When Does This World Have a Blood Bar Displayed? Chapter 144

  Chapter 144 Penglai Island's Arrow Through Time and Space

   "Would you like something to eat, Kikyo? Just take part in the festival a little bit?"

While    took a bite of the roasted corn in his hand, Gu Mo handed it over with the other hand and asked vaguely.

The witch    glanced at him, but she didn't refuse. Instead, she gently stretched out her hand to take the roasted corn in his hand, then looked at it a little, and opened her mouth slightly to take a small bite of the corn.

   "How do you feel?" Gu Mo blinked and asked seriously.

   "Very good..." Kikyo said softly.

"That's good... Do you want to eat anything else?" Gu Mo looked at the long stall in front of him. The steaming aroma of various snacks and delicacies wafted from afar, although it was the first one. He has participated in fireworks festivals for the first time, but in his view, similar festivals around the world are interconnected.

  The special snacks at the festival are also a major focus. Eating while shopping is the most correct way to participate in the festival, which is called a full sense of immersion.

"……It will be all right."

   Miko nodded lightly.

She originally wanted to refuse habitually, but after thinking about it, she still didn't want to lose interest at this time, or because of the festival, she was somewhat infected by the festive atmosphere, not so much anymore. It was cold and clear, but with the breath and heat of some human fireworks.

  The two of them walked slowly along the road like other tourists, as if they were the least conspicuous part of the crowd participating in the local festival.

Under the more thorough influence of the illusion, no one will be able to disturb them this time, as if in the eyes of everyone, the two of them don't exist... Even if they come head-to-head, let them subconsciously. No matter how empty the road is, when doing such a thing, people seem to be unaware that they are avoiding.

  The night gradually became richer.

The atmosphere of the    festival gradually became warmer, and finally came to the climax of the fireworks display.

Large and small fireworks rise up, reflecting more dazzling light and shadow on the quiet river. The roar of fireworks echoes between the distant mountains and the city here for a long time, and the night seems to be turned into During the day, the fireworks bloomed brilliantly, illuminating the night sky, and expelled the night that was so thick that it was like insoluble ink.

  The scene is very spectacular.

The blooming of fireworks also pushed the atmosphere of the festival to a climax, but the sound of fireworks was roaring incessantly, even faintly deafening, but instead it brought out the quietness of the conference... At the moment when the fireworks bloomed, Many people stopped and stopped talking.

  People quietly looked up at the night sky, the gorgeous fireworks that rose one after another and then bloomed. While the fireworks were noisy, the scene was completely quiet.

I don't know how many fireworks blasted into the sky, illuminating the night gorgeously, illuminating it brilliantly, as if it was a dreamy picturesque scenery, dazzling... Even Gu Mo, a modern person, is also dazzling. Feeling unusually spectacular, the witch is naturally even more shocked.

   She watched quietly, a strange look in her eyes.

  The fireworks are fleeting, but each time the cooldown passes, more fireworks rise into the sky, and the roaring sound is constantly heard from the front, and it continues for several minutes without ending. In addition to the festival scene that has become quiet, almost everyone no longer walks, but maintains the same posture and watches quietly...

Unconsciously--

   seems like time has stood still.

   As if the infinite beauty of this moment will last forever.

If that's the case... Maybe it's not bad... Relieving the inexplicably divergent thoughts in her heart, the witch sighed slightly, and looked beside her subconsciously, and found that the other party was also looking up quietly, her eyes calm. Don't know what to think.

   seems to have sensed Kikyo's gaze, and the young man looked slightly sideways in her direction.

The witch gently looked away, not touching his gaze, and looked up at the direction of the sky again. The fireworks were still in full bloom, and the whole night sky was lit up gorgeously. The blooming of fireworks is like a dream.

"How does it feel?"

   A gentle voice came from the side.

   A brief silence.

Under the brilliant lighting of the fireworks, I can see that the expression on the witch's face softened, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing a beautiful smile, as if the ice and snow melted, the clouds opened up the snow, and the voice was also very soft and soft, she Turning to look at him again.

