The snake girl is not sensitive to human words, and her favorite word is probably "square".
In the last few seconds of her life, she didn't want to answer Yu Xing, but this sentence caused her too much confusion.
What does it mean? What is Fang Xing talking about?
A terrifying guess appeared in Snake Girl's mind, but she didn't want to believe it because it was a real horror story.
The snake girl blinked and asked with difficulty: "You... aren't Fang Xing?"
Has this monster reached this level? Could it be that from beginning to end, there is no weakness to save my brother, and even his identity is fake?
No, she could feel the blood of the Fang family in this person.
That is, the real Fang Xing was taken away by this monster, and the monster did all this wearing Fang Xing's skin?
This speculation is close to the truth.
The snake girl's brain was about to dissipate and could no longer support any more thinking.
At this moment, her cognition was distorted by Yu Xing's words, and her cognition was completely lost.
She always felt something was wrong.
But she couldn't wait for an answer. At the end, she had lost her instinct of longing for answers and dispersed with the wind.
No trace was left behind.
The place where Snake Girl was was became empty. Yu Xing took a breath and was about to show off to Yi Qing when his expression suddenly changed.
He remembered something.
The snake girl is gone, and all the power of his curse has been recovered. Under normal circumstances, Yiqing will not reach an unobservable height. At this time, there is no high-level presence here that can affect the live broadcast room.
The live broadcast room should be reopened from this moment on.
Ghost story!
This is a ghost story!
Yu Xing's pupils were constricted. His physical condition was so bad that it could be seen from the surface that his whole body would fall apart if he shook it.
He is not afraid of the sequelae of overusing his abilities being seen by the audience, but he is afraid that people who break the mirror will witness his embarrassment.
Almost as soon as I thought of this, the words I wanted to show off were swallowed back in my throat and turned into——
"kill me!"
Yiqing was very upright and a good ghost would go to the end and send the person to the west. Without saying anything, a ray of blue mist shattered Yu Xing's last hope of life.
He couldn't survive in this condition, and he would definitely be resurrected. As long as it didn't affect his brain, Yiqing had no psychological burden on sending Yu Xing to be resurrected.
Therefore, everyone who had just discovered that Yu Xing's live broadcast room had reopened did not see any pictures, only heard a faint sound, and the live broadcast room went dark again.
Barrage:???
Yi Qing also calmed down on the spot, then suddenly stepped forward, picked up the Sheqing Mengjing that was lost on the ground, and sensed the location of Yu Xing's resurrection through the privileges of the contracted ghost.
In the south of town.
Oh, it's a small slope now.
The green figure turned invisible, leaving only a wisp of green smoke, blowing towards the south of the town.
…
[Oh oh, reconnected again, where is this? 】
[I don’t know, Nanshui Town collapsed just now, and I can no longer match the current scene and the previous scene location.]
[Is this because he was lucky enough to defeat the boss? He seems to be in good condition, although his clothes are all torn... By the way... why is he sitting there in a daze? 】
[Maybe I’m thinking about how much I’ve lost. Hey, my chest muscles are sucking, my abdominal muscles are sucking, there’s a suck there.]
[lsp foundation, against the sky.]
[Which of the Foundation members who can survive to this day is not the best among the worst.]
When Yu Xing's body was reborn and his consciousness returned to its original position, the live broadcast room was naturally reopened again.
Like every resurrection, his emotions were closed for a while, which made him sit next to a tall mound with a cold face, like a killer with no emotion.
The audience who came after hearing the news could only see his coffin face and his depressing and silent temperament.
In fact, Yu Xing was bargaining with the system in his mind.
There is no emotion, but there must be interests.
"Xu Wan, as the creation of the Snake Girl, has disappeared. You have to count me as the completion of the task of destroying her appearance."
Yu Xing said coldly.
【Of course this is no problem.】
There was even a hint of softness in the female voice. It was obvious that the system that had achieved its goal showed unprecedented tolerance and patience to Yu Xing.
