Because the voice was unfamiliar and the opponent's figure had not yet been exposed, Duoya did not put down the bow and arrow in his hand.
Not only did he not put down his weapon, but even the bowstring remained in full moon state.
Su You, on the other hand, seemed to have guessed who the owner of the voice was.
According to her guess, this person should be the woman named Shan Qing from the caravan, and she is not a combatant, but a spiritual master.
The reason for recognizing her was simple, because there were only five women on this trip, she recognized Vivian's voice, and Duoya was by her side, so she could only be from the caravan.
Before setting off, she carefully observed how everyone was dressed. The sound of footsteps could only be emitted by the hard-soled leather shoes worn by Shan Qing. Another female member of the caravan wore soft cloth shoes. Even if she deliberately Even if you exert force, you will never make such a crisp sound while walking.
Although this guess is probably correct, some testing is still necessary.
Su You pressed down Duo Ya's hand and asked in a volume that the other party could definitely hear: "Are you Lan Yin?"
The other party's walking voice seemed to pause for a moment, and then replied: "No, I am Shan Qing. I hear your voice sounds like... Lord Su?"
After hearing Shan Qing's answer, Su You took Duo Ya around the corner and saw a woman wearing a pink and purple robe.
Su You: "Yes, it's me. The one next to me is Duoya."
Seeing Su You and Duo Ya, Shan Qing breathed a visibly relieved sigh, and then she took out the spiritual master's props—a few crystal beads that looked very delicate and round.
"I just tried to sense it and found someone here, so I came over. It seems that my sense should be correct." The spiritual master is a very complicated profession.
Its complexity is not the complexity related to difficulty, but the complexity of everything involved, because there are too many types.
Trying to be as simple as possible to introduce their abilities, they can sense the presence or absence of danger, sense the existence of life, and feel the good or bad of choices... It can be said that it is somewhat similar to divination and fortune-telling, but it is completely different.
Just like what Shan Qing said just now, when she sensed that there was someone here, she actually sensed that there was life force here.
To be alive is to have 'creatures', and everyone happened to be separated. Shan Qing, an assistant with no fighting ability, could only hope that the 'creatures' she sensed were lost companions, not monsters in the ruins.
Fortunately, what Shan Qing didn't want to see did not happen. She did find a companion, not a monster in the ruins.
"Just in time, with you here we might try to choose a path first." Because the light was a little dim, Su You took out a lighting rune and put it on.
Shan Qing nodded and did not refuse, because she thought so too.
The ability of the spiritual master has always been of great help in a place like a maze where it is easy to be clueless.
"Lord Su, are you two the only ones here?" Shan Qing flicked the crystal-like beads in her hands. Although she was asking a question, she didn't look at Su You or Duo Ya, but stared at everyone around her. I looked at the path.
"Well, it seems so now. Everyone should have been scattered by the ruins." This is a very obvious thing, but Su You also has more detailed clues, such as: "We are fifteen people. If I didn't guess, Wrong, they should have been scattered to five places."
Fifteen people were divided into five groups, which happened to be three groups, so the three of them met here.
Shan Qing didn't think too much about it. After all, she had actually not entered many ruins. Even including this time, she had only explored four ruins in total. Naturally, she could not compare with Su You's experience and self-esteem of hundreds of ruins. Summarize the rules of the ruins.
These rules are difficult to explain, because some things are purely based on experience. Su You couldn't even tell her one, two, three or four, but she was able to deduce some results based on the current situation.
"What Lord Su said makes sense, so what are we going to do now, find people? Or find a way?" Since it is a maze, there must be an entrance and an exit, although the ten people in the caravan heard Captain Tang say that before they came. Eight words that scare people, but it is impossible for them to believe such words.
If it says there is no road, then there is no road?
If it says there is no export, there will be no export?
If they really believed it, they would be doomed!
"Road." Su You chose the latter without hesitation, and also gave a brief explanation for this choice: "Since the ruins separate us, there is a reason for it. People will encounter each other sooner or later, but the road does not It’s something you always need to find.”
In fact, Shan Qing prefers to find someone, but when she thinks of Captain Tang’s repeated instructions before leaving, and she feels that what Su You said is not unreasonable, so after pondering for a moment, Shan Qing decides to follow what Su You said. .
She first turned all the beads in her hands, then took out one of them, and then threw it to the ground hard.
'Da da da--'
As the beads fell to the ground, the three of them heard several crisp sounds.
Duoya had never seen the way a spiritual master used his abilities, so when he saw this scene, he subconsciously thought that the beautiful crystal beads were thrown to the ground with such force that they might break...
But the strange thing is that not only did the bead not break, but it seemed to be pulled by some mysterious force, slowly rolling towards the road to their right... But it was clear that Shan Qing was not moving in a certain direction just now. Instead of throwing the beads, they were thrown almost vertically on the ground.
In this regard, Duoya can only understand that this is a special ability exclusive to spiritual masters.
Seeing that the beads had found their way, Shan Qing seemed a little happy, and her tone was unconcealable joy: "I think this road will bring us surprises."
The 'this road' she is talking about is naturally the road where the crystal beads roll. As for the specific surprise, Shan Qing doesn't know, because she can only sense good and bad luck, and cannot predict the future.
Because the beads rolled very slowly, they walked very slowly, and sometimes they even had to stop and wait for the beads to roll a certain distance before they could catch up.
I don’t know how long they have been walking, but the surrounding scenery seems to have remained unchanged. There are still dark blue high walls wrapping countless winding roads, and they are trapped in them, like birds in a cage.
"The beads have stopped." People are curious about new things, and Duoya is no exception, so in addition to focusing her attention on the surroundings to see if there are any enemies, she is also paying attention to the beads out of the corner of her eye.
After seeing Zhuzi stop, she said this subconsciously.
