Chapter 31: Please Make Your Choice

The sun is shining outside the window, the scenery is pleasant, just looking at it, I feel that the sun is shining into my heart, and my worries are gone, but the house is full of blood.

The blood light was not dazzling, and even a little soft, but in the constant shaking, it shook Xu Xi's eyes, not the eyes of the character, but the eyes of Xu Xi sitting in front of the computer. When the light comes, the eyes are reflexively closed.

How can this light flicker through a computer screen?

When I opened my eyes again, I was no longer in the computer room, but at the foot of the mountain in the countryside, halfway up the mountain, which was the grave of my parents.

How did I end up here? Was it because the strange blood light was shining in my eyes? Through? It shouldn't be possible, could it be that this is a place like a fantasy?

I mean the system!

called, the system that was always on call in the past didn't respond, it couldn't be that something bad happened, right?

It seems that he underestimated the mirror book after all, and the mirror book was denounced as a demon, which seems to be not unreasonable, and no one has told him how to get rid of the illusion, it seems that he can only rely on himself.

Turning around, there was an endless white fog ten meters behind him, the fog was thick, unprecedentedly thick, and I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to see my fingers when I walked in. Looking up, as far as the eye can see, this white fog surrounds the entire mountain along the foot of the mountain, and this white fog connects the sky and the earth, and there is no end in sight. There was no sun, moon or stars in the sky, and it was white, as if the mountain had been completely cut off from heaven and earth.

There is no way to retreat, then the only thing left is to move forward.

This mountain is just an ordinary mountain in the countryside, except for the graves of his parents, there is nothing special about it, maybe there is a way to solve the illusion.

Xu Xi climbed the stairs up the mountain, this mountain road is different from the barren when he returned home, the stone steps are neat, there is no moss, and it is not wet. In the cracks of the stone steps, only a few tenacious and unyielding weeds emerge, dotting the stone steps, which has a unique taste.

At the end of the stone steps is halfway up the mountain, this section of the road is the main road most often taken by the villagers, there are three dirt mountain roads at the end of the stone road, you can't go far, these dirt mountain roads will divide into more dirt mountain roads. Walking on one of the dirt mountain roads, Xu Xi soon came to the grave of his parents.

The location of the parents' grave still has the shape of a tomb, but in the middle is not a place for the urn, but the entrance to a cave.

Standing outside the cave and thinking for a while, Xu Xi broke a small tree two fingers thick nearby, went to the branches and leaves, and waved it a wooden stick about one meter and a half long.

Stepping into the hole, I thought I would face a dark, mysterious, and dangerous cave, but I didn't want to see it still bright in front of me, and I actually appeared in my hometown, which in reality had long been deserted, and half of the roof had collapsed, and I could no longer shelter from the wind and rain, and it became a habitat for poisonous snakes. But here, the scene of the hometown in front of me is as usual.

"Where are you running to play again, running around every day, and you don't know until you're back for dinner so late." This familiar reproach is his father.

Sure enough, my father walked out of the small kitchen door and looked at Xu Xi sternly.

"Don't run around, be careful of being abducted and sold by human traffickers to others as children, are you afraid?" The kind mother also came out, bluffing in the same way.

"You don't dare to run around in the future?" The father came over with a handful of bamboo branches tied together, and shook the bamboo branches in his hand demonstratively: "Do you know that it is wrong? ”

Unexpectedly, when I saw my parents here again, tears blurred my eyes: "I know it's wrong." ”

It's useless to admit mistakes, my father approached, and when he was caught off guard, Xu Xi's buttocks were pumped: "Let you know it's wrong!" I don't change it if I know it! ”

It hurts, it hurts for a long time! Tears welled up.

"Alright, alright, don't fight, come in and eat!" The mother hurriedly stepped forward, blocked Xu Xi in front of her, blocked all the directions of her father's attacks, and escorted Xu Xi into the kitchen.

When I was a child, my family was poor, and I lived in a mud house, and the dining table was placed in the kitchen, and it was not separated. On the table, there are three bowls of rice, a bowl of greens, a bowl of salted hairtail, a bowl of beans, and a bowl of soup.

"I'm hungry, come, hurry up and eat!" The mother pressed Xu Xi to the seat, and the parents also sat down, and they were happy.

"Don't look stupid, hurry, eat quickly!" Mother smiled and put a piece of salted hairtail fish in Xu Xi's bowl.

"Good, good!"

I picked up the chopsticks and was about to eat and put down the chopsticks, when I blinked, everything in front of me changed.

Where is the fragrant white rice in the bowl, it is a bowl of wriggling maggots, where is the salted hairtail, it is a piece of carrion, the greens are not greens at all, they are green snake corpses, and the beans are not beans at all, but small stones.

"Mom and Dad, don't eat ......"

When I looked up, I looked at my parents affectionately, and where were my parents, they were just two skeletons.

"What the hell are you?"

Shocked, Xu Xiteng stood up suddenly, picked up the wooden stick placed aside, and the wooden stool he was sitting on fell to the ground with a bang.

Holding the wooden stick and eyeing the stool vigilantly to prevent himself from tripping, Xu Xi slowly retreated, wanting to leave this strange place first. However, the two skeletons did not move in the slightest. also looked at the back road, everything changed again, parents are still parents, and meals are still meals.

"Silly boy, what are you doing, why haven't you eaten?" The corners of her mouth were still smiling, but her eyes were clouded with a layer of mist.

"What for? Sit down and eat! Father arranged the chopsticks on the table and glared at Xu Xi sharply.

The picture is extremely familiar, but how to make people feel at ease stepped forward, and the thought of the white rice I just saw was a constantly wriggling maggot, my stomach cramped.

"Sit down, I'm your mother, and I'm going to hurt you?" The mother wiped the corners of her eyes with the corner of her clothes and said with a smile, "Also, what are you always doing with a snake?" ”

Snake? I was holding a wooden ......, and after a glance, Xu Xi trembled, where was the wooden stick in his hand, it was obviously the five-step snake that was poisoned by himself when he worshiped his parents.

As soon as his hands were released, he was about to throw the wooden stick away, but at the moment when the wooden stick was about to be taken off, he held it again with Xu Xi. I closed my eyes and opened them again, and when I looked again, I still had a wooden stick in my hand.

Is this really their own parents? Is this really a stick? Or, is it all hallucination?

He looked at his parents, and then at the stick in his hand. A wry smile climbed up Xu Xi's face, and he may have found a way to break the illusion.

A difficult choice was placed in front of him. Is it to believe in the "parents", put down the weapons in their hands, and eat honestly? Or do you believe in the weapon in your own hand and kill your "parents"? Either way, you might be able to debunk this illusion. Of course, this is just my own speculation, perhaps, I will fall into a deeper illusion!

Of course, you can also not make a choice, be trapped in this illusion, and die here.

Looking at his familiar parents, Xu Xi burst into tears.

Kill "parents"? How can you be negative again in this life! Abandon the sticks that protect yourself? I don't want to die!
