Chapter 196: Dusty Old Things
The water and grass on the hillside are fertile, and the eyes of the gentle sheep reveal a murderous aura that only the wild grass can read, and the wild grass shivers with the wind, they are not as weak as the grasshoppers that have just avoided the sheep's hooves, although they are weak, they are a hundred times freer than them. Weeds are born to determine their own destiny, and from birth to death, they can only follow their roots, and they must be there.
They envy dandelions, and they must have a casual journey in their lives, and they will be reborn without fear of the end. Whenever I look at the back of the dandelion walking away, the weeds will wave their arms to wish them to meet more beautiful scenery. When the dandelion turns back to echo it, the weeds are no longer so lonely.
At ALS base, Red Bean arranges Fluttershy in her room, and she decides to take care of Fluttershy's food and daily life herself, after all, Fluttershy has an unshirkable responsibility to this point. The guard had just brought some breakfast to the red beans, she poured the cereal into the milk and stirred it, and then spooned it to Fluttershy, who had a little soul missing from her clear eyes, and she kept staring at the same place, her body functions were no different from that of a robot, she was more like a walking vegetative person.
"Fluttershy, is it delicious?"
Hongdou asked if she knew there would be no reply, and the room was silent after she shut up. Fluttershy stops chewing, proving that she's full. At some point, Redbean becomes more attentive to Fluttershy's subtle movements, so that she feels that Fluttershy is communicating with her.
Redbean sets the bowl aside and sits with Fluttershy in the sunlight by the window. The sunlight refracted colorful light from her eyes, like a spirit beating in the mountains. The flowers on the windowsill wither, and Fluttershy suddenly frowns, her muscles shaking slightly, the extent of which may only be noticed if she slows down her life hundreds of times.
"Fluttershy, do you remember? It's your favorite flower, but it's a little wilting, sorry, it's due to my poor care. That said, I still haven't thought about replacing them, I just hope you'll get better soon after reading them. β
Neither Fluttershy nor the flowers on the windowsill respond to Azuki's pleas, they are like the twins of the flower gods, quiet and mysterious.
"Hey..."
Red Bean sighed, and suddenly there was a feeling of being clenched in her hand. Redbean looks at Fluttershy overjoyed, could it have happened?
"Fluttershy, Fluttershy. Did you hear that? β
Fluttershy's expression is still the same, and the miracle is like the end of the world, which she has only heard but never seen. There was a knock at the door.
"Report."
Hongdou sorted out his emotions and said.
"Come in."
The man in the CLA uniform stood at the door and saluted the red bean and said.
"Sister Hongdou, the general's phone, she has something to look for you."
Hongdou frowned, thinking that I hadn't gone to look for you yet, so I came to me. But now she doesn't want to ask about anything but Fluttershy. So he said.
"Tell her I'll call her back later, I'm not available right now."
"But..."
"It's nothing, you just do what I say."
"Yes."
The man went out and gently closed the door outside. Redbean thins the hair on Fluttershy's forehead behind her ear, then leans on her shoulder and whispers.
"Fluttershy, I'm going to get justice for you."
At this time in the Noaa Desert, the general threw the satellite phone aside and took a small sip of milk from the table. Red Bean's attitude is also expected by her, Fluttershy is the general's tired doll, and as for the sisterhood she first talked about with Fluttershy, it was buried in the loess of the Noaa Desert with the wind and sand. The general commanded his subordinates.
"Give the order to all mercenary groups. From this day forward, they will merge together, and those who resist will be killed. In addition, pay more attention to the CLA, if they have signs of resistance, they can be eliminated without my approval. β
"Understood."
The general's hand is really ruthless, all the mercenary groups in the world are just her own toys in her eyes, and no one knows the reason why she can play with the mercenary groups and applaud them. The general looked into the deepest part of the desert, where suddenly a high pillar of sand shot into the sky like a whale's spray, and then disappeared in the wind. The general smiled wickedly, as if her hands were controlling everything.