   "It's beautiful..."

  Gu Mo blinked and raised the camera in his hand: "Want to take a picture?"

   pursed his lips lightly, the witch obviously hesitated a little, but seeing this, Gu Mo directly raised the camera with a chuckle, and pressed the shutter to completely freeze the scene. Kikyo actually hesitated because of this kind of thing, which is rare.

   But since he is hesitating seriously, rather than expressing resistance directly, these are enough.

   still turned her face away unnaturally. The witch was about to say something, but she was stunned for a moment. Usually, when she looks like this, she senses something.

"What's wrong?"

In the deafening sound of fireworks, Gu Mo asked, what did he feel at that moment? The spiritual power that was restrained and suppressed quickly spread out, and without a shadow, he had swept across the entire ceremony site, and continued It spreads farther and farther in all directions, but nothing is found.

  There are no monsters coming, and since the last experience, the Miko has been blocking the existence of the Four Soul Jade.

As for the strange feeling just now, he didn't know what was going on. He vaguely felt that something attractive appeared in a certain direction, but his mind stretched over there, and he has been exhausting the limit, and he has not been able to find out. what's going on.

The    source did not disappear, but it seemed to exist far, far away.

   "Penglai Island...appeared."

   Kikyo stared at him and said calmly.

"Penglai Island..." Gu Mo raised his eyebrows, as if he had just talked about this not long ago, and now it has happened so coincidentally... But with 50 years as a cycle, it just happened to be over now. For five hundred years, one year is not less than one year, so it seems reasonable that this year is just the turn.

   It's just that Kikyo didn't seem to be like a big dog who was scratched on the back by the four fighting gods——

That is not only a wound, but also a book of life and death. It seems that whenever Penglai Island reappears at the right time, the wound left by the Four Fighting Gods will reappear... This is also a signal, so there is no such thing as exact If there is a signal, how did Kikyo directly determine that it was Penglai Island? Because of that strange feeling just now?

   "That is the wave of the rumbling cauldron..."

   uttered the word softly, the shrine maiden frowned and stared at him with a slightly strange gaze.

"Penglai Island is the island of the gods in ancient times. It should be the spiritual land left by the ancient immortals. It is said that the rumbling cauldron was also a long time ago. The alchemy furnace left by the ancient alchemists was based on the leylines of the entire island. It is also the source of spiritual power on the island..."

"As long as it exists in the world, the fluctuation can be detected from a long distance, although it will only appear for a short time, just like Penglai Island, it will disappear after a night, but over time, it will also disappear. It really attracted a lot of people or monsters with ulterior motives..."

   She has been to Penglai Island before, so she naturally understands the reason for the strange fluctuation just now.

  It must be that the island's enchantment has ushered in a periodic weakening of once every fifty years, allowing Penglai Island to reappear in the world of Jambu, and the power fluctuations of the rumbling cauldron are emitted...

   Ordinary people can't sense anything strange, but from the perspective of people with extraordinary power, it's not the same thing... Well, even monsters should be able to sense it.

   "Don't look at me like that, I've never been to Penglai Island before..."

Gu Mo stretched out his hand and scratched his cheek. He could read the meaning of Kikyo's strange eyes, but he really didn't know this. Although he knew the existence of Penglai Island, he also understood the setting of its periodic disappearance. Sure, and what happened on the island...

   But that's all there is to it.

Kikyo nodded lightly, but didn't care too much. There were not a few ambitious people chasing the power and mysteries of Penglai Island. In that era, there were no less people than those who chased the Jade of the Four Souls, but those who were not interested were sure. Yes, it is normal not to know about it.

   It's like the big dog also knows the existence of the Four Soul Jade, but he dismisses it like that.

   Miko also subconsciously thought that this person might be like that too.

   "Want to go over and take a look?"

   Gu Mo asked, although he knew the answer was yes.

