"The more empty the hourglass of fate seemed, the more intense and interesting my pain became, and my whole heart drifted away from the world I knew. I hate the curtain as much as a child who longs to see a play, like a person who resents something that hinders it......"*

The man's voice sounded, as if reciting poetry.

The other people who suddenly appeared suddenly made Lin Ziyue wipe away her more and more tears in a panic, she choked and raised her head, but she was so shocked by the sight of someone in front of her that she hiccuped in her throat.

The black slim-fitting suit, the cloak behind him like flowing ink, was constantly and slowly fluttering, as if urging him to leave.

The man stood in front of Lin Ziyue, a half-black and half-white mask was hexagram on his forehead, with the string moon under the black eye and a black rose under the white eye.

The man's appearance is not delicate, but the five official righteousness, although there is some long-term majesty brought by the rigor, but the abyss-like eyes, at this time, look back at Lin Ziyue gently and dotingly, he holds a black skull cane in his hand, but the connection between the skull and the cane body is surrounded by a circle of black rose petals, because the cane is completely black, if you don't look carefully, it is almost imperceptible.

The man in front of him must be a very familiar person, and he should be very familiar with his dress and appearance.

But why can't I remember it myself?

He was still looking at himself, but Lin Ziyue always felt that he was looking at someone else.

The man spoke again, and continued the poem, his magnetic voice inexplicably reassuring and convincing: "The cold truth is finally revealed: I die without suddenness, and a terrible dawn hangs over me. Is that all?"

He leaned over and bowed deeply to Lin Ziyue, and the thick inky cloak behind him suddenly wrapped him, enveloping his figure, making his voice become erby: "The curtain has been lifted, and I am still looking forward to it." ”

Lin Ziyue was shocked, and suddenly pounced, reaching out to grab this figure-

But what her fingers touched, there were only soft, slightly warm black petals, so slender that it seemed that if she pushed harder, it would crumble into pieces, Lin Ziyue clenched the outstretched hand, and those petals were instantly crushed into pieces, falling from her palms one after another.

This feeling of not being able to grasp is very similar.

Similar to what?

In Lin Ziyue's teeth, two words fell out.

"Memories. ”

She suddenly noticed that the man's cane was still there, diagonally inserted into the ground one step away from her, and the black skull on it seemed to cross time and space, carrying his will, staring at herself.

Lin Ziyue subconsciously stretched out her hand and held the cane.

But the moment she touched the staff, it turned into black petals, scattered all over the ground.

Lin Ziyue's hand held a flower branch.

It was smooth and thornless, as soft as skin, and all the petals were scattered.

Only the last piece remained, so tenacious that it stopped on the receptacle, as if waiting for her heart's voice.

It was like waiting for her to pull the curtain on.

The petals trembled slightly, and Lin Ziyue heard a voice from above, it was the man's voice.

"Lin Ziyue, this is my last chance for you. If you want to go back to your old life now, it's still too late. ”

"You've forgotten everything, and you're back in the same world. This last bit of power will be the last time to distort the plane, and I will choose it to replace your future, and you will no longer have anything to do with the illusory world. ”

"Now, please tell me your choice, this is the last time, you need to give me the answer. ”

Avoid, run away, retreat, return to the peaceful life that your heart desires?

Or ......

Once again, he worked hard, faced with hostility from all sides, and stood between heaven and earth.

Use your own will to pull the gears of fate that are constantly collapsing.

Even if all efforts may lead to death, struggle to break free from the chains on your body and see the end of the bloody flow.

Ah, I see.

It is to indulge in the past, to be greedy for happiness, and to be lazy in the ordinary.

Lin Ziyue put the black rose in front of her eyes, reached out, and ripped off the last petal.

The petals withered and turned to ashes in her palm.

She raised her hand and sprinkled the petals out.

It's like the one who wants to send away the past.

"I have important things to remember, and I want to remember those things. ”

Lin Ziyue's tone didn't seem to be speaking to the remnants of the black rose's power, but to herself.

Forgetting is not a substitute for what happened.

Time goes back and can't cut off the emotions I have for all these people and things.

Even if the memory is so brutally erased......

It doesn't make me change my mind!

She yelled, and the empty world she was in began to falter: "The turning point of my life began with this—"

I want to remember, I want to remember!

Such a strong will caused the black petals in front of Lin Ziyue to be blown up, and they trembled with her roar, and then kept beating in the wind for no reason, floating higher and higher.

"You don't want to take it all ——"

Like thunder in a storm, her cries echoed in this void space.

The black petals trembled even more, as if they heard her voice and knew her mind, and they were excited because of it.

