Big Moon Ballad

Chapter 1010 The Dead

Colorful flowers fell, like human blood flowing.

pat, pat, pat.

Big beads of sweat slid down the man's cheeks, seeped from the edge of the bronze mask, and fell on the remaining flowers on the ground.

In the woods, Li Ji looked at the flowers pierced by his sword, his chest heaved violently and he couldn't stop panting.

He just stood there and stabbed forward with a sword. It seemed like a simple move, but only he knew what he had just experienced.

The man raised his mask slightly, staring fixedly at the flowers on the ground that were originally human figures, his face pale as paper.

"It really is an illusion," Li Ji murmured, "It's not real, everything is fake."

He kept telling himself that everything he saw just now was false, until after repeating it hundreds of times, the chaotic real energy all over his body calmed down.

After he calmed down, he had time to look at his feet. The flower bushes that were originally in human form had been completely scattered. He pierced it, and was able to escape from the illusion and formation.

But Li Ji remembered very clearly that in the illusion, what he stabbed with his sword was not a flower bush, but a living person.

His sword pierced through the body of the girl in blue who was sitting on the steps, and pierced straight into the body of the enemy he hated the most who took away what he cherished the most.

The feeling of the long sword piercing through the human body still remained in his hand. Li Ji looked at the residual flowers on the ground, his heart beating like a drum, and sweat poured down like rain.

If he didn't remember that his sword couldn't hurt his sister at all, if his memory wasn't clear at all, he couldn't even recall her sister's appearance, even if he knew it was a false memory, he wouldn't be able to strike at all.

Li Ji looked around, with lingering fear in his heart.

He knew that he could escape from the illusion this time because of his own unclear memory, otherwise, with his obsession with the past, it would be difficult to break free from this cage called the other shore.

"Huiji will be hurt, and love will not last?" Li Ji murmured, looking at the bloody palm he held.

This is the motto engraved in Huarong Dao, and it is also the key to breaking the formation. The more people who fit these eight characters, the harder it is to get out of this formation.

However, for practitioners, as long as the realm is high enough, the longer they stay in the formation, the more they will realize the falsity of the dream. As long as they are determined, they will eventually be able to cut off the nightmare that breaks the dream.

After all, if you are trapped in the illusion for too long, you may lose your sanity.

Li Ji took a deep breath and looked around. The sea of ​​flowers all over the sky around him no longer existed. Voice.

Li Ji understood that he had walked out of the illusion and could go looking for tokens.

I just don't know what happened to Ying Baoyue.

While thinking about it, Li Ji walked along the path in the forest. He kept seeing other practitioners on the winding road, and many of them wielded their swords and fought against the flowers under the trees in a daze. , I am afraid that he is trapped in an illusion just like he was before.

But apart from those who fought wits and courage against the air, there were still many people whose eyes had regained their clarity. They searched around the forest with their swords in their arms. When they saw him approaching, their eyes were full of vigilance, but after feeling his state Backed away far away.

Li Ji quickened his pace and quickly shuttled through the forest. At this moment, he heard the sound of someone's footsteps coming from the bushes at the intersection in front of him. A group of people sensed his aura.

Li Ji took a step back and stared at the intersection, clenched the hilt of his sword tightly.

With a crash, a group of people came out from behind the bushes, and when they saw Li Ji, their eyes widened.

Li Ji was also a little taken aback when he saw this group of people.

"Mr. Chunhua?" Li Ji looked at the leading young man and called out his name.

Appearing in front of the road were Ji Jiashu and his party who landed on the island in advance at sea, the Chen family brothers Zhao Guangguichen and Xu Yishan were all there, and there were three more characters that Li Ji hadn't expected.

"The stepson of the former Qin Dynasty and the stepson of the later Liao Dynasty are also here," Li Ji said.

There were actually more Ying Xun and Murong Feixing in the crowd, and beside Murong Feixing stood the second prince of Hou Liao who claimed to be his second brother.

Although Li Ji already knew that this man was the eldest prince of Hou Liao.

Ji Jiashu was also stunned when he saw Li Ji, and when he heard Li Ji's question, he explained, "When we went ashore, we had conflicts with the Xirong people. Thanks to Fenghua, his elder brother and the former step-son of the Qin Dynasty for helping us, but Ying The stepson and his people got separated."

"Later we also got separated, but fortunately we met one by one after waking up. I don't know when the Xirong people will attack again, so we went together."

After listening to Ji Jiashu's concise explanation, Li Ji immediately understood what happened before.

