What’s Wrong With Seeking Death?

Xu Turan found himself back on the Path of Chaos.

She didn't know how she got here, and guessed that it might be another dream when she was in a coma; what she cared more about was her current state—

different from before. In the past, every time she "logged in", she always stood on that deep path. However, at this moment, she was floating in the air.

...To be precise, it should be "supported" by something and fly in the air.

Xu Tu then touched the bottom bewilderedly, and felt a piece of smooth and wet thing with some curvature, and the surface was a layer of fine fish scales.

That is a fish.

Now she is sitting on a fish, floating above the "Path of Chaos". Below her, there was a pulsating light—Xu Tuoran remembered this light. When she came to the "Path of Chaos" last time, it was precisely because she touched that light that she successfully rose to the "Candle" level of chaos.

…The question is, what is the situation now?

Why is she floating here? What is this one she is sitting on? What should she do next?

Should... move on?

— as if some switch was pressed. At the moment when the idea of ​​"forward" appeared in Xu Turan's mind, the fish under her suddenly moved, its soft pectoral fins stretched in the dark night, swung its long tail, and swooped down suddenly—

Immediately after hanging over the path, he began to swim forward quickly.

God knows, Xu Tuoran is stupid.

There are still a lot of transparent figures crowded on the path, shoulder to shoulder, moving forward in a hurry. Xu Tueran rode a fish past their heads, leaving a large number of people behind in a blink of an eye—like a bully krypton gold player.

...Don't say it, this feels pretty awesome.

The initial astonishment passed, Xu Tuoran gradually got used to it, and even enjoyed it a bit. Although there are still question marks in my heart, but—whatever, it's all here.

Xu Tuoran just sat on the back of the fish relaxedly, watching it move forward.

Starting from the position of the light spot, after swimming for an unknown amount of time, a wrought iron gate appeared in front of them—behind the gate there was a monster staring at it. As soon as they approached, sharp claws immediately pierced out from the gap of the iron gate. Hook's nails were stained with dried blood.

The big fish was not afraid, and forced the monster away with a long roar, smashed open the gate, and rushed over - the gate closed quickly after they passed, Xu Turan turned his head in a daze, and found that the monster didn't care about them anymore, Instead, continue to guard the door to stop the next person who approaches.

Like a faithful doorman.

She was stunned for two seconds, then turned her gaze back to the front. The path in front of her became more rugged, and the number of people traveling with her became less and less. The whole atmosphere felt more and more bleak and gloomy, and there were faint and strange calls from the shadow forest on both sides.

Xu vainly looked around curiously, but the fish didn't stop for a moment. After swimming forward for a while, another cluster of light appeared in front of Xu Tuoran—this cluster of light was bigger and brighter. You can feel the warmth just by looking at it. The fish carried Xu Tuoran forward, and she instinctively stretched out her hand, her fingertips brushing against the light ball.

...this is the "lamp".

She realized it naturally, even though she didn't receive any prompts in her mind.

The fish took her from the realm of "candle" to the realm of "lamp". He also helped her touch the light cluster representing the "lamp".

And it's still going. Xu Turan raised her head, and saw another wrought iron gate looming not far away—if she guessed right, passing through that gate should be the domain of "Torch"...

At this moment, the fish suddenly shook violently.

Xu Tuoran: "...?"

"Hello? Hello? Are you okay, you-hey!"

Before the words were finished, the fish suddenly slanted up into the sky like a frenzy, and then shook its head and tail for a while. Xu Tuoran was just sitting on it, without any tools in his hands. As soon as it shook, Xu Tuoran slipped off the smooth fish's back almost instantly, and fell heavily——

The moment his body fell to the ground, Xu Tuoran heard two "clicks" clearly.

In the next second, she suddenly opened her eyes.

Rumu is a familiar person.

"Feifei..." She subconsciously opened her mouth, and felt something was wrong after she finished speaking.

Why is Yang Buqi's face underneath Feifei? ?

Weird... Am I still dreaming?

"..." Yang Buqi was obviously speechless, but the time was urgent, and he didn't have time to say anything, so he kept covering Xu Tuoran's forehead with his hands, and said nervously, "Look again? Do you know who I am?" ? Are you still in your head? Your forehead is so hot..."

