The town was filled with the aroma of food. At sunset, every family made a fire to cook. The fragrance made Li Yi saliva flow, and he grabbed Gu Lei's hand tightened: "It smells so fragrant... I'm almost starving to death!"
"You know how to eat!" Gu Lei always maintained a virtuous image in front of others. He didn't speak when Li Yi spoke, but once he was alone with Li Yi, it was completely different, "You know how to eat, you know how to eat!"
As he said that, his little hand pulled out of Li Yi's hand and wanted to twist it around Li Yi's waist, but found that the Tuzhikai on Li Yi's upper body was really something that his little hand could not shake, so he shifted the target and pinched Li Yi's thigh.
Screams resounded throughout the entire Imperial Town.
Li Yi howled, but suddenly felt a chill rising from his back, and he couldn't help but squint his eyes, and there seemed to be some eyes staring at him around him. This feeling was really unpleasant.
"Gu Lei..." Li Yi said calmly, smiling as usual, "There is something!"
Li Yi closed his eyes, his mental power spread rapidly, and he could see everything within a radius of dozens of miles. After his lyricism reached the fourth level, the scope of the spiritual world also expanded a lot. Not only that, but even his mental power became more solid.
Let me put it this way, if Li Yi's original mental power was just a blue-black fog, then Li Yi's mental power is now a large pool of blue-black liquid, which has been greatly improved in essence.
The thick liquid mental power filled the large space centered on Li Yi. Li Yi, who entered the spiritual world, saw the light shining around him, and various spiritual ripples were shaking beside him.
In addition to the dim ripples of the townspeople, Li Yi saw that there were five individuals with the strongest ripples around him. Apart from him and Gu Lei, three individuals with strong mental power were around them.
But this does not mean that these three people are peeking at me.
Strong mental power, generally speaking, does not mean that high strength will make people stronger. Some powerful warriors' mental power is even worse than a primary contractor. The strength of mental power can only show that this person has a relatively high level of spiritual attainment.
Li Yi used his mental power to sweep towards these three individuals with strong mental power, but found that the distance between them was relatively scattered, forming a triangle vaguely, each standing on a corner, and himself was at the center of the triangle.
Did they really face us? Li Yi thought for a while, but was not sure. After all, he was in the center of the town. Although they formed a siege, he just happened to be in this position.
What do these guys want to do?
Li Yi closed his eyes and was stunned for a moment, then opened his eyes, and looked at Gu Lei with a normal expression: "It's okay, maybe I'm fussing... Let's see the situation first!"
Gu Lei's face was a little pale, and she whispered to Li Yi: "Just...I discovered a powerful fluctuation of light energy..."
Li Yi nodded. One of the three individuals with strong mental power was light. It was not just these three mysterious characters who alerted him, but their spiritual ripples were too single, all of which were solid colors. This was very similar to the elves he encountered!
Are there still elves on the southwest border? Li Yi thought so and took Gu Lei's hand to the store door that he learned from the aunt.
The door of this hotel is half open, and the lights are brightly lit inside. A faint smell of food wafts out. Li Yi's stomach couldn't help but scream: "I'm starving to death!"
He pulled Gu Lei, who was still pale, into the hotel. Before the waiter came forward to receive the reception, Li Yi shouted loudly: "Boss! Eat, accommodation, etc.! Are there any more?"
"Please take care of it!" The owner of the hotel was a middle-aged man with a meticulous expression. He had a thin body and long temples. He nodded to Li Yi and the others, and then continued to bury his head and fiddle with his abacus.
There was already a table of people sitting in the store, four young and strong men sitting at the table, eating and chewing. Li Yi didn't look at him when he came in. It seemed that even if the earthquake occurred, they would not let go of the food in front of them.
Li Yi glanced at it and was shocked. These four people looked powerful and looked like they were taken out of the same mold. Even their eating habits were almost exactly the same, just like Li Yi.
What shocked Li Yi was not their appearance, nor was it their appearance. What really surprised Li Yi was the weapons stuck on the ground beside them.
