Chapter 314 Where is he
Jian Yue looked at the words on the stone tablet somewhat stiffly, and stood there in a daze.
There is no other reason.
It's totally because!
Because of this handwriting! He recognized it! It was his own handwriting!
Is there anything more despairing in this world than finding your own handwriting on a strange stone? No, it's absolutely impossible!
Jian Yue quietly looked at the words on the stone tablet. Even though it had a long history and had been so long, he could still recognize what was written on it. He took a closer look and could actually tell clearly what was written on it: "I regret it and will never see you again."
?
What does this mean?
Jian Yue looked at the line of words. The strokes were smooth and unrestrained. It seemed that one could tell the mood of the writer at the time. He should be very unrestrained. Even the period at the end was the stroke he often used.
This incident revealed one thing everywhere - these were really his words. When he didn't know it, he had passed by this stone tablet and left a line of words on the stone tablet of the owner of this tomb.
Jian Yue looked at the stone tablet seriously, frowning slightly.
Just when the audience in the live broadcast room thought he was going to say something, Jian Yue said: "Tsk, how much effort did I put into writing these words, to be able to leave marks on the stone?"
Audience: “…”
That’s enough, Butler Wang! Go home, go home, okay!!
When Jian Yue was about to turn around and leave, an inexplicable force attracted him to stay. As if possessed by a ghost, he reached out and slowly stroked the words, brushing away the dust covering them, and then finally revealing the clear surface underneath. He could finally see clearly that there was a word among them, "regret", which had been stroked countless times, and its surface was exceptionally round and smooth.
This is stone.
The rest of the surface is very rough, and you can almost tell at a glance that one word stands out particularly.
Who touched it?
Jian Yue's mind was slightly stiff. Just as he was about to continue thinking, a voice suddenly came from not far away: "Butler Wang! Come back soon!"
The surroundings seemed to suddenly turn white, and the dim lights were almost lit up instantly.
He turned around suddenly, and the next second he appeared out of thin air in the huge pit. He saw the figures of Gao Fei and Li Meng. The talisman paper in Li Meng's hand was shining. She looked at Jian Yue and said with relief: "It really works."
Gao Fei said: "She used the card to find the location of this person in this building. Can't this Zhang Chu move around the building? So he must know how to pull you out. We didn't expect that this person was also in the formation of this pit. She found him and used the formation to absorb the person's energy and pull him in."
The long-haired man Zhang Chu cursed: "What kind of evil magic do you use? Why do you always come to me when you have problems? It's endless, right?!"
Jian Yue ignored his cursing. He saw the piles of bones around him. He slowly came back to his senses and said, "Is the replenishment of the magic circle effective?"
Li Meng said: "Yes, it is because the magic circle has been completed that they can pull you out, but now there is a very strange thing, they still can't leave."
Gao Fei said: "Logically, this should be the case, but it's strange that the task given by the system still hasn't been completed."
They could see countless dark shadows surging in the pit with blood mist.
Can't get out.
The magic circle had long been complete and no longer imprisoned the soul, and the blood mist was surging towards it.
Li Meng said anxiously: "Come up first, otherwise it's easy to get entangled!"
Jian Yue climbed along the edge of the pit. The wall was a bit abrasive, so Jian Yue exchanged a pair of non-slip gloves from the mall and climbed up quickly. He finally climbed up when the whole pit was about to be filled with blood mist.
"Where is the exit?" Tiantian said, "What should we do now?"
Li Meng said: "We two can't leave here. If we stay here, the energy of this corner of the magic circle will not be able to be maintained."
Jian Yue said: "Then it seems that finding a way out can only be left to me?"
As soon as the words fell.
The system panel popped up: "
[Main Mission]: Trigger the main limited-time mission and find the real exit of the building.
[Mission Details]: In this dangerous building, where should you go and where is the real exit?
[Quest Reward]: Chance to drop the Heart of Truth.
[Task time limit]: Three hours"
There are only three hours left?
Jian Yue didn't expect that time would pass much faster than he imagined, but fortunately there was a system reminder, which let him know that their direction was correct and there was indeed another exit in the building.
Tiantian was a little anxious and said, "What should we do? Should we go back first and find the exit in the basement?"
