62. Let's go back to playtime
After Xuanyuan Yu returned to normal, the first thing he did was to take out a voice recorder from his pocket, Lin Ziyue and the others were stunned, after Xuanyuan Yu confirmed the conversation between C and several other people, he sighed deeply, and he didn't know what he was thinking, his face was full of worry when he left, Lin Ziyue was still a little worried, but he was told that he actually lived in this city.
"If there's anything you want, just contact me...... This is my number. Xuanyuan Yu took out a business card, but Lin Ziyue gave him a roll of his eyes.
"No, it's been saved for a long time, and someone called directly last time, of course I remember it. Lin Ziyue said.
Sending Xuanyuan Yu away, Lin Ziyue was thinking about whether to go directly to the grocery store in advance to change shifts, but was dragged aside by Su Jiujiu, Lin Ziyue looked at Su Jiujiu with a mysterious look on her face, and couldn't guess what she was going to do.
"Xiaoyue, you, you and Xuanyuan ......"
"Ah, I haven't been to the grocery store for a long time, ah, then I'll go first, bye-bye~" Lin Ziyue directly pulled a coat hanging by the door and her own wallet, and jumped out of the door directly, leaving Su Jiujiu still standing by the door, and the look of eagerness to pry gossip stopped on her face, and Lin Ziyue went straight out of the door without looking at Su Jiujiu, and the Yan Crow on the other side saw this scene, quacked and laughed, and was glared at by Su Jiujiu several times.
"It's not a question of whether you want to or not, it's a question of whether you want to or not, it's not easy to match two young people?" Yan Yao grinned, his tone full of banter.
Su Jiujiu glared at him several more times.
The next morning, Lin Ziyue came home and found Su Jiujiu and the humanoid Yan Crow, the two of them were snoring on the sofa in the living room, and they didn't know how the two of them did it.
Compared to the last time I entered the game...... I always felt that it had been a long time, and when my eyes lit up again, Lin Ziyue felt like my whole body was falling into an ice cellar.
She had long forgotten that the place before the few people went offline was still the village full of balloons with human heads.
And Lin Ziyue, who had just logged into the role, was in front of several corpses that were so rotten that only bones remained, and there was a rust-like smell, which made Lin Ziyue have to take two steps back, and as a result, he seemed to have hit something on his feet.
"Ahh......h Lin?" Lin Ziyue looked back, and the person behind him was actually Jack, and he looked sleepy, as if he was sleeping against the crystal just now.
"Jack, you sleep in this kind of place...... Is it really okay?" Lin Ziyue looked at Jack who was rubbing his eyes, his green mask had been taken off, and he was pinned to his waist at this time, and looked up at the several balloons that were bumping into each other on it, they were screaming because of Lin Ziyue's reaction to retreat, which sounded very harsh.
"Well, those balloons are no different from wild animals except for a little noise, I've been exploring the neighborhood for a few days, and there's nothing to be afraid of. As soon as this voice came out, Lin Ziyue looked over and found that Hei Baizai was raising his head with a bored face, "I was scared at first, but they won't attack people at all." β
"Probably because we're not their target, Lin, you're done?" asked Jack, "why didn't you see that gentleman? β
Before Lin Ziyue could reply, another light flickered next to the crystal, and then the shadow dance appeared, in the past few days, I was used to seeing Xuanyuan Yu's civilian clothes, and suddenly saw him back in an assassin costume, Lin Ziyue always felt that something was strange.
Xuanyuan Yu, who was standing firmly, was stunned for a moment, then looked around at a few people and said, "Then let's go directly, shall we leave early." β
"yes, I've got to hurry, I still have things to do. Lin Ziyue said.
Black and white looked at her and said, "Are you so anxious to find that friend......?" Shadow Brother can't compete for a boyfriend?"
The shadow stared at the black and white boy with a not very good-looking face: "Children, don't talk nonsense!"
Lin Ziyue hurriedly explained: "No, I'm not in a hurry to find her this time......"
