After Suer said these words, he kept his eyes on the Qinglian wise man for a moment. The latter did not move, and still stood not far or near, smiling and watching the players have afternoon tea.

"I'm probably thinking too much." He frowned, but the host was really wrong, even a ghost couldn't blink the same frequency.

Ji Heng: "It is indeed data, but not the data of the game."

Because he always likes to compare games to sophisticated instruments in private, Sur has a little association: "Artificial intelligence?"

Ji Heng nodded: "I have been to a dungeon, and there are many intelligent people in it. Compared with humans, they have a very distinctive feature... There is no anger."

Sul was stunned.

"The original intention of artificial intelligence is to provide services for human beings," Ji Heng: "Anger will bury hidden dangers."

However, with the development of intelligence to a certain extent, without excess emotions, it can help them make a good cover up. No one will know the real thoughts behind the smile.

Sur thoughtful: "No wonder he doesn't get angry when I do anything."

"But these are just guesses," Ji Heng smiled: "It still has to be verified."

Sur blinked: "Is it the kind of verification method I thought?"

Ji Heng nodded: "The simpler the better."

Sur then faced the host, raised his hand and stood up: "Excuse me, are you an intelligent person?"

"… "

Some players eat cakes for a while, pretending not to hear anything and continue to eat, and some think that Sur is crazy, even if there is any guess, how can there be a grand question

The hall fell into dead silence, Qinglian wise man slowly turned his face and nodded: "Yes."

Sur patted his chest: "It scared me to death, I thought it was the end of the game to tear me up."

The girl sitting on the right silently moved the stool to the side, trying to stay away. It was the first time she knew that people could speak so freely.

Qinglian wise man had a smile on his face: "The player is just a pebble, the game is a majestic mountain."

Even if a stone rolls in the wrong direction, even if it escapes along the river, it will not be damaged in the mountains and rivers.

Sur hurriedly said, "I just called the game a dog because of my fear. Will I be retaliated against?"

The sound of sucking cold air came from all around, and the player opposite was not bad. He gave Ji Heng a wink and motioned for him to stop Sur from continuing.

Ji Heng shook his head, indicating that he was fine.

In the dungeon, it is most taboo to use human thinking to speculate on the game. There is no joy, sorrow or joy in the game. If there were, Sur would have died long ago. For it, there are only two kinds of threats and no threats.

Sure enough, Qinglian wise man also conveyed a similar meaning: "The game will listen selectively, and abusive words are not in its scope."

Sur twitched the corners of his mouth, keyword search

"I'm full." Trillion suddenly stood up, seemingly ready to go back to the guest room to rest.

He took the lead, and the others left one after another. The monsters outside were almost scattered at the moment, and he was more daring to go to the supermarket to pick up some daily necessities.

Trillion left to give Sur a step down, but Sur did not follow, holding a cappuccino with too much sugar and sipping it.

"After drinking this cup, go to the mall to find some change of clothes." Ji Heng said.

Only then did Sur nodded and was about to leave. When he was about to reach the revolving door, he looked back. The host still had a curved smile on his face.

·

After showering and changing into clean clothes, it was already seven o'clock in the evening.

Su Er was sitting on the bed summarizing the existing information, and when he encountered doubts, he was about to communicate with Ji Heng, but there was a sudden change outside the door.

A thin card was stuffed in through the crack of the door, and Sur picked it up from the ground. Looking through the cat's eyes, he could still see the back of the rabbit waiter.

The card is very retro, with 'City of Hope' printed on the front, and a little story at the beginning:

The young traveler was dying of thirst in the desert, and he prayed desperately that he was willing to pay any price as long as he found an oasis.

God heard his call and came to the world: "Even if it is life?"

The traveler's throat was on fire, and he endured the burning pain and replied, "Anyway, I'm going to die. I can drink a sip of water and die without regrets."

God brought him to an oasis, the traveler drank water and found the taste of life again, he forgot his promise with God, scolded God for his ugliness, and accused God of being a devil...

