"What did he say at that time?" Lin Sanjiu asked, flipping the book back and forth twice—you don't need to read carefully, but you know that the content on each page makes people's scalp tingle, as if there are cloths on every page. It is full of steel teeth and iron rings, waiting to be strangled at any time.

Ever since Hei Zeji handed over the book, he seemed much more relaxed, as if he had lifted a heavy burden. "Basically, he didn't say anything useful except that he wanted me to read the book."

"Then... what did you see in the twelve pages?" Lin Sanjiu asked herself that it was impossible to read through the twelve pages line by line—life is too short.

Kurosawa raised his eyelids and said with a gloomy face, "Probably... probably talking about the scope and obstacles of moral application of technology."

"Can you really see the meaning?"

Lin Sanjiu was surprised instead, picked out a random passage and stared at it carefully for a while. She felt as if she was staring at the clouds and mist on the top of a distant mountain. The outlines were always gradually converging and changing, and it was unpredictable. When she moved her eyes, she only remembered that she had seen the clouds and mist, but she couldn't describe the shape. "Can I borrow this book?"

"What do you want it to do?" Kurosawa Ji was a little surprised, and added: "Of course, it's not impossible. Do you want to relay it?"

Judging from his tone, it seems that if someone can watch the relay with him, it is really wishful.

"No no," Lin Sanjiu didn't want him to have such a misunderstanding, "I'll transform it into a card to see if there is any hidden content."

Kurosawa Ji nodded without moving his expression.

Fushiro hoped that what Kurosawaji would read should not be what the book appeared on the surface, and Kurosawaji would naturally not miss this; but he seemed to feel that as long as he read it bravely, the real The content will naturally surface—but this is not martial arts practice, reality can be changed by will and tempering.

What exactly is the content, Fu Xiluo didn't say it directly, but put it in a book?

Or, the person who gave the book at that time was still the Lord Li?

However, is this ability to create an unreadable book possessed by Li Zhijun?

Lin Sanjiu closed the book and put it between his palms, his mind moved slightly.

【Book】

If the title of the book was also listed, then Lin Sanjiu wouldn't have to do anything else today, just keep scrolling. The volume of the book is vast, the author is unknown, and the purpose is unknown, and it seems that the number of pages will gradually increase as the reading progresses-that is, the number of pages read will increase the number of pages in the book. It can be said that it is extremely cost-effective, a book to read for a lifetime, the best choice for living on a deserted island.

...This kind of nonsense content, even if you don't write it, it's okay, right?

Lin Sanjiu sighed in his stomach.

Considering that the book was probably given by Fu Xiluo, the result was not surprising at all, there was no valuable information on the card—she only knew that the twelve pages that Kurosawaji had read just now were all in vain.

She intends to try other methods.

When she read this book just now, she thought of Fu Xiluo's oath. Her method is very simple, and it is also a good opportunity to see if Fu Xiluo really swears: just ask him.

"Is there any result?" Kurosawa asked, stretching his head.

"Look," Lin Sanjiu showed him the card, and Heizeji turned his eyes twice, and his complexion sank.

"The longer it looks, the longer it looks?" His fierce expression at the moment could probably scare Feng Huanyan into a hiccup. "So those ugly things I've seen are useless?"

Lin Sanjiu patted him on the shoulder, unzipped the book, and comforted him: "Don't worry, I—"

Before I finished speaking, I only heard a muffled sound of "Dong", as if something fell to the ground.

Lin Sanjiu looked at the book that had just been restored in his hand, and met Kuizeji's puzzled gaze again. Together, the two lowered their heads towards the floor with a little bewilderment.

Where the muffled sound hit the carpet, there was another book with the same size and thickness and the same cover design; it was almost exactly the same as the one that Kurosawa Ji was reading just now and that Lin Sanjiu was holding in his hand—the only book The difference is that there is a layer of different colors under the densely packed small print titles.

"how…"

Hei Zeji bent down to pick up the book, and placed it side by side with the one in Lin Sanjiu's hand on the table. "An extra copy? It fell from your card? It... Can it split and proliferate by itself?"

"It seems that when I deactivated the card, it became two copies," Lin Sanjiu tried to recall the details of the conversion just now, and whispered. "Why did it split into two?"

The split new book looks like a continuation of the same series: the title of the book also makes people wonder where to start, but it can be seen that it is a different title; when the first page is opened, the text is also different.

"I can't tell what nonsense they are talking about at all," Lin Sanjiu said, rubbing his forehead vigorously.

"Maybe the second book is for you," Hei Zeji said abruptly, looking at the books on the table, which surprised her. "Didn't you distribute an extra card after you had contact with your card's ability? Take it."

