Volume 2: Memories of Yonghui (Part 1) Chapter 15 Who Cares Who You Are
The eight young men who were originally considered promising young men in the Xuming Realm, after helplessly confirming each other's situation once again, everyone fell silent for a rare time.
No one knows where this is, no one knows how to get back, and no one knows what to do next.
Pure white is the only theme here.
Looking up, there is a white sky;
Looking down, the earth is covered with white.
There seems to be nothing here except the whistling sound of the wind and the snowflakes falling in handfuls.
Fortunately, the eight people here can be considered powerful men with abundant spiritual energy. Therefore, in such an extremely cold state, as long as they mobilize the spiritual energy in their bodies to keep warm , they will not be too embarrassed.
What makes everyone feel helpless is that they don't know how long this state will last. After all, people are not made of iron. They need to eat and sleep, but there is nothing here. If they continue like this, let alone passing the third level, I am afraid that in a few days, everyone will become an ice sculpture on the snowy field.
Yao Ji didn't want to turn herself into an ice sculpture. She thought that she was not as beautiful as those girls, so even if she turned into an ice sculpture, it would definitely not be an outstanding work of art. So she was the first to break the silence: "Why don't we split up and look around? Maybe we can find some clues by looking around."
The first one to respond with actual action was the black-clothed man named Siqi. He stood up with a whoosh, shook off the snow flakes on his body, and shouted loudly: "That makes sense! Forget it, let's go find an exit first. Even if we can find some prey, it's better than waiting to die here."
These words really woke everyone up, and everyone felt that waiting for death was indeed the stupidest way.
The work was divided up in no time. There were three people who were proficient in the mysterious arts, so they were divided into three groups. In such a white environment, being proficient in the mysterious arts still had some advantages, at least they would not get lost. Although such function seemed to be no different from that of a guide dog, the three people who were used as guide dogs did not seem to have anything to complain about.
If they were divided into three groups, it would be difficult to allocate the people. There were eight people present, and everyone fell into a subtle silence again.
The man in black seemed to be in a group with the black-faced woman from the Kongming tribe in the second level. At this time, he was naturally looking at each other, while the black-faced woman was acting out of character. She looked calm and did not take the initiative to express her opinion.
This person is really unpredictable. He was very enthusiastic towards Mo Yi before the second level, but for some reason, he started to disappear in the three days after passing the second level. He was not seen all day long, and his attitude towards Mo Yi seemed to have changed 180 degrees. He was indifferent to Mo Yi and no longer had the previous enthusiasm.
Of course, Mo Yi was secretly relieved about this. If the other party was still as passionate as before, Mo Yi really didn't know how to deal with it.
Yao Ji naturally wanted to be with the Wu Cheng duo, because it was very relaxing to be with them, but from the way they talked, she knew that even a boring exploration would not be so dull.
Moreover, the other few people were actually still unfamiliar to her, not to mention the young man with long dark green hair, Long Yu. Naturally, he would also lead his own group and was not considered.
And Mo Yi, thinking of Mo Yi, Yao Ji's heart moved slightly, and she glanced at him seemingly inadvertently. Mo Yi shrugged his shoulders with an indifferent attitude, as if it didn't matter who he was in a group with. Seeing that he was silent and did not express his opinion, the girl naturally would not be so sentimental.
It was the jade-clad young man, Long Yu, who couldn't help himself first. He patted the shoulder of the most mysterious young man who had been sitting on the snow like a Buddha from the beginning, not saying a word or expressing his opinion. Then he pointed at himself, then at him and said, "I'll be in the same group with him, and you can discuss the rest by yourselves."
That young man was really an interesting guy. He raised his head and gave an expressionless look at the boy with long dark green hair. Without any hesitation, he stood up with a "click" and strode away in a certain direction. He didn't say a word from beginning to end, which made almost everyone present suspect that he was a mute.
Everyone then remembered that these two had been partners in the second level. It seemed that the second level had allowed them to develop a certain degree of tacit understanding.
Seeing that the seemingly mute young man was walking away quickly, Long Yu shouted, "Hey, wait for me." Then the other party obediently paused slightly, but did not even turn back.
Long Yu quickly told everyone: "Then let's set the time limit at three hours. If there is still no discovery after three hours, we will return here and reunite."
Everyone's faces changed slightly, as they all understood his other meaning. If they couldn't find it, they would come back. If they found it, they would naturally not come back. The other two groups would naturally know to chase in that direction.
After all, everyone knows that this is the third level of the trial. Although the person who finds a way out first is not necessarily the final winner, he naturally has more chances than others who have turned into ice sculptures here.