The story came to an abrupt end here, with a line written in red pen at the bottom:

--The game [people in the story] will start at 10 o'clock tonight, players who want to participate, please gather in the lobby on time.

After reading the contents of the card, Sur laughed: "Does it count as brainwashing?"

No matter how you look at it, the above stories are meant to satirize the relationship between players and the game.

"But it's not wrong to think about it." He threw the card aside and poured a glass of water: "With my temperament, living in a town like Wudu, life is definitely better than death."

At this time, if a voice suddenly came from his ear, saying that he could help him get out of this, at the cost of going through countless life and death tests in the future, he would most likely choose to agree.

When people come to the end, it is inevitable that they will have the idea of fighting with fate.

Ji Heng's eyes became deeper and deeper, and he only said, "No one owes anyone anything if you live on."

The game helps them escape the twisted world they originally lived in, and there must be some plans, and what they have to do is to do their best to live under the rules set by the game until one day they are free.

Suer is not a person who likes to feel sad in spring and sad in autumn. Seeing that there are still more than two hours, hurry up to make up for sleep.

The difficulty level is not clearly stated on the card, and it is not too easy to deliberately choose a later time.

At ten o'clock in the evening, the hall was full of people.

Looking at the players with different faces, Qinglian Zhishou first explained the game rewards.

"This round of games is designed to help you explore the 'I.'"

Combined with the mortal situation, Sur quickly deduced that the so-called 'id' refers to what the real self was like in that forgotten past.

Among the people present were several players who were still confused and asked aloud the meaning of this sentence.

Questions that are not within the prescribed scope, Qinglian wise men will ignore them with a smile.

"In the past few years, the death rate of this game has been very high," his eyes swept over everyone's face, and he gave his last mercy: "There is still a chance to quit."

In silence, Su Tangying asked, "How tall is it?"

Qinglian Wise: "The worst time, only one person survived."

Su Tangying clenched his sleeves: "You said that the survival rate of cheating is very high."

Qinglian wise man nodded: "Although many people died that time, ten people did not choose to participate."

Not long after the voice fell, a player took the lead in making a decision: "I quit."

With the first one who retreated, the second and third soon appeared.

Seventeen players, and finally decided to stay only six, not even half.

Leaving the green hills without worrying about no firewood is what most people think.

Sur suddenly spoke, just to confirm: "Can I participate?"

Qinglian wise man nodded: "Everyone has the right to self-analysis."

After confirming that no one left, he nodded in satisfaction and sent palm-sized mirrors to the remaining players in turn.

"Because it is a difficult mini-game, the rewards are specially distributed in stages."

In the past, rewards could only be obtained after customs clearance, this method is obviously more humane.

Sur was studying the small mirror, there was a red peach heart in the upper right corner, the color was very bright.

"This peach heart represents your life," Qinglian wise man said with a smile: "Whenever it starts to beat, it proves that it is at the juncture of life and death. If you can survive successfully, the mirror will give a text prompt about the self... that is You used to have a true inner monologue."

A gust of wind blew in, and Sur's body seemed to be drained of water in an instant, and was absorbed into the mirror little by little.

There were several other players who had the same experience as him, and the picture was too terrifying, which made those who flinched feel a little fortunate in their hearts.

Trapped in the mirror, Sur tapped lightly and found that he could still hear a clear voice: "How can I get out?"

"Three escapes."

Before Suer thought about it carefully, he found that the environment he was in had changed again.

The scorching sun irrigated its temperature from overhead, and the sand under him made his skin sore and itchy. Sur vaguely saw some people lying beside him. Everyone was in a similar state, and they didn't even have the strength to open their mouths to speak.

Trying to adjust his breathing, he barely supported himself, the mirror red heart in his hand was flashing frantically. According to the host, it was dying.

It's unclear how long this dehydrated body can hold up, and there is only one way to go. While Sur pondered, someone had already prayed devoutly before him.

There was a small dark cloud in the sky, and under the rare shade, everyone regained a little strength.

God appeared, and he floated in mid-air, dazzling and dazzling, and he could vaguely see a bit of a sad face.

