Bai Wu actually knows very well that if a person has not become the ceiling, then the troubles encountered will become bigger and bigger in the process of approaching the ceiling.
I am indeed getting closer and closer to the truth about the world's changes, but this process will definitely become more and more difficult.
Although the past scenes will certainly seem simple when you go back now, this also means that the future puzzles will involve more and more causes and effects. The scenes are becoming more and more complicated.
"It seems that I underestimated this 'God's Descent' journey."
Six of Hearts.
Bai Wu instantly returned to his memory palace. Although historically speaking, the last time he was teleported to the farm by Jing Liu was just over half a year ago, in fact, Bai Wu had experienced more than ten years.
It is a bit troublesome to find the original memories.
So he fell into deep thought, and then his body movement was to hold Xu Ling's little hand and never let go.
Tang Jing felt a little embarrassed because his master seemed to be using his body to tease girls.
"Master, you don't have to go to this extent, right? What should I do after you leave?"
Xu Ling was also a little shy. Why did this person keep holding her hand
This time it wasn't that Bai Wu was doing anything, but that Bai Wu was absorbed in thinking.
About thirty seconds later, Bai Wu remembered what he had heard when he first entered the farm:
"Today is the graduation day of the Five of Hearts at Farm No. 7. Let us send him our best wishes. He will soon go to the world outside the wall and, like many of his older brothers and sisters, bring more supplies to the shelter."
Before, Bai Wu didn’t know what graduation was.
In Bai Wu's impression, graduation should be associated with death, or being swallowed by a monster.
Or other ways of dying. In this case, the King of Clubs and the King of Hearts will choose to escape.
Because of their incredibly high qualifications, they had long guessed that the so-called graduation actually meant a certain end.
But now, Bai Wu suddenly felt that... his guess was overturned.
How did the Six of Hearts end up here? Could it be a coincidence? Is this tattoo just a coincidence
wrong…
Bai Wu felt very strange at the beginning. If Hong Yin had not absorbed the resentment of so many people, he would not have defeated Elijah seven hundred years later, shortly after the doomsday.
And he had to admit that Xu Ling had great talent and luck.
The piano can be filled with spirits, and can use notes to create illusions, and even directly create monsters comparable to second-level mutants. This is simply a low-profile version of resentment incarnation.
According to Tang Jing, the world has only been changing for a few days. Just in these few days, a monster like her was born
What a coincidence.
Of course, there is a possibility that it is just a coincidence, but Bai Wu believes that it is a very stupid thing to simplify the problem if we subjectively attribute everything to coincidence.
Xu Ling fully possessed the potential to be a monster in the black area. In terms of the speed of being affected by the distortion, Xu Ling was already several steps faster than others.
"I'm sorry... You're very pretty, I'm being rude."
It would not work just to figure it out on his own, so "Tang Jing" quickly started the next step.
The real Tang Jing's consciousness is now speechless.
Is this something that the master likes
Xu Ling was a little shy and kept her head down without saying anything.
Bai Wu thought it was okay. This trick would only be effective on good-looking people. At least it showed that Tang Jing's facial features were qualified.
"The pattern on your hand looks very special. The Six of Hearts. What does it mean?"
There was no need to hide anything, "Tang Jing" asked very frankly and generously.
Xu Ling shook his head:
"I... I don't remember either. It's been on my hand since I can remember. I guess it might be a mark left by my parents."
The father and mother of the farm are just two joker cards. Bai Wu felt something was wrong.
First of all, Xu Ling doesn’t seem to be pretending.
Because he can sense the malicious fluctuations, lies mean little to him now.
The girl did not lie.
"From memory? In other words, you haven't seen your parents?"
After saying this, "Tang Jing" quickly added:
"I'm sorry, I don't mean to pry into your past, it's just... we have a lot in common, and I want to get to know you better."
Holding the girl's hand, he said softly, "I want to know you better." Even though Tang Jing was a straight man, even though he had never been in love for more than a decade and had always been troubled by the dark fog in his dreams, he could see that this was flirting, right? This was flirting, right
Master, I don’t need this business…
Bai Wu ignored Tang Jing. There were too few clues about the farm. Who knows how much Bai Yuan would reveal? It was possible that Bai Yuan would ask for tea first when the farm was mentioned.
Moreover, Bai Yuan had been away from the farm for a long time, and he didn't know many things.
Now that we have a clue, we naturally cannot let it go.
Xu Ling's face did turn red after hearing this, but fortunately it couldn't be seen in the dim classroom.
Tang Jing had mutated just like himself, and he seemed to be very familiar with all of this. He really needed someone to guide him because he didn't want to turn into a monster.
"I don't remember much, but I feel like my dad is a doctor and my mom is a nurse... I can't remember anything more."
Something is wrong.
Xu Ling did not lie, and the image of her parents completely matched the image of the parents on the farm.
But it is precisely because of this that Bai Wu feels strange.
If Xu Ling had malicious intent, or was even evil, and on the surface was a human being who had become evil due to excessive negative emotions, but in fact was a super evil person, then this would be in line with his own thoughts.
