Chapter 259: The Second Life
Ji Liao raised his head to look at the void, only to see that at this time, criss-crossing white lines appeared in the void, dividing the entire sky into countless squares, and in the squares, complex spiritual patterns lit up one after another.
The sound of clicking was endless, and the clear blue sky became three-dimensional at this moment, and it was divided into countless square pillars that fell from the sky, as if some mechanism had been activated.
Ji Liao stared at the changes in the void, and his heart was surging like a river and a sea.
He whispered, "What kind of formation is this?"
Ji Liao remembered everything before he activated the formation, and immediately understood that he was in the formation in his current situation.
He retracted his gaze and looked at the house where Murong Xue and her mother lived, but saw that the people inside were in a mess, shouting and crying inside, and some even walked quickly past him, all of them didn't seem to notice that the void was changing dramatically.
Ji Liao's eyes looked at Murong Xue, who was already exhausted with blood on his face, his eyes first showed a touch of fear, then turned into a touch of fierceness, and finally there was a touch of unspeakable warmth.
For a while, all the memories of Li Yaozu from birth to the present poured into his mind, everything was so real, as if Ji Liao had really experienced Li Yaozu's life, so that Ji Liao couldn't tell whether it was illusory or reality.
"What kind of weird formation is this, how could I meet that woman in the formation?" Ji Liao's eyes flashed wildly, and he whispered in his mouth.
"Master, master, what can I do about this, Madame has been..." At this time, a maid dressed in a subordinate costume stepped forward, and cried with tears in her eyes.
"Put Madame..."
Ji Liao nodded habitually at first, and just wanted to say something but stopped abruptly.
The light in his eyes suddenly turned cold, and he glanced up and down at this maid, this maid she knew, it was Murong Xue who came to the Li family, and she had been following Murong Xue's personal maid.
"Xiaoyu, do you know what formation I am in now?" Ji Liao asked in a cold and tentative tone.
"What?formation?what formation?" Xiao Yu was stunned by Ji Liao's question, and asked in surprise with her big eyes full of tears.
"You don't know?" asked Ji Liao who took a step forward and almost stuck with Xiao Yu.
Ji Liao was already very tall, and Xiao Yu was a head shorter than Ji Liao, seeing Ji Liao's face gloomy and scary, when he looked down at himself, Xiao Yu suddenly shuddered with fright.
"Master, the slave really doesn't know. Xiao Yu's face turned pale, and he took a few steps back and bowed and said.
"Hmm!" Ji Liao nodded, and then Xiao Yu continued to look up at the void.
The clicking sound continued, and the sky was now enveloped in a faint white light, and countless pillars fell and then rose again, as if something was activated.
"How can this be?" Ji Liao muttered as he looked at the void.
Suddenly, there was another loud bang, a white light in the sky
It collapsed with a loud bang.
Then a whirlpool suddenly appeared in the sky, frantically stirring everything in the heavens and the earth.
For a moment, the whole world trembled, and the clear blue sky was like a curtain, twisting and rolling and being swallowed up by the whirlpool.
"Bang bang bang. ”
There was a muffled sound, but it was all the people in the Li family's mansion that exploded.
There was no blood splattered, no flesh and blood flying, but everyone exploded and turned into a cloud of ashes and was swept into the air.
Ji Liao's eyes looked at Murong Xue lying on the ground, only to hear a bang, and Murong Xue's body also turned into ashes and disappeared.
Heaven and earth rolled upside down into the sky, and in an instant, the sky collapsed and the earth cracked.
Ji Liao's eyes flashed coldly, and his mind was quickly thinking about how to break the formation, and suddenly he felt a sharp pain in his body, as if there were two strong men, pulling the rope and pulling his body to the death.
Ji Liao retracted his thoughts and looked at his body.
saw that the hideous cracks on his feet were spreading rapidly towards his upper body.
"Is it me? It's really painful!" Ji Liao smiled bitterly, and then the crack spread straight to the top of his head, splitting him in half, and after a while, he heard a bang, and his body was also swept into the air with ashes.
At the moment when Ji Liao disappeared, the whirlpool in the void stagnated, and then with a trembling sound, it instantly retracted into the void and disappeared.
......
......
A light rain was falling in the sky, and a thatched hut with a bamboo forest against its back had its windows open.
