Chapter 143 Snail is a newcomer, please take care of me
"The dungeon can't be a dead end, there must be a solution."
"Anyway, at present, there is no danger in the castle. Let's investigate immediately."
"When the boss wakes up, should we ask about the precautions, so as not to trigger some irreversible death conditions."
"I think it's okay, but since Brother Xia said that we want us to enjoy the moment, I think this is very similar to the direction of investigation."
"Actually, at the beginning of the dungeon, besides the paper figurine, I also vaguely saw a shadow in the blizzard, but I hadn't had time to look closely at that time. After the paper figurine appeared, the shadow disappeared. I'm not sure I misread it. Or is it actually someone else."
Both newcomers and old people were talking about their own thoughts and discoveries. Although they said they should lie flat and hug their thighs, they still didn't want to let go of such a good exercise opportunity.
After everyone finished listing a bunch of suspicious points they found and determined the direction of investigation, almost an hour had passed, and it happened that Xiao Qi also woke up, and everyone went to ask Xiao Qi for precautions as scheduled.
Xiao Qi thought for a while and said, "It's nothing, just don't take the initiative to hurt, and learn to enjoy the current life."
In this way, the players began to explore in the castle as if they were unblocked.Of course, Chun Xiao and those two newcomers were not in the exploration team.
Because there is a calm boss there to support the scene, no one feels fear in the face of this kind of scene that tomorrow will never come. People follow what the boss said, enjoy the current dungeon, and treat the dungeon as a secret room adventure. You don't even need to worry about time, work, or even life problems, what to eat three meals a day.
Complete relaxation made everyone motivated and full of energy. People began to observe the castle carefully. They were not in a hurry and sometimes even stayed in a collection room for an afternoon to discuss every collection in it.
After two days without knowing it, the players found more clues in the castle.The first is the kind of oil painting that shows the flow of real events. There is actually more than one painting. These paintings do not change all the time, and not everyone can see them.
Like paintings, there are other things in the castle that implicitly indicate the flow of time, such as the ordering of insects in various periods in the insect specimen collection room, and the cracked handrails have become complete again...
Wan Yao has not been idle for the past two days, and he naturally found another team exploring the villa, but Xia Luoluo and that man were not in the team.Wan Yao has not figured out the situation of this dungeon so far, so he never dared to use the charm skill, and he did not encounter any danger in the dungeon.
Not only that, but Wan Yao felt as if he was being targeted by dungeons. Every day when he ate, there would be one less chicken leg. He always felt that the food he ate was getting worse and worse, and even the room he lived in was getting worse and worse. Comfortable, the temperature is getting lower and lower, the sound insulation effect is getting worse, and I will fall asleep with the wind every night.
Under the influence of anxiety and the external environment, Wan Yao's expression began to haggard rapidly again, Xiao Qi sighed repeatedly, and couldn't help comforting him for a few minutes every time he ate.Every time after comforting, Wan Yao's face would be particularly rosy, which made Xiao Qi a little relieved.
Gradually, the two players who followed Wan Yao also began to show their favor to other players. The others also found out the boss's temper these days and accepted the two newcomers.
When the newcomers joined this group, they were surprised to find that they discovered far more than Chun Xiao.It's ridiculous that Chunxiao is still hiding there, unwilling to share it with anyone, as if afraid of being stolen and discovered by others.
As the boss said to everyone, this dungeon needs to enjoy the present. When you really start to enjoy life in the castle, taste the food in the castle carefully, and appreciate the collections in the castle, the castle will give corresponding feedback.
For example, the painter who first discovered the problem was himself a romantic person. As soon as he entered the castle, he had a great interest and love for the oil paintings of the castle, so he could find clues from the oil paintings.And that Chunxiao, because of the anxiety all day long, not only did not feel fond of the castle, but even thought about escaping all the time, when he was eating, his mind was not on the food, and when he was sleeping, his mind was not on the bedroom. After the castle sensed these, Naturally, there was a corresponding reaction.
And the little snowmen in the castle have also been discovered by the players. After all, they are under the same roof, and they will always be exposed after a long time.Not only that, but the player also discovered that outside the castle, there are many snowmen hidden in the blizzard.
Those snowmen sometimes even secretly lie on the windows and look in, and once they are discovered, they will quickly disappear into the snowstorm.The little snowmen in the castle are much easier to handle, they are both awe and curious to the player.At first, it will disappear quickly when it is discovered by the player, but after a few times, it no longer disappears, but avoids it from a distance, and then gets closer with curiosity, stretching out a hand made of dead branches and gently tugging at the player's trousers.Up to now, as long as the player shows a smiling face, the little snowman will come over and circle the player.
The female players in the team have long been conquered by the little snowman, but when the players touch the little snowman, they will have a dream at night, and the dream is a story that happened in the old castle.It seems that the little snowman witnessed the past from another angle. In the dream, the owner of the castle and his lover live here happily. After the heavy snow, the two like to build many snowmen outside the castle.
They will collect many interesting things, study delicious dishes, go hunting, store food...
Whenever the player wakes up from the dream, it will take a few minutes to recover from the indulging happiness in the dream. The powerful appeal makes them, outsiders, feel at ease and happy.But behind such happiness, they faintly made them feel uneasy.