Jian Yue said directly: "Impossible, the elevator in the basement is impossible to appear. If it could be possible, it would have appeared a long time ago when we were there for a day. The underground garage can only be regarded as an entrance. It is impossible to find the exit when we go back."
Tiantian said: "Then..."
Jian Yue suddenly began to look upwards along the huge pit. He said, "Do you remember what the boss said? The construction of this building relies on gathering wealth by only bringing in money but not taking it out. But now its wealth is attracted outwards, towards another building. So if you want to attract wealth out from here, you must leave a hole here, right? If you are the one who set up this plan, where would you leave this hole?"
Tiantian subconsciously said: "If it were me, it would be fastest to go from directly above..."
She froze.
Also started looking towards the top.
I don't know how many floors there are underground, but the entire ceiling is very thick. Jian Yue said, "Smash this layer of stone. There should be something behind it."
Tiantian was surprised and asked, "How did you know?"
Jian Yue said: "If it is a rock, there would not be such a thick layer of moss on it, which means there is a channel for moisture and air circulation behind it."
"But how do we open it?" Tiantian said, "We don't have any tools!"
Jian Yue frowned slightly.
But at this moment, footsteps were heard from the passage behind. It was Xiao Li and others!
Xiao Li was panting, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw everyone. He said, "I knew that you guys, who have been causing trouble for thousands of years, would not die so easily!"
Jian Yue: “…”
Thank you so much for your compliment.
A few more people came running over from behind, they were the remaining people in the basement.
Jian Yue asked: "Why are you here?"
"Because just now, the talisman paper has become completely popular, and there is no news about you and Tiantian. We really can't wait any longer." Wang Kun also showed his worry, and he said: "I just want to come and take a look."
Tiantian said: "This is too dangerous!"
Wang Kun said: "If you all die down here and leave us waiting up there, that would be more torturous than death."
Jian Yue said: "You came just in time. Wang Kun, your card is a single critical hit card. Can you use your electricity to blow up the stone on top?"
Wang Kun was stunned. If someone else had this request, he would think it was crazy, because it was really unnecessary to waste the number of cards at this time. Moreover, they didn't know the whole story, so it would be even more abrupt to smash an ordinary stone. But if this person was Jian Yue, he said without hesitation: "Let me try!"
He chanted the spell activated by the card, and the light of the card flashed and then fell down.
As the stone shattered and fell, everyone could see clearly that there was indeed a passage and stairs behind the stone!
"How do we get through?" Wang Kun said, "We can't get through?"
At this time, someone came out. It was Xiao Li. He said, "After my card is upgraded, my electricity can be transformed into various shapes. I can create a staircase for you to go up."
Jian Yue immediately said: "You try it."
Xiao Li's lightning illuminated the entire giant pit, crackling, and the surrounding walls seemed to be flashing, but people didn't feel very painful when they stepped on them. Jian Yue walked to the stairs and said, "This staircase should lead to the roof."
"But this is not straight." Tiantian stood beside him and studied it for a while, holding a flashlight and said, "Look, there is light reflection at the top, which means there is a blockage there."
Zhang Chu smiled and said not far away: "Don't bother, it's useless. Even if you find the passage and stairs, what can you do? It's blocked in here, so I can tell you very bluntly that you can't do it. This magic circle will strangle all people and things that are alive after fifteen days, unless there is only one way to survive."
As expected, everyone looked up at him when they heard this.
He smiled and said, "When there is only one living person left in this building, in order to prevent this activity from ever running out of people, the owner behind this building will leave one living person behind and give him the final bonus as a reward."
After the words were spoken, everyone fell silent.
The last living person.
In the last three hours, all the contestants were told such things, which was undoubtedly intended to make everyone kill each other.
Jian Yue looked at him and said, "So, you are the last living person in the last instance?"
Zhang Chu's smile faded and he said, "What else can I do? Tell me, what else can I do? Is there any other way to play this dungeon? How else can I get out?"
Li Meng stood at the edge of the magic circle not far away and said, "If we can find a way to get to the top floor, Brother Gao and I can find a way to demolish the last soul-locking building."
After listening to this, Jian Yue did not hesitate at all. He said to Tian Tian, "If I ask you to teleport to the rooftop directly, can you do it?"
Tiantian thought for a moment and said, "Okay, but I don't have enough time to refresh the card."
Jian Yue said: "How long will it take?"
Tiantian said: "There are still three hours."
