At this moment, Cheng Zhichu looked at the slowly opened eyes, and even stopped breathing.
His body trembled slightly, his mind went blank, and his consciousness remained in a state of disbelief.
But as the man whispered his name and raised his hand to touch his cheek, an unprecedented joy and excitement instantly occupied Cheng Zhichu's mind, causing him to cry instantly, tightly holding the man's hand, choking. Called the opponent's name.
"Bai Yi..."
He was so excited that he was almost at a loss for words, and could no longer say anything else. Tears kept pouring out of his eyes. After a while, his shoulders trembled. The tears on his face were mixed with blood, and he looked quite embarrassed. What it looks like, when it falls into Bai Yi's eyes, it is an extremely cute expression.
but…
The hands of the two touched a steady stream of heat, Bai Yi slowly sat up, wiped away the tears from the corners of Cheng Zhichu's eyes with his fingertips, his movements were gentle, but looking at the blood on Cheng Zhichu's body, his eyes suddenly turned cold. Like a dark and dangerous abyss.
He didn't know if this was a new copy opened by Zhichu, and he didn't know how he was sent here, but when he was away, his Zhichu was injured like this, and he cried so much.
No matter who hurt Zhichu, he must smash that person into tens of thousands of pieces.
There was a strong killing intent in Bai Yi's heart, his fingers tightened a little bit, trying his best to maintain a calm tone, not wanting to scare Cheng Zhichu, so he spoke softly.
"Zhichu, you—"
But before he could finish speaking, Cheng Zhichu threw himself into his arms and hugged him tightly.
"… "
Feeling the warm breath of the person in his arms, Bai Yi instantly forgot what he was about to say, with undisguised surprise in his eyes, he subconsciously hugged the thin and thin back, and at the same time heard the other party cry. said breathlessly.
"You are finally back… "
"I really got you back..."
"Bai Yi, you will never be trapped in the game again, you have returned to reality..."
… back to reality
Did he understand what he meant
Bai Yi was stunned again. In just a few minutes, he was more puzzled and surprised than before. It took several seconds to digest the meaning of Cheng Zhichu's words.
He squeezed his fingers and slowly released them, only then did he realize that his state seemed to have changed subtly from before.
Although in "Infinite Escape", his body is very similar to the real entity, there is almost no difference, but there is still a difference, only he can feel it.
And now he could clearly feel that he was back in his body, so this place—
Bai Yi's eyes fell not far away, and he saw the tombstone with his name engraved on it, and the traces of the soil being turned over.
That's right, he has returned to reality and has his own body again.
"… "
The handsome man was stunned for a moment, his eyes became brighter, and his usual calm and indifferent expression also showed obvious moving, hugged the person in his arms tighter, and asked in a hoarse voice.
"... You know all about it? You helped me?"
"right."
Cheng Zhichu hugged him, nodded slightly, soft hair rubbed against the man's chest, although his face was still full of tears, his eyes were full of light, joy and satisfaction, and he spoke with a nasal voice.
"Fortunately, I succeeded, and you are back."
"Bai Yi, welcome back to reality."
"... um." Bai Yi closed his eyes, raised the corners of his lips, and hugged the person in his arms tightly.
"Thank you, Zhichu."
The two hugged silently for a long time, and the little bear chased away the surrounding corpses, and also happily "woohoo" a few times, welcoming Bai Yi's return.
After gradually calming down, Cheng Zhichu listened to the man's heartbeat, and then remembered that he had hugged him for so long, and then remembered the wedding dress he was wearing now, and suddenly panicked, blushed and left Bai Yi's arms, even I want to cover Bai Yi's eyes before the wedding dress can be seen clearly.
But before he could reach out, Bai Yi's eyes moved down, seeing Cheng Zhichu's wedding dress and his black suit, he couldn't help being a little surprised and asked, "Zhichu, what is this?"
"I… "
Cheng Zhichu was a little stunned. He couldn't think of where to start explaining, and his expression became extremely pitiful.
Seeing his bare shoulders and fair legs, Bai Yi's eyes darkened. He didn't ask immediately, but first touched the scar on the side of Cheng Zhichu's neck, and his fingertips were stained with blood.
"Who did this?"
"It's a ghost..."
Cheng Zhichu also realized that his injury had not been treated, so he drank a bottle of medicine to heal the injury, and then pulled the corner of his mouth with difficulty and explained dryly.
"He proposed to me and wanted to kill me to be his ghost bride... But fortunately, I finally included him in the illustrated book in time."
Speaking of the second half of the sentence, his voice couldn't help but soften a bit, and his expression was a little unnatural, because Bai Yi knew how to include the Boss in the illustrated book, and he really didn't want to mention it more in front of Bai Yi.
"Proposal?"
Bai Yi's face was instantly gloomy, and his tone was dangerous. His eyes fell on the ring on Cheng Zhichu's finger, and a dark color condensed: "He also gave you a ring? You also put on a wedding dress for him?"
"Yes, sorry...!"
Although he didn't know why he wanted to apologize, Cheng Zhichu shivered and said it without hesitation.
