Asura of Tomorrow's Ark

But now, Ting Yi means... He seems to have other ideas?

"Why, do you have any other methods?"

"Of course," Yi said seductively, "Now the passages on the ground have basically been blocked by floods. Even if you have the ability to fly, you can't move forward in this kind of storm, so... we can go underground."

"Underground? Don't tell me there is a tunnel underground that leads directly to Tianyue Mountain."

Li Ang sneered at Qi Qi's statement. If such a tunnel really existed, who dug it?Besides, why didn't Yi take that tunnel?There must be a hole dug here, waiting for them to jump into it.

"Of course it's not a tunnel," Yi shook his head, "No one comes here at all, how could someone dig a tunnel? I mean an underground river."

"I know there is an entrance to the underground river nearby. Through that river, we can cross the Linghai Peak and reach the basin interrupted by the Tianyue Mountains in a short time."

"..."

Li Ang's mouth twitched involuntarily, "Going to the underground river in this weather? Are you sure?"

It's better to call it a tunnel, then at least it can be treated as a joke.

And now Yi says it's an underground river?Is he tired of living?Entering an underground river in this kind of weather has no other possibility than drowning.

"I think you may have misunderstood. I was referring to an underground river that has completely dried up."

Yi explained, "Only in the flood season, there will be a certain amount of river water there. At other times, there is only a dry river bed. Moving along a good river bed may not be faster than on the ground, and the direction there is more difficult to identify, and you may get lost. Sex is high.”

"But it's different now. The surge of rain has filled the river bed, and we can take a boat and move along the river."

If Xiangyi said that, this plan does have a certain possibility, but the problem is...

"Where's the boat? We don't have a boat. Do we have to swim across the river?"

It's not reliable to cut down trees to make rafts now. None of them are good at water at all, let alone professional things like making rafts. It can't be done by just finding a few pieces of wood and tying them up and waiting for them to work out. A raft that can carry people may even stop raining in the sky.

"This is nothing to worry about. The spell of my clone is to control ice,"

As he spoke, Yi opened his palms. Both Li Ang and Jingzhe could see several small blue ice crystals floating in his palms. "I can make a small boat out of ice. If there are only two or three people on board, it can be fully supported." By the time they reach the basin, others can hide in Xi’s paintings.”

Li Ang and Jingzhe looked at each other, even the last problem had been solved by Yi. The two of them always had the feeling that this had been arranged by Yi long ago.

But the chance encounter between them was something that Yi could control, but the heavy rain in the sky couldn't have been arranged by him, right?What's more, his clones also suffered heavy casualties in the heavy rain. In the end, only two of them survived by chance.

"So, Ning..."

Seeing that neither of them agreed immediately, Yi targeted Xuancheng, who had been playing stick next to him since he came out.

Before the name blurted out, Yi saw Xuancheng's somewhat unkind eyes, so he sincerely changed his words and said, "Xuancheng, what do you think of this method?"

After glaring at Yi, Xuancheng said to Jingzhe,

"Lord Wei Ting, I know this guy is not trustworthy, but we don't have much time to waste now, and the risks of the two options of advancing in the rain and walking underground rivers are basically the same."

Although it has been determined that the traces discovered previously were left by Yi, this does not mean that they can wait here for the rain to stop.

It is possible for a boat to capsize in an underground river, but there is also a possibility of being swallowed by a flash flood while traveling in the rain. There is essentially no difference, and even the chess plan may be faster.

"...I need to think about it." Jingzhe said.

"How about this," Yi once again proposed a plan. "Since you can't make a decision, you might as well ask other people for their opinions. Anyway, I have already told you the information. The choice of what to do is up to you. In hand."

Jingzhe glanced at Yi suspiciously, wondering what kind of medicine he was selling in the gourd.

However, this method has no harm to her at all. It is better to say that Jingzhe had this plan in the first place, but Yi just brought it up first.

"Okay, just ask other people what they think."

"Xuancheng, you and Yi wait here, I'll call the others."

Yi didn't object and stood there with a smile, watching Jingzhe and Li Ang walk towards the houses.

After walking a little further, Li Ang used magic to isolate the conversation between him and Jingzhe, and said, "Jingzhe, don't you think he is a little too active?"

"...It's a bit strange, but everything he does is really helpful to us."

This is also something that puzzles Li Ang.

