Cui Zuojing suggested: "Let's find a suitable place to talk."
Dong Zheng just had time to take a good look around. They were in a place like a study. The three large bookcases in this room were full of books, and there were a lot of books on the ground. It was like the Pied Piper's bedroom in Hameln's castle. A replica of it, almost without a place to stay.
When Allen fell in, he encountered a stack of books, which caused a terrifying chain reaction. Several stacks fell to the ground. He and Linhai got up and were about to clean up when Fu Zhedongxiao waved gently, and the books were enchanted. Crashing and flying and re-stacking.
While everyone was stunned, Fu Zhe said, "Let's go, go downstairs to the living room and talk."
Five people and one cat went to the living room and sat on the sofa. Dong Zheng observed that the structure of this ancient castle was almost identical to the one in Hameln, but the furnishings were very modern. There are fabric sofas, gunpla models, crystal paintings, on the wall opposite the fireplace, and even an oversized video game console.
Fu Zhe: "I don't know how much A Zuo told you about us, but now, let me explain what I have about myself first."
Cui Zuojing: "I basically didn't say anything... Well, I told Dong Zheng a little."
Fu Zhe: "Then let me briefly talk about it, the posthumous world we are in is called the Pure White World, and there are five basic components here, namely time, space, body, dream, and chaos.
"And I can control the power of part of the space. Just re-arranging the books is a manifestation. There is also the key that I send to Ah Zuo, no matter what kind of door you open anywhere, you can come to me, you guys Teams can stay here from now on, and if they want to go out, they just need to think about their destination and open any door.”
Allen couldn't help sighing: "So awesome? It's like hanging up."
Dong Linhai: "Wait, SCP-005?"
Everyone looked at him, only Alan and Dong Zheng did not understand, Cui Zuojing snorted: "Do you still know SCP?"
Lin Hai raised his chest and said, "Of course! Anyway, I've been involved in the Internet literature industry for so many years, but I don't know much, so I can only get a general understanding."
Fu Zhe smiled helplessly: "Almost, every key that has been empowered by me can have the ability of 005. Because of certain things, I have been put on a curse, and I can never leave this castle. The main reason why I have to invite you here."
Allen poked Dong Zheng quietly and asked in a low voice, "So what is that SPC, have you figured it out?"
Dong Zheng shook his head: "I'll ask later."
"I, Azuo, and Victor are all former pilgrims, belonging to the same team, and encountered something very dangerous in a certain box, so that I was imprisoned in this castle, and Victor became A cat, and Azuo—"
Fu Zhe looked at Cui Zuojing, the boy curled his lips, and announced openly, "Okay, my time has been frozen, and I will always remain in my sixteen-year-old appearance."
Dong Zheng was stunned: "Actually, your real age is older than this?"
Cui Zuojing: "It's much older. I lived in the Pure White Realm for three years before, and it took me another eight years to become your prisoner after the accident. If you think about it seriously... I'm almost 27 years old."
Linhai: …
Alan: …
Dong Lin Haifeng was petrified in the wind. Every time he was scolded by Cui Zuojing before, he used "don't be as knowledgeable as a child" to persuade himself. I didn't expect him to be about the same age as Dong Zheng!
Cui Zuojing waved his hand: "Don't worry about these insignificant details, my age has nothing to do with what I want to say, let's continue."
Fu Zhe: "Our purpose is to ask you to help lift the curse."
Dong Zheng: "What should I do?"
"I checked a lot of information after being trapped. If the seals of Azuo and Victor are to be lifted, they need some opportunities, and the opportunities may eventually appear in various boxes. So they have to participate in the boxes with you and use them as much as possible. The more power to be sealed, the better, after reaching a certain threshold, the seal will be unlocked under the action of an opportunity.”
"I need to take back all the three soul fragments that were scattered before in order to unlock all the seals, and this also requires your help."
Fu Zhe paused and asked softly, "So, are you willing to lend a helping hand?"
Linhai and Allen both looked at Dong Zheng, Dong Zheng did not answer directly, but said: "Cui Zuojing Victor are me and Linhai's prisoner summoned beasts, no matter what, they must follow us to participate in the box, and use If you can learn about the relationship between the three of you, if you can learn about the Soul Fragment, you will surely persuade us to find it."
Cui Zuojing thought he was going to do something unexpected: "Ah, that's right, so it doesn't seem to matter what your answer is?"
Dong Zheng nodded: "We are willing."
Fu Zhe smiled and said: "Very good, I hope we can cooperate happily in the future. If you need any help from me, please don't be polite. The space outside the castle is often messy, and you can't see anything through the windows here. If you feel bored, you I can live in the house I applied for on weekdays, and come to me with the key at any time if something happens.”
After Fu Zhe got up, his calm conversation and demeanor made Dong Zheng realize that he was the commander Cui Zuojing used to be in the team.
"I'm going to talk to Fu Zhe, you can do it yourself."
Cui Zuojing left a sentence, and Victor and Victor followed Fu Zhe upstairs, leaving only a pair of brothers and Alan in the living room.
