Chapter 222

A peaceful night, but that doesn't mean it's peaceful on the street outside. The screams from far and near came, and they sounded familiar, as if they were the voices of the two female cultivators.

It seems that because they did not find a place to rest in time, they were attacked by unknown objects while wandering on the street. Preliminary judgment is that a ghost has come out.

After all, it is a dungeon developed in cooperation with the escape game, and there must be some elements of ghost escape.

The screams were so disturbing that Ye Xu didn't sleep well at night. After waking up, he rubbed his temples with a headache. He didn't understand why the two girls didn't find a place to rest. Aren't they afraid of ghosts at night?

"Maybe I want to hurry up and explore more places..." He Fengshuang said helplessly.

Like their self-cultivation games, they generally don't have the consciousness of sleeping and resting, unless they consume too much mana and need to meditate to recover. Night was just a not-so-good scouting period for them, that's all. However, in the escape game, it is no different from courting death when it comes out at night.

However, it is said that the two escaped by near miss last night, and don't know how others concluded. Ye Xu didn't quite understand some of the little tricks they used to cultivate the game.

After dawn, the two sides separated. The three of Ye Xu continued to check the situation in the city to see if there was any reset.

But after taking to the streets, they were dumbfounded.

I randomly pulled a passerby to ask what day of the month it was today, but it happened to be one more day than yesterday. They immediately asked a few people, and they all gave the same answer, indicating that in the eyes of the people of this city, time moves forward, and there is no one day that cannot pass.

On the streets of today, preparations for tomorrow's festival are also starting, which is obviously different from yesterday.

"It seems that it is not time to reset yet?" The three of them looked at each other and came to this conclusion.

Maybe the city doesn't reset every day, but only resets every few days. If it really doesn't reset, then Ye Xu and the others' speculation may be wrong, and they need to rethink the direction.

"Look first."

They also don't know when it will reset, so what can be done? can only watch it all the time, in case the time resets.

It seems that this dungeon can't be solved by playing for a while, and the enthusiasm of the three of them subsided, and they began to slack off.

There are still a lot of interesting things in this city, such as listening to listening, listening to books, cross talk, and watching juggling and dancing. There are also many authentic folk-style delicacies in the city, which are good to pass the time.

On the pretext of "checking the suspicious situation in the streets and alleys carefully", the three of them just walked away while eating and playing. Probing is incidental, mainly for food, drink and fun.

Along the way, I heard the people discussing the celebrations of tomorrow, which is their local special festival "Pray for Immortals". The most lively time here every year is the two periods before and after the New Year and the Prayer for Immortals.

Just when Ye Xu and the others were inquiring about the Prayer for Immortals, a voiceover appeared again: "It is said that the people of the City of Eternal Life have been looking forward to immortality since 10,000 years ago. For this reason, they specially selected On one day, the worship of immortals is carried out, and this day is the Prayer for Immortals."

The three suddenly quieted down and listened quietly to the voiceover telling the story of the city. This Fairy Prayer Festival is obviously closely related to the main quest.

"The people in the city pray to the immortals on the day of the Prayer for Immortals, hoping to bless their children in the city to obtain immortal fate, and even to cultivate longevity smoothly and no longer suffer from the world. However, for many years, they have not received immortals. The response. The children in their city can't even give birth to spiritual roots, as if they were cursed."

"However, one day many years later, they received a response from the heaven at the ceremony of worshipping the gods. Some immortals came to the world and fulfilled their wish of immortality. Since then, the city of immortality has become a real In the city of 'eternal life', people no longer have to suffer from birth, old age, sickness and death."

The story ends here. Just as Ye Xu was about to say something to his teammates, the voice-over suddenly spoke again: "But there are still sufferings when love is separated, resentment meets, can't ask, and the five fetches accumulate."

Three people: "..." It's alright, it's alright, I know it, let's step back, you're the only one who talks a lot.

Ye Xu was choked for a while and forgot what he wanted to say. But the Eight Sufferings made him think of something else: "Birth, old age, sickness and death are gone. It's understandable that there is no old age, sickness, and death. After all, immortality, sickness and death are certain. But there is no life suffering?"

"Does it mean that there will be no more children?" He Fengshuang has never understood the Eight Sufferings of Buddhism, so he can only understand it literally, "Is it normal to have no newborns."

Du Zhanyue shook his head: "Bitterness of birth means that when the child is born, it comes out of the narrow birth canal and suffers the pain of being squeezed, the pain of being cold or hot when it suddenly comes into contact with the hot or cold air, and the pain of being roughed by the midwife. The tender skin that was grasped by the palm of the hand suffered the pain of squeezing and friction, not the pain of a woman giving birth."

