I heard what Qianmu Niangniang said, sighed and shook her head and said: "It's impossible. You helped me. I am indeed very grateful to you, but this is not love. I have someone I like."
I didn't expect that when the Thousand-Eyed Lady heard what I said, she immediately dug her eyes out, and then dug out her glasses one by one. She was in my arms at the time. To be honest, the scene was quite shocking. No, it was quite scary. She was very fast. In just ten seconds, she dug out all the eyes on her face. After digging them out, she was going to dig out the eyes in other places. I saw that the part below her waist had completely disappeared, and her face was full of blood holes.
"That's enough," I yelled, "You're almost dead, stop torturing yourself."
"You definitely don't believe in love at first sight. Before I saw you, you didn't believe that I really liked you either." The Thousand Eyes Queen had no eyes on her face at that time. She gritted her teeth and said to me. It seems that she would still feel pain even if these eyes were dug out.
"I used to think it didn't matter whether you were a human or a ghost, as long as you loved each other. But now I understand that it's impossible for a human and a ghost to be together, and you can't love me either," said the Thousand Eyes Lady, with an indescribable sadness in her voice.
I felt really bad looking at the Qianmu Lady like this, but if I like her, I like her, and if I don't like her, I don't like her. I really don't have any feelings for her, and it's impossible for me to be like the stud protagonist in a TV show who says he loves a woman as soon as he sees her confession of love.
Not long after Empress Qianmu said this, she completely disappeared in front of me.
"What is Xiaojiu thinking about?" Li Shigao walked up to me, patted my shoulder vigorously and said, "Don't think too much. She will die sooner or later. It's better for her to die now than to hurt more people in the future."
Li Shigao's slap brought me back to my senses. I looked around and realized that now was not the time to lose my mind. There was still Meng Yi and the old man from Taiping Dao who hadn't been dealt with yet. I didn't know where these two guys were hiding.
"Xiaojiu, take a rest first, we'll go find them later." Li Shigao said and sat down under the table. I also walked to Li Shigao and sat down with my back to back with him. This was mainly to prevent Meng Yi and his men from attacking from behind. After I sat down, I took out the talisman and put it in my right pocket. I had thought about it and when I saw Meng Yi later, I would directly use the 'Nine Star Divine Talisman' to attack him. The beasts of the underworld could blow their heads apart. Now there would be no problem in injuring Meng Yi. After all, although my General Sword is powerful now, do I dare to fight Meng Yi in close combat? Fighting Meng Yi in close combat is simply courting death.
After resting for about ten minutes, I felt that the place where Meng Yi kicked my chest was much better. It didn't hurt as much as before. I stood up and moved around. Li Shigao also stood up and looked at me and said, "Just now when I was resting, I thought about it. We should act separately. You explore the room on the left and I will explore the rooms on the right one by one."
When I heard Li Shigao's so-called method, I said, "No, you know I can't beat Meng Yi."
Li Shigao smiled and said, "You think too highly of Meng Yi and that old man, or you underestimate your own strength. If you stab Meng Yi with the Jiang Chen Sword, he will probably feel pain for several days, not to mention that Meng Yi and that old man are both injured now."
I nodded after hearing what Li Shigao said. To be honest, I really underestimated my current ability. Or I always put myself in a weak position. I always feel that others are stronger than me. In fact, they are just floating here. If I stab him, he will definitely feel hurt.
Li Shigao thought for a moment and continued to comfort her: "If you run into them, just scream and run outside. Even though you can't beat them, it's no problem for you to escape."
"Can't we search together? Isn't it safer this way?" I asked doubtfully. This is also my biggest question. Why did Li Shigao suddenly want to act separately? Li Shigao looked at me with a serious expression and said, "I didn't expect what you said Meng Yi and the old man were doing in hiding. They didn't want to fight with us before because they were afraid of hurting their vitality. This means that what they are going to do in Mangrove Village is about to begin. Otherwise, they can just kill us and then rest to recover. Although I don't know what they are doing, it must not be a good thing. Okay, I won't say more. Just be careful."
After Li Shigao finished speaking, he put on his backpack and walked towards the house on the right. I sighed as I saw him. Holding the Jiang Chen Sword in my hand, I walked to the house on the left. The house on the left was slightly smaller. It was dark inside and had a living room and bedroom. The furniture was similar to those in ordinary villages, but most of them were broken. I checked everywhere and didn't see Meng Yi. Then I carefully retreated and checked the second item.
This mangrove village is a circle, almost the same shape as a chocolate circle. The empty space in the middle is the Yinshu Gouhun. I searched room by room, but there was no one there. When I checked the seventh room, there was a sudden bang in the distance. I was startled and ran out of the room. I looked outside. Li Shigao, Meng Yi, and the old man from Taipingdao were confronting each other not far from Yinshu Gouhun. At this time, Li Shigao was also covering his left hand as if he was injured, and Meng Yi and the old man were not much better. The old man's clothes were tattered and he looked like a beggar. Meng Yi was better, but his clothes were also torn.
I hurriedly ran towards Li Shigao. At this time, we were only about thirty meters away from the Yin Tree. The Yin Tree was more than ten meters tall and looked very huge. The trunk was as thick as three people could hug. There were many wind chimes and red cloth strips hanging on it. There were also many bowls on the ground. These bowls were both large and small. The big one was at the bottom and the smaller one was on top of the big bowl. It seemed like something was covering it. There were more than thirty such large and small bowls in total. There was also a red bowl closest to the tree that was particularly conspicuous.
"Old Li, you are so good that you can find us even when we are hiding in the basement." Meng Yi looked breathless and seemed very angry at this time: "I told you two better not force me or no one will end well."
