100. Chapter 100 Fear
Author: half-cooked coriander
The branches extended silently, like ghost claws, grabbing at Ruan Nanxing who was trapped in the center.
Ruan Nanxing was immersed in her own thoughts and did not respond. However, the sapphire in her body suddenly appeared as if she felt danger, and then turned into a green snake, coiled around her, and confronted those ghost claws.
Ghost Claw sensed the threat from Qingyu and stagnated for a moment.
Qingyu spit out the snake letter, while being wary of those ghost claws, she wrapped her tail around Ruan Nanxing's wrist, trying to wake him up from his low mood.
On the other side, the simple-minded general had no idea what sorrow was. He howled and rushed towards the ghost claw, biting it with all his strength - if it didn't hurry up, the master would leave it alone and go away!
Gu Jiuzhou woke up the moment he was trapped, and then with a snap of his fingers, he froze the surrounding strange trees into ice lumps, then raised his hand and smashed them into pieces.
He flew away and returned to the same place not long after.
Gu Jiuzhou looked cold, "Illusion."
The spiritual sense has completely lost its effect here. When they entered the Forest of the Bright Moon and the effect of the divine sense gradually weakened, they may have been tricked bit by bit. However, this method was too gentle and it was impossible for people to guard against it.
By the time he realized it, he was already in an illusion.
Gu Jiuzhou was worried about Ruan Nanxing's safety, so he couldn't calm down and searched for flaws in the illusion, and finally used his strength to break the spell.
But a few breaths passed, and the familiar territory did not appear.
Gu Jiuzhou was stunned for a moment and then realized that this was not the real world, and all the rules were established by the creator of the illusion.
Obviously, the creator of this illusion does not know much about ice spiritual power and cannot recreate the ice realm.
Gu Jiuzhou didn't waste any time, and his spiritual thoughts continued to pour out from Baihui Point.
The birth of the illusion must have a carrier. As long as the carrier cannot bear it, the illusion will naturally be broken.
In another sense, force is used to break the law.
Sure enough, within a moment, under the impact of Gu Jiuzhou's powerful spiritual thoughts, cracks began to appear in the illusion, and soon it burst silently like a bubble.
Gu Jiuzhou opened his eyes suddenly and saw the lush woods. It was completely different from the gloomy feeling before. It looked much normal.
Ruan Nanxing and the general fell behind him.
The former was curled up, his face turned pale, and his condition seemed not to be good. The green flame between his eyebrows was also a little weak, and it looked like it was about to go out.
In comparison, the dog was much more active, and it was not honest when lying on the ground. It kept scratching with its four legs and opened its mouth from time to time, as if it was biting something.
Gu Jiuzhou picked up Ruan Nanxing, walked to a nearby tree trunk and sat down. He lifted her into his arms and pressed his forehead against hers. His spiritual thoughts surged out and penetrated into Ruan Nanxing's sea of consciousness, calling softly.
In the illusion that Ruan Nanxing was in, she was completely immersed in the emotion of self-loathing. She felt that living was a sin and she wanted to commit suicide immediately.
Under her influence, Qingyu became more and more depressed, and the surrounding ghost claw branches were about to move.
"South Star!"
"Ruan Nanxing! Wake up! Nanxing..."
Who is calling me?
Ruan Nanxing, who was almost squatting like a mushroom on the ground, finally had some reaction, but it only took a moment before he was pulled into a low mood again.
Gu Jiuzhou felt her fluctuations, and his voice became more and more gentle as he called her.
So noisy.
Ruan Nanxing frowned and wanted to cover his ears, but couldn't find the strength.
It's so noisy, no matter what I call it, everyone ignores me.
Gu Jiuzhou didn't know what she was thinking, but he could feel her mood swings getting worse and worse, which was a good thing.
"Nan Xing, I never told you. The first time I saw you, I thought you were special. When we were on the mountain, I always paid attention to you unconsciously." Gu Jiuzhou feels incredible when he thinks about it now, "
In fact, I could have left a sum of spiritual stones and left, but I accepted your proposal inexplicably, which doesn't seem like a decision I could make."
Probably, from that time on, before he even realized it, his heart had already made a choice.
Ruan Nanxing couldn't hear what he was saying at all, but she could feel the tolerance and love in it. Her originally irritable mood calmed down a little, and her brain became more active than before, but it was not enough to wake up.
Gu Jiuzhou paused for a moment, then changed the way to wake up: "The general knocked over your alchemy furnace."
Ruan Nanxing's breathing suddenly stagnated.
Gu Jiuzhou kept up his efforts and said "Ah" in a flat tone: "The elixir shelf was also knocked over, the elixirs were spilled out, and the general was still jumping. Ah, it trampled on the elixirs."
Ruan Nanxing's breathing became rapid, and the eyes under his eyelids moved back and forth...
Seeing this, Gu Jiuzhou unleashed his ultimate move. He said in a low voice: "A lot of spiritual stones were lost."
Ruan Nanxing opened his eyes suddenly and shouted angrily: "General!"
The dog that was scratching on the ground suddenly jumped up and made two "woof" noises before tilting its head in confusion. It didn't seem like it had made any mistakes, right?
Gu Jiuzhou pushed Ruan Nanxing back into his arms, who was about to beat the dog, and said quickly: "I lied to you."
Ruan Nanxing paused, "Lied to me?" She quickly reacted, with a hint of fear on her face.
She was just about to commit suicide! The feeling of extreme self-loathing was like falling into the deep sea. No matter how hard she struggled, it was useless, she could only sink, sink, and finally be buried in the deep seabed.
Fortunately, at the last moment, Gu Jiuzhou stopped her.
Ruan Nanxing turned sideways and hugged Gu Jiuzhou tightly, without saying a word, but his body was trembling with fear.
Gu Jiuzhou hugged her back hard, caressed her back with his warm palms, and comforted her in a low voice.
The general seemed to have sensed Ruan Nanxing's fear. He lay quietly beside the two of them, accompanying them obediently and silently.
After a while, Ruan Nanxing calmed down, took out a breath and asked proactively: "What happened to me before?"
"Consciousness has been dragged into the illusion." Gu Jiuzhou said: "80% of us have been tricked from the moment we stepped into the forest."
Ruan Nanxing was surprised, "So powerful? What is it?"
Gu Jiuzhou shook his head, "It's not clear yet."
Ruan Nanxing took a breath, and the fear that had been suppressed seemed to be reviving again.
She thought Gu Jiuzhou had already dealt with the enemy, but in fact they didn't even know who the enemy was!
"What should we do?" Ruan Nanxing asked in a low voice, "We won't be dragged into the illusion again, will we?"
Gu Jiuzhou looked at her thoughtfully and suddenly said: "Didn't I say before that I would teach you how to use spiritual thoughts? Now is a good opportunity."
Ruan Nanxing was surprised and asked: "Now? Is it appropriate?"
Gu Jiuzhou nodded, "There is no more suitable time than now."
Ruan Nanxing didn't know why, but out of trust in Gu Jiuzhou, she nodded, took a deep breath to calm herself down, "Let's get started."
Gu Jiuzhou first briefly explained the source of divine thoughts.
The so-called spiritual mind is actually the power of the soul, which can also be called the mind or the power of thoughts. Ruan Nanxing, who has cultivated the Dantian, can master it more easily than other monks.
Afterwards, Gu Jiuzhou recited a mantra, and Ruan Nanxing practiced it several times according to what he said.
After a while, I felt a force lingering in Baihui Point. It was different from the warmth of Qingyu. It was a cold feeling, like being suddenly immersed in cold water in the middle of summer. Ruan Nanxing's uneasy heart instantly calmed down.
