Big Moon Ballad

Chapter 1598 Meeting

Tengu eats the moon.

Li Ji looked at the shadowed moon in the sky.

Back then in the cloud forest, he heard Li Zhao call it a "lunar eclipse".

Li Zhao told him that it was a very normal astronomical phenomenon, and there was no need to be afraid of it.However, at this moment, looking at the red moon slowly rising from the horizon, Li Ji felt a chill in his heart.

"Look! The moon is red tonight!"

Zhao Guang's exclamation came from the side of the ice tower nearby, and Li Ji gathered himself together, realizing that this was not a complete Tiangu eating the moon, and the part that was eaten was not a complete shadow, but dark red.

Just to the east and north of where they were standing, a round of red moon slowly rose. As the height continued to rise, the red color gradually faded, and the curved crescent that was originally hiding on one side became bigger and bigger. .

Such a lunar eclipse has another name.

red blood moon.

Li Ji stared fixedly at the dark red moon in the sky.

The first time he met Ying Bao in his life was under the red moon.

This time the red blood moon is only half a round, although it is not as scary as last time, but Li Ji felt faintly uneasy.

He had heard from Li Zhao that although celestial phenomena such as the red moon are normal, they do not appear often, and usually occur only once in a hundred years.

But this time, after only half a year, the red blood moon appeared in the sky again. What is the reason?
At this time, as the temperature became colder and colder, Li Ji realized that his exposed body was completely frozen, and his perception of the breath of other people around him was no longer keen.

The cold wind that shuttled between each ice tower became more intense, the cold wind howled, and the sound of the wind took away people's hearing, and even the call of Ji Jiashu from a distance became blurred.

Under the illumination of the red moon, every ice tower was dyed red.

The originally crystal clear ice and snow forest has become treacherous like a ghost.

Li Ji stared fixedly at the ice tower under him, found his own shadow reflected in it, and suddenly grinned.

His heart suddenly felt cold, but before he could see clearly, a sharp cry suddenly came from a distance.

It's a woman's scream!

Li Ji panicked, but the next moment he realized that it was not Ying Baoyue's scream, but Meng Shi's voice.

If he remembered correctly, Meng Shi followed Ying Baoyue and was second in the line.

Meng Shi's voice was full of terror, and Li Ji's hair stood on end, and he quickly swept out from behind the ice tower, hearing the sound and leaving.

The aura of the practitioner was mixed in the cold wind and it was extremely difficult to distinguish. Li Ji mobilized his true energy to the extreme, wishing to split the ice towers blocking the way in front of him. Fortunately, after turning around the four towers, Meng Shi's figure appeared in front of him.

Meng Shi stood under a huge ice tower, and there were two figures standing beside her, who looked like Ji Jiashu and Yeluhua from a distance.

Li Ji stopped in his tracks and did not come closer.

At this time, the two people beside Meng Shi raised their heads, and through the wind and snow, everyone looked at each other vigilantly.

Li Ji knew very well that at this moment they were all suspecting that the other party was a human or a ghost.

Under the glowing red light, Li Ji pulled out the giant sword and looked at Meng Shi who was staring at the ice tower in a daze, "Meng Jizi, what happened?"

Meng Shi turned her head blankly, her face was bloodless against the red light.

Seeing Li Ji's sword gesture, Meng Shi narrowed his eyes and confirmed the identity of the other party.

"Mr. Zhaohua," Meng Shi pursed her lips and looked at the ice tower, "the mark is gone."

Li Ji felt cold all over. They made an appointment with Ying Baoyue to leave marks along the way in order to avoid getting lost.

The mark disappeared, which meant that Ying Baoyue was gone.

Missed.

"What's going on? Haven't you been following her all the time?"

Li Ji's voice was dry, he didn't feel that his words were violent, but it sounded harsh in the ears of others.

"What are you blaming Ashi for?" Yeluhua blocked Meng Shi behind with anger in his eyes, "Do you think Ashi is not in a hurry?"

