Xiaolan ran at full speed, and Yuxuan's breathing gradually became shorter in her ears.
But Yuxuan didn't say anything, she gritted her teeth and persisted.
That does not work.
The two of them walked all day long. How could they cover such a long distance in one go?
Moreover, Yuxuan's injuries have not healed yet.
Thinking of this, Xiaolan stopped immediately.
"What's wrong?" Yuxuan also stopped suddenly and gasped, "Did something... happen... happen..."
"This is not the solution," Xiaolan took Yuxuan's hand and said, "Hold on to me."
Although Yuxuan didn't know what was going on, she was obviously used to this state of ignorance, and she held Xiaolan's hand obediently.
Xiaolan raised her other hand and drew a circle in the air. The place where her fingers crossed had the texture of water patterns. This was the spatial ability she got from Xiaoyin.
Squeezing Yuxuan's palm, Xiaolan resolutely pulled Yuxuan and jumped into the rippling ring.
Yuxuan let out a small, short scream.
The two of them just disappeared in place.
A water-like circle appeared at a certain location in the distance at the same time.
A hand jerked through the ring.
Then came the other hand, head, shoulders, torso, legs...
After Xiaolan pulled out the space chain, she quickly turned around to catch the staggering Yuxuan.
"Ahem!!...here...where is this...ah! Why are you here!..."
Yuxuan struggled to stand up and looked around.
This is clearly the clock tower that the two of them managed to escape from!
The two of them were standing in the middle of the huge but empty Bell Tower Square.
Xiaolan didn't have time to explain. Yuxuan probably understood the current situation based on the conversation just now.
"So it's possible that Meng Fuling's lair is in the bell tower, or even upstairs in the small dark room?"
When Yuxuan saw Xiaolan nodding, she felt it was really strange.
But there are too many bizarre things here, including this one.
The two first ran to the next room where the moonlight shone in and searched around. Sure enough, they found the lighting equipment. Although the light was weak due to insufficient power, it was at least better than being in the dark when paired with Xiaolan's flashlight.
"The door into the storage room is right around here."
Xiaolan pointed to the wall that at first glance showed no hidden door.
"The door is hidden in the pattern."
Yuxuan thought of her brother still lying alone below, and immediately started looking for the crack in the door.
"I'm wondering if the secret room is right next to the storage room," Xiao Lan looked at the extra three meters of space, "Yuxuan, look for the door of the storage room first, and I'll go there to take a look.
"
"good."
The two of them lay on the wall and groped with all their concentration.
It was Yuxuan who found it first.
"I found it!"
"Creak..."
A familiar smell came to my face.
Xiaolan also threw away her hand and opened the secret door.
"I think the wall next to it is fine," Xiaolan shook her head, "I guess the entrance is inside. Come on, let's go in now."
Yuxuan got her wish and walked gently into the dark storage room.
"Mingya? Chu Jing?"
Xiaolan tried to call the two people's names, trying to get lucky to see if the two were on her side.
The answer is silence.
All right.
A weak and trembling light source illuminated the surroundings, illuminating the wheelchair and tools that had been left here for who knows how long.
Putting the light source on a flat surface, the two began to search for the door leading to the next door.
**
On the street.
The blue light spot in Lao Luo's palm flickered, causing himself to frown for a while.
"What's wrong dad?"
Seeing his father's expression of confusion, Luo Jiutian asked hurriedly.
"This boy Baiyunqi's spirit is very strange. He is suddenly near and far away, strong and weak, just like..."
"Did he find out we were following him?"
Lao Luo shook his head, "It's not like that. Although the energy of the spiritual tide is changing, the direction of its movement has not changed. He has a certain place to go."
"Dad...can we really not find little girl Xiaolan in Panlong Pond?"
While Lao Luo was running with long strides, he unconsciously squeezed the artifact in his hand.
"I didn't notice Miss Xiaolan when she was here, but now it seems that it may be the same as I thought at first," Lao Luo said every word with great seriousness, "Miss Xiaolan has something to do with her."
Luo Jiutian's pupils flickered a few times, but his pace did not slow down.
"Are you sure?...sure..."
"Of course I can't be sure, how many years has she disappeared..." Lao Luo glanced at the sky thoughtfully, "It's just that when I was watching Miss Xiaolan show off her abilities, I suddenly thought of her and wondered if the two of them still have the same abilities.
Is there any connection? But when I heard Miss Xiaolan’s description, I felt it was different.”
"What if that girl doesn't know what her abilities are?"
Lao Luo nodded, "It is possible, Miss Xiaolan... Sigh... No matter what the relationship is, we must protect her, after all, the people related to her..."
Lao Luo was about to speak but stopped.
Luo Jiutian didn't seem to hear his father's words.
Lao Luo frowned and pursed his lips.
The two of them kept chasing at a suitable speed.

The three Taoist priests looked eagerly at the position of the formation eye.
"Telescope telescope!"
Pineapple slapped Maple Sugar on the arm to urge him.
Maple Sugar quickly opened his backpack and took out the equipment of the three of them.
"There is a bell tower. The center of this town is the bell tower." The Taoist priest took the telescope and started to look at it.
"Time!" Pineapple seemed to have thought of something.
"Yes," the Taoist priest nodded, "it seems that time is the most important thing in this world."
"So after entering here, our time has also changed." Maple Sugar suddenly realized.
As soon as he finished speaking, a bell rang in the distance, and the distant bells came regularly.
"It's almost dawn."
The three of them tacitly turned around and rushed down the rooftop, following the route drawn by Maple Sugar and running towards the bell tower.
"Will Xiaolan be there?" Pineapple asked worriedly as he ran.
No one knows the answer.
Pineapple looked at the two people who were obviously deep in thought, and became even more anxious.
"Put Xiaolan aside in advance," the Taoist priest said, still staring straight ahead, "I'm thinking, what does time mean to Gao Mingya's world? How can he create such a large world with a clock as the center?
...Time is likely to be the clue to solving the problem."
Clues hidden in time.
I wonder if Xiaolan can discover this quickly.
Before dawn, the last night, the last evil story.
Both the storyteller and the people in the story are in a hurry at the end of the day.
Don't know what I am doing or what I want to do.
Just do it.
Xiaolan's fingers seemed to suddenly touch something strange.
The first ray of sunlight from the sky shines on the running people.
