The groom's cold and pale hand pinched his chin, as if the hand would move down and grab his neck in the next second, Cheng Zhichu's face suddenly turned pale, and he reached out to get the phone back, but the groom had already used it 's other hand lights up the phone screen.
"Who is the man next to you?"
"You want to go with him?"
"what about me?"
"Why don't you look at me?"
A large number of chaotic symbols and garbled characters poured into the screen frantically, mixed with sentences full of anger and questioning, which flickered quickly, but did not fall into place, all of which caught Cheng Zhichu's eyes.
In his panic, the groom could obviously see the information. His fingers suddenly tightened, the phone made a "click" sound, cracks spread across the fuselage, and the screen suddenly went black.
"Who is he, Zhichu?"
The groom was also gently asking the same question, his fingertips moving around Cheng Zhichu's eyebrows and stroking his face: "What's your relationship with him?"
Cheng Zhichu's head broke out with cold sweat instantly, and he once again felt the dangerous aura emanating from the groom, which made him shudder, and the blood in his whole body seemed to be frozen in an instant.
"Wow..."
At this moment, a icy and biting wind suddenly blew over, and the surrounding leaves were swept up by the wind, swaying endlessly, and the tree shadows on the ground also swayed slightly, suddenly squirming like insects, spreading out for no reason. More shadows.
The surrounding light suddenly dimmed, as if covered with a layer of dust, all the scenes became gloomy and gray, and the air was filled with the cold smell of blood.
There seemed to be a pair of eyes open all around, and all the gloomy eyes were focused on Cheng Zhichu. There were countless voices whispering, chaotic and noisy.
All the pedestrians passing by suddenly stopped, turned their heads, and stared at him blankly.
Cheng Zhichu's breath stagnated, and he couldn't help being horrified. He thought it was the reaction caused by the groom's anger, but those subtle and strange sounds, such as crawling insects, became clearer and clearer, and converged into the same words, which spread from the throats of pedestrians. came out—
"Zhichu, why did you want to go with him? Why didn't you wait for me?"
"It's clear that I'm already by your side, but you still don't have me in your eyes."
"Is it only because I and you are one, you won't run away from me?"
It is "cold branches falling into white".
"Shh-"
Cheng Zhichu's body swayed, and he sat on the ground at once, and the snow-white skirt spread out on the ground like a blooming flower.
But the next moment, Cheng Zhichu's hands tightly grasped the skirt, his face was sweaty, his face was bloodless, and he gasped with his mouth open.
It was as if something invisible had penetrated into his body, causing every cell in him to wriggle. His whole body was sore and itchy, especially his throat was cut like a knife. He was in constant pain, covering his chest and coughing violently. With a sound, a bloody smell filled his mouth instantly, and the dazzling blood splashed on the white wedding dress.
"Cough, cough, cough..."
He squeezed his throat hard, tears spilling out of his eyes because of the pain, his lips were stained with blood, and he kept spitting out blood.
"Knowing the beginning!"
Cheng Zhichu couldn't hold it any longer and fell to the ground. The groom's original anger dissipated in an instant, his tone was extremely flustered, he held him in his arms, stroked his cheek, and asked anxiously, "What's wrong with you?"
"Uh-ah!"
Cheng Zhichu was in severe pain all over his body, and he screamed out, unable to answer the groom's words.
"Something got into my mother's body, please, save him quickly!"
The little bear felt an extremely frightening aura in Cheng Zhichu's body. It was shaking all over, and its tender voice was stained with crying. It rubbed against Cheng Zhichu hard, trying to relieve his pain, but it was useless.
"… something?"
The groom seemed to be completely unaware of the existence of "Cold Branches Falling White". He looked at Cheng Zhichu's tragic state of falling on the ground, his fingertips were trembling with anxiety, and he said eagerly.
"Zhichu, hold on, I'll cut open your stomach and help you take out the things in your body, you'll be better soon!"
no... no-
Consciousness was shrouded in pain, but Cheng Zhichu still heard what the groom said, his pupils shrank suddenly, and his body trembled violently.
He wanted to stop the groom, but he couldn't raise his hand, and couldn't make any sound, only blood oozing from the corners of his mouth, watching the groom put his hands on his belly.
"No, mother will die like this, you can't save him like this!"
The little bear screamed and hugged the groom's wrist, but was immediately pulled up, and was tied with a tie by the groom and put it aside.
"You are still too young, you don't understand, only in this way can we save Zhichu."
As a ghost, the groom's way of thinking is obviously very different from that of a living person. He didn't know that Cheng Zhichu, whose abdomen was cut open at this time, would definitely die, and even thought that this was the only way to save him.
"At the beginning, it may be a little painful, you just have to bear with it, and you'll be fine."