Xu Tuoran: "..."

She opened her mouth to speak, but her mind was dizzy, and she just said incoherently: "I just fell from above... My leg was broken..."

"Legs?" Yang Buqi immediately touched her knee, "It's all right, your legs are all right... Xu Tuoran? Xu Tuoran?!"

Before he finished speaking, he saw Xu Tuoran's head drooping to the side, and fell asleep again.

Yang Buqi: ...!

He patted Xu Tuoran's face nervously, but he couldn't wake him up again. The door was pushed open, and Pu Han appeared at the door with a pale face.

"What's the situation? I heard you screaming and screaming when I got to the stairs..."

"Her situation is not right." Yang Buqi's eyes darkened, "When will this domain end?"

"Hurry up. In another twenty or thirty seconds." Pu Han said, raising the silver sealing box with his right hand, "After all, the Lord has been trapped. From now on, just wait for the remaining influence to dissipate."

"Why is it taking so long?" Yang Buqi closed his eyes and continued to try to wake Xu Tuoran.

It was not long ago that they successfully sealed the body of Haunted House No. 71—just like the previous plan, after completing the charging preparation of the sealing box, they attracted Haunted House No. 71 into the time segment, closed the door and beat the dog.

Because Xu Tueran is not around, the matter of attracting the No. 71 body can only be handled by Pu Han. Fortunately, as a Hui class, he is still a very weak and omniscient Hui class. His attraction to No. 71 is actually stronger than Xu Tueran , the whole process is considered a surprise.

The moment No. 71's body was pressed into the sealed box, the space-time fragments in the basement shattered layer by layer. However, it will take some time for the entire domain to collapse. Yang Buqi set off immediately, searched for Xu Tuoran all over the room, finally found the study room, and saw her lying on the ground motionless with blood spurs, almost flying out of her soul.

What's more, she had obviously taken the medicine, and she had been "cured" for so long...but she didn't show any signs of waking up.

Yang Buqi became more and more anxious. Seeing that the situation was not right at the door, Pu Han swayed in and took a look. After seeing the set of runes that Xu Tuoran had drawn on the floor and the cabinet, his face changed slightly.

On the rune representing "repression", there is a shriveled yellow eyeball. Pu Han stared at it for a while, then pointed out: "Speaking of which, I felt something was wrong when I confronted that big fish just now..."

Yang Buqi:?

"Its power is not complete. It seems that it has been weakened before it fights with us—but the whole process will not be so smooth."

Pu Han said, and smiled: "It's quite strange, isn't it?"

"..." Yang Buqi's heart skipped a beat. Knowing it was futile, he still moved his body and put one hand on the cabinet behind Xu Tuoran—just blocking the conversion rune.

"What... did you 'see'?" He hesitated for a while, and whispered.

"I'm very weak now, and I can't see anything." Pu Han said quietly, "And what I 'see' doesn't matter at all. The important thing is whether others can see it."

After speaking, he sat down tiredly against the wall, closing his eyes as if resting. Yang Buqi thought for a moment, reached out his hand as if making up his mind, picked up Xu Tuoran from the ground, and carefully placed him on the clean sofa next to him, then cut his hand, stained with blood, on the rune that Xu Tuoran had drawn Quickly smear on top.

As Pu Han said, it didn't take long before the entire domain began to collapse—Yang Buqi carried the unconscious Xu Turan on his back, dragged the limp Pu Han to the second floor, and took away the still sleeping Xu Tuan. Xu's adoptive brother, on the way, also packed and hid all the spiritual objects that Xu Tuoran had left in the house. After much difficulty, they dragged their family and bags all the way out of the gate. Looking around, the sun was shining brightly outside the gate, and tomorrow was hanging high.

Looking back, I saw that the number on the house plate peeled off automatically, revealing the real number below—No. 132.

…Later, Yang Buqi found out that the house Xu Tueran lived in was presumably parasitized by Haunted House No. 71 long before she moved in.

For some reason, it quietly descended on this folk house, overlapped its own "domain" with it, and gradually controlled Brother Xu's activities in the house.

