Volume 2: The Game of Zero Chapter 21

"What? Empty head, can't think of people? Ning Yu smiled sarcastically, "Do you remember the last conversation we had when we first met at the Starry Sky Theater?" ”

Ning He was shocked and looked at Ning Yu deadly.

Ning Yu smiled indifferently, and a cup appeared in his hand.

Red wine in a glass.

He took a sip.

Of course you'll remember, after all, it was the first time in your life that you were facing your true self. Before that, you never thought that you would be such a person, you thought that 'Madame' had brought you into the light and taught you civilization, only to find that you were still so ugly. Ning Yu, you still haven't walked out of that alley. ”

Ning He was in a trance, and his thoughts took him back to the conversation in the Starry Sky Theater.

......

Starry Sky Theatre.

"So... If you sacrifice your own life - to save Su Wenxiao and the tens of millions of people in the audience! You! Would you like to?! ”

Ning He looked at that hideous face, and suddenly thought in his heart, if there would be a day when he would show people with such a face? After all, Ning Yu's current appearance was no different from him.

Time ticked by, and at some point a huge clock with a simple and elegant shape appeared on the red curtain of the theater, and the second hand rotated round and round, followed by the minute hand.

Ning Yu sneered: "Why don't you speak?" ”

Ning He was silent, his brows furrowed deeper and deeper, and his eyes wavered.

"Did you suddenly find that you were not as great as you thought? What's going on in your mind right now? What kind of reasons is X trying to use to embellish his answer? Or, thinking about how to convince yourself? ”

Ning He's body trembled slightly, and he looked down at the smooth floor reflected by the light, and there was an extremely faint hazy outline in the floor, and he couldn't see anything clearly.

After a long time, Ning He raised his head and looked at Ning Yu in confusion and slowly shook his head, "I don't know." ”

Ning Yu showed such an expression, he clapped his hands and smiled: "This is the 'weight of life', when a person has the possibility of life, he will never die, even if it is persecuted by thousands of people and scolded by thousands of people." Time flows endlessly, what you experience is constantly changing, and your thoughts at every moment will affect your final choice. Next, let's change the question. ”

Ning Yu looked deeply at the human being who was exuding pain in front of him.

"Are you willing to use your life to save the lives of people you think are important in your life?"

Ning He was silent again. His thoughts no longer knew where to fly, it was like overlapping dreams, he entered the sea of knowledge, he passed through the gate of the virtual realm, and he met another 'self'. And now, it was as if his consciousness had entered another dimension.

In the space stood two black and white villains, who were fiercely quarrelling.

Ning He walked in, and the black and white villain turned his head to look at him at the same time, and Ning He had expected to highlight a breath of turbidity, and sure enough, it was his face.

The black and white villain is his embodied heart, and the villain argues about simple questions, whether to sacrifice himself and save others.

When the little white man was still looking at Ning He.

The black man punched the white man in the face, and the white man was covered with a strange ripple, which was the power of the black man.

The black villain shouted loudly: "Don't save, don't save!" Everyone has their own way, why use our way to continue theirs! Don't save! ”

"Bastard!" The black villain's punch had no effect on the white villain, but he roared angrily and punched back. This time, the ripples of power were transmitted on the body of the black figure. "Why don't you save! Ning Yu said that he is an important person in our lives! Since it is an important person, of course we should save it! ”

The black villain looked at the white villain coldly, "We can do our best, instead of putting our own lives on the line, didn't you hear Ning Yu's words before, the weight of life is immeasurable!" ”

"What does he say? You've got a sick head, aren't you? If you don't fight for your life, how can you do your best?! ”

The two villains couldn't convince anyone, and finally scuffled together, and they wrestled and rolled around, not forgetting to continue to debate 'save or not'.

Ning He stood aside and watched silently, he didn't stop it, and he didn't speak. The dialogue of the black and white villain is exactly the entanglement in his heart, in the face of such a mysterious and unknown existence as Ning Yu, he wants to unload everything, he wants to follow his heart.

While Ning Yu was playing the game, it was not his peaceful journey of inquiry.

In the pitch-black space, the fight between the two villains and Ning He standing on the side constitute the whole picture, and neither the black villain nor the white villain has the upper hand. The two villains were a little tired from fighting, and they released their little hands that were pulling each other almost at the same time, and sat on the ground with their butts.

The two black and white little heads looked at Ning He together, and said in unison: "Who do you support?!" ”

At this moment, Ning He smiled, and there was indescribable freedom and indescribable comfort in his smile.

His mind suddenly opened up at this moment, and all his thoughts were connected into a line. Ning He thought to himself, I'm afraid that the epiphany mentioned in the book is nothing more than this.

