Food, what is food? ”

"It will be put in the mouth, chewed, crushed, and become the dregs of flesh and blood, and then swallowed into the stomach, absorbing the energy, and then expelling the disgusting impurities from the body, turning it into a foul-smelling and disgusting thing."

"Look, these people, they usually have to eat every day, right? It should be, right? Do you think they would one day become food? ”

"Have you ever thought that one day, you too will become a piece of?"

Zuo Yuan's voice was gloomy, indifferent, and with a three-point pathology unique to him, and then he looked at me, "This is my surprise for you, interesting, right?" ”

I looked at him indifferently: "You are really a madman. ”

Zuo Yuan waved his hand and pretended to smile helplessly: "No, no, no, you can't blame me all, I said, it won't work without this boat." ”

"Fart, you think I'm going to believe your bullshit?"

"Hahaha......" he laughed maniacally, one hand hooking my shoulder, "That's right, you really stuck to the right answer." This sentence of mine is indeed a lie to you. In fact, as long as there are charts, any ship, as long as it is not sinking, has a chance to reach Ugan Island. So, why should I choose this boat? One, it's fast enough, and second, I'm talking about probability, because there will be some trouble along the way, and this ship will allow us to solve the problem perfectly. Of course, this is not important, the most important thing to say is the third point that is crucial. ”

"You're such a boring pervert." I responded coldly.

"Oh, listening to you, I thought of my third point? Shhhh Zuo Yuan made a silent gesture, staring at my face with eyes with a strong sickly aura, and then suddenly stretched out a finger and pointed at my nose, "Didn't you say last time that I was wrong about you?" Aren't you the kind of rotten good person who won't die without saving and won't ignore human life? Maybe not. But I want to see, where is your bottom line? You are going to sacrifice human life for your purpose, speed up, and get out of trouble! Or for the sake of these people, make a fuss with me? Which one would you choose? Don't tell me you're not going to choose any of these words, and to tell you the truth, I hate being threatened endlessly. So, this is my last step and there is no room for further regression. Like you said, you have to listen to me except for entering Ugin Island. It's okay if you don't listen, I don't want the big deal, but don't think about it for the rest of your life. This multiple-choice question, you have to do it, if you don't do it, you still have to do it! ”

"What you're saying is really stinky and long." I pressed the finger down slowly, "Multiple choice questions are your own game, not mine." But every human life here, I will not let them disappear innocently. If anyone dies on this ship, I'll have your last name! ”

"Don't mess around, dude, we have the same surname. At least the pronunciation is the same. Zuo Yuan took his hand away, thoughtfully, and then said: "Actually, this question really came to my mind, I could have given this ship enough food in advance." Grab a few people, kill them, feed them, it's as easy for me as feeding a dog. But I thought, why do you benefit from what you do together, and I have to do the so-called bad things alone? And you, standing silently behind me, not seeing me doing evil, and taking this ship with peace of mind. Then, it's all over, you stand tall in front of the stage, become your hero, and get everything you want. Why? It's unfair, isn't it? To achieve the goal, the bad things have to be done together. ”

Speaking of this, Zuo Yuan suddenly rubbed his head and glanced around, as if he was looking for someone, "What about the girl?" ”

Yao Qianwen is not here, but she doesn't know where she went, and she will switch identities with Du Youlan in about an hour.

"What are you looking for her for?" I asked coldly.

"Because of the last paragraph I just told you, I have the impression that it was taught by a woman. To be honest, I have a feeling that she is the type I like. I think this must be what she said to me. That's what you said, the woman I should call Master. ”

At this moment, I have no interest in Zuo Yuan's memory at all, "What do you remember, what do you want to talk to her, it's your business." Send these people back and change ships, even if it's a gamble of chance, you can't let them die. ”

Zuo Yuan was stunned for a moment, stared at me for a few seconds, the appearance of the hippie smile gradually disappeared, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Who are you and me?" I've asked you many times before, is it your condition that only one of us take you to Ugin Island, that's all? I'm in charge of the rest. You keep agreeing, and now you want me to return, who are you? ”

He twisted his neck hard, making a creaking sound, and suddenly put a hand on my shoulder, just like we had when we first met, "Zoraku, I actually like the way you look so good-looking." But unfortunately, this ship can't go back, and since you decide to go to Ugin Island to save people, people are destined to die because of it, they are not guilty, you are all responsible. It won't be the first time, and it can't be the last. Look at yourself, you are sinful and not clean at all. ”

"There are no pure clean people in this world, and your words will not cause me any pain." I looked at Zuo Yuan with a cold gaze. In fact, I would be suspicious of every word Zuo Yuan said, but when he told me that the ship couldn't go back, my intuition told me that Zuo Yuan really didn't lie this time, "It's just, why can't this ship go back?" Is it your reason, or the ship? ”

"Hypocrisy." Zuo Yuan looked at me disdainfully, and then responded: "The real name of this ship is the Sea Ghost, you may have heard of it, it doesn't matter if you haven't heard of it, I'll tell you its story." It was indeed once a pirate ship, but you know that the sea is so big that it envelops our world, and the land is pitifully small compared to it.

