Chapter 121: Encountering an Acquaintance
Chapter 121
-------
Those green unknown liquids are the essence of the tree.
Jun Yi half-knocked his eyes and sat beside the bonfire. The gentle firelight outlined the hem of his skirt and dyed it with a layer of gold.
A few thoughts flickered in her eyes, then faded away and became silent.
The essence of the tree will resonate with the tree itself when ordinary people drink it, but Jun Yi will be fine if he drinks it. Chen Qirong and Wei Ming have her spiritual power and can purify those things, so drinking it will have no effect.
Something is indeed wrong here. The spiritual magnetic field has changed somewhat, forming a small world isolated from the outside world.
It's freezing cold winter outside, but inside it's a paradise that feels like spring all year round.
Last night, the moment Jun Yi saw Mei Lin, he knew they wouldn't be able to get out for a while.
That Merlin is very weird. The layout inside contains some Qimen Dunjia formations. If you force yourself to go out, you will only be able to walk around in circles like a ghost beating a wall.
So she proposed to stay in Merlin for one night. Only when the enemy appeared would she know what she was facing.
The result surprised Jun Yi. These people did not seem to have any ill intentions. On the contrary, they were very enthusiastic towards outsiders like them.
"Welcome to our new family!!! You are the lucky ones favored by the 'Mountain God'!!" The young man wearing a feather crown raised the inferior earthen bowl with a bright smile on his face.
His skin is a bit dark, and when he smiles, he shows a row of white teeth, and there seems to be a ray of sunshine between his eyebrows. Seeing him smile can clear away the gloom.
No one will think bad things about him.
"My name is Luosang, the leader here! I'm honored to have you join me!!" Luosang handed the earthen bowl to Jun Yi. The light of the bonfire reflected in Luosang's eyes, dancing and shining.
Jun Yi took the earthen bowl, which contained milky white rice wine, exuding a faint fragrance.
Jun Yi glanced at it but didn't drink.
Since Anlong Village, Junyi has never drank water from a stranger.
Not even wine.
Of course, the ‘goddess’ essence is a last resort.
Jun Yi raised his eyes and looked around. Chen Qirong and Wei Ming were being pulled to dance by the enthusiastic people. They looked at Jun Yi uncomfortably from time to time and did not take a single sip of the fruit drinks handed to them by the locals.
Jun Yi observed these people carefully. They were very different from the survivors who had experienced hardships in the outside world.
People outside have long been numb, with only despair and exhaustion in their expressions. But they are filled with laughter, and the air is full of joy.
They danced around the fire, and their sonorous and powerful heartbeats told Jun Yi that they were living people, and the happy scene in front of them was all real...
"This beautiful girl, don't be wary of us like this." Luosang sat down next to Jun Yi, with a smile in his eyes.
Jun Yi's eyes shifted to Luosang, and after thinking for a while, he still didn't speak.
Jun Yi always spoke sincerely, so it would be a bit difficult for her to make social greetings and say a few words for the occasion.
"What's the girl's name?" Luo Sang was not annoyed when he saw Jun Yi didn't speak, and the smile on his face did not diminish.
"Jun Yi."
"Jun Yi, this is a good name. The person who named you must want you to be as cool as a gentleman."
No, it's not.
Jun Yi suddenly thought of the origin of his name, his eyebrows lowered, and a touch of loneliness flashed across his eyes.
You are flying in the clearing world, and your talents are flying in the sky.
Her name is not her own...
"Your name is Luosang?" Jun Yi asked, "What does your name mean? I've never heard of it."
Seeing Jun Yi speak, Luosang's eyes turned into crescent moons when he smiled.
He is a man like the sun, full of steam, and you can feel his heat even if you just met him.
"I am from XZ. Lausanne means kindness and justice. My mother hopes that I will be a good person, which is equivalent to what you Han people call a gentleman."
"It's a very good name." Jun Yi said, "Your mother must love you very much."
