Ling Xiaolu woke up in a daze, but he still hadn't reached his destination, but he felt that he had slept for a long time.
Rubbing his eyes, he realized that he was resting on Ji Meng's shoulder, and Ji Meng was leaning halfway to accommodate him.
"woke up?"
Ling Xiaolu sat up a little embarrassedly: "Why hasn't it been here for so long?"
Ji Meng still had Ling Xiaolu's temperature on his shoulders, and he calmly glanced at the artificially adjusted driving panel.
"I don't know, maybe it's far away."
Just after finishing speaking, a voice prompt sounded in the cabin:
"Dear passenger, your destination is about to arrive, please check your belongings and prepare for departure."
The aircraft landed steadily at the traffic station on the top of Monluo Mountain. The two walked out of the cabin door one after the other. Ling Xiaolu took a deep breath of fresh air as soon as he landed.
"The air at the top of the mountain is so good!"
Ji Meng activated the translucent floating map: "Press the navigation and you will be there in about half an hour."
Ling Xiaolu, who has done math problems for three months, has not done such a large amount of exercise for a long time: "I miss your fat dragon."
"Who was afraid to die from sitting on it before?"
"That was a long time ago!" Ling Xiaolu said unconvinced.
During non-public holidays, there are not many tourists in the mountains. The two of them are like young couples who skip class to date. There is even a fully automatic roadside court that recognizes their faces and intelligently sells them a couple’s package. Ji Meng still thinks about it. purchase.
"It wasn't like this when I last came here."
Ji Meng has been separated for a longer time, and his memory is more blurred, but he really wants to know what kind of memory Ling Xiaolu has been implanted, why even such details are fully considered, is it possible that it is the transfer of real people's memories
Before they knew it, they had come to their destination.
At the end of the road, there is a stone tablet erected at the pass. It is engraved with seven calligraphy characters of "death and then life". The pen is sharp and majestic.
"What is that?" Ling Xiaolu pointed to the looming sign in the long grass.
Ji Meng brushed aside the blades of grass, revealing a road sign that had been corroded by wind and rain for a long time, pointing to the location on their left, with the words "Best Jumping Point" in small letters.
Two people: "… "
Is that okay? Too unreasonable, right? !
They came to the so-called "best cliff jumping point". There was a flat stone platform excavated by hand. Looking down from the edge, it was a mist-shrouded abyss. Ling Xiaolu only glanced at it and felt his legs and feet were weak.
"Do you really want to jump from here?"
If they guess wrong, it will end in smashed bones.
"If this is really the game world, I believe that I can go back no matter what, the difference is just whether it is cleared or not."
"And what if not?"
The two were speechless. If this was the real world, and if the previous world was their fantasy, then this leap would be the end of their lives.
Even if the probability of 99% is false, there is still a 1% probability of being true, do you dare to bet
They stood side by side on the edge of the cliff, the wind passed under their feet, Ling Xiaolu stood for a few seconds, as if his legs were going to freeze.
He took a difficult step back: "I think it's better to wait."
Ji Meng also took advantage of the situation: "Why don't we go back first and find out if there are any new clues. Maybe... Maybe this game is time-based, as long as it survives for a certain time, it will automatically clear the level."
"If that's the case, it's game over when I'm doing the math." Ling Xiaolu said, "We finally got here, in case, I mean in case, if this is the real world, what are we going to do? Wouldn't it be a pity if they didn't stay?"
"What do you want?"
Ling Xiaolu looked around in the surrounding area, and finally found a stone wall in a very remote place.
"Anything sharp?" he asked.
Ji Meng picked up a sharp-edged stone on the ground: "Is this okay?"
"It should work." Ling Xiaolu picked up the stone and carved his name on the stone wall one by one.
- Deer, than.
After carving, he handed over the stone: "You too."
Ji Meng imitated his appearance and engraved the words "Ji Meng" in parallel at a point on the left.
After the engraving was over, they discovered that the texture of the stone wall was a bit special, and there was a faint heart shape in the middle of their names.
"This is also considered to have left a name in this world." Ling Xiaolu was whimsical, "If we return to the real world, we will return to this place. Do you think there will be these four words?"
"If anything, it's a thriller, right?"
"Hey, I'm joking."
The two stood on the edge of the cliff again.
"Friend, if this is really the last day of your life, what would you like to say?"
Ji Meng's mind went blank: "I can't think of it. What about you?"
Ling Xiaolu turned to look at him next to him: "If it's with you on the last day, it doesn't seem like it's a pity... I mean, being with a good friend is always like being alone."
He deliberately emphasizes "good friends", and the emphasis is very blunt.
"..." Ji Meng hesitated and took his hand.
Both of their palms were sweaty.
"Are you nervous?"
"Um."
Ling Xiaolu's heart beat so fast that he almost jumped out of his chest.
He also heard Ji Meng's breathing gradually speeding up.
"Did you know that when people are particularly nervous, their heart beats faster, their palms sweat, and adrenaline rises, which can easily be confused with another physiological response."
Ji Meng met his gaze, with complex emotions flowing in his eyes.
"I know."
Ling Xiaolu was afraid that his true thoughts would be known to him, so he was embarrassed and said sternly:
"So don't misunderstand."
"… I know."
The setting sun slanted on them, and a goshawk spread its wings and slid across the sky, sending out a long eagle chirping.
"I count three, and then together?"
Ji Meng nodded.
"3—"
"2-"
"1."
The moment Ling Xiaolu counted to "one", Ji Meng suddenly turned half a circle, took the person into his arms, and with the other hand tightly protected his head on his chest, facing the bottomless cliff, straight up. Leaned straight back.
