“…… In the first place, it shouldn't have been! ”

Actually, this is not my intention.

It's just that he is asking, and the life and death he asks reminds me of the theme of this layer of secret realm. I don't know what a state of lifelessness and deathlessness is, but if life and death cannot be chosen, then it seems that only those that do not exist in the first place are the most suitable state.

That's why I responded.

Maybe it's right, the self in front of me, or Wei Heng, gradually disappeared. The surrounding sea of flowers slowly reappears. There were still five of us, but in front of us, there were only four boxes.

Corresponding to the position of Baiwuji, there is nothing.

"It looks like he's been eliminated. According to my experience, at this moment, he should have endless yellow sand in his eyes, and he can only go back, unable to continue. "Forty-two is very sorry to come to Bai Wuji," in his eyes, we are also the nothingness in this yellow sand. ”

I didn't expect that either.

My regret is no less than forty-two, and I even feel that Bai Wuji's failure to pass may become a big hurdle for this trip to the secret realm.

It's just that the next moment, an accident happened, and Bai Wuji suddenly turned his head to look at the forty-two beside him, "What are you talking about, brother?" I can see you. ”

So, the atmosphere that followed was embarrassing for a few seconds.

"You...... Can you see? ”

"Well, yes," he said, pointing to the other side of himself, which is my position, "Officer Zuo, and Officer Zuo's little Yao girl, and the stupid old man next to you, you can see it." ”

"So, what about your box?" Forty-two questions.

"How do I know, I didn't see the box when I came out. I'm still wondering, you all have it in front of you, and I'm an exception? ”

Why?

I glanced at the four boxes in front of me, but I noticed something that was not easy to notice, and that was the location of the boxes.

Du Youlan, Forty-two, and Silly Old Seven, their boxes were all facing each of their bodies.

But mine is a little crooked.

If it's my box, he's closer to me, but if there's no me here, it's safe to say.

Thinking of this, I asked, "What did you see in the secret realm?" ”

"Nothing, it's short. There was a white mist, and then I saw a person, crazy and wearing ancient costumes. Speaking of which, that person is still a little ......" Speaking of this, Bai Wuji suddenly looked at me, but immediately shook his head again, "No, it's just a bit like, that person is so embarrassed, I really can't see what he looks like." He asked me if I should be born or die, and I didn't know how to answer, so I said casually, "Isn't it right that you weren't born in the first place?" Then, I came out. ”

With that, he spread his hands.

Is it also Wei Heng?

Is it the same final picture as me?

If so, he should have answered correctly. And the box in front of me not only belongs to me, but also to Baiwuji.

Du Youlan seemed to realize that I was seeing the same thing as Bai Wuji, and she didn't want others to know about it, or rather, she just didn't want Bai Wuji to know, so she changed the subject, "It doesn't matter what the reason is. The important thing is that you can go to the next level. You don't want to stay any longer, or do you want to open the box and see what you've gotten this level? ”

Silly Lao Qi opened the box.

From the eyes of the stupid old seven, it can be seen that the contents of the box make him hesitate, as if it is exactly what he wants. But he also knew that Forty-Two would not let him do that, and he did not dare to resist Forty-Two, so he closed the box again.

Except for him, the rest of the people also gave up the opportunity to open the box.

Actually, I'm curious about what the box in this level will give me, and I don't seem to be very afraid that I won't be able to control myself this time. It's just that this time the box is very likely to be owned by me and Bai Wuji, Du Youlan gave me a look, and she really understood that the illusion we saw was the same, and the box that cleared the customs was also shared.

She wasn't going to let Bai Wuji see the contents of the box.

So, I gave up.

We continued to walk into the depths of the secret realm, and it was still me and Du Youlan who walked last.

"You owe me a favor this time." I say.

"Thank you." Du Youlan smiled and responded, "Then how are you going to let me repay you this favor?" ”

"How? Actually, I'm curious about what's in my box at this level. Now that you can see that I am in the same environment as him, can you guess what is in our box? And, the reason why I don't want Bai Wuji to know about this. ”

It's just that the words of the two of us, Du Youlan didn't mean to avoid it at all, and responded directly: "I don't care about the process of one thing, but I care about the result." It doesn't matter what other people do, mine wants to be perfect. If not, go for perfection. The old things have happened, no matter what the cause is, the result is there, but I'm not dead, he is still there, so the result that I am disgusted with must be changed with my own hands. ”

"I probably get the idea. Although I never think that Bai Wuji is Wei Heng, if you take this as a premise, your request is not difficult. I looked at Bai Wuji in the distance, and continued: "That guy, it doesn't seem to have any emotional experience, even if you lie, you can cheat, right?" ”

"Heh, I thought you knew me well."

"I thought it wrong? So what do you want to do? ”

"Have you ever heard that question, if a dog bites a person, should a person bite a dog?"

That's a surprise answer.

I understand her words, but I really don't seem to know Du Youlan as well as I imagined.

"You're going to bite back?" I asked.

