Volume 3: The Ghost Lingers Chapter 61: Out of the Darkness
Volume III: The Abyss of Fear
……………
I suddenly remembered something, something I had never thought about, what kind of person am I?
Am I strong or cowardly? Is it true goodness or hypocrites?
I haven't thought about this kind of thing before, and it's actually true, after all, how many people in the world are willing to spend time thinking about such meaningless questions besides philosophers? Good or bad, life is short for decades, and it can soon come to the end of life, and in response to this problem, the summary of a person's life may often only be thought about when people reach the end of life.
I don't know why, but I can't help but think about this question now, although many literary works have a variety of analyses of human nature, but I still want to make an evaluation for myself, I, He Fei, what kind of person do I belong to?
Unfortunately, I can't think of it, I can't guess it, I can't judge.
Maybe I'll have to leave it to others to judge me.
I'm so tired, I'm really tired, I'm so sleepy...... Want to get a good night's sleep.
Well? What's going on? Drowsiness gone?
Why is my tiredness gone, but more sober? Remember I should have ......
………
After a trance and darkness, He Fei slowly opened his eyes, but then he was squinted by a light above his head, at this time he was a little confused, and he was also puzzled in his mind What was going on, but after about a few seconds of distraction, the next moment, out of instinct, He Fei had already jumped up from the ground with a bang!
As far as the eye can see, with the help of the lights, you can see that the surrounding area is a white space, which is very clean and quiet, and you can clearly see the outside world through the glass door in front of you......
Subway station waiting hall!
(This is the Abyss subway station, yes the healing hall, I, I'm back alive?) I'm not dead!? )
It seemed that it was difficult to accept this reality and still didn't seem to believe that he was still alive, his thoughts turned, and he glanced at his body that was only in tattered clothes but unscathed, He Fei subconsciously reached into his pocket, took out a skeleton ticket, and then, a relatively short text message appeared in his field of vision:
Executor: He Fei.
Number of quest completions: 2.
Survival: 4.
(Mission accomplished?) I, I really came back alive from the mission? Could it be ...... )
In his thoughts, He Fei figured out something, understood something, recalled the experience at the end of the mission, and in his impression, he seemed to be dead, and his consciousness quickly dissipated, but the consciousness that quickly dissipated when he died also happened to hear a cold voice, and in a trance, he vaguely heard a cold voice saying that the task was completed and the teleportation function was activated, didn't that mean......
(Holy!) )
I didn't expect that the time of my death was the same second as the return of the teleportation power!!
That's right, as mentioned above, it was precisely when the teleportation function was activated that he was still conscious at the time, so the curse determined that he was still alive when he should have died, and only then would he return to the cursed space, so that he was not left in the mission world as a dead person.
Thinking of this, cold sweat crawled all over his forehead and body, and his already frightened heart beat even more, and he was terrified to the extreme.
This can't help He Fei not be afraid, and he can't help but secretly exclaim that he is lucky, so dangerous, really dangerous, if his consciousness dissipates a second earlier, will he still be cursed and teleported back at that time?
Not only that, but the experience at the end of the mission was also the closest thing He Fei had ever come to death in his life, even more dangerous than the one in Krosso Town, after all, it was a real death experience, the real meaning of the near death, at that time, even He Fei himself thought that he could not still have a life, and even faced death calmly.
Luckily, otherwise......
After the fear, what follows is joy, the joy of being lucky and not dying!
At this moment, in the treatment hall, in addition to all the injuries being completely repaired, He Feideng, who had confirmed that he had completed the task and returned alive, was overjoyed, with an expression on his face for the rest of his life, and he was even more excited that he could survive.
Like the fear, the excitement comes and goes quickly, but it is not the first time He Fei has performed a supernatural mission, it is enough to show a little excitement appropriately, and after gradually calming down his personal mood, with a certain thought, the young man slowly turned his head......
