The tide is the first moment.
Sawara Domain, open space on the north side.
Sun Yixie came back from a trance and immediately put on a defensive posture.
He looked around and took only a few seconds to confirm the changes in his surroundings.
Although he had no actual breathing problems due to his internal strength, at this moment he was having "difficulty breathing" in another sense.
"What the hell... what the hell?" Looking at the earth illuminated by red light, the "bleeding" rivers, and the "eye" staring at him in the sky, Sun Yixie's heartbeat and breathing were racing. Driven by his cowardly nature, he quickly accelerated.
"Keijiro - Keijiro! Where is your mother?" Just a few seconds later, Sun Yixie shouted. It was unclear whether he was calling for help or cursing. Anyway, he sounded very anxious.
After shouting for a while and realizing that no one was paying attention to him, Sun Yixie calmed down and made a decision that was very in line with his temperament: "Well... I'm afraid this place is not filled with goblins. It seems that I can only leave it to Brother Huang." It’s settled, why don’t I withdraw first, staying here will only cause more chaos.”
As if to comfort himself, he muttered a few words to himself, then turned and walked further north, towards the canyon at the entrance to Sawara Domain.
Yes, this "open space on the north side" is the first open space you reach after entering Sawara Domain's only land entrance. From here, you can turn back to the road out of the domain.
At this moment, Sun Yixie was like a protagonist who had just entered a copy of a horror game and immediately turned around and tried to escape through the door... His behavior would not succeed in most games.
Of course this is not a game right now, so what is waiting for him?
"Oh? There are so many guards here at this time?" When Sun Yixie ran and approached the gate to enter the domain, he found that there were people standing guard there just like when he was captured. And there are many more.
Those people seemed not to notice the bloody light above their heads at all. They were standing and patrolling when they should. It was exactly the same scene as Sun Yixie saw during the day.
"Eh? That's not right..." And Sun Yixie quickly realized that this scene was obviously abnormal.
Assuming that there is no rice tide now, there cannot be so many people on "night shift" at this entrance... because the gate to the domain entrance is closed at night, so there is no need to arrange as many people as during the day.
Sun Yixie, who noticed the abnormality, immediately changed his direction and leaned towards the road. Instead, he leaned against the cliff and slowly approached the checkpoint.
Not long after, he came to a city wall more than 20 meters away from the entrance gate, and then he was surprised to find that the guards standing guard or patrolling at the door all had extremely weird smiles on their faces.
The smiling face is like when a person is making a face, he uses the thumbs of both hands to pull down the outer corners of the eyes, and at the same time uses the index fingers of both hands to pull up the corners of the mouth as much as possible, so that the mouth can be grinned to the limit.
It's just that the guards didn't use any help at this moment, and they all maintained such expressions.
"What's going on? Did I fall into some kind of hallucination?" Sun Yixie had some experience in fighting various evil spirits, so he began to wonder if there was something wrong with him? Maybe the world around him is normal but seems abnormal to him?
But he then touched the "scar" on his cheek that would only show up and cause pain when he was hit by an evil spirit, and confirmed that there was no feeling at all, so he rejected this speculation.
"Damn it! Give it a shot!" Since he couldn't get the answer by guessing, Sun Yixie finally decided to step forward to explore the reality of these "smiling guards".
As the saying goes, if you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't catch the tiger's cubs. If he doesn't get close, how can he know whether these guys are humans or ghosts, demons or demons, and whether they can communicate...
Anyway, the terrain here is open and there is a lot of room for retreat. Sun Yixie relies on his treasured weapons and armor, and his light skills are more than enough to throw away ordinary people. He can still squeeze out this courage through gritted teeth.
"Hey! Good evening, brothers." After a while, Sun Yixie took the initiative to walk up to a group of guards and said hello to them.
