Looking for you in reincarnation

"Yeah." He responded lightly, then stopped and followed the compass needle, looking at a huge rock not far from the roadside, his eyes cold.

"What's wrong?" Seeing him like that, Si He couldn't help but ask him curiously, but he didn't say anything. He just took the compass and probed in several directions. Although he was wearing a mask and her expression couldn't be seen, she could feel the coldness emanating from him at this moment, which made her tense up and look at him with wide eyes.

After a while, he put away the compass and said to her, "Let's go."

"Oh." Si He responded and followed him, asking, "Cousin, did you find anything?"

"Yeah." He still responded lightly, then walked down the official road and headed towards the forest opposite.

Si He was so curious that she couldn't help but feel itchy, but he was very frugal with words and said nothing, so she had no choice but to shut up and follow him.

After entering the forest, Ning Ji climbed directly upwards. Si He didn't know his intention, so she had to follow him silently.

It was not until she reached halfway up the mountain that the roars from the Stone Village behind her became even more severe, and she turned around and looked back.

It turns out that standing here you can see clearly everything that happens at the foot of the mountain. The view is very good and the entire Stone Village is in sight.

At this time, a lot of fire was set in Shitou Village, and there were raging fires and thick smoke everywhere.

The poisoned villagers were burned by the flames, wailing and screaming. Some fell to the ground and rolled over in pain, while others bumped and ran around like headless flies. It was a horrible sight.

Si He withdrew her gaze reluctantly, turned around, and continued to follow Ning Ji upstairs.

After a while, Ning Ji stood on a rock halfway up the mountain and looked down. The view here was wider.

He was also watching everything in Stone Village, his eyes calm and composed, as if he was used to seeing life and death.

Si He stood aside, looked at him, then looked at the village at the foot of the mountain, feeling a little confused.

The autumn wind blew, whistling and blowing coldly. The wind blew the fire in the village even more fiercely. The village was a sea of ​​fire. The flames enveloped the houses, a bright red. The mountains and forests on the side were also illuminated by the fire, adding a touch of brilliant color.

On the outskirts of the village, there are disciples of the immortal sect guarding at a distance, keeping an eye on the movements in the village. Some have already started performing rituals to help the villagers to be liberated.

At this time, Ning Ji took out the compass again and probed in several directions.

Si He stared at him curiously, but the mask on his face was too tight, so she could only see his cold eyes and tightly pursed lips, and he seemed to be in poor condition.

"boom!"

Suddenly, there was a shocking explosion in the village that was burning. The sound was deafening and flames shot up into the sky. It was in the center of the village, and it seemed that something was burning.

Si He's gaze turned to the village again. At this time, after the explosion just now, the sky above the village was filled with thick smoke, and it was dark.

Ning Ji saw this and took out a small medicine bottle from his pocket, poured out two small pills, and handed one to Si He, "Anti-poison pill, take it immediately."

Si He looked at the small green pill in his hand. Although she was a little surprised, she still reached out and took one and put it in her mouth. The medicine tasted strong and bitter. She frowned slightly and swallowed it immediately.

Ning Ji also ate the pill in his hand, then put away the medicine bottle and looked back at the village at the foot of the mountain.

The village at the foot of the mountain was engulfed in flames and thick smoke. All the disciples of the immortal sect were guarding the periphery to prevent the fire from spreading outside, and at the same time to prevent the villagers who had been burned into ashes from escaping.

The autumn wind continued to blow, which made the fire more intense and also dispersed some of the billowing smoke, making the air in the mountains and forests filled with the unpleasant smell of smoke. Many disciples of the immortal sect were choked by the thick smell of smoke and coughed.

Si He and Ning Ji were fine as they were a little far away and at a height that allowed them to avoid the billowing smoke, so the smell was much lighter and not choking.

"Cousin, is this cigarette not right?"

At this moment, even if Si He didn't understand, she could tell something was wrong. But Ning Ji didn't reply to her. He just said, "Stay here and don't wander around. I'll be back soon."

After saying that, he took out a dagger for her to defend herself, then turned around and ran quickly towards the forest beside him.

Si He held the dagger in her hand in a daze. When she came to her senses, he had already walked away.

"boom!"

There was another deafening explosion in the village, which startled her. She turned around and saw a thicker black smoke rising from the village again. The billowing smoke submerged the forest at the foot of the mountain. The thick smoke filled the air, and everything she saw was dark. She could only vaguely see the outlines of the village and the forest.

Now, those people outside the village were not only choked, but they couldn't even open their eyes. The smoke brought out their tears. Many people couldn't stand it and retreated one after another, away from the forest.

But when they were retreating, those people were attacked by something unknown, screaming in fear, followed by the sound of fighting.

Si He clenched the dagger in her hand, watching the movement below the mountain with vigilance, and then occasionally glanced in the direction where Ning Ji left, wondering what happened below the mountain? And where Ning Ji was doing?

The fighting at the foot of the mountain continued and was scattered. In some places, the fighting stopped midway and no one knew whether the people were dead or alive.

The sky was getting darker and darker, with dark clouds gathering and heavy rain approaching.

Si He looked around and found no place to hide from the rain. Moreover, the situation at the foot of the mountain was in chaos, so she didn't dare to walk around.

After a while, heavy rain came from far away and poured down.

Si He had no choice but to pull the cloth wrapped around her head to block the rain as much as possible. However, the rain was too heavy, and the cloth was of no use at all. Soon, she was soaked.

The burning village at the foot of the mountain was gradually extinguished by the torrential rain, and the thick black smoke also dissipated a little. However, the rain was heavy at this time, and the mist was very heavy, so the visibility was still very poor and hazy.

After a while, the fighting at the foot of the mountain had stopped, leaving only the sound of rushing rain.

But Si He remained tense and alert to her surroundings. She did not dare to relax because of the incident at the foot of the mountain.

The rain kept falling, and she stood there waiting for who knows how long, her whole body wet and cold.

At this time, the little snake in her sleeve poked its head out and looked at the heavy rain around it. Finally, it stared at the village at the foot of the mountain, and its tongue extended from time to time, with unclear meaning.

Seeing this, Si He also looked down the mountain, but helplessly, she could not see anything clearly.

When the rain subsided a little, Ning Ji came back.

He walked out of the rain, as calm as ever, with a steady pace, just like when they went up the mountain together before, but Si He keenly noticed the faint coldness and imperceptible murderous aura emanating from him.

She seemed to have caught a glimpse of his unknown side, and felt that he was somewhat dangerous, but inexplicably, she was not afraid of him.
