63. Disappearing arrows
Just as the two fireballs in the palm of Ma Yun's hand were ready to attack, I hurriedly explained to her: "No, you see how many people I can't speak, I mean, you are sick, you suffer from multiple personality symptoms!" ”
Ma Yun withdrew the fireball and said suspiciously, "What do you mean?" ”
I coughed lightly and explained, "Simply put, there are two personalities in your body, or you can understand that two souls live together in one body, and during the day you are you when you are awake, and at night, as soon as you fall asleep, you suddenly change into one person, into another person. ”
Ma Yun fell into deep thought after hearing my words, and I hurriedly told her what happened last night.
"You mean, I came to your house last night and forcibly took the money away? And at that time, I claimed to be someone else, and I didn't use fire-based magic, but ice-based magic, right? ”
I smiled wryly, "What I said is true, you have to believe me." ”
Ma Yun didn't say anything, and after thinking about it carefully, she couldn't tell whether she had figured it out or not, but turned around and left the room without saying a word.
After a while, her voice came from the corridor: "Forget about money, I've been used to it for so many years anyway." ”
I was relieved to see her leave here, whether she believed me or not, at least my unjustified disaster had been resolved temporarily. Actually, the statement about dual personality is a guess on my part, after all, I have never seen anyone with this symptom, and if I want to explain what happened last night, it seems that this is the only reason to explain.
My mind is still full of suspicions, and I am no less surprised by this matter than Ma Yun, and the most critical question is: Who was that person last night? Could it really be a ghost who occupies Ma Yun's body?
She is an ice magician, and the purpose of snatching cold crystals must be to hone her magic power, but why do she have to capture so many cold crystals every day? Even if she eats, there is still a degree, can she use up so many cold crystals?
People will always habitually ignore some things that cost their minds, and I am naturally no exception, at this moment, there are two things that are much more important than this matter, the first thing is to find Xiao Nan quickly, and the second thing is to wait for the opportunity to leave the magic tower and escape.
I left the room and found Ma Yun, who was lying on the table with something written on a book, and when she sensed my arrival, she closed the book.
She asked, "What are you doing here?" ”
"I have a way to leave the Magic Tower, I can take you with me."
Ma Yun was stunned for a moment, then stared at me in surprise and asked, "What did you just say?" Do you have a way to get out of the Magic Tower? Do you really have a way? ”
I nodded affirmatively, "Yes." ”
Ma Yun's face suddenly showed a look of joy.
I pondered for a moment and said, "But I have one condition. ”
"You say."
"I was not the only one who entered the Magic Tower at that time, there was another person with me, but I was lost with her when I came in, I want to find her before leaving here, but I am not familiar with the environment in the Magic Tower, and I need your help."
The look of joy on Ma Yun's face immediately froze.
"The scope of the magic tower is very large, and I am afraid it is not so easy to find someone."
I shook my head and said, "Don't worry, you don't need to look for it, I'll just look for it, you just need to be my bodyguard and ensure my safety along the way." ”
Ma Yun said with a smile: "Okay, this is simple, I agreed." You go outside the cave and wait for me, and I'll pack up and come out as soon as I get there. ”
I nodded, turned around and was about to leave, when I suddenly remembered something and turned back again.
"By the way, there is another condition."
"You say."
"Last night, you had to teach me the magic you used."
"Okay, no problem, as long as you can leave this ghost place, don't say a single move, even ten moves are no problem."
I nodded with satisfaction, and was about to leave, but Ma Yun continued: "But I also have one condition, I can teach you magic, but you have to call me teacher in the future!" ”
I looked her up and down and muttered, "You're only nineteen, aren't you?" I'm only a year younger than you, and I see that I call you teacher, I'm afraid it's not right? Or do you want to change the name? ”
"What's so bad? That's what it is called! ”
I smiled wryly, "Okay! It's up to you. ”
In fact, it doesn't take much effort to find Xiao Nan, if you follow the method guided by the ghost last night, use the magic wand to guide the route, as long as you go in one direction, you can find Xiao Nan's location no matter what. The environment inside the magic tower is mostly plain, there are no mountains and rivers to block it, and there is no need to worry about walking into a dead end.
The only trouble was that we had no idea how far away Xiao Nan was from us, how long it would take, or how much supplies we would need to carry, so we hurried out on a new journey with almost no preparation.
We walked like this for most of the day, and as night approached, the snowfields that had been as far as the eye could see were gone, replaced by a lava purgatory.
Standing outside the unpretentious magic tower, I would never have thought that there was such a world in the magic tower, not only a snowfield in the white expanse of the sky, but also such a vast and boundless lava purgatory on the far other side, the cold air that was originally so cold that people shivered has long disappeared, replaced by a panicked hot atmosphere.
We kept walking, the tip of the magic wand that was guiding us was still glowing green, forming a small arrow at the tip of the wand to guide us forward.
I don't know how long I've walked, I've become numb, I've completely lost the concept of time, and I can't figure out whether it's the night when darkness has just fallen, or the night when everything is asleep.
"Huh? Something is wrong. ”
Ma Yun's call from the side made me wake up suddenly, and I asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Ma Yun pointed to the magic wand in my hand and said, "What about that arrow?" Why is it gone? ”
"Gone?" I exclaimed, and hurriedly looked in the direction of the magic wand, wasn't it gone? The emerald at the tip of the staff was still shining, but the emerald arrow that had been condensed by countless rays of light had disappeared without a trace.
I'm so anxious, what's going on?
"How could it be gone? Could it be that something happened to Xiao Nan? ”
The thought of this made me feel so shocked that I almost collapsed on the blazing ground.
"Huh? Wait, don't worry, the arrows are still there! We've already walked through it, and the arrow points to the back! ”
