ICE & FIRE IMMORTALITY
ANOTHER ILLUSION

"Could ... Forgetit. I'm so tired. I really want to rest. We've been fighting out of the mud all day. Aren't you guys tired? If you don't want to rest, you can take a walk out. Don't bother me," Jia Rong said as he cupped his arm.

No one responded to Jia Rong's words. Jia Yun and Jia Rong remained standing in place. Both of them looked worried, while Jia Rong casually closed his eyes, just to rest because of fatigue, he said.

"Jia Yun," call Yi Cai.

"Eh?" jia Yun Sahut.

"What's wrong? Is something wrong?" ask Yi Cai.

"There is no problem whatsoever," Jia Yun replied without looking at Yi Cai's face. "Yi Cai," call Jia Yun.

"Yes, what's wrong?" answer Yi Cai.

"Do you want to go out for a look?" Request availability from Yi Cai.

"good. I'm also curious about the situation out there" Yi Cai replied.

The two of them stepped their feet out of the house, leaving Jia Rong lying inside alone.

When the two of them came out of the house, they were shocked by the sighting of the village that changed drastically from before. The village that was once very quiet, has now turned into a bustling with its inhabitants.

Jia Yun and Yi Cai were stunned when they saw the look they were supposed to see during the day, changing at night. Meanwhile, they realized clearly that no one inhabited the houses in the village.

"What is all this?" mumble Jia Yun. "Yi Cai, didn't I look wrong? Is there something wrong with my vision? Why is this village suddenly crowded? Did you see that too?" jia Yun asked.

"It's like a dream. It can't be all this ... Could it be that we are fascinated by illusions again?" thought Yi Cai.

Jia Yun started to be alert and noon with the surroundings. "Can be. Whatever it is, everything in this village cannot be easily trusted. Everything is a ruse" Jia Yun said.

"Then, why did you take me out and leave Jia Rong alone inside, if you knew that everything in this village could threaten danger? Did you leave him on purpose? Or ... There's something you can't say in front of him?" ask Yi Cai. He had started seriously at the stage of the real discussion.

Within him, Jia Yun was extremely worried about Jia Rong's condition. However, he did not want to be careless so as not to make the safety of his brother threatened. Therefore, he deliberately did something unreasonable so that his actions were not easily suspected.

"Yi Cai," call Jia Yun.

"Aren't you able to guess why I asked him trivial questions before?" Jia Yun's question was deliberately to test Yi Cai's responsiveness.

"really. We are twin brothers. Since childhood we grew up together. It is impossible if we do not know what we like, and what we do not like. As for Jia Rong, he did not like peaches. Every time I brought peaches, he would have quickly asked me to get rid of them. He had the trauma of eating peaches. When he was a child, because he ate peaches, he suddenly became nauseous and fell ill. We ate 2 different fruits. Apparently, hers touched a poisonous plant that could make her nauseous and poisoned. Jia Rong fell ill from eating the poisonous peach. That was why, from then on, every time he saw a peach, he must have quickly told anyone to get rid of it," Jia Yun explained at length.

Based on the story that Yi Cai listened to, the reason Jia Yun told them all must be related to Jia Rong that they saw at this time.

There was indeed a slight strangeness in Jia Rong. He would definitely not be silent alone just because he was tired and wanted to rest. After Yi Cai recalled, he finally understood why Jia Yun told him all those things.

It turned out, because the answer from Jia Rong was opposite to the story told by Jia Yun. As he remembered, Jia Rong previously said that the taste of peaches was sweet and fresh.

"Jia Yun! You mean, he's not Jia Rong? Possibly ... He's just an illusion?" Finally Yi Cai understood with a strange detail that stuck up.

"He's not Jia Rong. But, it seems like he is not an illusion. You see! All the people we see today are illusions. However, illusions also have their weaknesses" Jia Yun said. "Yi Cai, try to greet them, or not, you touch their bodies" Jia Yun ordered.

Without asking much, Yi Cai also applied Jia Yun's words. He walked over to one of the villagers around him.

"Excuse me?" greet Yi Cai to one of the villagers who was right next to him at this moment.

"Yes, what's wrong?" The villagers ignored the greeting from Yi Cai.

"Come ... ." For a moment Yi Cai did not continue his words. He just touched the people's arm. Instantly, when he touched her, her form disappeared from his sight.

Jia Yun who was watching him from a distance, rushed over to Yi Cai.

He looked at Yi Cai while looking at him with a gaze full of seriousness. He spoke up, "How? Do you understand?" jia Yun asked.

"So, is it true that all these people who are in this village are just illusions? Illusions are not created by themselves. Someone must have deliberately made it in such a way, as a means of trap. Who is that guy? And what was the purpose of making this illusion? And ... Is Jia Rong also just an illusion?" Yi Cai was completely inexhaustible.

Never had he encountered an illusion created with spiritual energy as strong as the one they were currently facing. While Jia Yun just fell silent, and looked desperate while thinking about the words said by Yi Cai.

"It's true that all this is an illusion. But what I am concerned about is not the Jia Rong problem that we see illusions or not, but I am more worried about his condition. I don't know if she's okay. We lost track of him, we got separated from him. There are too many traps in this village. We should not be discouraged and underestimate it. Overnight outside and hunting spirit monsters overnight seemed to be better than settling in a quiet place that had many supernatural devices like this. I wonder what that fucker is eating. What is he doing, so that he can be separated from us," said Jia Yun.

Jia Yun was not a person who spoke much. But this time he spoke more than usual. If he had started to talk a lot, it meant that he had indeed really shown an attitude of worry towards something.

If before, Jia Yun would rather follow the instructions of others than give his opinion. However, having lost track of Jia Rong, he could not match his logic.

"Jia Yun be careful!" Yi Cai pushed Jia Yun away.
