Chapter 37: True and False Mu Xiu
I stared blankly at the two identical figures, and I wanted to faint for a moment, how could there be two Mu Xiu? Who is true and who is false? Could it be that the one I saw before was not Mu Xiu, so I had such strange thoughts, and when that Mu Xiu hugged me, even if I didn't see his face, I could clearly feel who he was.
In that case, that Mu Xiu just now was fake, and the one that appeared later was true, but now that the two of them are dealing with that dragon and lion, the scene is very chaotic, and I can't tell which of them is which, even if I open my eyes wide to observe, I still can't tell the truth or falsehood.
The only thing he can do now is to wait for them to kill the dragon and lion, and then ask them face-to-face, after all, Mu Xiu is not an ordinary person, even if he is impersonated, he must have a way to settle it, but what I don't understand is why there is a third person here besides us, which is really unreasonable.
Half an hour passed, only to hear a loud "bang", the huge dragon and lion fell to the ground heavily, seeing that they won the situation, when they walked towards me, I had a moment of surprise in my heart and wanted to rush forward, but just took two steps and paused, the two of them, I really can't tell who is the real Mu Xiu.
"Mu Xiu, what the hell is going on?" As I spoke, my eyes lingered on the faces of both of them, trying to see what their expressions were, so as to determine whether they were true or false, but to my surprise, they all looked the same.
"Now, you can only take one person from between us." They spoke in unison.
I looked at them in amazement, how could it be like this? I still hope that Mu Xiu can settle it, so what is it like now? The same clothes, the same height, there is no difference between the whole body, it is simply a mirror, and now they say such things at the same time, what does it mean? Could it be that it is up to me to tell the truth from the false?
"Mu Xiu, don't make trouble, which one is you? Tell me quickly! I asked, clasping my head in my hands, my head was about to burst, and I wished I could pass out, and when I woke up again, everything would be fine, but I was too conscious now.
"I fell for the spell, now I say whatever I do, the other party will be the same as me, now you can only choose one, if you choose the right one, then we can get out of here alive, but if you choose the wrong one, we will always be left here." Two people, speaking exactly the same words, the same tone of voice.
"How can I tell the difference?!" I covered my face in anguish, my eyes kept rolling on their faces, this is another death game, isn't it?
"Feelings, tell by your feelings, hurry up, time is running out." At this time, two voices were urging in my ears at the same time, and my head was about to explode.
My head was about to explode, but as soon as I thought about it, I immediately calmed down, how did I forget this stubble? Even if they are exactly the same, they don't always feel the same to me, right? It's impossible to know by questioning, and they're all the same now, so it's really hard to tell for sure.
With my mind settled, I stepped forward and looked at the two people who were exactly the same, and I still refuse to admit that this is the truth, it is as unreal as a dream, if I can tell the truth from their tone, it would be great, but now their tone is fundamentally the same, which gives me a great headache.
After hesitating for a while, I still mustered up the courage to walk between them, no matter what, I still need to take such a gamble, although they are now the same in words and deeds, but there will always be something that is not similar, just like the two people in front of the other, I feel completely different.
"I'm ready." Turning off the miner's lamp, I tried my best to squeeze out a smile, success or failure in this move, since vision can not bring me the right judgment, then use the touch of the body to find out the real Mu Xiu, after speaking, I stretched out my hands and held the palms of both of them at the same time.
Although we haven't known each other for a long time, and the number of contacts we have had is not very long, I believe and firmly believe that I can judge it, because in Mu Xiu, from the beginning to the present, from the first time I saw him, I have an unprecedented sense of familiarity with him in my heart, and I feel that it will never deceive.
Holding my hands tightly, I could faintly feel the trembling of my own palms in the dim space, and I could even hear each other's breathing clearly around the silence, but... Why do even the two hands in the palm of my hand give me the same feeling? Am I really unable to tell the difference?
I secretly told myself in my heart that I must make a judgment, I must not choose wrong, although there is no difference in general, but there is always something different, but the more I force myself to calm down, the more I can feel the sweat oozing slightly from the palms of my hands.
Now, as long as I let go of someone's hand, then I may succeed or fail, although I would like to give it a go, but I am in a dilemma, because any of them can be the real Muxiu.
In a daze, I seemed to sense something, yes, it was the breath, only the living would have the breath, and when I calmed down, I found that I could only hear two gasping voices, one was mine without doubt, and the other was the real Mu Xiu.
Thinking of this, I subconsciously felt their pulse at the same time, and at this moment I decisively let go of my right hand, and suddenly the surroundings lit up, and the fake Mu Xiu disappeared in place, although I knew that he was fake, but I don't know why I felt sad when I saw such a situation.
"Mu Xiu, I don't know why, I'm quite afraid that one day you will disappear in front of my eyes like this." Looking at the ground, I said such a sentence in a bit of frustration, and I didn't know why I said such a thing, but what followed was falling into a thick embrace.
"I knew you were capable of coping, and this was the second time you saved me." His voice, sounding so hoarse for the first time, was not a nice love story, but it also made me feel a sour feeling in my heart.
After a while, Mu Xiu let me go, "Okay, let's get out of here quickly." He said.
I nodded, and then asked him, "By the way, what the hell just happened?" Why did you suddenly disappear before, and then I chased out and everything changed again, and then I woke up and met a fake you, and now that exit is gone, all of this makes me feel incredible. ”
