Before the sun completely set in the west, Chen Yi followed an unknown path to a county seat called "Gongzi County".

He had an impression of the name, but never came.

I casually found a noodle restaurant to settle dinner, and it was getting dark.

After paying the face money and carrying a large backpack, Chen Yi wandered the streets like a wanderer, looking at the bright street lamps on both sides of the street, and feeling the unique tranquility of this small city.

"Open a room. ”

After walking around the town twice and getting familiar with the environment, Chen Yi walked into the small hotel in the alley, took out a hundred yuan from his pocket and slapped it on the bar: "You have to rely on the window." ”

"Do you have an ID card?"

"No, is the ID number OK?"

"Okay, write on it. ”

The proprietress took out a small notebook from the drawer and handed it to Chen Yi. After Chen Yiyi scribbled, he followed the proprietress upstairs and entered a fairly clean window room.

"Hot water was always available, just leave it for a while. If you have something, go downstairs and look for me. After a few words, the proprietress closed the door and left.

Unloading his backpack, Chen Yi first carefully inspected the room to make sure that there were no cameras, bugs and other messy things, so he lay on the double bed in a large shape, relaxing the fatigue of the journey.

Nothing was said all night.

Early the next morning, Chen Yi woke up from meditation early, washed up briefly, had some breakfast in the snack shed next to the hotel, and then walked to the pedestrian street with the largest flow of people in Gongzi County, put on sunglasses, and sat in the shade of the tree to patrol.

Since fusing Shirayuki's pituitary gland, his eyes have been able to see the presence of spatial membranes and elemental particles.

And because the transcendent will unconsciously absorb elemental particles around his body, Chen Yi also has a magical special ability.

Use your eyes to judge which is the ordinary and which is the transcendent!

You don't have to sniff it up close like snow.

Therefore, he was able to implement the first step of the "study plan" - to find the lone transcendent.

Step 2 – Cultivate a mole.

Step 3 - Bribe the mole to gain knowledge.

It's troublesome, but there's no other way.

After all, in his situation, it was impossible to enter the transcendent force to study......

Time passed rapidly in Chen Yi's leisurely observation on the surface, but in fact he was engrossed.

In the blink of an eye, it was afternoon.

"Boss, bring me a cold drink. ”

Standing up, Chen Yi, who had a dry mouth, walked to a window selling drinks and handed out a hundred-yuan bill.

"What do you want to drink?"

"Anything, hurry. ”

"Okay, wait a minute. ”

After a while, Chen Yi took the change and drink, gulped down half of it, and sat back in his original position, feeling a little irritable.

I don't know if it's because the proportion of transcendents among ordinary people is too low, or because there is no transcendent power in this small county at all.

Seven or eight hours passed, and there were at least a few thousand people coming and going on the pedestrian street, but not a single transcendent person was found, all of them were ordinary people.

And this continued into the evening......

Nothing.

The second day, the third day, it was still the same.

It's not just a matter of low percentage.

There is only one reason, Gongzi County, there is no transcendent power at all.

It also made Chen Yi understand that the extraordinary forces are not cabbages, they are all over the world.

"Three or four days were wasted. ”

Sitting on the bed of the hotel, Chen Yi unfolded the provincial map and circled several cities: "I still have to go to a bigger place." ”

Turning his head and looking at the night outside the window, Chen Yi put away the map, took out the newly bought mobile phone in his pocket, inserted his calling card, and turned it on.

With a burst of music ringtones exclusive to the copycat machine, after the mobile phone was turned on, Chen Yi directly logged in to WeChat and sent a video chat application to his mother.

Three seconds later, Chen's mother's surprised face was displayed on the screen.

"Xiaoyi, where are you?"

"I'm in Chengdu, I've just finished chatting with you. Chen Yi said with a smile.

"Is your store open?"

"No, it's being renovated, and I'm still staying in a hotel. As he spoke, Chen Yi waved his mobile phone and took a picture of the room to Chen's mother.

