and passionate about art, and living deep in the forest. They are also persecuted and trafficked by humans.
The slave team captures something...
In fact, in Shirley's familiar world view, the Ain El family are warlike and fanatical conquerors. They once used their ability to travel across the world to conquer every world they could. This group of so-called elves massacred
Unicorns enslave humans and exterminate the indigenous peoples of many worlds...
However, after nearly half a month of squatting, nothing was achieved. Gu Mo originally thought that maybe the group of lunatics didn't have time to follow, and Miss Xili just caught the last train where two time and space intersected, and basically planned to give up.
Yes, but on the last day——
That night, an unusually strong wind blew on Penglai Island.
The uneasy atmosphere spread in the wind, and the monsters dormant in the mountains and forests were also keenly aware of the uneasy atmosphere, which seemed to be the silence before the storm.
"Coming..."
The white-haired girl who was having nothing to do on the island, wandering around and looking at the scenery, subconsciously clenched her sword, her expression became tense, and she became obviously very uneasy. That was her nightmare, and she could only escape in a hurry.
, adopted an escape tactic.
And like now, it was the first time to face him head-on. She was so nervous that her palms were sweating, and her shoulders couldn't help but tremble slightly.
Subconsciously looking in the direction of the crater over there, Xili suddenly felt a little doubtful under the pressure. Why did she make such a decision that day? She clearly felt that she agreed after careful consideration and rational thinking.
But now the more I think about it, the more doubtful I become.
She didn't know if there was something really wrong, or if she was just too cowardly, and she couldn't help but think wildly under the tremendous pressure of the Wild Hunt.
…………
"Here he comes..."
At the Roaring Cauldron, Gu Moruo glanced observantly over the island and noticed strange energy fluctuations appearing near Penglai Island, just like not long ago, before Xili suddenly rushed over from the portal.
The weird feeling is general, it is the fluctuation of time and space itself.
He can't understand it yet, but he can already feel it.
"Wild Hunt is such a considerate person. He even waited for me to level up before coming back..."
After opening the system panel and taking a look, Gu Mo calmly closed the properties page. His current occupation was "Alchemist-LV3".
After all, just like when the life level is low, it is relatively easy to upgrade. After nearly a month of continuous learning and recharging in the real world, his professional level has naturally been upgraded.
Therefore, the actual value of the mental attribute has reached 22 points, which is one point higher than before.
Gu Mo has become much stronger, his spiritual thoughts have become more and more vast, and he has an unfathomable feeling. The transcendent power of the heart over things is becoming more and more vividly felt in him.
"It's a pity that there is still no way to wait for me to steal another power..."
Putting away the slate and mask at hand, Gu Mo stood up and walked out with a little regret. If he could successfully transfer the power of "Night Walker" to himself...
Unfortunately, there is no hope for the time being. The remaining magic power of the mask seems to have become stronger, and it feels quite motionless.
…………
Penglai Island moves randomly every day.
However, it is not completely irregular. During this period, I have been wandering back and forth in the European waters, because European countries happen to be in the real world and have left a strong mark on the concept of Wild Hunt.
A civilized area...
emmmmm, yes, if big news is inevitable, they can just let them figure it out.
The wind screams in the night sky.
A thin ribbon appeared in the sky. It was a group of knights composed of ghosts, crossing the sky in groups...
…………
(PS: Qingming Festival and Ankang, everyone... I'm still outside. I took some time to code a little. When I go back tomorrow, everything will be normal. Well, it's normal...)
