Zhou Wen and Li Xuan hurriedly went over and pulled the lunatic's hand, hoping to pull him out of the door.
When they went over, the two of them were already very careful. They didn't cross the threshold. As long as they didn't cross the threshold, it wouldn't be considered as entering the temple's trial.
However, just as Zhou Wen held the lunatic's hand, he felt a strange force coming from the Trajectory Holy Temple, forcefully pulling him in.
Zhou Wen immediately felt that something was amiss. He and Li Xuan had clearly held the lunatic's hand at the same time, but neither of them had crossed the threshold. Why was Li Xuan fine, but he was pulled into the door by a force?
Li Xuan reached out to pull Zhou Wen, but it was already too late. After Zhou Wen was sucked into the door, with a bang, the door to the Trajectory Holy Temple automatically closed, isolating Li Xuan outside.
Seeing that he and the lunatic had been locked in the door, Zhou Wen pulled the lunatic and turned to walk to the back. Typically, even if the trial had already begun, one could choose to withdraw.
However, when Zhou Wen turned around, he was stunned. There was no stone door behind him. Not only was there no stone door, but there was nothing at a glance. There was only a road that led straight into the distance. At the end of the road was the blue sky and white clouds.
Zhou Wen turned his body 360 degrees and immediately realized that he and the lunatic were standing at a crossroads. All four directions were straight roads that led to the horizon. Apart from the roads, there was nothing else but an endless grassland.
The temple and the stone walls didn't exist at all.
"What's going on? Is the test to let us choose a path? But the roads are the same in all four directions. How can we choose? Do you need to give us some hints? "Zhou Wen shouted at the sky.
There was definitely a creature in the temple controlling everything. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been pulled in. However, Zhou Wen didn't hear any response after waiting for a while.
At that moment, the unconscious lunatic woke up. He rubbed his head and sat up. Then, he sized up his surroundings with a puzzled expression.
"What is this place?" the lunatic didn't look crazy as he asked.
"Haven't you already been in the Trajectory Holy Temple twice?" Zhou Wen looked at him with an odd expression. This was because he had clearly blinded his eyes, but they were now intact.
This is the Trajectory Holy Temple? Isn't there a ship in the Trajectory Holy Temple? " The madman wore a look of surprise as he stared at Zhou Wen suspiciously, as though he was trying to determine if Zhou Wen was telling the truth.
"You saw a ship when you entered the Trajectory Holy Temple?" Zhou Wen felt that something was amiss. If the ship was really an illusion that the lunatic had seen, he reckoned that it would be difficult for him to get anything out of the lunatic.
"Yes, it's a ship." When the ship was mentioned, the expression on Madman's face began to change again, but fortunately, it didn't explode like before.
Zhou Wen hurriedly changed the topic and pointed at the anchor tattoo on his arm. "This tattoo of yours is rather interesting. Does it have any special meaning?"
Madman seemed very confused and subconsciously answered, "This was tattooed by my dad when I was young. He was a sailor, and he said that this was the symbol of his ship. When I grow up, I can become a sailor like him and work on his ship."
"Is there still a profession like a sailor?" Zhou Wen asked in puzzlement. According to what he knew, no ship had dared to go into the sea in recent decades. Even if someone did, it would be an Epic expert driving a Companion Beast. There was no need for a ship, much less a sailor.
"Yes, why not? Our hometown has many fishing boats. We go out to sea every day to fish. However, my dad's ship is a little different. It's a ship that travels long distances. It passes through many countries and sells different goods in different countries." The madman looked much more clear-headed.
"Wait, did you say countries?" Zhou Wen stared at the madman with an odd expression, wanting to confirm if he was fooling him.
Countries were a concept before the dimensional storms. After the dimensional storms, there was only the Federation and no countries. Humans had united to survive the calamity.
"That's right. Is there something wrong?" The madman looked at Zhou Wen in surprise as though what he said was only right.
"Brother, how old are you?" Zhou Wen asked.
"Seventeen, why are you asking this?" the madman asked in puzzlement.
"Then you must be joking with me, right? After the dimensional storms, how can there be any countries? The sea is filled with dimensional zones. No one dares to go into the sea, much less fish. It's already not bad if they aren't eaten by fish, "Zhou Wen said.
"What do you mean? What Federation? What dimensional storms? " The way the madman looked at Zhou Wen was the same as how he had looked at him previously. It was as though he was looking at a lunatic.
"Alright, don't tell me that you were born before the dimensional storms." Zhou Wen frowned at the madman, feeling that this person was messing with him. Perhaps he wasn't crazy from the beginning.
However, the madman looked at Zhou Wen seriously and said, "I don't know what you mean. My name is Ah Lai. I was born in Langya Town not far from the sea. I came here to … to …"
At this point, Ah Lai was stunned as though he couldn't remember why he had come here.
Zhou Wen didn't know if this person was really crazy or faking it, so he asked, "How do you know about the Holy Land and how did you come here?"
"What Holy Land? Isn't this the Six Dao Temples?" Ah Lai asked curiously.
"Six Dao Temples?" Zhou Wen was also dumbfounded. He felt like he was communicating with an alien, and he had no idea what the other party was talking about.
"That's right. It's the Six Dao Temples. This is …" Ah Lai realized that he couldn't remember. He rubbed his head, but he still couldn't recall anything.
"You know that this is the Trajectory Holy Temple, right?" Zhou Wen asked again.
"That's right. This is one of the Six Dao Temples, the Trajectory Holy Temple," Ah Lai answered with certainty.
"Then do you still remember why you came here?" Zhou Wen continued asking.
Ah Lai thought for a moment as his expression gradually turned nasty. "I seem to remember that I followed Dad onto his ship, and then … and then … we encountered a storm … and then … and then …"
At this point, Ah Lai suddenly hugged his head and screamed. Soon, he fell to the ground and kept convulsing. After a while, he fainted again.
Zhou Wen checked his body and realized that he wasn't faking it. He had really fainted. His expression turned odd.
What's going on with this fellow? Could it be that he really … Impossible … He's only seventeen years old … Impossible … Zhou Wen looked at Ah Lai as countless thoughts flashed through his mind.
Ah Lai didn't wake up, so Zhou Wen had no choice but to think of a way to leave. However, all he could see was the straight road in four directions.
Zhou Wen summoned the Mutated Lotus Flower Ant and got it to carry Ah Lai in one direction.
