Tail Observation Diary

At eleven o'clock in the evening on December 29 of the lunar calendar.

Jiang Yue squatted on the steps of the theater. Geng Yao felt sore hands holding the fire, and lit the flame with his left hand. The faint light in the theater flickered for a moment. Seeing that everyone was not interested in talking, Xing Lang swiped his phone to check the time. Said: "There is still a little time, don't stick around, do something."

Ling Xuan said: "Brother Xing, your words are so ambiguous."

Xing Lang clamped Ling Xuan's head by his waist with his arms, and said, "What's ambiguous? Where's the ambiguous? You're playing with me."

Jiang Yue knew that the two of them wanted to be active and mad, but Huo Yi, who was usually the most active, was completely listless.Facing "opening the door", everyone fell into a stiff atmosphere of nervousness or panic. After all, in the past, the enemies everyone faced were spirit beasts. Even if it was an illusion created by spiritual beasts, Jiang Yue knew That's fake.

They have never had the worry of "not coming back", but now, what they are facing is the complete unknown, which is the scariest thing.

Huo Yi sat on the steps, looking very depressed, and said in a low voice: "Are you really determined to 'open the door'?"

Xing Lang: "Huo Yi, two hundred people have disappeared here. Since they were brought into the door by the Nine-Tailed Fox, if they don't open the door, no one will ever rescue them, so in this world, they are equivalent to dead. Are you clear in your heart?"

Huo Yi: "I know..." He looked around, looked at several other people, and finally could only whisper:

"I see."

Ling Xuan and Huo Yi squatted down side by side, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Huo Yi, this is a case that falls on our heads. If we don't solve it, I won't even think about being the director. Brother Xing The captain of the team is also quite embarrassing, when the time comes, we two will be unemployed, gay, unable to find a job, unable to gain a foothold in society, and end up living on the streets...can I go to your house to have a meal?"

Huo Yi smiled helplessly: "It's all my fault."

Ling Xuan: "When encountering problems, solve them. Let us overcome the difficulties together and bravely overcome the difficulties... Well, let's create another glories."

Xing Lang folded his hands behind his back: "Director Ling, you haven't been promoted yet, why are you so bureaucratic?"

Huo Yi took a long breath and looked at the time. There were still 12 minutes before 20 o'clock. He stood up and said:

"Since it is decided to 'open the door', I... I want to say something."

Huo Yi is the only one here who understands magic circles, so everyone quiets down.Huo Yi sorted out his emotions, recovered a little, and said:

"A magic circle is not just a figure drawn on the ground, but a spell cast on the formation. Although we now know the symbol of Candle Dragon's 'opening the door', we haven't mastered the spell. If we want to open the door... we have to reproduce last night. The magic circle in effect here."

Huo Yi stepped on the ground with his feet and continued: "Recreating the magic circle is feasible in the science of magic circles. This is the method of 'opening the door' that I can think of. What we have to worry about now is what is behind the door. "

Geng Yao held up Zhu Yan and said, "Aren't the things behind the door random? How big is this random range?"

Huo Yi closed his eyes and said: "There is no scope, past, present, future, or even another world, all of these are possible. If you are jumping on the timeline, you must be careful not to change the past. The impact is too great, the future is changed, and we may not come back."

Ling Xuan nodded and said, "The Butterfly Effect."

Jiang Yue suddenly remembered something and asked: "If the past or the future is behind the door, will we meet another self?"

Huo Yi pondered for a while, and replied: "In theory, yes, so don't encounter it, it will seriously disrupt the timeline. However, traveling through time is just an idea for opening the door, and we may not run into it, so everyone Be mentally prepared."

Zhao Yanchu stopped talking from just now, and then he opened his mouth: "This is the door opened by the Nine-Tailed Fox, and the boss of the Nine-Tailed Fox is Candle Dragon, so can you think that this door has something to do with Candle Dragon?"

Huo Yi didn't think about this, and said: "...It's possible, but what is the door controlled by Zhulong?"

Zhao Yanchu pinched Jiang Yue's wrist with his hand, turned it up, glanced at the watch on his wrist, and said, "You will only know when you open the door."

12 minutes until 10:[-].

Huo Yi stood up, walked to the center of the field, and said, "I'm going to start drawing." He took out a box of cinnabar, grabbed a little with his fingers, squatted on the ground and moved his wrist, letting the cinnabar slide down along his fingers.

Geng Yao lay on the railing and joked, "Big Tiger, no matter how poorly you learn the formation, you will still carry the cinnabar on your body."

Huo Yi looked focused, and replied: "This is really not cinnabar, it's pepper noodles."

Geng Yao pouted, and Xing Lang said: "...is the pepper noodles also good?"

Huo Yi stood up and clapped his hands. The pattern on the ground has been formed. He replied: "The effect of the magic circle does not depend on the material of the circle, but on the person who drew the circle. How much time is left now?"

Jiang Yue glanced at the time: "3 minutes."