As soon as the general's order was issued, the CLA quickly received the order, written in black and white about the mercenary group of the global mercenary group being one, and those who disobeyed would be killed. Azuki sets it aside, if she shows rebellion against the General now, then it is only a matter of time before CLA falls, and no matter how much she hates what the General did to Fluttershy, she can't joke with the lives of everyone in CLA.
"Reply to the general, just say that the CLA is at the mercy of the dispatch."
"Yes."
In this matter, Red Bean plans to focus on the big picture, and Fluttershy's case is a personal grudge, and she will definitely ask the general for an explanation. After taking care of Fluttershy's food and drink, Redbean orders a man to watch her, at which point Redbean considers the General's purpose in doing so. Combining the mercenary groups of the world into one, is it a world war? Previously, Red Bean guessed that the general had made some kind of deal with the Heavenly Punishment Sect, so he handed Fluttershy to the Heavenly Punishment Sect, but in Fluttershy's situation, she didn't seem to have the value of the transaction, and the Heavenly Punishment Sect couldn't have wanted a wasted person. The general must have agreed to the Heavenly Punishment Sect's other requests.
At this time, Tang Mang was standing on the second floor of the factory, and below it was a cultivation cabin, which contained a duplicate resentful corpse. They are the vanguard of realizing their ambitions, and a long-lost smile appeared on Tang Mang's face. At the farthest end there was a most special cultivation pod, which was empty. Tang Mang once asked the cobbler what it was for, and the cobbler pretended to sell it mysteriously, only saying that it would be their secret weapon. And now, the pod is still empty.
"Leathermian, cobbler, don't lift a stone and shoot yourself in the foot."
Lin Yu was alone in the room on the second floor in a daze after being rejected by the bone girl, and I don't know how long it took, suddenly the screams of the bone girl came from downstairs.
"Ahh
The bone girl's screams were like a sharp sword piercing through the ceiling, hitting Lin Yu's heart. He ran downstairs quickly, only to see the bodies of Su Daming and his wife lying in the living room, while the bone girl was curled up in a corner, she looked at the music box in the hand of the person at the door in horror.
"Don't come, don't come."
Lin Yu quickly stood in front of the bone girl and said.
"It's you again, what do you want to do?"
"Flower Protector? Boy, I advise you not to meddle in your business. β
The cobbler rewound the music box in his hand, and the sound of the gears spoke of its age.
"Take your time."
After a while, a faint melody came from the music box, and although the sound was not loud, the penetrating power was extremely powerful. The Bone Girl covered her ears and screamed frantically, as if the sound was cutting through her body like a steel knife.
Lin Yu turned around and squatted beside the bone girl, her whole body was trembling violently, and there was no room for anything other than fear in her eyes.
"Stop."
After that, Lin Yu rushed towards the music box like a fierce beast that saw blood, and he planned to forcibly snatch the music box. But as soon as he got closer, the cobbler suddenly put the music box behind his back and said.
"Boy, they told you not to meddle."
After that, it was a punch to Lin Yu's abdomen, and Lin Yu's curled body was like a boiled shrimp, and he fell to his knees in pain. The sound of the music box was still ringing, and the cobbler set it aside, and then lifted Lin Yu from the ground with one hand. The cobbler's long nails almost pierced Lin Yu's flesh, and his other hand stroked Lin Yu's face.
"It's a pity that such a good skin doesn't peel off."
The sound of the music box gradually became quieter, and a piece of wood flew from the side and hit the cobbler's hand impartially. There was a tingling of his wrist, and the cobbler pinched Lin Yu's hand and let go, and he looked to the side to see the bone girl supporting her body with her hands, and the long hair of the shawl was scattered on her forehead, and her angry eyes could be seen between the hairs.
"Let him go."
"It turned out that the little baby stood up on his own. Would you like to enjoy it again? After all, this is the memory you cherish the most, and the past you don't want to face the most. β
The Bone Maiden threw another piece of wood at the cobbler, who easily dodged it. Then he walked quickly to the bone girl, pulled her hair hard, and said.
"You don't have to worry about him, you'll all die today."
With that, the cobbler rewound the music box, and the melody was like that of a criminal who had been imprisoned for many years, and at this time he could finally escape from prison and take fierce revenge on the murderer who had killed him in prison.