His intuition told him that Yi was definitely hiding something in these seemingly normal things, but he couldn't think of any clues, so he could only scratch his hair and give up.

"Forget it, let's talk about other things first. Regarding the underground river... he probably didn't lie. He said before that he had infiltrated into the team heading to Tianyue Mountains more than once, and he actually reached Tianyue Mountains. He did They may have other roads, but if they want to take the water route... I have no objection."

"Then the Zhao family father and son..."

If we had to take the water route, wouldn't the two guides Zhao and his son be useless?

"Yi will definitely not let them leave. Besides leading the way, they have other uses for Yi."

"Also..." Jingzhe sighed.

With that said, the two of them arrived at Xi's thatched cottage.

"Xi should still be resting. She spent too much energy controlling herself before, so we shouldn't disturb her."

Jingzhe nodded, skipped Xi's room, and walked towards the room where Adele lived.

Adele had clearly said before that she was going to help Li Ang get a piece of clothing, but Li Ang had been chatting with Yi for a long time, and Adele had no intention of coming out of the house yet, and she didn't know what she was busy with.

"By the way, how did that guy convince you before? I'm a little curious."

"he……"

Hearing this question, Jingzhe smiled bitterly and replied, "He took out a letter from the Grand Tutor."

Chapter 95 Decisions

"There's really nothing we can do..." Li Ang glanced at Jingzhe with some sympathy, "Thank you for your hard work."

Jingzhe could only helplessly shake his head.

Tutor?Li Ang remembers that this seems to be the emperor's teacher, right?He is considered one of the people with the highest status in Dayan.

People can't help themselves in the Jianghu, and this is even more true in the court. They are even more restricted than in the Jianghu.

Li Ang could also understand the frustration in Jingzhe's heart. Even though it was just a handwriting from the Tutor, who could be sure that there was no emperor's intention in it?Jingzhe was in a high position, so he thought more. Yi just relied on such a handwriting to directly control Jingzhe.

However, the emperor...

Regardless of whether the Ministry of Rites, Tianshi Mansion or Si Suitai got involved in this matter, it was not surprising at all, but the Emperor of Dayan, why did he have a hand in this matter?

Prevent the resurrection of the old beast?But can’t we just leave this kind of thing to our subordinates?There is no need for him to enter through the hands of the Taifu.

And if Emperor Dayan really wanted to enter, he should have sent his cronies over instead of cooperating with a dangerous person like Yi.

Even if you take a step back, there are still candidates among the incarnations of the beast that are more suitable for cooperation than Yi, such as Big Brother, Ling, Shu, and even the less reliable Nian, who are all more suitable candidates for joining. They have all worked for Dayan. Hundreds of years have passed, and some people are still serving as officials in the court. Even if they don't have a good impression of Dayan, they will not do anything to harm Dayan.

Unless...there is some reason why I can only choose chess.

While Li Ang was thinking about why Emperor Dayan wanted to cooperate with Yi, they had already arrived outside Adele's house.

"Adele, are you in there?" Li Ang knocked on the door and said, "Am I coming in?"

Then, they heard a thump of footsteps inside the house, and soon the door was opened.

Popping her head out of the house, Adele looked at Jingzhe beside her with some surprise, "Huh? Sister Jingzhe, you are here too... What do you want to see me for?"

"Well," Jingzhe nodded, "I have something to discuss with everyone, so I came over to let you know."

"That's it...then wait for me for a moment, I'll be fine soon."

With that said, Adele ran back into the house.

From the crack in the door, you can see that the house looks a bit messy, with all kinds of large and small things scattered everywhere, as if you are looking for something.

...Isn’t it just asking Adele to bring out a piece of clothing?What is she looking for in the house?

But seeing Adele, Li Ang suddenly thought of another thing, which was what he had discussed with Adele before, why Wei Yanwu, the ruler of Longmen, gave up the throne of Dayan.

"...A curse?" Li Ang whispered.

Jingzhe, who was standing nearby, didn't hear clearly what Li Ang said just now, and subconsciously asked, "What?"

"Nothing." Li Ang shook his head and did not speak out his guess rashly.

After all, this is just one of the possibilities. This matter is closely related to the Emperor of Dayan. It will be a bit embarrassing if you guess wrong.

The only thing that Emperor Dayan has to do with the Sui Beast is the curse they left on the throne of Dayan after they killed the gods... Could Yi have the ability to lift this curse?