Huo Yi's face faintly showed the animal pattern of a white tiger, and white lightning wrapped around his arms. He motioned for everyone to come to the front of the formation.At this time, the theater no longer needs lighting, and Huo Yi himself is a luminous body.His pupils appeared in the shape of a beast, and Huo Yi snapped his fingers: "Xiao Jiang, let's count down the first 0 seconds before 10 o'clock."

Jiang Yue's heart was raised, and the surroundings became quiet. Then, Jiang Yue began to count down: "10, 9..."

Huo Yi stood in the center of the formation, the formation under his feet began to glow slightly, and a pattern began to emerge, which was exactly what they had seen before, the sign of opening the door!

A strong wind blew up above the magic circle, Huo Yidao: "This is to reproduce the magic circle! Yesterday's door was captured!"

When Jiang Yue's countdown ended, Huo Yi said loudly: "Break!"

The emerging pattern was like a tear in the space, and a hole appeared. The 6 people stood on the opened "door".He subconsciously wanted to find Zhao Yanchu, but because the falling speed was too fast, everything around him became distorted, and Jiang Yue couldn't see anything clearly.

...It feels so familiar.Jiang Yue thought to herself.

The falling process seemed to take only a moment, and it seemed to be very long. Jiang Yue closed her eyes.

At the same time, somewhere in Qin City.

In the forest, the Nine-Tailed Fox stood by the river, looking at the brightly lit downtown of Tancheng City in the distance.

Another nine-tailed fox curled up at its feet, huddled in a ball, sleeping with its eyes squinted. It hugged its tail, moved its ears, turned over, and raised its head.

He stood up and said nervously, "Brother."

The elder brother of the twin nine-tailed foxes was still standing straight, his nine tails were like huge flowers, he lowered his head, rubbed his younger brother to comfort him, and said, "They have opened Lord Candle Dragon's 'door'."

Standing side by side, the two foxes have two pairs of eyes, one golden and the other red, the elder brother has golden pupils in the left eye, and the younger brother has golden pupils in the right.After the 'door' was opened, the red pupils of the two nine-tailed foxes showed imprints, connected with the door, and began to operate.

The younger brother began to rub against his elder brother's body, saying: "Brother, I feel so uncomfortable."

The elder brother lowered his head and licked his cheek, and the younger brother leaned on him, saying: "You said they will find you after they pass by?"

Nine-Tailed Fox looked at his younger brother and replied: "Yes, they will be the first people in this world to face 'myself'."

The younger brother fell into memory: "It's like when my brother found me."

The nine-tailed fox wagged its tail, and the younger brother rolled on the ground, as if suddenly thinking of something, he asked eagerly, "Will Zhuyin not let them come back?"

Nine-Tailed Fox replied: "No."

His eyes turned to his younger brother, the two pairs of identical pupils looked at each other, his voice suddenly softened, and said:

"These spirit beasts that have been assimilated by humans will never come back. They will meet another self, kill each other, and be abandoned in that world forever."

"These envoys of justice who arbitrarily divide spirit beasts into good and evil will see what is truly good and evil... How they treat us in this world will also be treated in that world. Only us..."

The two nine-tailed foxes have turned into human forms, facing each other with the same faces.The elder brother gently touched the side of his younger brother's face, and whispered:

"Only we will be together forever."

Jiang Yue opened his eyes, he was lying on the ground, seeing the gray sky.

He sat up suddenly and began to look around, but there was no one there, and the surrounding scene was very strange.Jiang Yue was in the suburbs, surrounded by lush grassland and woods. He stood up and looked at the time subconsciously, and found that the hour and minute hands moved erratically, and the second hand stopped.

Jiang Yue felt strange. He still had his mobile phone with him. He took it out to see that it was still working, but all the text on the interface became garbled.Jiang Yue tried to click on a song and listened to the microphone, only to hear the rustling sound of bad signal.

Jiang Yue: "..."

Jiang Yue looked up at the sky, the sky was gray, and the sun directly above could be seen through the clouds.

It is about 12 o'clock at noon, Jiang Yue secretly remembers it in his heart.They have to open the door to go back about 6 hours after they came to this world, otherwise they will not be able to go back.

Jiang Yue looked around, but couldn't see anything except grass and trees, and couldn't tell when and where she was.Jiang Yue could only try to walk a few steps around, but still did not see anyone.Jiang Yue said loudly:

"Zhao Yanchu!"

no respond.

He tried calling other people's names again, but there was no response.

It seems that they made a serious mistake, Jiang Yue thought.

They only considered opening the door, but they didn't think that after opening the door, several people would not be in the same place, and now they could only look for it one by one.

But the world behind this door... what exactly is it?Jiang Yue looked at the ordinary grass and trees in front of her, unable to judge at all.

Jiang Yue was a little frustrated. It would be nice if she held Zhao Yanchu's hand before opening the door.If they don't let go when passing through the passage, can they be together now?

Now is not the time to think about it.Jiang Yue patted her face to cheer herself up.He turned around, looked into the distance, and finally saw something different.

In the distance, three strands of black smoke are slowly rising and blending into the gray sky.

...is it a chimney?

Jiang Yue was full of doubts.
