(005) Bad luck and good fate
At this critical moment, a bamboo leaf, yes, a piece, swayed and fluttered on the top of Mo Yi's head, but the surrounding air flow was unusually calm, without a trace of wind.
Just as it fell on the head of the woman in Tsing Yi before, the bamboo leaf fell so abruptly and so accurately, Mo Yi's face became a little cloudy for a moment, because he felt the oppression brought by this bamboo leaf, which was a threat, or a warning.
That person, the legendary city lord, was obviously aware of Mo Yi's killing intent, so he reminded the young man in this way - restraint.
Yonghui City can only compete in martial arts, not kill people.
This is a rule, a rule that no one can break.
Mo Yi is a smart person, a smart person who knows current affairs, and knows that his every move is actually under that person's gaze, so he simply obediently gathered Fang Cai's killing intent.
He held the right hand of the Darkiron Short Blade and changed back to his usual grip posture, and then looked up at the sky with a somewhat playful expression, as if to say--Now you are satisfied, right?
It's not a bad thing to know that this city lord is everywhere, at least he also understands one thing from the side, that is, this array is mostly in danger, even if it is dangerous, it will not lose his life - because the city lord is not good at killing.
As long as life and death are not involved, Mo Yi is willing to play easily.
And the two who just appeared, the expressions on their faces at this time were even more exaggerated than Mo Yi. They also noticed the abrupt bamboo leaf on Mo Yi's head.
They actually didn't perceive Mo Yi's killing intent, Mo Yi hid it very well, and when most people in the world felt Mo Yi's killing intent, it was the moment when Mo Yi's blade slashed through their throats. Nayu people kill people, and what they pay attention to is that they invade like fire and do not move like a mountain.
Although he couldn't hide the person called Zhuo Ao, at least the two people in front of him were unconscious.
But they were still frightened and pale, what they thought in their hearts was different from Mo Yi, perhaps because they each had a weak heart, so when they saw the bamboo leaf that announced the existence of Zhuo Ao, they would subconsciously understand it as a threat and warning to themselves.
The two had actually just broken through an ambush and rushed over to catch their breath.
At the moment when he saw Mo Yi and Yao Ji, although he was also a little panicked, he was more happy.
Because they keenly noticed the spinning bamboo sticks in front of the girl in green. Everyone is a delicate person, and when they saw this bamboo stick, they understood the girl's ability.
As Mo Yi said before, although these two are considered to be the number one masters in terms of military cultivation, they can only stare dryly when facing the broken formation.
Although there have been many trials along the way, but always found themselves in this bamboo forest in circles, everyone knows that this way is not a way, but there is no way out, can only be like a headless fly in the bamboo forest.
But when they saw the girl in green, it was like seeing a ray of light, and when the clear-eyed people looked at her posture, they knew that the girl was a person who was proficient in occult arts, and her appearance of concentrating on meditation at this time was simply a victory in the eyes of the two of them, so it was no wonder that they secretly had in their hearts the idea of walking with the young girl.
It's just that this thought just appeared in his mind, and he saw the bamboo leaf on the top of Mo Yi's head, and both of them were suddenly frightened, thinking that their luck was detected by Zhuo Ao, so they floated a bamboo leaf down to warn them - young man, self-respect!
Although a certain person was already very heavy, the subconscious admiration and fear of Zhuo Ao still made him dispell the opportunistic thoughts that occurred in his mind for a moment.
The two visitors looked at each other, as if they had read the same thoughts as themselves from each other's eyes, and the soles of their feet were oiled, and they were about to escape, when an accident happened!
Because they are indeed too close to Mo Yi and Yao Ji! So as Yao Ji suddenly opened her eyes, the bamboo sticks in front of her flew away in an instant, forming a square enchantment in mid-air, just enclosing all four of them into the enchantment!
Like Mo Yi, they didn't have time to react, they only felt a shock to their bodies, and the surrounding scenery was already very different.....
In an instant, it turned gray and black. There were howls, screams, the clashing of blades, roars, weeping, mad laughter.
To their horror, the voices seemed familiar, as if they had only been ringing in their ears not long ago.
Immediately afterwards, he saw countless desperate eyes, pierced bodies pierced by spears, black shadows struggling in the raging fire, or figures engulfed by the whirlpool of the bamboo forest.
Yes, that is the people who broke into this bamboo forest array like themselves before, but they don't know if what they saw was their current miserable situation or their own hallucinations?
It's just that these four people didn't have time to think about it, and their limbs seemed to be pulled, broken, and torn, and the intense pain almost collapsed.
