Chao Yan looked at him from afar in the small town, the long wind blowing her black hair.
He woke up at Su Wensheng's home, got up, rummaged through his schoolbag, his cell phone, his computer...then he opened the window and saw the sycamore tree outside.
He stood up, pushed the door open, met Su Luoluo, and started to go to school. He met the head teacher Xia Jiawen, and then attended the class, slacking off and looking at his phone during class.
——Nothing was different.
Without external changes, his behavior pattern will always be the same and he will never break his "predestined destiny".
When he woke up in bed, the calendar returned to February 3rd. He forgot that he had been running in the rain, chasing after Grandma Lin under the camera. He forgot that he had stood on the platform and preached, passionately demanding a thorough investigation of the Ark Project under the eyes of the whole world. He forgot that he had witnessed the shocking passing of the torch by fifty fire bearers, and he also forgot that he had ignited the fire and desperately walked step by step to the prophecy stone wall.
Chao Yan stood on a tall building in the distance, watching him from afar through the thin glass of the classroom. He was playing with his phone on the desk, and he seemed to have a vague sense of something being wrong, but it soon dissipated.
"Okay, okay, this is the last time, I'll try it one last time..." Chao Yan murmured to herself.
She changed her strategy - she couldn't show her whole self to Su Ming'an from the beginning. He was a person who liked to get to the bottom of things. Only if she acted mysterious enough would he pay attention to her.
——He was a person controlled by the so-called "main mission". Only when her own value exceeded this "main mission" would he give up the requirements of the main mission and reach the prophecy stone wall.
She arranged their first meeting in Lou Yue Kingdom.
The evening breeze blew up the shells on the beach, the waves crashed freely in the salty wind, and the girl holding the medicine basket waited on the hillside where he would definitely appear. She pinched the hem of her floral skirt, but there was no joy in her eyes for the upcoming meeting.
She is indeed a person who values feelings, but in her eyes, such feelings are more like a kind of rationality that can be separated. Even though she and he made a promise before death in the last round, promising not to forget each other - but since he can't avoid not forgetting her, she will pretend that she has never met him, so that she can better prevent him from walking to the prophecy stone wall.
"Those promises made by the stars...those candies...forget them. Even though we once lived and died together, now that everything is starting over, let's just pretend that they never existed." Chao Yan muttered to herself, with a calm look in her eyes:
“…Ah, here he comes.”
…
[Su Mingan loaded into the game and heard the crisp sound of water. ]
[His previous body was taken away by Li Mingyue. He thought that when he opened his eyes, he should be in Penglai Fairy Island.]
[But when he opened his eyes, he saw darkness and the plain. In the distance, smoke rose from the village, and there were wheat fields and oxen plowing in the distance. He lay on the plain, his body sunk into the mud and grass, and continuous spring rain fell from the sky.]
[A flowered skirt appears at the edge of my vision, with plum blossoms embroidered on the edge, revealing a pair of small cloth shoes. This seems to be a village girl.]
[“Are you okay? Are you still alive…” Her voice was as clear as a gurgling stream.]
[Su Mingan gasped, his vision went dark, and he passed out.]
…
——But why would the girl from the village wait in such a place and just happen to pick him up?
——This was clearly a first encounter that the girl had carefully created in order to make him feel good about her.
Their positions have been reversed.
—— Chao Yan regards Su Mingan as an "NPC" whose behavior pattern will not change, and she is a "player" who can always retain her memory between different rounds——she must conquer him.
The main task in her mind is to "stop Su Mingan from reaching the prophecy stone wall."
Chao Yan looked at Su Mingan lying on the ground. He was wearing the Qingyang Sword Sect's uniform, which was exactly the same as in every playthrough. She picked him up and treated his injuries.
In this fourth week, Chao Yan has always maintained the posture of a riddle person, maintaining a full sense of mystery, and from time to time she burns her life to protect him, showing strong strength. This makes Su Mingan begin to believe in her, become curious about her, and begin to regard her as a very important person.
On the fourth day, Su Ming'an received the main task of "walking to the prophecy stone wall", and he told Chao Yan about it.
Chao Yan raised her eyes - it was a look that showed that she was clearly expecting it, but she was trying hard to pretend not to know.
"... Main mission." Chao Yan said slowly: "Can I not complete it?"
——It is because of the main quest, it is because of this thing called the main quest that makes you despair again and again.
"No, this is the most important thing for me." Su Ming'an shook his head, his pupils covered with a layer of white color. He was obviously not in a clear state, but he thought he had just started a copy.
"——Don't complete it!" Chao Yan said loudly: "It will be very dangerous."
She tried to stop him by using the meaning of "danger". She repeatedly emphasized the concept of "if you walk to the prophecy stone wall, something terrible will happen", but he just smiled at her.
No, no, no.
After persuading for ten minutes without any response, Chaoyan finally felt Su Mingan's stubbornness, which made her a little scared.
No matter what reasons she came up with to stop him, he would not give up the idea of "completing the main mission". It was like a mental stamp that she could not remove - his free will seemed to have been controlled by this invisible thing.
Although she knew clearly in her heart that he must be willing to be manipulated. Just like he was willing to be bound by the responsibility of being the "First Player". So he would complete the main mission no matter what, even if it was riddled with holes in the end.
