Lying flat on the sofa in the living room, looking at the ceiling, crossing Erlang's legs, humming in a low voice that he thought of subconsciously, it was not a meaningless daze, but thinking about the next plan.

The words of the old priest in the dream made Zhu Jue suddenly realize that he seemed to be facing a choice.

An unavoidable choice in front of you.

As the old priest said:

I am only responsible for saying these messages, whether you want to listen to them or not, and do them, it's up to you!

The implication is actually very clear, Zhu Jue can ignore what he said, treat it as if nothing happened, and continue to do whatever he should do, anyway, the old priest's consciousness should have completely dissipated after conveying these words, and Luo Bailin was completely ignorant of this.

On the other hand, if Zhu Jue chooses to accept this information and go to the stone monastery in the Eastern Desert, then he will undoubtedly be involved in this imminent or ongoing catastrophe.

Because it is foreseeable that the things that the old priest hid under the bed had some very good purpose, Zhu Jue accepted them and accepted his request.

That is, to find the gods in the dream realm and tell them what you know.

Why don't you go get something and come back without doing anything?

This may be a good way to evade responsibility, but Zhu Jue doesn't believe that the old priest who can still retain his will and easily control another person's subconscious mind a few years after his death will leave nothing behind.

Either don't touch anything, or accept the good and the bad!

However, this is not a matter of two strangers meeting on the road and asking each other "Have you eaten", the Grand Elder of Attar in the Temple of Uzza has made it clear that the possible consequences of searching for these gods are possible.

Being thrown hundreds of meters into the air by some force and then torn to pieces and falling down is not just a scaring horror story.

If you embark on this path, you will face unpredictable dangers, there is no doubt about that.

Zhu Jue doesn't like troublesome things, it has always been like this, in other words, it is indeed possible for him to pretend that he doesn't know anything, and forget about these things after a sleep, but this time the things in front of him are very troublesome, but it makes it a little difficult for him to give up.

Because he has a strange intuition, and this feeling is the same as that of the sea and the crab that appeared in the dream two days ago.

Originally, it was just a little throbbing in his thoughts, but as long as Zhu Jue thought about it deeply, he couldn't help but think that he had to do this thing, as if he would regret it if he missed it.

This idea goes against his intentions, but the last Crab Lord incident has already proven it once, and it's best not to ignore this feeling!

The contradiction of his own thoughts made Zhu Jue feel bored, and this state was not common to him, which meant that once it appeared, it would be a real trouble, and even the already tired and chaotic spirit became more and more uncomfortable, and it was difficult to alleviate it even if he lit a stick of incense.

Going for a walk?

"Wind chimes, I'll go out for a walk twice, you look after the house. ”

Following his wishes, Zhu Jue said to the wind chime, who was scurrying around the room, culling its imaginary prey, and only stopped and called out when he heard Zhu Jue's words to show that he understood.

Zhu Jue didn't plan to go far, the residential building he was in was a community in itself, so he simply walked along the corridor.

Speaking of which, Zhu Jue has not been to other floors since moving here, at most it is just a glance when taking the elevator, this time on a whim, he went around the floor from where he was and went up, and did not deliberately speed up, bought a bottle of happy water in the vending machine, and put his hands behind his back like a little old man who consumed food after a meal.

Passing by the fitness field on the same floor, three or five people are playing basketball with robots, the latter can keep up with human movements and speeds, and occasionally make two cheers or annoyed movements, but they are a little stiff, and it can be seen that they have been programmed.

Stop in front of the internal children's playground on the 15th floor, where a dozen children play around in the company of their own adults, and there are no smart devices, only play equipment made of sponges or other soft materials.

Walking into the cinema on the 20th floor, there is no difference between 2D and 3D, only VR panorama or the latest protagonist memory connection mode...... Parents and children, young couples, young friends, talking and laughing and waiting for their session to start.

Zhu Jue just stayed quietly aside, and the dilapidated scenes he saw in the Shengang area during the day flashed in his mind one by one at this moment, contrasting with these scenes in front of him.

The gap is evident in all directions.

And that's just what the city center sees as a "low-class ghetto"!

Is this how life is?

There were still contradictions in the previous choice, but new doubts arose in Zhu Jue's mind.

Why do so many poor people believe in the reappearance of the beautiful world after the calamity that some cults say?

It's not because this world makes them at a loss, everything is an abyss for them!

Is such a world deformed?

Can the threat to this world from the monsters of the spiritual pollution source be seen as a chance to do it all over again?

The confusion of his thinking caused Zhu Jue's will to begin to stir in a strange state.

The experience of this time has caused his own strong will to be traumatized one after another, black eight-open text, crab master, yellow silk mask...... The indescribable things that Zhu Jue faced were even more terrifying than the other.

Zhu Jue relied on his strong will to force them down again and again, but now when he began to dislike something, especially self-doubt, those horrors that he suppressed were like finding an outlet and trying to force a counterattack!

There was a "huhu~" wind in his ears, the air around him became a little sticky, and there were ice crystals falling around Zhu Jue's body, no longer pure white, and a trace of disgusting black fog was rendering in the meantime.

"Big brother ~ Do you want to buy flowers?"

