Beauty and the Bodyguard

Chapter 6141


6141 One wrong step, one wrong step, one wrong step

With her talent, it wasn’t hard for her to learn the fire. After Lin Yi finished, she just pondered for a while and quickly formed it.

A genius was a genius. If he couldn’t figure it out, it meant that he didn’t have a direction. With a little guidance, he could see the light.

Making this recipe didn’t require much of the spirit sense fire-it was enough as long as it could be formed. Li Zao Yi’s confidence increased-she might not be able to make Mystic level three with her own strength, but with Lin Yi’s help, her chances of success were at least 50%.

Once the pill was formed, it would be of great help to li Zao Yi in alchemy. When her strength increased, it would be easy for her to refine Mystic level third grade alone.

“There’s still time. I’ll study the pill recipe and the use of the consciousness pill fire. ” Li Zao Yi was very excited. She knew that it wasn’t a good time to start concocting pills, so she suggested to study the pill recipe again to calm her mood.

Naturally, Lin Yi didn’t have any problems with that and let lizao Yi Do her research. He and LAN Guzha searched around the space.

Compared to the previous floor, the space here was much smaller. If the five blade lights appeared in this space, Lin Yi’s ghost speed wings and lightning escape would be restricted. The area of movement was too small.

On the other side, Zheng dongjue and Zheng Tianqing had already been expelled from the steps. They had tried a few times, but they could not stand firm at the eighth step at most. Looking at the high 18 steps, the two of them had almost fallen into despair.

“Second Grandpa, are we just going to go back like this? There were precious treasures in the ruins! Even if we can’t get it, we can’t let that Lin Yi get it!” Zheng Tianqing said through gritted teeth. If it wasn’t for his lack of strength, he would’ve attacked Lin Yi with the blade light.

As for whether or not Lin Yi saved their lives, that wasn’t important at all!

“Tian Qing, wait, don’t be anxious. Let me think!” Zheng dongjue raised his hand and gently waved it twice. Then, he paced back and forth below the steps with his hands behind his back.

After a short while, Zheng dongjue’s eyes lit up as if he had thought of something. He clapped his hands and said,””There it is! I didn’t understand the meaning of these words before. Maybe they’re used in this place!”

“Second Grandpa, what did you remember? Hurry up and tell me!” Zheng Tianqing couldn’t wait any longer. Lin Yi and the others had been up there for a while. If they didn’t follow, who knew if they would be able to find them?

“Do you remember that there were 18 short incantations in the record? It seems inexplicable?” Zheng dongjue smiled smugly. The eighteen pithy formulas corresponded to eighteen steps! Although he had not tried it yet, he was at least 90% sure that it would not be wrong!

“Eighteen short pithy formulas?” Zheng Tianqing was slightly stunned. He immediately searched his memory. At their level, their memory was extremely powerful, and having a photographic memory was only the most basic ability. So, he quickly recalled what Zheng dongjue had said,”One on the right, three, two on the left, four, three on the left, three?”

“That’s right. If I’m not wrong, there’s a point on these steps that doesn’t have any repulsive force. And this point is the short incantations mentioned in the records!”

“That makes sense! Then how do we determine the position of one on the right, three on the right, two on the left, four on the left, and so on?” Zheng Tianqing’s eyes were getting brighter and brighter. He felt that this deduction was very likely to be true. In this case, it would be much easier to go up.

“It doesn’t matter. Even if we try one by one, we can still test it out!” Zheng dongjue laughed out loud, full of energy. However, this stupid method obviously wouldn’t satisfy Zheng Tianqing, who was in a hurry to catch up with Lin Yi.

“Second Grandpa, did you notice? In other words, each step is divided into ten parts, five on the left and five on the right. One on the right is the third part on the right of the first step, and two on the left is the fourth part on the left of the second step!” Zheng Tianqing pondered for a moment before a smile appeared on his face.

Zheng Tianqing was quite smart, or he wouldn’t have planned to deal with Lin Yi on the northernmost Island. Compared to Zheng dongjue’s suggestion of trying it out bit by bit, his idea was more practical.

“That makes sense! Tian Qing, you’re really smart, let’s quickly try it!” Zheng dongjue nodded heavily and looked at Zheng Tianqing with eyes full of admiration.

One to the right and three to the right were very easy to identify. After dividing the steps in the middle, the right side once again divided into three points. Zheng dongjue took a step forward, and as expected, he did not feel the slightest force of rejection!

“Success! It really is like this!” Zheng dongjue laughed out loud. There was no force of rejection at all. Wasn’t it possible to climb up the 18 steps in the blink of an eye? He couldn’t help but feel proud when he thought about Lin Yi and the others working so hard.

Unfortunately, he didn’t know that these steps were specially used by the master of the monument as a trial. Using this kind of opportunistic method and relying on their own strength to climb up, how could they end up with the same treatment?

“Second Grandpa, quickly try the position of the second step! As long as we can confirm the second level, we can’t be wrong about the rest!” Zheng Tianqing did not follow because the steps were divided into ten parts, and each part was only enough for one person to stand on. If he went any further, he would have to go to the other part.

“No problem!” Zheng dongjue jumped lightly and stepped toward the two to the left and the four he had determined. However, there was a slight deviation in the air and he could not completely stand in the predetermined position.

A repulsive force even stronger than that of the second stage emerged out of thin air. Although it was not enough to push Zheng dongjue away, it still surprised him. It seemed that he could not make any mistakes with each step, or else the exemption from the previous steps would be multiplied and explode at the end. It did not matter for the first few steps, but if such a mistake occurred in the last dozen steps, Zheng dongjue doubted whether he would be able to survive.

After resisting the repulsive force, Zheng dongjue slowly moved his position, looking for the point where there was no repulsive force. However, no matter how he moved inch by inch, he could not find the point where the second was left and the fourth was left.

“Second Grandpa, I understand now. The first wrong step will cause the safe spot to disappear. That’s why you can’t find it!” Zheng Tianqing saw Zheng dongjue moving around on the second step and knew that his attempt had failed.

He deliberately walked the wrong way on the first level and then returned to the three positions on the right. He immediately understood what was going on, so he called Zheng dongjue back.

As long as he took the wrong path, there was no need to continue!