Dong Zheng's brows were slightly wrinkled in the confusion on his face, thoughtful.
Allen tentatively said: "So the three of us and the three of them will be a cooperative relationship from now on? This development is too amazing! Why do I feel like I jumped into a pit?"
Dong Linhai: "It's too late to regret it now. You have already been dragged into the thief ship by my brother, so you should obey. But why do I feel that they are the ones who suffer? With their strength, they can obviously find a stronger team. , not our newcomers."
Cui Zuojing disappeared at the corner of the second floor, and Dong Zheng looked back: "That's because there is no choice. It was an accident that Cui Zuojing became my prisoner. I'm sure, if not for the existence of the blood contract, he would have Kill me directly, and then find the next master who suits his heart."
Allen didn't know there was such a thing, "ah".
In contrast, Linhai is the most calm: "Anyway, it is a win-win relationship, so it's fine if you don't get caught."
Dong Zheng took a deep breath: "Let's do it for now, but remember, even if Cui Zuojing is my prisoner, Victor is a summoned beast of Linhai, and Fu Zhe is helping us, we cannot easily give all our trust."
"Of course." Allen nodded. He lowered his voice and said, "To be honest, that Pied Piper feels a little strange to me. I hope it's just me being preconceived, or because he acts a little mysterious."
"Dong Zheng." At this time, Cui Zuojing stuck his head out from the railing on the second floor and beckoned to him, "Come up."
Dong Zheng got up, and Cui Zuojing took him into the living room and closed the door.
Fu Zhe stood by the window, Victor squatted on the table, Cui Zuojing stood in front of them and said to Dong Zheng, "Let's check the light that entered your body in the secret realm, get closer."
Dong Zheng then took two steps forward, facing Cui Zuojing, the boy pressed his right hand on his chest, and at the same time Victor stretched out his pink forefoot, Fu Zhe held the dongxiao and pressed it against his heart.
Orange-yellow, lavender, and emerald-green rays of light emerged from the fingertips of the three of them, entangled in Dong Zheng's chest.
The unprecedented sense of fullness made Dong Zheng gasp in a low breath. It was the wonder that every cell in his body was full of power. He lowered his eyes, just to see the top of Cui Zuojing's hair and the slightly trembling eyelashes.
A few seconds later, Fu Zhe took the lead in withdrawing the flute, and Victor sat down again.
Those powers that did not belong to him were withdrawn, and Dong Zheng seemed to fall from the sky to the ground at once. The huge drop made him frown, resisting the discomfort in his body, and asked, "How is it?"
Fu Zhe: "It's very gentle, it just sits there silently, and doesn't respond to our temptation."
Cui Zuojing smoothly smoothed the folds of Dong Zheng's clothes on his chest and patted his chest, "It seems that it can only be left there for the time being."
Victor nodded and said solemnly: "If there is any change in it, be sure to let us know as soon as possible."
"it is good."
Apart from this word, Dong Zheng didn't know what else to say. Cui Zuojing relaxed and was a little tired. He and Victor were far inferior to Fu Zhe in terms of time and physical strength. I went back to the real world, and I could only bear the curse and not be able to use it.
But Fu Zhe is different. He has been studying how to break the seal for eight years. Just now, Cui Zuojing gave him the "goodwill" of the fragments he got in Hameln, so the first path that was in jeopardy a long time ago The seal was finally broken.
"Let's rectify it, and go to the ability awakening tomorrow. If there is anything you don't understand, ask us any one of them." The coat of arms flashed on the back of Dong Zheng's hand, Cui Zuojing sighed lightly, and his figure gradually faded, "I Probably need a break."
The young man disappeared in front of everyone, Fu Zhe leaned on the edge of the table, and smiled at Dong Zheng: "Since you are the one chosen by Ah Zuo, I believe that you will have excellent abilities, let's go."
When Dong Zheng returned, Dong Linhai and Allen had already explored the first floor of the castle. Like Hameln, there is also a dungeon here, but it has been converted into a workshop by Fu Zhe, and there are many strange mechanical devices and chemicals in it, I don't know what to do.
Many decorations in the castle are very modern, and there is even a huge game screen.
Dong Zheng told them that he was going to awaken his ability tomorrow, and Alan, who had known about it for a long time, was eager to try: "I hope I will have a particularly cool ability, Magneto, Wolverine, Red Tank, Phoenix, just come and go. Can destroy the world! Hey, what kind of power do you want?"
He gently bumped Dong Linhai to stabilize his swaying body. He was also full of expectations for the next day, and said with a smile, "I don't know, but I hope it's more practical."
So, when Dong Linhai stood in front of the awakening tester the next day and saw the bent spoon in his hand, he felt bad.
"What? What do you mean?! Got it wrong!"
The huge butterfly responsible for the awakening guidance was attached to the dome of the building, and the soft voice reached the ears of everyone in the hall:
"Congratulations, Mr. Dong Linhai, you have successfully awakened the ability to bend the spoon."
