Zhou Yan and Li Zhiwei shouted and soon attracted the attention of the little demons in the farm. It was the middle of the night and they had no time to figure out the specific situation. At a glance, they saw the house burning violently for unknown reasons.
Then he shuddered and immediately woke up.
"How did the fire start?!"
"I don't know."
The monsters have a strict hierarchy. When the small house caught fire, big monsters like the abbot were too lazy to care, but they would still be held accountable later. The small monsters hurriedly started to fight the fire.
In the panic, it was even more difficult to distinguish friend from foe, and the monsters were running back and forth.
Zhou Yan just like that, took Li Zhiwei and slipped out naturally. Li Zhiwei had never expected this development. Looking at Zhou Yan, the arsonist, with an anxious and uneasy look on his face, he talked to the monsters who came with him in fear, and he had no idea what he had done.
"Let's go outside and get more guys to put out the fire!"
After saying this, Zhou Yan and Li Zhiwei hurried forward.
The two men walked with a shoulder distance between them.
This place has reached the corridor leading to the exit. Zhou Yan didn't breathe a sigh of relief until now. As he walked forward, he suddenly thought of something and asked casually:
"When you were caught by that hungry ghost just now, why didn't you shout for me to save you?"
Li Zhiwei's eyes were big. She thought for a moment and replied:
"Because if I shout, you will definitely be exposed."
"If you are strong, you will save me if you want to, without me shouting; if you don't want to save me, I will only make you unhappy if I shout."
"And if you were just caught like me, it must have been very difficult for you to escape. If I called you and exposed you, it would only harm you."
"So I stopped shouting."
Zhou Yan felt that the little girl spoke very logically.
He asked with a smile: "Then you are not afraid?"
Li Zhiwei glanced at him and whispered:
"Scared, but when I looked at you, I was also scared."
Yes, they are afraid and terrified, but under this naturally occurring fear, they still do very courageous things. Their bravery under fear is actually somewhat surprising.
Zhou Yan was quiet for a moment, patted his legs, and sighed:
"I'm scared. My legs are a little weak now."
Li Zhiwei asked seriously: "I don't know what's going on outside. It could be a butcher shop or a 'ghost market'. It's still a little dangerous. Do you know what to do after you get out?"
Zhou Yan said: "We should take it one step at a time, it's better than being made into meatballs here."
He originally wanted to say, when a person dies, the birds fly up to the sky, and he will live forever.
I've killed so many monsters, it's always a good deal.
But it doesn't feel very elegant.
"oh."
Li Zhiwei lowered his head and thought for a while, then took the initiative to say, "I have a way to send a message for help, but I don't know if it will work. If it does, and if we can make it in time, someone should come to find us."
Zhou Yan asked: "Are you sure?"
Li Zhiwei said: "I actually used it once before I was captured. If they are really here, they should be nearby. Now I can use it again to tell them our location."
"At least, there is no other choice."
Zhou Yan said: "Okay."
From the little girl's conversation and calmness, he had guessed that she was at least not of ordinary origin. If reinforcements came, she could firstly escape from the predicament, and secondly, she could naturally enter human society. He felt somewhat relieved.
The two of them walked side by side. Li Zhiwei took out something similar to a talisman from the secret pocket in the seam inside his sleeve, and a drop of blood fell.
At this moment, Zhou Yan held his breath slightly.
......
Among the green mountains, a middle-aged man wearing golden Heavenly King armor and holding a long-handled sword looked sternly at the Bagua jade plate on his waist.
"Found it."
He took steps like a soaring dragon.
At the foot of the cliff on the other side, a man wearing ink-colored armor with mountain patterns remained silent, holding the sword at his waist. There was a faint glow on the bronze order on his waist.
"Someone was killed."
They moved from different directions.
......
The talisman in Li Zhiwei's hand lit up slightly.
Then, two faint lights lit up one after another on the talisman.
A smile appeared on Li Zhiwei's face.
She was still young, and her face was painted black, but there was a hint of beauty in her smile, and from the sense of security in her smile, one could see the intense fear in her heart beneath her apparent calmness.
"Someone!"
"There are two people... who responded to me in a special way. Besides, they are not too far away. It is safe for us to go out now."
She closed her eyes and her chest rose and fell.
Then she made up her mind and stuffed the talisman into Zhou Yan's hand.
