"I've thought about the reason. Just say that you know a little bit of divination, and you can predict the results of the exam."
"okay, I get it."
Zhu Sunling knelt down and said, "Your dressing technique is wrong... I'm a medical student, so I'll do it."
Gao Ying was startled, then let Zhu Sunling come.
After the bandage was finished, Zhu Sunling said: "At best, the infection of the wound can be delayed a little bit. If this continues, the wound will soon kill him. I hope he can meet his companion before then."
Gao Ying nodded, looked at the examinee, and said, "Finally, tell me your name, date of birth, and blood type. Also, after the soul link is established, no matter whether I or she gives you any orders, you must strictly follow them."
After bandaging, Gao Ying let the candidate go. He is already doomed. Gao Ying only hoped that he could develop his remaining value.
"If you have time, you can kill him with a scarecrow. Then his reward will be yours." Gao Ying looked at the blood on his hand, and then stopped thinking about it.
"I remembered an allusion." Gao Ying said with some self-deprecation at this time: "Live is reversed, it is evil."
"Interesting coincidence." Zhu Sunling had successfully established a spiritual link with the candidate who entered the fog at this time, "Now, he is our puppet. But...you could have directly ordered him to kill him when he saw him." Kill them, this is equivalent to giving me all the rewards."
"We are companions." When Gao Ying said this, he suddenly felt a bit bitter.
Zhu Sunling nodded.
"Thank you, Gao Ying. You are also a companion to me."
Only now.
The future... no one knows what will happen.
She doesn't trust anyone. Back then, when her uncle was Gao Ying's age, in order to marry his aunt, he would rather apply for a medical school that he didn't like. It took a lot of effort to become a surgeon. She remembered that when she was very young, even her father and mother were envious of the love of her uncle and aunt.
Human emotions are too fragile. Especially in this life-and-death environment.
Therefore, what Zhu Sunling loves the most is always herself.
"If... we can all have eternal life in the future..."
Gao Ying and Zhu Sunling continued to walk towards the thick fog, but at this time, he said such a sentence.
"If we could all live forever, would something be different?"
After he finished speaking, he looked at Zhu Sunling.
After this exam, they will become Hell-level candidates. By then, the threat of devils to candidates will be greatly reduced, and eternal life will no longer be an illusory fantasy.
After Zhu Sunling heard this sentence, she shook her head without any hesitation.
"All social relationships established by human beings can only be maintained for a long time because of their limited lives. And the most fragile of them is love. The unchanging love belongs to Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai, Romeo and Juliet, because they Neither of us lived long, and in the future, we will either die or... will live forever. Love does not belong to those who get immortality, and even the stars in the universe cannot be eternal. I am pursuing immortality from the moment , is ready to accept loneliness.”
Gao Ying suddenly felt a little stuck in his heart.
"I suddenly felt... Immortality is not a good thing at all. Many things seem to be pursued only with a limited life."
"If you long for family and stability, then your biggest mistake is to write down on the college entrance examination paper that you long for eternal life. Eternal life is eternal loneliness. Maybe one day, I will get tired of eternal life . But at least for now, I'll do whatever it takes to pursue it."
"If..." Gao Ying murmured: "If this is the case, then what do you expect in pursuit of eternal life? Is it simply survival?"
"It is true that immortality does not bring happiness, but death does not. I just chose the relatively less bad one between eternal immortality and finite life. I just, simply don't want to die, that's all. That’s it. People often run from the worst rather than choose the best.”
Gao Ying was silent.
He is still too young. Gao Ying didn't know how to evaluate Zhu Sunling's complex and rather special outlook on life and death.
Since he was a child, he has hardly experienced great setbacks, and he lives in a very harmonious family with loving parents. The dark side of life was once so far away before entering this devil's examination room. So, occasionally he would think about a question while reading, when a person dies, wouldn't the current happiness disappear completely? If so, death is quite frightening indeed. As soon as people are born, they fall into the countdown to death, and what they have will eventually be lost. However, people still work hard to live and fight hard.
Only now did he understand the answer to this question. It turns out that what is limited is worth pursuing and possessing.
Immortality is actually another form of death.
He suddenly understood why the question of immortality appeared in the college entrance examination paper, because only those high school students with shallow experience and imperfect outlook on life and death would really think that eternal life is happiness.
Maybe they've fallen into the devil's trap all along.
It's a pity... there is no possibility of regret.
Gao Ying and Zhu Sunling continued to advance in the thick fog. At the same time, Gao Ying also sensed the movement of the examinee just now.
"Listen..." Gao Ying tried to talk to the examinee in his mind: "If you encounter a devil, pass on all the information about the devil to us. If it matches the exam topic, tell us the corresponding topic right away."
Now, the minds of the three people seem to have established a chat group, and any message sent by anyone's mind can be heard. However, only the person who transmits his consciousness to the mind link can be heard by everyone, so this ability cannot read minds.
Five minutes later, the examinee's response came in his mind.
This is the transmission of consciousness, just a thought, so no matter how fast the devil kills people, it is difficult to stop the transmission of information.
"Fill in the blank question 9! A woman who has no facial features and is two meters tall is a devil that can only be seen when she is close to one meter!"
After this awareness was transmitted, Gao Ying continued to contact the other party, but soon, the other party did not reply.
he died.
However, Gao Ying and Zhu Sunling also delivered the most important information. The two immediately wrote down the answers on the test paper at the same time. Every time a correct answer is written down, there will be a period of time in which the devil will not attack them again.
And Gao Ying couldn't help sighing that life is really fragile, and in the future, he himself may end up like this.
What Zhu Sunling was thinking about was that one more candidate in the examination room died, and the hope of survival was increased by one point.
Gao Ying looked at Zhu Sunling who had just finished writing the answer, and suddenly thought of something, just now there is another period of time where he can not worry about the devil's attack, so out of curiosity, he said: "I suddenly found...you don't seem to be special fear of death. I've never seen you express a particularly frightened emotion. But you said..."
"I said... I'm just ruling out the worst fate, not pursuing the best fate." Zhu Sunling was not surprised by Gao Ying's question, "This is not a story based on people's fears and hopes." The world, the fear that does not help to change the destiny, is a burden to me. As I said, being reasonable does not mean justice. Being reasonable also does not mean blindly following.”
Gao Ying really wanted to know what Zhu Sunling had experienced to have such a strange brain circuit.
"I... don't quite understand your words..."
"All in all, this is an extremely cruel and contradictory world. Therefore, we often don't have too many choices. When I wrote that paragraph on the college entrance examination paper, I knew very well the meaning of the word price .Better to have a better choice than to have no choice at all.”
At first, Gao Ying was completely confused, but after reading it carefully, she gradually understood what Zhu Sunling said.
In fact, Zhu Sunling herself is very clear that from a rational point of view, it is not a high probability event that they will obtain eternal life. However, the possibility of eternal life is far better for Zhu Sunling than the inevitable death of old age.
For human beings, sometimes it is just hope, which can also drive them to go all out.
Because this world is so cruel and full of contradictions.
