Under the ever-changing colorful lights like those in a bar KTV, Yu Ze whispered something in his mouth.
Bai Zhi: "..."
Naturally, he had expected a power outage, so he had prepared candles long ago... But he had not calculated that he would meet his ex-girlfriend here.
It is precisely because of this that his mood became quite complicated for a while. Affected by his mood, the soft white light that was originally expected to emit also turned into this colorful neon light...
"Okay, let's continue the previous topic."
Pretending not to hear the other party's complaints, Bai Zhi spoke seriously after instructing the shadow guard to light candles in the room.
"Please explain to me, what exactly happened here?"
"… reincarnation."
After glancing in Bai Zhi's direction, Huanyan spoke after a moment of silence.
"As time goes by, the entire Linjiang County will become more and more terrifying, and terrifying monsters and endless strange phenomena will continue to breed in this city. In this reincarnation called Infinite, I am the subject, As soon as I die, everything will start from scratch."
"That's not the answer we want to hear."
Looking at the girl over there, Yu Xing frowned slightly.
The information the other party told was not valid information at all, it was just a bunch of nonsense.
"So, what do you want to hear from me?"
Looking up at Yu Xing, the girl's face was expressionless.
"Because as soon as I die, reincarnation will start again, so you always protect me very well. Yes, I admit this. Without your protection, I would have died long ago, and I might not even be able to leave that house. Get out, what next?”
"If this is the case, then you should actively cooperate with us."
At this time, Qin Lin couldn't help but speak.
"Because we are all here to protect you..."
"protect me?"
Interrupting Qin Lin's words, the girl had a sneer on her face.
"No, you just use me as an insurance policy. Once you have too many casualties, you will not hesitate to kill me and start everything from scratch."
When she said this, the girl's words became even colder.
"So far, reincarnation has gone on 31 times. In these 31 reincarnations, I have been killed by you 31 times. Don't you want to know why reincarnation keeps going on? This is the reason."
"this… "
As the words came out of Huanyan's mouth, except for Yu Xing, who had expected it in his heart and looked thoughtful, everyone else froze there.
"Impossible, I will never allow this to happen."
After glancing at Yu Xing who was standing aside and frowning fiercely, Li Boshang began to speak.
"Yeah?"
After glancing at Li Boshang, the girl looked indifferent.
"I admit that you are indeed qualified to say this. After all, most of the time, you are the first to die, and it is not your turn to make a choice... But there are always exceptions to everything. .”
Lowering her eyes, the girl's tone seemed extremely calm.
"I can't remember how many reincarnations it was, but in that reincarnation, you rarely survived to the end, but except for you, everyone else died, and then after completing the mission and resurrecting your companions, you Faced with these two choices, you chose the latter."
"..."
"So, this is a multiple-choice question that is easy to answer. After all, as long as I die, everything can be repeated. You will have unlimited opportunities to try and make mistakes. Under human nature, you will naturally choose casualties. The smallest path.”
No emotion could be heard in the girl's words.
"The truth about reincarnation? The truth is that I have been killed by every one of you. The difference is just the number of times. Among you, someone killed me 24 times."
"...If this is the case, then you should cooperate with us, right?"
After exhaling a little breath in his mouth, Yu Ze spoke at this time.
"Although it's a bit shameless to say this... But as long as you can provide accurate information, we can complete the strategy quickly. This will be good for you, right?"
"Yes, that's right. What you said makes sense. Even if I've been killed by you so many times, I should help you regardless of past grudges. After all, it's just death that can be resurrected. It's no big deal."
Turning to look at the other party, the girl had an indifferent expression on her face.
"But how do you know that all I experienced was death?"
"..."
Yu Ze stopped talking.
"Okay, let me say a few words."
Bai Zhi reached out and pressed his forehead. Looking at the people in front of him, Bai Zhi narrowed his eyes and spoke.
"I don't care what happened between you, but given the bad battle situation you had before, we will protect her in the future. Is that okay with you?"
"Of course there is a problem."
As soon as Bai Zhi finished speaking, Yin Lin subconsciously retorted.
"After all you..."
"We don't have anything to say about this kind of thing. She has to make her own choice."
Bai Zhi raised a finger in front of him and shook it, then looked in Li Boshang's direction.
"What do you think?"
"As it should be."
With a slight sigh in his mouth, Li Boshang waved his hand to stop his teammates' words.
"But I still hope you can share information with us."
"Of course, after all, we have a cooperative relationship."
Bai Zhi shrugged slightly and spread his hands in front of him.