The shadow seemed to remember something, and whispered in Lin Ziyue's ear, "Are you planning to run to the Six Realms?"
Lin Ziyue laughed a little embarrassedly, did not answer the shadow's words, but walked over quickly and took Hei Baizai's hand and walked forward, making Hei Baizai a little confused, I don't know what the two said, which made Lin Ziyue seem to be more anxious, Jack shrugged his shoulders and followed behind the two, Shadow sighed secretly, and also rushed up.
Lin Ziyue's stubbornness...... I don't know if it's good or bad.
"Boy, you haven't had anything to do here for the past two days, right?" Jack, are you okay?" a few people ignored the balloons that gradually gathered on their heads, shuttling through the path in the forest, Lin Ziyue asked casually.
"It's okay...... Those balloons are harmless to humans and animals!" Black and White waved his hand helplessly, "I thought that if I really fought, it would be a little interesting, but when I got a little closer, those timid balloons ran out!"
Jack smiled when he heard this: "I think it's better not to approach, so let Miss Black come back...... So many times Miss Hei was not here, and like Lin and a certain gentleman, she went back to the other side. β
"Jack...... What do you know about our departure?" The shadow walked forward, playing with his dagger, looking a little careless, his gaze sweeping over Lin Ziyue from time to time.
Jack paused, as if pondering how to explain: "Well...... It's similar to a teleportation array, but this teleportation array seems to only act on your spirit, it won't affect your body, and it doesn't match my strength, so I can't use it, so I'm curious...... What's on the other side of your teleportation array?"
"Well...... It's our world. Black and White replied that she wasn't sure how far Jack's "intelligence" could go.
Jack blinked, with some surprise on his face: "What kind of world...... Can you tell me about it? Although I have heard my mother talk about many civilizations in the Six Realms, I have never been anywhere but this continent. β
Then Black and White Boy began to tell Jack about modern society, and Jack was full of emotion, and even asked many times why he didn't use magic to solve it somewhere, so that Black and White Boy kept repeating it to him several times, there was no magic in their world, and Lin Ziyue and Xuanyuan Yu were holding back their words, but they were embarrassed to say it, after all, the experience of the two was in the eyes of others, and it was a fantasy novel only on the Internet.
However, Lin Ziyue suddenly became interested, she poked the shadow's arm and asked, "You say...... What will happen if the magical civilization and the technological civilization come into contact with each other?"
The shadow looked at her in surprise: "Do you know that there is an immortal realm among the Six Realms?"
"Huh? ah...... It's the world of the White Sand Island we went to last time, right?"
"There were two civilizations that had a high degree of evolution, and suddenly one day they came into contact with each other, and then a fierce war broke out, and the entire main world planet of the fairy world was plunged into war, and this dispute lasted for nearly seventeen years before it was ended, and more than 200 million intelligent lives were displaced, from humans to various other creatures, and the number of humans killed in the war alone was as high as 500 million, not counting the other races that were over-plundered during this period and directly perished......"
"Tsk, it's so scary!?" Lin Ziyue kept smacking her tongue, "I didn't expect it to be so difficult for the two civilizations to reach an agreement!"
The shadow laughed and patted her on the shoulder: "No, it was in the war that the third-party civilization rose, and in seventeen years, a woman used these seventeen years and many years in the future to directly create a dynasty, which is a third-party force that advances with technology and magic." β
"Hmm...... But how do you know that? The Six Realms aren't part of what you created. Lin Ziyue suddenly asked.
Shadow coughed lightly: "Eh, that's because I can dream." β
"Dreaming ......?" Lin Ziyue looked up at the shadow suspiciously, and the shadow looked back at her with a smile.