Therefore, compared with the small land, in the infinite ocean, there are more bizarre and bizarre and difficult to explain stories. Legend has it that this ship, the fastest in the sea, was legendary before it became what it is today, and it had been to many mysterious places recorded in legends, one of which was called Three Eyes Island, where legend has it that there was a rift in hell, there were demons and ghosts, and there were also countless riches. This ship has been there before, the crack of hell, and the demons and ghosts have not been encountered, but they have met the natives of the island.

There are indeed gold mines on the island, but for the local natives, gold is not a currency, but a bridge with the gods, pirates in the process of robbing gold, slaughtering the natives, cursed by the natives before leaving, the voyage of this ship does not need any force to push, and can not change the goal of the voyage, it seems to be very good, but every time you go to sea, you have to sacrifice your human life! And whoever boards the ship will never be able to get off the ship, unless he replaces himself with human life. ”

"Can't get off the ship?" I didn't quite believe it, "What happens if you force yourself off the boat?" ”

"It will exhaust all the power of life, age rapidly, and put your feet on the ground, which is the time of death. But it's easy to do, as long as someone gets on the ship at the same time, it will be your replacement. Zuo Yuan lazily hung his hands on the black wooden fence and turned his gaze to me, "I know you won't believe it, but it's okay, you'll see you when you get to Ugin Island." ”

"But then you won't be able to get off the boat."

"There are people on Ugyen Island who can be my replacement. When I get on the boat, they get off the boat. As for returning to land, it will be more convenient, and there will always be people who are curious to come up. In short, I won't die, and what does it matter to me whether someone else lives or dies. I'm just more curious, what would you do? I am also curious, you worms, how much life energy is enough for this ship to absorb and consume. ”

Sure enough, it's not that simple.

When Zuo Yuan said that he would surprise me and let me not regret it, I should have thought of it. He really gave me a hard multiple-choice question.

"But I still don't believe it." I responded.

"Believe it or not, you'll see the results anyway."

"No, I believe that the ship you said will 'eat people', but I don't believe there is no solution to this matter at all."

"Oh? So tell me, how to solve it? Zuo Yuan responded with a smile, as if he was also expecting my thoughts.

"Wrecked the ship. You say it has life, that's easy, I'll kill it. ”

"Hahaha......" Zuo Yuan suddenly laughed wildly, and applauded me at the same time, "It's really a good way, but Brother Zole, can you tell me where you want to kill this ship?" Over here? Or Ugin Island? ”

He would ask, there must be no boat on Ugin Island.

So if you kill this ship on Ugin Island, these people, and I, won't be able to go back to land.

And if you do it here, and don't think about whether there is some kind of problem with killing this ship, these people will still die. Including me and Yao Qianwen. A vast ocean, relying on the strength of my body alone, it is impossible to swim back, sooner or later I will sink to the bottom of the sea exhausted, even if I evolve into a fish, but what about the rest? I can't save any of them.

So I was silent.

"I think the best thing to do is to do it on Ugin Island, but ...... How many people will be left then? As long as the ship moves, people will die. So there is no solution to this problem for you, you, Zora, will never be able to save everyone on this ship, and someone will surely die. ”

"That's actually quite interesting." A woman's voice suddenly appeared.

I turned around at the same time as Zuo Yuan, it was Yao Qianwen...... Du Youlan.

Maybe because of the geographical location, the sky is not dark yet, but the time has come for the two to change their consciousness.

She came to me and Zuo Yuan, her eyes were on Zuo Yuan, "Young man, long time no see." ”

"Really? If memory serves, we just met the other night. Zuo Yuan leaned his back against the fence, "Do you also think this matter is interesting?" Are you all in this group? ”

"Me and him? We've never been in a group, we're just tied up temporarily. Du Youlan smiled coldly, and then looked back at me, "You're right, his sanctimonious appearance is quite interesting, and I also want to know what he is going to do this time." ”

Now it looks like they're more like teammates.

I continued to lean on the fence and looked at the sea, but I didn't respond.

In this way, the three of us were silent for about ten minutes, and when someone called out that he was hungry, Zuo Yuan performed his duties as a service officer and went to prepare dinner. Then, only me and Du Youlan were left. But the silence was broken by her, "What do you think?" ”

"You also think that someone will die because of this this time, right?" I asked.

"Not necessarily."

"Do you have a way?" I looked at her in amazement.

She looked at me too, and suddenly reached out and poked hard in my chest, "Just face me, just remove your pretended surprised look." ”

"Huh...... How do you know me so well? ”

"Because it's you, there's going to be a way."

"No other basis?"

"There is no need for anything else."

I looked at her quietly for a while, and found that this person was probably the person in the world who knew me best. But my chest hurt a little, and I thought of the moment she poked me, the action, the picture, déjà vu.

"You just learned Mina?" I touched my chest.

"Huh?" She was stunned for a moment, did not respond, then turned to leave, and said to me before leaving: "I'll help you drag Zuo Yuan later, as for other things, you can do it yourself." ”

"You haven't answered my question yet, why did you poke me?" But I'm obsessed with it.

She didn't stop, but she responded lightly: "Heh, I never learn people." ”
