Chapter 202: The Same Beginning

When Si Ruo looked out the window, a self-deprecating smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "My father has always hoped to give birth to a boy to inherit the Demon Gate. I heard my mom say that my dad had been planning the boy's future in front of her countless times. ”

"It's a pity that the young master of the Demon Gate, who is nine out of ten, turned into the princess of the Demon Gate at the moment of birth. My father immediately named me Si Ruo, which shows how lost he was at that time. ”

Si Ruo smiled bitterly: "Although my father didn't wait for the young master of the Demon Gate he wanted, he still started his original plan, except that the master who taught martial arts was replaced by a woman, nothing else changed. ”

"I've been in a meritocracy since I was three years old. At that time, there were more than 30 children studying with me, and we lived together, grew up together, and were very close. ”

"On my sixteenth birthday, they celebrated my birthday together and gave me gifts. I think it was my happiest day. But the next day, my dad called us together and announced something. That is, more than 30 of us are enemies of life and death from now on, and within a year, only one of us can survive, and the person who survives is the young master of the Demon Gate. ”

"My dad said: There are no rules and no fairness in the competition between you. You can use any means, even for outside help, and if you can kill your companions, you will be the winner. ”

Si Ruo's body was trembling slightly, and although it had been so many years, I could still feel the fear in her heart.

I walked up and grabbed Si Ruo's hand: "Don't say it." ”

"Let me finish. Si Ruo said, "That day, none of us spoke, and we each left the conference room. That night, a friend came to me and told us that we couldn't kill each other, but after only one night, three of them died in the dormitory. ”

"At that time, the war between us broke out completely. The war between teenage kids is more brutal than any movie you've ever seen. Can you imagine that kind of scene?"

"More than 30 of us were locked up in an abandoned school, killing each other like a swarm of Gu worms, devouring our kind, and we couldn't escape if we wanted to. We have to be careful every day we live, but no matter how careful we are, we can't escape the calculations of our companions......"

Si Ruo said in a trembling voice, "I saw his relieved smile for the first time when I killed the last companion and walked up to my father covered in blood. That smile may be a reward for me, or it may be a recognition for me. ”

"At that time, my dad asked me what reward I wanted. I told him that I wanted to go to school and that I wanted to finish college like a normal person. My father's face was watery, but he never reversed what he said. He promised to let me finish my college life, and I went to the Liaoning Academy of Sciences under the pseudonym Dong Xiaowei, and I also met you. ”

Si Ruo reluctantly smiled: "Do you know what I relied on to convince my father this time? He promised me that he would let me finish college, but he delayed my graduation trip, so I had to get it back. He agreed. But he still ......"

I whispered, "No matter what the outcome of the trip is, as long as the two of us are together, it's our graduation trip." ”

"That's right!" Si Ruo finally smiled, "Then let's go find a clue...... No, let's start our trip!"

Si Ruo dragged me out of the hotel, and although I wanted to ask what the Eclipse was, I couldn't open my mouth. I really don't want to ruin this ephemeral beauty in Si Ruo's heart. At least until we find the clues to this trial, I can't spoil Si Ruo's mood.

I didn't speak, but Si Ruo spoke first: "We have to hurry." No matter how powerful a master is, as long as he is hit by the heart, his power will disappear quickly, and his muscles will die until he is paralyzed. ”

"Eroding hearts can't kill people, but it's more terrible than crane top red and peacock gall. We've got to hurry, and if we drag on a little longer, we'll be in more danger. ”

Si Ruo took a deep breath and said, "My father has always done what he says, and when he says he doesn't care about my life or death, he is not joking. Just like when I was fighting with my companion for the death, I almost died at the hands of my companion several times, but he never came out to save me. ”

"Don't think about it so much, let's see if there are any universities nearby. "I searched the map for a long time and finally found a local university. As I walked towards the school, I said, "If your father wants to recreate the scene, it must be a graduation trip." However, if the Divine Explorer has swept a group of innocent students into the path of Divine Exploration in this way, isn't he afraid that someone will die?"

Si Ruo explained: "The Divine Exploration Hand is different from the Demon Gate and the Ghost No Sect. The Demon Sect and the Ghostless Sect never care about the consequences, and dare to use any conspiracy methods, even if they implicate more innocents, they are not in their consideration. ”

"In addition to exploring the forbidden area of mythology, the detective has another important task to protect the innocent. The Detectives will never allow innocent things to happen in front of their eyes, otherwise, no matter how well they complete their tasks, or how much they have done their feats, they will be severely punished and even executed on the spot. ”

I couldn't help but frown: "Can they guarantee that nothing will happen?"