However, its direct control is limited to the house. Once the person leaves the door, the controlled person is still free, but the memory about the house will be distorted and rationalized. Xu Tuoran was only a little short of being controlled. Fortunately, she noticed the existence of the monster in time and cut the thread at the back of her neck.

Xu Tuoran's adoptive brother was sent to the hospital. Because Yang Buqi had dealt with it for him in advance, nothing serious happened. Afterwards, a special person went to the hospital to deal with the aftermath. After confirming that he was not contaminated, he was hypnotized directly to avoid leaving any psychological shadow.

Yes - specialist.

After all, capturing Haunted House No. 71 was a major event, and an advanced sealing box was used. After the domain was officially put into operation, it also attracted the attention of surrounding ability users. When they came out, there was still a group of people outside who were nervously observing.

They can't hide it, and they can't hide it. But no matter what, there are some things that must never be known to outsiders.

Pu Han knew that Yang Buqi didn't like to lie, so he took over all the explaining work, and only said that Feifei liked Xu Tuoran, so he took Feifei to visit her during the vacation, and made an appointment with Yang Buqi on the way. , Accidentally discovered the trace of the haunted house No. 71. Because Xu Tuoran has the quality of "Snow White", he successfully fascinated No. 71, weakened its aggressiveness, and bought time for them to act.

According to the plan, Yang Buqi led the haunted house No. 71 outside, and he and Xu Tuoran took the opportunity to enter the time segment to complete the charging of the sealing box, and finally attracted No. 71 to complete the seal.

Therefore, the runes in the room were all drawn by Yang Buqi, and only a large number of defensive runes were drawn. Anyway, the Charity Institute will not really check the blood, as long as they can give a plausible explanation.

Of course, he also deliberately erased all the parts about summoning evil things, and only said that those evil things appeared by himself, and they picked them up and used them-after all, summoning evil things would definitely be troublesome. It's fine if Xu Tuoran is still in a coma, he himself will definitely have another ideological and moral education.

As for Xu Tuoran's immortal pen and a bunch of supernatural items. Pu Han didn't even mention it. Yang Buqi transferred them to his residence ahead of time, and covered the related aura with his own props, so he successfully concealed it and escaped the on-site inspection afterwards.

In the past, Yang Buqi would never cooperate with this kind of extreme dishonesty. Even if he did, he would at least have to struggle for a while. But this time, he didn't resist at all, he just did what Pu Han said. After the matter is settled, go to the ward to see Xu Tuoran.

All the finishing work is actually very fast, adding up to less than two days. But what worries Yang Buqi is that during these dozens of hours, Xu Tuoran has never been truly sober.

She was placed in a ward inside the charity home. Fever sometimes occurs, but the fever subsides quickly. Occasionally, he would wake up, say something nonsense, and then close his eyes again.

Yang Buqi carefully identified what she said. She tossed and turned, either saying "leg hurts" or "I want to go".

No one could see what was going on. Yang Buqi had guesses in his heart, but he didn't dare to mention them, so he could only go there from time to time, using his abilities to heal her, hoping to be of some use.

The visit ended that day, and when he was leaving the ward, he happened to bump into Pu Han coming from the other end of the corridor. The two looked at each other, Pu Han gave a subtle wink, and walked past Yang Buqi. Yang Buqi hesitated for a moment, turned around and followed, and followed him all the way to the depths of the corridor.

Pu Han looked around to make sure there was no one around and monitoring, Fang said: "Are you still awake?"

"Yeah." Yang Buqi pursed his lips, "Do you know what's going on?"

"I wasn't sure before. I probably understand now." Pu Han let out a breath, and leaned lazily against the wall, "Actually, you know it in your heart, right? Her state at that time, and those runes..."

Yang Buqi: "..."

He looked away and didn't speak.

In fact, he was just guessing—although it was unlikely, Xu Tuoran was leaning on the conversion rune at the time, and there were parts of Haunted House No. 71 in the rune array. When he rushed over, the entire rune circle was in motion, and the yellow eyeball was deflated...