"Now that I think about it, it should be another soul's dream, no, not a dream...... Eighty percent is memory, when I fall asleep, I often see a lot of fragmented memories or fragments, although it is very chaotic, but because I often dream, so the impression is getting deeper and deeper, as if I have witnessed everything in the Six Realms a long time ago. β
βCβ¦β¦ Isn't it a long time since he lived, his story is told by everyone, but every time I always feel that he has a kind of ...... Inexplicable loneliness. β
The shadow's eyes also dimmed: "Maybe it's because the height is unbearable, the greater his ability, the greater the responsibility, once something happens, the infamy he bears is naturally greater than anyone else, but in my dreams and memories, there is a person who appears the most." β
"It's L, right?"
"Yes. β
The conversation between the two stopped here, because Black and White Boy and Jack, who were walking in front, stopped, as if they were observing something outside the forest, which made Lin Ziyue and Shadow feel a little curious, so they followed and surrounded them.
Lin Ziyue looked over with a few people, there was a pair of men and women snuggling up to each other outside the forest, sitting under a big tree full of cherry blossoms on the hillside, obviously a couple who came out for a tryst, but what attracted her attention the most was not this, but a woman in red on the tree, her bright red kimono was embroidered with lifelike cherry blossoms, if it weren't for the bright red of blood, Lin Ziyue really wouldn't have noticed her.
"Hey, aren't those two people wonderful...... "I have heard of that kind of cherry blossom tree, the core is red and the petals are light pink, there are no leaves and the tips of the branches are threaded, it seems to be a dangerous tree!"
"Ah, that's the Xuan Bo cherry blossom, which will generally grow into two kinds of luxuriant, either buried a lot of dead people's corpses underneath, or buried a lot of dead people's corpses, and then the elves were born to protect the tree, and then the elves helped the tree kill people, and let the tree absorb nutrients, and the tree ......"
"Looks like there are elves, right? in the trees. Lin Ziyue continued.
"Are we going to help?" said Shadow.
Jack hesitated: "You guys...... If your consciousness dies for a short time here, it won't affect another world, will it?"
Lin Ziyue nodded and said, "Do you think we shouldn't bother with them and the tree?"
Jack sighed, "Well, did you notice the wooden stool lying across the two lovers underneath them? β
"Ah...... They cut down the tree themselves, and then they showed affection and were burned by the tree...... Trees don't know fire magic, do they?" said Black and White Boy casually.
"Of course not...... There is the conservation of the elements, and the plants are basically wood, or mainly control the vitality. The shadow said, "Let's not go over and let the two of them suffer a little." β
Lin Ziyue was silent, and the black and white boy spread his hands, but Jack was a little hesitant: "The elf of that tree...... It didn't seem like they were going to do it, and the two of them were leaving. β
A few people looked over, the couple pushed each other a few times, then stood up from the ground, revealing a very long horizontal stool under him, the man also took out a knife from his pocket, and then carved it on the tree in a dashing manner, the tree elf panicked and fell down, rolled on the ground twice before getting up, and then reached out in panic to stop the man, but her figure passed through the laughing man and woman, and then fell lonely on the trunk, the black hair that had been coiled up with cherry blossom branches fell down, draped over her shoulders, and looked as terrifying as a female ghost from a distanceγ
"She doesn't do it yet...... What are you enduring forbearance?" The doubts on Jack's face became more and more, and Lin Ziyue couldn't help but feel a little curious when she heard him say this: "Jack, can you see her?"
Jack nodded first, and then shook his head: "It can't be regarded as seeing, it's just a vague sense, but normally plants with their own consciousness tend to have a low tolerance for humans, as for the reason......"
"We've pretty much seen it...... It's a scourge everywhere. The shadow waved his hand, "Xiaoyue, if you want to make peace, go and make peace, I really have no reason to stop you." β
Black and White said, "The couple are gone! Nothing happened...... Let's go over and take a look, the cherry blossoms are so beautiful that I wanted to take a closer look. β
After saying that, she pulled Lin Ziyue and walked over there together, and the two men could only follow after glancing at each other.
