Chapter 163: Circular Maze

Inside the maze.

Sakura looked at the maze that suddenly appeared in front of her in surprise.

After a pause of one or two seconds, she suddenly moved closer to Li Xiaolang and asked cautiously, "Um, this was still a shrine just now, right?"

"It's obvious."

Li Xiaolang nodded, appearing quite calm.

"Exit, exit..."

Knowing that she was not seeing things, Sakura hurriedly muttered something and tried to find an exit, but just as she took a step, Li Syaoran suddenly grabbed her arm.

"Wait, calm down first and feel this breath carefully."

"breath?"

Sakura was startled, then nodded obediently.

Close your eyes gently and feel quietly.

The mysterious aura grew stronger, and the next moment, the image of the Clow Cards appeared in his mind.

"It's the aura of the Clow Cards. As expected, what Xia said was right. It's really the Clow Cards!"

Sakura suddenly opened her eyes, pointed at the maze in front of her, and asked Li Syaoran: "Was this also done by the Clow Cards?"

Li Xiaolang lowered his head and pondered for a few seconds, then raised his head and replied seriously: "I'm afraid this is a puzzle card."

"fan?"

"That's right. The magic of the puzzle is to form a maze. This maze just fits the characteristics of the puzzle."

Li Syaoran recalled the information he had memorized and explained to Sakura that the Li family had the information left behind by Clow Reed, so he also had a certain understanding of the types of Clow Cards.

Now, following this maze and associating the characteristics of each Clow Card, he quickly found the name of this Clow Card in his memory.

"Didn't it change back?"

Sakura glanced at the unchanged maze and couldn't help but sigh, "It seems that this Clow Card is not a special card that loses its power when its name is spoken."

"Of course. The reason why special cards are called special cards is that they must be very rare. It is even possible that the Mirror Card is the only special card among all the Clow Cards." Hearing Sakura's slightly naive words, Li Syaoran couldn't help but say something.

But seeing Sakura's lost look, he still sighed and explained: "But there is a way to crack the maze. As long as we can find the exit of the maze, the magic of the maze can be invalidated."

"Really?" Sakura's eyes lit up. As long as there is a solution, that's good.

"But if we can't find it, the maze will not disappear and it will keep trapping us."

Faced with Sakura's excitement, Li Syaoran poured another bucket of cold water on her.

"It doesn't matter, as long as we can find the exit!"

Sakura said this quite optimistically, not doubting at all whether she could find an exit. Seeing Sakura like this, Li Syaoran was slightly stunned, but rarely did he discourage Sakura.

"By the way, Chise and the others have separated from us, they should be okay, right?"

After deciding to find the exit, Sakura noticed that she and Li were the only ones left at the scene.

Recalling her standing position at the beginning of the shrine, Sakura reacted quickly this time and understood why she was separated from the others.

"Don't worry."

Li Xiaolang shook his head and replied: "Since we are safe, then they must be fine too. The important thing now is to find the exit so that everyone can be saved."

"You're right!"

After agreeing with Li Syaoran, Sakura just stared at Li Syaoran, making Li Syaoran feel a little confused.

He looked down at himself, and when he didn't notice anything wrong, he asked in confusion, "Why are you looking at me?"

"Doesn't Mr. Li have a compass?"

Seeing that Li Xiaolang didn't seem to have thought of it, Xiaoying reminded him: "A compass can indicate the direction, right? I read about it in a book before."

"That's what you're talking about." Li Syaoran took out a compass from his schoolbag, handed it to Xiaoying, and explained, "There's no compass installed on it, so it can't indicate the direction. As for the function of finding the Clow Cards..."

As he spoke, a light blue light appeared in the center of the compass, but the next second, the light burst like a soap bubble.

"what?"

This strange scene made Sakura look at it in confusion. Li Syaoran said helplessly: "Because this maze itself is a Clow Card, the function of finding Clow Cards is useless."

"That's it."

Sakura was a little frustrated. She thought she had finally come up with a good idea.

"Have it!"

When Li Syaoran put away the compass, Sakura pondered for a few seconds and said excitedly again: "I have another good idea!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Sakura took out her bird head key and unsealed it into a magic wand.

"fly!"

In an instant, the wings on both sides of the bird-headed magic wand spread out and grew larger, causing a gust of wind and waves.

Sakura took advantage of the wind and flew up into the emerald green sky on top of her wand.

"I'll ride this to find the exit."

After waving to Li Syaoran, Sakura flew into the sky, trying to use her high field of vision to cheat and find the exit of the maze.

However, unexpectedly, before Sakura successfully flew out of the maze, the walls around her suddenly grew higher, blocking her view as she prepared to look into the distance.

Seeing this, Sakura unconvincedly increased her speed of flying upwards, but the speed at which the wall rose was even faster than her. In just a few seconds, the wall had grown above the sky, and it seemed that even the sky could not stop the wall from rising.

Looking at the seemingly endless wall, Sakura was dumbfounded.

Is the card puzzle so harsh?

Sakura, who failed in cheating, descended silently. It seemed that there was no way to find an exit from the sky.

Below, Li Syaoran watched Sakura fall down dejectedly and sighed slightly: "It seems that it is impossible to find it from the air."

"What a pity! It would be great if classmate Xia was here." Sakura sighed in disappointment as she fell back to the ground.

Hearing this, Li Xiaolang asked curiously, "Why is it that the guy is fine here? Does he have any other solution?"

"Mr. Xia has the magic of guiding the way, so he will definitely be able to find the exit smoothly."

……

At the same time, on Xia Yu's side.

"Damn it, why did it turn back again!"

Looking at the mark he had drawn when he left, Xia Yu fiercely threw the magic wand in his hand to the ground, and knelt on the ground in frustration.

Xia Yu: orz
After walking around in the direction of the magic wand for so long, he unexpectedly ended up back at the original place. The stick figures on the wall seemed to be laughing at him.

Damn the Clow Cards! Damn Mizuki Utaho! Damn Clow Reed! Damn Elio! Damn...

His resentful muttering did not last long, as the wand that he had thrown away suddenly appeared before his eyes again.

When he looked up, he saw that it was Tomoyo who had helped him retrieve the wand and handed it to him.

Seeing Xia Yu raise his head, Zhi Shi smiled softly: "The Xia classmate I know is not someone who gives up so easily. Don't be discouraged, there will definitely be a way."

Hearing this and looking at Zhishi's encouraging smile, Xia Yu reached out to take the wand that Zhishi handed over, stood up and said, "I'm not discouraged."

"Yes, yes, Xia is so capable, he will definitely not give up."

"Why do I feel like you're coaxing a child?"

"Haha~ Then Xia must be wrong."

　At this time, Meiling was still looking for an exit alone.