"Don't worry, take a break. ”

"Yes, there is no hurry. ”

The mother and son chatted briefly for more than ten minutes and then hung up the call.

Chen Yi pulled out the phone card and put it in his pocket, holding the phone with his left hand.

"Bang. ”

The rectangular smartphone was instantly crushed, the screen exploded, and the battery caught fire, but it did not explode.

After waiting for the flames to finish, he picked up his phone and threw it in the trash, then picked up his large backpack, pushed open the window, and disappeared under the cover of night.

……

At the same time, Hecheng City, the suburbs of the mountainous area.

A team of mages finally found the spatial door that Chen Yi had left behind.

"Who opened this?"

"I don't know. ”

"Alas, how have there been so many things lately. ”

"As soon as the principal died, the academy was in chaos. ”

"I heard that the people from St. Paulina College are here, a student president and two professors. It's not going to fall into the ground, is it?"

"I want to transfer ......"

Several mages talked for a long time, repaired the space door, and then left.

And not long after these mages of Qingcang Academy left, the little snake head and the two professors appeared strangely.

"Qingcang Academy has been in civil strife. The fat professor muffled.

"It has nothing to do with us. The little snake bent down, and among the many footprints on the ground, he found the one left by Chen Yi, measured it carefully, and nodded: "It should be the space door opened by the lightning ball, and the weight is the same." ”

"That's good news?"

"Yes and no. ”

"How?"

"I can't say. The little snake head stood up and glanced at the fat professor, unwilling to explain more.

"Huh. The fat professor pursed his lips disdainfully.

"Little snake head!"

At this time, the thin professor on the side handed the mobile phone to the little snake: "I got the news, just now, the lightning ball made a video call to his mother." ”

"Where?"

"In the county seat of Gongzi. ”

"Hurry up and chase it!" the fat professor jumped half a meter high excitedly.

The little snake head pushed the frame: "Go eat the soil? ”

"So what do we do now? It's too passive. The skinny professor frowned.

"Let me think about it. The little snake head stretched out his index finger and tapped his head and asked, "In which direction is Gongzi County?"

"Northeast. ”

"In the northeast, which is the nearest city-level city to Gongzi County?"

"I'll see. The thin professor took out a map of Sichuan Province from his robe, observed it for a moment with the help of the bright light of the mobile phone screen, and said, "LC City." ”

"How many kilometers are you with Miyazi County?"

"Two hundred and two. ”

"What about the first city due north?"

"Yongjiang City. ”

"How many kilometers?"

"One hundred and three. ”

"What about the second city due north?"

"Mawangpu City. ”

"How many kilometers?"

"Three hundred and three. Entered the province."

"That's it!" the little snake head said with a glint in his eyes.

"How can you be sure?" said the fat professor with a skeptical expression.

"Now that he's gone northeast, it's impossible to come back anytime soon. And with the caution of the lightning ball, it will not continue to go northeast, and due east are large cities, and there is an official municipality, and the easternmost is the coast, which he will instinctively avoid. Then only due north and west remain. There is a part of the road due west, and it is night, so the chance of going west is not very large, and only the direction of due north remains. ”

The little snake took off his glasses, wiped the mirror, took them on, and continued: "The first city due north is too close, and his mentality at this time is more sensitive, so he should continue to walk or take a car. Mawangpu City is at a suitable distance and is in other provinces, although it is only a border between two provinces, but it will also make him feel relaxed. So, in all likelihood, he will stop in Mawangpu City. Do you understand?"

"Well... Seems to understand. The fat professor's eyes widened as he listened.

The little snake turned around and looked at the thin professor: "Open the space door and stay in Mawangpu City in advance." ”

"Good. The thin professor did not have the slightest doubt about the judgment of the little snake head, and the dim light of his right hand lit up, directly tearing open a spatial door leading to the mirror world.

……

The night still shrouds the land of China.

After four hours of continuous running, Chen Yi finally walked into this clean and tidy big city.

"It's here. ”

"Mawangpo City ......"