But... Xu Ling is very pure.
This huge sense of dissonance made Bai Wu vaguely feel that the puzzle might be more difficult than he had imagined, and the situation outside the black fog was also more complicated than expected.
"Did she escape from the farm? No... After two Ks and a Ten escaped, I don't believe the farmer would not strengthen the defense, especially since she is only six... If anyone can do it, the farmer is too weak."
"So there is only one truth. Xu Ling was released by the farmer. He arranged for Xu Ling to come to this world. What was his purpose? Xu Ling had not turned into an evil being before. It was only in these few days that he began to change."
"In other words, did the farmer already know that the black fog would spread and started planning ahead of time?"
"The so-called bringing back of supplies from outside the wall was all fake, a scam to deceive other farm children. This can be confirmed."
"Xu Ling's situation may mean that there are two ways to leave the farm. One is the way that Bai Yuan and Lin Rui are afraid of, a way close to death."
"Another way to leave the farm must be like Xu Ling, with his memory erased and placed somewhere. But why did he erase his memory?"
"Yes, I am afraid that a child like Xu Ling will know the true nature of the farm! The masked man once did not dare to reveal his name. He told Jiang Yimi that if I reveal my name, I will be marked by karma."
"So Xu Ling was also marked. Maybe there are many people like Xu Ling in this world who have been marked. They all came from the farm. When the distortion spread, compared to other people, their growth speed was like cheating. It is simply incomparable to ordinary people."
"So, what does the farmer want by doing this?"
Bai Wu thought step by step, and this time he was not distracted by his surprise at seeing the Six of Hearts.
So while he was thinking, he chatted with Xu Ling as Tang Jing.
"By the way, have you known your name since you can remember?"
Xu Ling nodded.
"It's like this. After all, we are quite special now. I am worried that in some cases, if we call each other by our names, it might cause some trouble. If we show our abilities and someone knows our names, it might cause an investigation by someone with ulterior motives."
"Then... what should we do?" Xu Ling felt that what Tang Jing said was right.
Tang Jing said:
"From now on, you can call me Xiao Tang, and I will call you A Ling."
Bai Wu was not flirting at all. Everything she did was just for safety, stability, and to obtain information.
But Bai Wu's two names are really tempting.
Xu Ling had never been addressed so affectionately before. Tang Jing was stunned.
He actually felt like he had gone back to the feudal era thousands of years ago and had a marriage arranged by his family.
"Okay. I see. I, I thought you were very introverted when I first saw you."
When Tang Jing is serious, he looks like a very closed person, and his personal temperament gives people a feeling that no strangers are allowed.
But after getting to know each other, Xu Ling felt that Tang Jing seemed to be cold on the outside but warm on the inside.
Tang Jing loudly proved himself in his heart: "I am the one! I am the one! The one who flirted with you is my master! Not me!"
It's meaningless. His inner narration is not like some naughty eyes that form a dialogue box.
"No, I'm not like this on weekdays. I'm really an introvert. It's just that I was a little abnormal when I saw you today. You may find that I have become a different person in a few days. But don't think that I am distancing myself from you. I am just like this..."
"Tang Jing" still has to lay some foreshadowing for his apprentice's clumsy performance later.
Xu Ling nodded, not quite understanding.
Tang Jing said:
"We should go back."
"good."
"Wait for me here. I'm going to contact a friend of mine and tell him something."
"good."
Tang Jing looked at Xu Ling's obedient appearance and found it hard to imagine that this girl wanted to kill him just ten minutes ago. He suddenly understood the meaning of his master's words -
Many evil people are poor people, poor people need love, this is the correct code to communicate with evil people
"Tang Jing" left the classroom and pretended to pick up his mobile phone, but he was actually talking to the real owner of this body.
"Listen, I have demonstrated and explained everything. You have to be nice to Xu Ling. I have said that most evil is caused by negative emotions, which make people feel sad, afraid, and angry. If you resolve these, you will gain their recognition."
"You and I have very different personalities, but you must pay close attention to Xu Ling and take care of her as much as possible. You must find a way to get to know her every move."
Tang Jing was puzzled:
"Every move... Master, aren't you too controlling?"
"??? What are you thinking about? There are some things I can't explain to you too much. I can only tell you that this girl has a complicated background. I'll give you 30 seconds to figure out why this happened. If you can't figure it out, our relationship as master and disciple will end here."
Tang Jing was stunned, and then he thought that when his master saw Xu Ling, he was not surprised at all, but what really made his master behave abnormally was when he saw the tattoo on Xu Ling's arm.
He suddenly realized... Could this be a tattoo from some organization
Xu Ling lost her memory. Perhaps the master knew something about the memories she had lost
Master came from the black fog. Does this mean that Xu Ling is actually connected to the black fog
Tang Jing suddenly realized that he had thought his master was an old pervert, but it turned out that his master was standing on the fifth floor!
Combining what his master said about staying calm and always considering the best solution, Tang Jing thought about it and decided that gaining Xu Ling's trust and finding out the truth was indeed the best solution. Even if there was misunderstanding, he could just explain it clearly after all the truth was revealed.