"Bone Girl. Why don't you come and play together? β
"Nope. Master will scold. β
"It's okay, I'm there."
The Bone Girl remembered the first time she met Jinqiu. She has always been like a curse, not long after the birth of the bone girl, her parents died mysteriously, and everyone related to her also died tragically, she is like a fortune teller's mouth of the heavenly evil lone star. Later, the bone girl was adopted by Tang Mang as a tool, but the naΓ―ve bone girl thought that she had finally found a home, but her illusions were completely shattered when she entered Tang Mang's house on the first day, the blood-stained leather whip, the scorching sun, the chaotic and cumbersome movements, and countless tricks have all become the nightmare of the bone girl since she was a child. Whenever she showed a hint of slackness, Tang Mang's leather whip tore at the bone girl's body and soul like a shrewd poisonous tongue. She could no longer endure this double torture, this world was not as gentle as purgatory to her, and for countless moments she thought about disappearing, and that evening she came to the pavilion.
The bone girl didn't know once she had looked at the pavilion from Tang Mang's mansion, she imagined what the scenery above would be like, and smiled when she thought about it. But when she looked back at the fact that there were so many things to do behind her, she felt that she would never have the opportunity to set foot on the pavilion in her life, and the intersection with it could only be in a dream. But today she walked out of Tang Mang's mansion, and she planned to leave this world to go to the pavilion to have a look, which was also the most rebellious and capricious thing she had ever done.
The evening wind mixed with the heat that had not cooled down all day, and the moment when it passed by the top of the mountain was even more disturbing. The Bone Girl was getting closer and closer to the pavilion, and her heart was beating faster and faster, and when she stepped on the last flight of stairs, it was another thin shoulder that crashed into her eyes first. It was Jinqiu, and it was also the first time they had met, as if they had agreed beforehand. Jinqiu smiled at the bone girl, and the bone girl was shocked. Although Jinqiu's smile was a little stiff, this was indeed the first time that the bone girl was warmed, and at that moment, her heart seemed to be healed and the most important piece of the piece.
"I'm Jinqiu, what's your name?"
Jinqiu's initiative made the bone girl feel that she was also a human for the first time, and the bone girl looked at Jinqiu's outstretched hand at a loss, she had no emotions at the moment except for vigilance. Jinqiu shrugged and withdrew his hand.
"Do you live around here, too?"
The Bone Girl nodded, but didn't say anything. Jinqiu continued.
"Look, that's my home."
The bone girl looked at the place where Jinqiu was pointing, and she suddenly remembered that Tang Mang had told her that the house on the top of the mountain was inhabited by the owner of the entire Sanyun Gang, and she must not be disturbed. And the little boy standing beside her at this moment was the owner of the house, and the bone girl couldn't help but be frightened, and her ears seemed to hear the sound of the water-stained leather whip roaring wildly in the air. She suddenly knelt down in front of Jinqiu and stammered.
"I don't know that you are the master, please spare your life."
Jinqiu was frightened by the Bone Girl's actions, but after a moment he calmed down again. Jinqiu also heard her mother mention things at home. Jinqiu pretended to sit on the stone bench in the pavilion, coughed, and said.
"Since you know that I am the master, do you listen to me for everything?"
"Yes."
"Okay, then you name it."
"Bone... Bone Girl. β
"Bone girl? What a strange name. β
"It's a bone girl."
"Whatever. What are you doing here? β
Hearing this, the bone girl glanced at the cliff below and said.
"I want to leave this world."
Although Jinqiu is young, he also understands what death is like, so he said.
"No, I'll allow you to do that."
Jinqiu got up and helped the bone girl up, and only then did he realize the injury on the bone girl's body, so he asked.
"Does it hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt."
"How is that possible?"
The Bone Maiden stopped talking. Jinqiu said.
"Close your eyes."
The bone girl obediently closed her eyes, and then Jinqiu stood behind the bone girl, he looked at the sunset in the distance and gradually turned blood red, and the woods under the mountain were like a layer of golden sand, at this time it was the most beautiful time in Chifeng Mountain, and the whole mountain stream was fiery red.
"Open your eyes."
