The mountain wind whimpered and the mist thickened.
A muddy path stretches clearly from the mountainside to the top.
Less than 500 meters away from the top of the mountain, a fat woman was shot and fell to the ground, her blood gurgling, and she gradually lost her voice.
Yang Shan was startled by the sudden change. She looked around nervously and pulled Xia Tian: "Husband."
"do not be afraid."
Xia Tian hugged Yang Shan and patted her head, "With me here, no one can hurt you."
Yang Shan really felt safe in Xia Tian's arms, and then said: "What should we do now?
Is there a killer hiding in the dark?"
"not at all."
Xia Tian shook his head, hugged Yang Shan and stepped over the fat woman's body, and continued walking towards the top of the mountain: "There are no gunmen here, and there isn't even a gun nearby."
Yang Shan looked puzzled: "How could it be possible? Wasn't Liu Yan shot to death?"
"yes."
Xia Tian nodded and explained to Yang Shan: "The fat woman was indeed shot to death, but it does not mean that there is a gunman or a gun nearby."
The more Yang Shan listened, the more confused she became. She had no idea what Xia Tian was talking about.
Xia Tian turned his head and looked in one direction, and said lightly: "It doesn't matter if you don't understand. You will understand when you get to the top of the mountain."
"Who are you two and why are you here!"
At this moment, three people suddenly jumped out of the jungle on the side of the path and shouted at Xia Tian and Yang Shan.
Yang Shan took a look at the attire of the three people, with quivers hanging on their backs and homemade horn bows in their hands, so she guessed that they might be hunters nearby, and based on their ages, she guessed that they might be a father and son.
.
"Dad, someone died here!"
One of the short young men, less than one meter tall, shouted.
Only then did the other two people see the fat woman lying on the road. After checking for a moment, they screamed: "Yes, she was shot. He, they have guns in their hands!"
At this time, the three of them took a few steps back in panic, and raised the homemade bows and arrows in their hands.
"Who are you two and what are you doing in the mountains?"
Among them, the old man with a scar on his face shouted and asked Xia Tian and Yang Shan.
Yang Shan immediately explained: "I am the tour guide of Qingfeng Mountain Tourism Company, my name is Yang Shan.
We did not kill this woman, we are here to find two missing passengers."
Scar's old man's eyes were full of suspicion, and he said coldly: "If you are not telling the truth, there must be something wrong. Just arrest him and talk about it."
His two sons immediately took off the ropes from their waists and walked towards Yang Shan and Xia Tian.
"Husband, what should I do?"
Yang Shan didn't know how to deal with it.
"Little Lamb Wife, you don't have to pay attention to them."
Xia Tian said lazily: "These three people don't exist. It's all in vain for you to talk to them."
Yang Shan couldn't help being stunned. First she glanced at Xia Tian in confusion, and then at the three hunters who suddenly appeared. She couldn't figure out how these three people didn't exist.
"What are you doing, kid? Are you looking for a beating?"
The short young man felt very unhappy after listening to Xia Tian's words. He raised his hand to hit Xia Tian, but in the end he missed and was stunned.
Another older young man couldn't help but screamed: "What's going on?"
"call out!"
Scar old man subconsciously let go of his hand on the bow, and shot the homemade bamboo arrow at Yang Shan.
Similarly, the arrow passed through Yang Shan's body and landed on the ground not far behind her.
"This..." Yang Shan originally wanted to dodge, but now she was stunned. She could only look at Xia Tian again, hoping to get an answer from him.
Xia Tian yawned lazily and explained to Yang Shan: "Do you know about mirages?"
"Know."
Yang Shan nodded, and then she had a flash of inspiration and seemed to understand something: "Husband, you are saying that the three of them are...that's not right. If they are projections, how can they see us and communicate with us?"
"Who said they communicated with us?"
Xia Tian curled his lips and said casually: "They have always been acting according to the script, but the current scene happens to overlap with their script."
Yang Shan was still a little doubtful.
"You'll know when you read on."
Xia Tian didn't explain much, just said with a smile.
As expected, the performance of the next three hunters was somewhat inconsistent with the situation at the scene. First, the scar-faced old man was shot and fell to the ground, and then his two sons were so frightened that they ran away for their lives.
"This..." Yang Shan really didn't know what to say. She suddenly remembered the shot of the fat girl and asked Xia Tian: "Did Liu Yan also encounter this kind of situation? But it's not right. If it's just an illusion, she
Why did you die?"
Xia Tian did not explain, but slowly walked to the top of the mountain with Yang Shan.
The top of the mountain here is obviously not the top of Qingfeng Mountain, because there is no wooden house where Yue Qingya once lived, nor those beautiful scenery. Looking around, there is still a thick fog, and not far away there is a half-height man-shaped figure that is almost as tall as a person.
