Time Travel: The Survival of Li Zhi

"boy!"

The sound coming from the house was not loud, but it sounded like thunder to the ears of the people behind the rockery.

Li Zhi looked up and saw that everyone present, except Fang Jie, even Li Yuqing, had a pale face.

Seeing this, Li Zhi knew clearly in his heart that what they said before, that the appearance of the baby boy would turn this place into hell, was true. And it was very scary and dangerous.

However, Li Zhi has never been a man who would sit and wait for death. He looked at Li Yuqing. He had originally planned to cooperate with Li Yuqing, but at this moment, Li Yuqing's face had lost all his previous spirit, and his expression revealed panic and fear.

Li Zhi knew in his heart that Li Yuqing was, after all, just a rookie who had just started out and there was nothing he could rely on.

So, Li Zhi looked at the only calm person among the people present except him.

Fang Jie saw Li Zhi looking at him, so he asked, "What's wrong?"

Li Zhi narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "You don't seem to be afraid at all?"

"Don't you seem afraid?" Fang Jie asked back.

Li Zhi shook his head and continued, "I am afraid, but this thing is not afraid to avoid danger. How much do you know about this ghost den?"

Fang Jie nodded approvingly to Li Zhi and said, "If I'm not mistaken, once the hell they mentioned appears, all these maids and servants will become ghosts, and the red mist covering our bodies will also be slowly erased..."

Li Zhi frowned and asked, "Once the red fog is wiped out, we can only fight these ghosts and evil spirits here to survive?"

"That's right. And according to the rules of the ghost den, once too many ghosts and monsters are killed, the ghost den will release ghosts of higher levels." Fang Jie said.

Li Zhi pointed to the west wing and said, "For example, the midwife just now?"

Fang Jie nodded.

Li Zhi stuck his head out. When he was talking to Fang Jie just now, he didn't know whether there were any other accidents happening outside.

I saw the lady in luxurious clothes holding a swaddled baby and walking slowly towards the osmanthus tree beside her.

Li Zhi had an idea. If burying the baby boy was a dead end, then could the deadlock be broken if he stopped the noble lady from burying the baby boy?

"Did you try to stop her from hiding the baby?" Li Zhi asked, turning around.

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, obviously they had not thought of this.

The Shushan female disciple said with eyes wide open: "Can...can...can we still stop it?"

Li Yuqing looked at Li Zhi and said, "We have only experienced the emergence of a male baby once before, so we really didn't expect this. But is this really feasible?"

"How do you know if it works if you don't try?" Li Zhi said calmly.

Li Zhi knew that these people had fallen into a blind spot in their thinking, and their thoughts were restricted by the evil spirit's erasure rules.

Li Zhi looked at Fang Jie again and asked, "What do you say? Try it?"

After Fang Jie stared outside for a while, he shook his head and said, "It's too late, she's already under the tree!"

Li Zhi looked outside quickly, and sure enough, the elegant lady had come under the tree holding the baby boy, and she was surrounded by dozens of maids and servants. The positions of these maids and servants seemed to be in disarray, but careful observation revealed that once Li Zhi and his men took action, these people would just block their way forward.

Li Zhi sighed in his heart. He knew that the opportunity was fleeting and it was no longer appropriate to take action now.

"Just wait, this baby boy should be the source of the obsession. As long as we can get through it and take action earlier next time, we should be able to break the obsession." Fang Jie sat down leaning against the rockery.

Seeing this, Li Zhi simply sat cross-legged on the ground and placed the black sword across his legs.

Li Yuqing looked at the two of them, who were so bold and arrogant, as if they would remain calm even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of them, and a trace of envy flashed in his eyes. It was his first time going down the mountain, and it was the time when he was full of chivalry and courage. He had an indescribable yearning for Fang Jie and Li Zhi's bold and chivalrous behavior.

But he really couldn't calm down and learn to be as bold and unrestrained as them.

Time seemed to be stretched out. Although every second passed by, it felt extremely long to everyone.

The expressions of the crowd changed constantly, some had gloomy faces, some were anxious, and some kept glancing at others with flickering eyes.

