Chapter 398 The situation is reversed
at night.
Ji Ziyin and Chu Yanqiu lit a fire and talked around the sleeping Shen Wen. The others had their own territories and left.
Ji Ziyin looked at Shen Wen's sleeping face and asked, "Why hasn't he woken up yet? How long has he slept? Is he okay?"
Chu Yanqiu looked confused and shook his head silently, "He has been sleeping for two days. Except for his uneasy brows in his dreams, everything else is normal. I don't know why he hasn't woken up yet."
Ji Ziyin shook his head and said, "It will be very dangerous if we continue like this. It's better for the two of us to take turns to stay by your side, otherwise..."
Chu Yanqiu said: "Otherwise they will be dragged away and cooked and eaten as food."
Ji Ziyin nodded and said, "I have been here for quite some time, and I have seen with my own eyes many times that they killed and cooked those who were alone or seriously injured."
When Ji Ziyan thought of the disgusting scene at that time, his face turned ugly.
Ji Ziyin said: "I don't know if my second brother will be affected by the Xunli Palace formation. If we both lose our minds at the same time tomorrow, then..."
Ji Ziyan didn't dare to continue. He looked at Shen Wen worriedly.
Chu Yanqiu reached out and gently touched Shen Wen's forehead.
Ji Ziyan was stunned. It was not until he saw this situation at this moment that he understood what it felt like.
Ji Ziyin threw a branch in his hand into the fire and continued, "There is one more thing I want to tell my second brother."
Chu Yanqiu turned around and asked, "What's the matter?"
Ji Ziyin said: "You know the legendary general's tomb. Every generation of generals who disappeared inexplicably over the years came to this place."
Chu Yanqiu looked at Ji Ziyin and asked, "You mean you have seen those people?"
Ji Ziyin said: "I have seen some of them, but many of the others are gone. They either died here or went to other places inexplicably. I heard that this Xunli Palace is just one of the millions of formations in the Bagua Formation. Those people probably went to other formations."
Chu Yanqiu asked: "How long have you been here? Have you been to other formations?"
Ji Ziyin shook his head and said, "No, if I had been to other formations, I would have disappeared inexplicably in this formation just like those people."
The two talked for a while and then went to bed.
When he woke up the next day, Chu Yanqiu first checked Shen Wen's condition. He shook him twice but failed to wake him up.
Ji Ziyin also woke up at the same time. Seeing Shen Wen like this, he sighed and said, "I'll go get something to eat and drink."
When Ji Ziyan came back, there was a tear on the sleeve of his right arm, which was originally intact.
Chu Yanqiu knew at a glance how difficult it was to find food.
Ji Ziyin looked at the torn part and said, "There is a river to the west. Every time someone draws water, they occupy the river. If you want to drink this water, you have to fight them once and win before you can get it."
Chu Yanqiu said: "I didn't expect it to be so difficult. I was in other places before, at least there was enough water."
Ji Ziyin handed the kettle to Chu Yanqiu, took out a few tree roots from his arms and said, "These were also obtained from those unscrupulous merchants through barter. I only exchanged some plants, and we don't need to eat other meat or anything like that."
Chu Yanqiu nodded, opened the kettle and took a sip. He almost couldn't help spitting out the muddy soup mixed with sand.
Chu Yanqiu asked, "So much mud and sand? Is the ditch you're talking about really just a small ditch?"
Ji Ziyin said: "What do you think? In a place like this, it's good to have water to drink."
Chu Yanqiu held up the kettle in his hand and looked hesitantly at Shen Wen and then at the kettle.
Ji Ziyin said, "You should give him something to drink. Otherwise, at noon, he will be exposed to the scorching sun and die of thirst before he wakes up."
Chu Yanqiu had no choice but to open the kettle and let Shen Wen drink some.
While the two men were eating the tree roots, the familiar sound of weapons clashing from yesterday began again.
Ji Ziyin sighed and shook his head, "It seems that today's time has been advanced again, second brother! I won't be able to control myself in a while, you...you have to stay away from him."
As time passed, the manic genes in Ji Ziyin's body became more and more difficult to control. He couldn't help but grab his chest and said to Chu Yanqiu behind him: "Second brother, you guys go quickly, I can't stand it anymore."
Chu Yanqiu felt his body and found that he did not have that manic feeling. He gathered his internal force in his palm and transferred it to Ji Ziyan to help him control himself.
Time passed minute by minute, and with the help of Chu Yanqiu, Ji Ziyan really did not have an attack. Instead, he was able to control himself and act as usual.
Ji Ziyan stood up, looked at the sun hanging high at noon and said, "Two hours have passed, and I'm actually fine? Second brother, I didn't have a seizure this time and I didn't go crazy." After saying that, he laughed.
Chu Yanqiu stayed by Shen Wen's side. Ji Ziyan went to the west to find some water and food, and the two had lunch together.
At about noon, the originally peaceful earth was awakened by the sudden sound of thunder. People who were busy in all directions suddenly scattered in chaos as if they were running for their lives, shouting: "Run! The evil beast is coming!"
