Chapter 94: Thousand Faces of All Living Things (2)
"Dignity?" Gu Qiufeng said lazily, "How come I don't know that you need something like decency."
The magician took off his mask, revealing a face that Gu Qiufeng was extremely familiar with.
Xie Xin is indeed good-looking and can hold his own on the big screen. Even now, wearing a strange black magician's suit in this circus, he looks more like a nobleman in a suit about to attend a banquet.
The pair of peach blossom eyes moved, and Xie Xin said: "I was wrong."
Gu Qiufeng pinched his brows and said, "You always say this to me, but you don't think you are wrong at all."
He wanted to say more, but now the performance on stage was imminent. Compared with Xie Xin, it was obviously more important to win over Lu Jinghong as soon as possible, so Gu Qiufeng said: "I know you have played this kind of role before, don't ruin my business, come with me to perform."
Xie Xin agreed gently.
When facing others, he always acts superior, as if he is out of touch with the world. He won't even look at others, and is arrogant and indifferent.
But when communicating with Gu Qiufeng, he restrained all his outward sharpness, just like a big cat with smooth fur and a mild temper.
If Xie Xin's so-called "friends" saw this, they would probably be shocked.
When the two of them walked onto the stage, Gu Qiufeng put on a pair of green contact lenses to cover up the abnormality in his eyes.
The lights dimly shine on the stage, making it easier for the audience below to watch.
But this is actually very unfriendly to the performers on the stage, and the lighting is quite dazzling to Gu Qiufeng.
Xie Xin had long since adapted to the conditions of performing under various spotlights, so he didn't feel anything. He even quietly supported Gu Qiufeng from behind when he was suddenly irritated by the light.
Gu Qiufeng blinked his eyes to get rid of the dizziness caused by the lights, then looked towards the audience.
Lu Jinghong was looking at him and Xie Xin intently, probably afraid that they would suddenly attack.
The moment Gu Qiufeng looked at her, Lu Jinghong's gaze suddenly fell on Gu Qiufeng.
Oh no, I got caught.
Gu Qiufeng didn't feel guilty at all. While looking at Lu Jinghong, he made a heart shape with his hands.
Shao Qiu Shui, who was sitting next to Lu Jinghong, twitched his mouth when he saw this.
Lu Jinghong didn't know Gu Qiufeng, but she knew him very well. She immediately recognized that the "staff member" who was about to perform the magic trick was Mr. Gu in disguise.
Mr. Gu really is a person who likes to attract people.
It’s just that the magician next to Gu Qiufeng seemed a little unfamiliar, but because of his good figure, even with his face covered, he could be seen as a very handsome man. Out of his instinct to pursue beautiful things, Shao Qiu Shui couldn’t help but take a few more glances.
Perhaps because he noticed her gaze, the magician glanced at her coldly.
The moment her eyes met with the magician's, an unpleasant memory emerged from Shao Qiu Shui's mind. The fear of death deep in her soul surged into Shao Qiu Shui's chest like a tide in the shadows under those peach blossom eyes, making her pale.
Shao Qiu Shui had seen this man before!
Shao Qiu Shui still remembers the moment when she was rescued from the copy by Mr. Gu. The two met a man in a baseball cap. Although the man tried to cover himself up, it was this eye contact that made Shao Qiu Shui lose consciousness all of a sudden and was put into the card. Later, Mr. Gu asked a prop repairman to get her out, otherwise Shao Qiu Shui would have been forever sleeping in the nightmare of a broken soul.
Therefore, Shao Qiu Shui will never forget the pair of peach blossom eyes that brought her death nightmares.
How could Mr. Gu be with such a dangerous being?
How did that man get into the game and find them?
wrong.
Shao Qiu Shui thought in panic, that man is so powerful, does Mr. Gu know that he is around?
Will Mr. Gu be in any danger?
Lu Jinghong noticed Shao Qiushui's slight tremor and asked, "What's wrong?"
Shao Qiu Shui bit his lower lip tightly.
These were all arranged by Mr. Gu with great difficulty. She couldn't disrupt Gu Qiufeng's plan because of a momentary gaffe!
Shao Qiu Shui chose to believe Gu Qiufeng.
Even if there is a sudden change, Mr. Gu will definitely be able to deal with it calmly.
Although she was very scared of the "magician", Shao Qiushui still tried her best to suppress all the abnormalities and said to Lu Jinghong with a pale face: "Sister, do you think this magic will be more dangerous than the last one?"
It turns out I'm still afraid.
Lu Jinghong looked meaningfully at the little girl in front of him who looked a little strange.
She has seen too many newcomers like this. Fear and terror are the normal reactions of almost all ordinary people who have just entered the game. Shao Qiu Shui is already one of the more outstanding players among these players. At least she did not lose control of her emotions, nor did she become decadent and exile herself. Instead, she responded positively and could even analyze the situation afterwards.
Although Shao Qiushui's face was as pale as gold paper and she was already extremely scared, Lu Jinghong did not give her any hope and said calmly: "The subsequent programs will only be more dangerous one after another, because the purpose of this game is to torture humans and let them die in fear and pain."