I don't know when, a plainly dressed little girl walked up to Zhu Jue's side and asked timidly.

She didn't look very good when she held one, and at first glance she knew that it was a wild yellow flower, but it looked a little delicate under the wrapping of colored cloth strips.

"Are you jealous of them, to be honest!"

Zhu Jue turned his head and pointed to the crowd of laughter in front of him, and there was a dark mist in his eyes on the right side.

"Hey...... Jealousy? Just a little envy. ”

The little girl looked at the strange "uncle" in front of her and replied with some fear.

"If you destroy the world and make you just like them and do it all over again, would you do it?"

The corners of his mouth hooked up a bloody smile, and the black mist in his eyes became thicker.

"Don't. ”

The little girl's answer was categorical.

"Why?"

Zhu Jue's movements stagnated, and he asked in some surprise.

"Because my mom just cooked pork rib soup today and waited for me to drink, and my dad finally bought it...... If you don't buy flowers, I'll leave, big brother, you think about so many strange things all day long...... Drink more hot water, my dad said it would cure all diseases!"

The little girl put the flowers back in her basket and bounced away, and it could be seen that she was in a very good mood, perhaps because she had given a mature advice to some strange "uncle".

Drink plenty of hot water to cure all diseases!

Yes, the premise of destroying the world to bring a better world is to destroy the beautiful world in the hearts of these people now!

How could that be?

This world is still very cute.

If you do something for it and you won't lose anything, if you really encounter something terrifying, it's a big deal...... Drink plenty of hot water.

"Hey, drink plenty of hot water...... Hahaha~"

The black fog faded, and Zhu Jue, who was refreshed, laughed and got up, trotting to catch up with the girl,

"Why don't you sell me all these flowers, and get a 50% discount...... No, why don't you get a 20% discount...... Hey, you're going too far, nine percent off, if you don't sell me, I don't want it!"

Zhu Jue, who carried a small flower basket and hummed a song, returned to his room, put the flowers into a glass bottle and raised them, and lay back on the sofa contentedly.

"There's a lot to do next. ”

Zhu Jue put his hands behind his head and whispered to himself.

The Stone Monastery in the Eastern Desert of Dreamland must be visited and led by Lobelin, but before that, it is important to visit the Grand Elder of Attar in the Temple of Usa Town.

Although the guy was not very reliable, Zhu Jue did not forget the story he had told about his pursuit of the gods with his friends, the former almost succeeded, and the latter was killed by some mysterious force after success.

Regardless of the outcome, there is no doubt that they all know something important about it.

Since the gods were mentioned in the first message given by the old priest, it would not be wrong to ask the Grand Elder of Attar, and perhaps some additional useful information could be obtained.

"Whew~~"

Thinking of this, he subconsciously let out a long breath, and Zhu Jue suddenly realized that the world in that different space seemed to hide a lot of secrets.

In fact, the existence behind the ring of the crab lord and the yellow silk mask can be seen alone, and even compared to the chaos of the real world, the situation in the dream world may be more profound?

The space door should be able to enter now, but Zhu Jue wants to wait for Lishana to arrive in Usa and then go over, so that everything can be solved at once, saving a waste of time running back and forth.

"There's about two days left, what should I do?"

Turning sideways, his chin propped up in his left hand, his gaze following the figure of the wind chime wandering around the room.

This time is really a little embarrassing, the Yimeng side has been busy investigating the serial murder case for the past two days, Zhu Jue is a little interested in the spiritual pollution source monster induction that appeared before and after the person is unconscious, but he can't get involved in this aspect, after all, the kind of work that people carry out in the collection and analysis of news, he can't do it without an electronic brain.

As for the lotus leaf and the sycamore, the city where they are located is still some distance away from Dawn City, not to mention the time, they only said that they were very busy this afternoon, and they asked someone to take them out to play tomorrow in the evening.

Isn't this slap in the face?

Bite~

"TALK" There was a message flashing, Zhu Jue turned around and took the phone in his hand, and glanced at the sender: Olivia.

Click on the content of the message, and at the top is a video, the still picture is a cloud of rising earthy yellow smoke, and the bottom is a series of intermittent voice messages.

"Zhu Jue, there are giant spiritual pollution source monsters in the ruins!"

"We're trapped, the evacuation route is about to collapse, the signal will be blocked, we don't have time!"

"There's important information in the ruins, if you want to know about it, rescue us before the Archaeological Society comes in!"

Barely able to hear the general content of the words from the noisy background sounds, the first two sentences are to describe the situation, and the last sentence is undoubtedly attracting Zhu Jue to the past, Olivia also knows Zhu Jue, she knows that this guy is interested in these ruins, so she specially mentions.

I have to say, this method is really good.

With his hands propped upside down on the sofa, the whole person jumped up, and the wind chimes scurrying next to him jumped into Zhu Jue's arms on the low table.

The scavenger hooked the trench coat hanging on the sofa on the other side and draped it over for Zhu Jue, who reached left and right as he walked towards the door, put the trench coat on completely, and raised his hand to open the door.

Outside the hallway, it was pitch black.

"When I'm really sleepy, someone will send a pillow...... Sleep your MB, go out hi!"

He closed the gate with his backhand and strode towards the airboat stop. 8)
