Chapter 100 Yu X Xu
The journey was safe and sound.
With a slight sound of the safety buckle falling, the roller coaster started successfully.
Amidst the rumbling roar of machinery, the only two passengers on board traversed the pitch-black night. Speed increased, and the black, poisonous mist was left behind, gradually receding into the distance.
By the time the roller coaster came to a stop at the end, they were already within the safe zone. The blood-red countdown in the sky was about to reach zero, and it seemed that they would successfully pass this round of the test.
Xu Weiyi breathed a sigh of relief and brushed his long hair that was messed up by the wind with his hand.
"You're not going to thank me at all."
Xu Weiyi turned around when he heard that.
Yu Qian sat next to her, still holding the two branches that served as crutches.
The light from the street lamp above her head just illuminated most of her face. There was dissatisfaction in her narrow eyes, and it seemed that there was also a little bit of teasing.
As if blaming her for being ungrateful.
Xu Weiyi's mood became more and more complicated.
She had to admit that if Yu Qian had not tried her best to help her in the second round of tests, she would have died in the strange poisonous fog.
Facing someone with whom she had so many love-hate entanglements and who had saved her life, it was really hard for her not to feel emotional.
Xu Weiyi suppressed the myriad thoughts in his mind and said dryly, "Thank you."
She reached out to take the crutch from Yu Qian's hand, showing with practical actions that she wanted to be self-reliant.
Before she touched the crutch, she glanced at Yu Qian's left arm, then paused, "What's wrong with your arm?"
Yu Qian replied calmly: "It was hooked by a claw."
Just now, while rushing along, she accidentally tripped and slowed down for a moment. So for a dozen seconds, she and Xu Weiyi were very close to the poisonous fog.
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a hand reaching out from the black mist towards the person on her back, and she instinctively turned her body to the side. As a result, Xu Weiyi was fine, but she was caught.
At that time, she took a look. The wound was not deep and was not very clear in the night. She could only vaguely see a shallow bloodstain.
It was a little painful, but it was bearable and didn't stop her from continuing on her journey.
The reason why she didn't mention it to Xu Weiyi was because she felt that she couldn't hear anything good from Xu Weiyi, and there was no need to make things difficult for herself.
However, just when Yu Qian thought that the matter would be glossed over, the girl next to her frowned.
Xu Weiyi stared at her wound and whispered, "Something doesn't seem right."
For a moment, Yu Qian actually saw a hint of concern on Xu Weiyi's face, which froze her for two seconds. It wasn't until Xu Weiyi extended her hand that she looked in the direction she pointed.
The shallow bloodstains just now have turned dark red. What is even more worrying is that black mist is swirling around the wound, and it is impossible to tell whether it is coming from the inside out or from the outside in.
All in all, it looks pretty creepy.
Yu Qian said: "It's okay, it doesn't hurt much."
I don’t know whether he was comforting Xu Weiyi or comforting himself.
"Who asked you?" Xu Weiyi took the crutch from her and returned to normal. "You looked weird. I was afraid you might infect me."
Yu Qian found that she seemed to have become accustomed to her language pattern and didn't even feel angry.
She glanced at the girl next to her and asked, "Then let's go separately?"
"Don't." Xu Weiyi immediately stopped her, paused for a moment, and slowly uttered a few words, "Help me down first."
The expected answer made Yu Qian curl her lips.
Xu Weiyi is not able to move around easily now, so he still has to rely on her to get out of the roller coaster.
Yu Qian didn't argue with her and helped the person out of the car.
After getting along with her for so long, she gradually realized where the problem lies. Xu Weiyi's various behaviors may not be because he hates her, but more like an angry child making a fuss.
Including the repeated mention of Cheng Hua, and all the previous disobedience and resistance to himself, all came from his inner unhappiness.
Is it because she wasn't nice enough to Xu Weiyi before and didn't pay enough attention to him that he still cares about it?
Yu Qian didn’t quite understand.
But strangely, after realizing this, she didn't reject Xu Weiyi's behavior. In fact, she felt indebted and wanted to compensate him as if by reflex.
This kind of self-reflection rarely occurred in her past life, so she felt very uncomfortable.
As the countdown in the air reached zero, the poisonous fog that was raging in the amusement park quietly dissipated.
The night sky became clear again, with a bright moon and sparse stars.
When Dina appeared again, a satisfied smile finally appeared on her face.
"Congratulations to both of you for passing the second round of tests. Your love is truly enviable."
Dina's tone was still sweet. As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Weiyi's left leg returned to normal and he regained the ability to move.
Xu Weiyi moved around a few times to make sure there was nothing wrong with his body, then went to look at Yu Qian's arm.