Du Youlan smiled coldly and responded, "Can't you? I'm not a good person, and I'm not as detached as I seem. ”

"That'...... It's a big project. Because you not only have to find the 'Wei Heng' in your eyes, but also the little fox at the beginning. ”

Although she was threatened by Du Youlan, in fact, the atmosphere of our conversation was still very good, and she was also half-joking, until I said the last half sentence. She suddenly turned her head to look at me, and there were three points of doubt in her cold eyes, "What did you say?" ”

"What did I say, I guessed wrong?"

"You say, what else do I find?"

"Fox?"

"What you just said is the 'little fox'."

"What's the difference? You told me that Wei Heng betrayed you because of a fox. ”

"But I don't have the impression that Officer Zuo is not a person who will put the word 'small' in front of an animal."

"I will, I always add that, I have raised birds, turtles, flowers and grass...... It's just that you didn't listen, and you suddenly changed your face because of this, it's really ......"

I began to explain.

But in fact, I don't know why I'm explaining.

In fact, the whole content of the hallucination didn't seem to matter to Du Youlan, and I wanted to talk about it in the first place.

But maybe it's because I see more parts than Bai Wuji. I had a question in my heart, and I didn't want Du Youlan to think too much about it, and I didn't want her to point at Bai Wuji's "muzzle" and turn it to my head. Yes, it's such a persecution delusion that makes me reluctant to say more to her about this matter.

"Didn't you just ask me if I had any guesses about what was in that box?" But she suddenly changed the subject.

"Huh? Ah, right. ”

"I guess it's the fox."

Her words made me subconsciously raise my hand and gesture at the box that had been placed in front of me and Bai Wuji.

It's not that big.

And it was this action that was noticed by the sensitive woman, and she smiled coldly at me, "Are you thinking, that box doesn't seem to be able to hold the 'fox' in your memory?" Sure enough, what you see should be much more than what Bai Wuji narrates. ”

So, I ran out of options.

"Okay, I saw the story you told. I know that Wei Heng, Su Wei and Su Wei gave you a birthday gift, that piece of ghost head coral. ”

"Why?" There was a look of surprise in her eyes.

"You ask me? Why don't you lie on the ground and ask the secret realm, how do I know? ”

"I mean, why do you see more than Baimowgli?"

It's really time to think about.

Why?

"He may not be telling the truth." I looked forward, looking at the back of Baiwuji in the distance.

But Du Youlan said: "He can't lie yet, and if he lies, I can see it at a glance." ”

Then, our conversation ended endlessly, and the atmosphere between us became strange.

Fortunately, at this time, everything in front of him began to blur, and Du Youlan beside him disappeared. The next layer of secret realm will save me at this moment.

……

This time, the world before me was dark.

I heard the sound of dripping water, staccato footsteps, and finally the sound of moving the stone door.

A beam of fire appeared, but it wasn't enough to illuminate the entire space.

From a bird's-eye perspective, I watched the light of the fire moving forward, the fire flickering, illuminating the face of the person holding the torch, my face, or rather, Wei Heng's face.

His face was pale, his eyes were obsessed, and he moved forward with difficulty.

In front of him was a high platform with a stone box on top of it. He walked up the stairs to the top of the platform. There seemed to be some mechanism there, and he held the torch beside him, slicing through his palm, dripping blood into the mechanism.

Then, the mechanism works, and the stone box opens. A head appeared in front of him and me.

"Why is this happening...... but Wei Heng was very disappointed, as if he didn't want to see that head at all.

"I'm the one to be disappointed." The sound that suddenly appeared seemed to come from the skull.

Wei Heng retreated!

The fire is flickering!

He kept shaking his head and turned to leave!

"Do you want to escape? Can you escape?! The head asked.

Wei Heng's feet stopped, "Yes, why should I run away...... I should have sealed you. ”

So he turned around and made a seal in his hand!

"Idiot, can you do it? Do you know how many of your people will die if you do it? If man is not guilty, will you and I be guilty? If you and I are above man, if man is above livestock, and man is not guilty of eating livestock, why should you be so stupid as to think that you and I are sinful and sinful? ”

"Man is not livestock......

"And you and I are?"

"I'd rather be!"

"Stupid."

"......" Wei Heng was ready to start.

But he is always preparing.

I tried to go down, but my body, or rather my perspective, was fixed and couldn't be changed.

Like an outsider.

"I ......" Wei Heng finally gave up.

But it all seemed to have been expected by the head, "Then send me out!" ”

"No, I, I can't do that."

"You're still going to seal me?"

Wei Heng continued to shake his head, "It's not either. I cannot see people die, nor can I deny my identity, nor can I turn my back on my kindred, neither innocent nor innocent worms can die because of me. I don't have the best of both worlds for a while, but there will always be ...... So you can't get out, never until I think of a way! ”

"Stupid, stupid. You think you've saved the majority? No sacrifices? Do you know that there is no sacrifice, only the destruction of all! You betrayed not only the worms, but also the people! More living beings will die because of you! Your soul is destined to be infected with blood and fall into hell forever!! ”

Time and space, in this moment, stand still.

Wei Heng raised his head slowly and stiffly, he didn't speak, but those eyes seemed to be asking me, what should he do?

It seems like it's my choice again.

And I already have a choice.
