Chapter 204: Scene 29 (Inverted V) [I have always existed, why...
The higher He Yuezhe went, the damper, colder and heavier the mist in the air became.
All the moisture was absorbed by the clothes, and He Yuezhe shivered from the cold while wearing them.
The palms and backs of his hands were scratched by thorns. He Yuezhe barely managed to climb out of the thorn bush, and his clothes were also scratched by the thorns, leaving several large holes.
"Hiss..." He Yuezhe stopped on the branch and peeled off the cloth from her hand. Her flesh and blood were stuck together and she couldn't help but feel the pain.
The strip of cloth with the words written on it was now stained with blood. With flesh and skin on it, He Yuezhe tied it to a thin branch and tied it with a bow.
After putting on a new piece of cloth, He Yuezhe glanced at the red strip of cloth floating in the mist and continued to climb up.
Thorns, blades, needles... He Yuezhe's body was covered with tiny wounds, which hurt so much.
"Ha, ha... When will this end?" She looked at the endless trees reaching towards the sky above her, and she couldn't help but sigh as the dense leaves blocked her view.
Many corpses were stepped on by her, making a "squeaking" sound that was harsh and unpleasant, like a pile of low-quality sponges soaked in sewage.
He Yuezhe continued to climb up. The clothes on the corpse gradually became torn, and occasionally he could see messages written in blood on the tree branches.
[There will be no end, there will be no end!! This is a scam!!]
I wouldn't lie to myself, He Yuezhe thought to himself.
Give up! Turn back now! It's not too late! This tree climbing to heaven, this temple in heaven, it's all fake. They're just tricking us into coming here and killing us!
A heavenly tree? A temple in heaven? It seemed they had climbed up, not been "placed" there to block them.
However, among all the useless messages, there was one particularly eye-catching one that attracted He Yuezhe's attention.
[Shi Lian was here. ^^]
He Yuezhe: ...
Immediately below this message, there is a long string of small words. Some parts have been blurred by water mist, but some of them can still be roughly seen.
Damn it, why on earth would a fairy world have such a tall, completely incompatible tree?! Can't fairies fly? Why do they need trees?! It can't be... If not... I'm sure... Fortunately... Ugh, I'm almost drained of blood. I'm so exhausted, so exhausted, so exhausted!!!
Oh, the world of immortals, the world view, and Shi Lian... ?
He Yuezhe suddenly felt as if he understood something.
When I came here as Shi Lian, this was a world of immortals and heroes, but when I come here now, it has become a world of martial arts.
However, this world is imagined by myself, so why would there be an earlier version of it in which I have participated?
This means that I may have faced the same desperate situation a long time ago and successfully escaped.
Probably, it’s only me.
So maybe it wasn’t accidental that I was caught by the platform this time. Maybe it was my plan, a plan to try to save my friends.
So amnesia, organization, and so on, were all my own work that was planned long ago?
——In order to escape the system's memory reading.
That’s right, in order to escape the system reading my memory exposure plan!
"You've enlightened me." He Yuezhe stroked the line of bloody words, "You've truly calculated everything..."
No, what did I just think of in that split second? Why do I suddenly forget everything?
This line of words...
"Ugh!" He Yuezhe suddenly felt a sharp pain in her head. She covered her head and struggled to support herself on the tree trunk.
It hurts so much, it hurts so much, it feels like something is drilling into my brain!
"Cough cough cough!!!" After coughing up a few mouthfuls of blood, He Yuezhe felt the pain in his brain eased a little.
[Don't stop, don ...]
[Limited time, limited time, limited time, limited time, limited time, limited time, limited time, limited time, limited time, limited time, limited time, limited time, limited time, limited time, limited time]
A long string of fluorescent characters appeared before his eyes, flashing quickly past He Yuezhe's eyeballs.
[Go!!!]
"Crack!" The trees under my feet shook.
He Yuezhe lowered his head and looked down. The fog below dissipated, and large numbers of corpses fell into the sea visibly as the branches fell.
She really couldn't wait any longer. If she waited any longer, not to mention whether she would be eaten by the sea, she might even bleed to death.
Grabbing the small tree stump, He Yuezhe climbed up again.
One, two, dozens of branches, He Yue broke them off as they extended from the trunk.
Soon, she had passed through the clouds and a bright moon hung high in the sky, with the trees stretching out towards it.
"Chila-Chila-Chila-"
The lower branches were cut off, leaving a bare trunk. He Yuezhe was afraid of heights. When there were branches before, she could at least comfort herself that if she fell, she would at most hit a branch. Now that all the branches were cut off, she didn't dare to look down at all.
Dozens, two, one, finally, He Yuezhe pushed aside the bushes and saw the top of the tree.
An ancient temple stands proudly on the treetops that are so green that they are almost fluorescent.
The huge, curved tree canopy, coupled with the azure sky and overly white clouds, He Yuezhe climbed onto the tree canopy. At first glance, it seemed as if he was standing on the prairie.
