First Player

   "Not wearing it." Su Mingan said.

  He thought the answer was over, but the next moment, the system prompt popped up again:

  …

  【Are you really sure not to wear the "Eye of the Old Days"? 】

  【Wear/Not wear. 】

  …

  This time, the three words "don't wear" turned **** red, as if reminding him that if you don't wear it, there will be terrible consequences.

  But Su Mingan knew very well that this thing should never be worn on his body. Even if there are benefits, he would rather erase a hidden danger.

   "Not wearing it." Su Mingan said.

  The next moment, the system prompts for the third time:

  【You really finally decided not to wear the "Eye of the Old"? 】

  【Wear/Not wear. 】

  …

   The three words "not wearing" have begun to twist, and the **** red is like blood, which seems to be flowing down. The words were like a pair of distorted eyes staring at him coldly.

   "I don't wear it." Su Mingan replied for the third time, with an extremely firm answer.

  The system prompt no longer pops up.

  Su Mingan took off the necklace smoothly. It was lying on the palm of his hand, and the eyeballs that were originally lively had become static, like an ordinary wooden pendant.

  He stared at the necklace, sending a chill down his spine.

  He has never seen such a strange copy. Even Baisha Paradise, its underworld is visible to the naked eye, and its background is limited to a small school.

  But this copy of "Old World" has an extremely large and wide background—from the current world to Lou Yue Kingdom, from Lou Yue to the seaside village. From the beginning to the present, the weirdness of the world is hidden in every corner, almost everywhere. It seemed that wherever he went, there was a pair of eyes staring at him.

  He clenched the wooden pendant in his hand and put it into the backpack grid.

  He lifted the broken bricks next to him, and tried to find Zhao Yan's figure in the ruins. But he knew in his heart that if she hadn't appeared by now, there was a high probability that she would have died from the beating of the tentacles. If she was just an ordinary orphan girl in the village, she wouldn't be able to avoid such swift tentacles at all.

"I'm here."

   An ethereal voice came from behind.

  Su Mingan turned his head and saw the black-haired girl sitting quietly among the flesh and bones of human beings. Her body was covered in blood and dust, as if she had just crawled out of the ruins.

  She lifted the half corpse on her knee expressionlessly, and slowly stood up, with a very quiet expression, without the most basic fear and aversion to the smell of blood.

   "So you're fine." Su Mingan said.

Zhao Yan walked a few steps, her arms and thighs had obvious scars, which should have been scratched by tentacles, a few wooden thorns and nails pierced her skin, and bright red blood flowed, but she didn't seem to feel it. Feeling the pain, he staggered towards him step by step, still holding the medicine basket in his hand.

  Her eyes shifted slightly, looking at the dead old man Wang and the incomplete corpses of several villagers under the ruins. She could see the anguish and madness of their faces before they died, every crease, every wrinkle on their faces.

  The sea breeze blows, the monster has long since disappeared, and the morning light gradually appears in the distance.

   "They were still arrogant just now, thinking about how to squeeze me tomorrow." Chaoyan said: "In less than a few minutes, they were killed by the alien species, and they died so that there was not even a whole body left."

  She stared at these corpses, her gaze remained motionless, as if pitying them.

  Seeing her, Su Mingan thought of her non-resisting attitude just now, and felt that she was too kind: "Do you have sympathy for those who oppress you and kidnap you morally?"

   Chaoyan raised her head, the sea breeze was blowing the purple and white morning glory she was holding.

"Life is like this. No one knows which will come first, tomorrow or the accident." Zhao Yan's voice was very quiet, like a gurgling stream, and it was more peaceful in the morning light: "I don't hate anyone. I think They are born beautiful, just like flowers, even if they are painted with an ugly side, they can be redeemed. I hope to see their beautiful appearance when they bloom, even if they are pessimistic, heavy, and depressing. Even their "anti-human" side It will make me understand the rare beauty when they are good-so even if they express their desire and ugliness to me, I hope they will correct their evil and be persuaded by me. When they can be redeemed, this contrasting beauty is what moves me the most moment."

   "Don't you feel angry?" It was the first time Su Mingan heard this concept. This is no longer a concept that normal human beings can bear.

   Redemption, compassion, extremes. I have been oppressed for several years without resentment.

   It's almost like... God loves the world.

"Is it possible to forgive after being hurt and see the healing? No, it is only myself who prompts me to forgive them. Of course I will be angry when encountering these ugly things, but before that, I hope My anger will not affect their self-salvation." Zhao Yan said.

