Chapter 174: Blood Beads

Three bifurcations became five!

"Sister...... Are you sure this is the fork in the road we just encountered?" I asked quietly, with a sigh of relief.

"Of course it is, the word 'Yi' I engraved is still here......" Hua Hai said, and suddenly his voice sank: "How can this be?!"

At the same time, Yoshiro also screamed softly.

As I spoke, the two of them rushed up to me and stood at the fork in the road.

I heard them both gasp at the same time.

By the light of the flames, we can see that five forks appear in front of us in a semicircle. Aside from being a little narrower than the previous three branches, each one looked almost unusual, and the entrance to the cave was dark, leading to the unknown.

"In just a few moments, three paths became five...... Could it be that we have made a mistake?" he hesitated.

"It's not wrong, this is definitely the position we set out for, and it's impossible for me to make a mistake in my own writing!" Huahai said with great certainty: "Moreover, my gold ring is not made of ordinary pure gold, it is very hard, and when it crosses the stone wall, some slight golden chips are left in the groove of the word 'Yi', you see." ”

Jicheng took a closer look, and I just glanced at itβ€”I believed my sister, and I trusted my instincts: this must be the ghost of the "light blue arm", with only one purpose, to make us choose the fork in the middle.

"It's illusion. Hua Hai looked at the more complicated intersection in front of him and said, "If my guess is correct, if we still choose the middle road and choose the other, then we will come back here again, and then the five forks in the road may become seven!"

"I'll look at the map again. I spread out the map, found the corresponding location, my heart suddenly jumped, I thought it was my own dazzle, called Huahai and Jicheng to look at it together, both of them were stupid: I saw clearly before, the three-way intersection on the map, at this moment clearly shows the five-way intersection!

"This map has always been on me. I whispered.

"This illusion is so powerful!" Hua Hai exclaimed, and lowered his voice again: "When I was a child, I heard my wife mention that in this world, there are all living beings, hidden dragons and crouching tigers, fairies and monsters, each with its own magical powers, and illusion alone is an unfathomable ability. Although illusion is just a kind of trick to cover the eyes, it should be very deep to reach this level, and even our map can be manipulated and ......."

"You mean, the five forks we see now and what is shown on the map are illusions, can the map still be used, and what is the real situation?" asked Yoshijo.

"Without this realm of illusion, the map can naturally be used...... It seems that this illusion is not only applied to one thing, but also to the three of you and me, the map, the tunnel, and everything around it!"

"In other words......" Jicheng wanted to continue to ask.

Drawing Helice interrupted him: "In other words, what you see about me and Meiyi may not be me and Meiyi's 'person'! The pill you find may also be just a stone!"

"It's not 'me', who is it?" Jicheng was very persistent.

"Then look for it too. I don't care what the stone is or not, as long as I find the 'light blue arm', if it doesn't hand over the real pill, I'll destroy it all!" I said quietly.

"Meiyi, rest assured, there is me. My sister nodded at me.

"And me. I'm the real Jicheng, not some monster who cast an illusion. Yoshiro pursed the corners of his mouth as he spoke. In this unpredictable tunnel, seeing his pear vortex again, I felt a sense of solidity in my heart.

"I'm just saying. The most powerful way of illusion is the combination of truth and falsehood, fiction and reality, which makes people completely lost in illusion and think that they are in the real world. Huahai explained seriously.

"At the end of the day, it's just trying to lead us into the middle. I interrupted them: "Whether it's illusion or not, I still feel the attraction of this fork in the middle, just now we chose the rightmost road, and found nothing, now it doesn't matter if he is a trap or not, just the middle road, let's break through first!"

"I agree. Jicheng nodded: "Anyway, there is no turning back, continue to move forward, and you can still fight for a glimmer of life for Forget Yan Jun." ”

In the dark tunnel, the face of forgetting words flashed, faintly stabbing my heart.

Hua Hai said softly: "Okay! I'll take the lead, and you will break the city." As he spoke, he slipped into the middle of the road.

I watched as the painted sea cat was hunched over and shrunk into the road, and the feeling of being pulled became more and more intense, and the footsteps did not obey the call, and almost involuntarily followed.

Jicheng muttered, "Why is it so strange, it seems that there is a rope pulling me." ”

"Keep up!" said softly without replying to the sea.

The three roads became five, and they were indeed much narrower, and the feet were potholed and uneven.

The aftermath of the twin-tailed demon was still there, and I no longer dared to reach out to touch the stone wall beside me, so I had to put my hands in front of me, shrink up, and follow my sister.

After walking for a while, Hua Hai suddenly retracted his feet, bent down, picked up something from the ground, and said softly: "What is this?"

Yosejo suddenly couldn't hold his feet and shrugged on my back. I had to quickly spread my hands and prop myself on the two walls of the tunnel, supporting him, and at the same time looking towards the hand of the painted sea.

It turned out to be ...... A tiny dark red feather!

"This is the right way!" Jishiro's voice pressed against my head, and his tone changed with excitement: "This feather must have fallen from the little bird that Danmaru was formed!

"Calm down. Huahai shouted softly, pinching the feather in his hand and examining it carefully.

I felt a burst of excitement in my heart: "Sister, this is the way, let's hurry up! That pill must be in front!"

"Flame!" called out to the sea, and the flame fluttered close to her hand.

I saw that the delicate little feather pinched between my sister's fingers flashed a strange red light under the light of the fire, as if there was a full life hidden in it.

Suddenly, I saw the feather trembling slightly between the fingers of the painting sea, as if it was because of the fire and the wind, and the feather was about to be separated from the fingers of the painting sea.

I had already withdrawn my hands from the two walls of the tunnel, and I couldn't help but rub my hands against my robe, except for the feeling of wetness and stagnation on my hands, as if something was still tangled in my fingers.

The three of us gathered together, staring at the dark red feather, wondering what it was going to do.

I saw that the feather suddenly left Hua Hai's hand, and Hua Hai was so shocked that he quickly stretched out his fingers and twisted the feather.

Before I had time to catch my breath, I saw that the feather was gently twisted, as if it couldn't bear it, and instantly shrunk into a drop of blood, which could hang on the fingertips of the sea of paintings.

It's really a drop of blood!

Before we could react, the blood beads seemed to have eyes, and they went straight across the sea of paintings, rushing towards me and Jicheng!

What a situation!

I instinctively tilted my head and exposed the city behind me to the blood beads.

Jicheng screamed urgently: "Ahhhhh

"Oops!", he screamed loudly, and fell hard.

There was no other way for him to hide than to fall backwards.

I stared at the bead of blood, how dare I look back to check the situation in Jicheng...... I'm sorry for the castle......

Unexpectedly, the blood bead was hanging in the air, and it was frozen!

"Don't move. Hua Hai drank very lightly, held his breath, and slowly stretched out his hand to grab the drop of blood hanging in the tunnel, a pair of eyes like two lights in the deep sea, calm, penetrating, and emotionless.

The blood beads paused like that, motionless, and a strange and magnificent faint blood light emanated from his body, looking calm and relaxed.

I stared at the blood bead, I didn't dare to move my eyes for a moment, and in a trance, I felt that it was not a blood bead at all, but a blood-light eye!

I was startled by myself and closed my eyes.

The moment I lifted my eyelids, the blood bead suddenly became difficult and slammed straight into Huahai's face.

Huahai was about to catch it, but when I was shocked, I had the same reaction: I stretched out my palm and blocked it in front of my face, as if subconsciously blocking the bright light that suddenly shone through.

The beads of blood rubbed against the white palm of the painting sea, spun around, and without hesitation, rushed straight towards me, impartial, and splashed into my left eye.
