Five Immortals Gate
Chapter 1778 The Lonely One (I)
However, they will definitely try the answer given by the old man in gray. Now that they are trapped in this magic weapon, in just a few days, they have already developed some despair.
That problem was like a damn curse, plaguing them all the time and making them uneasy.
They had no other worries about the answer given by the old man in gray. The two girls believed that the old man in gray was still unable to control this magic weapon.
Therefore, the worst outcome would be for them to hide in the front yard again, but the answer Li Yan gave seemed to make them think of some possibility.
"Sister, why does he help us like this?"
Mingyu immediately sent a message secretly.
"I don't know, maybe... maybe he has the essence and blood of the Immortal Nether Phoenix in his bloodline, which makes him more or less recognize our existence!"
Ming Qi gave a somewhat uncertain answer.
However, she couldn't convince herself too much. Wouldn't it be better if the other party obtained the inheritance of the Immortal Phoenix that might exist here? It would make this person even more powerful.
This is the greatest benefit of the monks, and everything else is far inferior to it.
But this can be explained by blood. Although the opponent is a human race, his body has indeed been merged with the immortal ghost phoenix.
The real immortal ghost phoenix may have disappeared in this world, or is almost extinct, and it is difficult to find it again. Their family's search process is the proof.
Then, under the influence of its essence and blood, a person has already recognized the relationship between the Immortal Underworld Phoenix and himself, and the idea of the same race may also appear.
Ming Qi understands this kind of loneliness. The identity of Immortal Ming Feng will be hidden from the outside world, and they themselves are eager to find the same person so that they can release their inner thoughts.
Otherwise, people like the old man in gray who have obtained the magical power of the Immortal Phoenix alone can only keep this secret silently.
Once it is known to outsiders, the old man in gray will also end up being refined by others. Although this reason is not sufficient, it can be regarded as an explanation.
It's just that the two girls would never have imagined that Li Yan was already laying a net for himself due to special sect reasons.
Any opportunity that is beneficial to Li Yan, he can sacrifice part of his own interests in exchange for more benefits.
Especially this time, he unexpectedly encountered monks from the Yin-Yang Chaos Sect in Huangqi Valley. This was something he had never expected.
But this is also because we are in Cangxuan Realm, so it is only a matter of time before we meet our enemies, but this time it is too much of a coincidence.
Li Yan always makes decisions before taking action. Although giving up the two girls may allow him to get more immediate benefits, rescuing the other girl will bring him unpredictable risks.
If the immortal ghost phoenix here did not die, but fell into a deep sleep similar to Pingtu, or was in seclusion for a long time.
Once he woke up in the end, he would be able to know the identities of himself and the two girls as long as he had a brief understanding of the situation, and he would immediately be in great danger.
But Li Yan still felt that due to the existence of Huangqi Valley, the chance was less than 20%. Since he wanted to get benefits, it was impossible not to take risks.
When it comes to scheming, the Ming sisters are also smart and wise, but they are still much inferior to Li Yan.
After Li Yan conveyed the message, he took a few steps back. He was not sure whether his answer could be used again after someone came out.
This was also the reason why he did not enter the courtyard again and try again. That would be an act of getting carried away.
They saw that after Ming Qi and Ming Yu heard his voice transmission, they did not immediately walk towards the circular arch, but their eyes flashed continuously. They should be discussing something through the voice transmission in secret?
Li Yan would not try to persuade him anymore, as that would be counterproductive. He knew that the other party would definitely try. It was not like he had not personally experienced the torture in this magic weapon.
The two girls were just trying to convince themselves that Li Yan was willing to take them out, but the result was indeed unconventional. It would have been better for Li Yan not to explain, but to let the other party make random guesses.
Sure enough, after only seven or eight breaths passed, Mingyu shook her head firmly and walked directly to the courtyard gate. Obviously she wanted to try it first.
Upon seeing this, Ming Qi's expression only moved slightly, and then she stood behind the opponent, with mana surging throughout her body, indicating that she was ready to respond at any time.
In addition to knowing about the attacks of those scarecrows, they didn't know whether other changes would happen after Li Yan gave the answer.
But at this moment, do they have any other choice?
Just when Mingyu stepped on the edge of the courtyard door, her body immediately stopped there, and Li Yan outside the courtyard was also staring at the door.
He discovered that the moment Mingyu stopped, the courtyard door that he could still see clearly suddenly disappeared.
