It was a peaceful night, but that didn't mean it was peaceful on the street outside. The screams came from far and near, and they sounded familiar, as if they were the voices of the two female cultivators.
It seems that because they did not find a place to rest in time, they were attacked by unknown objects while wandering in the street. Preliminary judgment is that a ghost has come out.
After all, it is a dungeon developed in cooperation with the escape game, and there must always be some elements of ghost escape.
The screams were so disturbing that Ye Xu didn't sleep well at night. After waking up, he rubbed his temples with a headache. He didn't understand why the two girls didn't find a place to rest. Aren't they afraid of ghosts at night
"Maybe I want to seize the time to explore more places..." He Fengshuang said helplessly.
Like those who come out of their comprehension games, they generally don't have the consciousness of sleeping and resting, unless they consume too much mana and need to meditate to recover. For them, the night was just a not-so-good time to explore, that's all. However, in the escape game, wandering around at night is no different from courting death.
But it is said that the two escaped without any risk last night, and I don't know how other people concluded. Ye Xu is not very clear about some small methods of their comprehension games.
After dawn, the two parties separated. The three of Ye Xu continued to check the situation in the city to see if there was anything that hadn't been reset.
But after going to the street, they were dumbfounded.
I randomly pulled a passer-by to ask what month and day it is today, but it happened to be one day longer than yesterday. They then asked a few people, and they all got the same answer, which shows that in the eyes of the people in this city, time is moving forward, and it does not stop at a single day.
And today's streets are also starting to prepare for tomorrow's festival celebration, which is obviously different from yesterday.
"It seems that it's not time to reset yet?" The three looked at each other and came to this conclusion.
Maybe the city doesn't reset every day, but every few days. If it really hasn't been reset, then Ye Xu's conjecture may be wrong, and they need to rethink the direction.
"Let's watch first."
They also don't know when it will reset, so what can they do? I can only watch it all the time, in case the time resets anytime soon.
It seems that this dungeon can't be solved in a while, and the three people's enthusiasm faded, and they began to be passive and sabotage.
There are still many interesting things in this city, such as listening to listening to books, cross talk, and watching juggling and dancing. There are also many authentic folk delicacies in the city, which are good to pass the time.
The three excused themselves to "carefully inspect the suspicious situations in the streets and alleys", so they ate, played and walked away in an aboveboard manner. Explorations are incidental, mainly for food, drink and fun.
Along the way, I heard the common people discussing the celebration activities of tomorrow. Tomorrow is their local special festival "Praying for Immortals Festival". The busiest time of year here is the period around the Chinese New Year and the Immortal Prayer Festival.
Just when Ye Xu and the others inquired about the Festival of Prayer for Immortals, the voiceover appeared again: "It is said that the people of the City of Eternal Life have longed for immortality and ascension to immortality since tens of thousands of years ago. For this reason, they specially selected A day to worship the immortals is the Day of Praying for Immortals."
The three of them fell silent immediately, listening quietly to the voice-over telling the story of the city. This festival of praying for immortals is obviously closely related to the main task.
"The people in the city pray to the immortals on this day, hoping to bless their children in the city to obtain immortal fate, and even to cultivate longevity smoothly, so that they will no longer suffer from the world. However, they have not received immortals for many years. The response. The children in their city can’t even give birth to spiritual roots, as if they are cursed.”
"However, one day many years later, they received a response from the heavens during a certain festival of worshiping the immortals. Immortals came to the world and fulfilled their wish of immortality. Since then, the City of Eternal Life has become a real The city of 'eternal life', the people no longer have to suffer from birth, old age, sickness and death."
The story ends here. Just as Ye Xu wanted to say something to his teammates, the voice-over suddenly spoke again: "But there are still sufferings such as parting from love, meeting resentment and resentment, not getting what you want, and the five accumulations of desire."
Three people: "..." That's enough, that's enough, I get it, step back, you're the only one who talks too much.
Ye Xu was so choked that he forgot what he wanted to say. But the Eight Sufferings made him think of something else: "Birth, old age, sickness, and death are gone. It's understandable that old age, sickness, and death don't exist. After all, immortality, disease, and death are certain. But the suffering of life is gone?"
"Does it mean that there will be no more children?" He Fengshuang has never understood the eight sufferings of Buddhism, so he can only understand it literally, "It's normal to have no newborns."
Du Zhanyue shook her head: "Birth pain means that when a child is born, he feels the pain of being squeezed when he comes out of the narrow birth canal; The tender skin in the palm of my hand is squeezed and rubbed, not the pain of a woman giving birth."
"Life is over, why is there no more suffering?" Ye Xu nodded in agreement with Du Zhanyue's words, and then criticized the voice-over.