The first thing that caught my eye was Ye Wei, the female veteran who also recovered as before, and the beautiful woman who was saved by He Fei at the end of the mission.
At present, the beautiful woman is just sober like He Fei, just got up, first supported her forehead with her hand, subconsciously looked ahead, looked at He Fei, and saw that the young man was not dead, inadvertently, a touch of joy flashed in the woman's eyes, but it quickly disappeared, and then, Ye Wei stood in place while staring at He Fei in a silent state, yes, she didn't say a word and fell silent, but deep down, a long-hidden concept has been greatly shaken.
(Am I wrong?) Or is the notion I've been holding on to right itself wrong? Is there really light in this world? )
Sunlight doesn't always exist, night isn't always the theme, the world isn't all black, on the contrary, most of the time light is the main theme of life.
(It seems that I was really wrong, the brilliance of humanity...... Yes, it exists. )
As for He Fei, he found that the other party was silent, although he was surprised, although he was puzzled, but when he looked at each other, the young man still faintly caught some different colors from the woman's eyes, and even many, many eyes that had not been shown before.
In his eyes, there was unwillingness, apology, and a slight touch.
For a while, the atmosphere at the scene was quite embarrassing, in order to avoid the embarrassing atmosphere from continuing to maintain, and suddenly came back to his senses, He Fei hurriedly touched his head and smiled at Ye Wei with an embarrassed smile: "Ah, haha, Sister Ye Wei, look, we won, we successfully survived the mission!" ”
It's a pity that the college student's atmosphere adjustment was not appreciated by the other party, Ye Wei was still in a silent state, seeing this, I don't know if Ye Wei's silence caused He Fei to have a certain resonance, or evoked a certain memory of the young man, in the silence, He Fei's smile gradually disappeared, and his mind couldn't help but think of someone.
Thinking of the bald man with a burly face and a burly body, I also think of Peng Hu who chose to sacrifice himself in order to save himself!
For Peng Hu, He Fei admired this person in his heart, although the bald man once said that he was just doing this to repay He Fei's life-saving grace, it is easy to say, but how many people in this world can really repay the favor with their lives when they are alive and dead?
Not only that, if it weren't for Peng Hu, he wouldn't have found a way to survive and complete the task later, he would have died at that time, and it would have been impossible for him to return to the subway station alive.
"Brother Peng, you died so miserably......"
Thinking of this, He Fei's face was gloomy, and his mouth couldn't help but chatter.
Somehow, just as He Fei thought of Peng Hu and planned to mourn for the bald man for three minutes, he seemed to hear what the young man said, and on the other side, Ye Wei, who was silent just now, instantly frowned, and then asked He Fei with a suspicious expression: "Huh?" What were you just talking about? ”
"Well, it's okay, I'm talking about Peng Hu."
Xu was afraid that Ye Wei had forgotten who this person was, so he replied casually, and after thinking about it, He Fei specially added: "It's the bald man named Peng Hu, he introduced himself in the mission before." ”
Who would have thought that He Fei's voice fell, Ye Wei was stunned at first, and then stared at him with a puzzled gaze, until He Fei Erzhang was confused, and the beautiful woman raised her hand behind the young man and said a sentence in a rather suspicious tone:
"You're not in a problem with your eyes, are you?"
Well?
Groov!
He Fei was startled for a moment, then suddenly turned his head to look in the direction Ye Wei pointed, and then ......
He saw a man, a familiar figure in the corner on the right.
At this moment, under the light of the hall, in addition to seeing the bright light reflected from someone's smooth scalp, He Fei also heard a rough laughter that followed:
"Hahaha! I didn't expect Lao Tzu to die!! ”
………
Listening to the rough laughter and seeing the familiar figure again, He Fei fixed his eyes and saw who else this person was not Peng Hu?
The bald man, he didn't die, he, survived!?