Zhou Yan was stunned: "This is..."
Li Zhiwei took out another one, dripping his own blood on it as well, and whispered quietly: "I still have this talisman, but we don't know what the situation is outside. If it's dangerous, we can scatter and run. You have this talisman in your hand, so we can be found."
Zhou Yan was overjoyed. He grabbed the talisman, raised his hand and rubbed Li Zhiwei's head, saying:
"You're pretty good, little girl."
Li Zhiwei said, "You can see from his appearance that he is only one or two years older than me, but he speaks in a mature manner."
Zhou Yan touched his face and came back to his senses.
After he inexplicably came to this world from the mountain, he seemed to have become much smaller. Now he didn't know how old he looked. He held the talisman tightly and said, "It's almost time. Let's try to get out while there's chaos."
Li Zhiwei nodded, then suddenly thought of something, followed Zhou Yan closely, took out something from his second secret pocket, stuffed it into Zhou Yan's hand, and whispered:
"My name is Li Zhiwei, Zhi means know, Wei means Daoxin."
"The micro of Daoxin?"
"The heart of Tao is very subtle." Li Zhiwei smiled gently.
"My family taught me to always remember favors. I don't have anything to give you, but this jade ring was given to me by my mother. Please accept it."
Everyone she met before would accept her thanks politely.
But I won't take her things.
However, the young man in front of him, who had a somewhat rough and heroic temperament, took it without any care. After grabbing it, he casually put it in his pocket:
"good!"
Li Zhiwei was stunned.
Eh???
Eh? ! !
I almost forgot to follow.
Zhou Yan stopped and looked back, wondering, "Let's go, what's wrong?"
He understood and said with a smile: "Can't bear to part with things?"
Li Zhiwei raised his head slightly, then lowered his head, paused, and said firmly in a low voice:
"No!"
They had just been walking and talking in low voices.
Because of this inexplicable fire, the monsters were in chaos. Even the monster at the entrance came to help in panic with buckets of water. The two men were delighted and ran outside quickly.
We have reached the front of the forest, and the exit is right in front.
You can go out now.
Zhou Yan's consciousness touched the jade book in his mind. In front of him, the jade book did not find any breath that could be subdued, which meant there was no demonic energy. Zhou Yan felt relieved. It seemed that all the monsters nearby were attracted by the fire.
Zhou Yan grabbed Li Zhiwei, who was hesitant and worried about the situation outside, and strode forward.
After walking a dozen steps, which was about twenty or thirty breaths, I glanced around and saw an acquaintance.
Although we are acquaintances, we have only met once.
When he was caught by Butcher Zhao, one of the people who were also tied up seemed to be not dead yet. He was tied here with straw ropes, his face was pale. The monsters that were supposed to guard him were all led away by the fire set by Zhou Yan.
It's safe here.
Seeing people in the same miserable situation, Zhou Yan decided to help them to the best of his ability.
They are all here at the entrance.
After leaving here, everyone went their separate ways.
The man also saw them - this was natural. There was only one path leading outside, and it was very straight, making it difficult for anyone to avoid his sight.
Then, the numb man saw Zhou Yan's face.
It seemed that there were very few people who could kick the butcher in the face when being sold, which left a deep impression on him and he recognized him at once.
Then his eyes suddenly widened, just like Li Zhiwei's at that time.
Zhou Yan signaled him not to speak, but the man's expression twisted, and he paused, then opened his mouth. He strained his throat and made a sharp, mixed sound of flattery and anger:
"Someone escaped!!!"
"Someone is running away!!"
His face was pale, but his eyes were bloodshot due to fear and excitement. He stared at Zhou Yan blankly, his breathing became rapid and heavy, and his expression was distorted.
We are in hell together and perish together!
How can you run?!
How dare you run? ! !
I'm going to pull you down, pull you down!
Let's die together, let's die together. If I catch you, I can live. I can step on your corpse and eat your corpse. I can live, I can live!
That person had not thought about the possibility that the other party would come to save him. With red eyes and a loud voice, he screamed in a sharp, angry, unwilling, yet humble and flattering tone.
"Someone, no—"
"Meat sheep! It's not a person, it's a meat sheep!!"
"There's a sheep trying to escape!!!"
Zhou Yan looked ahead.
There is no evil spirit in the jade book.
But here, up front.
Are there really no monsters?
