Chapter 362 - 362: Finally Seeing The Rainbow After The Storm
MO Ruyue suddenly felt that the owner of the mirror valley should be a very cheerful and humorous person. The gift this time was really unexpected, and it even had a hint of ridicule.
However, what confused them the most was that they had not yet figured out the function of the grass. Now, there were two more literary balls. This really seemed like a prank.
“Since I’ve given it to you, why don’t you accept it and have a drink with this senior?” MO Ruyue asked.
Although he was speaking to Gu Ying, he was observing the “person” who was sitting cross -legged.
She felt that the ‘person’s’ lips had curled up a lot, and there were a few more fine lines at the corner of his eyes.
He… He seemed to be smiling?
Even though she wasn’t sure if her guess was correct, MO Ruyue still took out two jars of wine that she had specially brewed.
One jar was placed in front of that “person,” and the other was given to Gu
Ying.
“Many thanks for Senior’s gift. Junior will cherish and use it well.”
Gu Ying first thanked the “person,” then took a big gulp of wine, and said, “It would be great if you could tell me how to use the gift.”
The ‘person’ who was sitting cross-legged remained silent, not reacting to Gu Yings jar of wine.
Gu Ying had never been a talkative person, but he didn’t know if it was because he was drunk or for some other reason, but he would say something every time he toasted.
MO Ruyue was not idle either. She drank a jar of wine with Gu Ying, but she was much quieter. She just drank one mouthful after another, and at the same time, she did not forget to look at the changes in the surrounding environment.
Just as the jar of wine was about to be finished, a strange phenomenon suddenly occurred!
Dark clouds rolled and strong winds rose. The sky, which was originally cloudless, was instantly filled with dark gray clouds.
From behind the thick clouds, an orange-red flame shot out, burning through the clouds, leaving a trail of thick smoke behind it as it crashed toward the ground.
A meteor shower!
He didn’t expect that the natural disaster would affect this alternate dimension. What was it like outside now?
The two’s expressions changed, and they subconsciously wanted to pull up the ‘person’ sitting in front of them to dodge together.
Although he couldn’t be taken outside, he could at least be brought into the corridor, in case his “remains” were hit by meteorites and destroyed.
However, Gu Ying’s pull didn’t move it. Even with MO Ruyue, it still wouldn’t work.
That “person” seemed to have already taken root in the ground. With the two’s current divine power, they were actually unable to move him in the slightest.
“Ying, no, this looks like an illusion!”
MO Ruyue suddenly realized that the meteorites had been raining down for a long time, causing the earth and rocks around them to fly everywhere. The sea of fire spread, but it didn’t hurt them at all. They didn’t even feel the burning heat of the flames.
“It’s an illusion. Look at that tree.”
Gu Ying pointed behind MO Ruyue.
The huge tree was covered in huge snowflakes, but they didn’t melt in such a high temperature. The herbs under the tree were still verdant and glistening, and there wasn’t even a choking smell of dust in the air.
The two of them calmed down and began to carefully observe their surroundings.
This time, they felt like they were watching an InMax movie. They could already confirm that this was a replay of a disaster that had already happened.
They had also heard of this phenomenon several times in their previous lives. Some haunted places would show some illusory figures and scenes.
Scientists had also given an explanation for this phenomenon. It was said that the local soil was rich in iron oxide, and the magnetic field was also abnormal, so some scenes would be recorded in stormy weather and then reproduced at some time.
This principle might not be able to explain the current apocalyptic scene. Soon, the two of them found the reason for the reappearance of the apocalypse.
A man with long hair and a loose robe walked over slowly. He was obviously moving very slowly, but he had already arrived in front of them in a few flashes.
His hair covered more than half of his face, and one could only judge from his straight nose and firm chin that he should be an extremely handsome man.
The meteor shower had ended, and he was slowly walking through a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
Smoke and poison gas mixed with sparks flew all over the sky. However, when the man walked over and raised a jade bead in his hand, the smoke and poison gas were pushed away by a layer of hazy green light.
Relying on that jade bead, the white-robed man had saved many people from the purgatory-like Asura Arena.
“Gu Ying, is this the jade bead you’re holding?”
MO Ruyue and Gu Ying turned their eyes at the same time and looked at the two jade balls in his hands.
It was exactly the same size and color. Other than the fact that it did not emit a faint green light, the bead in the illusion was no different from the one in the lonely shadow’s hand.
In other words, one of the jade stone balls could avoid fire, smoke, and poison, but the other jade stone ball had never been used. It must be an extraordinary item.
Next, the white-robed man walked to a contaminated water source and placed the golden grass in it. In just a cup of tea’s time, the dirty poisonous water became clear and transparent again, which was better than any disinfectant and bleach.
With these two treasures, the white-robed man saved countless people. In the illusion, day and night alternated several times, and it seemed that more than a month had passed before he floated away and successfully retreated before dawn.
MO Ruyue turned back to look at the “person” sitting cross-legged. Even if the white-robed man’s face in the illusion was never clearly seen, she could still judge from the outline of his nose and chin that they were the same person.
However, in the records of Xu City, there had not been such a natural disaster for at least hundreds of years. Even if there was, there should have been some traces left behind.
Therefore, it was impossible to determine the year of the meteorite shower, but this person must have been a figure from hundreds of years ago. It was incredible that his remains were still so well preserved.
MO Ruyue even felt that this “person” was still alive, and had only become like this for some unknown reason.
Perhaps it was because he had predicted that the meteorites would rain again, but he had no way to go out and save people, so he summoned her and Gu Ying to come here and entrust the treasure to them, so that they could come out and save people in his place.
This thought grew stronger and stronger in her heart. She even had a feeling that the “person” was smiling at her in approval. “Bing ‘Er, I think we should get out of here.”
Gu Ying said softly.
The illusion had slowly disappeared and finally returned to the original scene.
The sky in the valley was as blue as a mirror, and the grass was as green as a blanket. After the illusion just now, flowers bloomed in the entire valleys herbal field.
Goose yellow, pink purple, sky blue, orange red, it was like a beautiful flower carpet spread all over the valley, the breeze brought a wave of medicinal
fragrance
Was this a hint that there would be a rainbow after the storm?
No matter what, it was time to leave.
They already knew how to use the treasures in their hands. Natural disasters were inevitable, but to be able to save a life from the hands of the king of hell, to them, who were once top assassins, it was an extraordinary feeling. Before they left, the two of them knelt down in front of the “person” and respectfully kowtowed three times.
No matter who he was or what his identity was, even if he had saved so many people from the last natural disaster, he was worth the three heads of the two of them..
