Chapter 250: The Shadow Behind the Curtain (4,000 words)
On this night, no one knew what was going on, and all the residents of Blackgate always vaguely felt as if there was a certain melody echoing in their heads.
Angry, angry, hum!
It's a very vague feeling, either in the dreams of the sleepers, or in the blurred vision of the drunkards, who see this slender shadow, who sees her kicking the garbage can in the street, who is depressed eating ice cream on the side of the road, who is floating in the lake by the lake.
Pulling his face, pouting, and gurgling with his little fists.
She's angry......
She seems to be really angry with someone......
The people of Black Gate City all had this feeling, but it was vague, not real, and after coming to their senses, they had forgotten it.
Only Xiao Huan was unaffected.
After leaving the soft, he was in a good mood, especially thinking about the advertisement that had spread to the entire stranger circle through the soft's hand, and he almost laughed out loud.
It's really thanks to Miss Jukebox that I can think of such a good way.
After stopping a car on the street at midnight, he ended his busy day and returned to the alley where he was located.
As he entered the alley where the street lamp had been broken for a long time, he took a deep breath and went to look at the three dogs first.
Well, they're still three separate entities, and they haven't turned into conjoined monsters or anything.
And at the end of the alley, I could see that the butcher was faintly flickering in the window of the butcher's shop, and the butcher seemed to be watching television, and this time it was not just a mess of snowflakes, but some kind of program was playing.
The quietness and serenity in the alley contrasts sharply with the chaos and brutality of the previous battle with the Brander.
This feeling made Xiao Huan feel quite comfortable, and took out three ham sausages that he had bought a long time ago from his pocket, and peeled them one by one for the three dogs to eat.
At the same time, he didn't forget to persuade them worriedly: "In the future, I should play less with the big snake sisters, it's too unhealthy!" ”
This time, don't say that Erha squinted at him, and the other two were also eating stuffy, pretending not to hear.
"Words ......"
Looking at these three dogs, Xiao Huan suddenly thought of a question: "What are these three dogs?" ”
According to the understanding of the aborigines, these three dogs are just some kind of projection in their own spiritual world, such as seeing a person on the street, and then projecting this person from their own brains, then this person actually has nothing to do with the person they see, one is real, and the other is outlined by their own brain according to their impressions, from this theory, the three-headed dog of hell summoned by themselves has nothing to do with these three dogs in essence......
The butcher is too, in reality he is just a father who has lost his daughter, and he may have broken a little law.
But in his own vision, he is a terrible monster with a brutal and ferocious man's power......
However, in reality, I did feel a deeper relationship with them every time I summoned them to fight.
So, what is the relationship between myself and the three dogs and the butcher in reality?
A more important question is, if they really have nothing to do with themselves, wouldn't it be a loss to feed them ham sausages every time they come back?
"Why can't it be understood as ......"
Just as Xiao Huan was thinking about this question, a melodious voice suddenly sounded in his ears: "When you summoned them, they also had a dream, and in the dream they turned into three-headed dogs of hell and fought side by side with you?" ”
This sudden sentence made Xiao Huan feel slightly shocked.
But he didn't show it on his face, just turned around quietly, looked up, and saw a slender shadow behind the white curtain on the second floor, looking at him condescendingly.
No one could be seen, only her shadow cast on the white curtains.
But Xiao Huan could clearly feel that the shadow was looking at him quietly, and there seemed to be a little ...... in his eyes Dissatisfied?
He smiled and said, "So, the spirit is connected?" ”
This explains a lot of things, such as why the intimacy between the two parties will skyrocket after buying it, and there is a sense of spiritual connection.
"It's an ocean."
The slender shadow behind the curtain said lightly: "Everything in the ocean is intertwined with each other, and there are many things that will not exist in reality, such as the melody of a song, such as a glimpse of a look on the street, such as a scar in the depths of memory, these things cannot be stored in reality, but in the spiritual world, as long as they exist, they can be retained, and because of its own particularity, it has different spiritual powers, forming a special element." ”
Xiao Huan chatted with the shepherd, Yang Jia, and Mr. Ye.
But listening, it doesn't seem to be as direct and thorough as the shadow behind the curtain.
He let out a deep sigh, looked up at the slender shadow and smiled, "You're finally willing to talk to me." ”
"Can you not speak?"
It's okay not to ask, this question, the slender shadow suddenly has a bit of a breathless taste: "If you don't speak again, you will be sold." ”
"The wishing mechanism is online? Still advertising? Still 99% off? ”
"Aren't you afraid I'll be tired?"
“……”
Xiao Huan was a little helpless for a moment, paused for a moment, and then said carefully: "Then will you be tired?" ”
“…… No. ”
The shadow behind the curtain puffed up, "But I don't like to lend things to others, I've been robbed of a lot of things!" ”
Xiao Huan was surprised: "So you can't get it back?" ”
"Of course you can take it back!"
The slender shadow was louder, as if announcing something: "That's my thing!" ”
"Hoo ......"
Xiao Huan breathed a sigh of relief, he already had more than 50% of the parasitism in Black Gate City, so he had already sensed a lot of secrets, and he had long known that these things could be taken back.
And seeing this Miss Record Player appear, or rather, this is not Miss Record Player, but the person behind Miss Record Player, willing to talk to herself through a thin curtain, the mood is also a little happier.
After learning about the plans and materials left by the elder, and having conversations with the shepherd, Yang Jia, who had a glimpse of the secret of the mysterious source, Mr. Ye and others, he had already figured out some questions, and he knew that he needed to talk to the mysterious lady on the second floor.
But she seems to be very careful, and has only communicated with herself through the record player, guiding herself, but never really shows up.