Then the figures of Mingyu and Mingqi behind him were actually covered by a thick black shadow. Even with his spiritual consciousness, he could not see the two figures at all.
"You can't see the Scarecrow and the area dozens of feet near the courtyard gate. The thick black shadow should be some kind of defense. People outside the magic weapon can no longer detect the strange situation inside.
This should be to prevent anyone from entering from this direction, and to have someone stay outside to respond, so that the scarecrow cannot be attacked from both inside and outside..."
And just as Li Yan's thoughts were whirling, suddenly the scene before his eyes was another flower, a pretty figure suddenly appeared in front of him, and the backyard door appeared again.
But at this moment, Mingyu was standing outside the courtyard in a daze, while Mingqi in the courtyard had opened her red lips. Both women were obviously still in disbelief.
"I... I... really came out..."
Mingyu muttered to herself, looking around in astonishment.
And soon, her eyes quickly gathered again, and she turned her head to look directly at the courtyard.
"Sister!"
The brilliance in Mingqi's eyes in the courtyard had become extremely bright at this moment. Just when Mingyu looked at her, she had already walked towards the gate of the courtyard...
Looking at the familiar scene around them, Mingqi and Mingyu couldn't help but take a deep breath, and then the two women didn't need to communicate at all, and bowed deeply to Li Yan.
"Thank you, senior!"
Li Yan nodded, and didn't want to say more about this matter.
"Then let's take a look at the surrounding situation first, and then make the next plan!"
After saying that, his body was already suspended in the air, and the two women immediately followed and looked around at the same time.
There were spiritual fields here, but apart from large patches of weeds, they had not yet found any treasures, and those scarecrows did not exist at all.
In the air, the three people's spiritual senses were constantly exploring everywhere. Although Li Yan had explored the vicinity before, he only quickly collected the herbs here and did not search for anything else.
"Senior, I wonder if we can know how you came up with that answer? If the senior is not convenient to answer, just treat it as the junior talking nonsense."
While exploring, Ming Qi thought about it and couldn't help asking.
In fact, she and Ming Yu already knew the intention of the person who set the trap from the answer given by Li Yan, but they thought of so many answers and didn't think it was so simple.
During this period, the gray-clothed old man also failed again and again, but he was clearly exploring the south wall at that time, and then he left the courtyard. Could it be that he got some clues on the south wall?
But the situation there, the two of them also carefully explored it, and did not find any useful clues. They were very curious about this question.
"It's just a sudden inspiration, and I'm not sure this is the answer.
When I was looking for clues at the courtyard wall, I suddenly felt that the whole environment was too quiet, and there was not even a sound of insects in the bamboo forest.
From beginning to end, there was no flying bird in the sky. That kind of silence is actually normal for the secret realm. After all, the space is different. You can even regard it as a dead zone.
But if you stay in the bamboo forest for a long time, you will feel that the vitality of the green bamboo is more and more incompatible with the silence of the whole courtyard..."
Li Yan didn't hide anything about this, so he quickly explained a few words.
After he stayed in the bamboo forest for a while, he felt more and more uncomfortable because of a certain atmosphere.
Li Yan has been in Xiaozhu Peak for a long time, and his understanding of the bamboo forest may not be comparable to that of the two women.
After Li Yan reacted, he found that the green bamboo forest in the courtyard was too quiet. This quietness seemed to be deliberately created, not a real natural state.
That was because there were no insects and birds in the bamboo forest. Li Yan immediately checked the ground. He could not even find an ant on the ground in the courtyard.
This situation must have been noticed by Mingqi and the other two girls, but as Li Yan said, you will not find it strange if you think of this place as a dead zone.
Any space like a secret realm is different from the space you are in, or even completely different, so people who enter it will feel that it is full of alternative or weirdness.
After observing the sky, Li Yan did not find a bird flying by. They had ignored all this before, as if someone deliberately kept this place absolutely quiet.
Then Li Yan thought of the role of the scarecrow. When he was a child in the mountain village, he had made a lot of scarecrows and placed them in the fields.
The purpose is very simple, of course, to drive away birds from stealing rice grains.
Combined with the abnormal quietness in the courtyard, Li Yan guessed the answer to the question about the scarecrow, which should be to drive away outsiders who disturbed here.
However, out of concern, he added words to drive away the birds, and the last words he said to the scarecrow were very brief.
"Drive away all the birds and those who disturb the peaceful dreams!"