"Yes. Si Ruo nodded and said, "Every time you prepare for a disciple trial, you have to follow at least five or more masters behind you, and some people even directly put on makeup and blend into the team to ensure the safety of innocent people." However, the disciples who participated in the trial did not know this. ”

I was surprised, "But we obviously didn't have a detective hand around that time." They were intercepted and killed by the Demon Gate?"

Si Ruo said bluntly: "We originally arranged a group of blood guards to intercept and kill the Divine Explorer, but our people didn't come in handy. Because of that trial, the Divine Explorer did not arrange for anyone to answer it. That's what I've always found weird. The Snow Demon Fox didn't tell you?"

"Nope. "It's not that I don't believe in the fox mother, but this incident will inevitably make people suspicious. I felt more and more that the trials in the Lonely Mountain Cave were a conspiracy, a conspiracy against me. The person who laid out the layout shouldn't be the fox mother, right?

As I walked forward with my head down, I heard someone shouting, "Classmate...... Are you a graduate this year?"

When I turned around, I saw a playful and cute girl with pink hair walking over: "Classmate, are you new graduates? Would you like to sign up for a free trip?"

Si Ruo and I glanced at each other, and nodded at the same time, "Yes!"

The girl smiled and said, "I have a travel invitation here, as long as you pass the assessment, you can participate." The registration location is the car travel agency on the street in front. ”

I took the flyer in the girl's hand and looked at it: take you to explore Penglai Wonderland, reveal the secret of Xu Fu's road to immortals, boys and girls are paired to participate, and enjoy five-star service for free.

After reading it, I couldn't help but laugh and said, "It's a gimmick to explore Penglai Wonderland, right? ”

"If I had said that I was a virgin, would you still be able to test it? If anyone dared to come up and test me, wouldn't I be afraid that I would sue you for violating human rights?"

The girl also smiled: "I don't know about this, I was hired by a travel agency to distribute flyers." However, there is a real thing to verify, and good luck to you. ”

After the girl finished speaking, she turned away, and I waited for her to go away before saying, "Can finding Penglai Immortal Island be used as a primary task?"

"No way. Si Ruo directly denied, "Finding the three immortal mountains on the sea is a heaven-level task. Finding the mystery of Xu Fu's immortal elixir is also a heaven-level task. If you put the two together, it's a god-level mission. ”

I couldn't help frowning and said, "Isn't the mythical forbidden area divided into four levels: 'Heaven, Earth, Xuan, and Yellow'?

The level of the Detective Hand quest corresponds to the level of the forbidden area, and Yu Feng told me that the forbidden area is only divided into four levels.

Si Ruo shook his head and said, "There is also a god-level forbidden area above the heaven-level forbidden area. Because the god-level forbidden area involves ancient mythology, even the patriarchs in the hands of the god explorers dare not touch it easily, so the average god-level probe does not know the existence of the god-level forbidden area, thinking that it is only heaven-level. But ......"

Si Ruo changed his words and said, "However, many people know about the so-called god-level mission. A true god-level task is at least five times more difficult than the heaven-level, or even higher. ”

"The so-called god-level tasks that are well-known in the hands of the god are just superimposed on the heaven-level tasks. It's like this ......."

Si Ruoyang raised the leaflet in his hand: "Finding the mystery of Xu Fu's immortal elixir is a heaven-level task in itself, but Penglai Immortal Island is also listed as a heaven-level forbidden area. Entering the heaven-level forbidden area to complete another heaven-level task is equivalent to superimposing the difficulty of the task, which is the so-called god-level task, or sub-god-level task. ”

Si Ruo continued to explain: "Even if it is a first-grade probe master, it is difficult to complete a sub-god-level task, and this kind of task will never appear in the assessment of the preparatory disciples. I guess this should be the Ecstasy Array deliberately created by the Detective Hand Headquarters in order to make it more difficult for newcomers!"

I was surprised, "And there is such a statement?"

"Absolutely. Si Ruo said, "For example, I deliberately gave you a fake clue and asked you to look down according to the clue, if you can't turn the corner, your assessment will be considered a failure." This is actually a test of the newcomer's analytical and judgmental skills. After all, as a qualified detective, the mind is the first, and the skill is a bit secondary. ”

Si Ruo looked at me and said, "The outstanding people of the Divine Exploration Hand are all human spirits, and stupid people will never be able to advance to the high-grade Divine Exploration Hand. Just like you. ”

"Thanks for the compliment. I walked around the corner with a blank face.