Yu Xing couldn't feel the joy and continued: "The festival is gone, and I have to complete the task of destroying the evening gown at the festival."
【Can.】
"I asked the doctor to kill Fang Deming for me, he is dead now——"
【This counts as your completion.】
The system didn't even have to wait for him to finish speaking, which was very generous.
There are four tasks in the second phase of Yu Xing's exclusive mission, three of which have been completed so far. The last one is to take Mingzhu to escape from Nanshui Town.
"..." Yu Xing was silent for two seconds, then realized later, "Where is the Pearl?"
【you ask me?】
"At this time, you just tell me that it's okay, and you won't lose any meat." Yu Xing said coldly, and stood up by the way.
Even without emotion, he could imagine that Mingzhu must be going crazy with joy right now.
The moment the surrounding scene changed, that smart girl would definitely understand that the cage that bound her no longer existed, and the freedom she longed for had quietly arrived.
Don't know where she will run to.
Maybe he couldn't wait to run out of town.
Yu Xingda could have used branches to search like a carpet, but he was very tired now and didn't want to use any more force. He just wanted to be a well-behaved salted fish.
The system thought about it and found that providing a direction would not violate the rules.
[Mingzhu didn’t leave, she went to Fang Mansion.]
"She still dares to go back?" Yu Xing's mood was slowly recovering, and the first thing he felt at this time was surprise.
The Fang Mansion is the deepest prison. For a woman who has been trapped in the Mansion for so many years, her first reaction when she is free is to go back?
This girl's brain circuit is indeed different from ordinary people, otherwise she would not have been able to stay awake for so long under the nose of the snake girl.
【She wants to go back to find you.】
The system is now the controller of this land, and naturally knows every living creature well.
[She thinks that if you are still here, you should go home and have a look. After all, you are "Fang Xing". By the way, she is still holding your painting tube. She used your knife to kill several townspeople during the altar riot before.
, the strap of the painting tube is broken. Now she is holding the painting tube tightly.】
[I have teleported all the other deducers. You can do whatever you want to do now. The live broadcast room will be closed in two minutes. 】
Yu Xing was a little silent when he heard this, and then thought that although Fang Xiao was shoved into the ancestral hall by the doctor, there was still a chance that Mingzhu would meet Fang Xiao when she went to Fang's mansion.
He sighed. He originally didn't plan to use his ability, but now he decided to use it to rush forward.
Without the influence of other powers, Yu Xing was very fast and appeared in front of Fang Mansion in just a few breaths. He just happened to see Mingzhu step into the gate of Fang Mansion with some hesitation.
Just as the system said, she held the blood-stained painting tube in her arms as if holding a source of peace of mind, but ignored the blood stains on her body.
Fang Mansion is still the same, it has never changed from beginning to end.
Yu Xing blinked and stepped in.
An expected scene also appeared.
All the things that affected his cognition disappeared, and the doctor no longer restrained Fang Xiao. He just ran out of the ancestral hall and saw the embarrassed but energetic Mingzhu at a glance, and his "younger brother" who walked in shortly after.
Fang Xiao was stunned for a moment, her footsteps seemed to take root, and she was instantly nailed to the spot.
The two people he most wanted to see and the people he least dared to see appeared in front of him without any preparation.
He even remembered the time he "gave" the pearl to his younger brother when he was in confusion. His face turned pale for a moment and his whole body was trembling.
He is afraid.
Mingzhu saw him at the same time, and the blood on her face instantly faded, and she was probably even paler than him.
But she was only stunned for a second before she pulled out the Tang Dao from the painting tube and pointed it at Fang Xiao fiercely: "Don't come over here!"
Fang Xiao had no intention of going there.
He wants to escape even more now.
He felt more sorry for Mingzhu than his younger brother. Now that he recalled the bastard things he had done, he just felt dizzy.
Tears overflowed from Mingzhu's clear eyes, and physiological fear made her tremble, but she straightened her back and said hoarsely: "Where is Fang Xing."