The groom's hands gradually exerted force, and the sharp fingernails had penetrated Cheng Zhichu's wedding dress, and it seemed that his abdomen would be torn apart in the next second—
"Do not… "
A hand suddenly rested on the bridegroom's wrist, Cheng Zhichu's face was as white as paper, his voice was low, his face was full of cold sweat, and he spoke weakly.
"No, I'm all right now..."
"real?"
The bridegroom was stunned, pulled his hand down, carefully hugged Cheng Zhichu, raised his hand to wipe the sweat on his head, and asked softly, "Are you really okay?"
"never mind… "
Cheng Zhichu gasped and trembled slightly. Although he wanted to break free from the embrace of the groom, he had been tortured to the point where he had no strength and could only lean on the groom's chest. As he spoke, the blood in his mouth oozes out again. some.
Just when the bridegroom was about to tear his abdomen, Cheng Zhichu's body pain suddenly disappeared, leaving only a slight numbness, so that he could barely raise his hand to grab the groom's wrist, which could save his life.
The cold and eerie scene around him also returned to normal. The sun was warm, the green shade was lush, beautiful and quiet. The pedestrians came and went, but no one noticed the headless man in the middle of the road and Cheng Zhichu, who was covered in blood.
There was no more information from the broken mobile phone, "Cold Branches Falling White" seemed to disappear out of thin air, and there was no trace.
However, this was what made Cheng Zhichu feel the most terrifying. He didn't know if it meant that "Hanzhi Luobai" had successfully entered his body.
"… "
He touched himself with a pale face, and there seemed to be no abnormality. He was also very conscious and could control his body normally.
Could it be that "Cold Branches Falling White" has already left? is it possible…
Cheng Zhichu was really frightened. "Cold Branches Falling White" was definitely the most terrifying existence he had ever encountered since he entered the game. Just now was the moment when he was closest to death. If Han Zhi Luo Bai is killed, he will surely die tragically in the hands of the groom.
The groom hugged him gently for a long time, stretched out a hand by the way, dragged the bound bear over, and untied the tie that bound it. The bear whimpered and got into Cheng Zhichu's arms, and was too frightened. .
"You sweat a lot."
The headless man touched Cheng Zhichu's sweaty cheek: "Want something to drink?" As he spoke, his wrist suddenly cracked, blood spurted out, splashed Cheng Zhichu's face, and brought it to his lips, " Have a drink?"
"..." Cheng Zhichu declined his offer, pushed his wrist away, and sat up slowly, "No need."
He wiped the blood off his face, took out the healing potion from his backpack, and poured three bottles in a row to feel better.
The groom picked up the phone he dropped on the ground and handed it to Cheng Zhichu. Cheng Zhichu tried to press the power button, but the phone stopped moving and was completely broken by the groom.
"sorry… "
The man's tone was apologetic, his hands fell uncomfortably together, his standing posture was regular, and he sincerely admitted to Cheng Zhichu: "I broke your things."
"Because I saw the news just now, I was so angry. I thought you had someone else, but now think about it, the person who sent you the message should not be a living person, but also a ghost like me. Is he pestering you?"
Speaking of this, his voice cooled down, with a hint of sternness, and asked, "You were in so much pain just now. Could it be that he did something to you?"
"I do not know either… "
Cheng Zhichu replied vaguely, he didn't dare to say that "Hanzhiluobai" wanted to be one with him. He was afraid that if he told the truth, the groom would tear his body to shreds again out of "concern". Check him out.
Similarly, he did not dare to say how terrifying "Hanzhi Luobai" was, and asked for the groom's help, because "Hanzhi Luobai" was suddenly missing now, maybe he was dormant in his body at the moment, so he absolutely couldn't Say something that might irritate "Cold Branches Falling White".
Thinking of this, Cheng Zhichu couldn't help trembling all over, thinking extremely nervously about what he would do if "Hanzhiluobai" was really inside him, and he couldn't kiss himself...
"If there is anything unusual, you must tell me."
The groom's voice was low and dangerous: "I won't let go of those who pester you." He paused, then said, "Your face is still pale, do you want to go back to rest?"
"No, let's find your head first."
Cheng Zhichu shook his head and replied with a low expression. He just wants to end this dungeon quickly now, because the longer it drags on, the more frightened he will be. If the time goes on, he doesn't know if he will really break down.
"it is good."
The groom responded, lowered his head and said to the little bear in Cheng Zhichu's arms, "Are you here to show us the way?"
"Well… "
The little bear twitched his nose, and after a while, he lowered his head and said in a low voice: "I'm sorry, because the ghost was there just now, and it's all his breath here..." It hesitated, "Your breath, very similar, I can't identify it."
And it's not just the two of them, Mr. Xie's breath in the hospital, and Dad's breath, are all very similar, and even give it the illusion that they are all the same person...
"It's ok."
Seeing the little bear looking guilty and uneasy, Cheng Zhichu touched its little head and eased his emotions for a while, and finally had the courage to look at the groom again, and said to him, "Do you still have any memories? For example, Some specific scene, or who?"