The Bone Girl opened her eyes and saw the beautiful scenery in front of her, and for the first time her young mind had a concept of beauty, and amazement became the only thing she could do at this time.
"There are still such beautiful places in this world."
Jinqiu giggled behind her, and continued.
"Do you still want to die?"
The Bone Maiden hesitated for a moment, she found Tang Mang's mansion at the bottom of the mountain, and the familiar fear struck again, and she dodged the pair of claws. The bone girl turned around and saw Jin Qiu's really bright smile, and the haze in her heart was fading little by little. It took a long time for her to squeeze two words out of her mouth.
"I don't want to."
Jinqiu shouted long live and continued.
"Since I'm the master, then I'll order you to wait in the gazebo tomorrow or at this time, you know?"
"Understood."
With that, Jinqiu ran down the mountain. The bone girl stayed in the pavilion for a while before walking towards Tang Mang's mansion. As soon as he entered the gate, he saw that he was standing in the courtyard with a whip, and asked sharply.
"Where have you been?"
"I didn't go anywhere, so I went to the gazebo at the top of the mountain."
Tang Mang's expression suddenly became gloomy and asked.
"Who did you meet?"
"A man named Jinqiu."
"What did he tell you to do?"
"He told me to go back to the gazebo tomorrow to find him."
Tang Mang pondered for a moment and said.
"Very good, the training will end early tomorrow, and then you will go to the gazebo for an appointment, you know?"
"Got it."
Jinqiu healed the wounds in the bone girl's heart, and the bone girl also healed the loneliness in Jinqiu's heart. Two young and scarred hearts collided countless times in the pavilion, and several sparks collided. As time moved mercilessly forward, the sparks finally ignited into a prairie fire.
At that time, Sanniang had just sat in the position of the person in charge of Gao Yuntang, but Tang Mang had a great prejudice against her, the most important point was that Duan Sanniang was a woman and could not be qualified for this position. And the encounter between the bone girl and Jinqiu seemed to be provided by heaven with an opportunity for Tang Mang. The bone girl unknowingly became a traitor planted by Tang Mang in Duan Sanniang, many times Tang Mang deliberately taught the bone girl to ask Jinqiu, where did Jinqiu know so much, so she had to ask Duan Sanniang, and after a long time, Duan Sanniang began to doubt. Then she knew about Jinqiu and the bone girl, but she did not debunk Tang Mang's conspiracy, as the person in charge of Gao Yuntang, she still focused on the overall situation.
But the fate of the bone girl was not so lucky. Duan Sanniang didn't hurt a single hair, but sent her back to Tang Mang safe and sound. But one day the Bone Girl was taken to his workshop by the cobbler, and Jinqiu was locked in a cage at that time, and the Bone Girl looked at Jinqiu inside through the cage. The cobbler forcibly fed Jinqiu a medicine, and then opened the music box. As the music box sounded, Jinqiu rolled on the ground in pain, and the memories that were erased by the drug were also recorded in the melody of the music box little by little.
A melody comparable to half a life, when Jinqiu woke up again, he looked at the bone girl outside, and his eyes were full of strangeness. The Bone Girl clutched the cage railing in her hand and shouted.
"Jinqiu, Jinqiu."
"Who are you?"
Jinqiu's reaction was like a steel structure tearing back and forth at the heart of the bone girl. After this incident, although the bone girl was not punished in any way, she was actually the one who hurt the most. No one is sad about a blank slate, except someone who knows the reason behind it. The Bone Girl was exactly that person, and from then on she never saw Jinqiu in the pavilion again, and he left a scar on her heart like a strong autumn wind stirring the fallen leaves like knives, and then disappeared.
At this time, in the hall of Rosefang, the melody sounded again, and the scar on the bone girl's heart was reopened. She seemed to see Jinqiu's indifferent eyes again, and saw Jinqiu's past when she abandoned her, although she understood that it was not Jinqiu's intention, but the bone girl couldn't easily forgive in her heart, but every time she thought of Jinqiu, she had to forgive. Over time, it became a demon that the bone girl couldn't face.
"You can't escape."
