Screaming Cycle (Infinite Flow) - Chapter 299
Hearing what Ren Jianmo said, everyone’s eyes suddenly lit up, showing a surprised and happy expression.
The Second Young Master of Dong’s family has been chased and killed by the Holy Court Army these days.
If you can really open the former imperial tomb of Lishan and get tens of thousands of zombie soldiers, but now it’s not halfway through the journey, and there are at least five or six days ahead of him. Dong Jing really doesn’t want to continue with the group of Xiyi. The cavalry entangled endlessly.
So at this time, I heard that the red-haired woman in front of me had a way to help them get rid of the chasing soldiers of the Holy Court.
“Are you serious?”
He leaped forward, grabbed the girl’s skinny palm, ignored the language gap, raised his voice, and asked:
“Really? Can you really help us avoid those people?!”
Irina blinked her big bright blue eyes, and stared at the young man in front of him who was wearing culottes and braided double braids, but he spoke with a drake voice. Somehow, she was blessed to the soul and guessed it. The meaning of the other party’s series of questions.
The girl nodded slowly and slowly:
“Yes, Ican.”
Next, Jelena showed off the power of the witch bloodline inherited from her mother in front of everyone.
“Is there anything like a map or a sand table?”
The red-haired girl asked Ji Lu and the others.
“The more detailed the better, so that the result of the divination will be more accurate.”
Uncle Zhong carried the map on his body, quickly took it out, and laid it out in front of Elena.
Ji Shu also leaned forward curiously to take a look.
Unlike modern maps that are marked with contours and scales and are accurate to centimeters, the maps of this era are still very rough. The general trends of mountains and rivers are outlined with ink on cowhide rolls, as well as some major villages and cities along the way. It’s just the location.
However, Ji Tuan seemed to be confused, but other “indigenous people” seemed to take it for granted. Even Elena nodded and said that it was all right.
Then the girl asked for a round, spherical metal object.
“Anything is ok, but it must be all metal, and it needs a fulcrum that can be fixed with a wire.”
She stretched out a finger and made a “shaking” motion.
“You mean, like a pendulum?”
Ji Yu summed it up, guessing that there should have been a mechanical clock driven by a clockwork in Western Europe during this period. It is not surprising that a girl has seen a pendulum.
“right!”
The red-haired girl nodded vigorously, “That’s it!”
Ji Xiaoniao didn’t have any suitable small objects on hand, so he relayed Jelena’s request to Dong’s master and servant.
“Oh, a metal ring.”
Without saying a word, Dong Jing put a gold ring on his left index finger and handed it over, “Can this work?”
Jelena nodded and said yes.
She pulled out two slightly curly red hairs from her head, tied them carefully to the ring, and made the golden ring into a pendant.
Then the girl grabbed the ends of her hair and hung the ring on the map like a pendulum.
It’s completely different from the movies about witches or wizards that Ji Tuan has ever seen. When Jelena performs divination, she doesn’t need to light sage or other incense, and she doesn’t need to be in a small place. In the dark room, draw complex magic circles or hold strange rituals.
In broad daylight and in the sky, the red-haired girl just sat on the ground with her knees bent, holding a ring in one hand, and began her divination.
Irina has an injury on her shoulder, even if she just keeps one hand in the air, it will be very hard, but at this time, she seems to have entered a mysterious and indescribable realm, beautiful blue eye pupil focal length When I was empty, I sang a song with weird grammar and a long rhythm. At the same time, the hand holding the pendant was surprisingly firm, not even a trace of swaying.
The pendant moved slowly on the map.
The small golden ring adorned with red hair remained in a drooping state under uniform force, which was very stable.
It wasn’t until it suddenly reached directly above a certain point that it suddenly began to shake like a pendulum on the hour.
The ballads humming by Jelena have not stopped.
The pendulum is still moving forward along the direction of the ink mountains and rivers.
The magic is that when it left a certain point, the sharp swing immediately stopped and returned to a quiet dangling state.
After that, the process of shaking the pendant was repeated twice.
When Jelena finished singing the third time, she put down her arms and let out a long sigh of relief.
“found it.”
The girl has a bloodless face, a thin layer of sweat on her forehead, her lips are white and blue, and her voice is so soft that she can even describe it as “wisdom”. She sets off a face that is already too thin without any special effects. Putting on makeup can COS the ghost of the castle.
But her eyes are still very bright.
And even though the smile on his lips was feeble, it was filled with relief.
“Here, here, and here.”
Jelena stretched out her hand and tapped her fingertips three times on the map.