"… Have."
The groom was silent for a moment, as if thinking, and replied.
"I don't know where this is, but in my impression, it's a villa area, surrounded by a lake, and there are many red roses, like a crimson ocean, and there is often a young man with his students. Go to the lake to paint and sketch…”
Cheng Zhichu opened his eyes in surprise.
He knew where this place was. This was the "Rose Manor" he entered when he participated in Ji Yunxiao's variety show recording. The young man was probably the painter Zhou Luochen, and the group of students were the children of the Bai family who followed Zhou Luochen to learn painting. them!
But why this dungeon is also related to the Bai family and Zhou Luochen? Is this a coincidence, or is it that something terrible happened in that villa that led to the fact that these two reality dungeons have something to do with the villa
He took out an old photo of Bai Yi from his backpack and handed it to the groom: "Do you have any impression of this person?"
"..." The groom didn't move, as if staring at the photo, and then said, "There doesn't seem to be this person among those children, but it does look familiar to me. Why do you have a picture of this person, and what is his relationship with you?"
Hearing that the groom's tone was not quite right, Cheng Zhichu put away the photo and quickly explained: "He is my friend, don't worry, I... I have no special relationship with him." At least for now.
"Is he the ghost who attacked you?"
"No, he's still alive, somewhere else." Cheng Zhichu shook his head, "I know where this place is. Since you are the most impressed here, let's go there and see, maybe we can find something."
"it is good."
The headless man agreed without hesitation. He didn't seem to worry about delaying the start of the wedding. There was even a hint of joy in his voice. He took Cheng Zhichu's hand and said, "Thank you for your willingness to know about me. "
"… "
Cheng Zhichu smiled at him unnaturally. In fact, he was only doing the dungeon. He was still quite afraid of the groom. If it wasn't for completing the dungeon, of course he would have to hide as far as possible.
Because he was going to City C, where Rose Manor is located, Cheng Zhichu's mobile phone was broken again, and he couldn't pay for the booking on his mobile phone, so he went back to the dormitory and threw his wallet into his system backpack, ready to pay with cash.
However, after leaving the school, he realized later that no one else could see him, even if he wanted to buy a ticket, others could not see him and would not serve him.
Because of this, Cheng Zhichu was forced to use the subway and train tickets for nothing, and boarded the high-speed rail directly to City C. Today is a working day, there are not many people on the high-speed rail, and there are still many vacancies, so Cheng Zhichu shamelessly occupied one. Seat, the groom took the empty seat next to him.
With his back leaning against the back of the chair, Cheng Zhichu closed his eyes, feeling exhausted physically and mentally, and just hoped that nothing would happen on the high-speed train, and let him rest for a while.
The groom seemed to know that he was tired, so he didn't make a sound, and stayed by his side quietly, reaching out and gently stroking his hair.
There was no one on the high-speed train, and the surroundings were very quiet. Cheng Zhichu became sleepy not long after, and his consciousness gradually became hazy. When he was about to fall into a deep sleep, he suddenly felt something cold and soft fell on his forehead, with a little moisture. , swipe down gradually.
It was like someone was kissing his face.
Cheng Zhichu was startled and immediately opened his eyes. He could clearly feel that his face was being kissed, but there was no one in front of him, and it was obviously not made by the groom.
What is it... Could it be "Cold Branches Falling White"? Is he back? !
[Ah, go away, go away, don't come here! what-】
Suddenly, the panicked scream of the system sounded in his consciousness, and then it suddenly went silent. Cheng Zhichu's heart jumped, calling the system in his heart, but it never answered him again.
Those icy lips slowly moved to Cheng Zhichu's ear and kissed gently, and at the same time it seemed as if a pair of arms wrapped around him and embraced him.
The groom was still sitting beside him calmly, seemingly unaware of it, still stroking his hair.
[Sorry, Zhichu... I'm sorry. 】
A certain voice resounded in Cheng Zhichu's consciousness again, but it was no longer systematic, replaced by a young man.
[I'm sorry for what I just did, but I didn't want to hurt you, I hope you don't be afraid of me. 】
[Now, we are finally integrated, are you happy? 】
Cheng Zhichu was like falling into an ice cave for a moment, froze in his seat and unable to move.
It is "cold branches falling into white".
He was literally inside him and invaded his consciousness.
But that's not the only thing that made Cheng Zhichu feel the most terrifying.
It was the voice of "Cold Branch Falling White"... It was exactly the same as Bai Yi's voice.

Bai Yi's Diary Part 68
Since I first got into this game, I have been having some concerns.
I have not seen all of my soul fragments, and although most of them have changed appearance and personality as far as I know, there are still some that still retain my appearance.
If Zhichu met such a "me" one day and knew about my past... I can't imagine how he would react.
Hope this situation never happens.