The four wide-blade giant axes were stationed down on the ground. From the degree of depression on the ground, you can see how amazing the weight of these four giant axes are. At first glance, the four giant axes are all made of metal, and even the axe handles that are always made of wood are made of metal!
These four people are amazingly powerful!
Li Yi glanced at the four strong men who were eating and drinking in a squinted manner, pulled Gu Lei to sit on the table next to him, ordered some wine and food, and the signature "corn cake" in the town, and quietly said nothing.
Gu Lei also saw something abnormal, and her eyes kept blinking at Li Yi, but she didn't dare to speak.
Li Yi thought about it and knew what Gu Lei wanted. He smiled and closed his eyes - he was about to communicate with Gu Lei in spiritual terms.
Of course, it is only one-sided. Gu Lei’s current level of chanting is really too low, and he can’t even reach the point of cutting out his mental power, so there is no need to say that he uses any verbal knowledge.
Li Yi cut off a little mental power with his mind again. This time he was familiar with the path. After all, he had done it once. If he couldn't do it well, wouldn't he be stupid? However, the pain of the mind cutting the mental power made him dazed for a moment, and soon came back to his senses. He showed some fatigue in his eyes, and looked at Gu Lei and said, "Close your eyes."
Gu Lei closed her eyes obediently, and her little face was flushed and she didn't know what she was thinking.
Li Yi closed his eyes again and threw the little mental power he had cut out towards Gu Lei.
After touching the mental ripples around Gu Lei's body, the small piece of mental power quickly became larger and thinner, forming a rune the size of a palm, which was tightly attached to Gu Lei's eyes. At the same time, the mental ripples around Gu Lei's body also changed.
A blue and black light ball turned around Gu Lei's golden and red ripples.
Hey, is this the so-called spiritual imprint? Li Yi curiously touched the small blue and black light ball with his mental tentacles, and suddenly a feeling of blood being thicker than water came from the light ball.
Why don’t I have it? Li Yi looked at himself strangely, and there was nothing beside his body except his own mental ripples, and there was no spiritual imprint on his body. There was no sign of the black spirit at all.
"What are you talking about?" Gu Lei suddenly asked.
The four strong men stopped eating and drinking, turned to look at the two of them.
Li Yi opened his eyes and said with a constant expression: "Nothing, nothing..."
He knew that the word of wisdom had already played a role and brought what he wanted to say to Gu Lei in his heart. However, Gu Lei had never been exposed to such a thing, nor did he expect that Li Yi could speak in his heart.
"Gu Lei, listen, don't speak!" Li Yi said in his heart.
Gu Lei was shocked and opened her eyes to look at Li Yi. Seeing that the other party nodded to him, he felt relieved.
"Now I'm talking in your heart, don't panic, don't show anything on your face, just keep your original expression!" Li Yi continued to say in his heart, "I know you're very curious. This way of speaking in people's hearts is called 'knowing words'..."
Immediately afterwards, Li Yi explained that when he heard that he had to reach the fourth level of chanting if he wanted to use "knowing words", Gu Lei couldn't help but show a disappointed expression on his face.
How could Li Yi guess Gu Lei’s thoughts? He would never have thought about what Gu Lei’s thoughts were.
In this way, wouldn’t he be able to harass me anytime and anywhere?! This is Gu Lei’s real idea.
"These four people are definitely weird..." Li Yi continued to say in his heart, "Don't look back, I'll just tell you... At this time, no one will come to the town to buy food. The harvest season has passed. There is only one kind of exchange except for the ones like us who are traveling..."
"Bandit Group... Look at their appearance, they don't look like people going out for fun. And they are all powerful. Everyone has scars on their bodies. In addition to soldiers, people with so many scars on Xinqin are either robbers or bandits. Even if they are not interested in this town and are just passing by to eat and drink, we should still be careful..."
"What's more,..." Li Yi suddenly laughed and looked out the door, "Those three guys with strong mental power have also come..."
As soon as Li Yi finished speaking, three figures wrapped in long robes appeared at the entrance of the hotel.
"Here..." Li Yi said to Gu Lei in his heart, "Keep calm and let me investigate them..."