Ji Yu remembered that these three points were the places where the pendant had swayed above just now.
“Tomorrow at six o’clock in the morning, twelve o’clock noon and nine o’clock in the evening, the Paladin team responsible for hunting you down will appear in these three places.”
Ren Jianmo conveyed the meaning of the red-haired girl to the rest of the team.
“Holy thief!”
When Zhuzi looked at the map, he immediately shook in a cold sweat and came down.
“This, this is the way we are walking now!”
He raised his hand and wiped his forehead with his sleeve:
“This… if we continue to go this way, we will definitely have to let them catch up again!”
Ji Yuan would like to ask Elena, how confident are you with the results of your divination?
Just when he was digging through the vocabulary library in his memory, trying to figure out how to word it, Ren Jianmo had already looked at the red-haired girl again and used his ability to get the answer he wanted.
“Ilena said that her divination was always accurate.”
Ren Jian silently said:
“Unless another more powerful wizard changes her fortune-telling results, tomorrow’s paladin team will definitely appear in these three places at the time she said.”
“Understood.”
Ji Yuan smiled brilliantly, saying that we really had a good heart, and thought of going together:
“Then, we just need to avoid chasing soldiers and choose another way.”
Dong’s master and servant also felt the same way.
So they stopped delaying, and immediately got together. After careful study, they chose another country road separated by a whole mountain from the route that the Paladin pursued.
“If we want to go south, we have to climb over this hill before dark.”
Zhuzi is the one who is most familiar with the terrain in this area, “So we better stop delaying and leave now.”
Ji Lu and Ren Jianmo naturally had no opinion.
The group hurriedly packed their luggage and set off.
Before leaving, Dong Jing glanced at Ilena and saw that she was holding half of a bun in one hand, with a look of reluctance to let go, while the other hand was still holding her own gold ring.
“Humph!”
He let out a low snort of disdain from his nostrils, and pointed his finger at the bun and ring in the girl’s hand.
“I gave you both of those things.”
Anyway, he is the second young master of Dong’s family, and he doesn’t need a few stutters, let alone a gold ring, so that he won’t have to worry about borrowing it tomorrow when he calculates.
Jelena blinked, then suddenly grinned.
She devoured two bites and finished the bread. When she was carried by the zombie mercenary, she carefully and preciously put the gold ring on her left index finger.
This is the first and only gift that a girl has received since her birth.
&&&&&&&&&
Because of the temporary adjustment of the route, the group had to end their lunch break hastily and began to rush.
They walked from noon to Higashiyama, then bypassed this mountain and continued along the opposite gorge.
Everyone walked for six hours at a rapid marching speed, not to mention that it was Elina, who was already badly wounded and frail. After four hours, even the second youngest of Dong’s family was a little bit too much.
Fortunately, they brought a lot of zombies.
So the two “sisters” in the team, one true and one fake, all lay on the backs of the zombies as if they had no bones, and were driven on their backs by tireless hard work.
Six living people and twelve living corpses cleared a clearing in a forest in the canyon, preparing to camp overnight.
Elena picked a blade of grass on the spot, rolled it into a small whistle, and blew it on her lips.
The whistle sound was like Ye Xiao’s sorrow, and it was not abrupt in the wild at night.
Soon, Ji Yu felt a rustling sound from the treetops above his head.
He quickly raised his head and met a few pairs of Huang Youyou, round and bright eyes.
Ji Xiaoniao frightened the spirit, so he swished a few arrows at the stuff on the tree without turning into “solitude” on the spot.
Fortunately, Jelena explained in time that this was the owl she had summoned, and they were on guard at night, which was more reliable than humans.
Ji Tuan let go of his tight nerves.
However, even though there are dense forests and night owls, they still dare not start a fire rashly and have to continue to eat dry food to satisfy their hunger.
After Ji Xiaoniao has a storage ring, there are more things that can be loaded from “Peach Blossom Spring”.
Before leaving, Bing Hao had reminded him that he must bring enough food to go to those war-torn “worlds”, so Ji Tuan stuffed enough dry food for two people to eat ten and a half months in the space ring. With drinking water.
——As for why they are two people, of course it is because the virtuous classmate Ji Xiaoniao also counts his family’s role as a beauty.
As a result, this preparedness came in handy at this time.
When a few people were sitting in the camp, Ji Shu took out a hot dog with sausages from the portable space, turned it over again, and took out a small bottle of mustard sauce, squeezed it all over the hot dog, and then casually Passed it to Ren Jianmo.