  She stood in the morning light, her emerald green pupils were still as beautiful as a work of art, and her figure was so slender that it would break if folded. But in Su Mingan's eyes, she seemed extremely huge.

   "..." Su Mingan was silent for a while: "It's a great idea, I respect your idea."

  On his shoulder, the shadow of a fox is looming.

   "How do I feel that the orphans in a small village have more divinity than me." Xiao Ai fell into reflection.

   "I think you're fine." Su Mingan perfunctory in a low voice.

  Xiao Ai shook her big tail, looking very happy.

  Su Mingan raised his head and looked at Chao Yan:

   "But are you really just an orphan girl?"

   Chao Yan nodded: "Yes. I have lived here for many years."

   Asagao placed her hand gently on her chest. Only then did Su Mingan realize that there was a very thin cross hanging on her chest.

  She held the cross, stared at him, and said softly:

   "I'm just...an ordinary orphan girl from a small village."

  At this moment, her eyes were full of deep sorrow and loneliness, like a silent dead fire. Su Mingan's heart trembled, and he looked away.

   There were more than a dozen surviving villagers lying on the ground in the distance, and they looked at Su Mingan and Chaoyan tremblingly. It was no longer like looking at an outsider and an orphan girl, but like looking at two monsters.

  The gray-haired village head stood up tremblingly on crutches, and pointed at Su Mingan:

   "It's you! It must be you!"

   "It's you, an outsider, who brought the alien species! It's you who brought the disaster! We've lived by the sea for generations, and we've never seen this kind of thing. As soon as you came, it appeared!"

  The village chief waved his arm and pointed at Chao Yan:

"And you! You orphan girl! It must have been you who brought the disaster, you saved people back! I have always thought that you, an orphan girl, would definitely bring misfortune if you came to our village. I knew that a few years ago I should sell you together!"

  He yelled like a maniac, having lost his mind under the influence of the tentacles.

   Chaoyan heard the words and asked, "So the girl who came to this village with me ten years ago was sold by you?"

   It was ten years ago when she came to this village as an orphan. At that time, she also had a girl who played with her, also an orphan who was displaced by the famine. The villagers warmly accepted the two of them, but within a few days, the girl disappeared.

   Chaoyan showed her talent in familiarizing with medicinal herbs, so the villagers did not touch her. It turned out that the girl was sold.

   "So what if we sell it! It's useless to keep it anyway, it's better to let us have enough to eat!" The village chief was already looking crazy.

   Chao Yan shook her head, but said nothing.

  Su Mingan took out the "Trea Mechanical Roulette", which is a disc that can theoretically carry two to three people. He glanced at Chaoyan next to him: "I'm going to participate in the Penglai Xianxuan, do you want to go with me?"

   Chaoyan glanced at the village chief who was still cursing, and nodded to Su Mingan: "Okay. I have nowhere to go now, and the village can no longer accept me."

   "Aren't you angry yet? Your friend was betrayed by them." Su Mingan noticed that Chaoyan still had no expression.

   "Please let me handle it myself." Chao Yan said, "Let's go."

   "Blindly giving in will make the villains push forward." Su Mingan said.

   "I understand." Zhao Yan said, "Let's go."

  Su Mingan didn't persuade him much. He pulled Chaoyan onto the mechanical roulette and took her to fly towards the capital.

   Chaoyan was still bleeding, so Su Mingan fed her some blood bottles, helped her pull out the wooden thorns on her arms, and bandaged her with some bandages and other first-aid supplies in her backpack. This kind of miscellaneous things Su Mingan always has, and they are basically given to him by those players in the fifth world.

  Her arms are full of dense wooden thorns, nails, and even broken kitchen utensils, all of which were pierced when the house collapsed. The wounds looked terrible. Su Mingan helped her pull out one by one, leaving hideous gaps, blood gushing out, just looking at it hurts.

  However, she always had a flat expression, just staring at him.

  After dressing up, she sat on the roulette with her legs hanging outside the roulette, watching the scenery silently. Su Mingan chatted with her about her past. She said that she was just an ordinary orphan girl in a small village. She spent her past life watching the starry sky in the fields, nothing special.

  The speed of the mechanical roulette was extremely fast, and they arrived at the edge of the capital at seven o'clock in the morning.