The cobbler said jokingly with a music box. The Bone Maiden crawled on the ground, clinging to the cobbler's leg and pleading.
"I beg you to shut it up."
The cobbler not only didn't close it, but also put it on the side of the bone girl. The harsh melody intensified, and at that moment the cobbler felt a burning sensation behind him. When he looked back, he saw Lin Yu standing in front of him with a golden light all over his body, and he kept reciting the ancient language in his mouth. That voice changed the sound of the music box, and the Bone Girl felt a lot better.
"What is this?"
Lin Yu didn't speak, and pressed towards the cobbler step by step, the words in Lin Yu's mouth hit the cobbler's heart like a bell, and he Fang Fan saw a huge golden Buddha sitting behind Lin Yu.
The cobbler froze. Lin Yu took the music box from his hand and said.
"The past should be over."
Then he slammed the music box to the ground, and the melody inside was completely gone. The golden light on Lin Yu's body gradually disappeared, and the cobbler asked.
"What is this?"
"Buddha sound."
The cobbler suddenly clenched his left hand into a fist and hit Lin Yu, Lin Yu did not dodge or dodge, and directly used his body to receive the opponent's attack, the cobbler felt like he had hit the steel, and his fingers were almost deformed. Lin Yu suddenly shouted at the cobbler, who suddenly felt as if he had been punched hard, and then spat blood, and the cobbler knew that he was already at a disadvantage at this time. The cobbler then took out a smoke bomb from his waist, and the smoke billowed into the room, and by the time the smoke had cleared, the cobbler was nowhere to be seen.
Lin Yu picked up the bone girl and asked.
"How are you?"
The Bone Girl shook her head and said.
"Nothing."
Lin Yu let go of the hand holding the bone girl and smiled awkwardly. Lin Yu turned around and was about to leave, when the bone girl suddenly hugged Lin Yu from behind. Lin Yu turned around and hugged the bone girl, and after a moment, he suddenly kissed it, and a golden light appeared between the overlapping lips. The bone girl suddenly felt a lot more relaxed in her heart, and those past pains seemed to disappear with this kiss.
"What is this?"
Lin Yu stroked the bone girl's hair and said softly.
"I have taken away your past wounds, and may you no longer be jealous of the years in the future."
With that, Lin Yu let go of the bone girl and turned to go out.
"Wait a minute."
Lin Yu stood in place and asked.
"What else?"
"Where are you going?"
"Ghost Town, find Fang Fan to meet."
"I'll go too."
Lin Yu turned around and smiled at the bone girl, then stretched out his hand to her and said.
"Let's go."
The bone girl walked over quickly and grabbed Lin Yu's hand, and the bone girl was reborn from this moment.
At the same time, Fang Fan was carrying Jinqiu near the mysterious mansion, and Fang Fan decided that it would be better to wait for Jinqiu to wake up and go together. He sat on the sidelines and smoked, and the cigarette butts on the ground could already put out a big distress signal.
When the last puff of smoke drifted away, Fang Fan heard the coughing sound beside him, and he looked at Jinqiu's body that was shaking.
"You're finally awake, how did you sleep?"
Jinqiu stretched out his hand, Fang Fan pulled him up from the ground, Jinqiu said.
"It's very comfortable."
Jinqiu looked at the building in front of him and asked.
"What is this?"
Fang Fan said with a smile.
"The last boss."
"What's the plan?"
Fang Fan pointed to the room on the top of the building, and at this time, the words 'waiting for you' were written on the glass of that room, and Jin Qiu said.
"I didn't expect this old guy to be quite proactive."
With that, the two of them walked towards the building. As soon as they pushed the door open, the lights in the hall on the first floor came on. The whole hall is magnificent, and the radius of the crystal chandelier overhead is at least about two meters, and the surrounding area is full of European-style decoration, showing luxury. Facing Fang Fan and Jinqiu was the crystal staircase, the red carpet did not block its brilliance, and after going up the crystal staircase, it was a retro elevator. Fang Fan immediately pressed the rise button, and Jinqiu was still looking around. There was no one in the huge hall, not even a ghost.
"There's a bit of a wicked place here."
Hearing this, Fang Fan said with a smile.