I have met a lot of important people here, learned a lot of important things, and changed a lot.

What a sad thing to lose these and forget everything!?

The pain was like a flying swallow, passing in Lin Ziyue's eyes, cutting ripples. Let the aroused anger be brought to reason, and the resentment hidden in the emotions can be discerned by deep thoughts.

Anger also retreated.

So I have to remember, remember what I saw, what I thought, what I felt, and remember the intersection and separation of these lives, because they are the ones that support me now, standing here, roaring out my desires.

Lin Ziyue's mood gradually calmed down, and her gentle eyes lit up with black and white like the sun and the moon, intertwining and rotating endlessly.

She looked up again, smiling, confident looking like a diamond coated with light.

"Also, my memory...... It was mine. ”

She calmly spread out the declarative sentence, as if she had drawn a pen to the end of an extremely long paragraph.

No one can take it away, that's the most important thing that makes me who I am.

Lin Ziyue lifted the petalless receptacle in her hand, and then the petals that flew up instantly gathered and landed directly on the empty receptacle.

In the black light, the crescent moon appeared, the moonlight was gradually full and half swallowed by the darkness, and the green vines grew from the receptacle, and the turquoise replaced all the black petals, and the black twigs continued to extend, making a crisp sound of a thin sword into the sheath, and a layer of dark red patterns appeared and disappeared.

Black and white dots of light sprinkled from the top of the moon staff, forming a cycle of their own around Lin Ziyue, like a galaxy.

The anxiety in Lin Ziyue's eyes was dispelled calmly, and a name called "Xuanyuan Yu" appeared on her lips. Obviously, at this moment, she still can't remember what she has to do with that person, but she always feels ...... It's warm and a little heart-wrenching.

Lust is bound by love, and it is no longer confused.

She closed her eyes.

It's time to put an end to your own hesitation.

I always wonder if it would be better to go back in time, but I have no other way but to move forward.

Because that's what I choose to face.

It's my concern, and it's also my growth.

"Broken. ”

A word is like thunder, shattering thousands of illusions and returning memories to one's body.

Lin Ziyue's hair fluttered because of the air currents on the moon staff, like the night-like cloak behind C.

The black and white dots of light swayed, gathering between her hair, in patches, like a new crown glowing.

The empty white illusion continued to converge, as if it had been dispersed by a fog.

Lin Ziyue stood in the empty cabin again.

The sea water lapped against the porthole, as if it were a world away.

The hull of the ship suddenly jerked violently, and this time the strawberry kicked directly into the door, and his face was as cold as if he was about to kill.

Seeing Lin Ziyue standing quietly, a trace of surprise flashed in Strawberry's eyes: "You-"

Lin Ziyue's gaze was gentle, but there was a cold air in her words: "Actually, you and Xuanyuan Yan really didn't plan to let me pass the trial, right?"

Lin Ziyue knows the taboo of strawberries, and she especially understands the nature of Xuanyuan Yan's brother's control, and these two people have their own intentions to prevent her from completing the trial, and to be honest, Lin Ziyue is not surprised.

But...... The feeling in the "memory" illusion just now was too weird, and Lin Ziyue could feel that jealousy and pride also existed in it, but it was not at all as strong as the intervention power that others could exert to their heart's content.

It's very strange.

Strawberry's expression moved: "The trial must be interrupted, we ...... The main thing is that you have a guest. ”

Lin Ziyue took a step over with a smile on her face: "That guest must have brought a huge piece of bad news, otherwise you would definitely have to let me interrupt the trial at this time, instead of being so stinky that you can't even care about your demeanor." ”

Strawberry pointed at Lin Ziyue fiercely: "You talk a lot! Let's go!"

Before Lin Ziyue could taunt her more, Strawberry gritted her teeth and dragged her out of the cabin.

The moment she left the cabin, Lin Ziyue felt her body sink, the original real contact with strawberries disappeared, and her whole body went soft

Lin Ziyue's eyes flickered, and she found that she was already lying on the empty bed.

"Ah...... Dare is really here for the trial. Lin Ziyue thought that she was also coming and going in the cabin in the illusion of the trial, and suddenly laughed.

Then suddenly a warm voice came from the side, also with a smile: "What's the matter? That trial seems to be much lighter and more enjoyable than I thought?"

As soon as Lin Ziyue heard this voice, her body immediately became extremely stiff, and like a robot, she got up little by little and turned her head.

Familiar people, familiar looks and temperaments, Xuanyuan Yu sat cross-legged on the empty bed opposite, and when he faced Lin Ziyue's gaze, he turned his head slightly, obviously he was so gentle when he spoke just now, but now he put on a distant look.

