Chapter 100 Second Night

Huangfu Miaomiao's face turned pale, and she quickly explained, "I am hallucinating! There was someone talking to me behind me just now, and he looked exactly like the Taoist priest!"

Li Qing lowered his eyes and whispered, "It seems that those fox demons are still unwilling to give up."

Feng Ling smiled and said, "After killing so many of their compatriots, it's normal for them to be unwilling to give up. When Pei Xianjue comes back, let her burn down everything around here, and those foxes will stop."

Thinking of Pei Xianjue, Feng Ling looked around, "...Why hasn't he come back yet? Nothing happened, right?"

"Do you want to go find her?" Li Qing asked.

Feng Ling thought for a moment, "She can't be that weak... Zhou Chu, as a deputy captain, can compare himself to the god of Qingjiang City. I thought the deputy captain of Yuquan City would also be very powerful."

As we were chatting, we heard footsteps in the distance.

The footsteps paused, and were very obvious in the dark night.

Feng Ling looked in the direction of the voice and saw Pei Xianjue's figure gradually emerging from the fog.

Her leg was injured, and she was holding a stick in her hand, dragging her injured leg forward with difficulty.

Feng Ling raised his eyebrows slightly and stared at the other person without saying a word.

There were many illusions in this place. She was not sure whether the person in front of her was really Pei Xianjue, so she needed to observe more.

Pei Xianjue stopped when he saw her, waved his hand, and then continued to walk towards her, looking exhausted and without the energy to say a word.

"Little Skeleton, give her an injection of recovery potion." Feng Ling said to Huangfu Miaomiao.

It must be true, a fox demon can't act so lifeless.

Huangfu Miaomiao put down the branch in her hand, exchanged her points for a potion, and gave Pei Xianjue an injection on his bloody leg.

"Thank you." Pei Xianjue took a breath and thanked in a low voice.

She lost too much blood, and it was hard to even say the word "bleeding". However, if it were an ordinary person, she would have died from excessive bleeding from the aorta.

Feng Ling was considerate and helped Pei Xianjue lie down to rest. He asked her, "Is Liang the hero crazy?"

Pei Xianjue smiled bitterly: "How did you guess that?"

"The fox's sharp fangs can't bite through your legs." Feng Ling replied.

Pei Xianjue looked down at his injured leg, his expression becoming increasingly bitter, "...He may have stayed in the village for too long and gone completely crazy. He actually wanted to kill me. I had no choice but to attack him in order to protect myself..."

She looked up and asked Feng Ling: "Do you have any empty boxes?"

Feng Ling was slightly stunned and asked Huangfu Miaomiao: "Do you have an empty box?"

"Yes..." Huangfu Miaomiao took out a sturdy-looking metal box, "We brought four boxes of grenades, and this one has just been used up. What are you going to use it for?"

"Put ashes in it." Pei Xianjue said with great loyalty, "I can't let him stay alone in the maze. Even if he dies, I will take him back to the human world."

Feng Ling: “…………”

How unlucky...

Six people came into the maze. Except for Li Qing and Huangfu Miaomiao, there were four humans left. She brought exactly four boxes of grenades, one for each person, neatly arranged.

"I'll have to trouble you to accompany me back to the woods when daybreak comes." Pei Xianjue said, "I haven't recovered Liang Zhou's cards yet. He has a high-level card and digested three mid-level cards. He should have four cards after his death, but my phone can only recover two cards at most, so I need to borrow yours."

Feng Ling asked: "Should we wait until dawn? What if the cards are absorbed by those foxes along the way?"

"I set a fire in the woods. It will take several hours to burn out and they can't get in." Pei Xianjue smiled faintly.

Li Qing reminded her: "If his pollution value has exceeded the safety threshold, his internal genes will be in chaos and he will lose his sanity. It is not certain that four cards will be extracted after his death. Only cards with stable genes will be extracted."

This is also the reason why the contaminant has digested a large number of cards, but can only extract one or two cards after being killed.

Feng Ling glanced at the time and said, "I'll keep watch, you guys take a rest."

She would not sleep tonight, lest she dream again. Pei Xianjue wanted to be polite, but the battle with Liang Zhou had consumed too much energy, so she closed her eyes and fell asleep almost immediately beside the fire.

This is the second night after entering the maze.

After leaving the safe zone, I was in the fox village surrounded by illusions. Although there was no great danger, I was still very nervous and spent the whole night in suspicion...

……

the next day.

Pei Xianjue's leg injury healed completely, and he also drank a bag of jelly given by Huangfu Miaomiao, and his mental state completely recovered.

Most of the fog during the day has dissipated, the view is bright and refreshing.

The group returned to the burnt woods and retrieved Liang Zhou's card from the scorched earth.

There are four in total.

"His card genes are very stable." Li Qing said lightly.

"Then his pollution level shouldn't be high?" Feng Ling asked in surprise, "Why did he go crazy?"

Li Qing shook his head, "I don't know."

Pei Xianjue listened to their conversation, knelt on one knee on the ground, and without saying a word, scooped up the ashes of the burnt corpse with both hands and put them into the metal box one handful at a time.

One box certainly cannot hold all the ashes, so it can only be filled up as a token of commemoration.

Pei Xianjue opened his palms and put them into the ashes. He could feel the residual heat from the burning flames, which was as warm as human body temperature.

But it will eventually grow cold, just like the bond between people, which will eventually fade away at some point.

She scooped up handfuls of ashes and picked up some teeth and broken bones and put them in the box.

"Okay, let's leave here." Pei Xianjue said, picking up the metal box.

Feng Ling glanced at the box in her hand, said nothing, and turned away.

I thought I would have to deal with those fox demons for a few more rounds, but I walked and walked and unknowingly walked out of the village.

The process was so smooth and natural that the four people who returned to the mountain path were stunned.

Feng Ling was shocked, "The illusion is no longer effective?"

Pei Xianjue joked, "We blew up houses and burned trees in the village, and killed so many villagers. I guess they can't take it anymore."

Huangfu Miaomiao breathed a sigh of relief and said repeatedly: "It's good that you're out, it's good that you're out... Let's go find the master of the maze, that fox village is too annoying."

Feng Ling thought, although it was annoying, it was not a wasted trip.

At least she found the statue, and Pei Xianjue found the ashes.

They all gained something.

But she had heard before that the statue would appear very close to the Lord of the Labyrinth, and she hadn't seen the Lord of the Labyrinth...

Feng Ling was worried.

As she walked along the mountain path, she couldn't help but look back towards the Fox Village.

The fog was very light today, so you could clearly see the collapsed houses in the village and the woods still emitting black smoke.

There was a lake not far from the village. A huge object broke through the surface of the water, leaving ripples of astonishing size.

Feng Ling opened his eyes wide in shock, and immediately grabbed Huangfu Miaomiao and asked, "Is that the master of the maze?!"

"The master of the maze? Where? Where?!" Huangfu Miaomiao said in panic.

Li Qing frowned and looked over, hesitantly saying: "...Why is there a lake in this location?"