"There is no evil in this place."
"Yes."
"By the way, how did you get caught?"
"I went to find Lin Yu after I got rid of the boss lady with the bone girl, but I got separated from the bone girl when I was in an alley. I remember it was a dead end, but at some point it went through. So I walked over, and when I walked over, the alley was sealed again, and I couldn't go back, and she couldn't hear the bone girl. In the end, I had to walk forward, and as I walked, I got to Mishima Ei, and then he grabbed me. β
"Gone?"
"It's gone."
"It's really simple, it seems that if you have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely take you to do more bizarre cases like this."
"Excuse me. I still want to deal with people. β
As soon as the words fell, the elevator went to the first floor. The two got on the elevator, and Fang Fan noticed that there was no button keyboard in this elevator, which meant that they couldn't choose the floor they wanted to go to.
"Fool me, right? How do we get up without a keyboard? β
That's when a handle falls off it, like an old-fashioned pull switch. Fang Fan looked at Jinqiu, then put his hand on the pull line and asked.
"You say don't pull or don't?"
Jinqiu looked around and found that there were no other switches, and said.
"Pull. I can't live or die, I'm out of it. β
"Gotcha."
After saying that, Fang Fan pulled down the light with all his might. The elevator door slowly closed, and I saw that the pointer on the elevator indicating the floor stopped at position 6.
"Looks like we're on the 6th floor."
"We're aiming for the top."
Fang Fan looked at the floor number roulette wheel and said.
"It's all blocked all around, but from the outside it should be more than ten floors."
After a while, the elevator stopped. When the elevator door opened, the humid and stuffy air suddenly entered the elevator room, Fang Fan and Jinqiu looked at each other, and had no intention of going down. Fang Fan pulled the switch again, and the elevator door closed again, but this time the elevator did not go up, but went down, and they returned to the hall on the first floor after about ten minutes. Fang Fan spread his hand and said.
"Look, the evil sect is coming."
"What should I do?"
Fang Fan pulled the switch again, and the elevator door closed again, and the elevator slowly rose.
"This elevator is too old, and it is faster than this to climb the stairs."
Jinqiu's complaint reminded Fang Fan that they really didn't see a staircase to go up when they first came in, it seemed that the elevator was the only tool to go up and down here, but judging by this mystery, even if there were stairs, they wouldn't be able to use it. The elevator stopped again, and Fang Fan noticed that the position of the floor roulette hand was still on the 6th floor.
"It seems that if you don't wander around this floor, you won't be able to go to the next floor."
With that, the two stepped out of the elevator. The moment he stepped out of the elevator, the feeling of humidity and stuffiness became even stronger, Fang Fan unbuttoned the top button of his shirt, so that he could breathe more smoothly, and Jinqiu simply took off his coat directly.
"How can there be a rainforest in this building?"
"Shhh Listen carefully. β
Jinqiu closed his mouth and followed behind Fang Fan, and the more Fang Fan walked forward, the more familiar he felt this environment. At this time, he heard a noisy fighting sound in front of him, and Fang Fan made a gesture to Jinqiu to lower his body. The two of them continued to move forward in a half-crouch, and the huge tropical plants happened to be their best disguise.
Fang Fan looked out through the vegetation leaves, and he immediately gasped. No wonder this scene is so familiar, this tropical rainforest is the original Wanyou Island, and what appeared in front of Fang Fan at this time was the picture where Zhang Ze brought himself and Yuehan here to ask for medicine for Yuehan and Long Feng, and encountered Mo Zhu in ambush.
Fang Fan watched cautiously from the side, his gaze stayed on Zhang Ze. The guilt in Fang Fan's heart appeared again, if that hadn't happened at that time... Suddenly, Jin Qiu sneezed behind him, and Fang Fan quickly turned around and covered his mouth. But it was too late, only to hear Mo Zhu shouting loudly at their location.
"Who?"
As soon as the words fell, there was a sound of machete chopping, and Fang Fan hurriedly left here from the other side with Jinqiu.