Kikyo watched the fireworks in the sky gradually dissipate, and until now, this grand fireworks show has finally come to an end. There is no longer the sound of fireworks, and the splendid dream-like ending makes people feel more in their hearts. A hint of melancholy.

   "Well, let's go..."

This can be regarded as a knot in her heart. The problem that was not solved at the beginning is now just a chance. After all, I have to take a look again... Maybe it is too late, but at least look at the incident back then, How did it end in the end.

   Thinking of this, the Miko couldn't help sighing in her heart.

When she left the island, she once thought about this matter. She wondered if she would have another chance to solve the monsters on the island. After all, Penglai Island will only appear once every 50 years. Immortality is not the case in the outside world.

   What the shrine maiden didn't expect was that not only did she not wait for fifty years, she even came back from the island in the same year...

   she died.

   Not long.

   "Although it takes fifty years as a cycle, according to common sense, Penglai Island will appear directly after nightfall..."

   Riding on the dead soul worm, his long hair was blown by the night wind at sea, and the soft words of Kikyo rang in the wind.

  Because it's almost midnight now, the power fluctuation of the rumbling cauldron suddenly appeared, which means that the enchantment disappeared at that time...

"Maybe there is no one on the island anymore, only the enchantment set up by itself is running spontaneously according to the previous cycle, no one maintains and adjusts it, it naturally deviates over the years, this should be Is it normal too?"

   Gu Mo said, he is not the pure and cute new one he used to be, he doesn't know anything anymore.

There may still be some half-assed, but half-assed is better than completely ignorant. He has also mastered some basic mysterious knowledge, especially enchantment is also a subject he has recently chosen as an elective, plus it is still thanks to the old immortal. The inheritance of the high house and the building, I have never eaten pork and have seen the pig run, so there are some guesses.

   "Probably so..."

  The witch lowered her eyes and lowered her eyebrows, her tone a little unbearable.

   "It's just that, if that's the case, those kids on the island might be..."

   paused, she didn't say any more, just sighed softly. Penglai Island was invaded by four great monsters known as the Four Fighting Gods, who ruthlessly ruled and slaughtered the island's residents, but in the end, in the battle with the guardian priestess of the island, they ended up with the result of burning jade and stone——

  The shrine maiden named Zoji took the power of the Four Fighters directly by herself, and then fell into the cauldron and died.

The Four Dou Gods are also destined to die because of this, so they went crazy and threw the surviving children on the island into the cauldron, imitating the ancient immortals to refine precious medicines, refining those children and extracting the essence to barely maintain themselves. The existence of , will not disappear directly because the source is taken away...

Five hundred years have passed now, if the problem has not been solved, I am afraid that the four madmen have burned out the surviving residents of the island, and they have finally perished in madness because they have no way to recover. ...

"This is not necessarily. Maybe five hundred years ago, this matter has been solved. What we see now is only Penglai Island in this era. As for how it ended before, we don't know. "..." Gu Mo was more optimistic about this.

   During the Warring States Period, Penglai Island will definitely appear again, and the protagonist group will definitely settle the account with the four fighting gods on the island.

Even if Ergouzi didn't go, the big dog who was conspiring against him would definitely not be able to swallow this breath, so he doesn't need to worry too much... It's this matter that he and Kikyo probably won't catch up, because although it's hard to determine what happened to Penglai Island Which stage of the plot takes place between the main plots, but it can be roughly deduced.

  Because it was the first time Inuyasha used the combination of "King Kong Explosion" when he eliminated the Four Fighters.

And now, Ergouzi has just come into contact with "Wind Injury", and "Blast Break" is still a long way off, not to mention "King Kong Spear Break". As for the combination of the two moves... I feel really It was a long time ago, and Gu Mo felt that he would definitely not be able to catch up.

   Now he has stayed in this dungeon for more than a month. Although he is not in a hurry, he really can't stay there forever. The day of his return is approaching.

   couldn't help but glanced at the witch beside him, under the night wind blowing, Gu Mo put his hand on his chin and thought seriously.