"I can send you to the oasis, but in three days, you will give your life to me."

The player said the same words as on the small card, agreeing to the transaction. The moment he nodded, he disappeared from the desert.

The yellow sand is boundless, and the sun is blazing. If you continue to struggle, you are gambling your life. Everyone chooses the same method: pray to the gods.

This includes Su Er and Ji Heng.

With the help of God, Sur was successfully transported to a meadow and drank several sips of water happily.

The red peach heart stopped beating temporarily, which means that the first escape and ascension were successful.

"It's an easy start, but it's a trade with life." With a hoarse voice, Sur turned his face and saw Li Zicang.

The latter is dealing with a sunburn on his body and has a bitter smile.

Sur's deepest impression of Li Zicang was his rabbit simulator who liked to grab food, which was unique among all the rabbit people at that time.

Li Zicang came over and generously showed the text on the mirror: [I'm so hungry, I want to eat a full meal. ]

Sur did not hide his information: [When will the world imprisoned by stereotypes be destroyed? ]

"This is the real thought in my heart at a certain stage." Li Zicang lowered his eyes and said, "At that time, we were still living in a distorted world."

Sur was slightly surprised, the other party probably also speculated that the player was originally a person living in the dungeon.

Li Zicang sighed deeply: "I'm different from others. I have an uncontrollable habit of collecting food and weapons since I was a child."

After entering the game, this desire is even stronger.

"By chance, I got scattered clues, plus the reward for winning the game during the day, enough to prove something."

That's why he will unswervingly participate in the game at night.

Sur: "Are you reincarnated as a starving ghost?"

Li Zicang laughed and said, "The clues obtained in the first round of exploration games are 'disasters'."

Everyone's hopes are different, so there is no need to make extra cover up.

"Disaster, hunger, collection addiction..." Sur raised his eyebrows: "End times?"

Li Zicang spread his hands: "Who knows?"

While talking, Sur vaguely saw two people in the trees on the other side of the river, ready to go over to see if there was any sign of Ji Heng.

Li Zicang joined him temporarily, pointing to a place far ahead: "There is a bridge there."

As they approached, a familiar figure stood on the bridge.

Sur breathed a sigh of relief and waved his arm.

Ji Heng came this way.

Approaching Sur, only to find that the other party's brows have not been stretched.

"Hint... not so good?"

Li Zicang stood beside him with a thirst for knowledge. In fact, he was very curious about the inner aspirations of people like Ji Heng.

Ji Heng directly handed the mirror to Sur, the words on it were a bit dense: [Everything is tiresome, I see it in the eyes of those people for granted, they enjoy the blessing, but never try to share. Darkness is coming, I am eager to see a young and vivid soul, who can be weak, incompetent, or even dragged back, but there will be a never-ending freshness in his eyes, grateful and aggressive, who can move forward side by side with me. The peach trees in the yard are dying now, and I know that means…]

"What does it stand for?" Sur and Li Zicang almost said in unison.

How come the key is gone!

Sur's mouth twitched: "Isn't there a character limit for mirrors?"

He and Li Zicang were both self-analysis in one sentence. How could he know that Ji Heng would have a large inner monologue.

This time, both of them looked a little weird when they raised their eyes.

"Young, grateful, shoulder-to-shoulder..." Sur picked up the keywords with an indescribably complicated expression: "Brother, you entered the game just to advertise for marriage?"

The air fell silent.

Li Zicang was also speechless. Although he didn't know his past experience, he desperately had to escape from a cruel world where he couldn't even eat. From Sur's prompt, he could guess that the other party should have lived in a world with strict rules. The place.

They are like the young travelers in this story, who are in a desperate situation and are willing to make an exchange with God.

One for having a full meal and enjoying peace.

If one wants to get rid of the bondage, there is a law to follow.

As for Ji Heng, his original intention was summed up as being alone for a long time, and he wanted to find a partner to go on.

Thinking of this, Li Zicang couldn't help but sigh: "What a simple dream!"
