Chapter 1024 - 1024
“This shell is harmful. It shouldn’t have appeared here. Let’s continue moving forward.” Jiang Ming raised his hand. “I finally know what suffering is.”
Sikong Wuyuan shuddered.
He was determined not to touch anything casually in the future.
After taking a few steps forward, they discovered that there were countless such shells. They carefully avoided them.
After walking for a while, they came to a dead end. In front of them was a river.
Some fish were gathering in the river. Jiang Ming recognized that they were the Dragon-Headed Fish that had attacked them previously. There were a lot of them, and it was obvious that they did not want them to cross the river.
There was another boat by the river, but it was broken.
There was a hole in the boat, and there was a skeleton beside it. It seemed to be a fisherman.
Bai Jiangjiang felt a prickling sensation in her body. She turned to look at Jiang Ming, only to find that he seemed a little strange.
After taking a closer look, she already felt that he was the skeleton fisherman,
and she was horrified.
“You’re the fisherman, so whose skeleton is lying there?”
Hearing Bai Jiangjiangs strange words, Jiang Ming and the other two could not help but feel strange.
“What are you talking about? Shouldn’t the fisherman be dead? I wonder if those bones belong to the fisherman.”
Bai Jiangjiang pushed Jiang Ming away. “You’re that skeleton! You want to kill us? No way!’
Jiang Ming was almost pushed to the ground. He could not help but laugh. “Bai Jiangjiang, I’m Jiu Zhu!”
Bai Jiangjiang was stunned for a moment before she shook her head. “l think you’re that skeleton!”
Then, she turned around and found that Sikong Wuyuan and Yuan Hehe had also turned into skeletons. She could not help but hit her head and say,
“What’s wrong with me? I can’t see you at all. You seem real, but also fake.”
Jiang Ming did not understand Bai Jiangjiangs condition, but he felt that it was affected by the surrounding magnetic field. He went forward and burned the skeleton.
After the skeleton disappeared, Bai Jiangjiang returned to normal.
Bai Jiangjiangs forehead was covered in sweat. She exhaled and said, “l finally see you.”
Then, she closed her eyes and fell into the water.
Jiang Ming wanted to catch her, but he could not.
He could only go forward and try to get her back.
However, she sank to the bottom and never came out again.
Sikong Wuyuan could not help but feel anxious.
“Bai Jiangjiang is drowning right after getting to know us. This is not good. I’ll go save her.”
Jiang Ming also wanted to save her, but he knew that he could not do so in the current situation. He stopped Sikong Wuyuan and said, “There are all Dragon-Headed Fish in here. We will soon become their food. If we go over rashly, we will be the ones who die miserably.”
Sikong Wuyuan’s tears were already flowing out.
“Are we just going to sit and wait for her to die? I really can’t accept this.” Yuan Hehe, on the other hand, covered his entire body with spiritual energy. He then told Jiang Ming, “l think you can help me by creating a barrier.” Jiang Ming was confused, but he still complied by casting a barrier.
“I think I can do it.” Yuan Hehe patted his shoulder.
Before Jiang Ming could say anything, he jumped down.
“Hey! Yuan Hehe, what are you doing?”
Jiang Ming was helpless, but he could not jump down with him. He could only wait for him.
The two of them could still communicate telepathically, so he asked Yuan Hehe what was going on.
After a while, Yuan Hehe told Jiang Ming in surprise. “Come down here quickly. There’s another surprise down there.”
Sikong Wuyuan asked with concern, “How is Yuan Hehe? Why don’t we just jump down? Do we still have to wait for him to come back up?”
Jiang Ming nodded. “Let’s jump down. He has already given me an update. There doesn’t seem to be any danger down there.” After saying that, Jiang Ming jumped down.
Seeing this, Sikong Wuyuan hurriedly followed.
As soon as they entered, they found that they could breathe in the water. They also arrived on flat ground very safely.
There was a woman with dragon horns in front of him. She was wearing a maid’s uniform.
When she saw Jiang Ming and Sikong Wuyuan, she knelt down and placed her hands on her chest.
Jiang Ming and Sikong Wuyuan looked at each other and followed the maid.
Jiang Ming found it strange.
Yuan Hehe and Bai Jiangjiang were walking too fast. Even they were not that fast.
Sikong Wuyuan was also thinking about this question, but he was more straightforward and directly asked the maid if they were walking faster.
She chuckled. “You’re wrong. Their speed is the same as yours. It’s just that they are hidden by an inexplicable barrier. Even if they are near you, you wouldn’t know.”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ming deliberately called out to Yuan Hehe in his heart.
However, Yuan Hehe did not make any sound.
Then, he heard the maid continue.
“At the same time, these barriers can also block your telepathy and communication, so you won’t be able to hear each other.”
Jiang Ming suspected that the maid had installed a communication device in his heart. Otherwise, how could she answer so easily? However, he did not ask directly.
They arrived at a palace and happened to see Bai Jiangjiang and Yuan Hehe.
Yuan Hehe was dressed in gold and silver, and he kept twirling in front of the
mirror.
Bai Jiangjiang sat on a chair and sipped her tea.
“l didn’t expect you to like gold and silver so much.”
Sikong Wuyuan took a step forward and teased Yuan Hehe.
Yuan Hehe was pleasantly surprised. “Of course. I thought it was fun, so I put it on. You should try it too.”
As he spoke, he pulled off a golden choker from his neck and was about to put it on Sikong Wuyuan’s neck.
Sikong Wuyuan refused.
“No thanks. I’m not used to wearing jewelry.”
Yuan Hehe thought for a moment and felt that it made sense. He began to look at his clothes again.
When Jiang Ming saw this scene, he could not help but fall silent.
Why was he being treated so well?
“Other than these things, I can give you anything you want as long as you stay here,” the maid said.
Jiang Ming grinned. He knew that there was nothing good going on. He immediately pulled Yuan Hehe and Sikong Wuyuan and planned to leave.
“This place is not good. Don’t talk to the maid. She definitely doesn’t have good intentions.”
Yuan Hehe tried to dissuade Jiang Ming. “Jiu Zhu, this place is not bad. There’s plenty of food and marvelous jewelry. Why should we risk our lives outside? Isn’t it good to stay here? The maid treats us quite well. Don’t think too badly of her..
