Xu Yi didn't say anything for a while, but continued to move forward step by step.

Indeed, although he can speak, it does not mean that he can speak casually.

He must focus more faith on the mask.

Zhong Xueran has long been determined to die. She doesn't think there is anything terrible about death, but... she is a little regretful.

It's a pity that I have known Xu Yi for so long, and now I barely saw the other one.

But just now I saw the other side of Xu Yi, they are about to die.

Also... I'm a little sorry for Xu Yi's last desperate efforts.

Although all this has no effect.

Dense and mottled memories flashed through Zhong Xueran's mind.

In the past, she never wanted to think about those scenes.

Her origin and the reason why she entered this Game are different from everyone else.

[Three Pure Ones Bell],[Single Pure Bell].

The former is Permanent Item and the latter is One-Time Item.

The functions are exactly the same.

Although everyone is a little strange, they don't know why.

Only Zhong Xueran himself knows... [Three Pure Ones Bell] is a strange inheritance in the bloodline of the Zhong Family.

And [Single Pure Bell] is the fate of Curse that Zhong Family keeps cutting.

She is different from everyone else. She will be sent into this Game by her family, but she took the initiative to enter this Game in advance.

Every descendant of the Zhong Family will continue this fate.

The only difference is that those in front of her left behind the Zhong Family before entering Ghost Story World.

But this time, she did not obey her mother's marriage arrangement, and ran away from the marriage in a conventional way, and escaped into this terrifying Ghost Story World.

Is it necessary to pass on the bloodline of Curse?

Generation after generation, how many ancestors have been buried Skeletons...

Zhong Xueran doesn't know... but she doesn't want to at all. She doesn't want her descendants to inherit this Fate.

She wanted to completely cut off her lineage.

Daoist family? Subjugate demons?

Ha... what a joke.

There is no Daoism in the world, only experience accumulated with countless blood. Some Ghostly Entity are indeed afraid of bad blood, and some Ghostly Entity are really afraid of strong popularity, but these... are not enough to eliminate them at all, and they can only protect themselves at most.

Zhong Xueran, who was deep in thought, suddenly felt his arm at the crook of his leg trembling.

When she came to her senses, the heavy rain was still falling, and Xu Yi... was still walking forward.

"Xu Yi, let me down."

Zhong Xueran said again.

This time, Xu Yi answered.

His voice seemed to be squeezed out from the cracks in his bones, full of pain.

"Believe... I..."

Three simple words made Zhong Xueran's eyes freeze.

Does this man know what he is talking about?

Nuo Opera Mask has only been used for about a minute. Although he walked out of the yard, it is simply impossible to walk out of Old Town!

But...

Don't know why.

The three words he spoke with difficulty hit Zhong Xueran's heart. Even the sound of wind, rain and thunder was blurred in her ears, leaving only those three words.

"Trust me."

Believe him... What do you believe in him... Does he still have Contingency?

Zhong Xueran subconsciously took out her phone. She blocked the rain with one hand and slid the screen with the other.

She doesn't know anything, she doesn't know what Xu Yi is going to do, and she doesn't know what to do next.

But...Xu Yi hasn't given up yet.

Fu City It is very cold in winter, and it is even colder this night with heavy rain.

But at this moment Zhong Xueran felt that he was surrounded by a ball of scalding fire.

His terrifying will to survive and tenacious perseverance reached her heart through those three words!

She found the taxi app, made a call, and entered a high reward.

Soon, someone took the order.

I don't know if the driver was lucky or unlucky to receive this order.

However, in this terrible weather, Old Town grabbed the extra money order at the first time. I think his survival pressure is not much different from Ghost Story World.

"Okay."

Zhong Xueran glanced at the phone screen and said to Xu Yi, "The driver will arrive in... twenty minutes."

It takes twenty minutes to reach Old Town, which is already very fast for such a rainy day.

But it's still not enough.

Xu Yi What confidence do I have to do this...

Zhong Xueran I can't understand it no matter what.

Even if there are other One-Time Items on him, it is impossible to use them again.

What else could he do?

In the heavy rain, their clothes had already been soaked. Xu Yi could have put Zhong Xueran down long ago, but now he could not make any other movements except holding her mechanically and moving his steps.

Zhong Xueran raised his head and looked at Xu Yi's Nuo Mask through the hazy rain curtain.

The only thing visible on that mask were his eyes.

But at this moment...Xu Yi's eyes have completely lost their sparkle.

What exactly does he want to do?

Zhong Xueran curled up quietly in his arms, completely confused.

But she had a strange feeling.

She has never experienced this feeling since the day she was born.

This is... completely protected, a sense of security.

Zhong Xueran looked at him blankly, suddenly blinked hard and looked away.

Fortunately, there are only dim street lights now, and fortunately it's raining heavily...

Xu Yi's pace is unhurried and unhurried, one step after another.

And the safety time of this mask is less than thirty seconds.

What will he do after taking off the mask?

Zhong Xueran knows that Xu Yi will not do anything without aim, he must have a way.

Yes... he must have a way.

An unprecedented sense of peace of mind surged from the bottom of my heart, even though there were densely packed dead bodies behind me, and even though there was no Escape danger at all.

Twenty seconds.

Xu Yi's steps were still strong, and he stepped on the old stone road, splashing a large amount of water.

Ten seconds.

Xu Yi hugged her, his waist straight, like a precision machine. Even if the time was approaching, he could not disrupt his pace at all.

Nine...

eight...

Seven...

Every step he takes coincides with every second of the final safe time.

Zhong Xueran gradually changed his expression.

No... not right!

Xu Yi He...

5.

Xu Yi didn't stop at all.

4.

He is still moving forward step by step.

3.

Zhong Xueran was struggling and wanted to jump out of his arms, but was held tightly by him and couldn't struggle at all.

2.

Zhong Xueran finally understood what Xu Yi was going to do, and tears came to his eyes.

1.

"No!"

Zhong Xueran shouted sadly.

At this moment, densely packed sharp black nails suddenly came out of the edge of [Nuo Opera Mask] covering Xu Yi's face, and suddenly pierced into Xu Yi's face!

Dark Red's blood was washed down by the rain and slowly flowed down, mixed with the underground sewage, and quickly flowed into the darkness.

Zhong Xueran clearly felt Xu Yi's hand tighten and his pace paused...

But the next moment, he continued to move forward, and continued to move forward.

Looking at the terrifying mask that was firmly attached to Xu Yi's face, Zhong Xueran had already burst into tears.

It was just the heavy rain that prevented Xu Yi from seeing her tears again when she finally regained consciousness.

Zhong Xueran Got it.

From the beginning, Xu Yi never thought about taking off the mask.

This old road is very long. Every second after three minutes, every step he takes, he is walking towards his own death.

But... it is also sending Zhong Xueran in the direction of death.
