"Two paths split out of the yellow woods,

It's a pity that I can't get involved at the same time,

I stood at that intersection for a long time,

I looked out toward a road,

Until it disappears into the depths of the jungle......"

Liang Jingmo chattered and walked slowly through the forest. On his side, Qiu Banxia frowned slightly, looking a little confused about his actions at this time.

After walking for a while, Liang Jingmo suddenly turned around and showed a cheap smile: "Don't you know what I'm talking about?" ”

Without waiting for Qiu Banxia to answer, he immediately picked up the conversation and continued: "What I just memorized was a fragment of a poem, from the poem "The Road Not Taken" by the foreigner Robert Frost, which is a very philosophical poem. ”

"I know." Qiu Banxia said coldly, "Since you are so philosophical, why don't you recite the original original version?" ”

"Because I don't know a foreign language." Liang Jingmo laughed dryly a few times, posing a little embarrassed. It's just that Qiu Banxia has been with him for a long time, so he naturally knows that this guy has no shameless concept at all, not to mention that he doesn't take this matter to heart at all, even if he is poked in a place that he attaches great importance to, I'm afraid it is impossible to really see his embarrassing appearance.

And she also knew that the biggest reason why Liang Jingmo suddenly mentioned this poem at this time was nothing more than to provoke a topic and lure her to ask the question in her heart.

Even if he didn't, she would have been curious for a long time.

"Why did you choose this way?" She asked, "I thought I had made it clear to you." ”

She looked into Liang Jingmo's eyes, raised her voice and emphasized it heavily: "I've seen it, the level on this side is much higher than on the other side, and even if I'm there, I can't control the situation." ”

"It doesn't make sense for you to repeat it, even if you can't say it directly, I know what you're referring to." Liang Jingmo said lazily, "There is a game waiting for me on both sides, so it's still a 'trial type' that is aimed at it." It's just that one side is more relaxed, and it is estimated that it is a host with a lower ranking, and the host on the other side has a higher ranking than you, so it will be a very difficult opponent. ”

He glanced at Qiu Banxia with a smile: "Speaking of which, there are only twelve people who are ranked higher than you, I have already seen that old man here, and it doesn't feel like that nasty type." That guy who wears a paper mask all day is annoying enough, but I feel like you can't do anything about him. ”

"'Masked Man' Fike......"

Qiu Banxia said, and a sneer inadvertently appeared on the corner of his mouth. Although I only watched it once during the "Three Kingdoms Game", I have to admit that Liang Jingmo's intuition about these people is quite accurate. Although there are many legends about Huang Lao when he was young, if the current Huang Lao hosts the game, no matter what, it will not be dangerous in the end.

And if it is Fike, although there is a slight gap between the two in terms of ranking, just like Liang Jingmo said, not only will he be helpless, but he will even have no problem approaching the point of equal participation.

But if it's the host, even if it's yourself......

As soon as I thought of this, Qiu Banxia's heart sank again. At this time, Liang Jingmo, a guy with an abnormal brain, began to chant poetry again.

"But I chose another path,

It's barren and very lonely,

appear more seductive and beautiful,

Although on these two paths,

They rarely leave the footprints of travelers,

Although the leaves fell all over the ground that morning,

Both roads are unpolluted by footprints.

Oh, leave a path and see you another day!

But I know that the path is endless,

I'm afraid I'll not be able to go back ......."

"Enough for you!" Qiu Banxia couldn't help but shout, "You're still addicted to poetry, aren't you!" ”

"Unlucky?" Liang Jingmo replied with a hippie smile.

Qiu Banxia shook his head gently.

"You obviously know it very well, but you just want to go this way, which is in line with your usual style of finding death by yourself when you have nothing to do." "I can vaguely guess it, but in my experience, it's certainly not that simple," she said. ”

Liang Jingmo shook his fingers: "No, it's that simple." I've understood it from the moment you said the path was forking. The harder the level, the more enticing the rewards become, which is the default rule in most games. I don't think it's an exception here. ”

He looked ahead, as if he wanted to pass through the barriers of branches and leaves, and look directly at the reality hidden behind it.

"You asked me at the fork just now, and even gave me a hint, and I'm somewhat grateful for that." "But you didn't get to the most important point, because you know that if I say this, I'll probably choose the most dangerous side." And the reason why I'm really going this way now is because of this simple reason. ”

"The game on this island can be chosen to be accepted or not, or at least to trigger key plot points to get involved, right?" he said. ”

There is no need for the other party to answer, looking at Qiu Banxia's expression at this time, he knows that he guessed correctly. For others, this may be a good thing to do, because as long as you stick to the games that can be risky, you can avoid most of the dangers and survive on this island. Not to mention that Liang Jingmo has an amazing amount of chips on his body at this time, even if he doesn't do anything, just relying on these chips to exchange for materials and equipment, he can live a very nourishing life here.