Soon darkness and silence descended. Probably trillions of years later, the endless wait makes people desperate, and even some pain is better than knowing nothing.
"Hey, wake up, are you going to sleep until dark?" Mo Yi felt himself being kicked by a gentle toe in a trance, and he tried to open his eyes, only to find that he had a splitting headache. I was about to reach out and rub my head, but I found that my raised left hand seemed to be extremely heavy.
Wait a minute! Why do you have three hands?
He looked back and forth blankly at one of his right hands and the two hands on his left that were firmly tied with a turquoise headband, one of which was so slender that it seemed to be boneless, and it was obvious that it did not belong to him. Oh, and consciousness finally returns.
Mo Yi subconsciously looked along the hand, only to see that the girl in green was sleeping on her knees at this time, with a look of exhaustion, the two graceful willow eyebrows frowned slightly, forming a faint fold in the center of the eyebrows, Hao's teeth bit her lower lip tightly, and bit the cherry red lip flap out a little blood....
Presumably, Fang Cai's breaking of the formation consumed her great spiritual power, and now although she lost consciousness, she still had a painful expression.
"Don't wake her up just yet, let her rest a little longer." Mo Yi's heart suddenly had such a gentle and pitying thought for no reason. He carefully shifted his sitting position, and the knee of his left leg, which was pressed by Yao Ji, stiffened and did not dare to move.
"Congratulations on passing the second level." The faint voice on the side only then regained Mo Yi's attention, Mo Yi raised his eyes, and was not surprised to see the indifferent appearance of the girl in Tsing Yi.
Did you finally break out? Mo Yi looked down at the sleeping girl on her knees expressionlessly, thinking to herself, it was really thanks to her.
Looking around again, I found that it was sunset, and I don't know how long they had been asleep? Looking at the surrounding scenery, it is not what it looks like when Fang just entered the battle, a row of bamboo houses are neatly presented in front of you, and on the steps in front of the bamboo houses, there are two or three equally exhausted figures sitting sparsely on the grass, and it seems that they are also the same lucky passers.
However, there are only a handful of lucky ones in this round, one, two, three, four... A total of eight.
Obviously, the girl in Tsing Yi was still slightly dissatisfied with this result.
Because there are only six bamboo huts arranged in advance by the owner behind him to rest for the contestants, how could there suddenly be two more people?
The master has always been clever, why this time....
What she didn't know was that Zhuo Ao had indeed calculated correctly, and only six candidates had the ability to pass his second level, which was full of mysteries and traps.
Zhuo Ao is not a very patient person, and the purpose of his Yonghui martial arts competition is not to give most young people the opportunity to communicate and compete, just to select the outstanding young people he likes, so there are not many people, as long as they are fine!
Those who only have ordinary skills, or have little potential, will be sent back to their hometowns in the second level, saving a waste of time, and leaving more time for the remaining few who are capable and talented, so that they can observe carefully.
Originally, there were only six young people who made Zhuo Ao look at him, but there will always be some accidents in the world, and no one knew that someone would suddenly break in when Yao Ji was about to break the formation, and they were lucky to be taken out of the formation together.
Sometimes, luck is also a strength.
Since this is the will of God, Zhuo Ao is not stingy to give them one more chance.
Since the owner has already acquiesced to this kind of luck, the woman in Tsing Yi naturally doesn't have much to say.
She looked at Yao Ji on Mo Yi's lap and the black-faced girl with fiery eyes in the corner, and then looked at the two who were supporting each other and trying to get up from the ground, and her eyes lit up.
"Everyone is tired today, this bamboo house is specially prepared by my master for everyone, let's rest and go. You have all spent a lot of effort in this level, so the third level of the competition is scheduled for three days later. After saying this, the girl's brows furrowed slightly.
She didn't know why her master was uncharacteristically indifferent to the group. In the Yonghui competition over the years, there are more cruel trials than this, but at most they will fight again after resting for a night, and this three-day period is obviously too generous.
However, since the master has arranged it this way, he naturally has his reasons, and the woman in Tsing Yi has never had the slightest doubt about Zhuo Ao's instructions. She collected her thoughts, and changed her words: "It's just that this room was originally only expected to have 6 rooms, but there are 8 of you." ”
After speaking, she pointed at the black-faced girl and Yao Ji with her finger: "You two are girls' families here, let's live together." ”
Then she pointed to the fat man who was lucky enough to be thrown out of the battle with Yao Ji and Mo Yi, half-human, half-demon, the woman in Tsing Yi didn't know that she and Mo Yi had some kind of terrible tacit understanding in this regard, and she actually used the same definition for that person.
