Chapter 115 Snow Spirit
Chapter 115 Snow Spirit
Shen Ti froze in place.
He had imagined many possibilities, about his origins and what he was, thinking that he didn't want to think about it, and was too lazy to think about it.
But he never thought that the reason he appeared in this world was An Wujiu himself, and even the name was given by An Wujiu.
His hands suddenly became hot, and the skin of his hands moved again.
At first, Shen Ti couldn't control his hand, the raised lines on it would wriggle like bugs from time to time, spew out like blue veins, and even drill out of the skin, but after a while, everything returned to its original state, and there was no reason for it. his consciousness. At that time, when he first came into the world, he didn't understand anything, and even his speech was extremely difficult. These hands scared many people away, and no one wanted to be with him.
Deformed freak.
That's how they describe him.
Even in his dreams, Shen Ti would dream of a mirror with a distorted shape. In the mirror, he was still familiar with himself at first, with black hair, blue-green eyes, and a touch of red between his brows. But suddenly, an aurora-like gorgeous and eerie mist appeared, covering the black room and the silver mirror. After a while, the reflection in the mirror changed, turning into an indescribable monster.
The lines on his hands that made him nauseous turned into smooth and flexible tentacles, as if they were about to emerge from a mirror and clamp on his throat.
These dreams often appeared, and Shen Ti didn't know the reason. He thought that he hated these hands too much, so he simply sealed them with a pair of gloves so that they could not be seen.
Gradually, over time, Shen Ti began to be able to control that kind of distortion, and that strange force gradually dormant in this body, no longer making waves.
He thought he was just a little weirder, a little bit more special than most people.
It wasn't like that, he wasn't human at all.
Mingming had already had such an idea in his heart, but Shen Ti always avoided it, especially after encountering An Wujiu. How he wished that he and An Wu Jiao were of the same kind, just as he wished to have this person.
His memory was always like an endless white fog, as if there was, but couldn't see anything clearly.
But just when Yang Ce said An Wu Jiu's real name, Shen Ti suddenly remembered a lot.
He finally understood why when he saw An Wujiu, he seemed to be able to see him as a child at a glance.
Because he had seen it before.
From the day when An Wujiu's father passed away, An Wujiu's mental value fell into a huge fluctuation, and in that situation, he awakened himself.
The extreme anger, pain, fear, and depression of human beings are their best nourishment. These emotions come from the purer and nobler people, and the stronger the effect of the curse. Only at this time can humans have the opportunity to approach their realm and summon the reflection of the evil god through spells.
A little boy swallowed by great pain, a distant god sealed away, met on a cold night many years ago.
The seemingly indifferent god silently accompanied him to grow up in pain, and was gradually cultivated into a sample of "success" in the pain.
Even Shen Ti himself didn't know that his human form was transformed from obsession. It was from the indifferent godhead that there was a human desire that almost destroyed him.
I want to be like this little boy, want to save him, want to possess him, want to really embrace his scarred body instead of looking down from above.
This is how Shen Ti was born.
Yang Ce didn't understand why he showed such an expression after he said An Wu Jiu's real name.
But An Wu Jiu quickly recovered and thanked him again, he took Shen Ti's hand and planned to leave, "Do you want to go out with us?"
"I'll be quiet here." Yang Ce's mind was a little confused, and many memories from ten years ago flooded into his mind, causing endless entanglements. He took a puff of cigarette and glanced at the hands of the two of them, "Shen Ti is yours..."
"Boyfriend." An Wu Jiu put his fingers on the back of Shen Ti's hand, showed a very light smile to Yang Ce, nodded slightly, turned and left.
Down the spiral staircase, many things from the past circled in my mind. An Wu Jiu thought about how to tell Shen Ti these things, and also wanted to know if Shen Ti could also remember something, such as whether he was also related to the book that appeared in his home before, and how did he come here? of the altar.
He... can't remember himself.
These questions were stacked on top of each other, and for a while, An Wugui didn't know where to start.
Pushing open the door of the tower, snowflakes splashed all over his face, sticking to his eyelashes. An Wu Jiu closed his eyes and raised his hand to wipe the falling snow.
"You can ask me one by one, it doesn't matter."
Shen Ti's sudden words made An Wu Jiu turn his head abruptly, his slightly widened eyes full of surprise.
Shen Ti didn't look at him, still turned his face sideways. Amidst the snow, the corners of his mouth twitched, and the red earrings swayed slightly, like a god who was not so serious and reliable, but handsome enough.