The three hours were exactly up, and even if they were teleported over, they would not have enough time to find the real way to open the exit.
The yellow-haired man not far away yelled, "What should we do now? We can only wait to die!"
Jian Yue glanced at him and said, "Actually, I have always forgotten to ask you, what exactly is your card skill? I have never seen you use it before."
Huang Mao choked for a moment and then said: "My card skills? My card skills are..."
Everyone looked at him.
Huangmao seemed a little embarrassed and said, "It's that sound. My card can make my voice travel very far. If it's high, the whole building may be able to hear it."
Everyone was choked up; they didn't expect there was a card with this kind of ability.
Huang Mao said excitedly: "What's wrong with my card skills? I know they are useless, but you don't have to look at me like that, right?!"
Jian Yue said: "Who said it's useless? I really need your card skills right now."
Huang Mao looked at him in surprise and asked, "Ah, what do you mean?"
"Now use your card to transmit the sound to this floor." Jian Yue looked at the task panel and said, "The staircase to the tiankeng has appeared. Spread this news to each floor. Tell them that the staircase to the tiankeng can reach the top floor, but they need to climb the stairs. Ask them to remove the iron plates that block the stairs on each floor."
Huang Mao said: "How is it possible that there are people on every floor? It's not certain that we can find them, right?"
"Yes." Jian Yue turned to Ji Xingle who was not far away and said, "Do you remember the content of the phone call we heard on that floor of the hotel? If we can't find the exit, on the last day, the passages on all floors will be opened. In other words, the elevators above the first floor are interconnected. This means that if someone hears it and is willing to open the stairs, even if they open them one floor at a time, then within the next three hours, if we are fast enough, we have hope."
Ji Xingle finally remembered, and he said, "Yes, yes! That phone call! I remember it now, it seems like he did say that!"
Zhang Chu, who was not far away, was stunned. He said, "Impossible, how could anyone be willing to believe what you said?"
Jian Yue said, "You said it yourself, didn't you? How could anyone be willing to believe you? You said that the only way to survive in this copy is to kill all your companions. Why should we believe you? And why did you trust the boss behind this so much? Maybe if you had trusted each other a little more in this copy, you could have gotten out alive."
Zhang Chu was stunned.
The yellow-haired man not far away took a deep breath and used the card without hesitation. He took a deep breath and shouted, "Everyone in this building, pay attention. We have found the stairs leading to the top floor. When you get to the top floor, you need to find a device building. That is the soul-locking device. After you find it, you need to help us mark the location. We will destroy the device within the last three hours!"
After he finished speaking, he still felt that it was not over.
He repeated it loudly many times, and finally his voice was like crying: "Please, please trust us quickly, we don't have much time left!"
As he spoke, he looked at Xiao Yuan who was not far away and cried bitterly, "Well, maybe I will die now. You are relieved. I have been bullying you for so many years. Are you finally relieved?"
Xiao Yuan stood by and looked at Huang Mao. The taciturn boy seemed a little frightened, but finally said softly: "I know you are not a bad person. My father often beats me, and other children always bully me. Although you scold me, you always protect me. I don't hate you."
Huang Mao cried even harder: "That's enough, you don't have to say these things. Now there is no need to talk about whether to protect or not. We are gang members who value loyalty. Now if we have to die, we will die together!"
They were talking.
There was a sound coming from the stairs not far away.
Tiantian was a little surprised and said, "It seems that the staircase seal on one floor has been removed."
There were indeed taskers on other floors who heard the news. They followed the approximate direction of the sound source, found the stairs, and began to dismantle the stairs on each floor.
Jian Yue looked at it for a while and said to Ji Xingle, "Do you think the location of this staircase looks particularly familiar if you extrapolate it to the location of the floor?"
Ji Xingle thought about it, then said with eyes wide open: "Then, then that couldn't be... that floor of the hotel at that time... the passage door that was blocked by something and couldn't be pushed open at all!"
He couldn't believe it!
It turns out that they had been so close to the stairs to leave since the first day!
But they had no idea at the time!
Jian Yue said: "At least we have done it now. We have tried all our methods and have done our best. If they can find the location of the device on the top floor and Tiantian can successfully teleport Li Meng there, we may be able to leave the Five Star Building. If not..."
