The room is very clean, there is nothing around, the walls are pure white, and there is no dust at all, and the cleanliness is even a little unsettling.

"What is this place?" I looked around suspiciously, and the people around me were gone: "Brother?!" Liu Xin?! What about you? ”

"Stop yelling, it's useless." Suddenly, a low voice came from behind me, startling me, and I hurriedly looked back to see the man in his thirties standing, who was still holding a cage containing a sleeping cat.

"Why are you here? What about them? "I looked at him and felt that something was clearly wrong.

He didn't answer directly, but first put the cage on the ground, then took off his coat, looked at me with strange eyes, and suddenly sneered: "You really don't know anything?" ”

"Know what?"

"If it's not for trading, then why are you here to be in such a place?"

"Deal?" When I heard that, I felt a little dazed, and I didn't see any trading going on from start to finish, but why did they keep talking about trading?

"What kind of deal are you talking about?"

He suddenly smiled when I asked: "I really don't know anything, I really don't understand where you dare to come here." ”

I didn't speak, but looked at the other man warily, knowing that he had something to say next.

Sure enough, after pausing for a few seconds, he sighed and said, "Since this is the case, then I will tell you that this place is called the Cross House, and it is a place dedicated to conducting life transactions. ”

"A deal for life?" When I heard this word, I felt a chuckle in my heart for no reason, and it seemed that things were not simple.

"As the name suggests, it's about trading with your life." He said in a calm tone: "People have too many desires and pursuits in life, but not everyone can enjoy it, some people have worked hard but have nothing, but some people don't pay anything, but they are born with it, can this be said that life is fair?" ”

"This cross is a place where people can realize their wishes and find the fairness of their lives. The cats, dogs, rabbits and other animals, mice, chickens, and ducks in your hands all represent different bargaining chips in life. ”

"No matter what you choose, as long as you dare to give, you will reap the rewards."

"What the hell do you mean?" I listened for a long time, but I couldn't understand what he was saying.

"The meaning is very simple, you chose the cat just like me, and the chip that the cat represents is the soul, you know?" He sneered: "When you have a wish in your heart that you have to fulfill, but you have never been able to achieve, then come here, choose a bargaining chip, say your wish, and everything can be realized." ”

"Cats are souls...?" I listened to him, my brain racing, and suddenly I seemed to understand something: "You mean to say... Do these animals represent my own body? ”

"That's right, if you choose a cat, it means that the bargaining chip you want to trade is the soul, and if you choose a dog, it means that the life expectancy, different animals represent different things, and you choose the cat like me, which means that you are ready to hand over your soul."

I looked at him in amazement and felt incredulous: "So you are willing to give away your soul in order to fulfill a wish?" ”

"You don't understand at all!" He suddenly became irritable: "Sometimes people are alive, it is better to die, what do you need to do with your soul at that time?" I heard them say that without a soul, people have no emotions and feelings, and that's good, people are always blocked by these messy things. ”

"But there's no emotion... Are you still human? "I finally understood what this place was for, the so-called "cross", which is the place where people use their souls or their lives or whatever else to fulfill their wishes.

But what kind of wish would make people lose their souls and reduce their lifespan?

"As long as I'm alive, I'm a human being." He touched his palm and said, "There are rules in the cross, and the same animals are not allowed to appear in the same transaction, once there is the same, one must be eliminated, and the way to eliminate it is to come to the Shura field." ”

"Here, only those who win can go out alive to fulfill their wishes, and those who die, leave forever." He looked at me with gloomy eyes and said, "So, do you understand now?" I don't know why a few of you came to this place, but it's disgusting to choose the same chips as us! ”

"I see, no wonder when we choose the same animals as them, their faces are so ugly, and there can't be two identical animals at the same time when trading at the Cross, so our choices just hit the muzzle of the gun!" After I figured out what was going on, my mind finally stopped being confused: "These three people came to trade with a purpose, but our appearance obviously disrupted their plans, no wonder they are so hostile to us." ”

I thought about it, and then I thought of another question, and said, "You just said that cats represent souls and dogs represent lifespan, but what about rabbits?" ”

"Rabbit, it's gambling, it's random." He sneered: "Anything is possible, maybe it is the soul that has to be handed over, it may be lifespan, of course, it is possible to hand over nothing, but no one's luck will be so good, at least I have never seen it!" ”

"But if you really hand over these, will your wish come true?" I doubt the authenticity of this cross.

"If you want to know, why don't you get out here and try it yourself?" As he spoke, he clenched his fists, pulled out a dagger from his waist, walked slowly towards me, gritted his teeth, and said, "I'm sorry stranger, although I don't know what your purpose is, but I have a wish that must be realized, this time it can only be counted as your life is not good, come back in the next life!" ”

"Don't...!" Before I could shout, he rushed over, holding the knife and stabbing me directly in the heart, it seemed to be very fast, I could see from his movements that this guy was still a practitioner!

At that moment, I subconsciously dodged, but I still took a step slower, and the knife grazed my shoulder, instantly cutting a bloody mark, which made me grin and gasp.

"Are you really?" I looked at the blood-stained knife in his hand, and the whole person was extremely shocked: "You don't know whether this thing is real or fake, kill me, you will be criminally responsible!" ”

He was stunned by what I said, and then laughed: "Criminal responsibility? Do you think I'm still afraid of murder and imprisonment when I get to this point today? Joke! I'm here to give it all! Either you die or I die! ”

He didn't listen to me at all, he rushed over with a knife in his hand, and stabbed me a few times in succession, and I ducked left and right, sweating in my head, and was soon cornered.

"Don't fight back, do you? All right! Let you die a happy death! Seeing that I was forced into a corner, he rushed straight over, and the tip of the knife stabbed straight to the side, and I hurriedly hid to the side, and I heard a "bell" sound, and the tip of the knife pierced the wall!

I took the opportunity to throw an uppercut and slammed it into his face.

This time the force was very strong, he snorted, his body suddenly withdrew and stood unsteadily on the ground, his nose began to bleed, covering his nose with one hand, holding a knife in the other, and sneering: "Okay, let me see how capable you are!" ”

He got up from the ground, and I took two steps back, waved my hand, and said, "Stop!" I don't want to fight you! I also have no wish to fulfill, the opportunity is returned to you, I leave! ”

"Leave? Once you come in, you have to finish the transaction before you can leave, not to mention that you and I are in the Shura Field, unless one person dies, it is impossible to get out at all! ”

"There must be another way, I know them who wear masks." I really don't want to do anything with him, and I kill people like this for no reason, and I'm afraid anyone else will feel uneasy.

But no matter what I said, he didn't listen at all, and rushed over again with a knife in hand.

I looked at him and gritted my teeth, and said, "You forced it!" ”

"Come on!!" He rushed over with a desperate roar.

I took a deep breath, my hand touched the back waist and slowly grabbed the handle of the axe, while he was about a meter away from me, the knife stabbed over, I didn't think too much in my mind, and threw the axe out, but I heard the sound of "bell", the knife stabbed on the axe, and sparked!

He looked at me with a shocked face, his expression was shocked to the extreme, and then he laughed wildly: "Good boy, I was almost deceived by you, pretending to be a good person, and saying that I was not prepared, but I was obviously prepared!" ”

"You say this?" I took two steps back, shook the axe in my hand, raised my eyebrows, and said, "If you want to say that, then I have more than just an axe!" ”

With that, I went to open my backpack and look for something inside.