"… "
Bai Yi closed his eyes, calmed down his emotions, and spoke as gently as possible, but still couldn't hide the anger and jealousy in his voice: "Zhichu, take it off now, okay?"
"What—" Cheng Zhichu opened his mouth, and his face instantly turned red.
"And this ring." Bai Yi took his hand, squeezed the ring on his knuckles, and took it off. "Be good, let me throw it away."
Cheng Zhichu didn't feel bad for the ring, although he didn't know if the ring would come back on its own after throwing it away, but since Bai Yi didn't want to see it, he wouldn't object, so he obediently let Bai Yi take off the ring.
"… "
The engagement ring that Zhichu received was not given by him...
Bai Yi stared at the ring for a few seconds, the corners of his lips tightened, and his face was expressionless. He was about to throw the ring far away, but suddenly noticed the letters engraved on the inner wall of the ring, and his movements suddenly froze.
Because he recognized it, this is the ring he made for Cheng Zhichu before.
... This is his soul fragment proposing to Zhichu with his ring
The young man was instantly angry, his handsome face was gloomy, he didn't know whether he should throw away the ring immediately or put it back on Cheng Zhichu's hand.
Proposal, give him a ring, even let Zhichu wear a wedding dress...
If it wasn't for Zhichu already taking "he" away, he would have torn "he" into countless pieces, and even made "he" unable to piece together a complete form.
"Bai Yi..."
Seeing that Bai Yi's face was very bad, Cheng Zhichu began to feel uneasy, tugged at the corner of his clothes, and called him timidly.
Bai Yi immediately softened his expression and showed a gentle smile like water. He touched Cheng Zhichu's hair, and his eyes began to wander around Cheng Zhichu's bare shoulders and slender waist wrapped in a wedding dress. He admired it carefully, barely disappearing. anger.
… only the taste is not bad.
"Don't look at it..." Cheng Zhichu tugged down the skirt embarrassingly, "I know it's weird, but..."
"How can it be strange, you look good in clothes."
Bai Yi touched Cheng Zhichu's face and said tenderly, this is his sincere words, but it is a pity that the wedding dress has been damaged, and he has not seen the most complete and beautiful appearance.
But it is still very annoying, after all, this is not what he personally chose for Zhichu.
Cheng Zhichu's face blushed, he couldn't bear Bai Yi's gaze, and said a little shyly, "I'll change this outfit first."
The clothes he put on the wedding dress were put in his backpack, and he must change them now, otherwise without the power of the groom, he will definitely be watched after he goes out from here.
He didn't tell Bai Yi not to watch him change his clothes, both of them are men, it would be very strange if he specifically asked this, although he was too embarrassed to let Bai Yi see...
So he had to turn around by himself, pretending that no one else was there, and took off his wedding dress with his back to Bai Yi, revealing his snow-white back and straight legs. Of course, he didn't know that Bai Yi was looking at him wanton behind him. .
"All right."
Cheng Zhichu quickly put on his clothes, turned around, and smiled at Bai Yi: "Then let's get out of here now?"
"Okay." Bai Yi nodded with a smile, restrained his too hot eyes, took Cheng Zhichu's hand in a natural manner, led by Xiao Xiong and Lingbi, and walked outside.
This mass grave is very vast. When walking out, Cheng Zhichu began to talk about what happened before, and he hardly concealed anything, because he also had many questions in his heart and wanted to ask Bai Yi for answers.
He was very detailed, including the fact that he opened the real dungeon for the first time in the Bai family before, and was hunted down by "Cold Branch Luobai". The groom was attracted, but he didn't expect the groom to be Bai Yi's body, and the appearance of "Hanzhiluobai" and Bai Yi was exactly the same, and so on.
As he told the story, he also thought carefully about what had happened, and felt Bai Yi's mystery more and more.
Both of these dungeons are closely related to Bai Yi - the first dungeon revolves around the Bai family, and in the second dungeon, Bai Yi's body even turned into a Boss...
"Hanzhi Luobai", who was not originally a dungeon boss, also looks the same as Bai Yi... and what he said—
"'Hanzhi Luobai' said, there are other 'Bai Yi' exist..."
Cheng Zhichu looked at the man beside him and said hesitantly, "...Do you know what this means?"
Bai Yi did not answer him immediately, but was silent for a long time. His long silence made Cheng Zhichu feel uneasy, worried that he had asked something that should not be asked, but the people around him suddenly looked up at him, as if determined to what.
"Those are all me."
Bai Yi replied softly.
"Whether it's 'Hanzhiluobai', the groom, or even every Boss you've seen before... They're actually all me."
"Sorry, Zhichu, I've been hiding something from you."
"Actually, I knew you a long time ago."
Cheng Zhichu stopped in place and was stunned.
…
Bai Yi also recounted his own past.
What Cheng Zhichu encountered in Bai's house was true. Zhou Luochen was a murderer who killed many children. He kidnapped Cheng Zhichu, was rescued by Bai Yi, and was finally picked up by his parents. After a serious illness, the experience was forgotten.
Bai Yi thought that he caused Cheng Zhichu's misfortune, and was worried that seeing him again would make Cheng Zhichu think about it again. Later, he kept away from him and never met him again.
