"The first task we received," Cobb said word by word, looking deeply at He Xie, "is to take your body and the other shore flower and leave the world immediately after you get the other shore flower“
"With my body?" He Xie frowned.
"Yes, your body." Cobb said, "we don't know why we don't take you, but take your body. If it wants us to kill you, it's obviously an impossible task, so I guess you may die when you get the other shore flower. And we just need to finish the task at a specific time. "
He Xie thought deeply. He thought of what Ying Caihong said before he died - "only the dead can cross the boundary of life and death."
If this sentence is true, then contact the sentence "the other shore flower can connect life and death", that is, when he Xie contacts the other shore flower, he can directly go to another space - the space of the dead through the other shore flower!
This is because he Xie is a dead man.
In this way, he Xie is likely to be sucked into the other shore flower, and then leave a body in place.
But here comes the problem.
According to Cobb's previous statement, Ames was sucked into the other shore flower, leaving no body. Why?
He Xie was suspicious, but he didn't think about it any more. Anyway, he would soon verify the answer to this question himself.
He continued to listen to Cobb.
Cobb began to get weak, and his speech was intermittent and very laborious.
But he insisted and told the whole story again.
In fact, he Xie has guessed a lot of what he said. Now listening to him just confirms his speculation.
However, there are still two things that give he Xie new inspiration and let him have a deeper speculation.
The first thing is Cobb's last urgent task to change their system before that; The second thing is that Andrey and Cobb were forcibly separated and drilled into the two black fog among the flowers on the other side.
The original task of taking away the other shore flower and he Xie's body was changed to directly take away He Xie and the other shore flower.
Changed the body into a man. Why?
According to Cobb, the release time of this task should be when he starts to clean up.
Then the change of this task must be related to He Xie's purification.
Is the system unwilling to completely lose control of He Xie to contact the other shore flower again, or what is the reason?
The two black fog separated from Cobb and Andrey by force and took the initiative to enter the other shore flower. Is it because Cobb and Andrey have no ability to complete the task and lost their use value?
Obviously, Cobb thinks so.
"It uses us, but it never plans to keep its promise!" Cobb roared angrily, "what return value is a scam! When it found that we couldn't complete the task, the bastard ruthlessly abandoned us! I really regret... "
Cobb looked at He Xie with a cry in his eyes: "Oh, I know I'm dead. For the sake of our fighting side by side, if, if you can go to our world, can you see my two children for me? I can't imagine when they lost their mother and learned that their father was also... Oh, God, I can't imagine this! "
Cobb cried bitterly and couldn't help mourning.
He Xie said calmly, "Cobb, with your intelligence, I don't believe you didn't have a chance to be honest with me, but you knew I would die, but you still chose to hide it. From that moment on, all the friendship between us has ceased to exist. "
"I know, I know..." Cobb's eyes darkened a lot. "I just can't leave my two children. I want to live. He, I really regret... "
This is the third time Cobb said "regret" to He Xie, but he Xie knew very well that Cobb regretted not because he failed to live up to his trust, but because he failed to make the right choice, but because he took everyone's life.
"I will seek justice for you and myself." He Xie took Cobb seriously.
"No, you run away." Cobb shook his head. "If you can't live, what's the point of everything? You can't beat it. It's the devil. "
He Xie's mouth was lifted up and his eyes flashed away: "who is not?"
Cobb finally swallowed his last breath in front of He Xie.
He Xie didn't sigh and remember. As he said, if Cobb was given another 10000 choices, he would still choose to betray He Xie without hesitation.
In this case, the so-called involuntarily is just an excuse to safeguard their own interests.
Like he Xie, in the face of the calculation of the system, although he hates it very much, if he chooses 10000 times, he will still choose to bind the system and give himself a hope of resurrection.
Everyone has chosen their own position, so success should be accepted, failure should also be accepted, which is such a simple truth.
The other shore flowers are still emitting light, and there are still terrible scenes of demons dancing below.
What makes he Xie feel strange is that there is no threat to his existence in the underground palace from the flowers on the other side to now.
He is even ready to fight to the death, but this level is not as dangerous as the first three levels.
He Xie now faces two choices.
First, leave the underground palace regardless of everything.
Second, break the boat, move on, completely unlock all the secrets of the underground palace, and - find the system and make a complete end!
With He Xie's style of "living", it is reasonable that he should choose the first way.
After all, he has clearly felt that the system has been completely separated from him, and he has nothing to lose except losing all the skills given to him by the system.
The skills he taught himself, including his internal power, still exist in his body. He can continue to live in this world in a state of neither life nor death until the end.
But he won't!
His "Gou" has always been for the sake of "meticulous" in the future, rather than really "Gou" from now on!
Choose the second way, near death!
But there are signs that this may be He Xie's only chance to defeat the system.
Although this opportunity is very slim, if you miss this time, he Xie will completely lose all hope!
Are you dreaming and fighting?
Or do you live numbly, grow old slowly, fill your heart with regret, and wait to die alone?
He Xie choice——
The latter!
He pushed Cobb's body to a place beyond the reach of the mummies at the other end of the ceiling. Immediately, a flash of determination flashed in his eyes. Without hesitation, he shot down and dived in the direction of Princess Ogu's coffin!
