Chapter 500: It's not that the husband can plug it in if he wants to, and he can pull it out if he wants to!
The Demon Queen did not recognize the mistake, and the four words that slowly read out of Shi Xiaobai's mouth were indeed "Open the Sesame Door", that is, the password to exit the instruction.
This is the corresponding command for the trialist to take the initiative to quit the Nine Turns Transcendent Tower!
Shi Xiaobai didn't know that he had suddenly become popular in the Xia Kingdom, nor did he know that his trial in the Nine Turns of the Transcendent Pagoda had become a matter of national concern, and of course, he didn't know that countless people in the Xia Kingdom were waiting and discussing how long he could stay on the eighth layer, arguing whether he could break the five-hour record set by the King of Conquest.
He didn't know all this, and even if he knew, Shi Xiaobai would still read out the exit command at this time!
Why?
Because Shi Xiaobai is anxious to know the truth!
Why did Li Wuyu die?
How did Li Wuyu die?
Is Li Wuyu really dead?
What really happened then?
How did he become the "murderer" who killed Li Wuyu?
The truth of all this, Shi Xiaobai desperately wants to know.
Contrary to the "truth" that the Demon Queen said, in fact, Shi Xiaobai's guess that the Demon Queen was a trial procedure was only logical reasoning and no evidence, and he didn't guess that the Demon King's mission was to clear the conditions for the seventh layer, and even if he guessed, it would never be possible to kill Li Wuyu because of this.
He fell into a coma when he "scratched" Ye Wuqing, and he didn't regain consciousness until he woke up in the Demon King's bedroom, and Shi Xiaobai didn't know anything about what happened during this period.
Of course, the big lies told by the demon queen, the earth-shattering conspiracy she thinks, and the "hypocrites" she accuses can't be true.
Shi Xiaobai is never willing to hurt his partners even if he sacrifices himself, and the royal road he advocates may not be absolutely righteous, but it will never be ruthless and unjust.
Therefore, when the demon queen sneered and accused him, Shi Xiaobai only felt ridiculous, thinking that it was just the demon queen who wanted to make trouble again, so he responded with a sneer and did not argue.
However, when he was forcibly teleported to the eighth layer by the trial rules, and the familiar hot voice of the absolute option sounded in his mind, Shi Xiaobai suddenly remembered this option that he had almost forgotten.
Remembering that completing the king's mission meant killing Li Wuyu, who was set as a god king, and the declaration of the end of the option meant that he had completed the king's mission.
Shi Xiaobai was shocked to realize that everything the Demon Queen said was probably not all false.
Li Wuyu's death is likely to be true.
The fact that he killed Li Wuyu with his own hands is also very likely to be true.
Otherwise, why is the absolute option declared complete?
And the behavior of the paper farmer and the others when he woke up just now was really strange, now that he thinks about it carefully, it turns out that the paper farmer and Feng Yuanlan wanted to test whether they remembered whether they remembered killing Li Wuyu after falling into a coma, and they wanted to hide this cruel truth.
From all of the above, Shi Xiaobai deduced that what the demon queen said was not a lie.
But, why did the comatose past self do this?
Was it the sudden onset of the side effects of the Fallen Force, allowing himself to attack Li Wuyu without being completely conscious?
Or did he subconsciously want to kill Li Wuyu to complete the absolute option, so his body was driven by instinct after falling unconscious?
Shi Xiaobai has no way to judge the former, but for the latter, Shi Xiaobai has just carried out "inner self-torture", and has clearly affirmed that this is impossible.
Even if the absolute option fails, time being reset will make everything experienced during this time come to naught, and everything will start again, but this is not enough to make Shi Xiaobai give up his "royal road" - sacrificing others, or even sacrificing Li Wuyu's friend, to lead to an ending that is beneficial to him, which is completely contrary to Shi Xiaobai's royal road!
Shi Xiaobai would rather do everything all over again, and would rather choose option three to leave the Nine Turns Transcendent Tower, rather than kill Li Wuyu for such a "boring" reason, such a subconscious is absolutely non-existent!
Regarding this, Shi Xiaobai has enough confidence in himself.
Therefore, he thought that it was not that simple for him to kill Li Wuyu.
And by the extension of this thinking, Shi Xiaobai immediately thought of one of the biggest doubts and contradictions.
- Since killing Li Wuyu is to complete the mission of the Demon King, why is the absolute option not completed immediately when Li Wuyu is "killed" by him, but the absolute option is announced to be completed the moment he reaches the eighth layer?
What's the difference?
Or is there something else going on?
As soon as Shi Xiaobai thought of this, he saw the demon queen appear out of thin air, walking towards him with a "maliciously" smile, and Shi Xiaobai did not hesitate to read out the exit command.
He didn't have time to listen to the Demon Queen's sarcasm now, and he was in no mood to argue with the Demon Queen, he just wanted to return to the human world as soon as possible to find out the truth, at least to see Li Wuyu's corpse with his own eyes, and ask Ye Wuqing and the others what happened at that time.
Compared with the truth that is desperately trying to figure out, the so-called trial, the so-called honor, the so-called opportunity, are not worth mentioning!
