Chapter 306 Connector
The light of the torches swayed and changed, and the shadows of the surrounding trees danced with it, like monsters.
The team was moving fast, and apart from the sound of footsteps, the only thing they could hear was their own heartbeats.
The scarecrow is leading the way, walking in front.
It is very fast, and sometimes it has to stop and wait for the people behind to catch up.
As for why he only accepted the invitation from the 'Witch of the North', Luo Xi did not tell anyone else. This was in line with his usual personality and behavior.
Zhang Zhe guessed that the reason why Luo Xi accepted the invitation from the ‘Witch of the North’ was very simple. Because the name of the Witch of the North is the second name on the door panel.
In the plot of the original Wizard of Oz, there are four witches. They are Theodora, the Witch of the West, Evanora, the Witch of the East, Glinda, the Witch of the South, and Addaperle, the Witch of the North
The name Addaperle is the second name on the door panel besides Cinderella.
The information on the door panel is like a "plot line" that is exclusive to a certain special environment. In this case, no matter who it is, they should proceed according to this plot line. This is only in line with common sense.
If there may be a 'own person' in Node 7, then this own person is most likely Addaperle, the Witch of the North.
At this time, some strange noises came from the dark forest.
Like a wolf howling.
Sounds like a lot.
"There is a witch driving the wolves. This is not good news." The scarecrow who led the way said, then speeded up and arrived under a big tree, tearing open a piece of weeds to reveal the entrance to a tree hole below.
"There is a safe passage here that can avoid the surveillance of other witches." The Scarecrow said and got in.
The entrance to the tree hole is not small, and even a crazy lion can enter it. After entering, you will find that the underground passage connected to the tree hole is relatively wider, so walking through it is not a problem.
The only problem is, there are side roads, and lots of them.
These forked roads were complicated, and when Zhang Zhe and the others realized something was wrong, they discovered that the Scarecrow and Luo Xi who were leading the way suddenly disappeared after entering another forked road.
"Where are the people!"
Zhang Zhe was stunned, and immediately sped up to chase after him. After encountering the next fork, he immediately arranged for his men to enter separately, but he stated in advance that if he could find someone after entering, he would lead them back to the previous fork. .
Return it even if you can't find it.
And he stayed where he was with the others.
The crazy lion here didn't listen to him. When the strong man discovered that Luo Xi was missing in front of him, he immediately pursued him. As a result, the strong man also got lost.
The situation suddenly became extremely complicated.
Cinderella was acting very well-behaved and silent at the moment. Obviously, finding people and exploring paths was not something she was good at.
After waiting for a while, Zhang Zhe found that no one who went to the three forks came back.
Zhang Zhe's face was uncertain, and no one knew what he was thinking at this moment.
A forest hunter next to him looked around and whispered: "These passages seem to be changing all the time. This is a trap, a maze trap set by a witch."
Hearing this, Zhang Zhe nodded, and then punched the rock on the side hard. Even the hard rock could not stop his destructive power, which had been enhanced to Elite B level. A large piece of rock shattered. Rubble fell to the ground.
Then something strange happened.
The shattered rocks rumbled and were slowly absorbed by the soil in the surrounding passages, as if they had never appeared before.
Apparently, there's something wrong with the underpass itself.
"There's something very wrong here. Let's go back the way we came." Zhang Zhe had a strange expression on his face, as if the current situation was beyond his expectation.
Luo Xi still followed the scarecrow in front.
He didn't seem surprised that the people behind him disappeared at some point.
It stands to reason that at this time, his 'character' will definitely fall into unknown fear, but the actual situation is exactly the opposite. Relatively speaking, the scarecrow leading the way feels some kind of uneasiness, and it is confused by the people following behind. Where did he go? What's even more strange is why Luo Xi didn't show any surprise after finding out that the others were missing.
Except, it felt that the way Luo Xi looked at it was not right.
There was a coldness in the joking.
I always feel like this person has seen through his true nature.
Finally, the scarecrow stopped.
It looked back at 'Luo Xi' behind it.
Suddenly, it discovered a very serious problem.
"Hidden magic power fluctuations, how can he have magic power on his body?" The scarecrow was extremely surprised and couldn't help but muttered: "Something's wrong!"
"Have you been discovered?" Luo Xi behind him seemed to realize something and said helplessly.
The scarecrow was stunned for a long time, and then suddenly said: "You are not Luo Xi, who are you?"
'Luo Xi' shook his head: "Answer me first. You could tell from the beginning that the 'Witch of the North' sent you. Why did you change so many bodies before you told me the correct name of the witch? You are very Do you like being burned? Or is it just to lower my guard? ”
"." The scarecrow was stunned again. It thought for a while and suddenly said: "Can you feel the soul?"
"It's not perception, it's seeing. From the first burned scarecrow to the current one, there are a total of thirty-eight scarecrows. The appearance is different, but the result is that the soul inside is the same. Do you think I can't tell? To be honest, I really don’t know what you mean, but I’m sure you guys have bad intentions.” Luo Xi sneered: “Besides, you haven’t answered my question yet.”