What Xu Tuoran drew was a whole set of runes. Suppressing, imprisoning, defending, absorbing... the last conversion rune, it plays the role of energy conversion. Except that Xu Tuoran "absorbed" that eyeball, Yang Buqi couldn't think of any other explanation.

Because of this, he kept silent about the truth about Xu Tuoran's coma. He knew very well that compared to Xu Tuoran's safety, the higher-ups would definitely focus on "she absorbed the energy of Haunted House No. 71". The impact of the accident five years ago is still there, and the organization's style is now more conservative. If they know about such a sensational incident, they may respond in a certain way.

What's more, in terms of life orientation, he actually already has a torch rank. No one who is higher than him in this tendency is currently in the organization. Pu Han's omniscience is at the top. Since neither of them has discovered it yet, the others are even less likely.

During this time, he was not only observing Xu Tuoran's state, but also waiting for Pu Han's reply. Fortunately, this time Pu Han finally stopped being a riddler—

"I've actually done something like her before." He said to Yang Buqi, "Do you still remember my crazy jump five years ago? It's almost the same method as she used."

Yang Buqi: …

Although I always hope that you can speak directly, but are you a little too direct?

Yang Buqi opened his mouth, and it took him a while to find his own voice: "You mean, you also absorbed those... certain, abominable things..."

"Energy." Pu Han said, "Yes. But the runes I used at that time were much more refined than hers. The absorbing and converting parts were all improved, and several purification steps were added in the middle..."

No wonder I never found any information on this matter. Yang Buqi silently thought that this method of upgrading is indeed a crazy jump on the high-level people's thunder.

He remembered one more thing: "Then you were still sick for a year..."

"Side effects." Pu Han said, "Fortunately, we got away with No. 71 in time this time. Xu Tuoran probably didn't absorb too much... But no matter what, she's probably feeling very uncomfortable right now."

Yang Buqi clenched his fingers unconsciously: "I heard her say that her leg hurts. But her leg is actually fine..."

"She's not talking about the legs in reality." Pu Han gave him a funny look, thought for a while, and then asked, "Do you still remember what the upgraded place in your dream looked like?"

Yang Buqi was stunned, silent for a moment, and said: "Generally speaking, I shouldn't remember."

"That is to say, you actually remember." Pu Han shrugged, "Coincidentally, I do too."

He turned around and scratched on the glass window with his finger: "Each direction has an independent 'server'. Each server is divided into several areas such as firefly candles and torch lights... Each area has a door Separated, that is to say, except for the initial 'Firefly', there are two front and back doors for other areas."

"And in each area, there is a ball of light... enter a new area, find this ball of light, and touch it. This completes the 'upgrade' in the usual sense."

"Usually?" Yang Buqi frowned, "What do you mean?"

"It means that this statement is actually very one-sided." Pu Han said bluntly, "Have you come into contact with the rank mechanism in the game? Each major rank has several small ranks... It's not so detailed here, but the reality is almost."

"For example, I am now in the realm of the 'lamp' level, and I have come into contact with the light group, and I have been promoted to the 'lamp' level. But this is actually just the beginning-I must continue to go down and find the door leading to the '' door, and push it open. Only then can it be considered as a complete 'light' level. Only then can it be qualified to explore the next level."

"This is why some people, even though they are at the same level, show great differences in strength." Pu Han finally concluded, "The difference between them is actually the difference between the 'light group' and the 'back door'." Duan Lu. The closer to the door, the stronger. The one who has already pushed the door is stronger than the one who cannot push the door.”

Yang Buqi silently digested this passage, seemed to understand something, looked at Pu Han thoughtfully: "Then you..."

"At that time, I flew directly from the light-level area to the hui-level area as if I had krypton gold." Pu Han said honestly, "but just after I touched the light group that symbolizes the hui-level, I fell down and fell. It's a puddle of mud."

"Ah?" Yang Buqi was taken aback. "what?"

"You heard me right, it's just a puddle of mud. And it's mud that still retains consciousness." Pu Han shrugged, "You should have seen me sick, right? In fact, during that time, as long as I fell asleep, I would Will go back to the road to upgrade... lying on the side of the road like a puddle of rotten meat, unable to move in pain."