Gu Lei nodded, but still seemed a little panicked. Fortunately, the food they ordered came at this time, so Gu Lei had to use food to hide his curious vision.
For a moment, the situation on the table was very different from usual. Gu Lei ate the most, while Li Yi seemed extremely reserved, eating small bites like a lady.
The three of them entered the store, and the waiter quickly came forward to greet him - this is a rare business. In this season, there are not many people willing to come to the town to implement it. Hunters who go to the mountains often sleep in the open air. If you stay in the town, you really don’t want to spend this money in vain.
This is a big gap from the harvest season when the town is full of merchants.
But today it was surprising. Six customers came to stay in the hotel, and three more came now. This is the biggest business in the season.
But soon, the waiter found that his hot face was pressed against his cold butt. The three people coming in from behind were not here to stay in a hotel or eat, but...
"Everyone has nothing to do with it! We are here to find the Si brothers!" said the man standing in the middle, with a hint of majesty in his voice.
The waiter was stunned for a moment, turned around and looked back. The store could be called brothers, and only the four looked exactly as young and strong.
Just as he turned his head and wanted to say something, the man who was talking became impatient and pushed the waiter away. A golden light flashed in his hand, and the waiter flew out with a "bang"!
Light-based spells... Li Yi narrowed his eyes and looked at the four strong men again. He had no idea when he put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, stood up, holding the axe handles one by one, and looked at the three robe men coldly.
"What's the matter with us brothers?" the four of them said together, their voices were thick and loud, and the four of them spoke at the same time as one person, without any deviation.
Unexpectedly, the man who spoke ignored the Si brothers and looked at Li Yi instead, and said again: "No one has anything to do with it, hurry up and go out, otherwise... don't blame us if you will hurt your life!"
Li Yi held a smile on his lips, nodded, looked at the table of wine and food in front of him with regret, stood up with Gu Lei's hand, and slowly walked out the door.
Gu Lei wanted to say something, but was scared back by the look that Li Yi glanced at him.
When did this fat man have such sharp eyes? Gu Lei thought in horror. After so many days of unconsciousness, Li Yi became sometimes almost unable to recognize him!
Li Yi took Gu Lei's little hand, walked slowly to the three of them, and said softly: "Contractor? Or..."
"Elf?" A strange smile appeared on the corner of Li Yi's mouth, and he pulled Gu Lei to him, pushed her hard, and pushed her out of the door. At the same time, he quickly made a spell casting gesture in his hand, and spells blessed Gu Lei's body.
"Let's go!" Li Yi shouted. He blessed all the spells on Gu Lei, but he didn't have a single spell on his body, because he knew that even if he blessed himself, it would be useless.
The ones I faced were seven elves!
Although these Si brothers were all big and round, and had no elves at all, Li Yi had already confirmed something from the spiritual world - they were actually dark elves!
The spiritual ripples displayed in the spiritual world will not go wrong. They truly reflect the properties of all living things, and even objects with energy can show such ripples. What Li Yi saw in the spiritual world was the pure black ripples that continued to spread out of the four strong men!
No human spiritual ripples can be so pure, without even a trace of impurities! Moreover, judging from the brightness and vibration amplitude of the ripples this time, these four guys who look like warriors are actually contract masters!
Li Yi knew that as an elf, the proportion of contractors is naturally very high.
The new three guys in robes have not weak mental ripples at all, and these three people are the three ambushes that Li Yi just discovered in the center of the town!
The Light Clan, Fire Clan, Wind Clan, and Li Yi silently said in his heart that these three elves are the most good at attacking races. Even if he has a high level of lyricism, he will be unable to resist the attacks launched by these three elves at the same time. What's more, there is Gu Lei - Gu Lei who can use the light and fire contract techniques. It happens that among these three elves are the Light Clan and Fire Clan, who are born to restrain the same attribute contract techniques. Gu Lei can only be regarded as a living target here!
Li Yi knew that he could go out as if nothing had happened, but why didn’t he get involved in this kind of good show? What’s more, why did the elves that had been repelled appear on the land in the southwest again? Could it be that they have infiltrated again?