Meter-wide black crack.
"You watch."
Xia Tian picked up a stone from the ground and flicked it towards the black crack.
The stone seemed to disappear directly, and there was no sound of falling to the ground.
"Snapped!"
About half a minute later, a stone suddenly shot out of the black crack, directly hitting a nearby tree into two pieces.
"do you understand?"
Xia Tian smiled and looked at Yang Shan.
Yang Shan seemed to understand and said: "Husband, are you saying that the bullet was shot from this gap?"
"right."
Xia Tian nodded, "This rift is the vortex of time and space. Not only can it distort time and space, it may even connect to an alien world."
"Another world?"
Yang Shan knew about the existence of Yue Qingya, and naturally knew nothing about other worlds. She couldn't help but worry a little: "Then is there any way to... deal with this space-time vortex?"
"Of course there is a way."
Xia Tian had a confident look on his face. Twelve years ago, he was almost helpless when facing Wentian Jun's teleportation formation, but now this matter is no longer difficult for him. He thought about it for a second or two and said: "However, now
not the right time yet."
Yang Shan asked: "Why?"
"Of course I want to help you rescue those two missing idiots first."
Xia Yiben said to Yang Shan seriously.
"Husband, thank you."
Yang Shan was really moved and couldn't help but put her arms around Xia Tian's neck and gave him a long and affectionate kiss.
After less than half an hour, the two of them separated their lips and tongues with satisfaction.
"Let's go in and see what's inside this space-time vortex."
Xia Tian hugged Yang Shan's slender waist and slowly walked into the black crack.
Yang Shan said with some worry: "Husband, if we just walk in like this, will we get lost in there? Isn't it very dangerous?"
"Little Lamb Wife, don't worry, the level of this space-time vortex is very low, and it won't have any impact on me."
Xia Tian said with a smile: "Besides, even if there is any danger inside, your husband and I can easily solve it."
Yang Shan finally understood why Xia Tian was able to charm so many outstanding women. One of them must be Xia Tian's incomparable sense of security. No matter what happened, what accidents, what thrills... he could always look calm.
Dealing with it and then solving it in an understatement is really a charm that no woman can resist. It can even be said to be a charm that no one can resist. So it's a good thing that Xia Tian doesn't like men, otherwise the harem scene... would be unimaginable.
Xia Tian didn't pay attention to what Yang Shan was thinking at this time, he just hugged her and slowly walked into the vortex of time and space.
As soon as Xia Tian entered the black crack, he roughly knew where he was.
"Is this a tomb?"
Yang Shan also recovered from her chaotic thoughts, looked around, and couldn't help but murmur to herself: "It seems to be an ancient tomb from a long time ago, at least from the Song Dynasty and above."
Xia Tian was a little surprised and looked at Yang Shan: "Little Xiaoyang Wife, you are very knowledgeable about tombs?"
"That's not true."
Yang Shan laughed and explained: "I am a tour guide. I need to know all kinds of scenic spots by heart. Tombs are also important scenic spots in many countries and regions, such as the Taj Mahal and the Pyramids in foreign countries, the Terracotta Warriors and Horses in China, and the Haihun Hou
Tomb...I will also read some monographs like this in my spare time."
Xia Tian nodded and did not continue to ask.
"Are those two missing tourists really here?"
Yang Shan asked hesitantly.
"This space-time vortex is not big. You will know if you look around."
Xia Tian replied casually.
Sure enough, Yang Shan quickly found the two missing tourists at the base of a wall. They were two old people in their sixties. It looked like they had been frightened and had already passed out.
"Are they two okay?"
Yang Shan knew that Xia Tian had superb medical skills, so she asked.
Xia Tian only glanced at it and said: "It's nothing, it's just that the air here is thin and they passed out due to lack of oxygen."
"Then get them out first."
Yang Shan was a little worried that something might happen to the two old men if they stayed in the tomb for a long time, so she helped the two old men up and sent them outside.
After a summer of bone marrow cleansing and more than two days of double cultivation, Yang Shan was already equivalent to a cultivator at the peak of the foundation-building stage. It was easy to carry two stones weighing more than a thousand kilograms, let alone helping two old people.
So Xia Tian did not help. He was observing this ancient tomb because he did feel a trace of the aura of another world in it.
However, this time and space vortex only intercepted a very partial area in the tomb, and he was unable to determine the source of the alien aura.
"Husband, what are you looking at?"
Yang Shan returned to the tomb and found Xia Tian looking in a certain direction, lost in thought, and couldn't help but ask.
Before Xia Tian could answer, he saw a figure suddenly walking out of the shadows, pointing a pistol at the two of them, his eyes were gloomy and murderous.