Unknowingly, Li Ang's guess was very close to the truth of the matter, but he still didn't know the true purpose of Yi, and there was still one last piece of the puzzle that had not been filled in.

The two waited outside for about two or three minutes before they saw Adele running out wearing black clothes.

"Li Ang, wear this clothes."

With that said, Adele stuffed the suit of clothes into Li Ang's arms.

"This is……"

When I took it in my hand, I saw that this was not the clothes used for the ceremony in Sagazaki City. How did Adele find this clothes?

This is also the only souvenir they brought from Sagazaki City. Adele's white suit is not suitable for daily wear, but Li Ang's suit is fine and is a very common costume in the East.

"If you had been wearing these clothes before, maybe Li Ang wouldn't have been injured. Wouldn't the next journey be more dangerous? Li Ang, you'd better put on this." Adele said.

Although this suit of clothes is not invulnerable, its defensive power is comparable to that of ordinary heavy armor. Li Ang felt that the commemorative significance of this suit of clothes was greater than its practical use, so he put it away, but since Adele specifically found it Come out, then put it on.

"Okay." Li Ang nodded.

It's just a piece of clothing anyway.

Hmm... Adele is relatively thin-skinned, and she probably wouldn't be willing to change into that white suit in front of everyone, so Li Ang simply didn't mention it.

"You two go ahead, I'll come back after I've changed my clothes."

When Li Ang changed his clothes and came outside again, everyone was already here, and he was the last one to come.

Sangbao helped Nian take care of all the wounds, big and small. She was now covered in bandages, as tight as a rice dumpling.

Seeing Li Ang who had changed his clothes, Nian's eyes lit up and he joked, "The clothes are pretty good, little brother."

Nodding towards Nian, Li Ang asked, "Have you finished the discussion? What is the final decision?"

Before Li Ang came out, Yi told everyone about the underground river in front of everyone.

"Me? It doesn't matter to me, but if I can get to Tianyue Mountain faster, I have no objection." Nian said.

The implication of Nian is that she is more inclined to go to the underground river instead of waiting here stupidly.

"I, I can do whatever I want... I don't have any ideas." Sang Biao said weakly.

After the two of them expressed their thoughts, there was actually no need to ask other people. As for the Zhao family and his son, they were not qualified to express their opinions at all. The two of them were at best two pendants in the team.

In the end, everyone unanimously approved Yi's proposal and headed to Tianyue Mountain through the underground river.

"Thank you for your affirmation, then... when should we set off? The entrance to the underground river is still some distance away from here. If I want to set off, I need to make some preparations in advance, but I would prefer to take a short rest."

Although this plan was proposed by Yi, he himself didn't look too anxious.

Everyone looked at Jingzhe, waiting for her to make the final decision.

Jingzhe thought about it for a few seconds and finally said,

"Then take a day off and we'll set off tomorrow morning."

Chapter 96 Entrance

The next day, nearly 48 hours had passed since the first lightning struck, but the heavy rain outside still showed no sign of stopping.

If the scale of the heavy rain two days ago was only close to a natural disaster, the harm of this rain now has exceeded that of ordinary natural disasters. At this moment, all of them realized that this rain would never stop easily.

The rain in Jiangnan often lasts for half a month, and this rain seems to have the same trend.

There is no day or night in the world in the painting. Everything needs to be manually controlled by Xi, the master of this world.

But the problem is... Xi has gone to bed early because of too much consumption, and they can only spend one night in the open world.

One night passed, and everyone's biological clocks were a little confused due to the reversal of day and night, but they still adjusted their state and prepared for the next action.

According to Yi, based on the flow rate of the underground river, they can reach the vicinity of Linghai Peak in as little as six hours, which is many times faster than traveling over mountains and ridges on the ground. The only problem is, Yi's This clone may not be able to maintain the spell for such a long time.

Everyone understands this, but whether they believe it or not is another matter.

After final discussion, they decided to let Yi shrink the ice boat to a size that can only accommodate two people, so as to minimize consumption and only need to rest once or twice to reach the end of the river.

In fact... Li Ang could completely put other people in the world of the painting and swim along the underground river alone. Anyway, he could breathe in the water and there was no danger of drowning.

But after thinking about it, Li Ang felt that he should find something for Yi to do. He seemed to be affecting the group's itinerary intentionally or unintentionally. If he was allowed to be free, who knows what else he would do.