The wound remained unchanged, and her heart sank.
"Ah, you're injured." Dina's eyes swept across the wound on Yu Qian's left arm, and the smile in her eyes deepened. "It's not good to get injured here. You should be careful."
Yu Qian didn't bother to pay attention to the gloating expression on her face, "So what is the third round of test?"
"It's simple enough. The test is to get the key to the amusement park gate and leave. This is also the final round of the test. If you can complete it successfully, you will receive a very substantial reward."
Although Dina downplayed it, Yu Qian still smelled danger.
She asked, "Where is the key to the gate?"
Dina laughed, "In the haunted house."
Seeing the two people's expressions collapse in an instant, she added fuel to the fire maliciously, "There are not only keys in there, but also many things beyond the scope of human common sense. I wish you all the best."
This time, the two of them still received simple food and water, and had an hour of rest.
When Yu Qian had eaten half of the bread, the person next to her suddenly asked, "Did you see the haunted house on the road just now?"
She took a sip of water and said, "I see."
Unlike ordinary amusement park layouts, the haunted house here is almost located in the center, and its appearance is a huge and eerie castle, making it hard not to notice it.
Xu Weiyi sighed, "It should be difficult."
She and Yu Qian originally wanted to go there to investigate in advance, but they quickly gave up the idea.
From Dina's various behaviors, it was clear that she didn't want them to pass the test smoothly. So since Dina dared to reveal the content of the test, it meant that the difficulty of this level must be very high, so high that even if they knew it in advance, it would not change anything.
Moreover, they have already consumed too much physical energy in the first two rounds of tests. If they don’t rest for a while, the third round of tests will probably become even more dangerous.
She had just studied the broken wedding ring again, but still found nothing. How exactly was the so-called life-saving tool supposed to be used?
As Xu Weiyi thought about it, his mood became heavier.
Yu Qian didn't seem very worried, at least not on the surface.
She just said, "Don't think too much, eat more and save your energy."
So Xu Weiyi stopped talking and started eating quietly.
The light from the street lamp illuminated the bench where the two were sitting, with a warm yellow hue, harmonious and cozy.
If this picture is edited out alone, it looks like a couple on a date.
Xu Weiyi suddenly felt a little emotional.
In the past, Yu Qian’s schedule was always very full. If it were presented in a table, she would only occupy a small column in the table, and might even be ruthlessly covered by other unexpected events.
This is the first time that the two of us have been alone for such a long time.
Perhaps she should be grateful for this experience, which made her Yu Qian's only one.
Although, it's only temporary.
People's hearts are always fickle, especially when it comes to love. So after sighing, Xu Weiyi immediately began to hate his own useless thoughts.
It’s already this late, why bother thinking about these vague things? Let’s first think about the third round of tests that are right around the corner.
At this moment, she heard a low gasp from beside her.
Xu Weiyi came back to his senses and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Yu Qian's face didn't look very good, but the next second after she looked over, she returned to her indifferent look.
She pointed to her arm and said, "It's a bit serious."
Xu Weiyi hurried to look, and then his eyes fixed.
The dark red wound showed no signs of healing and had completely turned black, like a twisted, ominous curse mark, stretching across the snow-white skin.
Although the second round of the test has ended, the black mist around the wound not only did not dissipate, but became even thicker.
Xu Weiyi finally lost his patience and asked, "Will it hurt?"
"Not bad." Yu Qian seemed to be in good condition and was in the mood to argue with her. "Why, now you finally remember to care about me?"
Xu Weiyi's eyes moved, avoiding her question, "I just suddenly thought of something."
Yu Qian: “What?”
"Do you remember our wedding vows?" Xu Weiyi replied, repeating them to himself. "For richer or poorer, in sickness or health, we will love each other and never leave each other until death do us part."
She said solemnly, "Now we've experienced 'poverty and wealth', 'health and sickness'. We helped each other during the first two rounds of trials, and that barely qualifies as loving each other and never leaving each other..."
At this point, Yu Qian already understood her meaning completely. "So, only the last sentence remains to be fulfilled."
"Yu Qian." Xu Weiyi turned his head and looked into her eyes, with a rare serious attitude. "Will one of us die?"
When she thought of this just now, a chill suddenly crept up her spine, making her whole body numb and her limbs stiff.
Xu Weiyi could not accept such an outcome in any way and felt uncontrollably uneasy and frightened.
She was terrified of death. She was also afraid of Yu Qian's death, because...
"Don't be too nervous." Yu Qian interrupted her thoughts, "Even if that's the case, it doesn't matter."
Xu Weiyi was stunned for a moment, "It's okay?"
Yu Qian smiled faintly, "Because I'm already dead."