Shi Xiaobai finished reading the exit instruction and thought about leaving here.
But after a few seconds, until the Demon Queen suddenly came to him from a distance at great speed, the exit command still did not work as it should.
"Open Sesame!"
Shi Xiaobai read it again, but it still had no effect.
A playful smile appeared on the Demon Queen's face, and she chuckled: "I finally reached the eighth layer with great effort, but I suddenly used the exit command, and the husband still acted so unreasonably...... But it's a pity that the eighth layer is very chaste, and it's not that the husband can insert it if he wants to, let alone pull it out if he wants to. ”
The demon queen suddenly changed her painting style again, calling herself "husband" again, and her mouth was full of sassy words, Shi Xiaobai couldn't help but roll her eyes and frown.
The demon queen had a charming smile on the corner of her mouth, but there was no trace of flattery in her eyes, and she said: "Could it be that the husband is in a hurry to go out and destroy any evidence?" Don't worry, the husband planned this matter seamlessly, if it weren't for the rules of the trial, even the concubine would have been deceived by the husband. ”
Shi Xiaobai sighed when he heard this, hesitated for a moment, and finally didn't open his mouth to explain to the Demon Queen.
The first is that he doesn't think there is a need to explain to the Demon Queen, and the second is that he doesn't think that the Demon Queen will believe his explanation, besides, Li Wuyu's "death", even Ye Wuqing and others think that he is a murderer, then this is likely to be one of the "truths", even if it is not his subjective will, but if it is his body that "kills" Li Wuyu, then it is impossible for him to clear the relationship.
Therefore, Shi Xiaobai did not choose to use the mouth cannon to prove his "innocence" to the demon queen, but asked in a deep voice: "Why can't you use the exit order? Is it because the eighth layer stipulates that the exit order cannot be used? Or did you deliberately use your authority to prohibit the exit order?"
"Uh, how can the husband wronged the concubine?"
The demon queen said pitiful words, but there was a playful look on her face, and she laughed playfully: "The husband suddenly used the exit order, and the concubine was also startled, where could she react? But fortunately, the eighth layer stipulates ...... Trialists can only succeed or fail, not run away or quit!"
Shi Xiaobai felt helpless, and immediately asked, "What should I do to be considered a failure?"
The Demon Queen covered her mouth and smiled: "Husband is really strange, for more than 10,000 years, countless trialists have tried their best to ascend to the eighth layer, but they all failed miserably, and Husband Jun finally got his wish to the eighth layer with great difficulty, but why did he suddenly think about leaving?"
Shi Xiaobai sighed lightly and said, "Whether you believe it or not, this king just wants to go back and check on Li Wuyu's 'corpse' now, ask others about the situation, and then find a way to find out the truth." ”
"Oh...... I see. ”
The demon queen smiled and said: "The husband is really in a hurry to go out to check whether Li Wuyu's 'corpse' has left any traces, and wants to destroy it so that the truth can never be understood, husband, but it is really cautious, yes, every step of the husband is thoughtful when playing chess, this point, the concubine body could not be clearer." ”
Regarding the sneer of the demon queen, Shi Xiaobai shook his head helplessly, and he had no intention of continuing to explain, he said in a deep voice: "Since you want to think so, then think so." In short, this king only wants to leave the Nine Turns Transcendent Pagoda now, and it doesn't matter whether he succeeds or fails. Even if you don't want to tell this king how to leave, at least please tell this king what is the mission of the eighth layer?"
As soon as Shi Xiaobai reached the eighth layer, the voice of the absolute option immediately sounded, he was shocked and confused by this sudden "announcement of the end", so he didn't listen carefully to the customary introduction of the trial land every time he arrived at the new layer of the world, but now that he thought about it carefully, the introduction he didn't listen to seriously seemed to be just "nonsense" with no useful information?
The demon queen squinted her eyes and said with a charming smile: "If you can, the concubine really wants her husband to stay by her concubine's side forever and never tell her husband how to leave this world." But helplessly, the trial rules stipulate that the concubine must serve as the 'guide' of the eighth layer, and there is really no way. ”
Shi Xiaobai breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, he was really a little worried that this "brainless" trial procedure against him would be determined not to tell him what the task of the eighth layer was, if this was the case, he wouldn't even know how to fail, wouldn't he never want to leave the eighth layer? Fortunately, there were trial rules that could restrain the wayward demon queen.
"What is the mission of the eighth layer?"
Shi Xiaobai asked in a deep voice again.
"The quest of the eighth layer...... It's actually quite simple. ”
The demon queen blinked, and when she spoke, she was not ashamed to use the tone particles that cute girls were used to, and spit out such cute and charming voices as "ah" and "what" with this mature and charming face, which made Shi Xiaobai feel deep "malice".
The Demon Queen then took a long breath and hung her appetite before she chuckled and said, "The task of the eighth layer is very simple, you only need to ...... Complete an option. ”
"Huh?"
Shi Xiaobai was stunned.
How is it an "option" again?
As soon as Shi Xiaobai heard the word "option" now, he felt that his scalp was numb and uncomfortable!