Everybody was running in all directions, pushing and shoving each other in the chaos. Many people fell to the ground and were trampled by the crowd. It was a horrible sight.
Ji Ziyin grabbed Chu Yanqiu's hand and said, "The giant beast is here to eat people. Let's go to the rocks in the north to hide."
After saying that, he asked Chu Yanqiu to hold Shen Wen, and he grabbed his sword and bag, and the three of them retreated at high speed.
But Ji Ziyan's prediction was wrong. Just then, a giant beast ran out from the rocks and confronted them head-on.
If Chu Yanqiu hadn't pulled Ji Ziyan from behind, Ji Ziyan would have bumped into the giant beast's ankle and been crushed into a meat pie by the huge beast's feet.
There were two giant beasts as big as hills this time. The crowd was scattered like chickens, being chased around by the two beasts. Some were trampled to death, some were caught in the mouths of the beasts and fell to death. More people were trampled to death by each other.
Chu Yanqiu carried Shen Wen on his back and flew in the air. He happened to find a huge rock and put Shen Wen behind it. He turned around to look at Ji Ziyan, who was one step behind and was separated by the crowd.
He finally made the painful decision to leave Shen Wen temporarily and go find his elder brother first.
Chu Yanqiu moved quickly, and no matter how powerful the beasts were, he could dodge them with ease.
Soon Chu Yanqiu landed beside Ji Ziyin and grabbed him. The two of them flew over the crowd, using the crowd's shoulders to gain leverage and soon they were about to land in front of the boulder.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, a large eagle suddenly flew in the sky, descended from above at a high speed, and attacked the two of them.
The two men had no choice but to change direction, quickly jumped back into the crowd, and were swept away to the east by the panicked crowd.
Chu Yanqiu, who was at his wits' end in the crowd, was so anxious that he was about to curse.
The eagle flapped its wings and blew up the people on the ground like a tornado. People were blown up and down, causing even more disaster.
Soon, the two giant beasts were fighting with the eagle.
The eagle was the best in the sky. It was very agile and its huge claws grabbed the heads of the beasts. Once it succeeded, it flew into the sky, causing the two beasts to suffer a lot. The two beasts also had fangs, claws, and whip tails, and their jumps were comparable to flying. In the eyes of humans, they were like huge spaceships, covering the top of their heads again and again, blocking the sun above their heads. Wherever they landed, the pits they stepped on could bury hundreds of thousands of people.
They fought more and more fiercely, causing the entire space to shake. Shen Wen, who was placed behind a huge rock, could feel the destructive power even in his dreams.
Shen Wen could no longer dream. He touched his head which was disturbed by the loud noise. Without opening his eyes, he sat up, waved his arms in annoyance, and said angrily: "What are you doing? It's so annoying! Believe it or not, I will blow this place to pieces!"
The brain followed the mouth's associations and in the familiar weapons space, various types of missiles with warheads ready to fire immediately received the order and were ready to go in an instant.
Now, the scene was already chaotic enough, and the crowd was exhausted and had not yet found suitable cover when shells fell from the sky.
Fortunately, the missiles were accurate enough that none of them missed. The first two missiles landed on the beast one after another. The beast, which was as big as a hill, was blown to pieces without any hair left. The ground under the beast's feet was even blown into a pit.
Shen Wen was bombarded by the sound of missiles bombarding him. He opened his eyes the moment he was bombarded and couldn't help but say, "Oh no! Why didn't you control it?"
After six missiles were fired in a row, all of them were used up, and Shen Wen stood up from the ground.
He stood at the place that had been blown into a huge crater by a missile, his mouth opening wider and wider.
At this time, a small eagle fell gently from the sky, landed on Shen Wen's shoulder, and rubbed Shen Wen's neck with its furry head.
Shen Wen looked back, then looked around, not knowing where he was.
He looked at the corpses all over the ground, touched Diao'er's head and asked Diao'er: "Where is this place? Why are there so many corpses?"
This is not the point. He remembered that he seemed to have lost something?
At this time, the crowd hiding in the distance began to lean out from all directions and walked towards the pit. There were lightning and thunder in the sky and it began to rain. People looked stupidly at the long lightning in the sky and the cracks that split the sky, and they understood something in a trance.
"Did this split the sky apart? Will the formation of the Xunli Palace be solved? Are we free now?"
Because a thunderstorm gave rise to the light of hope for freedom, everyone jumped and danced in joy.
They looked at the young man with a bird on his shoulder at the edge of the pit. Perhaps it was his appearance that changed everything in Xunli Palace.
Everyone sang and danced around him, and immediately regarded him as a lucky person.
Shen Wen felt uncomfortable being surrounded by the crazy crowd. He carefully observed their appearance and expressions. Each of them had an evil nature. Based on his years of experience, he judged that they were all like criminals released from heavy prisons, with blood on their hands.
At this time, two people squeezed in from the crowd, one of them grabbed him, and the other blocked him behind him.
"Chu Yanqiu?"
He said that when he woke up, it seemed like something was missing, that is, he didn't see this person.