   Ride the dead soul bug across the sea and fly in the darkness of the night...

This scene is actually very artistic, but Gu Mo is a little dazed to find that he doesn't know when he started, and his heart doesn't seem to have any turbulence because of this kind of thing, just like the faint smell of medicine around him, after getting used to it. Just like the air, it is often not intentional to pay attention.

The first time to master the spell, the first time to fly into the sky, the first time to get out of the shackles of gravity... In fact, it is very exciting and exciting, but it is only limited to the first experience and feeling, and these changes are probably It is also implying that his body and mind are transforming unconsciously.

   "It's just ahead..."

   Kikyo's voice sounded, interrupting Gu Mo's thoughts.

He looked forward, narrowed his eyes and stared at the oncoming sea breeze. Under the deep dark night ahead, there was a thick and chaotic mist on the sea level, and the thick gray fog filled the sea. It can't be torn apart, and the sea breeze can't be blown away. The sky is connected to the sea, and the sea is connected to the sky.

   In the thick fog, there is a huge black shadow vaguely, which seems to be the silhouette of an island, completely shrouded in fog.

   A legendary island that only appears once every 50 years...

"The demonic energy is so heavy..." He frowned, even though his perception was not as sharp as the witch's spiritual sense, but after awakening the "heart eyes", it was much stronger than before, not to mention the demonic energy emanating from the island It is undisguised, huge and complex.

   "A lot of little monsters, it should be that this island has long been deserted, even if they appear every 50 years, many monsters can seize the opportunity to burrow in and build their nests..."

  The shrine maiden nodded, she also noticed this, but although the demonic energy was extremely strong and thick, it was the result of stacking up by "quantity", and it was not a powerful demon.

   While speaking, the dead soul worm slowly flew into the mist and approached the island.

  The island is not small, most of the area is covered by dense forest vegetation, only the coastline is relatively desolate and is a clean beach.

The two got down on the beach and looked at the surrounding environment. It was just the first time they arrived, and there were already many bloodthirsty guys moving in the wind. In the forest not far from the coast, there was a strange roaring sound, followed by The trees shuddered, as if something were ramming out.

Then--

   With an extremely gorgeous holy light, the Demon Breaking Arrow roared and flew into the forest.

Because the layers of trees blocked the line of sight, and I don't know how many monsters evaporated easily with this blow, but the movement in that direction stopped abruptly, and the monsters were also cleared, and suddenly faded a bit, And the rest is still dissipating...

The air seemed to be suffocated. The dense sense of voyeurism and the swarming malice suddenly receded like the tide receding. The originally quiet island was even more terrifyingly silent at this moment, and there was no more. any sound.

  The ferocious monsters who wanted to hear the wind were probably all huddled in their own nests, trembling and anxious, hoping that this long night would pass as soon as possible...

   "Let's go and take a look at the center of the island."

   Miko lowered her long bow and said calmly.

Gu Mo opened his mouth, this scene is really a bit of a sense of disobedience, how do you feel that those monsters are like the villagers who could only wait for the dawn helplessly before, but he is just taking advantage of the darkness to attack the village and let him The former trembling murderous enemy...

   He shook his head, condensed his thoughts and followed.

But before he could go far, Kikyo stopped, leaned over slightly and stretched out his hand from the beach beside his feet, and then pulled out something buried in the sand... It was an arrow, it seemed to be an arrow. Deeply inserted into it, it was only when she sensed it that she saw the light of day again.

  The body of the arrow is intact, and the tail feathers are not peeled off. It seems that it has not been ravaged by the years...

   "This...isn't Kikyo your arrow?"

   Gu Mo looked a little curiously, and asked casually.

"right……"

   The witch nodded lightly, her tone a bit strange: "These are those arrows I made with Mikami before... This mark is exactly the same."

   She drew an arrow from the quiver and compared it carefully.