"Life is over, how come there is no more suffering?" Ye Xu nodded in agreement with Du Zhanyue's words, and then criticized the voiceover.

The voice-over of the crowd watching the whole process: "...It's okay to suffer!"

Ye Xu was satisfied.

But He Fengshuang thought it was interesting for them to argue with each other, and then he started to pick on each other: "Why don't they die? Haven't they all become ghosts now? They're all dead."

The voice-over, who thought that Gao Leng was disdainful to answer his question, only lost two words: "Haha."

It says that there is no suffering of death, but it refuses to accept you to bite it.

"..." He Fengshuang felt that he had been treated differently, why did Ye Luo sting a little, but he would be scolded for stinging?

Du Zhanyue almost died of laughter.

Fortunately, Ye Xu remembered what he just wanted to say in time, and changed the topic: "In the story, they were on the Fairy Prayer Festival when the immortals came to the world and fulfilled their wishes, and tomorrow will be the Fairy Prayer Festival. If our guesses are If there is no mistake, then after the end of the Prayer for Immortals, it is estimated that the reincarnation will begin to reset."

In other words, yesterday was the two days before the immortals came into the world in history, today is the day before the immortals came into the world, and tomorrow is the day when the immortals came into the world. After the immortals came into the world, the city people gained immortality in this distorted way and turned into monsters that are neither human nor ghosts, and then time has been looping at this stage.

- Don't they want to be immortal? Then let them experience the last three days before meeting the immortal forever. As long as time does not move forward, isn't it immortal?

"What kind of ghost is this immortal, it's definitely not a serious immortal from the fairyland." Du Zhanyue frowned, "This method is more like an evil demon."

In the professional field, Ye Xu couldn't intervene, so he could only listen to them.

He Fengshuang also expressed his own opinion: "If the time loops all the time, then the people will remember the truth in the middle of the night, and there will be a lot of resentment and hatred. For evil cultivators, the power of these resentments is very useful. "

Regardless of whether the people doing these are evil cultivators who have not yet ascended, or evil immortals in the sky, the power of resentment generated by the people is a good thing for them. Either use it to practice, or use it to brew a bigger conspiracy.

However, the people in the layout are really powerful. They didn't feel the power of resentment at all during the day, and only noticed a trace of resentment leaked out at night. It is also because of this resentment that they firmly believe that this city of eternal life is just as they inferred, and it is constantly reincarnating.

"If that's the case, doesn't that mean that tomorrow's ritual of praying for the immortals is a breakthrough?" Ye Xu's eyes lit up, "If the ritual is destroyed and the immortals fail to come into the world, then this city's problems can be solved?"

He Fengshuang shook his head: "It won't be that simple, what you are destroying is just the repetition of history, not the change in history. I guess after the success of the ritual of sacrificing heaven, no immortal will come out again, but it will be reset directly to the one where the dungeon started. This is a situation. If the sacrificial ceremony is destroyed and the time is not reset, the player should be able to escape from the city, which is estimated to be a normal way of customs clearance, not a way to complete hidden tasks.”

"He Lunzi is right." Du Zhanyue also agreed with him, "But I already have a clue on how to complete the hidden mission."

"What?" He Fengshuang asked.

Ye Xu suddenly said: "I see, do you want to destroy the formation that collects resentment? That formation should be the main culprit that confines the people in the city and prevents them from dying and reincarnating. As long as it is destroyed, The people in the city will be able to die, and the city will naturally be solved.”

"Not bad." Du Zhanyue looked at him approvingly.

He Fengshuang took a while to figure it out, and he screamed, "You can all think of this, it's too unhuman!"

"...Thank you, but we think you're just too stupid to think about it."

He Fengshuang was immediately annoyed: "I'm not stupid!!!"

"But how can we destroy the formation?" Ye Xu asked the professionals.

Du Zhanyue said: "Find the array eye and destroy it."

He Fengshuang also calmed down: "There should be two or three formations, if the formation to confine the people and the formation to collect grievances are not the same. The remaining formation is the formation to hide the city, if there is no such thing. , this city cannot be safe until now, it has been discovered by the seniors in the cultivation world."

Even if this is just a regional dungeon with a narrow map, there will be no seniors in the cultivation world at all, and there will be no such obvious bugs in the dungeon. There should still be some hidden arrays, otherwise the logic will not come out.

"You finally said something useful." Du Zhanyue looked relieved that my dog ​​was just growing up, "Keep working hard, come on."

He Fengshuang snorted arrogantly, never admitting that he was quite happy after being praised. It was Du Zhanyue who looked at him a little strangely, always felt that there was some special meaning.

The author has something to say:

Du Zhanyue: Eyes?That's the look in the eyes of my 200-pound silly dog [Satisfied Smile.jpg]