The onlookers watched the voice-over throughout the whole process: "... Life and suffering are fine too!"
Ye Xu was satisfied now.
But He Fengshuang thought it was very interesting for them to fight each other, so he started to criticize: "Why is there no death pain? Aren't they all ghosts now? They are all dead."
The voice-over who thought he was cold and cold didn't bother to answer his sand sculpture's question, and only dropped two words: "Ha ha."
It says that there is no suffering of death, so if you don’t agree with it, bite it.
"..." He Fengshuang felt that he had been treated differently, why would Ye Luo be able to criticize slightly, but he would be attacked if he provoked
Du Zhanyue almost died laughing.
Fortunately, Ye Xu remembered what he wanted to say just in time, and changed the subject: "In the story, the immortals came to the world during the Festival of Prayers to fulfill their wishes. Tomorrow is the Festival of Prayers for Immortals. If our guess If there is nothing wrong, then after the Festival of Prayer for Immortals is over, reincarnation will probably start to be reset."
In other words, yesterday was two days before the birth of the immortal in history, today is the day before the birth of the immortal, and tomorrow is the day before the birth of the immortal. After the fairy came to the world, the city people obtained eternal life in this distorted way, turning into monsters that were neither human nor ghost, and then time continued to cycle at this stage.
— Don’t they want to live forever? Then let them experience the last three days before meeting the immortal forever. As long as time doesn't move forward, wouldn't they be immortal
"What the hell kind of fairy is this? It's definitely not a decent fairy from the fairy world." Du Zhanyue frowned, "This kind of method is more like a demon heretic."
In the professional field, Ye Xu couldn't intervene, so he could only listen to what they had to say.
He Fengshuang also expressed his opinion: "If the time cycle continues, then the people who dream back at midnight remember the truth, and there will be a lot of resentment and hatred. For evil cultivators, these resentment powers are of great use. "
Regardless of whether it is a human evil cultivator who has not yet ascended or an evil fairy in the sky, the power of resentment generated by the people is a good thing for them. Either use it for cultivation, or use it to brew a bigger conspiracy.
But the people who made the arrangements were really powerful. They didn't feel the power of resentment at all during the day, but only felt a trace of leaked resentment at night. It is also because of this resentment that they firmly believe that this city of eternal life is just as they deduced, and it is constantly reincarnated.
"If this is the case, does that mean that tomorrow's ceremony of praying to the Immortals is a breakthrough?" Ye Xu's eyes lit up. "If the ceremony is destroyed and the immortals fail to descend, then the city's problems can be solved?"
He Fengshuang shook his head: "It's not that simple. What you destroy is just a repeat of history, not a change in history. I guess after the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven is successful, no immortal will come out again, but it will be directly reset to the place where the dungeon started. This situation. If the ritual of offering sacrifices to heaven is destroyed and the time is not reset, the player should be able to escape from the city. This is probably a normal way to clear the level, not a way to complete the hidden mission."
"Crazy He is right." Du Zhanyue also agreed with his point of view, "But I already have a clue about how to complete the hidden mission."
"What?" He Fengshuang asked.
Ye Xu suddenly said: "I see, is it necessary to destroy the formation that collects resentment? That formation should be the culprit that locked up the people in the city and prevented them from dying and reincarnating. As long as it is destroyed, People in the city will be able to go to rebirth, and the city will naturally be dealt with."
"Not bad." Du Zhanyue looked at him approvingly.
He Fengshuang figured it out slowly, and he yelled: "You can all think of this, it's too inhuman!"
"… thanks, but we think you're just too stupid to think of that."
He Fengshuang was immediately annoyed: "I'm not stupid!!!"
"But how can we destroy the formation?" Ye Xu asked the professionals.
Du Zhanyue said: "Find the eye of the array and destroy it."
He Fengshuang also calmed down: "There should be two to three formation eyes, if the formation to confine the people and the formation to collect grievances are not the same. The remaining formation is to hide the city, if there is no such thing , this city cannot be safe and sound until now, it has been discovered by seniors in the cultivation world long ago."
Even if this is just a regional dungeon with a small map, no seniors from the cultivation world will appear at all, and such obvious bugs will not appear in the dungeon. There is still a hidden formation that should be there, otherwise the logic will not work.
"You finally said something useful." Du Zhanyue looked relieved that my dog had just grown up, "Keep working hard, come on."
He Fengshuang snorted arrogantly, never admitting that he was quite happy after being praised. It's just that Du Zhanyue looked at him a little strangely, and always felt that there was some special meaning.
The author has something to say:
Du Zhanyue: Eyes? That is the look in the eyes of my two hundred catty silly dog [gratified smile.jpg]