"Thinking about it now, this should be regarded as a punishment mechanism. A punishment for opportunistic people."

"But I know, I have to move—I can't keep lying there. Once I give up, I'm really done. So is Feifei. I have to find that door, crawl through it, and push it open..."

Yang Buqi's eyes sank, he paused for two seconds, and asked, "What about you now? Have you completed the real upgrade?"

"Frankly speaking, no." Pu Han smiled wryly, "I crawled and crawled for almost a year, and finally reached that door. But I couldn't push that door open, no matter what..."

Therefore, in the dream space about upgrading. He was still in a miserable state of messy flesh and blood.

The good news is that the pain in his body is fading as he gets closer to the gate. It can even squirm with great experience, at a speed comparable to that of a scallop.

When he touched the door, he also fully woke up. Although he is still a sick man, he can run, jump and curse at people.

"Speaking of which, I really have to thank you." Pu Han finally said, "Your treatment at that time was actually effective...at least it made me feel less painful."

Yang Buqi nodded thoughtfully, and took a deep look at him: "Thank you, too, for being willing to tell me this."

He could guess that whether it was the truth about Pu Han's upgrade or what happened to him in the upgrade dream, it was a very bad memory for Pu Han himself.

According to his character, he would never be willing to say this to other people-but now, he told himself all of it.

He knew that he was worried about Xu Tuoran's situation, so he brought up these things again...Although to be honest, after hearing what he said, he became more worried, but no matter what, Pu Han must have good intentions...

"Don't think too much. I'm just afraid that you won't be able to hold your breath and report Xu Tuoran's matter to your superiors. Let me explain to you first, so that you can know what's going on." Pu Han seemed to see what he was thinking, and Pu Han was indifferent. Shrugging, "If my prediction is correct, she will wake up this time with a light level, or the top of the light level—think about it, what is the concept of this upgrade speed?"

Dingge Deng level, has already defeated most of the people in the Tzu Chi Institute in terms of level.

Yang Buqi himself is considered to be extremely talented, and it actually took more than half a year for his life orientation to rise to the level of light. Not to mention foreknowledge. As for Xu Tuoran, from Yingying to Deng, there was nothing for two weeks.

Yang Buqi: …

"You should have seen it too. That girl is very special, very special—this kind of special, if it was five years ago, it is estimated that there is still room to fly. But in this atmosphere, it is absolutely impossible. She will be targeted of."

Pu Han continued indifferently: "I'm not afraid of making fun of you when I say it. As a person, I have two principles. The first is not to betray humans, and the second is not to betray Feifei. Since Feifei thinks that the girl's secret should be protected, this If it doesn't conflict with the first point, then I must be on Feifei's side."

"Yang Buqi, what about you?"

He looked at Yang Buqi seriously. The latter was silent for a moment and looked away.

"You have been trying to tie me and Xu Tuoran together from the very beginning. Now, can I have any other answer?"

Yang Buqi spoke unwillingly. Pu Han stared at him for a while, then smiled slightly.

"That's good. I was worried that you wouldn't cooperate. I even left a photo..."

Yang Buqi: "...?"

"Just the one with the hand on your head." Pu Han said lightly, "Fortunately, it seems that you won't need it."

"...You are all boring." Yang Buqi glanced at him angrily, turned and left.

It was lunch time. Yang Buqi kept walking, against the crowd, and turned back to Xu Tuoran's room.

In the room, Xu Tuoran was still asleep. Yang Buqi sat on the edge of the bed, thought for a while, and tentatively put his hands on her knees, the palms of which shone with white light.

The leg hurts... He silently thought, although he didn't know how much it hurt, but this way, it should be better, right?

at the same time.

within the dream.

Xu Tuoran propped his arms sideways on the ground and exhaled heavily.

She can't remember how long she's been crawling down this path - her leg broke after falling off the fish's back, and it hurts like a head exploded. But no matter what, she couldn't get out of this space...

Unable to exit. It's like being trapped in a nightmare from which you can't wake up.

There weren't any usable tools nearby, and the broken leg couldn't be attached. The only way he could think of was to drag his injured leg forward.