Tiantian's eyes turned red, and she suddenly smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, actually. If I can be in the same instance with my best friends in the end, wouldn't that be pretty fun, right Mengmeng?"
Li Meng also smiled, she looked at Jian Yue and said: "It's a pity that I didn't help you get the props of the True Heart."
Jian Yue said: "In fact, after entering this instance, I have found answers to many questions. Even without the item of the Heart of Truth, I have roughly understood what the answer I want is. And I have indeed verified one thing, that he will not appear again."
When speaking, Jian Yue's expression was very calm, but there was a kind of pain beneath the calmness.
He stood at the edge of a pit of bones, with a huge tomb under his feet. He stood in this dangerous place, but there was not much fear on his face.
"But I still want to see him." Jian Yue smiled and said, "He always comes to see me, so it's time for me to go find him."
Li Meng said, "Do you know where to find him?"
Jian Yue pushed his glasses and said, "I don't know yet, but if I'm alive, I won't give up. If I die..."
Everyone looked at him.
Jian Yue smiled and said, "Maybe we can be reunited at this time."
Zhang Chu, who was tied up not far away, looked at Jian Yue and felt a little dazed. At that moment, he felt that the person in front of him seemed to have not changed since many years ago.
That time when I saw him in the hospital.
There was also someone next to him. At that time, Jian Yue's temper was actually invisible to the eyes, but he was very brave and was not afraid of anything. The man next to him always protected him.
Zhang Chu once asked him, "Why are you so brave and not afraid of anything? Aren't you afraid of dying?"
"I'm not afraid." Jian Yue said at that time: "If I were braver, he would be less injured, but sometimes I'm not afraid of getting hurt, I'm just afraid of death. I'm afraid that I won't be able to see him after I die. I still want to see him."
After so many years, even if I have lost my memory, I have forgotten so much.
But what he said has not changed at all.
Everyone fell into a silent wait, time passed bit by bit, and the last two and a half hours was the most depressing and tense. No one knew whether the people upstairs had found the top floor, nor did they know what was waiting for them in the end.
Just when three hours had passed.
When Tiantian's card lit up, Tiantian said to Li Meng, "Let's go?"
Li Meng nodded.
Tiantian's card can teleport three people. She said, "Who else wants to go to the top floor?"
Gao Fei said: "I will go with you. If we succeed, we will get out. If we fail, we will be buried in this building."
Everyone smiled.
The closer it gets to the final moment, the calmer I feel.
They teleported away, and the copy entered a countdown. Dark shadows surged in the huge pit. According to the curse of the copy and the magic circle, if the lock of the magic circle was not released at this time, these dark shadows would emerge in person to slaughter everyone in the building.
As the shadows in the magic circle boiled, everyone's heart was lifted.
Life and death seem to be just a matter of a moment.
As everyone held their breath, something that came faster than the black shadow came from the top of the tower. The light slid down the stairs and illuminated the entire huge stone pit.
All the shadows walked forward along the stairs.
Tiantian said excitedly: "It's unlocked, the exit, they unlocked it!"
Almost at the moment the entrance to the passage opened, Jian Yue and others could feel a burst of golden warmth covering them, and when the magic circle of the building was unlocked, everyone climbed up along the first floor, and they could hear a huge explosion in another building not far away. The situation had been broken, and the other building could no longer continue to absorb the energy of this building. The plan of the person behind the scenes had completely failed, and he would suffer a more severe backlash.
Tiantian said with some emotion: "It's a pity that I didn't see what happened to that person in the end."
Jian Yue said: "These wronged souls have already left here, and they can go wherever they want. We don't need to worry about them."
Tiantian smiled and said, "That's true."
They came out from inside and climbed up. When they reached the top floor, everyone fainted from exhaustion, as if they had entered a dream. When they opened their eyes again, they had returned to the dream hall.
Jian Yue heard the voice of the system: "Congratulations to the tasker for completing the copy [Five-Star Building] task. Your reward is being settled. Congratulations on obtaining the item True Heart. You can input any question to the item, and the item can give you the most authentic answer. Please choose whether to use it!"
A prop appeared in front of Jian Yue.
Jian Yue looked at the blue glass heart spinning in the air in the prop column. He clicked it and typed his question in the question column: "I want to know where the person who had a bond with the plum blossom mole mark on my shoulder is now, and how can I find him."