Yes, just as He Fei and Ye Wei saw in their eyes, Peng Hu was indeed not dead, he also persevered to the end of the task, although it is undeniable that the bald man was indeed drowned by the huge waves in order to save He Fei, and even was attacked by the female molth water in the end, but, I don't know if he was lucky enough or his vitality was too tenacious, just when the bald man was about to suffocate to death, a middle-aged security guard passing through the corridor happened to be bad and became a new target for the female man.
Sure enough, seeing that another living person appeared, the female stinger, who had always killed people when she saw them, immediately shifted the target of the attack, and went to chase the middle-aged security guard with the flow of water, as for Peng Hu......
Miraculously survived, and with its strong vitality, it gradually relieved itself in a suffocating state that was enough to suffocate anyone!
Of course, the above are all afterwords, the important thing is that the bald man is not dead, he returned to the cursed space like He Fei and the others, and after waking up, he was stunned for a long time, and when he saw that he was indeed not dead, the bald man immediately laughed.
"Brother Peng!"
At this moment, listening to the bald man laughing wantonly, and seeing that the other party was also healed from his injuries, He Fei's originally low mood instantly disappeared, called the other party, and then walked towards the other party with a happy face.
………
Seeing He Fei walking in front of him, don't look at the smile just now, but Peng Hu still showed joy on his face, stretched out his hand and patted He Fei's shoulder and said, "Hey! Brother, do you see? You, Brother Peng, I'm not dead! Hahaha! ”
He Fei was also happy for Peng Hu, and he was also happy that the other party could survive, although he was still surprised how the other party survived? But in order not to spoil the atmosphere, and seeing that the other party was very happy, he temporarily put aside the doubts in his heart, and He Fei also casually echoed: "Yes, how can a good person like Brother Peng die easily?" ”
I don't know why, Xu is a little concerned about the word 'good person', He Feiyan, the bald man who was still smiling just now suddenly stopped smiling, not only did the smile disappear, but the scumbag face also twitched slightly a few times, and only after a slight pause, he shook his head and sighed at the young man and smiled bitterly: "What? You say I'm a good person? Hehe, I'm not as good as you think I am......"
(Huh?) Not as good as you think? Was this man really not a good person as he looked? Or is it something you've done in the past? )
In fact, when Peng Hu said this, not only He Fei in front of the bald man froze slightly, but even Ye Wei, who seemed to be indifferent to everything next to him, subconsciously turned his gaze to the bald man, but ...... Peng Hu obviously didn't want to explain, suddenly came back to his senses, and saw that he was unscathed, the bald man was startled at first, but he didn't wait for him to figure out what was going on, and then, through the glass door, the man was quickly speechless from the scene outside the door.
Finally, Peng Hu discovered something, if he was still shrouded in the joy of being lucky not to die at the beginning, then it didn't take long for the subway station in front of him to naturally attract the attention of men.
Da-da-da-da.
Similar to He Fei's first arrival at the subway station, after confirming that this place is still a subway station, Peng Hu, who had been swept into the subway entrance by a hurricane earlier, couldn't help but show a surprised expression, and was too suspicious, in addition to being stunned, he moved his legs, and the bald man first pushed the door and came out to the waiting hall, and then, he stood in place and fell into a stupor while scanning the surrounding environment with his eyes wide open......
After a long time, it wasn't until He Fei and Ye Wei also walked out of the treatment hall that the bald man turned back to He Fei and asked in a puzzled tone, "You two, this should be a subway station, right?" I was swept away by a hurricane, why did I just come in this time? Also, I think it was pitch black before, huh? ”
Speaking of this, the bald man raised his hand and pointed to the healing hall behind him and several similar buildings nearby, and then continued, "Huh? What are these buildings used for? And how did my injuries recover? That's right...... Why are there only three of us here? What about the rest? ”
Although there are too many questions that Peng Hu has sprung up one after another, He Fei can deeply understand the bald man's mood, after all, his reaction here and Peng Hu are not much different from Peng Hu when he returned from the last mission, at the same time, Xu is tired of the almost similar reaction when the newcomer first came here, just as Peng Hu was still curious to observe the surrounding environment, and just as He Fei was about to think about how to explain, on the side, Ye Wei, who seemed quite tired, had already instructed He Fei: "It's not early, He Fei, you stay and explain to him, I'm a little tired now, so I'll go back and rest first, and remember to remind this person to go to the conference hall tomorrow morning for a meeting. ”
"Oh, okay."