Suddenly, a sharp cry was heard.

The cry was so sharp, like a sword piercing the air, breaking the silence and making people feel creepy.

And this scream was like a fuse, igniting the tension of everyone present. Their faces turned pale, and their eyes were filled with fear and vigilance, as if they were facing a huge threat. Everyone was tense, like a taut bowstring, ready to deal with possible danger at any time.

Li Zhi raised his eyebrows, and saw that the red mist that originally surrounded him suddenly spread out. Li Zhi glanced at the others and found that they were the same, and there seemed to be nothing unusual in their expressions. Li Zhi felt a little relieved.

The spreading red mist merged together and then slowly expanded outwards.

After a while, the red mist merged together to form a cover that enveloped everyone.

"If we prosper together, we all prosper together, and if we suffer together, we all suffer together?"

Li Zhi muttered softly.

At this time, the situation outside began to change dramatically.

The sky, which was originally bright, suddenly turned black at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if ink was poured into it. The entire ghost den seemed to be shrouded by some kind of regular force. The surrounding light seemed to be eroded by the darkness, and the visibility was reduced to the extreme in the blink of an eye.

Only Li Zhi and others who were shrouded in the red fog seemed to be isolated from the rules by the red fog.

However, the red mist also dissipated little by little under the erosion of darkness.

Li Zhi turned around and asked Li Yuqing: "How long will this situation last before it subsides?"

Li Yuqing thought for a moment and said, "About two hours."

Upon hearing this, Li Zhi looked up at the red fog cover again. At this rate of dissipation, the red fog would not last for two hours, and it would be great if it could last for one hour.

I'm afraid a fierce battle is inevitable. Although Li Zhi doesn't show it on his face, he has already become more alert in his heart.

After a period of noise, the people present finally quieted down gradually. However, after this silence, there seemed to be a depressing atmosphere in the air, which made people feel very heavy.

Some of these people raised their heads high, staring intently at the gradually thinning red mist.

Some people huddled in the corner, their faces filled with unrelieved fear and panic.

There were also some people whose eyes were full of vigilance and hostility, looking at others with unfriendly eyes.

However, compared with these people, Li Zhi and Fang Jie seemed particularly calm. They both seemed to really not care about what was happening in front of them. They just sat there.

There was still a meaningful smile on Fang Jie's lips, and his eyes wandered in the darkness outside, as if he was thinking about something.

Li Zhi closed his eyes, as if he was resting, or as if he was waiting for something to happen.

Time passed minute by minute, as the red fog that enveloped everyone was gradually eroded and became thinner, the depressing atmosphere reached its peak at this moment.

Sudden.

A pretty woman seemed unable to bear the pressure and couldn't help crying.

The crying sound attracted everyone's attention, even Li Zhi and Fang Jie looked towards her.

When Li Zhi turned his head to look over there, Wang Qi behind him showed a fierce look in his eyes.

A trace of ferocity flashed in his eyes. He exerted force on his feet, stepped on the ground, and rushed towards Li Zhi like a cannonball.

He stretched out his arm with his five fingers spread out, and his palms were covered with thick calluses. It was obvious that Wang Qi's hand skills must be quite good.

The timing and angle of Wang Qi's attack were extremely tricky, and also extremely decisive and swift.

This made Li Zhi completely unaware and unable to take any precautions.

Just as Wang Qi was about to slap Li Zhi, he couldn't help showing a look of joy on his face. Although Li Zhi had revealed a good aura when he shocked the old woman just now, this was not a fair fight. He was confident that if Li Zhi was caught off guard, he would definitely be seriously injured if not killed.

However, just when Wang Qi was about to succeed, things suddenly changed. His body seemed to be pulled by an invisible force and stopped in mid-air.

The smile on Wang Qi's face disappeared instantly, replaced by surprise and disbelief. He stared with his eyes wide open, not understanding why his attack was suddenly interrupted and why he felt like he was restrained.

At this moment, the black sword placed across Li Zhi's legs was suddenly unsheathed!

A black light suddenly appeared, shining like a black lightning.

"Pfft!"

A head, still filled with shock and confusion, soared into the sky!