Shao Qiushui's worries about Gu Qiufeng were reduced after hearing this. She opened her mouth and couldn't help asking, "Is there any way to deal with it?"
Lu Jinghong gave her an approving smile.
She said slowly, "Face death, face fear. The game can kill us directly, but it sets up so many terrifying levels that attack and defend human psychological weaknesses. The purpose is to torture the human soul. If the game wants us to be afraid, then the best way to deal with the mastermind behind the scenes is to not be afraid of anything tangible and face everything intangible."◎
Shao Qiu Shui widened his eyes.
She was speechless for a moment.
Lu Jinghong's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting her hard and making Shao Qiu Shui suddenly enlightened.
She couldn't help but think of what happened at Yucheng University.
At that time, without Mr. Gu, no one could come to save her. However, Shao Qiushui survived the massacre of ghosts and monsters with her mortal body.
She was afraid of fire, afraid of corpses, and afraid of herself being burned into a mummy.
But because of Mr. Gu's life, even though Shao Qiu Shui was scared to death, he still tried his best to survive.
Is facing fear the best way to fight against fatal collapse?
Lu Jinghong patted Shao Qiushui's hand. Seeing that she was still thinking, he did not disturb her, but said softly: "Besides, you still have me. No matter what happens, I will protect you."
*
Gu Qiufeng, who was getting into the box on the stage, also heard Lu Jinghong's powerful words.
He was stunned for a moment, and only came to his senses when Xie Xin patted his hand which was still leaning on the counter.
As the saying goes, the speaker may not mean anything, but the listener may take it seriously. Lu Jinghong's words were obviously meant to dispel Shao Qiushui's fear of ghosts and death.
But Gu Qiufeng felt that Lu Jinghong had revealed some truth behind this game.
Why is this game set up in such a horrific way that attacks and defends human psychological weaknesses?
If X can really influence both worlds, killing some humans who are like ants shouldn't be a difficult task, right?
Setting up the game is completely unnecessary.
A voice slowly emerged in Gu Qiufeng's heart.
Maybe, X is not a god, and it may not be that powerful.
"Go in quickly, what are you standing there for?" Xie Xin said attentively, "There is a switch inside. When you turn it, a downward hole will appear under the box. Just crawl down and go back to the backstage."
Gu Qiufeng said helplessly: "Xie Xin, do you still think I'm a child?"
Xie Xin said slowly: "Don't run around this time."
Although there were still many suspicions and mysteries between them that had not been resolved, Gu Qiufeng couldn't help but smile slightly because of these words.
He said, "I won't run around this time."
It was as if they were finally letting go of some obsession. As soon as these words came to light, the two of them seemed to have made an extremely important promise invisibly.
Xie Xin breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Qiufeng couldn't help but ask, "Why are you so guilty? Are you really afraid that I will hate you? Could it be that Xie Xin, who is fearless, would be afraid?"
Xie Xin immediately changed his expression, turning it into an expressionless dead fish face, and directly closed the cabinet door, blocking Gu Qiufeng's smiling face that was eager to watch the fun.
Then he turned around and began to perform his warm-up tricks in an orderly manner.
He played the leading role of a magician in a movie. Gu Qiufeng might not remember it clearly. It was the first movie notice he took for Xie Xin. To celebrate, Gu Qiufeng took Xie Xin to a street stall and got drunk.
As far as Zhuo Liao Qiufeng is concerned, after Xie Xinhong dies, they will no longer have the chance to experience this casual and free roadside barbecue.
The man opened a can of beer easily with his fingertips. His peach blossom eyes seemed to be stained with a bit of worldly air under the bright lights of the food stall. He looked at the drunk and delirious young man in front of him. The young man had just been discharged from the hospital and was still wrapped in bandages. The doctor's advice clearly stated that he should not drink alcohol, but he still ignored the advice and ordered a bunch of beers.
Then, he fell drunk in one gulp.
Xie Xin drank all the remaining wine.
"Are you so sure that I will become famous?" Xie Xin asked Gu Qiufeng.
Gu Qiufeng said in a daze: "You are good-looking, and this face alone deserves to be famous! And I have already consulted a friend in the circle, who is the capable agent who brought out the actor Shen. I am definitely more awesome than him, and you are being chased and fed by God..."
Gu Qiufeng majored in science and engineering in college. God knows why, after he was hospitalized and dropped out of school, he suddenly wanted to become Xie Xin's agent and help him debut.
Anyway, no matter what, Xie Xin will always be there to back him up.
He listened to Gu Qiufeng's nonsense, lowered his eyes, took another sip of human beer, and murmured, "It would be great if this is really the case."
If Gu Qiufeng had not accidentally gotten on that ghost bus, perhaps none of this would have happened.
They will live like normal people until they grow old together.
Xie Xin spun the magic cards, erasing the existence of those cards as the audience gasped in amazement.
If possible, he just wants to be a human being.