Yes, the players have speculated through various evidences and dreams that they are likely to live in someone's good memory, and the carrier of the memory is the little snowman.If you want to break this false memory and let time move forward again, then the easiest and most possible way is to kill those memories and wake up the dreamer.
But isn't killing the memory the same as killing the little snowman?Such a cute elf-like existence.The players tacitly didn't say this guess, and just waited quietly. After all, they still have big bosses, don't they?As long as the boss is not in a hurry, they don't have to be in a hurry.
This peace lasted until late one night, when an insomniac player came out of the bedroom and habitually strolled towards the fireplace, intending to nest there for a while, but when he got there, he saw a little snowman adding wood to the fireplace.There seems to be nothing wrong with this move, but the problem is that it is the snowman who adds the firewood.
The player watched that the little snowman was about to melt, but he was still carrying the firewood persistently towards the fireplace. In the end, he threw the firewood into the fireplace, leaving a string of wet water stains behind him.
The player was stunned for a moment, then frantically rushed over to pick up the melting little snowman, and then rushed to Xiaoqi's door and knocked frantically.
The hasty knock on the door woke everyone up. As soon as they opened the door, they saw a crying female player holding a melted little snowman in her hand.
As soon as Xiaoqi opened the door, the player cried and said, "Brother Xia, it is going to melt, can you save it?"
"It turned into another one." Seeing the little snowman, Xiao Qi sighed, "It would be good to put it outside the castle, but they will run back by themselves, so it's useless."
After hearing this, the female player didn't care so much, and ran directly to the door, and put the little snowman outside the door, but the little snowman jumped back through the crack of the door the moment it hit the ground.The player quickly pushed the little snowman to close the door, but the little snowman flashed and walked in through the door. After entering, he was still talking happily while circling around the crowd.
The female player was silent. She told the others about her discovery, and everyone was silent after hearing it. Combined with what the boss said just now, it is not difficult to guess that before they found out, many little snowmen had already melted up.
"What are your expressions? Isn't this a good thing? But since you have a way to catch these memory snowmen, why didn't you tell me earlier!" Wan Yao couldn't understand the heavy expressions on everyone's faces. He naturally these days I also discovered that time goes back and the carriers of memory fragments are those snowmen who appear and disappear, but those snowmen can disappear out of thin air, so it is difficult to find, let alone capture. Wan Yao thinks about the method of capturing or killing the snowman. .
No one paid any attention to Wan Yao, and everyone watched silently as the jumping little snowman finally melted completely, turned into water stains, and finally disappeared completely.
At this moment, the player finally understands what it means to cherish the present. No matter whether the time in this world is moving forward or backward, no matter whether it is spring or autumn, when the weather warms up, the little snowmen will slowly melt, and the memories they carry will also be Slowly disappearing, the dreamer will wake up eventually, and tomorrow will eventually come.
The difference is that in this dungeon, you choose to enjoy the beauty in the little snowman's memory and wake up from a dream.Or choose to capture and kill the little snowman, turning this dream into a nightmare.
They are powerless to change the passage of time, but they cannot see the flow of time, and human beings have never had a deep feeling for invisible things.But when they witnessed the little snowman melting little by little, they finally saw the cruel truth, and what they can do is to live every minute and every second seriously.
As the boss said, this is a very simple dungeon, you don't have to think about anything, as time goes by, you can clear the level after all the little snowmen melt.Here, there's not even any danger, it's a trip of total and pure relaxation.
In the following days, the blizzard outside the castle gradually weakened, and there were fewer and fewer little snowmen in the castle.Even if the player took the initiative to undertake the high-temperature work of adding firewood to the fireplace, the little snowmen were getting thinner day by day.
It's not just the little snowmen who hope that the flow of time will slow down, but the players also begin to hope that time will pass slowly so that the parting can come later.
But no matter how slow time goes, the dungeon will end eventually, and the sweet dream will finally wake up.
When the last two little snowmen prepared the last breakfast for the players and melted on the dining table, the gloomy sky outside the castle suddenly cleared up at that moment. The bright light pierced the sky, and the blizzard disappeared. Looking out the window, It is found that the outside of the castle is already a golden color of autumn.
The golden leaves have not yet fallen from the branches, and the snow has not yet fallen on the ground. The yellow and soft grass stretches far away, like undulating waves.
The players ate their last meal in silence and earnestly. Some of them wept silently, and some had red eyes.Seeing this, Xiao Qi felt that this was not good. According to his experience in raising piglets, he was prone to get sick when he was in a bad mood. "I'm telling you quietly, although the little snowman melts, the memory will not disappear."
The players looked at Xiao Qi blankly, and it took a long time for hope to rekindle in their eyes.
"Boss, are you saying that the little snowman hasn't disappeared?"
"Boss, after we leave the instance, there will be another winter here!"
……
Xiao Qi did not give an answer directly, but said, "The body will eventually be annihilated, because the body is bound by time and death, but emotion, memory, soul and other intangible things can transcend the time limit of life and death. If there is a destiny, they will soon Goodbye."
The players looked at each other, and then one of them asked cautiously, "Boss, are you a master in reality?"
Xiao Qi, "Don't talk nonsense, Snail doesn't have one." Could Snail be exposed again?No, it must be just a coincidence.
