Chapter 292 Going to "Light 2032.5.22"
There were two more people in the tree house, and it became a little crowded again.
While You Xi took Tang Yatong and You Zhenzhen to the bathroom to wash and change clothes, Xing Min and Lin Wu sat on the terrace outside the glass of the tree house kitchen, looking at the dark space outside the light golden shield, drinking the coconut drink that You Xi brought to them and chatting from time to time.
It is always easy for people to develop revolutionary friendships when they encounter some dangerous situations because of their tacit cooperation with each other.
This is true for Lin Wu, Tang Yatong, and You Zhenzhen. Although they all met Xing Min for the first time, they were protected by each other's shields in the first meeting, which made it easy for them to have a good impression of him.
This kind of affection is not the emotion between a man and a woman, but the recognition and friendship that arises after becoming teammates through Youxi.
In the bathroom, there is another scene.
"After entering the endless train, you can adjust your appearance, right?" Actually, everyone had guessed this, but You Zhenzhen was still very curious at this moment, "Did Xing Min look like this originally? He's too handsome, right? Or did he make himself so handsome on purpose?"
You Xi remembered what Xing Min said before, that he now looked 70% to 80% similar to his original appearance, but some of the ethnically specific features were gone, making him look much more ordinary. His expression became a little subtle, "He used to look better, probably because he entered the world of the endless train, so he toned it down a lot in order to look a little more ordinary."
"..." You Zhenzhen twisted her eyebrows and showed a standard embarrassed expression, "Mom, you wouldn't do that to him..." That's why she could say such things against her conscience.
You Xi: ...?
Tang Yatong pinched You Zhenzhen's face: "When a girl compliments a boy, it means she respects him. Didn't you hear your mother say that he looked for your mother for a long time after entering the endless train world? His intention and courage are commendable. Men dress up to please themselves. It's rare that they enter a world where they can adjust their appearance, so it's understandable that they make themselves more handsome. Please understand and don't expose others."
You Xi looked at Tang Yatong:...Huh?
You Zhenzhen nodded in understanding: "Oh~ So my mother said this to express her understanding of everything he did, and at the same time to maintain his dignity in front of us."
Tang Yatong smiled: "Yes, it's good that you understand. Don't expose it when you go out later. He seems to be a man of few words, and he probably isn't as thick-skinned as Xiyuan. We can't use the same approach on him as we did on Xiyuan." "
But in comparison, I definitely stand on Xingmin. Forget about a childish guy like Xiyuan. He's not a good match for my mother!"
You Xi looked at You Zhenzhen again:...What?
Tang Yatong did not comment on the idea of taking sides. She was always more inclined towards Lin Wu in her heart, but she still had to give some advice: "Don't worry, your mother is still young, and girls should try more and see more of the world. As long as the boys have no objection, it's okay for a few of them to go out together occasionally..."
You Zhenzhen nodded vigorously: "I agree with this!"
You Xi:...
**
Tang Yatong's arrival means the chef is here.
When she and You Zhenzhen were in the previous time layer, the situation was fine during the day and they could go out freely, but because the aboriginal students and teachers were afraid of the occasional strange incidents at night, they hid indoors in panic during the day, causing the entire college to be lifeless, and restaurants and small supermarkets were temporarily closed.
Their daily diet consists mainly of simple sandwiches, hamburgers and other dry food outdoors. As for indoors, the school building conditions are limited. Even if Tang Yatong is willing to take action, there is no place to show her skills.
What's more, there are always many tourists lurking around, who like to make sneak attacks from time to time.
After nightfall, some indescribable things occasionally appear outside the room where they are, such as the black shadows with strange shapes that are not human at first glance reflected outside the window, and the laughter, crying and scratching of the door that appear in the corridor outside the door for no reason...
Of course, those things can't get into the room with intact doors and windows. As long as they don't go out, the other party can't get in. The difficulty of the situation is incomparable to that in Youxi.
After they stepped out of the time-space vortex and saw the things in this time dimension, Tang Yatong and You Zhenzhen both felt that they had completely sublimated. Ghosts and spirits were scary, but they were obviously more afraid of Youxi...