It took a long time until Bai Yi was attacked by Mr. Mu six years ago. When he woke up, he found that he had entered "infinite escape" and was bound to death mode. Only after clearing the game could he return to reality again.
In order to earn enough survival points to get out of this game as soon as possible, Bai Yi started his own game journey, and created the ID "Hanzhi Luobai" in the game forum, and wrote a strategy to get survival points.
His talent was outstanding, and he quickly became a top player in the game. The strategy he released also aroused huge repercussions, and was sought after by players, and he quickly earned a full amount of survival points.
However, when he chose to return to the real world, he was told by the system that he had died in reality, and that he was in a different place. Unless his body was spliced together again, he would never be able to return to reality.
"My only motivation to live here is to come back to reality and want to see you again..."
Bai Yi lowered his eyelashes, curled the corners of his lips, and his tone was careless, but it made Cheng Zhichu's heart aches.
"But then I learned that I might not be able to go back for the rest of my life - I certainly don't think that someone can get my body back, and if there is, it should be sent to cremation instead of fighting my body. together."
"...So then, I had some problems."
Even though Bai Yi was stubborn, he kept wandering alone in this bloody and dark game, and there was no possibility of escape. This kind of despair was enough to drive anyone crazy, and he was not spared.
At first he only heard chaotic whispers in his sleep, disturbing his mind, and then these murmurs gradually spread throughout the day, ringing in his ears day and night.
He thought it was his mental problem, and he took medicine to treat it, but it didn't work. Later, the symptoms became more and more serious and terrible. Sometimes he would suddenly fall asleep and wake up again in a strange place , and even once he was holding a knife in his hand, which had reached his neck.
The system told him that this was by no means a simple mental illness, but a sign of a split in his soul. If it could not be resolved, it would be extremely dangerous.
At that time, Bai Yi's state was extremely bad, and there was a risk of his soul being broken every day, and at this time, he met another person.
The man who killed him.
"I only learned his name from you now. It turns out that his name is 'Mr. Mu'."
Bai Yi said lightly: "I don't know his name, I just remember his face. When I was attacked, I turned around and caught a glimpse of his appearance. When I met him in the game, I immediately recognized him."
That was two years ago. Bai Yi and Mr. Mu happened to meet in a copy. He recognized Mr. Mu at a glance, but perhaps because Mr. Mu killed too many people, he didn't even recognize that Bai Yi was killed by him. dead people.
Bai Yi can see that Mr. Mu's strength is very powerful. Not only that, but the most terrifying thing about Mr. Mu is that he has strong luck, which makes him unfavorable.
"But he's still not lucky enough." Bai Yi curled his lips coldly. "He didn't recognize me. Although he guarded all his teammates, it wasn't enough for me."
After making enough preparations, an extremely terrifying battle took place between Bai Yi and Mr. Mu, which almost destroyed the entire dungeon world.
The result of the battle was also very tragic. Bai Yi's soul was completely broken, almost half of his soul was lost, and Mr. Mu's body was also smashed, his soul was polluted, and he turned into a huge monster, distorting several dungeon worlds. Together, absorbing the power of life and lingering.
"Since then, I have completely given up hope of leaving the game, thinking that I will eventually die in a copy, and I will never be able to see you again in this life."
"But one day you entered this game, and your system passed it on to mine. In order to see you again and protect you, I entered the same dungeon as you, pretended not to know you, and slowly approached you. ."
Seeing that Cheng Zhichu's eyes were flushed, and his lips were tightly pressed without saying a word, Bai Yi sighed softly, took him into his arms, patted his back with love and pity, and asked in a low voice.
"Do you blame me for hiding something from you, Zhichu?"
Cheng Zhichu grabbed the fabric on Bai Yi's back, and was so distressed that he sniffed, his voice full of crying, and whispered.
"I'm pissed, why didn't you tell me these things from the beginning..."
"Why didn't you come to see me later..."
"Are you going to look at me from such a distance all your life and be strangers to me forever?"
"I didn't plan to do that. I really want to meet you and let you know of my existence, but I used to tell myself time and time again that I still have a lot of time, I haven't prepared enough, and I can't be in a hurry."
Bai Yi touched his hair and replied gently.
"But after entering this game, I realized that I don't have so many tomorrows, maybe I will die in the next moment."
"So when I learned that you also entered this game, even if I didn't make any preparations, I didn't hesitate to find you and appear in front of you."
"Even if I can't leave this game, at least let you know of my existence, I don't want to die silently like this."
"It was your arrival that saved me."
"You helped me find my body, and even your picture book is collecting my soul fragments. I think the day when it is collected is the moment when I leave the game."
"Zhichu, I really appreciate you..."
Bai Yi hugged Cheng Zhichu tightly, and Cheng Zhichu also hugged him tightly, his chest was full of complicated emotions, sour and sweet, sad and happy.
It turned out that Bai Yi had been waiting to meet him again.
The name "Nianyi" refers to "I have been thinking of a person in my heart", does it also refer to him
So what kind of feelings does Bai Yi have for him, will it be the kind of feelings he has for Bai Yi
… Could he expect something from this

Should I confess to Zhichu
