Xiao Chen appeared beside Tasia in a flash. She was kneeling on the deck of the speedboat, holding the rudder. The speedboat had been thrown into the air by a huge wave, tilting its hull. If it fell again, it could capsize in the sea at any time.
How could this happen? Everything was apparently normal, so why did the meditation space undergo such a change
"Let go!" Xiao Chen shouted loudly while flying. But Tasia clung to the horizontal bar of the turntable and refused to let go.
Xiao Chen's mind moved, and the rudder suddenly turned into a pool of sea water. Tasya's arms were holding empty space, her body lost support, and she fell out of the boat. She screamed in fear.
At this time, Xiao Chen appeared beside her and hugged her body. The two of them drew an arc in the air and finally landed on the beach.
Xiao Chen put Tasia on the ground, but she hugged Xiao Chen tightly, trembling all over, and refused to let go.
Xiao Chen patted her back gently and comforted her: "It's okay, it's okay. We are on the beach."
"I'm sorry." Tasia buried her face in Xiao Chen's shoulder. "I, I know you have something important to do outside, but, but I was too scared just now."
"You did the right thing. Fortunately, you called me here. Tell me, what happened?" Xiao Chen asked softly.
"Today, I was gathering spiritual energy on the boat as usual. But suddenly the weather around me changed. I didn't pay much attention to it at first, because it was usually cloudy outside and the waves were rolling. But slowly the waves got bigger and bigger, and the boat became more and more unstable. I realized something was wrong and was about to come back, but the huge waves had already rushed over, and then the boat was thrown into the sky. I shouted for help, and then you appeared.
"What happened? What happened to you? Although your external world has fluctuated before, it has never been so drastic. You must have encountered something extraordinary, right?"
"Does it happen normally?" Xiao Chen asked curiously, "Why have I never seen it before?"
"I guess as long as your emotions fluctuate violently outside, changes will occur inside. But when you come in, you are mostly in a meditative state, and your mind is very calm, so naturally you won't see such a scene."
"That makes sense." Xiao Chen looked at the sea in the distance. Since he came in, the sky and the waves have been gradually calming down. It seems that it won't be long before they return to their normal state.
"What just happened outside?"
"I was... I was at the New Year's parade and I was dancing in the crowd."
"With her?" Tasia keenly sensed something from Xiao Chen's tone.
"Yes." After responding, Xiao Chen felt that Tasia's hands seemed to be exerting force.
"What kind of person is she? I really want to meet her."
"Why? Why do you say that suddenly?"
"I didn't expect that dancing with her would move you so much. She must be very beautiful and attractive to you, right?" Tasia let go of Xiao Chen and lowered her head. "Thank you for saving me."
Xiao Chen laughed and said, "Don't be silly. How could there be such a big reaction to dancing? There must be something wrong."
"Could it be that you have been ambushed?" Tasia raised her head and said, "Although you seem to be conscious now, I remember that some drugs or magic can make people feel uneasy. In this case, people will become impulsive and easily make misjudgments, or affect the success rate of spellcasting. Come on, go out and look around you."
"My other distraction was outside, there were people dancing around me, nothing was out of the ordinary. Wait... something seemed wrong."
In the outside world, Xiao Chen found Luo Ling's face flushed and her expression was very excited. She was jumping faster and faster and giggling. A little...slightly drunk
He pulled her, stopped, and hid in a corner away from the crowd.
"What are you doing? Why aren't you dancing anymore?" Luo Ling shook her head and looked around.
"Wake up, wake up, do you feel that something is wrong with you?" Xiao Chen pressed her shoulders and shook her.
"Hey, what are you doing? I want to dance, you should dance too." Although Luo Ling was held by Xiao Chen, she still did not give up spinning. She twisted her shoulders and insisted on continuing to dance.
Xiao Chen had no choice but to cast a small mental shock to wake her up. Unexpectedly, just as he let go and prepared to cast a spell, Luo Ling put her hands on his shoulders and kissed him on the face: "Haha, I'll give you a kiss as a reward. Come and dance with me?"
Xiao Chen was both angry and amused. He prepared his magic and flicked Luo Ling's forehead with his middle finger. Luo Ling shuddered and the excitement in her eyes gradually faded away.
"Are we in trouble?" She put her hand on her forehead and closed her eyes to feel it.
"Yes. Not only us, but also the people around us are affected by a strange power. Everyone seems to be very excited. Look for yourself..." Xiao Chen pointed at the people passing by. Everyone, regardless of gender, age or status, seemed to have aroused their greatest energy and were dancing and laughing wantonly.
"And I just kissed you?"
Xiao Chen was stunned, pointed to his cheek and said, "Here, do you remember?"
"I'm not unconscious, it's just that everything seems like a dream, the images are not clear, and the impression is a little fuzzy." She snorted softly and said, "You're lucky."
"Hee, I don't know who took advantage of me yet?"
"Oh, did I take advantage of you? I'm so sorry. I will never do that again." Luo Ling said apologetically.
"I'm just a bad mouth, but you just pretend I didn't say anything." Xiao Chen was immediately defeated.
Luo Ling flicked Xiao Chen's forehead with her middle finger and said, "Stop talking nonsense and find out what's going on."
Xiao Chen released a spiritual detection magic and found that the souls around him were all stimulated in some way. The light balls representing spiritual power were trembling and twitching one by one.
However, not all light balls reacted in the same way. Some were relatively calm, while others were shaking so much that they were about to collapse.
Xiao Chen used his night vision to observe these people with different reactions. Sure enough, those whose light balls were relatively calm also had calmer expressions and movements. They could still control their behavior and had enough rationality, just like Xiao Chen just now.
Those whose light balls were the most turbulent were often jumping so hard that they were almost exhausted and fell down. Their expressions and movements had become instinctive reactions.
He told this conclusion to Luo Ling, who helped him observe for a while and said, "The problem is the headscarf. You see, those calm people often wear wreaths, or nothing at all. And those who are the most excited all wear headscarves!"