"You're going to die? Can't you bear it? β
As soon as the words fell, the sound of wind blew in Fang Fan's ears, and he hurriedly pulled Jinqiu to the ground, and then a huge blade swept over their heads. At this time, Mo Zhu's voice came from outside.
"Friend, since you're here, let's show up."
Fang Fan pulled Jinqiu to stand up, and several people immediately came over and put the knife on Fang Fan and Jinqiu's necks. Fang Fan and Jinqiu were brought to Mo Zhu, but they didn't seem to recognize Fang Fan, it seemed that in their eyes, Fang Fan at this time was not Fang Fan.
"You and their accomplices?"
Mo Zhu pointed at Zhang Ze and asked.
"It's not."
"And what are you doing here?"
"I came here by accident."
At this time, Zhang Ze suddenly jumped into the air and hit Mo Zhu. And at this moment, they actually stood still in the air. Fang Fan and Jin Qiu looked at the things in front of them blankly, and at this time, an old voice suddenly sounded in this room.
"Hello, I'm the mayor you're looking for."
"What do you mean by that?"
"If you want to see me, you have to finish my game first."
Fang Fan crossed his hands in front of his chest and said.
"Tell me about it."
The mayor smiled coldly and said.
"As you can see, what you see in front of your eyes is your memory, and what you have to do if you want to get out of this layer is to choose one of them to kill."
Jinqiu said.
"Isn't it very simple, just pick one person and kill it."
"Listen to me. If you kill that person in your memory, it is equivalent to changing the future, and that person is really dead. β
Hearing this, Fang Fan and Jinqiu were stunned. At present, the most difficult choice was handed over to Fang Fan, and he was unwilling to choose no matter how he chose. However, there is still a good thing at the moment, that is, Mo Zhu and Zhang Ze are dead, and if they are killed, it will not have any impact on the future. At this time, the mayor's voice sounded again, and he said.
"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking, Zhang Ze and Mo Zhu are already outside the range of your options. That is, you can only choose between yourself and the people you love. β
Fang Fan smiled faintly and said.
"You're really like a god. However, it was not a difficult choice for me. β
With that, Fang Fan directly took out the Luo Blade and slashed at his past self. Luo Blade swept over like a wind, and a red wound suddenly appeared on Fang Fan's chest in the past, and blood was pouring out of it. At this time, a wound also appeared on Fang Fan's chest, and the extent of blood gushing was not small.
"It has to be a fatal wound."
Fang Fan gritted his teeth and said.
"Nonsense."
Fang Fan took a deep breath, and then said to Jinqiu behind him.
"Jinqiu, come here."
Jinqiu walked over with a bitter face and said.
"There must be another way."
Fang Fan shook his head and said.
"No matter what happens in the moment, you have to make it to the end. But if the opponent is really strong enough to be perverted, remember to save your life. And..."
"What else?"
"Help me take care of Yuehan and Nianyi."
With that, Fang Fan pushed Jin Qiu aside with all his might, and then swung the knife at his past self again, the sharp blade directly left a long wound on Fang Fan's neck in the past. Fang Fan covered his wound with both hands, his face turned purple, and his breathing gradually became difficult. Jinqiu hurriedly walked over, and Fang Fan finally fell into Jinqiu's arms.
"Fang Fan, Fang Fan."
Fang Fan's limbs began to twitch, and after a while, he was out of breath. With Fang Fan's death, the surrounding scenery began to slowly fade. The four who had been frozen disappeared, then the rainforest, and finally even the humid and stuffy air. At this time, a brown elevator handle fell in mid-air, and Jinqiu stepped forward to hold the handle, and then the mayor's voice appeared again.
"This is the key to the next level."
Jin Qiu hesitated for a moment and left Fang Fan's body here for the time being, and finally came back to pick it up. Jinqiu took the handle and walked towards the elevator, he noticed that the handle just now was red and could be removed, Jinqiu pressed the new handle, and then pulled hard, and the elevator door slowly closed. The elevator went up until Fang Fan's body disappeared from Jinqiu's sight.
The old elevator made a clicking sound, the pointer on the floor roulette stopped at the 13 position, and after the elevator door opened, Jinqiu first looked out, and then slowly walked out of the elevator. At first glance, there were several stone piers on the ground, and when Jinqiu was about to take a closer look, the mayor's old rancid voice reappeared.