Fang Xiao didn't know what Mingzhu meant. Did she hate Fang Xing for violating her, or did she have other ideas?
"I'm here, Mingzhu." Yu Xing looked behind for a while and said calmly.
Mingzhu turned around blankly, and the moment she saw Yu Xing's face, her fear miraculously disappeared.
The knife in her hand clattered to the ground, and she ran forward with joy and sadness, hugged Yu Xing, and said in a trembling voice: "You are still alive! Thank you... you really saved me, you really -
—”
Mingzhu was incoherent, but now she just wanted to hug the person who saved her and didn't care about anything else.
Yu Xing let her hug her for two seconds, then gently blocked her with his fingers. Recalling their previous conversation, he controlled himself to smile and said in a gentle tone: "If you hug me again now, you will be charged."
Mingzhu let go of him.
The shackles in her heart were no longer, and she was able to focus on other things at this moment. Seeing Yu Xing's attitude, she suddenly said: "Do you really have someone you like? You have to pay for a hug."
Yu Xing wanted to deny it smoothly, but he paused when the words came to his mouth. Some strange but honest thoughts flashed through him, causing him to say instead: "Maybe?"
Mingzhu understood and immediately moved away, keeping a safe distance, not wanting to cause any trouble to Yu Xing.
Fang Xiao looked at this scene, and there was nothing he didn't understand.
He was originally smart, but now he has figured everything out.
"It was you who broke the curse here." He stared at Yu Xing blankly.
Without the Snake Girl's cognitive distortion of her persistence in blood relations, when he looked back now, he suddenly felt that his brother was a little strange, and his figure when he was a child didn't seem to overlap.
Although they look the same, he just feels that the soul under the skin lacks that resonance and looks more like a stranger.
Although... she is a stranger whom he is very friendly to.
Yu Xing turned to him.
The tacit understanding of smart people allowed him to understand Fang Xiao's eyes. Without hesitation, he stepped forward and stretched out his right hand: "Hello, let's get to know each other again. My name is Yu Xing."
Mingzhu clenched her fists, and then felt a little relieved.
She turned her head silently, leaving space for these two similar-looking men.
She also understood to some extent that Yu Xing was not Fang Xing. There were twists and turns in between, so there was no need to understand it now.
But Yu was lucky to be very friendly to Fang Xiao.
never mind.
That's it, she doesn't love Fang Xiao anymore, and she doesn't hate Fang Xiao anymore. Just breaking it off completely like this is the only way to say goodbye to the past.
Fang Xiao's sight was now occupied by the approaching young man.
Yu Xing.
As he chewed the name, he felt suddenly enlightened.
"You are not him."
He murmured, but still stretched out his hand to shake it politely, and then asked without any hope: "Where is he? Is he still alive?"
Yu Xing curled his lips: "In a sense, I am him, but I have never existed."
The character Fang Xing exists because of him. Fang Xing’s past is to flesh out Yu Xing’s character as an investigator. In other words...
There has never been an independent, so-called true happiness.
Yu Xing also doesn't know who Fang Xing is in Fang Xiao's memory. This may involve mysterious time and cause and effect, but what is certain now is that Fang Xiao will never be able to wait for the younger brother in his memory.
Fang Xiao was silent.
He is smart enough, but being in this world limits his understanding.
He just vaguely felt that his "brother" seemed to be gone, neither in the future nor in the past.
My mind is filled with new chaos.
Does the person he risked his life to send away when he was a child really exist?
Are his memories real?
Could it be that, separated from that book and Fang Deming, he was still trapped in another layer of illusion?
Incomprehensible concepts can destroy a person. Fang Xiao blinked bitterly, feeling that she would still go crazy.
He seems to be not far away from becoming a madman, unless he can know the whole truth.
Yu Xing suddenly said: "You said you can absorb him?"
Fang Xiao was startled: "What?"
Later, he discovered that Yu Xing was not talking to him, but to some kind of existence that he could not see.
[He meets my selection criteria. If he becomes a deducer, I can transmit the truth of this deduction to him.]
