"You said you can die by sleeping..." the man drawled, "Yes, yes, you will die sooner or later anyway, so what's wrong with dying in your sleep."
"Do you still remember how you came in?" Xu Huo asked, "Were there anyone else with you?"
The man grinned and said, "Not everyone can enter 'Midsummer Night'. Only those who have hope can enter."
Then he told the story of his coming in with personal emotion.
First, he saw a colorful light - which he regarded as a special sign of the "Midsummer Night" selection. Then a heavy fog appeared where he was staying, and the fog covered the entire Brownskin City. Finally, he walked through it alone.
A special passage leads to this world of white mist, which is the "Midsummer Night World".
As for how he passed through the "special passage", he himself did not remember. He only felt a light breeze blowing on him and changed places the next second.
After he came in, he didn't see anyone else, thinking that he was special and would definitely be able to see the legendary "Midsummer Night Star River". He was very happy for a while, but when he walked around the whole city, he didn't have any clue, and instead he was starving.
Almost dead, this belief still hasn't gone away.
He changed his direction and felt that "Midsummer Night's Starry River" cannot be found by himself, but must be "chosen", which means that his current approach is in vain. If he really has hope of being rescued, it must be "Midsummer Night's Starry River".
"Galaxy" took the initiative to appear in front of him.
"Maybe it's in a dream." The man couldn't help but speculate.
"Have you personally seen people who were saved by the 'Midsummer Night Star River'?" Xu Huo asked, seeing how confident he was.
The man glanced at him excitedly and nodded vigorously, "In our Brown City, he was exactly the same as me at the time, but after he came out of 'Midsummer Night', he got better, really got better, and all the brown skin on his body was gone.
Now, I have grown out that kind of new skin with a hint of pink, which is beautiful and smooth, and is real human skin!"
Xu Huo was a good listener and did not interrupt him. He waited until he finished speaking his thoughts before asking: "People who have survived must have told their own experiences."
The man has said it many times, but when asked, he never tires of starting from the beginning.
The man who was saved by "Midsummer Night's Starry River" was a young man in his early twenties, and his experience was legendary.
The lifespan of Brown Skin City is shorter than the average in District 013, and many people die at a young age from fungi and various pollutants produced by them. That young man left home alone because he didn’t want his mother to see him die.
Enter the forest.
This kind of situation is not uncommon in Brown Skin City, so many skeletons can be seen in the woods near the city. When the young man was walking, he saw the skeleton of a child. Out of sympathy, he dug a hole and buried the bones. At this time, it became foggy.
Suddenly, he entered "Midsummer Night".
However, he was about to die, and he thought he had entered the afterlife. He walked far along the city until he was exhausted and saw a field of beautiful and shining stars. His wish at that time was to see his mother again. As a result,
When he woke up, he found that he was back in the forest. A lot of the brown skin layer formed by fungi and pollutants had fallen off his body, and he felt energetic.
After recovering his strength, he returned to Brownskin City and told his family and friends about this experience.
At that time, many people witnessed the shedding of brown skin with their own eyes. However, due to the environment of Brown Skin City, as time went by, the newly grown skin of young people showed signs of being parasitized by fungi, so the players in Brown Skin City tried to find a way to remove it.
He moved to another subdivision. What happened next, ordinary people in Brownskin City don't know.
But for a long time afterwards, "Midsummer Night" was the yearning in the hearts of the people of Brownskin City.
"During that time, all the skeletons in the forest were dug up and reburied. No one even dared to do anything bad, just for fear that they would be excluded when the world of 'Midsummer Night' came." The man smiled when he said this, "It's a pity.
After a year or two of searching with no results, and just when everyone was about to give up, a second person came back from 'Midsummer Night'."
"It's a pity that this person was a player and left without explaining anything. He never returned to Brownskin City again."
Xu Huo nodded slightly. To ordinary people, "Midsummer Night" may be a miracle, but as long as players set foot in it, they will know that it is just a copy. The reason why it appears in such a mysterious way is most likely because of the special space.
Under normal circumstances, people who do not hold tickets will be locked in the dungeon only if they accidentally enter the dungeon before the dungeon. The location of "Midsummer Night" fluctuates, and the entrances and exits are also changing. Whether you can enter is more like luck, and
They are almost the same as ordinary people, and players do not have an advantage in terms of number - this looks a bit like a screening process.
However, this was just a passing thought in Xu Huo's mind, and it was completely baseless.
He then asked some more detailed questions, especially the details of the process of encountering the "Midsummer Night Star River" among the local people in District 013.
The man's mouth went dry as he spoke, and he drank the remaining half of the bottle of water before saying: "I know you players, you said this is a dungeon, specially used for you to play."
"What do you think about players?" Xu Huo asked casually.
"Evolved people," the man said in a bad tone, "They seem to have the whole world revolving around them. If they have to talk about the game world, even if everyone lives in the game, there must be something beyond the game, 'Midsummer Night'
That's it. I've inquired and found that this is not how the dungeon swallows people. There must be special forces interfering with the dungeon, allowing only those who should enter to enter."
"What you said makes sense. Not everyone with a ticket came in." Xu Huo agreed.
The man was very surprised and said immediately: "You are different from other players."
"I see that all kinds of people come in. It doesn't necessarily mean that only good people can come in." Xu Huo added.
The man seemed to have figured out this problem a long time ago, "If you could get in by doing good deeds, this place would be overcrowded. Whether it's good or bad, there is a certain reason why 'Midsummer Night' chose him. You see other people are full of evil, maybe he is just
It's a bridge through which 'Midsummer Night' just wants to convey certain information."
Xu Huo smiled and said, "I haven't thought about it from this perspective. What you said is very insightful."
The man waved his hand and looked at Bai Wu, "Even if I can't get out alive, at least let me see Xinghe..."
Xu Huo didn't ask any more questions, gave him another pack of dried meat and a bottle of water and let him go.
Chi Xian came over early, and after waiting for others to leave, he said: "I think most of what he said was polished. Is this old man trying to find trouble with 'Midsummer Night Star River'?"