The alliance formed nowadays is also limited due to the current situation. We can share weal and woe, but we will never share wealth.
While everyone was still pondering the deep meaning behind his words, Long Yu took off his hairpin again and casually drew a circle in the air. Looking at the snow again, a deep blue beam of light suddenly appeared out of thin air. The beam of light suddenly seemed to fall from the sky, about sixty or seventy feet high, and when you looked up, you couldn't see the end at a glance.
On a vast expanse of white snow, such a deep blue beam of light is obviously very eye-catching, and it can probably be seen from hundreds of miles away.
"With this deep blue light column as a landmark, it will not be easy for anyone to get lost." Everyone looked at each other. They did not expect that this boy, who seemed to be the youngest among the eight, was so meticulous.
Watching the dark green long hair gradually disappear in the wind and snow, the remaining six people fell silent again. Since two of them had already left, the rest had to work in groups of three, but no one seemed willing to speak up.
The black-faced girl from the Kongming tribe, who had been silent the whole time, was the first to break the silence: "The two of them and I, and the three of you."
She continued to distribute the tasks, but her firm tone left no room for negotiation.
Unexpectedly, the companions she chose this time were the Wucheng duo, and Yao Ji, Mo Yi and the man in black were put on the other side without any explanation.
Although the Wucheng duo were not very happy to be in the same group with the black-faced girl, they knew very well that they did not have much say. After all, they had to rely on other people's mystical arts. Thinking about it, there was nothing wrong with it. At least they were not separated, and they did not have to be in the same group with the most disliked man in black. It was not a bad choice.
Yao Ji was slightly stunned, but she didn't know what to say. She looked at Wu Cheng and the other man reluctantly, but she was also a little glad to be in the same group with Mo Yi again. As for the man in black, well, everyone thought he was redundant.
It seemed that when everyone was pondering the deep meaning behind the distribution made by the black-faced girl from the Kongming tribe, she had simply thrown away her jingling accessories, and without looking back, she chose the opposite direction of the dark green-haired boy, leaped up, and disappeared in the white snow. The two men from Wu Cheng looked at Yao Ji deeply, and followed her without looking back.
Yao Ji, Mo Yi, and the man in black were left staring blankly. Mo Yi's face showed no unnecessary expression, as he didn't really care who he was with. The man in black, on the other hand, showed a playful smile at the result.
The black-clothed Si Qi was very interested in Mo Yi. In fact, he had already vaguely guessed the little thoughts of the black-faced girl from the Kongming tribe. The girl seemed to be very confident in her ability and believed that she could find a way to leave the snowfield alone, so she chose the Wucheng duo who looked the weakest among the remaining six without hesitation, because those two posed the least threat to her. The fewer threatening people who passed the level, the better it would be for her.
The man in black thought with some sarcasm, fearing that her cleverness would backfire and that those two would hold her back. He had a bad feeling that it would not be as easy to get out of the snowy plain as he had imagined, so he was quite satisfied with the combination of his group.
Let’s not talk about the little girl in green. Anyway, she is just a guide dog, so her level is not important.
But most importantly , the boy named Mo Yi beside him was very interesting. Although he did not seem dangerous at all, just like his appearance, he looked elegant and handsome. However, the short blade hidden deep in his sleeves made people pay attention to him.
The man in black actually wanted to know how sharp Mo Yi's short blade would be when it was unsheathed. He had a strong premonition that it would be a sharp blade that could kill people with one blow. Just thinking about it made the man in black's blood boil. If he was not in this place and time, with his competitive and martial arts-obsessed nature, he would have dragged Mo Yi to have a fight with him a long time ago.
If the cry of a giant bird had not brought his thoughts back to his senses, the man in black would probably have continued to sit here as an ice sculpture meditator.
He looked up, but was caught off guard by the sight of a giant bird spreading its wings and flying into the sky not far away. The two people sitting leisurely on the back of the giant bird were the green-dressed girl and blue-dressed boy who were supposed to be in his group. At this moment, the two little bastards seemed have completely forgotten about him, and were sitting on the giant bird leisurely and trying to run away...
The girl in green showed a look of reluctance on her face at this time, and seemed to be saying something softly, but the hateful boy in blue said a few words back with a teasing look on his face. Then the girl in green turned her face away and gently stroked the big bird's head. The big bird screamed and flew straight into the sky!
"You two little bastards, wait for me!" The man in black cursed and chased after them like a gust of wind! But he angrily saw the instigator, the little bastard in blue, waving at him in the sky, as if saying goodbye.
Thus, on that white snowy field, there appeared a strange scenery of birds flying in the sky and people chasing each other on the ground.
