Chapter 253: Qianqian, Qianqian
The water-pulling formation belongs to the yin element in the five elements. It just so happens that what Shuiwan City lacks the least is water. Using water as the line and direct bloodline as the guide, the effect can be maximized.
However, even a basic formation requires a lot of spiritual power, and what Jiang Liqian wants her fellow disciples to do is to help her stabilize the formation.
Although she didn't want to see Yun Ruyi again and would rather not have any contact with her, but with human life at stake, she had to suppress her resentment and explain to her in detail the details and precautions of setting up the formation.
The person in front of me has the same eyes and eyebrows as yesterday. Under the bright moonlight, she stands tall and straight, independent and distinguished. A simple plain skirt is draped over her body. She is as graceful as before, as fast as a meteor, holding a sword and questioning the sky.
The fragrance of pine snow comes with the wind and goes with the wind, as if it can never be caught.
The mountain tops are covered with snow, and the world is filled with the bright moonlight.
"Yun Ruyi, Yun Ruyi..."
"As one wishes--!"
Her unfocused pupils gradually regained clarity. Yun Ruyi, who had lost her mind at some point, realized that the girl in front of her had a red face and was glaring at her angrily.
That "Ruyi" sound seemed to be the result of extreme anger, and finally a familiar sense of helplessness and gnashing of teeth emerged from the cracks in time and space.
She stared at her blankly for a long, long time before she heard her scolding through the distorted image.
"Did you hear what I said? Seriously, if we don't catch the murderer, Water Bay City will never be at peace, and more children will go missing. This is no small matter!"
Even when she was furious, she was still in the habit of pointing out the pros and cons of things in a persuasive tone.
No matter how unpleasant the words are, there won’t be any more.
Yun Ruyi forced herself to calmly look away from her face. She couldn't help feeling sour and bitter in her heart. She couldn't tell whether it was hatred or sadness. In the end, it all turned into a mocking sneer.
Qianqian, Qianqian.
Even if you were reincarnated thousands of times, you still wouldn't be able to utter a single dirty word to vent your anger?
"Yun Ruyi, I hope you can understand your responsibilities as a disciple of the Qiankun Sect. Going on a mission is not a joke. If you don't want to be here, you can leave now and let someone else take your place!" Jiang Liqian saw Yun Ruyi distracted several times, and finally she was so angry that she swung her sleeves, wishing she could just leave.
She didn't understand if she was doing this on purpose to irritate her.
After all, even though she had been hiding in the peak for the past nine years, her reputation and praise still reached her ears. From her understanding of her, she was not someone who treated missions as a joke, nor was she someone who regarded human lives as worthless.
She really couldn't think of any other reason why she was frequently distracted except that she was dissatisfied with her.
She admitted that when she saw her for the first time at the moment of her rebirth, she couldn't hide the sadness and resentment in her heart, so the quarrel between the two was not good. But settling personal grudges privately is not as good as bringing them to the mission. Isn't it irresponsible not only to herself, but also to the members of her team?
However, she angrily thought about a lot of random things, but the girl in front of her only said four words softly: "I know."
Then he added lightly, "I heard it all clearly."
A punch to the cotton.
Jiang Liqian only felt that her face must be full of colors and looked particularly beautiful.
She gritted her teeth, closed her eyes angrily, turned around and left.
Since she had heard it clearly, she would not waste any more words.
"Hey, Fellow Daoist Jiang, what should I do?"
"Stay next to me!"
"what?"
As the full moon approached, the crescent moon in the sky grew increasingly full and lustrous, its bright yellow light shone on the gurgling water, casting a starry glow across the lake. Amidst the starlight, Jiang Liqian and the City Lord ascended the stairs to Shuiyue Pavilion, the tallest building in Shuiwan City.
"The water formation consumes a lot of spiritual energy. If I can't hold on any longer, you can hold on first."
Su Yanqing pointed at himself and said, "You mean, there's a high possibility that you'll give up the job to me?"
Jiang Liqian turned her head to look at City Lord Zhao: "Will we be rewarded for helping you?"
City Lord Zhao smiled cheerfully, his eyes swept from her face to Su Yanqing, and nodded: "Of course."
Jiang Liqian turned around and said, "If Fellow Daoist Su is not involved, I will ask the city lord to call the guards up."
"No, no, no, I'll do it!" Su Yanqing's bitter face immediately changed, his eyes full of flattery, "I'm young and strong, I can do it, I promise to hold this place and do it beautifully for you!"
"..."
It's really rare for the young master to be so servile! Xuan Ling is not like this. Most of the time, he is obedient and only occasionally tries to please her and act like a spoiled child...
Jiang Liqian stopped thinking when the past scene came to her mind again. She took a deep breath and put all the messy thoughts behind her.
"My Lord City Lord, when I set up the formation, no matter who dares to come up to the pavilion, they will be killed without exception. No one is allowed to destroy the formation." Before setting up the formation, she reminded City Lord Zhao again.
City Lord Zhao also knew the importance of this matter and nodded seriously.
Jiang Liqian felt relieved, opened the "Must-Memorize Catalog of Formations", compared his hands, and began to quickly form the formation.
The glass-like moonlight reflected on the water surface, and then floated in the air drop by drop with the night mist. Then, attracted by the spiritual power of the formation, it slowly formed a huge translucent purple formation in front of the attic.
At the same time, Yun Ruyi also started to take action. According to the layout in the "Must-Memorize Catalog of Formations", he stood beside the waterways in Shuiwan City, and then input his spiritual power into the water the moment he saw the purple light of the formation.
The moonlight from the sky and the mist on the water surface continued to pour into the formation, but Jiang Liqian's hands were still moving rapidly. It was fine at first, but soon, the huge output of spiritual power made her face turn pale at a speed visible to the naked eye.
But she remained calm. After completing the last mark, she pointed her jade-white fingertips slightly downwards and then gently hooked them. Aunt Chen and Uncle Zhang, who were standing outside the attic, immediately felt a pain in their wrists, and then two thin streams of blood flowed into the magic circle under the guidance of spiritual power.
The purple water formation suddenly merged into the red light.
"Life and death appear!"
Jiang Liqian let out a low shout, and then the red color in the magic circle began to spin rapidly, and the color became brighter as the speed of rotation increased.
Finally, the red light stopped rotating and split into two halves, one half was brighter and the other half was a little dim, but the red light did not dissipate.
Jiang Liqian felt a little relieved when she saw this scene.
It seems that the two little guys are safe for the time being, but I don’t know how long they can last.
With her eyes slightly narrowed, she began to change her gestures. The crimson light merged together again and slowly rotated in the center of the array disk. As it rotated, a stream of water surrounded by moonlight merged into a thin water line and was drawn out from the array disk.
After a brief pause, the waterline seemed to be guided by something, slowly locking onto a direction, and then flew away into the distance.
But at this moment, the red light suddenly stopped.
