The crimson faded, and the light and shadow settled.

In my ears, there is the familiar roar of the whistle and the "clattering" of mechanical gears, which are like the big and small trumpets in an orchestra, following a specific score to play a highly rhythmic mechanical symphony.

Different from the last time he was at a loss, this time, Li Qing was extremely sober in the carriage of the Shangtieqing train.

He once again came to the strange trial realm brought by the crimson moon in his palm.

After waking up, it was the joy of the rest of his life, and he was now almost certain that the experience he had just experienced in the library must have been a "dream" deliberately created by the transcendent who followed him.

The reason why it is said to be a dream is only because Li Qing is poor in words, and he can't find a more suitable word to describe everything that happened just now, and the unknown transcendent person can't directly control himself in the dream, but does some kind of guidance like a hypnotist, guiding himself in the dream to say everything about the bronze book.

"The transcendent is nothing more than that......"

Li Qing used this sentence to cheer himself up, he clearly remembered that he was very rational in the dream, his words were appropriate, he knew what to say and what not to say, and he also knew how to say some words that could not be avoided, and the movements and expressions that matched it were also in place, and he couldn't think of any flaws for the time being.

After several years of informant career, unconsciously, he has become a good actor, with good acting ability and the "special gift" of the trial realm, which made him win in this seemingly impossible game.

And the transcendent one, he must have thought that what he said was the truth, and what he got was accurate information, after he showed that he knew nothing about everything related to the bronze book, he lost his value, so after the other party left, he "overturned" the gas lamp on the long table, intending to erase his consciousness and kill people.

Fortunately, at the same time, the black secret text around the crimson moon in the palm of his hand finally completed the mission of connecting end to end, and the crimson exploded, crushing the dream created by the transcendent and dragging himself into the trial realm.

Crimson...... Li Qing was startled, a chill hit his back, and he suddenly realized one thing: if Crimson brought him here, then in the same way, is it also possible that the extraordinary person who followed him and wanted to kill him could also be brought in?

Just as Li Qing couldn't be sure what the "special gift" of the previous trial realm was, Li Qing also knew very little about the crimson moon in his palm and the black secret text in his hand.

The short but bumpy life experience made Li Qing always maintain a trace of caution, which may also have a little inferiority, he never believed that he would be the only lucky one who was chosen.

Looking around, everything in the carriage was as usual: the rain curtain glass window outside the window, the blue curtains tied up by the glass window, the word "Shang" written in small seal on the wall between the two windows, and the sleepy passengers in the carriage and the dark green-haired melancholy young man opposite him who was holding his chin with one hand and looking at the scenery speeding by outside the window.

Beyond the curtain of rain, there is an undulating outline of the dragon mountain range, which is not visible in crimson.

In the carriage, there was no one more, and there was no one less.

Regardless of whether or not the unknown transcendent was brought in, at least the other person did not show up in this carriage.

Li Qing's mind calmed down for a while, and after scanning the newspaper on the table at a glance, and confirming that it was still the 16th issue of Shang Tieqing's special supply, like last time, Li Qing grabbed the leather bag on the side and put it on his lap.

The bag is still the same as the old three: envelopes, documents and banknotes.

The document was still the same file, with photographs pasted on the thick paper, recording Li Qing's basic information and his educational experience that he was ashamed of.

On the back of the resume form, there are still three lines of handwriting, one black and two red:

"Please get off at Nanyang Station"

"Please be a good person who is polite and moral"

"Please don't talk to anyone but the conductor"

Li Qing put the file aside, his psychological quality was undoubtedly much stronger than last time, because when he counted the missing five-pointed note in his leather bag compared to the previous time, his slightly haggard face was not moved in the slightest.

This time, Li Qing had time to check the rest of the envelope, and was immediately disappointed to find that the envelope was empty and there was no handwriting on the surface.

Even in such a noisy environment, the crisp ringing of the strings of bells is still clearly recognizable.

It seems that the appearance of the conductor is not without warning, last time it was just because I was too shocked to see the blood on the back of the resume form, and I lost my square inch for a while, so I ignored all kinds of precursors, and felt that the conductor appeared so abruptly.

Perhaps as Xiao Jin said, the awakening trial he experienced was not very difficult, or even the easiest one.

Li Qing put the envelope back with the file, and this time, he was undoubtedly much calmer.

"Sir?"