"Ah...... Ah Yu ......"

Lin Ziyue's face quickly turned red because she remembered the things in the trial illusion, but the inexplicable sense of grievance that followed made her eyes fill with tears.

Xuanyuan Yu naturally noticed it, and immediately panicked: "You, you, don't be like this! We're not boyfriend and girlfriend now, how can I comfort you like this-Mom, you, don't cry......"

Lin Ziyue shouted angrily: "I didn't cry!"

Then she climbed out of bed neatly, pulled the door directly and walked out of the room, the door was slammed behind her, leaving Xuanyuan Yu to sit on the bed and stare at the door for a long time.

Xuanyuan Yan, who was sitting in the corner, took a cigarette butt from his hand and rolled his eyes, unable to even raise the strength to kick his stupid brother out of bed.

The trial was interrupted, and his strength involved in it would naturally be damaged, and what was hurt was the soul level, not magic power, and there was really no way to recover for a while.

However, Xuanyuan Yan was also ready to sleep directly under the control of strawberries, but he didn't expect that he and Lin Ziyue would suddenly wake up.

"Uh-huh. ”

Xuanyuan Yan cleared his throat, startling Xuanyuan Yu, who was still in a trance, and almost fell directly from the side of the bed to the ground.

"Brother, brother, you're awake too!" Xuanyuan Yu came back to his senses and saw that Xuanyuan Yan was also looking at him, and he was immediately relieved.

Xuanyuan Yan smacked his lips: "Tsk, has there been any abnormal situation in the past two days?"

Xuanyuan Yu was stunned: "Didn't the trial succeed......?

Xuanyuan Yan avoided the topic of how he turned out in the trial, and had only briefly explained that he might be pulled into by strawberries during the trial and would disappear for a while, but he didn't explain in detail, out of trust in his brother and some guilt, Xuanyuan Yu believed this statement very honestly.

Hearing Xuanyuan Yu's question at this time, Xuanyuan Yan simply said: "It didn't work, I don't know what happened, but strawberry means that there is a situation in the outside world." ”

Xuanyuan Yu immediately reacted: "Yes, it is true that someone suddenly came to the ship in the past two days, you should remember that the thunder evil of the underworld." At that time, he was covered in wounds, and he was directly carried down from the sky by a thunderbolt from the sky, and I thought that this ship full of demons was going to be damned...... But Lei Xie himself has been asleep and has not woken up, and the Lei Ling is too weak to return to the Lei Ling nail to sleep. After taking care of him was taken over by Su Jiujiu and Blue, I don't know what the situation is over there. ”

Xuanyuan Yan didn't say a word, and dragged Xuanyuan Yu out of the house: "Hurry up, that guy must have brought extremely important news, so that Strawberry's mood has been affected." ”

Xuanyuan Yu stopped talking and honestly followed behind his brother.

When the two entered the lounge, they found that the people who were still on the boat were already here.

Su Jiujiu was next to Lin Ziyue, holding her hand and whispering comfort, Blue sat next to her, a little distance away, Yan Crow squatted on his shoulder, Zhang Si looked at Su Jiujiu in the corner and blushed, Strawberry sat on the edge of the big mattress that was unfolded, one hand covered the top of the head of the person who was wrapped in bandages, her brows were furrowed, and her face was extremely grim.

Yes, the rest of the seven deadly sins, are no longer on this ship.

After Xuanyuan Yan entered the house, he immediately beckoned to Lin Ziyue: "Girl, did the strawberry say something?"

Before Lin Ziyue could reply, Strawberry spoke: "Since you two finally don't come over, I'll declare how urgent the situation is." ”

Strawberry removed her hand from the top of the bandaged man's head: "I heard that after he got on the boat, I barely dragged someone out with a compound illusion. I just reconfirmed the news with Lei Xie......"

"You need to know who beat him like this, I didn't expect the Book of Fate to remain silent on this matter, he ...... I'm afraid that he won't be easy to come out in the future, because the intervention force is too obvious, he will expose himself, and he will easily become the next target to be attacked. ”

Lin Ziyue's eyes were cold: "It's V, right?"

"Yes, he's tracking the trail of the wordless. ”

Strawberry looked at Lin Ziyue, and his eyes burned with bitter hatred: "Since his goal is wordless, then it will naturally come back to you again...... Then our target is him. ”

"Lin Ziyue, do you agree?" Strawberry's face was crazy that had never been shown before, and her originally gorgeous facial features couldn't cover the outright hatred: "You can kill him and avenge yourself." ”

Xuanyuan Yu looked at Lin Ziyue's face, and saw a trace of sorrow and sigh in her eyes, but she didn't look at him.