This place is very remote, almost on the edge of Tired Spring City.
The thatched hut is not big, only two small rooms, and the clear raindrops hit the roof, sliding down the thatch, dripping to the ground, splashing a little water.
In front of the house is a small courtyard, surrounded by a fence surrounded by half-human high emerald bamboos, and the vegetables grown in the small courtyard have been drilled out of the soil and sprouted inches long, showing a sense of peace and tranquility.
In the open window there was a young man, this young man was honest-looking, tall, eighteen or nineteen years old, dressed as a weak scholar.
This young man's name is Yi Huaqi, but he is a down-and-out scholar whose parents died and is alone in Tired Spring City.
Yi Huaqi was holding a scroll in his hand, his mind was completely immersed in the scroll, and the sound of light rain from the outside world couldn't disturb him at all.
After a long time, Yi Huaqi put away the scroll in his hand, exhaled a long breath, and looked at the deserted street caused by the rain, and a smile rose on the corner of his mouth.
"The spring rain stirs the hearts of the travelers, and the blue and white willows do not miss their relatives. ”
He muttered a word, then shook his head with a wry smile and looked at the scroll in his hand again.
It was getting dark, and the thatched hut was lit by faint candlelight.
The wax head was very short and turned into a mess of wax mud, but Yi Huaqi was still reluctant to throw it away.
He is a poor scholar who has no power to tie the chicken, and usually only relies on writing letters for others to earn a few copper plates, in the bustling Tired Spring City, this meager income is only enough for him to maintain his usual livelihood and ensure that he will not starve to death, and the rest is nothing else.
"Hua Qi, Hua Qi. Then a shout rang out outside his courtyard.
Yi Huaqi looked out of the window, and through the dim moonlight, he could vaguely see a young man with an oil-paper umbrella and a scholarly robe, waving his name at the gate of his courtyard.
A smile appeared on Yi Huaqi's honest face, although he didn't see it very really, but Yi Huaqi also knew that this was one of his few friends in Tired Spring City, Wang Muye!
"Kiya, come in. Yi Huaqi shouted out the window.
"What are you doing in there, come out quickly, there is something good to find you today." Wang Mu didn't enter the house, but urged outside the door.
"What are you doing?" Yi Huaqi asked again.
"Hurry up, there's something good anyway!"
"Hey..." Yi Huaqi shook his head, smiled bitterly and put down the scroll in his hand.
Wang Muye's family background is okay, but fortunately, his parents are still alive, and they have done some small business in the city, barely able to maintain a normal livelihood, at least in the eyes of Yi Huaqi, who is poor and white.
Yi Huaqi blew out the candles, walked to the hut, picked up the oil-paper umbrella, pushed the door and walked out.
Tired Spring City is a city with continuous spring rain, and the oil-paper umbrella is a necessary living tool for all people living in Tired Spring City.
Opening the courtyard door, Yi Huaqi and Wang Mu were also standing together, and he asked with a smile, "What's wrong?"
"Hey, I didn't tell you in the academy last time, today is the day when Miss Yuerong of Baifeng Lou comes out to meet guests... Wang Mu also glanced at Yi Huaqi complainingly.
"I thought it was the matter, you had to go yourself. As soon as Yi Huaqi heard this, he suddenly lost interest in this matter, and immediately turned around and was about to go back.
"Eh, what is this for, I told you, the Yuerong girl is a performer and not a person, today the Yuerong girl sees someone for the first time, there will be a question, if anyone can answer, they can go upstairs and meet the Yuerong girl alone, not cashier. ”
"Then I won't go, I see that I am about to enter Beijing to catch the exam, you might as well go by yourself for this kind of thing. ”
Yi Huaqi was unmoved by Wang Muye's words, and was still reluctant to go.
"If you don't go today, you can't do it, you are the best Wencai of my Nanhu Academy, if you are robbed of the top spot by Saigon Academy this time, our Nanhu Academy will have no face, and then we will be ridiculed by those things in Saigon Academy." ”
Wang Mu also spoke, and then couldn't help but pull Yi Huaqi and run towards Baifeng Tower.
"Eh, slow down, slow down, I can't go... Yi Huaqi was pulled by Wang Mu and shouted.
The figures of the two gradually disappeared into the drizzly street, and only Yi Huaqi's voice echoed faintly.