"I..." Li Ji was startled, not understanding why Yeluhua reacted so violently.

At this time, Ji Jiashu also had an anxious look on his face, "I didn't hear Baoyue's response when I just shouted. It's been so long now, where did Baoyue go?"

He slammed his fist on the ice tower, and the ice shards fell down.

Li Ji fixedly watched this scene, the blood-red moon shone coldly above the forest of ice towers.

Seeing a blood moon is like falling into prison.

Although Li Zhao denied it to him, Li Ji had heard of this sentence since he was a child.

If the moon changes color, there will be disasters.

What does this calamity refer to?
Li Ji looked at the terrified Meng Shi, the angry Yeluhua, and the anxious Ji Jiashu under the blood moon, and his heart gradually sank.

He didn't know whether it was the effect of the ice tower forest or the blood moon, but he found that the emotions of the three people were amplified at this time.

Thinking of the severed ice tower at the entrance of the ice tower forest and the practitioner who was cut in two, Li Ji was shocked. He looked at the three people standing together and shouted sharply.

"You three, all separate!"

The three of them were taken aback, but Li Ji didn't have time to explain to them. Seeing that Yeluhua and Ji Jiashu's arms trembled unnaturally to touch the hilts at their waists, he swung his sword decisively.

With a bang, the ice tower standing beside Meng Shi was cut down by the water magic sword, and the ice cubes cracked. The three of them jumped in three directions to avoid the broken ice.

Li Ji heaved a sigh of relief when he saw them separate, but the next moment a slender figure pierced through the ice and snow wind and hit him like an arrow from the string. Seeing that black figure, Li Ji widened his eyes in astonishment.

In the panic, the position where Meng Shi retreated happened to be in his direction.

In order to escape, she was extremely fast.

Li Ji immediately put away the Juque sword lying in front of him, and with a bang, Meng Shi's back bumped into his shoulder!

At this moment, in the dark, Li Ji heard a chuckle.

This laughter makes no distinction between men and women, as if the whole mountain is laughing.

Who is laughing?Why are you laughing?
Li Ji's eyes were suddenly shrouded in darkness. Just before he lost consciousness, he saw the changing light and shadow on the opposite ice tower forest, reflecting countless figures, and each silhouette was a scene in his memory.

But these silhouettes all appeared behind Meng Shi at this moment.

What's the situation behind him now?
Why did Ying Baoyue say before that in the forest of ice towers, two people can't get too close?
What happens if you get close?
Li Ji turned his head stiffly, before he could see clearly, he heard a familiar voice.

"Are you Xiaoshi?"

"You recognized me?"

……

……

"Jia Shu? Li Ji?"

Ying Baoyue walked alone in the forest of ice towers. She kept carving marks on the ice towers beside her, but she didn't get any response. She also went back to look for someone just now, but no one was found.

Looking at the blood moon in the sky, Ying Baoyue had an ominous premonition in his heart.But thinking of the strange things that happened in Moon Marsh Lake before, she felt that it might not be a bad thing for her to be empty now.

It's better to be alone than to attack your fellow man.

Ying Baoyue gritted his teeth and quickened his pace, wanting to leave this weird place as soon as possible.

But just as she turned around a forest of ice towers, a black shadow flashed in front of her eyes.

With a bang, she slammed into someone.

Who?
　The blood moon appears for the second time in this article~ In Chinese folklore, there is a saying that "if the moon changes color, there will be disasters".Moons of different colors represent different disasters, among which blue moons herald famine; black moons represent floods and large-scale outbreaks of diseases, and some folk warlocks believe that "demon stars come to the world" and "spiritual children reincarnated"; War and chaos.The year when Wang Jing rebelled in the Northern and Southern Dynasties was the earliest blood moon phenomenon recorded in historical books.However, from the perspective of natural science, the red moon is mainly an astronomical phenomenon caused by the refraction of light during total lunar eclipses and partial lunar eclipses.
