Chapter 188 How can stinky Baiying curse people?
Chaos comes quickly and goes away quickly.
After the old woman fainted, the order of the whole world seemed to be reestablished in an instant.
The corpses scattered on the ground disappeared, the red carpet returned to its original state, and even the pungent smell of blood in the air disappeared.
Everything inside and outside the tent returned to normal, as if everything that had just happened was just a nightmare.
Jasmine looked down at the terminal on her wrist. The piercing alarm had disappeared and the values on the display had returned to normal.
The desert wind blew gently through the tent, bringing cool breezes.
The sounds of tribesmen talking and laughing could be heard from within the tribe, and melodious flute sounds floated in the air.
Everything was exactly the same as when they first arrived.
Violet frowned and whispered:
"Is everything here really just a recurring illusion as the goblin said?"
"But……"
Jasmine's face was filled with confusion. "If this is really just an illusion, then why can we move freely?"
"It stands to reason that there shouldn't be real life in a fantasy world."
Laurel looked around with a serious expression:
“Maybe this is indeed some kind of special space.”
"But I'm afraid only Sha Wan knows what its specific nature is."
The old woman lying on the ground took a breath and slowly opened her eyes.
She looked around blankly, seemingly having no memory of what had just happened.
"grandmother!"
Sha Wan's eyes lit up, and regardless of her high fever, she staggered to the old woman and threw herself into her arms.
"You finally woke up! Grandma suddenly fainted just now, and I was almost scared to death!"
The old woman smiled kindly and gently stroked Sha Wan's hair:
"Silly girl, grandma is just old and she fell down accidentally."
"Besides, I'm fine. Why am I crying?"
Her voice was gentle and kind, completely different from the murderous fairy before.
While wiping Sha Wan's tears, she said distressedly:
"Look, you're running around even though you have a fever. You don't even know how to take care of yourself."
Sha Wan sobbed and hugged the old woman tightly, like a child who had been wronged.
The old woman comforted her softly, with a gentle smile on her face all the time.
The interaction between the mother and grandson was natural and friendly, with no sign of the horrifying scene a few minutes ago.
The old woman gently pushed Sha Wan away and turned to look at Feiying and the other two:
"I'm sorry to have made you, the distinguished guests, laugh at me."
"I have spoiled this child since he was young, and he has a willful temper."
"If she has caused any offense, please forgive her."
"Grandma!" Sha Wan protested immediately, "Who is being willful? I'm obviously a very good boy!"
She puffed out her cheeks, looking unconvinced.
The old woman smiled dotingly and said, "Okay, okay, our Sha Wan is the best."
She turned to Feiying and her group and asked kindly, "You have been in the tribe for quite some time. I wonder if you have gotten used to the life there recently?"
Several girls couldn't help but frown when they heard this.
They had clearly just arrived here not long ago, so how could it have been “some time”?
But thinking about it carefully, this should be the influence of Sha Wan's strange state just now.
Although everything is back to normal.
But in order to erase that terrible experience, this space seemed to automatically add some new "memories".
Violet realized this and immediately stepped forward, bowed slightly and said:
"Thanks to the care of the chief, we are living well in the tribe."
"The tribesmen took good care of us and made us feel the warmth of home."
She said this in a respectful tone, but secretly observed the old woman's reaction.
But the old woman just nodded kindly, and there was no sign of anything unusual on her face.
A relieved smile appeared on the old woman's face, and her eyes swept gently over everyone's faces one by one.
Those cloudy eyes seemed to contain endless love, making people want to believe her involuntarily.
"I have been watching you from the dark since you came to the tribe."
"Now the tribesmen have already regarded you as their own, which makes me feel relieved."
"Now I declare that the tribe will officially accept you from now on."
"From now on, you are our true tribesmen."
As the old woman spoke, she reached out and gently stroked Sha Wan's hair, her tone becoming more gentle:
"I believe you can also feel that compared with the chaotic world outside, our place is small but exceptionally peaceful and stable."
"Here, there is no deception, no scheming, and no need to worry about any danger."
"This is your new home. Please feel at ease and live here peacefully."
"Perhaps this place is not as prosperous as the place you came from, but at least it can allow you to live a peaceful and stable life without chaos."
When the girls heard these words, the corners of their mouths couldn't help but twitch slightly.
Live a peaceful life?
Everyone knows that this old woman is talking nonsense.
He had clearly died a few minutes ago.
Now suddenly I'm alive again.
Tell them it's safe here?
Ghosts believe it!
Especially Feiying, she can't stand this kind of hypocritical situation.
This old woman looks fake.
She has always been straightforward and doesn't like these bends and turns.