It would be best to be able to deal with nature in this way, otherwise, he really has no good reason to bring Huan Yan over.
"What was that sentence you didn't finish just now?"
Looking at the girl standing up from their side, Yu Xing suddenly asked.
He figured out some things, including the other party's cold attitude towards him, but there were some things he still couldn't figure out.
"There is one person among you who has been secretly preventing the completion of the mission."
Stopping, Xingyan spoke calmly.
"It is precisely because of that person's existence that reincarnation will proceed to the 32nd time."
… … … … … … … … …
In the dim room, the candlelight is always bright.
The rain was pouring outside the window, but the house was quiet. Two waves of people were sitting opposite each other in the small room.
Regarding the piece of information that Huan Yan said, the two parties had a tacit understanding and did not have a more in-depth discussion. Instead, they discussed other related matters.
"… rabbit?"
"Yes, according to the information in the movie, a rabbit wearing a magic hat will appear in this B&B."
Because Yu Xing fell into deep thought for some reason and didn't know what he was thinking about, Yu Ze had to speak on his behalf.
"In the original movie plot, the heroine hid in this B&B while escaping from this small town, and then encountered a series of... don't look at me like that?"
Being stared at by the girl sitting on the sofa, Yu Ze felt a little panicked and raised his hand helplessly.
"Hundreds of horror movies are released every day in the movie library of the Lord God's space. Who knows where these horror films come from? It's useless for you to come to me to protest. You have to go to the Lord God."
"You go on."
After waving his hand, Bai Zhi spoke.
"What the hell is that rabbit?"
"Dreamland."
It didn't mean that he had spoken. At this time, Huanyan took the initiative to speak.
"That rabbit can take people to dreams."
"...Dream?"
Turning his head, Bai Zhi glanced at the girl next to him.
"Yes, according to his speculation, the opportunity to solve this incident lies in the dream."
While saying this, Huanyan glanced at Yu Xing who was standing aside.
"You should also have discovered that now in Linjiang County, most people have fallen into dreams that cannot be awakened, and as time goes by, everyone will eventually fall into dreams... This is infected Preliminary stages.”
"Infect?"
Frowning slightly, Bai Zhi suddenly thought of the conjoined people he had discovered there before.
"Well, so falling asleep here is a very scary thing. Once you fall asleep, it is absolutely impossible to wake up."
Looking towards Bai Zhi, Huan Yan nodded lightly.
"Although you seem to be fine now, as long as you are still in Linjiang County, your sleepiness will gradually deepen as time goes by, until you finally fall into an irreversible state of sleep."
"Then what?"
Thinking of Mu Qianse who had fallen asleep inexplicably before, Bai Zhi's brows couldn't help but frown even more.
"What happens after you fall asleep?"
"Two situations. One situation is that the consciousness is swallowed by dreams, and the body reflected in reality undergoes strange and irreversible changes... For example, every time it is killed, an additional copy will be made and then resurrected."
"...for example, your family members?"
Yu Ze suddenly thought of the evil ghosts they had encountered who had come back from the dead in that house before.
"Yes, my father was the original source of the strange infection."
Huanyan's face was expressionless.
"Well… "
"What about the second scenario?"
Bai Zhi reached out and pressed his forehead, then asked.
“…scenes from dreams appear in reality.”
After some silence, Huanyan answered.
"If the self-awareness of those who fall into deep sleep cannot be swallowed by dreams, as time goes by, their dreams will gradually appear and be confused with reality... And there are endless monsters in dreams that can't be killed. .”
"Is this like this..."
Bai Zhi reached out and touched his chin, with a thoughtful look on his face.
"The latter is easy to deal with. You just need to kill those sleeping people with cold blood. But as for the former, their true bodies are hidden in dreams. Only by going deep into the dream to find their true bodies can they be killed. Get rid of it."
Lowering his eyes, Huanyan told the information he had summarized in the previous 31 reincarnations without reservation.
Originally, she didn't plan to publish this critical information, and planned to use it as her own bargaining chip.
-But now, she has changed her mind.
"Uh... Since your father is the original source of infection, we just need to kill your father?"
After reaching out and scratching his head, Yu Ze asked.
"It sounds like it's not too difficult...?"
"If it were that simple, you wouldn't be reincarnated 31 times in a row."
Looking up at the other party, Bai Zhi shook his head.
"So? Since the function of the magic rabbit is to take us into dreams, what is the function of the card?"
"Recognition."
At this time, Yu Xing suddenly spoke.
