Chapter 1214 They Are Not the Same Group
As time goes by, the sky outside has gradually changed.
What was originally bright sunshine gradually turned into the afterglow of the setting sun. The shadows of the trees were gradually lengthened, and the wind began to blow. The wind swayed the branches and became larger.
The swaying branches and leaves were coated with a golden color, and the whole courtyard seemed to be a little more alive.
However, there was still no sound.
Not only was there no human voice, everyone had noticed that there was no movement of other living creatures in the courtyard.
Logically speaking, this place is deep in the mountains, and it is normal for there to be some chirping of insects and birds around. However, during the few hours of waiting, they did not hear anything else except the sound of wind. sound.
This is obviously not normal.
However, their current situation was inherently abnormal, and no one expressed any objection to this.
After waiting for too long, everyone became a little bored, and everyone went to do something to pass the time.
Some gathered together in twos and threes and chatted, while others meditated on the spot and began to adjust their breath.
Fortunately, the interior of this phaseless mirror is spacious enough, so no one will get in the way of anyone else's business.
When the light outside gradually dims, around the phaseless mirror, you can already see brighter and brighter lights. This light will sway with the wind, and it is obviously the candles around it.
However, even if the light outside becomes darker and darker, around these people, the inside of the phaseless mirror remains the same as before, as if there has been no change in time.
Lin Mengjia and Tang Feng were sitting under the stone wall slightly inside, smiling and whispering.
Even if others had strong ears and could hear what they were saying, no one dared to pay attention. They could only hear one or two of Lin Mengjia's happy laughter occasionally.
Lin Mengjia's smile made everyone feel at ease.
After all, the fact that she was able to do this proved that Tang Feng was confident that the situation in front of him was nothing to worry about.
Ji Ning and Shangguan both sat cross-legged and meditated, following the formulas taught to them by Tang Feng to regulate the air passages in their bodies.
Although they have been on the road these days and have little time to practice, they have not slacked off. Once they have the opportunity, they will seize the time.
Next to the stone wall that turned into a mirror, Zixuan was also sitting cross-legged. However, she was not meditating. Instead, she was holding her chin with one hand and putting the other on her leg, drawing something in the air aimlessly. , looking a little absent-minded.
Xue Rui sat across from Zixuan. Seeing that Zixuan seemed to have something on her mind, she didn't disturb her. He just sat there quietly, his eyes falling on Zixuan.
If it were any other girl, she would have been distracted by Xue Rui's peach-blossom eyes.
But Zixuan was Zixuan, and she didn't take it to heart at all. It seemed that she didn't notice it at all and was only thinking about her own things.
Xue Panpan saw Xue Rui's behavior in her eyes. As a sister, of course she cared very much about her younger brother. Seeing him in such a condition, she was a little worried, but it was difficult to say it in front of everyone, so she could only say something to her from time to time. Xue Rui glanced in the direction, with worry in his eyes.
Xie Laohu has experienced a lot of storms and waves, and he also has the ability to judge people. Of course, this kind of thing will not escape his eyes, but like Xue Panpan, he cannot talk about it in front of so many people. , and could only comfort Xue Panpan tacitly with his eyes.
The most leisurely among them all were Rong Guocheng and Li Jianming. The two of them also meditated for a while at first. After adjusting their breaths for a while, they thought about things outside, then stood up again, and walked toward them from time to time. He looked in the direction of the room, fearing that something would happen if he didn't notice it for a while.
When the sky outside turned completely dark and became quieter, everyone suddenly heard the sound of footsteps.
This lifted everyone's spirits.
They had been waiting for too long, and their spirits were a little slack. The sound of footsteps was like a shot of cardiotonic injection, causing everyone's eyes to focus in the direction of the room.
The footsteps were very rapid, and it could be heard that it was not one person, but at least three or four.
Just when everyone gathered in front of the "big screen" and waited to see who it was, the footsteps stopped.
These people did not come in, but stood outside together.
From the perspective of these people, the visitors are not visible at all.
However, even though it cannot be seen, the sound can be heard clearly.
A man who sounded like a middle-aged man, with a hint of urgency, obviously lowered his voice and said: "The entire valley and pool have been searched, and there is no trace at all. Could it be that it disappeared out of thin air?"
Another man who sounded about the same age as him and had a slightly sharp voice said: "I have long said that this road should be closed. Some mountain people don't look normal. They may be colluding with that monster. The sect master just doesn't believe it." , Now that something like this happened, if he really fell to death or drowned, that would be fine, but now there is no one alive or dead body, which is really disturbing. "
A slightly older male voice said: "Now that things have happened, it is useless to talk about it. It is better to send people to search carefully. Maybe the water flow is too fast and the people may be washed away."
"Basically all the manpower that can be sent has gone. We have been here for so many years and are very familiar with the terrain and the speed and direction of the water. It only takes half a day. Where can people rush to? This matter , has something to do with that monster, he must have taken that person away." The slightly sharp voice said again.
Urgency and nervousness could be heard in his voice.
Everyone exchanged glances with each other.
From these few words, they could tell that these people were looking for someone.
"They are looking for Zhao Xiaoshan." Rong Guocheng lowered his voice.
Although he knew that no one outside the phaseless mirror could hear his words, he still couldn't help but whisper.
The others also nodded in unison.
Before, they all thought that Zhao Xiaoshan bringing them here was the beginning of this trap, and they had colluded.
But now listening to the meaning of these three men's words, they are not the same as Zhao Xiaoshan who is looking for him.
Not only that, they may still be hostile.