Just as Feiying was about to speak out to expose this false peace and prosperity, the sharp-eyed Jasmine had already seen through her intention.
Jasmine was quick to cover Feiying's mouth and whispered a warning in her ear:
"Now is not the time to talk about this!"
Feiying glared at Jasmine angrily and tried to break free but was restrained tightly, so she could only make vague protests.
Her eyes, burning with anger, seemed to burn all the hypocrisy before her into ashes.
Seeing this, Yuegui hurriedly tried to smooth things over. She bowed slightly to the old woman and said respectfully:
"Thank you for your care, Chief. We will treat you with sincerity and will never let you down."
"You're welcome." Violet also spoke at the right time, "It is our honor to be able to join the tribe. We will definitely do our best for the tribe in the future."
The old woman nodded with satisfaction, and the wrinkles on her face smoothed out:
"If you can think this way, I will feel relieved for my old bones."
"It seems that I was right about you. You are all good and sensible children."
She paused for a moment and then continued:
"But I am ashamed to say that I got so angry just now that I frightened everyone and made you all come over to care about an old man like me..."
"I'm fine now, so I won't waste your time."
"Everyone, go away and do whatever you need to do."
Following the chief's words, the dull-eyed tribesmen around the tent seemed to be instantly injected with life.
They were like puppets controlled by invisible strings, moving in unison in all directions.
Everyone had a gentle smile on their face, as if the bloody and horrific scene had never happened.
Looking at this strange scene, Feiying and others could not help but look at each other, with disbelief in their eyes.
Violet took a deep breath and nodded slightly to the old woman:
"Since the clan leader is in good health, we are relieved. Take your leave."
The old woman nodded with a smile, and her kind eyes followed them as they left the tent.
however.
Under that gentle gaze, several girls felt a chill.
After walking out of the tent, what greeted us was a scene completely different from before.
The entire tribe has regained its former vitality and vigor.
The tribesmen were either busy with their daily work or sitting and chatting, with laughter and joy heard everywhere.
The melodious sound of flutes floated over the camp, mixed with the curling smoke from cooking, forming a picture of a peaceful and tranquil life.
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed that this place was almost destroyed.
And at this moment.
The only thing that was out of tune with this peaceful atmosphere was the guard who had attacked them.
She was dressed in tattered clothes, her face was distorted, and her eyes were so wide that they almost popped out of their sockets.
She wandered madly in the tribe, screaming from time to time:
"Monsters! You are all monsters! You are all monsters!"
Soon, several tribesmen gathered around her and restrained her.
Those tribesmen still had gentle smiles on their faces, as if they were dealing with a very ordinary trivial matter.
They dragged the guard who was still struggling frantically away, and her shrill cries gradually disappeared into the depths of the tribe.
The group walked away from the tent.
They returned to the residence arranged for them in the tribal camp.
They gathered together and discussed in a low voice.
"The girl who attacked us just now should have mistakenly entered here like us and was forced to blend in. She doesn't look like an illusion..."
Laurel looked solemn and spoke slowly.
"So, what should we do now?!"
Feiying sat on the ground and scratched her hair irritably:
"That goblin finally showed up, and it's almost turning this place upside down."
"Just because that little brat said a few words, everything is restored to the way it was before? Why?!"
She hugged her knees and pouted like a sulky child:
“I really don’t understand this situation at all.”
"It's a cycle again and again, and reincarnation. It makes me feel dizzy just listening to it."
"I didn't have this much of a headache when I faced the end before..."
Violet frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, she said:
"Based on the intelligence we have so far, we have determined that this is an illusory spiritual realm maintained by the Eternal Flower."
"That wind fairy is also hiding in this illusion, and it is very likely living in the body of the clan leader."
She paused, with a hint of helplessness in her tone:
"And judging from what happened just now, this fairy is most likely being suppressed by Sha Wan, or the Eternal Flower."
"But to be honest, I really have no idea how to break the deadlock."
Laurel and Jasmine looked at each other and fell silent.
They knew very little about fairies.
This kind of weird situation is unheard of and there is no way to deal with it.
"or......"
Yuegui hesitated for a moment and said awkwardly, "Ask Baiying?"
“Senior!” Feiying immediately jumped up and pointed at Yuegui with a depressed look on her face, “Didn’t you just say that you shouldn’t rely too much on Baiying!”
Laurel shrugged helplessly.
"You two are the fairies. How can I be 100% sure about how to deal with fairies?"
"So naturally I wanted to see if you had any opinions."
"And if I were alone now, knowing that all this was an illusion, I would probably kill Sha Wan's grandmother right in front of her."
