I Was Once a Legend

Leaving the secret place and seeing the high walls of the maze covered with vines again, Allen subconsciously felt hairy all over his body. It seemed that these plants would be like the ones in the hospital, ready to attack ferociously at any time.

"The secret realm just now is very strange. The reminder of the fragments is actually called the aftermath. It always makes me have some bad associations."

While looking for the door, Dong Zheng said: "It should not be just Lenovo. According to the clues and hints found inside, what we see is only the most superficial."

Allen came to his spirits: "Tell me about it?"

"The name of the fragment is what happened afterward, and it is already the biggest hint. Wen Baoshan said that he could understand Jasmine's words from the eighth day onwards, gradually showing signs of transforming into a plant, and began to yearn for sunlight. Do you still remember the clue of the fragment?"

"Be our friend and never be alone again, like the seventh day melting into a dream of sunshine—"

Allen recalled it again, then suddenly closed his mouth and hissed, a little frightened by the speculation, "You mean...Wen Baoshan died on the seventh day, and everything after that is just a fantasy after his death ?”

Dong Zheng hummed, "I wasn't too sure at first, but just now I suddenly thought that when I first appeared in the hospital, there was a label on the mortuary cabinet containing me, and the name on it was partly contaminated by blood. I can see that the first character has three dots of water for a day, and the third character has a vertical line in the middle, and the font is simple. I didn’t pay attention to it at the time. Looking back now, it should be Wen Baoshan’s name.

"Also Wen Baoshan said that since he was hospitalized, his child has never been here. It stands to reason that no matter how busy he is at work, his father must find time to come back when he is seriously ill. So it is very likely that before his child arrives, Wen Baoshan was already dead, and he didn't get to see him for the last time, so he felt that the child never came back.

"On the mortuary locker belonging to Wen Baoshan, it should be marked as 'August date, cremated', and the date behind it is written at the end of September no matter from the doctor's ward round record or the safe password record."

"So everything is an illusion created by the girl who gave him the flower?" Allen touched his chin and thought, "No, what happened to the plant that gave us the treasure box just now? Isn't it Wen Baoshan that has been completely mutated? ? If Wen Baoshan is cremated, how can he greet us?"

Dong Zheng: "I don't know, but this guess is indeed the most likely."

Allen was silent for a moment, sighed and said: "Hey... I suddenly miss my parents a little bit, and I don't know how they are now. But this son is really bad enough, work, work, no matter how important work is, it is important to have a father ?"

Cui Zuojing, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "Don't put too much emotion into the plot in the box, or you will go crazy one day sooner or later."

Allen looked down at him: "What do you mean?"

Cui Zuojing: "You have also experienced several boxes, how do you feel about the plot and the development of things inside?"

"At that time, I was only concerned about running for my life and being afraid, so I didn't care about feelings. It's just that after thinking about it after going out, I really felt embarrassed. You see, it's like in Hameln, where the Pied Piper sealed those harmful people. The mouse, because the people in the town did not keep their promises, they took away the children in a fit of rage as revenge, but in the end our customs clearance condition was to defeat the Pied Piper and let all the mice out. In a way, they are also considered good people End tragically, this is not a fairy tale at all."

Cui Zuojing didn't comment, but asked Allen: "What do you do for work?"

Allen cleared his throat, raised his head and straightened his chest and replied, "I am a glorious teacher of the people."

Now even Dong Zheng looked at him, Allen scratched his hair in embarrassment, and said with a smile: "Actually, I am a kindergarten teacher. I work in a kindergarten in Beijing."

Cui Zuojing nodded, and said mercilessly: "No wonder there is so much emotion."

Allen: "...what do you mean?"

"In the pure white world, the last thing you need is empathy. Never put yourself into an npc or other perspective to look at the plot. Any negative emotions you generate will be collected and provided as a kind of energy to someone This bit exists. It will make your life even tighter in her hands."

Dong Zheng grasped the point at once: "Someone exists?"

Cui Zuojing made a silent gesture to him: "That is to say, in the maze of time outside her jurisdiction, you can whisper, go out of here, and don't mention what I told you anywhere else, she eyes and ears are everywhere."

Both Dong Zheng and Allen nodded.

"Her name is hardly known by anyone. People in the Pure White Realm now call her Queen, the most supreme existence in the Pure White Realm."

Cui Zuojing touched Dong Zheng's chest, stared into his eyes, and said seriously, "The strength she relies on to survive is the despair that people feel when they are struggling in the box."

"So, no matter what, please control your emotions, otherwise, even if one day you are lucky enough to complete the pilgrimage, stand in front of her, and make your last wish, what you welcome will eventually be endless despair."

Allen: "Oh? No wonder you have been so calm, so it is!"

Dong Zheng frowned, obviously thinking about something, but he didn't say it, but asked: "At the end of the secret realm, what happened to the light that entered my body?"

Cui Zuojing answered honestly: "I don't know."

"You don't know?" Dong Zheng raised his eyebrows.

