"are you ready?"
The witch's cold voice echoed in the mirror space. Because there were too many mirrors reflecting her figure, at a glance, it seemed that there were hundreds of blood-red witches grinning at the same time and asking the same question.
Lin Huai glanced at himself in the mirror indiscriminately, and he in the mirror glanced at himself in the same way.
"Do I have a choice to say no?" Lin Huai said, "For example..."
He smiled coldly, and the long-handled ax slipped out of his sleeve, and the handle fell into his palm: "Chop up all your damn broken mirrors, and then leave this annoying maze full of mirrors?"
"I advise you not to." The blood-red witch calmly said, "Girls don't make such rude moves."
Lin Huai: ...
Scarlet Witch: "Oh, she looks so cute, don't be so scary—"
Lin Huai reached out and was about to throw the ax towards the mirror, but another person grabbed his wrist.
"Huaihuai, don't throw it away." The person who grabbed his slender wrist was Chu Tianshu, who was looking sharply at the mirror at the moment, "If the glass is broken, it may be more troublesome."
Lin Huai: "Why?"
He said doubtful words, but the muscles in his arms had already relaxed obediently.
"I suspect that what exists in these mirrors is not our shadow." Chu Tian said calmly, "It's one after another..."
"A real and distorted world that exists in the dark side."
The blood red witch in the mirror laughed. Lin Huai looked at Chu Tianshu in a daze: "What does this mean?"
"Everyone, more or less, has his own dark side. However, the reason why people are human is that they can control themselves with rationality and morality, and prevent their behavior from getting out of control. Perhaps what exists in these mirrors is a Yet another parallel world with out-of-control thoughts that exists in the dark side..."
Lin Huai: ...
"The time for reminiscing about the old days will end here." The blood red witch interrupted them with a smile.
In an instant, a glass curtain wall piercing into the sky appeared between the two. The glass curtain wall divides the whole road into two sides. Lin Huai and Chu Tianshu are also located at the left and right ends of the wall because of this glass curtain wall.
"Can you hear me?"
Lin Huai patted the glass curtain wall, trying to speak to Chu Tianshu through the curtain wall, but the glass curtain wall seemed to completely cut off their voices. He could only see Chu Tianshu on the other side of the glass curtain wall beating the curtain wall and talking, but he couldn't hear his voice.
Lin Huai decided to respectfully call this blood-red witch "the queen mother" in her heart.
"Okay." A blood-red figure floated on the curtain wall, looking at the two with a smile, "The game has officially begun, let's find your true path... In the maze, a few more friends have come, today is really lively. "
After saying the last sentence, the figure of the Scarlet Witch disappeared into the mirror and disappeared.
…
Qiu Ran walks in a maze made of mirrors.
After leaving the small town where Princess and the Pea lived, she made it to the maze with great effort. On the way, she also passed an out-of-control carriage and rescued a young woman from the carriage.
"Oh, oh, thank you, thank you." The woman was wearing a blue dress, her hair was a little disheveled, and her sweet appearance made people fall in love with her at first sight. She looked quite enthusiastic and cheerful, with a somewhat familiar taste. After falling to the ground, she just patted the dust on her head and skirt, and quickly got up: "Are you a player too?"
Without waiting for Qiu Ran to answer, she immediately continued: "Oh, I was stupid, you must be a player, otherwise, who would come to save me?"
As she spoke, she stood up with her skirt lifted, and patted Qiu Ran's shoulder vigorously with her hand: "Thank you, brother!"
Qiuran: ...
"I'm not a brother," she said dryly, "I'm a woman."
Woman: "Oh... I see that everyone has changed their gender, and I thought you were a man before!"
Qiuran: ...
Woman: "Hahaha, but we are all sisters now, thank you, good sister!"
... Is this person missing a string in his brain? Qiu Ran twitched the corner of her mouth.
"By the way, did you come from another small dungeon?" The woman looked at the direction she came from, "Your little dungeon is finished? How did you finish it? What kind of dungeon? Can you tell me Do you listen?"
Her barrage of questions was like a cannonball. Qiu Ran subconsciously said dryly: "My copy is Snow White's buried alive copy. It was in a coffin at first, and was chased by crows later..."
She roughly talked about her life experience, and the woman suddenly realized and nodded: "Oh, is the copy of Snow White combined with the setting of crows eating apples?"
Qiu Ran nodded, and the woman said again: "But maybe the setting of the crow eating the apple itself is a fairy tale of the Garden of Eden. Do you know the story of Adam and Eve eating the forbidden fruit?"
Qiu Ran: "What does it matter?"