Xu Tueran looked at the wrought iron gate that was still more than ten steps away, gritted his teeth, and continued to move forward with a pale face—it was strange to say, but at some point, the pain in her leg subsided a little, which made her a little It feels lighter.

She didn't know if she was numb from the pain or what, but took advantage of this momentum to speed up and climb forward. After much difficulty, he finally climbed to the door with both hands abruptly.

Xu Turan only felt that his whole body was about to weaken, but he instinctively stretched out his hand forward. A monster stretched out its claws from the gap in the iron door, and she opened it.

"—Get out!" She had a rare temper, and her voice was somewhat severe.

Even she herself didn't realize that the growl sounded like the roar of a wild beast.

As if under an invisible coercion, the monster actually retracted its hand, as if it was frightened.

Xu Tuoran didn't care about it, and pushed open the door in front of him with his last strength. The moment he pushed it open, he felt a white light flash in front of him—

[Congratulations, you have obtained 400 death points. 】

[Congratulations, you have successfully completed an orientation upgrade. 】

[Current Quality: Crazy Rabbit]

[Current Level: Chaos: Lamp / Beast: Firefly. 】

Afterwards, a large block of text popped up, and at a glance, it was nothing more than a description of the relevant skills after upgrading—same as what I saw before, after "Blizzard" is upgraded to the light level, except that it can automatically affect the non-human beings below and below In addition, an active control effect of 0.75 seconds has been added. However, after "Unfortunate Rabbit Leg" is upgraded to the light level, it is not controlled, but also increases the damage effect.

In addition, she also saw the "Entrance Ticket to the Natural Disaster Cemetery" and the "3000 Steps to the Natural Disaster Cemetery" that she had obtained. The latter is very strange, saying that it can be used for natural disasters/prediction/eternal night/beasts, which made Xu Tuoran think that he had two more tendencies unconsciously.

However, upon closer inspection, no.

The only explanation is that the usable range of this step coupon has nothing to do with her actual aptitude. This itself is a step coupon that can be used in all four orientations—as for why these four orientations are selected, Xu Tuoran is not clear.

There was more content flooding into her mind, but her mind was so buzzing that she really didn't have time to look at it carefully. She hurriedly waved all these away, and opened her eyes suddenly—

There is a white ceiling in front of you.

Xu Tuoran blinked blankly and wanted to sit up. The person who was lying beside the bed straightened up suddenly, with sleepy eyes: "What's wrong?"

Xu Tuoran: "..."

She looked at Yang Buqi who was sitting by the bed, then at the top of his head, and exhaled.

A normal Yang Buqi. It seemed that he had really woken up.

There is a warm feeling in the legs. She moved her eyes, only to realize that her lap was not covered with a quilt. Yang Buqi's hand was hanging above, emitting white light.

On the other side, Yang Buqi finally came to his senses, and just about to say something, his gaze followed Xu Tuoran's line of sight, and he withdrew his hand as if he had just woken up from a dream.

"...Then what, the effect will not be very good through the quilt." He explained a little nervously, "You keep saying that your legs hurt, so I just want to see if this is helpful..."

Xu Tuoran: "It's useful."

"Huh?" Yang Buqi didn't react.

"Very useful." Xu Tuoran nodded earnestly, and slightly hooked the corner of his lower lip, "Thank you."

"..." Yang Buqi was stunned for a moment, and then he felt relieved, "It's good that it's useful. How do you feel now?"

"It's okay? It's just a little dizzy, chest tightness, nausea, like motion sickness..." Xu Tuoran felt it carefully and described it. Yang Buqi nodded, suddenly took out his mobile phone, and quickly typed a few lines on it.

"Your brother sent a message to ask about you. Do you think it's okay for me to reply like this?"

He said, and handed the phone screen to Xu Tuoran, but saw two lines of words on it: [When someone asks, just say that you took too much medicine I gave you. Don't mention a single word about runes, if someone asks, just say you don't know, remember? 】

Xu Tuoran: "...?"

She glanced at Yang Buqi in surprise, pondered for a while, and nodded. Yang Buqi took back his phone and deleted the content. After Xu Tuoran said this, he remembered something instead: "Well, how is my brother?"