The gentle and pleasant voice sounded in Li Qing's ears again, and the conductor lady in the navy blue uniform pushed the dining car to stop beside Li Qing, with a professional smile on her beautiful face, she bowed slightly and said, "Hello, what do you want to drink?" ”

It seems a little different from last time...... Li Qing couldn't help but be amazed, the abdominal case that had been prepared for a long time was overturned by him, and the expression on his face became a little stiff.

The strangeness he had experienced before made Li Qing have to be cautious, and he had to wonder: What made the conductor's wording change? What does this change portend?

As if to see Li Qing's "embarrassment", the conductor introduced in standard lingua franca: "We offer a variety of juices, soft drinks, teas, and, of course, white water, you can choose at will." ”

I don't understand, Li Qing simply obeyed his heart, ordered a cup of tea, in his shallow understanding of history, tea, is the drink that can best represent the Shang Dynasty, from a book of "Tea Classic", the Shang Dynasty people drinking tea has become a trend, and through this has derived a very rich tea culture.

The melancholy young man, who had been immersed in his own world, as if he was indifferent to everything, suddenly turned his head and said, "Give me a drink too." ”

The conductor smiled and nodded, took out the teapot from the dining car, and poured most of the steaming tea for each of them.

Li Qing put his hand into his purse, ready to pay the bill.

The melancholy young man glanced into the cup and said, "I remember that the tea was provided for free, right?" ”

"Yes, but I have to trouble the two of you to show your boarding certificate," the conductor explained with a hint of apology in her smile: "There are unknown people on the train, we are investigating, please cooperate with my work." ”

Unknown person? Is it the transcendent who has been brought into the realm of trials with himself? If it was him, then it seems that the other party did not obtain the "legal status" of a researcher at such and such a research institute like himself, so he was classified as a "heretic".

The hand that reached into the purse was about to touch the money, but when the conductor said this, Li Qing took out the file that recorded his identity information from the bag.

This is a special train for the excavation of the ancient ruins of Fulong, and this file naturally has the function of proving the ride.

The conductor took a look at the file, and after comparing the photo with Li Qing himself, she handed the file back: "Thank you for your support, please ......"

"Bang!"

As soon as the word "please" fell, all of a sudden, a loud bang came, accompanied by violent vibrations, as if the train was about to derail, and the tea in Li Qing's cup splashed out, wetting the newspaper on the table.

Except for Li Qing and the melancholy youth, as far as the eye could see, everyone in the carriage froze in unison, like a group of puppets that had been stuck in clockwork, but this kind of jamming was only for a moment, and the next moment, everyone returned to normal.

There was no panic, no screaming, not even a sound of discussion, and the crowd showed extraordinary calmness in the face of a loud noise that could cause panic.

After apologizing to Li Qing and the melancholy young man, the conductor pushed the dining car full of glass bottles and left in a hurry.

It seems that he has to deal with the emergency situation that has just occurred.

Staying calm at such a time and not causing greater panic is also one of the public morals, and Li Qing did not follow the past to join in the fun, but chose to stay where he was and wait for the situation to develop.

Compared to the transcendent who "strayed into this place", the dark green haired melancholy youth in front of him may be more crucial.

But this time Li Qing learned his lesson and did not blindly try to talk to him directly.

Just as the last time he didn't pay, the depressed young man took the initiative to help him pay the money, this time, the other party also took the initiative to speak after he picked tea from various drinks, from this point of view, his first step should be regarded as stepping.

How do you proceed next?

The blood letters behind the archival documents forbid him to communicate with the people on the train, and he binds himself within a moral framework.

Xiao Jin also said that the easiest way to clear this trial realm is to do nothing, stay in your seat for three hours, do nothing, and never make a mistake.

Perhaps, the answer is in the same place, right around us.

Li Qing's eyes slowly swept around, and finally stopped at the stack of old newspapers that had been wetted, and next to the newspapers was the same hourly gas lamp as the Ningpu County Library.

Although it was dark outside the window, it was not dark in the carriage, all thanks to this small object.

Li Qing had a long neck, looked around, and saw a yellow and blue flame burning on everyone's table, and the guess in his heart became more and more determined.

He took out the ten-dollar bill from his purse, pushed it down the table to the melancholy young man, and said, "Hello, can you exchange some change, I want to use this lamp." ”

The melancholy young man who was drinking tea raised his eyelids, he glanced at Li Qing, slowly put down the teacup, and said, "Your memory doesn't seem to be very good, last time, you have already paid." ”

As he spoke, the melancholy young man stood up a five-dime coin on the table, flicked his fingers, and the coin rolled out an almost incredible arc on the table, and with a crisp "clang" sound, it fell into the coin groove of the gas lamp.