The system paused for a moment and added——
【Same as Lan Wu.】
A complicated look appeared in Yu Xing's eyes.
His mood recovered quickly after this resurrection, and I don't know why.
In short, he almost adjusted and regained his empathy.
The system's proposal is undoubtedly the best way to deal with Fang Xiao. Otherwise, Fang Xiao will be troubled in the trajectory of the world line for a lifetime, and may go crazy and commit suicide within a few months.
However, it always feels weird that the person I have called brother for several days is about to become a deducer of the same latitude.
[But due to Fang Xiao’s special status, I think it is necessary to seek your opinion. 】
[And, in the same way as Mingzhu, she can also be absorbed as a deducer. She has the power of the evil god in her body, and her starting point will be very high. 】
Yu Xing sighed.
Well, he had actually thought about this result. After all, even he had sighed in his heart that Fang Xiao or Mingzhu were both suitable to be deducers.
"My opinion is that you have to ask for their consent and stop forcing people."
When the system pulls people in the real world, it usually pulls whoever it catches. The unlucky ones didn't know the existence of the deduction before entering it, and they had no choice after being tested by novices.
But now this situation...
Yu Xing privately thought that Fang Xiao and Mingzhu had suffered enough. Since he could decide, he should give these two people a choice.
The system defaults.
Fang Xiao and Mingzhu were visibly stunned at the same time, their eyes losing focus, as if they were communicating with something in their brains.
It also seems that some concepts have been transmitted and it takes a certain amount of time to understand.
Yu Xing stopped disturbing them. There was still one last breath in the Fang Mansion, so he should go and say hello.
That breath belongs to the doctor.
When Yu Xing entered the ancestral hall, the doctor was sitting on the futon, as if staring at the tombs of the ancestors of the Fang family in a daze.
But as soon as he got closer, the doctor turned his head.
"Is it over? Are you leaving?"
The doctor was laughing. Just from hearing these words, I couldn't tell that he had any special emotions. It was like a windless and waveless river chatting calmly to the falling flowers.
"Come on, I'll be leaving soon." Yu Xing came and sat down next to him.
Everyone knows what walking means.
Because after further investigation, it turns out that neither he nor the doctor are natives of this world.
The doctor's eyes followed Yu Xing, and finally fell on his tattered Yueyu suit, and said with a smile: "You have changed from young master Fang to a beggar."
"I don't have any clothes to change." Yu Xing didn't care.
"It's great to be young." The doctor sighed, and the smile on his plain face gradually grew, "Don't forget what you promised me. When you come to Yin Yang City, if you don't take my child with you, I will
angry."
"Of course, since we made an appointment, I won't break my promise." Yu Xing replied matter-of-factly.
The next second he suddenly felt something was wrong and looked sharply at the doctor.
The face that catches my eye is still that ordinary.
But……
He didn't react just now. He saw this face clearly from the moment he stepped into the ancestral hall.
The doctor's face was clearer than ever.
Moreover, the doctor said "come to Yin Yang City".
Yu Xing's breathing was stagnant, and his pupils dilated unconsciously.
"Then I'll wait for you in Yin Yang City." The doctor's attitude was still the same, just like the greetings between friends.
But assuming His true identity makes these conversations ridiculous.
This is [Him].
It’s not a clone, it’s [him].
Only when [He] comes, Yu Xing can see this face clearly. The person here is not a "doctor", but a real evil god.
"Are you wondering why your body didn't collapse this time?" [He], who had suffered a loss from Yu Xing, put his elbows on his knees and supported his chin with his hands.
"I said, it's great to be young. Your potential is so huge." It's hard to say how much the doctor's influence has influenced [His] current character. In short, it's inexplicably peaceful. "Although it's not all a good thing, you are indeed adapting quickly.
Higher dimensional existence.”
The body that would have broken apart when faced with the arrival of the evil god actually had no reaction this time.
Just being on the verge of losing control once brought about such a change.
