Doomsday Wonderland Chapter 1654: The price of principles
Lin Sanjiu could not forget that scene for a long time.
She had heard the saying before that if there was anything worth living for in the world, it would be beauty. When Yu Yuan’s memoirs emerged from the churning gray fog, she suddenly remembered Got this sentence.
It was a black sea under heavy rain, breaking through the dense fog. The dark waves rose high from the gray fog, wrapped in a frightening power that shattered the frame of the world, roaring and surging in the silence. , as if tens of millions of anger arise from the depths of the universe, sweeping away any satisfaction that people have in their own existence - the black sea is like the destruction and judgment of the dark world weighing heavily on their heads. If there is a kind of beauty that comes from the extreme, then There is no greater beauty than destruction.
Lin Sanjiu stood in a daze at the edge of the city, trembling unexplainedly as he watched the Black Sea rise, sink, and approach his head in the thick fog in the blink of an eye. For a moment, he actually forgot who he was.
"Memories often change forms, especially after being triggered by others." Ah Quan's words woke her up from the state of being possessed, "I turned around where he was. Come here and show it to you."
When Lin Sanjiu looked back at the Black Sea, he found a small figure among the waves of different shades of ink-like color. From a distance, it seemed to be Yu Yuan.
When that piece of memoir met the city, and the two connected with each other, it no longer seemed like the endless angry sea pressing down from the sky, and lost its soul-shuddering beauty; it was narrow and full of The smoky city streets are like a sea with rolling waves under the black rain. Yu Yuan is bobbing in the sea in the distance, his shadow as small as a black dove falling into the water.
"I can pause the memoirs," Ah Quan and Lin Sanjiu were standing at the junction of the narrow alley and the sea. He explained: "As soon as you step over, all the progress of the memoirs will be If stopped, the memoirs will temporarily disappear and return to the original state before it was engraved in the memory. At that time, he can also be awakened. To be honest, it is not difficult to be immersed so deeply that he has completely forgotten his identity. It's rare, otherwise generally speaking, when the memoirs stop, people should wake up."
Lin Sanjiu was about to take a step when she suddenly understood the meaning of his words. "I...I have to walk over to wake him up? Can't you bring him here?"
Aquan turned his head to look at her and smiled.
"I can control the memoirs, but I can't control the people in them." He seemed to fully understand what Lin Sanjiu was thinking, and replied with a smile: "For example, if I wanted you to leave just now, I wouldn't be able to control the people in it." We can't force you out."
In other words, once she decides to wake up Yu Yuan, she has to take the initiative to leave Ah Quan's urban memoirs. After leaving, whether Ah Quan will stay where he is...that is a question.
Lin Sanjiu bit her lips and hesitated for a moment.
His intentions may be many, but even if he guesses and steps on a certain possibility, it is actually meaningless.
This is how things are in the world: every situation has potential limitations and risks. When a person is at a crossroads, how to choose and where to go, even if you have thought about it in advance, you cannot predict and control the results afterwards.
Of course, she can catch Ah Quan first, and then everything will be easy to say.
But Lin Sanjiu was unwilling - no matter what the consequences, she hoped to act according to her own principles.
"I destroyed your memoirs, really hoping to force out some truth and get my friends back. Meeting you is really unexpected." She glanced at Ah Quan and said, "Then the other one... …”
"I will transfer his memoirs now," Ah Quan replied immediately. After a pause, he looked at Lin Sanjiu and asked, "So, do you want to go there?"
This question hung in the air for a moment.
Lin Sanjiu turned back and smiled at him, then raised her foot and crossed the dividing line between memoirs.
She thought she would suddenly fall into the water, and was even prepared to swim over. Unexpectedly, when she fell one step further, the sea water immediately receded, and her footsteps landed on an indescribable ground. In terms of texture: it’s like clouds and mist can suddenly support weight, light and loose, invisible but firm.
Lin Sanjiu glanced back and saw Ah Quan still looking carefree, smiling and pointing in the distance - she turned around and rushed towards Yu Yuan.
"This is irrational behavior,"
It took seventeen seconds for Yu Yuan to calm down after being awakened by her. At this time, he said with a precision and indifference like a scalpel: "If I have been immersed in memories and cannot get out, it will lead to my own consciousness. The disorder has no real loss for you. You saved me, and I am not the Yu Yuan in your memory. But when you leave Urban Memoirs, you lose the only way to check and balance the controller, the possibility of leaving The drastic decrease in sex, no matter which angle you look at it, I can’t understand it.”
After hearing his opinion, Lin Sanjiu couldn't help laughing. She reached out her hand and did something she would never do to a data object: she rubbed Yu Yuan's hair.
"Let's not waste time now," Yu Yuan, still with a straight face, lectured her: "Let's go separately. You go and see if Ah Quan's Urban Memoirs is still there, and I'll go and see Ji Shan. Has Qing Zai’s memoir been transferred here? You have met Ah Quan and can talk to him. It will be more effective for you to go to him than me."
Lin Sanjiu said hello and jumped up from the ground. Now the entire space had returned to its original state, and she could only see a dozen meters away. It was completely impossible to distinguish the shape and direction. She thought for a while, and simply turned around to follow the path she felt was correct. He walked away, shouting: "Ah Quan! If you make a sound, I can't see the way back."
After walking for a while, her shout seemed to be finally heard by Ah Quan; in the distance, a shout came from an invisible distance: "I'm over here."
Lin Sanjiu realized that she was running in the right direction~IndoMTL.com~ He breathed a sigh of relief and ran a few steps faster, but his pace gradually slowed down.
The reason is simply that the sound was too far away.
She had walked back quite a distance, but Quan's voice still sounded as subtle as a thread in the wind.
"I'm sorry," Ah Quan said distantly.
Lin Sanjiu stopped.
"...Have they separated?" When she asked, she was not surprised at all - this was the price she was willing to pay to get her friends back.
"Yes."
A Quan's voice came through from the formless chaos, and said: "I took over the memoir where the other child was, and you can find him soon. I'm very grateful that you didn't take action against me just now, You should also thank yourself, because if you meet me, you will fall into the endless memories of what I have seen. Although I think you are a good person, I can't risk getting you back. I serve as this copy As the creator and manager of people's memories, I have a responsibility to fulfill."
