Chapter 22: The Beginning (9)
"It can be assumed that the city is sealed in this place, and the way to enter it is by teleportation, just like when we came in. ”
Ilr pondered for a moment and nodded.
"And there is another circle in this city to amplify this darkness..."
Xingtian continued, "It's not really darkness, it's just blocking the spread of light. ”
"Originally, you should have been able to reach the border even if you walked in one direction, but there was electromagnetic interference everywhere, and the compass didn't work. ”
"That's probably why the walkie-talkie can't be used...... Il muttered.
"According to the normal routine, we should take the tinder out of our backpack at this time," Duran said as he pulled out the little ball, lit it, and crushed it.
"And then?" Mo Yu asked with interest.
Then he sprinkled as he went. Duran threw a small piece of tinder on the ground, and even though it was only a small piece, it burned for a long time.
"Light can't travel long distances in the dark, but it can travel where it's bright. In this way, we sprinkle a little bit at each stage of the walk, so that the light is continuous. At the same time, a line we sprinkle can also be used to determine whether we are walking in a straight line or not. ”
Yi'er looked at Xingtian and Mo Yu, and the two nodded, the top priority was to get out of here, this was the best way at the moment.
About an hour later......
"I think we're out. Duran said, looking overhead.
The intense black had faded, and a faint blue arc could be seen in the middle.
The night has come to an end. The light is waiting for them not far away.
On the way, in order to prevent burning out in the fire, they sprint in one direction as fast as they can.
"The last rest, rush back to Peach Blossom Island as soon as you get out," said Il, pausing and taking off his leather armor at the edge of light and darkness.
Outside there would still be the scorching desert, and this was their last chance to rest, the water had run out, and they had to get out of this place of death before their bodies were dehydrated......
The light continued to increase, and Mo Yu threw away the torch in his hand. When they felt the obvious heat, Mo Yu glanced back, and there was only a black city wall not far behind them, as tall as when they approached it*.
They had walked out, but it was clear that this was not where they had been when they entered.
Xingtian took out his compass, and they had to go south to get out of the desert first. Then find your way back to Peach Blossom Island. They had entered from the east side of the dark city, and now they were right south of the city.
Half an hour later, they came to the river......
"It's time to think about the true purpose of this operation," Duran said as he wiped his face clean with a puff of water from the side of the boat, looking at Il, "this operation is definitely not as simple as it seems..."
"Do you think Elder Wu is lying to us?" Il raised an eyebrow.
"I can't talk about the lie, but at least it didn't tell us the details. ”
"If Elder Wu knows the details, what are you still asking you to do?" a sentence blurted out, and Il quickly realized that she had slipped out, and she turned her face away and stopped looking at Duran.
The atmosphere on the ship suddenly became awkward. The words that Yi Er said casually made Mo Yu feel like he had been pinched in his heart. Duran turned to stare at the water and said no more.
Even Peach Blossom Island, which is far away from the war, is it inevitably involved in these things?
The moment he set foot on Peach Blossom Island again, Mo Yu felt a sense of relief, and he and Duran looked at each other and smiled. No matter what kind of action is carried out outside, there will be a sense of security when you return to Peach Blossom Island.
"Ilduran, you're back. ”
A familiar voice came from the side, and Duran turned around in surprise, and Han Jiang was standing in the woods on the side.
"Yier, Elder Wu is waiting for you in the back mountain. Han Jiang didn't have the joy of reunion after a long absence, he looked at Il gloomily, "Radine is there too. ”
"General Han, what the hell is going on?...... you guys" Duran's words were stuck in the middle of it, and General Han had already turned around and left as if he hadn't heard.
"Duran, let's go back first. Mo Yu pulled Du Lan.
"No, I'm going to ask Elder Wu for clarification," Duran frowned and followed Yir towards the training ground.
"He can't get the answer he wants..."Xing Tian said faintly behind Mo Yu's back.
"Xingtian, what did you do before. Mo Yu suddenly wanted to get to know the taciturn companion in their group, "I find that I seem to know too little about you." ”
Xing Tian glanced at Mo Yu and did not answer his question.
"Mo Yu, do you know why we can't escape no matter how we can't escape?" Xing Tian walked towards the dormitory.
"Escape, flee from what?" Mo Yu followed.
"What are you running away?"
Mo Yu was silent.
"Everything in the world is exploring its own value, and you and I are no exception. But do you know what your value is? Do you know who's using your value?"
"I was a marksman under a general of the Empire, and that's it. ”
"Then why did you choose to leave?" Mo Yu asked.
"The general is dead. Xingtian filled the water bag by the well, took a sip, and then said, "Checkmate is scattered, it's as simple as that..."
"Simple?" Mo Yu smiled, "I'm afraid it's not that simple, right..."
"Elder Chen said that everyone who comes to Peach Blossom Island has an ulterior motive," Xing Tian sat down on the steps downstairs and looked at Mo Yu, "If you want, how about we exchange this secret?"
"Okay," Mo Yu chuckled, it wasn't a secret to him, "I'll start with that." ”
But it all started after I lost my memory:
......