Luosang's mother must be a very warm person.
Jun Yi thought.
"Let's go dance together, Miss Junyi, this is your welcome party."
Luosang bent down slightly and stretched out a hand to Jun Yi. He tilted his head slightly, and the feather crown on his head swayed slightly with the movement.
Jun Yi's eyes moved, and his glass-like eyes made people dare not look directly into them: "No."
Her voice was light, obviously without any ups and downs, but it made people feel alienated and indifferent for no reason.
Luosang was stunned for a moment, but was not affected by Jun Yi's indifference. Instead, he bowed slightly and returned to the bonfire.
Jun Yi was left sitting there alone, like a cold jade frozen in the Tianshan Mountains for thousands of years.
Jun Yi put down the bowl in his hand, looked up at the illusory night sky, and closed his eyes again.
There is always the same frequency blowing in my ears, the breeze blows once every half an hour, and the fragrance passes through my nose, making me feel relaxed and happy.
How wonderful it all is, the beautiful moon, the charming night and the warm and warm campfire.
Unfortunately, they are all fake...
Jun Yi opened his eyes, looked at the unreal face, and sighed almost inaudibly.
She stayed here without destroying this small world, not because she had nothing to do or because she couldn't get out.
It was because Duan Mulong was not in her sight, and Jun Yi didn't understand the situation here, so he didn't dare to act rashly for a while.
Jun Yi didn't want to take action when he wasn't completely sure.
It was because of her ignorance and naivety in Anlong Village that she almost killed Wu Gu and was in a coma for a whole month.
It was because of her incompetence that the research center was unable to control the overall situation, killed her companions, and caused an explosion...
Duanmulong's body still has some sense of spiritual power from Junyi, which means that Duanmulong is not dead and is at least safe now.
It's just that the magnetic field of this small world is unstable, and Jun Yi can't judge Duanmulong's position at all.
Jun Yi must understand the situation here before he can take action.
The environment here is all fake in the small world, but the people... are all real.
She doesn't want anyone to die now...

Chen Qirong was pulled to dance by a little girl with braided braids. Wei Ming was introverted, showing her discomfort from top to bottom extending to her hair.
Although the people here were enthusiastic, they found that Wei Ming didn't like them talking around him, so he kept a distance in a considerate way and went to talk to Chen Qirong instead.
"You are from outside? How is the world outside now? Is there still a base?"
"Evil spirits are rampant outside, but we are the only one in Longji Mountain who is safe now, thanks to the blessing of the mountain god."
"Drink. Are you being wary of us? It's okay. People who just come here are like this. You will feel relieved after two days."
The people here seem to have noticed a few people's defensiveness a long time ago and don't care. Instead, they firmly believe that they will live here with peace of mind in a few days.
But Chen Qirong heard other information in his words: "Who else came here later?"
Lingling giggled and pointed to a young man next to her: "His name is Luo Yihong. He is from outside before. He has been here for several months. I heard from him that he comes from some base."
Chen Qirong looked in the direction pointed by Lingling's finger. There was a man sitting there, with neat short hair, a strong figure, and sharp eyes and handsome eyebrows.
He was holding a small dagger in his hand and playing with it casually on his nails. There was a woman sitting next to him, chatting as usual, with a relaxed posture and she would say a few words from time to time.
The moment he saw the man, Chen Qirong's head buzzed, and something exploded.
"When he first came here, he was yelling about hallucinations... fake... and so on. Now he can live here peacefully. He is amazing and very strong!!"
Lingling was still saying something in Chen Qirong's ear. Chen Qirong could no longer hear Lingling's voice. He looked at the man's facial features. As a visual mutant, he once again doubted his own eyes.
Perhaps Chen Qirong's gaze was too naked, so Luo Yihong felt something and raised his head and looked over.
The moment their eyes met, Chen Qirong knew.
I didn't recognize the wrong person.
He is actually here!!!