Under the tree, Lin Ziyue could see the woman in the kimono, sobbing in pain, clutching the twisted "XXX?XXX" on the trunk , Tears kept falling all the time, wetting the placket of her kimono, looking at Chu Chu pitiful, the shadow and the black and white boy both raised their heads to look at the cherry blossom petals that occasionally drifted in the wind above, and Jack walked around the tree in a circle, closing his eyes as if trying to sense something, Lin Ziyue walked over directly, leaned down and looked at the marks carved between the woman's fingers, and felt a little uncomfortable.
"I'm sorry. Lin Ziyue said in a low voice, and put her hand on the scratch, to her surprise, her hand did not penetrate the woman, but covered the woman's cold fingers, although soft, but like a dead person without temperature, startled Lin Ziyue immediately moved her hand away, and looked at the woman a little embarrassed, she originally thought that since this woman couldn't touch others, she shouldn't be able to touch herself. The woman raised her head with a little surprise and stared at Lin Ziyue's face, the woman's face was full of disbelief, but then her surprise was replaced by joy, she excitedly reached out and touched a few strands of Lin Ziyue's hair that hung down, and then gently twisted it between her fingers, gently tugging it back and forth.
"You...... I...... Yes...... Touching ......" The woman spoke intermittently, her voice was as soft as a girl, Lin Ziyue listened very comfortably, so she smiled and nodded, and then held the woman's hand that pulled her hair, Lin Ziyue felt that her hair was a little painful, and it seemed that she was about to pull it off.
The moment the woman was held by Lin Ziyue's hand, she trembled, and then the entire cherry blossom tree also shook, and in an instant, a large wave of cherry blossom petals fell from the tree, and several people were covered in the body.
Lin Ziyue spit out a few petals from the corner of her mouth, and just wanted to say something, but Jack on the other side suddenly seemed to sense something, and shouted: "Lin! That elf seems to be on your side!
The woman was stunned by Jack's shout for a few seconds, and then seemed to have made up her mind, but instead grabbed Lin Ziyue's hands, Lin Ziyue was about to say something, but she didn't say anything when she was dragged by the woman, and then dragged by the word, and the two sank directly into the trunk.
"Oops!!" The shadow reacted the fastest, and a dodge rushed to the side of the tree, leaving only an afterimage in the air, but he didn't even have time to touch the corner of Lin Ziyue's clothes, only had time to see the moment she disappeared on the trunk, and the black and white boy also turned white, they thought that there would be nothing to do, they had relaxed their vigilance, but they didn't expect that it was Lin Ziyue who was hit by the seedling, Jack originally walked around and tried to sense the existence of the cherry blossom tree spirit, but because the sense was too vague, so that he had to pay full attention, and he didn't even notice that Lin Ziyue had walked within the attack range of the cherry blossom tree, and the roots that entangled Lin Ziyue and swept her into it just now, I'm afraid it was directly manipulated by the tree spirit, and his sudden voice must have disturbed the tree spirit......
The shadow cursed and punched the trunk of the tree hatefully, but the cherry blossom tree hugged the thick trunk and was not affected by him at all, but the shadow lost two health points because of the excessive force.
"This is too tricky!?" Black and White Boy stepped forward and pulled the shadow away slightly, "Brother Shadow, don't worry, if it's Jack...... Jack, you should be able to do it, right?"
On the other side, Jack's face was full of depression: "Although I have inherited some of my father's control over plants, I don't have the life force that he has cultivated, I ......."
"He's definitely not good, he's not good at this. The shadow didn't even look at the black and white boy, and made a conclusion like this.
"Alas, he was telling the truth, although it sounded uncomfortable. Jack shrugged, put a hand over the trunk, and closed his eyes again, "But I can try to talk to the dryad." β
"Hmm...... Sister Yue, don't have anything to do...... Otherwise, she'll have to teleport back to that weird balloon town, right? Since there were two couples just now, it means we're almost in the next town. Hei Baizai was a little anxious, looking around the place where Lin Ziyue disappeared.
"Even if I dig out all the corpses under the cherry blossom trees, I'm going to find her. "Shadow Survey.