"You're alone, aren't you afraid? It's too late to leave now, so it's better to go back to Zhonghai City to be the director of your security bureau, why bother wading into this muddy water? β
Jinqiu remembered what Fang Fan said before he died just now, and a trace of indifference flashed in his eyes, and he said.
"Stop talking nonsense, let's talk about the rules of this layer."
As soon as he finished speaking, the ceiling suddenly turned into a pegboard, and a small green light flashed in the middle of the pegboard, the mayor said.
"There's an endgame of chess here, and if you can solve it, the green light on the ceiling will turn red, and not only will the pegboard stop, but it will also give you a handle to the next level."
A trace of cold sweat flowed down Jinqiu's forehead, no matter how difficult this level is, the key is that Jinqiu has never played chess, so there is no way to start. But fortunately, he still knows a little bit about the rules of chess, and he can still see a rough idea.
The situation at this time is the most classic mainstay endgame in the endgame, Jinqiu looked at the situation on the chessboard and muttered to himself.
"Damn, fight, it's a big deal."
Jinqiu is the red side, and he takes precedence. He walked one infantry six into one, and the opponent did not hesitate to draw five and six. Jinqiu's face was embarrassed at this time, and he said to himself.
"What the is going to do next? No matter, let's go blind. β
He took out the amulet that Xie Xin gave him, put it on his lips and kissed it, and then used the cannon seven into two, and the other party followed the car back one. At this time, the ceiling was still moving down little by little, and Jinqiu felt a chill on his scalp. Jinqiu made another eight into six, and the opponent took the front car and retreated three; Horse four into five, horse eight back six; Seven guns are flat nine, and horses are six and five are retreated; Soldiers are six and five, and generals are six and five; There were fewer and fewer opponents on the chessboard, and Jinqiu felt that the situation was almost over, and said to himself.
"God forbid. Horse six into eight. β
As soon as the words fell, the heavy chess pieces moved slowly, and when the chess pieces moved to that position, the opponent's veteran chess pieces suddenly burst, and fragments flew everywhere. Before Jinqiu could react, when he looked up at the pegboard, he found that the green light had turned into a red light, and he jumped up excitedly.
At this time, all the steel nails of the ceiling were retracted, and the entire ceiling also rose upwards again. The pieces on the ground are hidden in the chessboard, Mayor Mare said.
"It seems that luck is also an essential thing."
Jinqiu sneered and said.
"It's over, but the key is that my determination to kill you helped me."
The mayor stopped talking, and a green handle appeared in mid-air. Jinqiu stepped forward and grabbed the handle, then shouted into the air.
"Old thing, we'll meet soon, I advise you to wash your neck and wait."
After that, Jinqiu quickly ran into the elevator, and after changing the switch, Jinqiu pulled it down hard, and the elevator slowly drove up.
At this time, Lin Yu and the bone girl had returned to the ghost town, and Lin Yu's body didn't know what had changed at this time, in short, there seemed to be some kind of power protecting him. The Bone Girl asked.
"How do you feel? If it's not comfortable, we'll go out now. β
Lin Yu said with a smile.
"No, I'm fine now, and I've never felt so good."
As soon as the words fell, the demons that appeared out of nowhere blocked Lin Yu and the bone girl's way, and the bone girl was just about to make a move, Lin Yu stretched out his hand in front of the bone girl and said.
"Just leave it to me."
After saying that, Lin Yu suddenly took the initiative to plunge into the group of evil ghosts, and his whole body kept bursting with golden light. The bone girl felt that the golden light in her eyes gave her a very warm feeling, it was like the Buddha of Pudu sentient beings, and at this time, Lin Yu looked like a messenger sent by the Buddha to the world. Suddenly, the sound of chanting mantras came from Lin Yu, and I saw that the evil ghosts around Lin Yu covered their heads in pain after hearing the sound of the mantra, and golden cracks gradually appeared on their bodies, and in an instant, the evil ghosts disappeared like firecrackers. At this time, the bone girl suddenly clapped her hands and said.
"I see."