Because Tang Jing's brain reacts quickly, and because the God's Descent Sequence allows him to constantly imitate the summoned person, Tang Jing soon thought of the real reason why his master behaved abnormally just now.
He felt a little ashamed:
"I'm sorry, I thought too superficially. But Master, don't worry, I will make arrangements for Xu Ling."
Tang Jing nodded and said:
"I should go back now. I still have some things to do. You must remember everything I said to you today. Also, don't activate the sequence easily. But don't be afraid of disturbing me. If you really encounter trouble that you can't solve, summon me decisively."
How thoughtful! In Tang Jing's mind, Bai Wu's image was already brilliant, majestic and sacred.
Bai Wu thought about it and decided there was no need to remind him any further. This was the first time Tang Jing established contact with the people in the black fog, and it was also his first time to come to the world outside the black fog.
Originally, he wanted to eat some delicious food with Tang Jing's body, but after thinking about it, maybe it was just a dream for him. The good things were eaten by the apprentice, and the master became more greedy after waking up. It was not cost-effective.
As the sequence was used continuously, more and more memories about the use of the sequence flooded into Tang Jing's mind.
Tang Jing also knows how to undo the sequence.
He and Bai Wu soon reappeared in the space filled with white mist.
"Master, thank you for saving me today."
Tang Jing was going to pay his respects to his teacher, and Bai Wu did not stop him. Although the sequence itself did not have self-awareness, Bai Wu still regarded the pair of eyes that matched his other personality as a friend.
The Eye of Prell is probably the best in the world, even if a god descends, he has to become his disciple.
After the apprenticeship ceremony, Bai Wu said:
"A greater challenge has arrived. You and I are the same. The world inside the black fog is much more dangerous than outside the black fog. However, the world outside the black fog is extremely vast and has more possibilities. Moreover, more powerful enemies have already begun to deploy in this world."
"You have to try to find all the people with tattoos on their arms, spades, clubs, diamonds, hearts, and other symbols. Find one and report it to me."
Tang Jing nodded and took note. He also knew that the owners of these tattoos must be from an organization that could influence the world.
At this time, Bai Wu also thought of the purpose of the farmer's doing this.
Arrange various "seeds" in this world in advance, and when distortion comes, the seeds will take root and sprout, and grow into a towering tree called Evil.
They have better talents and are more adaptable to distortion than other humans, so they are destined to become the most powerful monsters in each area.
According to one of the few iron laws in the distortion, the most powerful monster will become the guardian of the area. The ultimate goal of the farmer is to make his own people the guardians, so as to obtain items that are more powerful than the rules.
Pieces of the Doomsday puzzle.
Bai Wu also realized one thing: the essence of this game is to collect the pieces of the doomsday puzzle and end the doomsday.
The creator of the tower and the monster trapped in the tower may be two beings, one good and one evil. One gives humans powerful privileges, while the other gives the evil ones a high starting point.
The evil ones took advantage of this and have been suppressing humans, making them believe for a time that they were indeed living in a doomsday world and were at the bottom of the food chain.
But once humans get up... maybe they can go further than the evil ones.
Bai Wu still always believes in his original point of view—the creator of the tower encourages people to leave the tower.
…
…
The Tower, the next morning.
After Bai Wu woke up, he simply washed up, changed into the Survey Corps uniform, and started heading to the fourth floor of the tower.
Last night's experience made Bai Wu realize that Jing Liu and the farmer might be the two parties in the game.
The masked man didn't dare to say his name, and the farmer told my little sister that karma didn't apply to him. Does this mean that -
Is the farmer actually someone who can restrain Jingliu
If I think about it carefully, relying on the Eye of Prell, I have mastered many truths of this world in less than a year. It can be said that I have promoted the exploration process of the people in the tower.
Why has Jing Liu, who is theoretically smarter than his eyes, achieved almost nothing in the past seven hundred years
It is true that Jing Liu gave Bai Wu a feeling of being unfathomable, but at the same time, Jing Liu did very little practical work.
Who was hindering Jing Liu? Or was Jing Liu's actions so slow because he was afraid of someone
Assuming that the spread of the black fog and the distortion of the world outside the fog were caused by Jing Liu, then could it be that... the farmer had already calculated that Jing Liu would do this and had already started planning ahead of time
Bai Wu didn't know the answer, but he was happy to see this situation.
Because human beings are declining, but what human beings are best at is to survive in the cracks, and then take advantage of opportunities, change course according to the situation, and finally complete a great reversal.
As we all know, the triangle is the most stable. If there are multiple forces fighting in this world, it will be more beneficial to humans than having only one pure enemy.
The chess game in the distorted world has just begun, and it remains to be seen who will have the last laugh.
Bai Wu gradually sorted out his thoughts in the elevator to the fourth floor of the tower.
But at the moment, he couldn't take care of such a grand battlefield for the time being, because he had to deal with something on the fourth floor of the tower.
Regarding the deputy head of the investigation corps, Gu Qingyu has not returned for ten days and has been absent from his post, so the Qin family decided to... arrange for Liu Hu to be the deputy head.