The woman smiled at her: "In the fairy tales, Eve and Adam obtained human wisdom by eating the forbidden fruit, and as you said, most of those crows have the appearance of crows, but their bodies look like humans, and their stature Not one, maybe..."
"After eating the previous person, its body shape will become the appearance of the previous person. This is the so-called 'knowledge absorption'." In Qiu Ran's extremely frightened expression, the woman laughed, "Hahaha Haha, I was joking."
Qiuran: ...
"However, a creature like a crow reminds me of a person I met a long time ago. That person's nickname was also 'Crow'." When the name was mentioned, the woman smiled brightly, "Hahaha, he is a very interesting I really want to meet him again, there are not many people like him who can stimulate my creative desire."
"Desire to create?" Qiu Ran asked casually.
The woman smiled and said nothing. Qiu Ran also closed her mouth, not intending to ask more questions.
The young woman she rescued did talk a little too much, but after all, the two were strangers who met by chance—at most, a teammate was added. In terms of emotion and reason, she didn't have to ask too much.
But this so-called creative desire... probably means the desire to paint or write poems for him.
"So you're going to the place where the Witch of Envy is now?" The woman in blue straightened her dress and turned around in a circle. !"
Qiu Ran looked at her in surprise: "Is your own copy okay? By the way..."
Only then did she realize that she didn't know the copy of this woman: "What kind of plot is your birth point, and what kind of witch is it corresponding to?"
"Oh... this, haha, I was so excited just now, I almost forgot to tell you." The woman scratched her hair, "My copy seems to be the variant story of Cinderella and One Thousand and One Nights..."
"When I came, I was locked in a room, and several women were gearing up to cut off my toes. They said that the queen had a bad temper and would kill a woman a day, unless that woman could tell her a good enough story. , and I am the unlucky tribute—this stuff, I knew it was a copy of 'Rage' as soon as I heard it!" The woman said carelessly, "Then I was stupid when I lowered my head—I actually turned into a woman?! What is this, do I tell stories to tyrants every day after rebirth? I slipped out while they were not paying attention. Its manor is huge, and those people chased it fast. I managed to find one before midnight Pumpkin, ran away on a pumpkin cart..."
Qiuran: ...
Young woman: "By the way, will I have to go back at that time, really go to that tyrant's house... no, the palace?"
"It is probably necessary." Qiu Ran said sincerely, "That tyrant should be the so-called Wrath Witch..."
Young woman: "Oh, then didn't I cuckoo the Wrathful Witch?"
Qiuran: ...
Young woman: "Forget it, anyway, it's already googling, and it's not too late. I'll just follow you to the mirror witch, that is, the jealous witch."
She speaks sincerely, even the details are detailed and true, and it sounds extremely sincere. Qiu Ran thought about it for a long time and decided to take her with her.
"Okay, okay, as the saying goes, more people have more power, and it's not safe for me to stay here alone..." The young woman was happy and followed Qiu Ran. Qiuran didn't allow her to walk behind her.
After the two of them moved away from the place where the pumpkin cart crashed, the broken pumpkin that was originally in a mess moved slightly.
A hand stretched out from inside, and the fingers of the hand moved slightly, as if manipulating some invisible thread.
A dusty woman climbed out of the pieces of the pumpkin carriage.
It turns out that the woman who met Qiuran before and left with her was actually a doll!
The real manipulators wore gray, patched dresses with blond hair pulled back. There are still two scaled-down dolls hanging around her waist, their faces still retain the frightened faces before death, their faces...
It is very similar to the woman in blue who followed Qiu Ran away!
There was another person's footsteps in the woods, and a girl with a pretty face pushed aside the branches and walked out. She was wearing a black cloak, her eyes were like lakes reflecting the starry sky, and the starlight fluctuated inside: "I didn't expect you to find two usable ones so quickly. Dolls for... no, three."
The girl in the dusty skirt turned her head. She has deep eyebrows and a sunny temperament. It seems that she should be a handsome young man even as a man.
"Long time no see, Lao Xia." She waved to the other party lively, and the other party smiled softly at her.
The ashen woman pointed to her waist and said, "Stepmother, eldest sister, the one who followed her just now is the second sister. Let's go, we will follow her in the dark."
As she spoke, she sighed again, her smile still bright: "These days, there aren't many girls as easy to deceive as her."
"Let's go." Xia Xingye said calmly.
…
Qiu Ran walked in the woods with the woman in blue. The journey was long, and the two of them were bored. Qiu Ran pushed aside the leaves, and said casually: "You said before that you saw a man named Crow, and it inspired your desire to create... This man, he is very good-looking?"
The woman in blue smiled: "It's beautiful, like a work of art."