"You two—" She thought to herself that the two extra lucky ones hadn't anticipated their room in the first place, and it made sense for them to squeeze in.
It's just that she looked at the figures of the two, and her face still looked a little embarrassed.
The Humpty Dumpty man was flattered and hurriedly responded: "It's no problem for the two of us to squeeze, so we won't bother the girl." "The eyes, which were already narrowed to a single thread, were now deeply trapped in the pile of flesh clustered together on the face, and it looked quite ridiculous, like a pile of big meat (dumplings).
This Humpty Dumpty and that one--eh, half-human, half-demon, at this time, thought that the two of them were hopeless to break the formation, and they were lucky enough to get through the test by taking shit luck and picking up a big bargain, where do they dare to pick and choose.
This is joyful, there are people over there who are not very satisfied, Mo Yi's sword eyebrows are deeply locked at this time, and he has already noticed the black-faced girl along the fingertips of the woman in green clothes, isn't this the girl of the Kongming clan who was rejected by him before.
It was also expected that she could pass the test, after all, illusion was also the director of the Kongming clan.
It's just that, looking at her still hot and stabbing at her eyes and the cruelty when she swept over Yaoji, Mo Yi's heart was a little faintly uneasy.
The Yao Ji on her knees was not exhausted originally, but because of the two people who came in temporarily, she consumed more spiritual power. He shook his head and the corners of his mouth curled up with a hint of mockery, not knowing whether he was laughing at Yao Ji's kindness or thinking that her behavior was stupid.
He knew that Yao Ji was a benevolent girl, and when the other party had already stepped into her formation-breaking enchantment, if she forcibly threw the other party out of the enchantment, she might not let herself be so exhausted, but the consequences of the other party would be very serious.
The light ones are thrown into the illusion and lose themselves.
If it's heavy, maybe even a small life will be lost.
Yao Ji must be clear about this, if she had been herself at that time, Mo Yi's choice would definitely be the only one, indifferent and decisive. As long as he can pass the test, what does the life and death of others have to do with him?
However, Yao Ji was not Mo Yi after all, but she stupidly chose to rather exhaust her spiritual power than take the four of them out of the bamboo forest array together.
At a time when everyone is preserving their strength for a later war, such a move cannot be said to be smart.
Perhaps the two people who were rescued were also deeply grateful for Yao Ji's hard work, and at this time, the two had already supported each other and walked over here, but the concern on their faces was not hidden.
"How's the little girl?"
"Is she alright?" As soon as the half-human, half-demon spoke, everyone was petrified, including the woman in Tsing Yi, who had always looked indifferent, and they couldn't help but look sideways. This, this turned out to be a completely charming female voice!
Could it be that "he" is really a woman......
Everyone's eyes quickly swept over the "wonderful", up and down, left and right, as if they wanted to strip it off and take a closer look, people's curiosity is sometimes very terrifying.
However, Mo Yi came back to his senses very quickly, he quickly shook off those inappropriate thoughts in his mind, and replied: "It's not a big deal, but the spiritual power is exhausted, and it is unknown whether he can return to the best state after three days." ”
Hearing this, the two lucky ones naturally had a look of guilt on their faces, which was expected.
And after the black-faced woman of the Kongming clan heard this, the expression on her face was unexpectedly calm, Mo Yi originally thought that she had always been hostile to Yao Ji, but at this time, she would be a little down. But unexpectedly found that she was much quieter than she imagined at this time.
It's not that kind of deliberate calmness, but there really isn't any joy. Is it because she disdains this kind of falling into the well? Or is it actually not in the eyes of Yao Ji at all?
This man's mind is a little unpredictable. originally thought she was a person who liked to be sexual, but unexpectedly found that the other party also had a deep side. Such a person made Mo Yi a little more vigilant in his heart, and he immediately made a decision in his heart.
"I'm in a room with her." Mo Yi carefully untied the tattered blue-green hairband that he and Yao Ji were tiaring, hesitated, stuffed it into his clothes, and then picked up Yao Ji and walked straight into the bamboo house in the center under the stunned gaze of everyone.
This stupid girl has lost all her spiritual power at this time, and if she is left in such a state to the unfathomable woman of the Kongming clan in the same room, it will be tantamount to a sheep falling into the mouth of a tiger.
Mo Yi felt a trace of pity for this honest and simple girl who liked to be reckless.
Perhaps, he just remembered a trace of companionship from Fang Cai, Mo Yi told himself in his heart.