You are finally here
[Welcome, He Yuezhe]
[Come in quickly]
"Who... are you?" He Yuezhe asked puzzledly, looking at the subtitles floating in front of him.
[I am]
[you]
[I am you I am you I am you I am you I am you I am you I am you I am you I am you]
"Stop, stop, stop. That's enough. I'll go in now. Stop bothering me." He Yuezhe used both hands to cover the subtitles that were coming towards her.
[oh]
Looking at the subtitles that had obediently stood aside, He Yuezhe carefully approached the temple and used the key given to her by her "sister" to open the temple. Dust immediately filled the air.
“Cough cough cough…”
He Yuezhe shook off the dust and walked in.
This temple, both inside and out, is similar to the temples He Yuezhe had seen before, and there is nothing special about it.
[Are you looking for something?]
"No, I'm just a little curious," He Yuezhe looked around, "What's so special about this temple that made me shed so much blood and spend so much time?"
[This place is ordinary, nothing special]
“Then why build it on this tree?”
[Safety]
"Safety?"
[Well, the third temple should have told you that as long as you worship all six temples, you may be able to save the world.]
[But you should understand that this world was born because of you and will only die because of you]
[Searching for the temple is just an excuse. What the world really needs to save is you, He Yuezhe. The world needs you.]
"Need... me? She said I got the key to save the world, but I don't understand. Can I save this place with my own strength?"
[At least, this place won't be destroyed too soon]
"What does that mean?!"
[He Yuezhe, calm down, calm down]
"How can you expect me to calm down?! You're basically telling me that there's no way to save this place, and I can only watch it die bit by bit!"
[Hey, okay, I can tell you how to save this place, just calm down first]
“…”
[As I said, this temple was built here for safety, so the way to save the world is also very simple, just protect all six temples.]
“…”
[Special cases like the reconstruction of Baiyujing by Meng Qingshan can be considered well-preserved.]
"What does it mean to be well protected?" He Yuezhe's head started to hurt again.
[Protect well, that is, protect well]
“Not even a definition?”
[I don't know about this]
“…”
Won't you worship me?
"I can't see you, where are you?" He Yuezhe asked, looking at the empty temple.
The subtitle paused, then flashed: [I'm right here, beside you, never disappearing. Why can't you see me?]
"Maybe it's because I'm blind." He Yuezhe sneered.
[What should I do? If you can’t see me, how can you protect me?]
"Okay, get out from behind me quickly." He Yuezhe was a little impatient.
[ ]
[ ]
[oh]
"Squeak..." A fairy statue slowly moved out from behind He Yuezhe, out of her sight.
"Why are you hiding behind me?" He Yuezhe asked as he watched the immortal statue jump onto the altar, fold his arms around his chest, and lean against the wall.
[ ]
"Speak." He Yuezhe turned away helplessly, "Okay, I can not look at you for now."
[Thanks, I'm just a little scared]
"What are you afraid of? You know me. I won't do anything to you."
[I’m afraid of you, you lecture me, you force me]
"How could I, He Yuezhe, be such a person?" He Yuezhe was amused. "Since you have been able to stay here safe and sound for so long, of course I believe in your abilities."
[Thank you, I am really good.]
"...I'll ask you a few questions, then say goodbye and leave. Someone's waiting for me downstairs."
[Okay, ask.]
"When did you wake up?"
[I have always existed, so why would I wake up?]
“…”
"Then let me ask you this another way. When did you end up in this tree?"
[You brought me here, I don’t know exactly when]
"So, did I say anything to you before I left?"
You said, let me protect myself.
"Nothing else?"
[No, you never want to talk to me much]
"Why?"
[ ]
"Okay, is your method of saving the world by protecting the six immortal statues really feasible?"
[certainly]
"Then, where is the sixth statue?"
[ ]
I can't tell you, sorry.
"...Aren't you afraid that I'll get angry and destroy you?"
[You have destroyed me many, many times, I am not afraid, I am not afraid]
"You are different from the other immortal statues."
[We are all different, the same soul, that is something that should not exist]
“…”
[Sorry, I can only say this much. The sixth statue requires your own efforts.]
[Bye me, then please go back]
“…”
Seeing that the subtitles returned to a blank, no matter what He Yuezhe asked, she refused to answer. He Yuezhe had no choice but to kneel on the ground and worship the statue.
[He Yuezhe]
The subtitles suddenly began to appear again.
If only you could stay here forever
"You can try to keep me."
[no]
[No no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no]
"Speak nicely."
[ ]
[See You Later]
"Nothing else to say?" He Yuezhe walked out of the temple and stood on the top of a dense tree.
She looked out at the land in the distance.
Everything was peaceful, the lights were bright, and the sky was filled with fireworks. It seemed that the war had not been successfully launched, at least, not as far as she could see.
[Take care of yourself]
[besides]
[Thanks]