"Please, although I know this place very well, it doesn't mean that I should know everything, okay? The two of us are now grasshoppers on the same rope. If there is something terrible going on, how can I keep it from you?" Cui Zuojing Dissatisfied.

"But I know the person who set this trap, the girl Wen Baoshan mentioned. To put it simply, she is like a legendary demon who must rely on continuous transactions to continue her life. She is not too strong in terms of pure strength. .”

Cui Zuojing raised his hand and tapped on Dong Zheng's forehead, and checked it carefully again, but still didn't notice any abnormality: "Well...my current ability may not be enough, after we find Fu Zhe, we will show you together. "

Dong Zheng lowered his head slightly so that Cui Zuojing could touch him, and asked, "You asked Wen Baoshan what the girl took from him, could it be life?"

Cui Zuojing shook his head: "It doesn't look like that. As long as Wen Baoshan still exists in a certain form, he is not considered dead. It is meaningless to think about this question. Let's find the fragments. How long is it?"

Dong Zheng glanced at the upper right corner of his field of vision: "1 hour and 07 minutes."

"Okay, you two continue to look for pieces, I'm going back to have a rest." Cui Zuojing stretched, with unexpected fatigue showing in his brows and eyes.

He lightly touched the back of Dong Zheng's left hand, and with the shining grass coat of arms, his figure gradually became transparent: "If it's not so dangerous that you're about to die, don't bother me."

Cui Zuojing's figure disappeared in front of his eyes, Allen came over and patted Dong Zheng's shoulder, sighing: "Wow brother, you prisoner has a very personality, has he always been like this?"

Although he doesn't have one, Allen has seen other masters and prisoners in other boxes. In the Pure White Realm, prisoners have no human rights and are just like props to the master. Many people will directly use the The prisoner was pushed out as a scapegoat.

"I haven't known him for a long time, but it's true that I have always had this attitude." Dong Zheng sighed calmly. Cui Zuojing's strength is vividly reflected in the two boxes, of course there is no need for him to doubt , but strong strength does not mean that the two are truly compatible.

But thanks to his good temper, he knows how to be patient and give in when things happen, so they can get along peacefully. Linhai and Cui Zuojing would have fallen out long ago.

"There is still an hour, hurry up and collect the fragments to earn some points."

Although Allen looked foolish, it turned out to be really reliable. With him in the company, the speed of collecting debris was even faster than when he was with Linhai.The two came out of the third fragment space with 19 minutes remaining.

[When the world moves against entropy. ——program error]

Dong Zheng checked the collected fragments: "I have nine, how about you?"

Two of these seven were collected by Cui Zuojing when he was chasing the executioner, and they were naturally counted on Dong Zheng's head, and the fragments of the hospital's secret realm also belonged to Dong Zheng in the end.

Allen counted his own: "I have seven."

"There should be quite a few on the Linhai side. If the final points are given according to the number of fragments, then don't worry about it for now."

When the same scene was repeated for the third time, Dong Zheng's voice gradually lowered, and finally stopped, frowning: "We walked here."

"I can see it." Allen pointed to the chocolate packaging bag next to the maze wall, "I still have what I ate, but this kind of space repetition is very common in the maze."

swish - swish -

"Something's wrong." Dong Zheng signaled him to keep quiet, listened carefully for a while, then took a step back, "Did you hear anything?"

"Voice? No—wait, I heard it!"

The rustling sound was like rough and large robes rubbing against each other. When Allen's voice just fell, the owner of the voice appeared in front of the two of them instantly as if he realized that he had been discovered.

It was covered in a black cloak, with the corners of the robe hanging down to its feet. The wide hood covered most of its face, only its pale chin was exposed, and a short wand was held in a hand made of white bones.

Without any greeting or hesitation, the moment the figure was reflected on the retinas of Dong Zheng and Allen, it waved its wand, and two dark purple lights shot out from the top of the wand, hitting them!

pain!It hurts to the extreme!

Dong Zheng couldn't even make any effective resistance, and fell to his knees directly under the severe pain, as if every bone and every nerve had been pulled out, and he heard the overwhelmed cracking and crackling sound of his own bones. Allen beside him screamed uncontrollably.

Pain makes thinking slow to the extreme, and also to the extreme.The overdraft brought to him by Cui Zuojing not long ago finally tempered Dong Zheng's endurance. Before the black-robed wizard raised his wand again, Dong Zheng shouted with all his strength, "Kars!"

boom--!

A tentacle broke through the void and appeared out of thin air from the blue sky of the Labyrinth of Time. The moment Dong Zheng called out that name, it hit the wizard's head!

The head flew out like a ball.

The light at the tip of the wand gradually dissipated, and the headless corpse stood stiffly on the spot. After a few seconds, it slowly fell backwards, and fell to the ground with a bang, broken bones scattered.

Dong Zheng struggled to get up. He covered his abdomen with one hand and supported the wall with the other. He looked up at the tentacle that was about to return to the library again. While panting in pain, he fell into deep doubt.

——Can people struggling to survive in the pure white world really have enough strength to fight against these monsters?

Just like Cui Zuojing.