Lin Sanjiu raised his head and glanced at him. There was no expression on his side face; but his tone was so natural that even she felt the same way, thinking that the second book was probably for her.

Kurosawaji's intuition is no worse than hers; then... just take it to ask Fu Xiluo.

Exodus is too big, if there is no location record in the Shales system, it will become a headache and a lot of trouble to find someone.

Lin Sanjiu walked around for a while, and found that not only did she not find Fu Xiluo, but the others had already dispersed, and she didn't know if they had all returned to their rooms; she didn't know where to look for it, so she had to go back to the viewing platform . In fact, she didn't have to go in to feel that there was no one in it—but she went in anyway, into a cloud of blue, near-silence, cool air.

The lights are all turned off, and in the dim night shadows, there is still the residual warmth left by relatives and friends not long ago.

If she puts her hand into the air above the bar, she seems to be able to touch the traces of Qing Jiuliu's movements passing through time when she put down the cup; the place where Bohemia asked to see Yu Yuan's tattoo is on the sofa not far away On the bed, faintly flickering waves of light appeared when the chatter and laughter gradually faded away. In front of the empty and flat glass window, there is a figure standing in the distance...

etc.

Lin Sanjiu paused.

In front of the empty and flat glass window, a figure stood far away.

It wasn't her flashbacks to her relatives and friends, nor was it an illusion that came out of her eyes—it's just that when she hurried up a few steps, she quickly realized that the figure was not standing "in front of" the glass window. .

Outside the viewing glass, on the edge of the dark gray-green forest, there is indeed a person standing; although the figure of that person's back is blurred, almost as if the night is undulating behind the shade of the forest, the brief staggering of shadows makes Lin Sanjiu feel strange. There was a strong feeling: that person, she knew.

"Sarais?" Lin Sanjiu called out immediately. "Who is there?"

"The security camera system didn't pick up any suspicious activity in the vicinity," Shales replied calmly.

Lin Sanjiu had already stepped back step by step. Did the man see her?

Regardless of whether she saw it or not, the figure did not move, and it seemed that she hadn't shown signs of leaving; that is to say, she still had a little time—

"Open the door!"

With a slight hiss of the hatch valve, Lin Sanjiu turned sideways, and before the hatch was fully opened, he threw himself into the night outside. The cabin door and the glass window of the viewing platform were not facing in the same direction; her feet landed on the ground almost silently, and under the cover of night, she walked around to the side of Exodus that was close to the woods.

She couldn't get out a few steps.

When the feet landed on the ground, the night was cold, and the pale thin moonlight flowed slowly through the heavy dark blue clouds together with time, and flowed into the world. Everything was no different from the past few nights .

When Lin Sanjiu went around in the direction of the woods, she couldn't move anymore.

It seems that the world above the head and under the feet has softened, time, air, gravity... are all entangled and melted, and turned into layers of soft substances, which reminds people of the plasticine they played with when they were young; when she takes a step, the sticky world He caught her foot and stretched it back softly. The distance between Lin Sanjiu and the destination was not only not close, but a step further away.

It seems that when she didn't know, someone changed a set of physical laws, the world didn't hurt her, it just acted according to the new physical laws; but surrounded by the thick and soft new rules, Lin Sanjiu didn't know it at all How should I act.

She didn't even know where she was standing, if there was still air to carry her voice when she opened her mouth to shout.

what happened?

For a moment, Lin Sanjiu almost forgot about her surprise and fear; she even suspected that she was still in the library, falling asleep because she was so bored reading. This kind of world can only be shaped by dreams, and only in dreams can you run without being able to run, right?

"Why are you here?"

Fu Xiluo's voice was like a basin of snow water, Lin Sanjiu was poured into the head, and the whole person was sober - she suddenly realized that she was falling to the ground slowly and at double speed. go.

This kind of slow decline that seemed to have infinite resistance even to the air should not have caused her any harm; it was just that when Lin Sanjiu came back to her senses for a moment, the survival warning that suddenly burst out in her mind did not cause any harm. It made her blood vessels tremble faintly.

One of Fu Xiluo's hands gently grasped her back, stopping her sinking.

"You shouldn't have come out," he whispered. "It's too dangerous for you."

When being pulled up by him bit by bit, the sense of the world turning into a ball of soft mud also gradually receded from Lin Sanjiu, as if she was really pulled out of the mud ball.

"What... what's going on?" She could feel that her hands and feet, still immersed in that weird state, still seemed to be melting into a part of the world.

"I found out that someone is observing us." Fuxiluo said. "So I came out to see what was going on, and put a stop to it."

"Who?" Lin Sanjiu immediately asked, "That figure in the woods?"

"Forest?" Fuxiluo laughed out of his throat. "No, she's not in the woods... She's standing outside this layer of the universe, observing by time flow."