Until this moment, it was my first formal communication with her.
"I can feel your presence."
Xiao Huan looked at the window on the second floor and said softly: "I felt it a long time ago, and I can also feel the feeling that you are cautious, always longing for something, but afraid of something......"
"I want to know, the Black Gate Fog Incident experienced in Black Gate City before almost destroyed everything left by the old leader, and almost killed all the people who could be considered loyal at that time, but you didn't do anything to ......"
"Can't, or don't you dare?"
“……”
This shadow that appeared on the second floor seemed to have come with some questioning emotions, but unexpectedly, Xiao Huan suddenly asked himself such a question.
It's like I've thought about it a long time ago.
She was a little silent, unsure if she should talk to him about it now.
But he had already shown up, and he had already been asked such a question, so he had to say sullenly: "Yes." ”
"It's like the ferryman of the River Styx, who was imprisoned in a person's body by you, so it was killed so easily by you when it shouldn't have the concept of death."
"I don't dare bet on one person."
“……”
Xiao Huan listened carefully to her words, his heart suddenly beat slightly, and he looked up curiously:
"So, I guessed right, but I'm also a brander?"
“……”
The shadow behind the curtain on the second floor was silent for a long time, and said, "It's a little different in nature, but you can understand it this way." ”
"I can choose different people, I used to hope for some people, but unfortunately, these people have betrayed me."
"Unlike other mysterious sources, their imprinters are all chosen by their own hands, and are always driven and manipulated by them, while I can only choose passively."
"Even more unfortunate, most of my branders woke up before me!"
"I only have twelve chances, and so far, I've failed seven times, and now this is the eighth ......"
“……”
Xiao Huan's heart moved slightly: "The eighth time will not disappoint you, right?" ”
"Nope."
The shadow behind the curtain said coldly: "The first seven times were just ghosts and ignored me, and the eighth time this made me miserable......"
Speaking of this, she even changed her voice a little, as if she was a complaining little girl: "Obviously I want to test you, obviously you should work hard to gain my trust little by little, but why ......"
She paused, as if searching for the right words: "...... The other way around? ”
“……”
Xiao Huan was also a little speechless all of a sudden.
I'm obviously very kind, why did I leave such an impression?
At the same time, he also vaguely understood a lot, so, this is the true face of the twelve mysterious paths?
The will of the world, which has been swallowed up, is trying to survive, and her will to survive is divided into twelve parts, and now, Black Gate City belongs to the one that has been activated.
It was precisely because Xiao Huan learned from Mr. Ye that the mysterious path of Black Gate City had been activated as early as when the old president was still alive, so he vaguely guessed that the woman behind the curtain should have existed before the old president died.
But in the incident of the Black Gate Fog, she didn't make a move.
If it were an ordinary mysterious source in other cities, it would be reasonable not to take action, because they didn't care, but Blackgate City was different.
This only shows that she is really careful......
…… Scared of being pitted?
"If one thing happens, then it is reasonable."
Xiao Huan's mind was spinning, thinking about how to coax ...... No, thinking about how to explain, a smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Besides, I'm actually seriously thinking about you." ”
"When you told me about the wishing mechanism, I had this idea, and then my heart resonated with the city, and I understood more knowledge that belongs to your mind, so I can do these things with confidence."
"Now that you are so careful, hiding in this small Black Gate City, can you really affect the overall situation?"
"You've only awakened a little bit of will, but this world, too many places, mysterious sources, is still frantically devouring your origin power."
"So, wait, wait, wait, what are we waiting for?"
"The more you wait, the weaker you will only become, and the stronger the source of mystery will be."
"In that case, why not go out?"
“……”
"Going out ......"
The shadow behind the curtain was obviously entangled, worried: "Is it really not going to attract greater danger?" ”
"Since I woke up in Blackgate, has there been less danger?"
Xiao Huan said with a smile, his ability to explode his mind always made him seem to be telling well-thought-out things in an extremely relaxed tone: "By the time you wake up, your strength is no longer comparable to them, right?" ”
"There is only one choice to be small and big."
"Bet on it!"
“……”
The young lady behind the curtain seemed to be taken aback by his remarks, and said after a long time: "But I don't have much strength left now......"
"Then there's only one last option."
Xiao Huan looked at the shadow behind the curtain seriously, and said, "Take a big gamble!" ”
“……”
The shadow behind the curtain was a little stunned, and his voice even seemed a little stammering: "I also watch movies, gamblers can't believe ......"
"They're just gambling!"
Xiao Huan smiled and said: "All we can bet on is fate, we have no chance of turning the tables with a roll or two of our eyes." ”
“……”
The shadow behind the curtain was really startled by this remark, and did not speak for a long time.
"Of course, that's just a description."
Sensing her entanglement, Xiao Huan's voice slowed down a little, and said softly: "You have your perspective, I have my considerations, I have just realized the first step of Noah's plan, and I have been warned." ”
"They clearly told me that all the cities will be my hostile side, and the Black Gate City will be surrounded to death, and all the strangers, who should be the same people as me, will not help me because of various considerations, so what will happen next?"
"When we have nothing, the things we can choose are, of course, very simple."
"Take the initiative to invade His land......"
“……”
"You ......"
Miss Jukebox suddenly became a little worried, and said, "You don't know anything about those things......"
"Yes."
Xiao Huan smiled, his smile looked strangely gloomy in this narrow and cramped alley: "But I know people......"
"No one knows better than me, who has been hiding in my bedroom for four whole years, how strong the desire to get rid of all this repression is......"
“……”
The shadow behind the curtain fell silent.
She, it seems, was convinced once again......
Haha, get it before 12 o'clock
