356 STOP-2: New Purgatory City: "Draw the Sword and Hesitate"

-Minshuo's subconscious-

04：22 AM

"It's too much. Minseok said.

Minseok looked at the smoke, then at Suhyang, and then at his chest, the knife was stuck in it, and the blood was still oozing out of the skin, bright red blood, strange, it didn't hurt at all.

"You earthlings, but you're too timid. It didn't hurt at all, it wasn't dangerous at all, but I was still scared. The woman said even more disdainfully.

"I don't know if you're too bold or I'm too timid, I don't think this wound in front of me is fake. Minseok argued.

"Oh?" the woman's voice was defiant.

"Even if it's any trick you use, or what special anesthetic you use, so that I don't feel any pain at all, I don't think it's all an illusion. There is no 'nothing becoming' in the world, only 'something becomes nothing'. No matter how powerful the magic is, it is like a pair of medicines, and there must always be a primer for the medicine. I don't know what method you're using right now. But how can there be any reason to conjure something out of thin air? ”

"Of course you don't know. Well, if you pull it out yourself, you can ask me a question, and I'll tell you what you really want to do, and answer your question. The woman's voice became gentle, as if to lure Min-seok into agreeing.

"Okay, I'll try. Min Suk said.

Minseok didn't know what the purpose of this woman was, and what was the point of her doing this.

I don't know what this knife is made of, why do you have to pull it out yourself?

If you are not injured, what is the difference between pulling out the knife yourself and someone else?

Could it be that this is really some kind of ritual?

Or is there something wrong with it?

......

I don't know.

Minseok couldn't figure it out.

But we can't pass up this precious opportunity to know what I really want.

"Leave him alone. Minseok thought.

Strange things appeared one after another.

First, the metal rings.

After it is a wooden stick.

It's the Moon Gate again.

Now it's the time portal.

Purple smoke followed.

And the smoke, but it made a sound.

Yes—a voice in the dark.

"This voice loves to have a purpose, so it can be changed without changing. Minseok thought.

However, Minseok felt that he had achieved his goal, and that was enough.

At first, seeing the smoke surrounding him, he thought it was a delusion.

Later, when he found out that the smoke was real, he became worried.

Xiuxiang couldn't sleep for some reason. And the smoke surrounded her. Minseok remembered what he had seen at the beginning.

"What does smoke have to do with Xiuxiang?" Minshuo thought.

"Smoke keeps saying that he wants to kill people, and he also says that he wants to kill Xiuxiang, is it a bluff or is there really cause and effect?"

"Just don't want to, when every second counts, how can you have the energy to think a lot?" Minseok decided.

"It's unfounded. The woman said, "Don't procrastinate, time waits for no one." ”

It seems that the woman is also in a hurry.

He thought, "It's always good to do it yourself." Even if it's really hurt, it's good. It's always good to be able to distract from the smoke. ”

Because the smoke surrounds Xiuxiang, he is always uneasy, it seems that Xiuxiang is full of danger, and this panicked thought has no root, almost from his own rhapsody, but it just makes him worry about it, and he has been uneasy.

"Don't rush me, don't you allow me to be mentally prepared?" Minseok said with a deliberately trembling voice.

"Try, try. The woman said with a smile.

Minseok looked at the knife on his chest, it didn't hurt or itch, it was like sticking it in a cabbage or a radish, and it didn't feel real.

I touched it, and it was like I didn't touch it at all.

"It's far from the heart. Min Suk comforted himself, took two or three deep breaths, and finally took the knife in his hand.

"Cool. Minshuo couldn't help but speak.

"Don't let go. Don't. The woman said excitedly, as if the sensitive movements made the woman particularly satisfied.

It's cool. It's like covering a popsicle, and it's still the kind of popsicle with ice ballast hanging on the outside.

Min Suk used his strength, grasped the knife in his hand tighter, and gently pulled it out.

"This knife looks like it is inserted into one's own body, but in fact it looks like it is inserted into the body of a person in the distance. Minseok wondered why this was happening.

"A normal person's body, even the exertion he just had, or even only half of the strength just now, should also cause heart-rending pain. The knife is stuck in the flesh, and even if the wind blows and the blade trembles slightly, it will definitely be painful. Min Suk thought, "I've acted like I've been injured before." That's right, it's impossible to feel painless, even the anesthetic can't achieve this effect, and the anesthetic at least has a sense of touch, which doesn't even have a little bit of touch, why?"

Min Shuo looked at the purple smoke in front of him, as if he was in a state of impatience, so with these thoughts, he pulled out the knife little by little.
