Twenty-three: The Shadows

Starting from the hand stretched out to Ren Shijun, the middle-aged man began to dissipate as a whole, and finally turned into nothingness.

Ren Shijun stood in the store, stunned.

On the other side, in Ning Xiuyuan's dream.

The thin thread that fell from the starry sky disappeared first, and now it was cotton wool that was tied to the man, and Ning Xiuyuan kicked him, so he writhed like a maggot.

"Can you put on another show?"

This is the material he can perform in the script in the future.

The man lying on the ground rolled over and rolled around.

"That ......, sir, don't torture me."

Good guy, you can bend and stretch, right?

Seeing that Ning Xiuyuan was about to kick him again, he hurriedly spoke:

"Your Excellency... We are the same kind, no, how can adults be like me, adults are extremely sacred. ”

Ning Xiuyuan stopped moving, "What kind of statement, the same kind?" ”

He squinted his eyes and lifted his feet.

"Don't you see, sir?"

Ning Xiuyuan stepped on it, and the man snorted in pain, and then changed his words.

“…… I am a half-finished product, an existence between strange talk and ordinary people......" He glanced at Ning Xiuyuan cautiously.

It seems to have been deliberated for a moment.

"Your Excellency, too."

Before Ning Xiuyuan got down.

"There are some strange stories that are more special, just like [Life Grocery Store], I was selected by it, and then became its clerk."

It seemed that seeing Ning Xiuyuan's gradually gloomy face, he was secretly bitter, which was undoubtedly a pain point for people like them.

Gotta remedy it.

"Your Excellency... You're new to this realm, and you haven't been to the [Shadows] yet, I can take you there. ”

Although he didn't know what he was talking about, Ning Xiuyuan still looked at it slightly.

He would rather see a man's performance.

So one of the man's eyeballs crawled forward, with a bulge behind it and a dense string of nerve fibers.

"Sir, just hold it."

The cold in his heart or something, no, Ning Xiuyuan held it through the cotton wool.

Then he looked at the man on the ground.

Like a judge in a high position, the sense of oppression is extremely strong.

"Your Excellency...... Please release this rope as well......"

He breathed for a moment, waiting for the judge's verdict.

The thin line that had hung from the sky had drained him of all his spirituality in an instant, and he knew that he had messed with the wrong people.

Because of the particularity of his identity, it is not that he is afraid that he will die, but that he is afraid of pain.

Thin cotton wool wrapped around him, tough, like piano strings, the same thing that had fallen from the sky before.

Then he saw that Ning Xiuyuan had just come here, and he admitted that he was a little panicked, he was afraid of death.

The vision returned to Ning Xiuyuan.

He chuckled, then let go of the batting.

Who? Don't even do a little insurance?

The man stood up, his inner thoughts bouncing around.

"Adult ......"

He called out and bent respectfully.

He wouldn't be stupid enough to remind a guy who is stronger than himself to enter the [Shadows].

It was a big knife in front of Guan Gongmen.

Then Ning Xiuyuan's vision suddenly darkened, and the sky swirled, and he clenched his fists.

Then a little red spark rose in the darkness.

I feel like throwing up a little, hold back.

Within the visible eye of the vision, the man bent over, flashing white light.

If you look closely, you can see the outline of a small shop in the white light.

And Ning Xiuyuan's head was a black light cluster, and then half of his body was a puppet, which reminded him of the days when he was a puppet.

Under the weather.

Then there was a blank space, and a blank slate, and there was a dead air lingering on the body.

After all, I died once.

There are a lot of strange talks on it, and he is also a ruthless character.

The man sighed silently in his heart.

The number of Twisted Tales represents the number of traits he gains, which is also the number of curses.

"Your Excellency...... That black ...... above your head It's the ...... left by [Death Crow]"

The dead crow symbolizes death, and there is really a lot of dead air on the body, I'm afraid that I won't die violently in a while, it's better to stay away, this kind of person.

"I know." The tone is flat.

No big deal, it's my pet.

Is black a "dead crow"? So white should be the "nameless person", and the body represents the puppet?

"What's your name?"

Ning Xiuyuan took a step forward, and then the man hurriedly followed.

"My name is Bud, but everyone calls me Little Six, Lord."

Open and close your mouth is an adult, it's really ......

Good to hear, Ning Xiuyuan commented.

Then the man walked in front and exposed his back to Ning Xiuyuan.

"This is Grandma's realm, and the points of light you see are the traces left by some strange talks."

Is it?

Ning Xiuyuan looked at the nearest point of light, waited until his pupils were focused, and then saw the appearance clearly.

It was the room, a small, narrow room, with the walls covered in eyes one by one, and they were moving around.

"That's the guy who just died a few days ago, and then it became a weird talk, a voyeur hobby before his life, and now he has no wisdom."

Ah this, Ning Xiuyuan nodded.

Like an official who has come to make rounds.

"Tell me about your business here......

There are spots of light floating in the dark, and the feet seem to be starry skies, which he is familiar with.

"This weird story likes to give other people's things, usually business cards or something, and then go to find someone else, and ask for someone else's life."

The scene in the point of light is a pile of twisted corpses stacked on top of each other.

"It's trapped in [Blind Town], and it can't get out for the time being, and some people don't know that it exists, and think that its killing rules belong to the weird talk in the town."

"My lord, are you from [Blind Town]? Your tabula rasa is the curse of that weird town talk. ”

"That weird talk in the town will continue to curse the people who escape, usually turning into relatives or something."

Father?

The way to get the trait is as simple as triggering the curse of the tale and then breaking it.

Ning Xiuyuan put aside his distracting thoughts and looked at a point of light beside him.

A mass grave, a place he was familiar with.

It's from the last script, that place.

"The nest of those scavengers, they have recently created an abyss......"

Are ghouls at the bottom end of the chain of contempt?

"Recently, there has been a [Divine Favorite] there, which is also a rare thing......

Divine Favorite? Isn't that what he did?

So......

Is it in the same world?

Also, according to the time, it should also be in the future, after his death, and then into the script, about 1 month.

But now it's when I'm 12 years old......

His timing in the script is different, so what about the time paradox?

If he dies now, will there be a future for him?

Without the future, he would not have entered the stage.

Without entering the stage, he can't go back to the present.

If you can't go back to the present, you won't die now......

Ning Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment, and then hid the change in his expression.

Secretly feel the connection with the [Divine Favorite].

There is a ......, and it is indeed Liling Qingxue.

The man in front stopped.

"Your Excellency, you should now carve your mark here......

Then you'll be able to come here on your own. ”

In front of him was a point of light.

Ning Xiuyuan looked carefully, it was a shop, and the person sitting in it was Xiao Liu.

Looks quite arrogant.

Ning Xiuyuan didn't know why that sentence came to his mind again:

"Surrender to me, lowly human."