  Su Mingan intends to leave the game first, and he will come back to the hall when Penglai Xianxuan is about to end in the evening. Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi slapped the royal family in the face. It is very efficient to complete the main task in one fell swoop.

   "I'm going to leave for a while." Su Mingan looked at Chao Yan who got off the roulette.

   "Are you leaving?" Chao Yan didn't seem surprised by this.

   "I am not from this era." Su Mingan said, "But tonight, I will come back."

   Chao Yan looked at him without asking any questions.

  Her eyes are very transparent. At this moment, Su Mingan once again remembered her divine side just now. Chaoyan seems to have full respect for other people's secrets, and will not be curious about his identity, nor will he ask him "what is a different era".

  Seeing that Chaoyan has been silent, Su Mingan chose to go offline.

  When Su Mingan left, Chao Yan turned around and pinched her fingers.

  A long sword appeared at her feet. The blade was transparent, like glass, and it looked like an extraordinary sword. She stood on the long sword, and when the wind blew, she quickly flew in the original direction.

  When Chao Yan returned to the village, the village chief and the villagers were still cursing. They picked up the broken corpses on the ground and discussed how to take revenge on outsiders next time.

  However, there was a flash of sword light in the sky, and in an instant, the village chief and villagers who were cursing turned into a puddle of flesh and blood.

  Chao Yan withdrew her sword light and touched the ground with her feet.

"Been affected by the tentacles of the alien king, you will be gradually alienated into monsters in the future. I can only end the pain for you." Zhao Yan said to herself: "I thought you could repent, but I didn't expect that you did something wrong in the first place. "

  In the past ten years, the village has encountered crises more than once, and each time it was Chaoyan who quietly took action and killed the pirates and bandits approaching the village. If it wasn't for her, these villagers would have never known that they had died countless times. The villagers didn't even know that this orphan girl had been quietly protecting their village.

  As a result, today the village chief lost his mind and told about the abduction and trafficking back then. Only then did she discover that the villagers had committed crimes from the very beginning.

  Then she took back the lives they had saved by her, as it should be.

  —Save their goodness, forgive their ugliness, and persevere. No matter how much they oppressed her and humiliated her, she still regarded them as lost lambs and tried to redeem them.

  —But once their accumulated ugliness exceeds the bottom line, immediately give up salvation and kill them.

  She is like a **** scale.

  She stared at these corpses silently, collected bones for them, cast tombs, and presented flowers, hoping that they would be washed away in the next life.

   "Go to the suburbs of Beijing first, and wait for him to come back." Zhaoyan thought: "The current identity is 'small village orphan girl', let's keep this identity for now."

  …

  Su Mingan withdrew from the "Lou Yue Kingdom" game, and the popularity of the live broadcast room has reached 400 million.

  He opened the Dream Tour forum and saw a lot of people frantically swiping the screen.

  【(Hot) The No. 1 Dream Watcher has launched a live broadcast! The possessed one is indeed the eldest prince! 】

  【(Hot) First-line star Meng Ya claims that she is a fanatic fan of No. 1 Dream Tourer and hopes to have dinner with him. 】

  【(Hot) Director Wang, who filmed "The Legend of Concubine Lou Yueshu", said that inviting the No. 1 dream watcher to participate in the filming will give him the position of No. 1 male and generous rewards. 】

  【(Hot) The advertiser Xiumei Cosmetology brand intends to invite No. 1 Dream Patroller to endorse and promote famous brand eye cream and new noble lipstick. 】

  …

  Su Mingan flipped through his private messages, and there were already 9999999+ people who left messages for him. The big V is trying to gain popularity, the celebrity wants to build a relationship with him, and a lot of advertisers want to invite him to bring goods in the live broadcast. He took a brief look at the cosmetic brands, gourmet products, kidney treatment tablets, pillows... There are many categories, all in a mess.

"Even in the dangerous apocalypse, as long as people's negative emotions can be reduced and the alien species on the front line will not become stronger. The coalition government will still work hard to create a world where entertainment is paramount... The Internet has therefore become the best channel for emotional release." Su Mingan thought for a moment, then excerpted Taking off the dream patrol helmet: "Entertainment to death, everywhere."

   Today is the second day after the dungeon opens, at 7:00 am. He remembered that he was going to meet a godfather named "Moon". Although he didn't sleep all night, the three hours of being seriously injured and comatose should be enough.

  At this moment, he suddenly felt a little heavy in his neck.

  He lowered his head—a wooden pendant with vivid eyeballs hung quietly around his neck.
