Different from the pitch-black scene outside, there is a two-meter-diameter hole directly above this cave that is thirty to forty meters high. The light shines down from the top of the hole. Although it is not too bright, it is not so depressing at least.
When I first walked in, Zhuo Yi stood directly under the beam of light and looked up at the sky.
When she heard someone push open the door and come in, she didn't even look back, she came up and cursed: "What the hell are you? Can you go tell Fan Ji and tell her to stop ink? If you want to kill me, I'll behead you. If you want to behead me, I'll be locked up." Are you here trying to snatch me back and make me the mistress of the village?"
Her shameless attitude immediately made me laugh: "You are so narcissistic. Fan Ji is much more capable than you. Can people like you?"
Zhuo Yi was obviously stunned for a moment.
Then she turned around sharply: "Fuck, Gu Yan, you were arrested too?
I told you a long time ago that Shen Shi has a problem, that Shen Shi has a problem, but you just don’t believe it and insist on taking her with you all the time. It’s okay now. We’ve all been arrested by others. Come on, come on, tell me what to do now."
"Then what can we do? If we are caught, we will be caught. At least Zhang Qi has been found."
While listening to Zhuo Yi's words, I glanced at the stone slab in front of me on the left.
Then I saw Zhang Qi lying there quietly, with her hands on her chest, her posture was like that of a dead person, and her state was also like that of a dead person, motionless, and her chest did not rise or fall.
I asked Zhuo Yi: "What's wrong with her?"
"It should be some kind of restriction, maybe it was placed by Yu Chi herself. I have no way to break it."
Zhuo Yi came over with a stinking face: "Is there any point in asking these questions? None of the three of us can survive if we fall into Yuji's hands. We might as well just let her sleep."
I didn't say anything, walked to the stone slab where Zhang Qi was lying, and found an empty place to sit down.
I used my mental energy to scan around her current situation. It was not life-threatening, but the demonic energy on her body had almost dissipated, and the meridians in her body were blocked by some kind of force. Even if she was awake, there was no way she could escape from the outside world. Absorb even the slightest bit of power.
Her soul is still there, but her consciousness has been suppressed by that force to a certain point in her mind. In short, Zhang Qi is no different from a vegetative state now, and will not react to anything outside.
By deliberately not releasing the restrictions on Zhang Qi, Fan Ji was testing me.
I stretched out my arm to take one of Zhang Qi's hands. Her hand was so cold that it was almost frozen.
Looking at her unmodified face, I suddenly felt that her current appearance was actually quite distressing, especially the sad look on her face after she lost consciousness and the slightly frowned eyebrows. , will bring out the feeling of guilt in my heart.
I helped Zhang Qi cover her hands and asked Zhuo Yi, "How are you? Shen Shi didn't make things difficult for you, right?"
"What can she do to trouble me? I have nothing to do with her at all."
Zhuo Yi looked up at the sky and sighed: "He just mocked me a few times, saying that I still haven't made any progress after living for so many years. He also said that choosing a few of us as deacons was the biggest mistake of the Presbytery."
"Then what did you say?"
"What can I say? No one is stronger than me. If I am defeated by someone else, since my skills are not as good as others, I have no right to talk in front of others to avoid losing my price."
Zhuo Yi lowered her head. She now had a worried expression: "Gu Yan, I don't want to accuse you of anything. I can only say that Fan Ji pretended to be too good. Not only you, I also didn't expect that person named Shen Shi." A woman is what she pretends to be.
Anyway, whether I go to Sakhalin Island with you or accompany you to rescue Zhang Qi, this path is my own choice. No matter what happens, I will accept my fate and I will not blame you. But now we must consider a problem. .”
She came over and took Zhang Qi's other hand: "Do you remember what I told you?"
I shook my head: "You said too many things, I don't know what specific words you were referring to."
"I told you that I will never let myself fall into the hands of the Elders. If this really happens, I would rather blow myself up than take them away."
She laughed self-deprecatingly: "But now Fan Ji has placed a restraint on me. Even if I want to pull some backers, I can't do it. I have no choice but to self-destruct.
Gu Yan, I know that your witch clan has a lot of clever ideas, how about you find a way to kill me first, and then take Zhang Qi with you to scatter your soul?"
I didn't show any abnormality, I just asked Zhuo Yi in a very calm tone: "Does it have to be like this?"
"Yes, you don't understand the methods of the people in the Presbytery, but I know them too well. Believe me, you will definitely regret falling into their hands. It is better to kill yourself before being tortured."
Zhuo Yi handed Zhang Qi's hand to me: "I didn't expect that I would die together with you. Well, with you, an old monster who has lived for tens of thousands of years, to back me up, my life will be worth it."
"Oh, okay, okay, don't play these life-and-death dramas with me here."
I couldn't stand listening anymore, so I reached out and patted Zhuo Yi's shoulder, and poured a burst of spiritual energy into it: "Hurry back to find She Luo, and then take your people and let's leave here. The sooner the better, and then let's wait for She Luo later. So I got entangled again."
This action made Zhuo Yi freeze on the spot.
After hesitating for a long time, she felt that the restrictions on her body were dispelled by my spiritual energy. Only then did she react and exclaimed: "Hey, there are no restrictions on you?"
I shrugged: "Nonsense, if there are restrictions on me, how can I help you unlock them?"
"Damn it, why don't you have any restrictions on you?"
Zhuo Yi's eyes stared at the boss, and he came over and walked around me for a long time: "How did you deceive that Fan Ji and make her think that she successfully placed a restraint on you?"
I don't want to explain this to Zhuo Yi.
It's not because I'm impatient, but because it's too long to say.
So I told Zhuo Yi: "Don't ask, just follow me. I'll take Zhang Qi with me, and you can lead the way. Let's go find She Luo now."
Remember, when you go out and meet Fan Ji's subordinates later, you must not make a move with them. Of course, they will not stop you. If you make a move first and make them anxious, then you can stay and wait for Fan Ji to catch you. Well, I don’t care.”
After saying this, I stood up, picked up Zhang Qi and left.
But Zhuo Yi was a bit reluctant: "Wait a minute, Gu Yan, what the hell is going on? Tell me clearly, why won't Fan Ji's men stop you? Aren't you the one who wants to kill others?" Have you given me sleeping clothes?"