Hearing Ji Jiashu mention "waking up", and looking at the pale faces of the people in front of him, Li Ji knew that they had also experienced the same "nightmare" as him.

"Looking at your expressions, I'm afraid you have also encountered that sea of ​​flowers, right?"

Ji Jiashu nodded, remembering what he saw before, the young man's face was as pale as snow, "You have also encountered it, it is really dangerous like never before, fortunately everyone came out."

Li Ji nodded slightly, his eyes quickly searched the team of Ji Jiashu and others, but he still couldn't find the person he was looking for.

The man's gaze gradually condensed.

Looking at his empty side, Ji Jiashu's expression also changed.

"Li Ji," the young man looked at the man wearing the bronze mask and asked firmly, "What about her?"

What about her?

Li Ji's shoulders trembled slightly, and he raised his head to meet the young man standing at the intersection, "You didn't meet her either?"

The faces of everyone who met at the intersection changed.

"What's going on?" Zhao Guang, who was half dead, finally caught his breath, and asked doubtfully, "Second Brother, isn't Her Highness the Princess with you?"

"We went to the island together, but we got separated when we got to this forest," Li Ji said, "After I woke up from the illusion, I never saw her again."

There was a moment of silence among the crowd, Ji Jiashu looked at the empty surroundings, and slowly clenched the hilt of the sword at his waist.

They managed to get together, but they didn't expect Dudu Ying Baoyue to disappear.

"We have already circled around from the east side of the island, but we haven't seen anyone. You came from the west side, and you haven't seen anyone. Could it be..." Ji Jiashu opened his mouth slowly, thinking of a possibility, his heart beat faster.

If Ying Baoyue had already woken up and started searching for tokens, with her foot strength, it was impossible for them to miss her in such a large range of activities.

There is only one last possibility left.

"Could it be..." Chen Zichu asked in surprise, "She's still awake?"

Li Ji couldn't believe this fact either.

With that woman's mental strength, didn't she come out of the illusion?

What did she encounter in the illusion?
"Anyway, let's find someone first," Murong Feilan interrupted, "If Her Highness the Princess hasn't woken up, she might be trapped in some small place. There are so many of us here, so let's look around, otherwise ..."

Murong Feilan didn't finish the rest of the sentence, but he knew that everyone present understood.

Otherwise, if a living person is trapped in that formation for so long, it might be a disaster.

"Okay," everyone present was more or less friendly with Ying Baoyue, and there was no conflict between looking for someone and looking for a token. Hearing this, they nodded, and started looking for someone in twos and threes.

However, as time passed, Li Ji walked step by step in the forest. He didn't know how many dead branches he stepped on, and how many clusters of flowers he passed, but he didn't see the girl.

Lin of the Dead is worthy of the name of the labyrinth. That girl has always been proficient in concealment techniques. If she stays in one place all the time, if she is unlucky, she may never be found.

Thinking of this situation, Li Ji's heart sank.

At this time, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him, and Li Ji took a sudden step forward, but what he saw was Ji Jiashu standing in the grass with a disappointed face and Murong Feilan frowning.

"How? Did you find it?"

Murong Feilan came from another direction and asked in a deep voice, Li Ji and Ji Jiashu both shook their heads.

Judging by their faces, the three of them knew that they had gained nothing.

Li Ji took a deep breath, they had been searching for an entire hour, but the girl was not found, and those of them who scattered to look for someone met them many times.

"This is troublesome," Murong Feilan said with a bad expression, he knew that Li Ji and Ji Jiashu were the most capable people here and the ones who walked closest to that girl, but they couldn't be found, it was really a desperate situation.

"If you can't find it again..." He murmured, a little desperate.

"There she is."

However, at this moment, a gentle male voice suddenly came from the front of the intersection.

The three of them were startled when they heard the sound, Li Ji and Ji Jiashu raised their heads, and were slightly taken aback by the scene in front of them.

At the intersection that was originally empty, stood a young man with a long sword across his waist and a tall body, raising his finger to the left.

The man was dressed in white, and he was extremely handsome, but the most striking thing was his temperament, with a smile on his face that made people feel like a spring breeze, and his every move was like a flawless gentleman who walked out of an ancient book.

It's just... Ji Jiashu felt as if he had seen this face somewhere.

Just when he was puzzled, Murong Feilan's breath around him suddenly changed.

Looking at the man in white standing at the intersection, Murong Feilan's pupils suddenly shrank violently.

Facing their scrutiny, the young man in white just looked at them and smiled, he slowly raised his hand and pointed in one direction, his voice was gentler than Qingquan.

"There she is."

　I'm going to cry