The scarecrow said nothing and turned around and ran away the next moment.
"[Cage]!" 'Luo Xi's' voice sounded, and the next moment, several light bars appeared, trapping the Scarecrow and 'Luo Xi's body. This time, no one could leave.
This is a two-way [cage] that lasts far longer than an ordinary [cage] card. Basically, it will always exist as long as you don't lift it. "I have observed that the soul in the scarecrow will only escape after being burned, so as long as your body is not burned, you can only be trapped in this place with me. We actually have a lot of time to chat. To be honest , you are delaying time, which suits me well.”
"Who are you?" Scarecrow was already a little angry.
It's just that the scarecrow's body is not suitable for fighting. Once trapped, it is impossible to break free.
"Guess!" 'Luo Xi' chuckled, obviously not telling the truth.
But on the surface she was very relaxed, but in fact, she was quite uneasy inside.
The effect of [Makeup Artist] cannot last forever and will automatically expire after a while.
As for the [Ghost Beating the Wall] she secretly used just now, it lasts even shorter.
It sounds like there is a lot of time, but in reality it is not.
[Makeup artist] can completely change your appearance into a different person within six hours - you have to believe that a good makeup artist can give you a makeover!
The current 'Luo Xi' is pretended by Lin Qiqi.
Luo Xi suddenly found her in the Bell Tower Church before, saying that her plans had changed, and gave her a [Makeup Artist] to look like herself, let her pretend to be herself, and told her some precautions.
Lin Qiqi would not refuse Luo Xi's request, no matter how outrageous or embarrassing it was for her.
But she was curious about what was going on.
So, she asked Luo Xi two questions at that time.
"What happened? I pretended to be you, so where are you going?"
"I went to meet someone first, and then went to Node 7. As for the first question, some people thought they could deceive me, and they thought they succeeded, but in fact I just used the trick!"
"You sound more like a joke!"
hours ago.
After Luo Xi found Lin Qiqi and told him some key details, he asked Lin Qiqi, who had used [Makeup Artist], to leave in Zhang Zhe's carriage.
Luo Xi himself used the shadow moon cloth clothes on his body and the moonlight to come to Elena's flower shop.
What’s interesting is that Elena, the witch spy Luo Xi calls, seems to be waiting for him too.
In the secret little room at the back, Elena said nothing, staring straight at Luo Xi.
He seemed to be waiting for the other party to speak.
"Sorry, there was an accident." After Luo Xi finished speaking, he placed a parchment roll on the table.
This is the identity certificate that Elena gave him and the Crazy Lion before.
After Luo Xi entered the administrator's building and obtained [Teacher Yan], he took out the parchment and looked at it, and discovered a very important secret.
The sheepskin roll is made of two pieces of sheepskin sewn together. If you touch the seams with your hands, you will find that there are many stitches, which feel messy and not neat.
That's because these pins form a series of Morse code.
Unless you are an expert in this field, or someone who has frequent contact with it, you won't be able to find out anything even if you try to touch it deliberately.
Elena reached out and took the sheepskin roll over, staring at Luo Xi, still saying nothing, and groping around with her fingers inside. After confirming that Luo Xi had sewn the correct 'password' inside, she spoke.
"Sure enough, after amnesia, the whole person has become dull. If it were before, you would have noticed it when I gave you the parchment, but this time, you have been delayed for so long"
There was dissatisfaction in his tone.
Very angry look.
"Besides, you didn't see the problem with the tavern owner." Elena couldn't help but snorted again.
"I can see this, but I really don't remember who he is. I only know that he has problems, but he does know a lot of my secrets. I have always been puzzled about this matter, so I used the trick to see if I can pull it off. Get something out.”
"Oh, tell me first, when did you realize there was something wrong with him?"
"When I didn't see him, I knew there was something wrong. That door was too fake"
"Understood, they created a fake 'door', which should contain a lot of information that only you know, but they still don't know you well enough, because you never record the key information. What they did is completely self-defeating. ”
"Who are they?"
"I don't know. He suddenly appeared one day. I guess he was one of Wei Si's minions. I haven't seen him before. Of course, he might have been one of your people and later rebelled."
"." Luo Xi was stunned and glanced at Elena.
"Oh, don't look at me with that expression. It's not like things like this have never happened in the past, but you are also very cautious and never really trust others, including me. To be honest, I don't even I don’t want you to come back, because I am very satisfied with my current life. But I can’t help it, who made me agree to you in the first place.”
"So, what did you promise me?"
"Wait for you to come, and then ask you a question, but remember, you don't answer the question. I am just passing on the question itself. I don't know anything about other things, and I don't want to know. After asking you where you like to go, Please don’t bother me again.”
"You ask." Luo Xi suddenly felt that Elena, the witch, was very interesting.
Elena cleared her throat and said word by word: "Have you brought Teacher Yan out?"
"What?" Luo Xi was stunned.
"Don't ask me, I don't know anything. 'Did you bring Teacher Yan out?' This is the question you asked me to ask you. Now that I've finished asking, you can leave. Remember, you didn't come. I don’t know you when I pass here. Please let me have a peaceful life for a few days.”