At this time, it actually didn't matter what he said. The situation around him was extremely weird. He just casually said something to see what the other party would react.
unexpectedly……
When the guards with strange smiles on the opposite side saw Sun Yixie, their facial expressions remained unchanged, and they all showed a little surprise with their body movements. Then one of them looked like the guard in the squad leader's armor. , then he spoke to Sun Yixie.
This sentence in our book implies, "Who are you? Where did you come from?"
But what fell in Sun Yixie's ears was a Japanese sentence that he couldn't understand, but he probably knew it was Japanese.
Someone may have reacted after seeing this...
That's right, Huang Donglai's "Conquer Xun Defamation" spell that he cast on Sun Yixie and maintained it with a small amount of Dao power stored in his finger accidentally "ran out of power" at this moment.
So at this moment, Sun Yixie could hardly understand Japanese, and what he said to others sounded like completely untranslated Chinese.
Ever since, what was originally a very weird and terrifying encounter with a full atmosphere suddenly became more harmonious...
"You are talking about Di Nani, and I am saying, which way or how many are you talking about, Wakari Mamaseda?" Sun Yixie used what he had learned throughout his life to try to continue communicating with the other party.
"Nanni?" The guard on the opposite side was also confused, thinking to himself, does this guy speak a dialect from Kansai? The accent is a bit like Osaka, but the content is incomprehensible except for the last sentence "Do you understand?"
"NONONO...NO Nanni." Sun Yixie waved his hand and pointed to the door leading to the outside of the domain, "It's okay if you don't Wakurima Xida, anyway Wadaxi...OUT, Kailumas, hey no Hi?"
The people on the other side looked at each other in shock when they heard this, and then briefly exchanged a few words that Sun Yixie didn't understand.
Then, they all showed their weapons and surrounded him, preparing to capture Sun Yixie on the spot.
"Damn it!" Sun Yixie saw that the guard at the front was about to put the stick on his shoulder. He cursed on the spot, turned around and wanted to run away.
But as soon as he turned around, he found that there were two other teams of patrolling guards who were also attracted by the situation here and blocked his way.
As soon as they saw Sun Yixie turning to leave, they immediately started shouting too. The entire entrance gate suddenly became noisy, as if it was in a wartime state. The guards with bows and arrows on the gate wall also came out one after another in a very short period of time. Then he aimed at Sun Yixie.
Of course, even this... is not enough to keep Brother Sun from being captured.
Sun Yixie has a treasure armor to protect his body. As long as he does a "mouse holding his head and running away", there are basically no vital points on his body that can be broken by bows and arrows shot by ordinary people.
Therefore, now he still firmly chose to turn around and escape.
The two teams of guards who intercepted him on the way saw that this fellow dared to resist, so they attacked him at the corners. At this moment, they were no longer trying to capture him, but were raising their spears and knives to attack him directly. The look of hacking him to death.
But Sun Yixie was not afraid of this formation. As long as he used his trident to clear the way, how could these people stop him with their weapons and strength.
Swish——
With a sweep of the halberd, the people blocking the front line were cut into two with their weapons as expected. Sun Yixie easily got through the not-yet-completely formed double team.
As he continued to run away, he did not forget to look back to see if there were more people or arrows chasing him.
Who knows, it doesn't matter if he doesn't look back, he will be shocked when he does.
But... the guards who had just been split open by him with his trident a few seconds ago were "splicing" and "recovering" themselves on the ground.
During this process, their bodies, including the clothes on their bodies, briefly changed into another kind of substance: the substance looked smooth on the surface, but had no luster, and had a rich texture but no muscles. It feels like a skinless dragon or a wriggling worm... The bones are growing out of the skin, and the internal organs are visible between the flesh. They slowly melt together and finally become a complete person again. Intact clothes and armor appeared on his body again... and even the weapon in his hand was restored to its original state.
When Sun Yixie saw this scene, his reaction was also simple and unpretentious.
"Ah -" he shouted at the top of his lungs and sped up his escape pace.