"I can hear what you say."
An Wu Jiu grabbed his arm and dragged him to look directly at him, "Really?"
How could something so outrageous happen?
Shen Ti raised his eyebrows, "It's really outrageous."
Really hear it!
An Wu Jiu blinked twice, then licked his dry lips, "When did it start..."
Shouldn't Shen Ti be able to hear everything he was thinking about before?
"Don't worry, it's not so exaggerated." Shen Ti raised his eyes to the sky and thought for a while, "If you want to hear it very clearly and accurately, it should be in the game this time, and it's on the two of us..."
An Wu Jiu covered his mouth very timely.
"Are you kidding?" he asked Shen Ti again, "Can you hear everything?"
Shen Ti shook his head, raised his hand to hold An Wujiu's wrist, and took his hand off, "Occasionally, it's very random, like I'm not sure of your identity until now." After speaking, he raised three fingers, "I swear ."
An Wu Jiu doesn't care if he already knows his identity in the game, it doesn't matter at all, what matters is why Shen Ti can hear his heart, could it be that he is really some kind of immortal?
Does that mean that Shen Ti also knows what he was thinking about just now.
About his past, his childhood tragedy, including his bond with the "him" who is suspected of Shen Ti...
“What about others?” An Wujiu asked him, “Can you hear it too?”
Shen Ti shook his head.
"just me?"
Shen Ti nodded and added, "And I can empathize with you."
"Empathy?" An Wujiu frowned.
Empathy is not difficult, many people can do it, and do it well.
Shen Ti heard what he was thinking, and told him directly, "When I say empathy, I may be referring to the physical sense."
An Wu Jiu looked up at him, "What do you mean?"
Shen Ti raised his hand and covered his heart, "When you are in pain, I also feel heartache, a very real feeling."
An Wu Jiu didn't ask any more questions.
These signs all reveal the fact that there is a deeper connection between him and Shen Ti that is not yet clear.
"It's cold outside," he raised his head and said to Shen Ti, "Let's go back first."
The two walked silently in the snow, and suddenly, An Wu Jiu heard Shen Ti say "thank you" to him, he raised his head and asked him why.
"Thank you for giving me a name." Shen Ti's voice was gloomy, like a drop of warm water falling into An Wu Jiu's frozen heart.
The word vigilance was an exhortation left to him by his father, and finally turned into an obsession to accompany him.
Although the obsession itself may be the most imprudent guy in the world.
"You already know..."
Shen Ti hummed, "But I don't remember much now, I only know that I appeared because of you."
An Wu Jiu held his hand tightly, for no reason, when he clearly knew that Shen Ti was not a real human, a panic would arise spontaneously.
Shen Ti should not have appeared in this world, An Wujiu was afraid that one day, he would really disappear or return to his promised land.
Shen Ti thought of what Yang Ce had said before, and said to An Wujiu, "Yang Ce said that the human innovation plan is to fight against some kind of unnatural force, and all the researchers who participated in the human innovation plan have died. Is there any reason for me?"
He didn't speak directly, but An Wujiu could understand it.
“My dad’s death should have nothing to do with you.” An Wujiu said, “I remember very clearly that when he died, his entire eyes turned blue, like glass beads. My mother also warned me not to look at blue color stuff."
He looked at Shen Ti, "Have you noticed that every time you enter the altar, the surrounding environment is formed by blue light spots, but it was not very obvious at first, and the most obvious one was yesterday."
Shen Ti asked, "You're talking about the blue flame sacrificed at dusk."
An Wujiu nodded, "That blue flame reminded me of a person, to be precise, a voice."
"Looks like we thought of going together." Shen Ti's mouth twitched slightly, "That damn rabbit."
“That’s right.” They walked towards the temple step by step, An Wu Jiu felt chills in his heart, “What I am most afraid of right now is that the thing that completely broke my father’s spirit is hidden behind the altar, or …”
He raised his head and looked around, "He is everywhere, it may be a flower and a tree in the altar, it may be an NPC observing us, or even a certain player."
An Wujiu told Shen Ti what the rabbit had said at that level in the containment center, "He said that before us, only one player had cracked that game."
Shen Ti also heard this sentence, "You think that player may be Rabbit himself."
“It’s just my conjecture.” An Wujiu continued to move forward, his feet were stiff from the deep snow, “That rabbit always has a fully aware perspective, and he said, for a person like me, I The extreme emotions he saw the most. He tried to drive me crazy, but he didn't."
