Looking at the drooping white hair and the old face in the mirror, the words in Qin Nuo's throat seemed to be strangled by black, and he was silent for a long time.
He gently put Dingxiang down and she leaned against the wall, with a faint smile still on the corners of her cracked mouth.
Qin Nuo turned his head and looked at the corridor in front of him. At the end of the corridor was a familiar fork.
It is hope and disappointment.
In fact, the destiny was determined from the beginning. Once they entered that place, they forgot about time. Although they repeatedly tore off the calendar on the wall, that was only relative to the time in the cage.
Order imprisons time and freezes everyone's appearance.
Ding Xiang longed to break free from the cage, but she had no idea that after she did, time would pass by like quicksand...
Qin Nuo looked at Dingxiang's smile and sighed slightly.
But he thought this was the best outcome. At least Dingxiang left with hope and beautiful fantasies. For a girl who had been imprisoned for who knows how many days and years, this was the best ending.
Reality has completely vanished...
But in Dingxiang's world, she has actually been reunited with her family and gained true liberation and freedom.
He believed that Dingxiang heard his words at the last moment. She was sleepy and just rested a little on his shoulder...
Qin Nuo reached out to wipe away the tears from the corner of Dingxiang's eyes.
Xiao Mi jumped out from her back, lay on Dingxiang's shoulder, and licked it gently with her tongue.
It turned its head to look at Qin Nuo and barked twice.
Qin Nuo saw the meaning in its eyes: "Xiao Mi, take her away."
Qin Nuo stood up, Xiao Mi jumped on the ground, and his body was quickly covered with black matter, turning into a humanoid monster.
It looked at Qin Nuo, then stretched out its hand and placed an object in Qin Nuo's palm.
Qin Nuo took it and it was a hairpin, Ding Xiang's item.
Xiao Mi didn't say anything. She turned around and picked up Ding Xiang's frail body. Then she walked towards a dim corridor at the fork in the road and finally disappeared into the darkness...
Qin Nuo held the hairpin, and before he could put it away, the game announcement sounded in his mind.
"Congratulations to the player for obtaining the game's NPC item—the thought object that travels between the Yin and Yang worlds, randomly unlocking a certain skill of the player." (Subject only to the order rules of the sixth carriage)
"Congratulations to the player for killing the evil NPC and earning 1 point. If you accumulate 2 or more points, you will receive a Black Gold Card for clearing the level!"
The sound disappeared, and Qin Nuo realized that something had been unsealed.
But this thing doesn't seem to be very useful...
"After all, I managed to accurately identify nine evil NPCs, but I only got one point. Isn't that a bit unfair?"
Qin Nuo murmured and couldn't help shaking his head.
After Xiao Mi took Dingxiang away, Qin Nuo didn't stay for long. He got up and walked towards the fork at the end.
At the fork, Qin Nuo looked at both sides and randomly chose the right side.
Walking in the maze, the torches on both sides flickered even though there was no wind, which further highlighted the eerie and gloomy atmosphere.
"The difficulty of the carriages increases as you get further along. This one really tests the player's experience. I wonder what Lan Yan and the others are up to."
If one acts alone, it all depends on personal ability. Although it is impolite to think so, Qin Nuo believes that the most likely thing not to be seen in the next carriage should be blue smoke.
But as a friend who could barely be considered one, Qin Nuo still wished him good luck.
"Hopefully the next point will be easier to take. This head is really hurting anymore."
Qin Nuo muttered as he walked.
After turning a few corners, Qin Nuo looked ahead and stopped again.
The road ahead was pitch black again, but this time Qin Nuo learned his lesson. He took a torch from the side and moved forward cautiously.
After walking forward about ten steps, Qin Nuo clearly felt that the air around him was flowing faster and the temperature was dropping sharply.
This is going to cause trouble.
Either it's those maze monsters, or it's entering the territory of a realm.
Qin Nuo involuntarily tightened the torch in his hand, and with his other hand he took out the blood-red dagger from his waist.
Soon, Qin Nuo heard some sounds in the darkness ahead. The light of the torch was very limited and could only illuminate a small area.
When my nerves were tense, I clearly saw a shadow illuminated by the fire at the corner.
The other party seemed to be very cautious as well. After noticing Qin Nuo's presence, he planned to launch a surprise attack, but Qin Nuo took the initiative.
Before the figure could make a move, Qin Nuo's right hand quickly and roughly grabbed the throat, and the bloody dagger in his hand quickly stabbed out.
"What the hell! Wait!"
Qin Nuo heard the voice clearly and stopped what he was doing in time.
The person in front of me is Lan Yan.
The tip of the dagger was just inches from his eyeball.
As soon as I finished talking about him, he appeared. What a coincidence!
Qin Nuo put away the dagger and said, "What a coincidence! I saw a sneaky shadow and thought it was another monster in the maze."
"If you had shouted even a fraction slower, my knife would have pierced your eyeball."
Lan Yan leaned against the wall, breathed a sigh of relief, and said unhappily, "You were sneaking around too, I thought I saw a ghost!"
Qin Nuo looked at Lan Yan. His clothes were not wrinkled or stained at all. He asked, "So, do you have any points now?"
Lan Yan paused, scratched his head, and laughed, "No, after I came in, I've been wandering around in this damn maze. Not only did I not get any points, but I also encountered a group of desperate monsters and almost got eaten alive!"