Not to mention, there is a teammate who is not as smart as himself in addition to being helpful in the supernatural spirit mission, and it is also useful in the subway station, He Fei exists at least he doesn't have to worry about explaining everything for the newcomer, Ye Wei handed over the task of explaining this task for the newcomer to He Fei, seeing that the young man nodded in agreement, the beautiful woman walked towards the north dormitory area without saying a word, however, ......
I don't know if I thought of something during the period, the words were over, Ye Wei, who was originally turning around and wanted to leave, suddenly stopped moving, turned around, and turned her gaze to He Fei again, and then, under the young man's incomprehensible gaze, there was silence for a moment, Ye Wei spoke, and said a sentence to the young man, a sentence that was difficult or even impossible to say from a woman's mouth:
"It's not all black in this world, and I used to be maybe really wrong......"
"Thank you."
With that, the woman left straight away and returned to the dormitory hall.
However, He Fei was stunned, and was stunned on the spot by the woman's seemingly casual words, why? The reason is very simple, because he is not a simple-minded person, or he understands the meaning of the other party from the sentence just now.
The meaning is broadly divided into two points.
First, Ye Wei is the person who has spent the most supernatural tasks in the team, and the reason why she has successfully survived so many missions must rely on her extraordinary wisdom, but in order to ensure her safety as much as possible, she uses her wisdom to deceive her teammates, and uses her identity as a veteran to treat her teammates as chess pieces.
And He Fei is the only one who has discovered Ye Wei's true face, so he will implicitly persuade Ye Wei at the end of the mission, because he can faintly feel that women may be in essence, maybe not the kind of unscrupulous person, but lost in their hearts by some previous experiences.
In the end, when she saw that He Fei did everything and even did not abandon herself like an idiot, she completely understood that she was wrong, the concept of survival she insisted on in the past was all wrong, the world is not all black, He Fei used practical actions to prove to her that there is still a human brilliance in this world, so she walked out of the psychological shadow she had set for herself, and the person who helped her get out of the darkness and get out of the shadow was none other than He Fei.
This change means a lot to Ye Wei, so the words 'thank you' have to be said by her no matter what.
As for the second point, it is the most crucial point.
The passage just now was Ye Wei's answer to him.
Yes, when he was in the Rose Theater before, it was also before he risked his life to save the other party and was about to run to the power room, he, He Fei, had said the following two words to Ye Wei.
Namely......
"The sun doesn't always exist, the night is not an eternal theme, the world is not all black, on the contrary, most of the time light is the main theme of life."
"So...... Sister Ye Wei, if I still have my life this time, I hope to see a real you when I go back, a you who came out of the darkness. ”
Now, Ye Wei gave an answer, just as when he asked Ye Wei a question with a paragraph that ordinary people could not understand, this time, Ye Wei also gave him the most direct and affirmative answer with a sentence full of deep meaning.
Looking at Ye Wei's back as she drifted away, He Fei smiled, revealing a smile of relief.
Because he knew that from this moment on, Ye Wei had changed, although he didn't know the other party's inner thoughts, He Fei still got the answer he hoped for the most from Ye Wei's words just now.
(Sister Ye Wei, in fact, you still haven't noticed that you are now, you who have come out of the darkness now...... It's the real you! )
The current Ye Wei is already a new Ye Wei, as for Ye Wei's past......
Just let it drift away in the wind.
At the same time, just as He Fei was looking at his back and feeling relieved, directly ahead, Ye Wei, who had been walking silently, had already burst into tears unconsciously......
It's really nice to soak up the sun.