On the inside of the kitchen counter, Tang Yatong took two medium-rare steaks out of the pan, and then cut them into strips on a flat wooden plate for easy picking. Then he turned the grinding bottle and added some black pepper and sea salt on top, and it was done.
On the other side, Youxi and You Zhenzhen prepared hot pot.
This is relatively simple. The meat and vegetables for the hot pot are all ready-made. Just take out the boxes and put them in place. For the bottom of the pot, just stir-fry the green onions and garlic mixed with the hot pot seasoning, and add the bone soup that was previously boiled in the space and boil it.
The bar was long and narrow, so it was not convenient to pick up food. Lin Wu took out two camping tables and five chairs, placed them on the only open space next to the elevator, and then placed drinks and bowls on them.
Xing Min... It was the first time Xing Min was in the same room with so many people, and he didn't know how to help, so You Xi gave him a bunch of unwashed fruits and asked him to take them to the bathroom to wash.
Four people eat spicy food, and one person doesn't eat spicy food, so the small white soup base was placed directly in front of Xing Min.
You Zhenzhen took a lot of photos before dinner, including Tang Yatong frying steak, Lin Wu setting up bowls and chopsticks, You Xi frying hot pot soup base, and several food photos, all of which were sent to the team group.
Finally, he secretly took a blurry side profile of Xing Min and sent it to Xi Yuan alone.
It was not yet dark in Xiyuan's place, and he was still busy trying to hide the station. As a result, his phone kept vibrating, and finally he received a photo of a strange man whose face he couldn't see clearly. How could he not understand You Zhenzhen's intention?
Xiyuan: Childish! If you have the guts, never come to my time dimension again.
You Zhenzhen: Haha, my mother seems to have a relationship with this man...
Xiyuan: ...
You Zhenzhen: She prepared a non-spicy hot pot base and a lot of vegetables and various fruits for him alone. The two of them often leaned against each other and whispered. Xiyuan:
...
After making Xiyuan angry, You Zhenzhen's appetite was opened up. She ate happily and joined Youxi, Tang Yatong and Lin Wu in the fight for meat.
"Wow, I just sent a few messages and both boxes of beef are gone?"
"I only ate a few slices."
"I only ate a few slices too."
"Luckily I still have a lot of stock in my space." You Xi said as he ate most of a box of beef rolls silently, and took out two boxes of marbling beef rolls from the space.
On the floor-to-ceiling glass nearby, a ghost with a bad memory crashed into it with a thud. It opened its black hole mouth, stretched out its one-meter-long tongue, and licked the glass vigorously.
The light golden shield outside the glass flashed with tiny streams of light, and the ghost suddenly seemed to be electrocuted, and fell to the ground with a thud.
Lin Wu, who had watched the whole process, looked at Xing Min who was quietly eating hot pot vegetables, and had to admit that the team's safety factor was greatly improved because of his appearance.
In Lin Wu's view, the opponent was quite mysterious. After all, he had never taken out a bound weapon since he merged with You Xi.
The opponent's defense and attack seemed to rely on this light golden light. Even You Zhenzhen's heaven-defying shield could not withstand such a non-physical attack, but he could do it easily.
And the group attack skill before, the energy that exploded at that moment seemed a little too strong.
The bound weapon that can achieve the ultimate attack and defense is somewhat against common sense, and he has never even heard of it.
Could it be that the other party did not use weapons?
Youxi said that the other party entered this world with him. Now he knows that the system that Youxi is bound to is not the system tower, so the other party is very likely from the same world as Youxi.
But he has never seen him use the props that Youxi used before...
Who is he?
**
After a relaxing and enjoyable hot pot that night, the five people in the small team once again entered the mode of spawning monsters, counting rewards, waiting for the time to reset, and spawning monsters again.
The Dark Library, which had devoured and taken the lives of countless travelers, encountered the biggest bottleneck since it was closed. Even the few travelers who were unlucky and entered this time dimension alone were able to survive and go to other time dimensions because of the existence of the Youxi team.
I don’t know if the vengeful spirits were scared by the beating, but in the next few days, many clues related to the hidden station were dropped in the rewards. They told Xiyuan all these clues one by one. In the end, he circled three possible locations for the hidden station, but he only had one chance to confirm it, and they needed to go over to help confirm it.
