C44

Wu Ji and I had not walked very far when we saw a tree in front of us that was filled with red fruits.

"There really are fruits." I hurried forward excitedly.

In a tree that was four to five meters tall with no branches, Wu Ji easily plucked two fruits from them.

However, it was a bit difficult for both of us to hold the fruit in our hands because it looked like a combination of a pear and an apple regardless of its shape or appearance.

"Can it be eaten?" Although I was very hungry, I wasn't so hungry that I wouldn't choose to eat.

Wu Ji held onto a fruit in his hand. Seeing that he had used a bit of strength to split the fruit in half, the skin under the fruit was still closer to that of an apple.

"This must be some kind of apple, right?" With the bright red and juicy apple in my hand, I couldn't help drooling as I talked.

"Let me try it first." Wu Ji said as he prepared to bite

I pressed his hand down. "I think it's better if I do it. You can still carry me if I faint from the poison, but if anything happens to you, I'll go blind."

Without waiting for his response, I took a bite out of the fruit in my hand.

The taste was unexpectedly good. It was sweet in the mouth. Although it was not as heavy as the apple or Riko, the faint sweetness was also very refreshing.

Wu Ji said that I was reckless, I could eat, and the two of us waited for a while without feeling any discomfort. On the contrary, I felt that my mind was a lot clearer, but at that time, I only thought that because I hadn't eaten for a long time and finally managed to eat fruits, my body was recovering.

But the two of us didn't dare let our guard down. We rested under the tree for almost half an hour before Wu Ji was allowed to eat the fruits.

Then we each ate two of the fruit under the tree and took a break to continue our journey.

However, when she raised her head to look at the sky, she discovered that the sun was only slightly off from its previous position.

But it seemed to us that we had been walking for a long time, even though it was a long summer day, but the sun should still be in the west by now.

Wu Ji looked at the direction of the sun again, frowning. Maybe it's because we were too tired, so we thought we had walked a long distance, but in reality, we hadn't walked for a long time.

There was no better explanation.

We picked up a few more fruits and filled them up, ready to go hungry on the way, then continued on our way.

This time I kept a close eye on the time and roughly remembered the distance we had walked.

When we decided to rest next time, we looked up at the sun and saw that we were still a little west of where we had been before.

This time I was sure something was wrong.

Wu Ji said to him, I remember that we have walked a few steps during this period of time, with roughly ten thousand steps, adding up the time and distance of each step, we should have already walked for a few hours.

Even if we don't include the distance we've walked before, the sun should be in the west by now, and even the sky should have already turned dark!

Wu Ji heard and sighed, saying that he had already thought of this problem earlier, but was afraid that I would think too much into it, hence he did not tell me.

By saying this, he was even more certain that we were both right.

Even though we don't have cell phones or watches, we can still use clumsy methods to estimate time, but the results are too bizarre.

"This can't be a Xiao Xi Kou, right?" My first thought is that we are once again trapped in Xiao Xi Kou.

Because the Xiao Xi Kou's magnetic field was isolated from the outside world, it was possible that even the time was different from the outside world.

Firstly, the topography of this place, and even the sand and rocks plants, don't have any similarities with the Xiao Xi Kou at all, so it's impossible for it to be the Xiao Xi Kou, and it's even impossible for it to be near the village that we live in.

During that time, Wu Ji had wandered around the vicinity of Xiao Xi Kou in order to survey its topography. Even if he could not completely remember the details, he had an approximate appearance and since he said that he was not, then so be it.

"Could it be another strange ring, or a ghost wall, or even some formation barrier?" I wondered.

Wu Ji said that he could not be sure for now, but it should not be the Wall-Hitting Ghost. If there was something nearby, I would have sensed it a long time ago.

I think so too.

"Why don't you try opening your Divine Vision again and see if there's anything nearby." I thought suddenly.

Wu Ji was just about to do the same.

After meditating, Liu Ming closed his eyes and chanted an incantation.

I stood aside, not daring to disturb him. When he opened his eyes, I asked, "Did you see something?"

Wu Ji shook his head somewhat helplessly, and didn't see anything at all.

I felt something was wrong, but I couldn't remember what it was.

The words were clearly on the tip of his tongue, but he couldn't recall them at all!

As Wu Ji was pinching his fingers and making calculations, I suddenly thought: 'Isn't it too strange that you didn't see anything at all?'

Hearing that, Wu Ji looked up at me, and in an instant, he understood the meaning of my words.

"That's right, I didn't see anything. This is even weirder!" Wu Ji realized it at this moment.

This was because even if there wasn't anything negative in this forest, there would still be something else, be it the spirit of an animal or the animal or rogue immortal cultivator in the mountain.

These things all had their own auras. Since he had opened his Divine Vision, he should be able to see these dead spirit objects.

But there was nothing!

"There's nothing. What does that mean?" I asked.

Wu Ji said that it was the first time he had encountered such a situation.

However, there is no aura around us. There is a high possibility that we are trapped in some formation, just as I had guessed.

This was because the people trapped in the formation would be isolated from everything outside, which was equivalent to being isolated into another dimension. It was just like how Xiao Xi Kou and the aura outside were isolated from each other.

"But even if we are trapped in the array, what is the purpose of throwing us into the wilderness? If they were really going to trap us, there shouldn't be a need for them to waste so much effort, right? Besides, we're not some big shot and we don't have much of a family property, so why are you trapping us here? There's no point in doing this! " I was getting more and more confused.

Wu Ji couldn't come up with an explanation for now.

However, we don't have any tools around us. Even if we want to break through the formation, it would be very difficult, not to mention impossible.

After that, he had no other choice but to find out what it was used for.

Without cinnabar and chicken blood, they could only be replaced with human blood. Without yellow paper, they could only be replaced with stones.

Wu Ji bit his own finger hard, and used his blood to draw runes on the stone.

Because the blood on his finger was easy to kill, he needed to bite it off continuously. Standing at the side, I felt pain, but there was nothing I could do, because I was a woman, my Yang energy was not as strong as a man's, the effects of the blood runes would be huge, and because of my physique, I was even more scheming than normal women, so it was useless for Wu Ji to do it himself.

Wu Ji drew blood runes on three large stones in a row, and then placed the three blood runes in a specific location, and then chanted an array formation, in an attempt to break the array.

I waited for the sound to die down, not sure what was going to happen.

But after waiting for a good while, there was no change at all in the surroundings. Wu Ji kept using his fingers, but it did not bring about any effect!

After a few tests, Wu Ji stopped and said something strange.

"Can't I?" I asked.

Wu Ji said, he did not feel any formation around him!

Therefore, it was no wonder that there was no reaction when he used the blood symbol to break the array.

"Could it be that we guessed wrongly that there is no formation barrier?" If not, then what was the situation?

The two of us were puzzled. There must be a problem with the time here, but it's not like the formation barrier has trapped us here …

While we were guessing at other reasons, I suddenly felt something shake in front of me, like a reflection in a mirror.

I subconsciously raised my hand to block it, but that thing swayed again. This time, Wu Ji also saw it.

"What's that?" It was as if someone had deliberately shined a mirror at us.

The two of us looked in that direction. It was on top of the mountain. It wasn't very high, and there were still flashes of light from time to time.

Could someone be there?

If we find the others, we should be able to solve the problem!

Without hesitation, we immediately walked towards the place where the light was shining...