"I think... the rabbit and the player who cleared the level may be one of his clones."
This is the scariest. If their enemies were people, factions, or even data, they wouldn't be so uncontrollable and unknowable, but now An Wujiu can't even know who the person who killed his father was.
His existence, like Shen Ti's, was a terrifying unknown.
“You once said that you were punished by the same kind and kept repeating some kind of pain, but can you really feel the pain at that time?” An Wujiu thought it was incredible, or he was already stripped away at that time Come out and become a human body.
Could that god radiating blue light be Shen Ti's same kind? Under the strong interference of his spirit, An Wujiu survived and memorized a few words, but there was a deviation in the way or content of the summoning, so Shen Ti was dragged into this world by accident.
An Wu Jiu wanted to say something, but suddenly heard Wu You's voice.
"Brother Wugui!"
He looked flustered and ran towards them very anxiously, leaving Nan Shandu behind.
"What's wrong?" An Wujiu held his arm, "What happened."
"Noah is gone." Wu You gasped and told him, "We searched the whole city and didn't see her."
Nan Shan also came over and told An Wu Jiu the details, "Noah was with us half an hour ago, she asked to go out of the city to have a look, I thought about it and decided to ask the townspeople to ask for some food first. And water just in case, but after we got the food and left the townspeople's house and found Noah was gone, we've been looking for a long time, going from house to house, but there's no news."
"It shouldn't disappear out of thin air." An Wu Jiu thought for a while, "She said she was going out of the city, did you go to the city gate to see it?"
"I looked for her, but I didn't see her." Wu You said.
An Wujiu felt that something was not right, he thought that he was observing the structure of the Water City on the top of the mountain before, the city was built in a plain with the valley and the temple backing, and the city wall and the moat encircled a huge square land.
Shen Ti stretched his waist greatly, "Why don't you go back and look for it."
Wu You felt that he was unreliable, "Behind?"
"Behind the temple." An Wujiu said.
So the four of them bypassed the huge temple and steps and came to the back, only to find that there were no steps at the back of the temple, but a straight stone wall like a cliff. This kind of structure is very strange, making An Wujiu think of a possibility.
Generally speaking, to build such a pyramid-shaped structure, steps will be built on both sides, but this kind of structure is easy to be attacked by the enemy. Attack the temple.
He didn't know why he suddenly thought of the war scene, and not long after, he heard Nan Shan's voice.
"Is that Noah?"
Wu You looked over and found that there was another person standing beside Noah. After a closer look, it turned out to be Zhou Yijue. The two looked in one direction in a trance. He hurriedly ran over to hold Noah's hand and dragged him behind him, away from Zhou Yijue.
Zhou Yijue came back to her senses, turned her head to look at Wu You, and smiled, "Don't be so defensive about me, if it wasn't for me, your little sister would have been hooked by the monster."
monster?
"I heard that she was going out of the city, and that was exactly what I was going to do," Zhou Yijue said, "so I followed her, and I ran into a ghost too."
An Wujiu walked over and asked Noah what happened.
Noah frowned, "There was a white woman here just now."
Hair, eyelashes, skin, and pupils are all snow-white and transparent, like a snow elf.
"She has shackles on her ankles and wrists," Noah told them. "She wants us to untie her, and I agree."
Her eyes were full of sadness, and there seemed to be ice crystals with tears in her empty white pupils.
Shen Ti put his arms around his chest and listened to the story carefully, "And then what? Generally speaking, isn't this kind of fairy tale a plot of repayment?"
Noah glanced at him, "What I said is true, if you don't believe me, look at him." She pointed to Zhou Yijue, "That woman really wants to repay her kindness, she gave us a spark."
An Wu Jiu looked at Zhou Yijue and saw his clenched palm slowly spread out, inside was a weak, jumping blue fire.
It's blue again.
"What's the use of this?" Shen Ti walked over, stood in front of Zhou Yijue, bent down, and wanted to blow out the fire in his hand.
But Zhou Yijue guessed that he wouldn't do a good job, and put his hands away, making Shen Ti's plan futile.
Noah said: "She told us that when the three pillars were lit with this fire at the time of sacrifice, the miracle of rebirth could be obtained."
A miracle of rebirth?
An Wujiu looked at Zhou Yijue.
"I know what you're going to say."
Zhou Yijue took the lead and said, "Since you have given me a chance, I have to try it."