Of course, this may also be because [He] has no murderous intentions this time and is as calm and gentle as water.
Yu Xing was slightly shocked.
He began to feel uneasy, and finally felt that he was overplaying his game.
The greater the improvement, the greater the hidden danger.
Does he really understand his current situation? How many sequelae are buried under the surface of his body, waiting to explode?
[He] didn't say any more, but just looked at Yu Xing with his chin propped up: "I have to take a step ahead of you. Before I leave, I want to give you a friendly reminder."
Yu Xing managed to calm down: "You say."
[He] raised his eyebrows and said warmly: "Next time we meet, before I introduce myself, I hope you can recognize me, otherwise you may suffer a big loss."
"Finally, for your convenience, this thing... needs you to hand it over."
[You have obtained tickets - ticket qualifications can be given away, and can be given away after leaving the performance.]
The system made the announcement in a formal manner and whispered a prompt.
【This is what He gave to the "child".】
After the system finished speaking, Yu Xing felt his eyes blurred.
The ancestral hall was empty, and he was the only one left.
Although [He] left less than a few seconds ago, Yu Xing had an illusion - as if a doctor had never appeared here, no, it was this deduction, this world, had never appeared before
A doctor.
Everything seemed to be his imagination, although he knew it was definitely not the case.
…
Yu Xing returned to the front hall of Fang Mansion, and both Fang Xiao and Mingzhu seemed to have made their choice.
There is a long distance between the two of them, for different reasons, but they are indeed escaping from each other.
Fang Xiao agreed to become a deducer. He had been trapped for long enough and was eager to understand the reality of this world.
Mingzhu did not agree.
Her shackles have been released, she has no worries, nothing can knock her down anymore, but she is a little tired, and for the rest of her life she just wants to travel around and make up for the lost time.
I also want to go home and have a look.
Fortunately, Yu respects their choice.
There is no longer any communication between the two people, and the love and fear they once had have become as if they were nothing with different choices.
Fang Xiao is no longer obsessed with "liking". He knows how much harm he has caused to Mingzhu, and he also knows that between his younger brother and Mingzhu, he chose his younger brother without hesitation, which shows his love for Mingzhu.
It's not enough.
He wanted to apologize to Mingzhu just now, but Mingzhu said coldly that it was not necessary before he opened his mouth.
So Fang Xiao shut up.
The most perfect state of an ex is to be as quiet as dead. He believes that as he becomes a "deducer" and goes to the so-called "real events", he can die completely in Mingzhu's life.
He knew very well that as long as he existed, he would be a harm to Mingzhu. The current situation was good for both of them.
The system did not urge Yu Xing to leave, but gave him a few more hours.
The Pearl is leaving.
She packed some real valuables, took a shower, put on clean clothes, and was ready to go.
The thawed Nanshui Town will soon be seen by people in this world. She must leave quickly, otherwise, she will get into a lot of trouble if she is seen by people from the outside world.
"There are also investigators in this world. If you feel bored later, you can look for those forces." Yu Xing sent her to the entrance of the town. There is a relatively flat mountain road here. After Mingzhu enters the mountain, he can hide himself well.
.
The system said that Mingzhu's body has been transformed by [His] power, and is trapped in a fashion that cannot be revealed. The benefits will be gradually discovered in the future.
For example, hiking across an entire mountain range without food would not be a difficult task for Mingzhu.
"I know, thank you." Mingzhu also took away the broken painting tube.
Tang Dao was also inside, and Yu Xing didn't say to take it back, so Mingzhu understood that he allowed her to take it away as a parting gift.
"Am I never going to see you again?"
She already knew the answer before she asked the question.
A little regretful, but mostly relieved.
She has a strong heart, and it is really difficult for anything in this world to defeat her, including saying goodbye to her spiritual pillar.
Yu Xing built a pillar in just a few days, but she was destined not to stop. In the future, she would be her own pillar.
Before Yu Xing could answer her question, Mingzhu smiled brightly, turned around and ran towards the mountains.