On this day, when the time and space vortex on the wall of the library opened again and the five people were about to leave, the vengeful spirits that always liked to riot at this time did not appear for the first time.
Of course, if you look carefully, you will find that the darkness of the ceiling and corners of this floor is full of various ghosts. They squat there quietly like chickens. Not only do they not attack, but they will also spontaneously besiege some ghosts who are not so smart and want to crawl into the time and space vortex.
For the first time, such an internal struggle scene appeared in the Dark Library:
Ghost No. 1 with a bad brain: Hehehe, where do you want to go, stay and play with me-ah!
With a distorted howl, its head hanging on its chest was pulled down by other ghosts, and seven or eight strange claws stretched out and beat it up.
Ghost No. 2 with a bad brain: Hohohoho... Hohoho-ah!
The spider-like ghost hanging upside down on the ceiling had its slender limbs pulled tightly, and then with a crackling sound, it was split into four pieces.
Youxi, the second to last person to step into the time and space vortex, turned around and happened to see this scene. She subconsciously stretched out her hands to applaud, and then waved goodbye to the ghosts in the darkness.
——She waved to me! Ah, bad luck!
——Pah! Who wants to say goodbye to you!
——Hurry up and leave! Don’t come back after you leave!
...
Time plane: Light 2032.5.22.
This place is sixteen years earlier than the time plane where Youxi is. This is the starting point of the tragedy of Guangming Academy.
According to the clues obtained before, the first student disappearance incident in Guangming Academy occurred in this year.
In this year, the Illuminati found a way to unlock the seal of the underground evil spirits. The irreversible formation was secretly drawn and began to operate.
Many people participated in this evil ritual, including students, teachers, parents, and other employees of the college.
In the following ten years, they continued to keep this huge secret and promoted the college in various ways around the world to continue recruiting students for it.
After ten years of growth, some of the students in the Illuminati founded companies, some opened art galleries, some became celebrities, some became doctors, some became police officers, some became lawyers, and some became professors who returned to the college to teach new students.
These people, scattered inside and outside the college, wove a huge net together to catch all those who fell into the trap.
They seem to have nothing to do with each other, but in fact they cover up for each other, and label the carefully calculated lives as
accidents one by one. More students, due to family background and other reasons, were able to enroll after receiving high scholarships provided by the school. These people had no social connections and status, which led to almost no one knowing that they became victims, and they disappeared quietly somewhere in the college... In
a small lounge in the library, Xiyuan, who had cleared the room in advance, leaned against the door with his arms folded, staring at the time and space vortex that appeared on the opposite wall.
The facts he learned in the past few days made him feel a little heavy in his heart. Although this is just a station in the endless train world, it may even be just a virtual world. But for the students in this college, everything is real.
They came here with great expectations to study and live, but they didn't expect that this was a road of no return. After their death, they became vengeful spirits and haunted the school, inadvertently becoming accomplices of the Illuminati, killing more innocent students... In a cycle, the overwhelming resentment and the formation merged, isolating the entire academy from the outside world, trapping all the students and faculty members in the school at that time.
Guangming Academy became a dead place where people could only enter but not leave. The people inside went from panic and chaos to despair and madness. No one knew what happened in the last few years...
On the wall, the vortex twisted, and Xiyuan immediately pulled back his thoughts.
Lin Wu came out first, followed by Tang Yatong and You Zhenzhen. Lin Wu and Tang Yatong were fine. As soon as You Zhenzhen saw him, she smiled as if she was watching a good show.
Although Xiyuan and You Zhenzhen quarreled with each other on a daily basis, he actually treated her as a sister and played tricks on her in his heart, and never really thought about getting angry with her.
It was the same now. He never thought about monopolizing Youxi.
He knew very well that he and Youxi were from two different worlds. He could not go to her world. Once all this was over, she would never come to the apocalyptic world of the system tower again.
And this time, it would also be his and her last journey.
The journey always has an end, and he and she will always say goodbye.
Now, it is just the last beautiful fireworks set off before everything ends.
But no matter when they were together or when they were separated, he wanted to leave her with only a smile.
You Xi followed You Zhenzhen and pulled herself out of the vortex of time and space. She stood up and looked up, and saw Xi Yuan standing not far away.