"It's okay, I've gone back to work. We hypnotized him, making him think he had food poisoning." Yang Buqi said, "But you've been in a coma for a long time. He actually cares about you and keeps asking you. Happening…"

"Ah?" Xu Tuoran was startled, "How long have I been in a coma?"

Yang Buqi took a deep look at her: "It's been almost four days now."

Xu Turan: ...

How long?

Xu vainly was shocked.

Seeing her like this, Yang Buqi didn't know whether to tell her, according to Pu Han's prediction, she would actually faint for a week...

"Oh, by the way, let me tell you some good news." Seeing her shock, Yang Buqi hurriedly said, "Your brother asked me to tell you that your admission result is...it's A University. Department of Finance. Super good The one. The notice hasn’t arrived yet, but the online results have come out.”

—How about it, isn’t it a surprise?

Xu Tuoran: "..."

ah?

Finance... If I remember correctly, I seem to have to learn mathematics?

So what, why don't I go back and continue climbing... She thought silently, and suddenly realized something was wrong.

"Wait a minute." She looked at Yang Buqi strangely, "When did you have such a good relationship with my brother?"

"..."

Yang Buqi fell into silence.

It doesn't count as a good relationship, but Xu's brother needs someone to take care of it, and it happens that Yang Buqi and Xu Turan have a good relationship, so it is logical that he takes over.

Not long after Xu Tueran woke up, someone came to question her. Because of the confession made beforehand and Pu Han's cover, it was easy to deal with it, and moved back to my home that afternoon.

In fact, she was still not feeling well, and she felt her brain shaking when she walked. But she really didn't want to stay in a mental hospital. The house in Xingxing Park has been tidied up, and she still chooses to live there, but this time, she is the only one in the house.

The adoptive brother has already flown to another place. Xu Tuoran didn't want to ask for a nurse, so Yang Buqi could only go to have a look if he had nothing to do. Came here again this day, and while helping to sweep the floor, asked about a book I gave Xu Tuoran before.

"Which book? Advanced Mathematics or Linear Algebra?" Xu Tuoran said while scribbling and drawing on the book, "I'm not in the right mind now, so why don't you show me these? What's your intention?"

"Just to let you familiarize yourself with it in advance...and I'm not asking about this book." Yang Buqi laughed, "Before Pu Han asked me to give you a book, saying that I can take it back today."

"Oh, this is the book about runes, right?" Xu Tuoran finally came to his senses, and took out a copy of "Detailed Explanation of Advanced Runes" from under his pillow—this book was self-printed, and the cover was extremely rough.

"I read it, but I only looked at the pictures inside. I felt dizzy just looking at those small characters." Xu Tuoran said helplessly—she is really dizzy now, retching at every turn, like a concussion.

"Oh, it's okay." Yang Buqi said, "He said, this book is not for you, but for your pen."

Xu Tuoran: "...?"

? ? ? !

She turned her head to look at her desk, there was a row of silver packaging on it, and there was a silver pen case, the pen of the pen fairy was being placed in it.

Since Xu Tuoran moved back to Xingxing Park, Yang Buqi returned all those supernatural items, including the pen of the pen fairy—it's strange to say, I don't know whether it was because too much energy was drawn when he was in the domain, or because he was affected by it. After receiving some greater stimuli, the pen has been in a listless state ever since it returned to Xu Tuoran's side. Even if you ask it a question, it will only give a short answer without any vitality.

However, in the past two days, she suddenly felt as if she had been beaten with blood, writing lyrics in the air when she had nothing to do... Xu Tuoran recalled it carefully, and finally remembered that two nights ago, when she woke up in the middle of the night, she had indeed seen the pen Standing in the middle of the opened pages, it stands silent, seemingly very deep.

Yang Buqi smiled, opened the book, pointed to a certain line, and handed it to Xu Tuoran.

Xu Tuoran looked at it intently, and unconsciously read aloud: "The seal is linked... It takes blood to unseal it... and only one person's blood is needed. The unsealed person must follow his personal wishes..."

Um? one person?

Xu Tueran hurriedly looked at the picture next to it. It was a very complicated set of runes - exactly the same as the one on the pen.