However, Liang Jingmo's thinking is completely in two directions from ordinary people, when others think of "too good, you can choose not to accept it", his first reaction is "How to make people accept it?" ”。

In other words, no matter how the forest path diverges, or even if the other party only leaves a path for him to come from the beginning, if the game can be accepted or not, then he can go around it or skip the game in another way. Not only that, but all games on this island should be like this, if you want players to participate, you have to use very clever methods to get them to jump in, and low-level moves like blocking intersections can be completely ineffective when the opponent is already on guard. In this way, wouldn't all the previous preparations be in vain?

But on the other hand, how do you get players to actively accept the game?

"That's why you didn't tell me." Liang Jingmo said, "As you may have guessed, the rewards of the game are directly proportional to the difficulty of the game, so most of the prizes on the other side are not tempting enough, I can skip them, but if the difficulty here is high enough, maybe the prizes will have a lot to do with the event I have been chasing all the way." Let me guess ......"

He raised his head: "The prize is the qualification to participate in the 'White Night Festival' in three days." They judged from my hoarding and other performances that I needed this, and they used it as bait to get me to take the game on this side. Needless to say, there must be dangers in this, and this is just one step to solve my potential trouble. ”

The more he spoke, the smoother it became, and the corners of his mouth even unconsciously showed a sneer: "It's just that I'm afraid there are different opinions within the organizers." Maybe some people want me to go in and stir up the situation, or some people want to stay stable and don't want me to participate, but at the same time they don't approve of using this thing as a prize bait, for fear that if I win, it will turn into the situation that I fear the most, so there is another very tempting path, which is another option. Some of them hoped that I could survive in a safer way and find another chance in the future; Others wanted to use a low-difficulty game to kill my will and see if I was really that persistent. In general, they don't want me to go in the difficult direction. ”

"But you just went there." Qiu Banxia sighed, "I can't tell which kind of person I belong to, it's just that at the beginning, I saw you killing time there and didn't want to move, I thought you had already figured it out, and planned to give up those ideas that were too difficult to realize first, and observe the situation, but I didn't expect you to still ......"

"After all, it's one of the rules of gambling." Liang Jingmo smiled, "Always do what the other party doesn't want you to do, so that you have a chance to win." After all, even if the host is ranked highest, it may not always be a monolith. ”

There is obviously a mystery in what he said. Qiu Banxia looked at his eyes, as if she wanted to look directly into his soul through these deep eyes. After a while, she finally nodded and said, "So you have other plans, right?" ”

"It's easy to talk to smart people." Liang Jingmo said with a smile.

"Don't talk nonsense, before you get to the game venue, hurry up and explain what you want to explain." Qiu Banxia said angrily. Liang Jingmo's sentence just now hid two meanings. "High-ranking host" here can refer to the one that Qiu Banxia is afraid of, that is, the person Liang Jingmo will meet along the way, but at the same time, it can also refer to Qiu Banxia himself. On the surface, Liang Jingmo seems to be cheering himself up, saying that no matter how good the host is, the game designed by the host may not be flawless.

But when he said this, his eyes looked at Qiu Banxia, which seemed to mean that he needed Qiu Banxia's iron plate to loosen up and help him do something at the edge of the rules.

"I need you to go now, go find Xiang Nanxing, and then ......"

He attached himself to Qiu Banxia's ear and said his next plan in a very low volume close to the sound of air. Qiu Banxia's face was already extremely well controlled, but the slightly raised eyebrows still slightly revealed the surprise in her heart.

It took a few seconds for her to come out of this emotion. She glanced at Liang Jingmo deeply, as if she knew the man in front of her for the first time. "I see." She said solemnly, taking a small step back.

"Yourself...... Be careful yourself. She hesitated for a moment, but finally said something that was not suitable for the host's identity.

Liang Jingmo smiled and nodded, standing there watching Qiu Banxia simply turn around, start, and run quickly to the other side. It wasn't until that back disappeared from the field of vision, and after a long time, that Liang Jingmo retracted his gaze, turned his head, and looked again in the direction of the deep path under his feet.

What kind of things await you there?

"Maybe somewhere in many years,

I will look back on the past with a soft sigh,

Two paths split out in a wood,

And I chose the one with fewer people,

From then on, the path of my life was determined. ”

He finished the poem slowly, and walked into the depths of the jungle as he walked.