He said seriously to the two black and white villains in front of him: "If a person I think is important, then I will do anything to save it, even if it is at the cost of my life." Ning Yu is right, the weight and scale of life are immeasurable, and there is no comparative relationship between one person and tens of millions of people. In the same way, if Su Wenxiao is the one who needs to be saved......"

He took a deep breath and asked himself, "I will do my best to save until the end of my life." I will make any deal with the devil just so that she can live well, at any cost. I would be more willing to save tens of millions of people while saving her, but these tens of millions of people are just an addition to my efforts to save Su Wenxiao. Ning Yu asked me before, if I had to choose between Su Wenxiao and tens of millions of people, I would choose Su Wenxiao. Let me trade my life for the lives of thousands of unrelated people, I will try to save it as much as I can, but if I have to use my life as a bargaining chip, I ......"

Ning He hesitated a little, and finally made up his mind to spit out three words: "I refuse." ”

The moment he finished speaking, Ning He felt a sense of relief.

The black and white villains in front of them glanced at each other, and they turned into two clusters of light and merged into Ning He's chest.

"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! ”

Applause rang out one after another, and the dark space slowly faded its shell, and the space was like a black curtain being lifted. Ning He found himself back in the center of the stage, while Ning Yu sat in the audience and applauded him one by one.

"Yes, yes, you may not be a hero, but you will be a good friend." Ning Yu applauded and said with a smile: "It's still a long time, we will meet many times, and I'm looking forward to your changes." A month, half a year, three years, ten years, you have to go through a lot of things, there will be more and more nicks in your life, and I look forward to what they can shape you into now. ”

Ning Yu got up from his seat, and he stepped over the space distance between the two of them and came to Ning He.

Shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands: "Finally, I would like to remind you, many things will happen in a thought, don't wait until you lose it, and then regret it." The time you have been walking on your heart is enough to make that moment an eternal pain. ”

At the exit of the theater, Ning Yu put one hand on the doorknob and patted the other hand on Ning He's shoulder.

"I'm waiting for you to trade with me, we don't have to trade your life all at once." He smiled mysteriously and said, "We can divide it into batches, the weight of life is worth you to trade with me a few more times, and it won't get in the way." ”

At this time, Ning He's expression was a little dazed, and he nodded indifferently.

Ning Yu held the doorknob and gently pulled the door to open the door for him.

......

Ning He came back to his senses, only to see Ning Yu, who was sitting opposite, said leisurely: "You didn't make friends in middle school, if you hadn't been invited by Ye Qingyun in college, you might have been isolated from the world and lived alone for four years, is it wrong for me to say that?" ”

Ning He was silent.

Seeing this, Ning Yu continued: "Don't worry, you have plenty of time to think about the important people in your life or the people you care about. He glanced at the remaining six covered cards on the table, "Su Wenxiao and Yang Hu, who grew up together and are regarded as family members. ”

"Gu Ziqing, lover."

"Ye Qingyun, the enlightener of wit, will open the door to a new world for you, friend."

"Chen Yuan and Lin Ling, two partners who are moving side by side."

Ning Yu listed them one by one for him, and finally snapped his fingers lightly, and said with a smile: "Don't embarrass you, since you want 'madam', then I'll give it to you." ”

A covered card on the triangular table automatically turned over, and it floated in front of Ning He.

Ning He looked up at the picture on the card, which was the silhouette of the lady leading him out of the dark alley.

Ning He said softly, "Thank you." He took the card.

Ning Yu raised his eyebrows, "Yo, you still say thank you, I thought you wanted to kill me with a knife." ”

Ning He replied lightly: "Of course it's best to stab you to death." ”

"Tsk." He shook his head and gestured, motioning for Ning He to continue choosing.

"Gray Shadow."

Ning He looked at Ning Yu, trying to find something from his expression, but found nothing. He reached out and opened a picture of a gray shadow from the table, and the gray-white clouds were shining brightly.

"Go on."

"Chen Qiusheng."

Flipping over the card, the card is drawn with a picture of the old man lying on the recliner in front of the library of Baiyun University, and the morning sun pours down, making the old man also have a hint of redness.

The moment Ning He saw the picture, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and he trembled a little and said, "Old man." ”

He stretched out his hand and pressed it on a covered card, looked at Ning Yu, and added, "The person who raised me back then." After speaking, he slowly flipped it open, and couldn't help but stretch his neck to look at the picture on the card, his eyes were red.

The card depicts an old man in rags, sitting on a machine in an abandoned factory and waving at Ning He.

"Mo Wentong."

The card has a serious face, and in the background is a yellow bus, which Ning and they used to ride every weekend in middle school, and they took it back to the Morning Star Orphanage, where they took it to school to start the week.

"What about the last one?" Ning Yu's eyes flickered and looked at Ning He.

"Zero."

"Oh?"
