Doomsday Wonderland

...To be honest, a pastoral-style household fabric sofa placed next to such a luxurious and modern hotel swimming pool looks very inconsistent. If the opponent was not such an old woman, I am afraid Ji Shanqing would have been discovered long ago.

And now, the old lady, who was obviously not very sensitive to the decoration style, beat her knees a few times and slowly let her body sink into the soft sofa cushions - what made people a little concerned was that she should be very light. , it just sunk in a little and then stopped, almost as if it was floating on the surface of the cushion.

The springs in the sofa then made a squeaking sound like a whimper.

The old woman didn't pay attention. She raised her heavy, heavy eyelids and glanced around, seeming to be very satisfied with the current situation.

...Of course Kiyokuru knew why she looked so relaxed.

The guy with the highest combat power and the greatest threat was sitting in the shadow of the corner with his knees in his arms, his head expressionlessly lowered, unable to even make eye contact; and the remaining one, himself, was still Trapped in the form of an animal, he can't use any of his abilities, and his combat power may not be as good as that of a cat.

Except for a great witch who didn't know where she was or whether she was awake, there was no one here who could resist her.

He took a few steps in the direction of the old woman, and when she raised one of her eyelids, he quickly stopped.

"Since I can't do anything to you, let's just talk." Qingjiuru sat down and wrapped his fluffy tail around himself. "What is your purpose? What are you waiting for now?"

The old woman snorted from her nose, obviously not intending to answer at all; she only slowly turned her eyes away and looked at her fingertips.

In the air in front of her fingertips, two rows of subtitles reappeared like faint shadows - after waiting for a while, they suddenly flickered from top to bottom. When they stabilized again, each word was different. , has obviously been refreshed to different content.

Will the content change?

Qingjiu Liu was stunned for a moment, then quickly took the opportunity to move forward two steps and also stared at those weird subtitles.

With his back to him, he had to read the subtitles backwards, so it often took several seconds to recognize a word; even though the old woman took a long time to turn on the subtitles, and Qingjiu Liu was also concentrating on it, she could only clearly see two " "Conditions" and a "consequence" - they are all kinds of and have no trace to follow, as if they are words and phrases randomly picked out from life and put together.

Under the "Conditions" item, it says "When I stepped out with my left foot" and "When I was blinded by dust"; and under the "Consequences" item, Kiyokuru only saw "Loss of memory".

"well,"

The old woman sighed, raised her turbid and white eyes, and stared at a certain point in the distance in a daze - when she was motionless, she didn't look so blurry; she seemed to be really waiting for something. occur.

……What could it be?

Qingjiu Liu glanced at Lin Sanjiu.

She remained as motionless as before, her face buried in the shadows and she couldn't see clearly - looking at her, it seemed like she wished she could shrink into the wall and never see the light of day again.

Cursing in his mind, the red panda slowed down his movements as much as possible, planning to get around the old woman bit by bit.

"You'd better stay where you are," the old woman warned without turning her eyes, staring blankly into the void: "Don't let me feel the need to take action against you. The consequences are a thousand times worse than in animal form. , I happen to have one on hand right now.”

The red panda immediately stopped moving.

The atmosphere on the floor suddenly sank again, falling into a sluggish silence.

After a minute, the old woman's hand lit up with subtitles again - the subtitles were the same as last time, flashing and then refreshing the content; she lowered her eyelids to look at the new subtitles for a while, then turned it off in disappointment.

This time, Qingjiureu seized this short opportunity and hurriedly scanned the area - he couldn't see each word clearly, but as he glanced around, he found that there seemed to be no "Consequences" in the column. The word "die".

The air became silent, like a pool of thick, sticky, stagnant water.

...The time interval between the two subtitles seems to be exactly one minute?

Qingjiuru thought about it for a while. Although he was not sure what the use of this discovery was, he still began to count the seconds silently in his heart.

When he counted almost sixty seconds, the new subtitles appeared from the air once again, as he expected.

Every minute, the old woman's [Concept Collision] content will obviously be refreshed; every time the refresh time is up, she will call out the subtitles to take a look, as if she is looking for something - five or six minutes have passed like this, After the subtitles were refreshed five or six times, the old woman's face finally darkened, and her long and sparse eyebrows were tightly knitted together.

"It's strange, why haven't you come out yet..." the old woman muttered in a low voice. She adjusted her posture impatiently and glanced across the floor again - as if to intimidate someone.

"Old lady," Qingjiuru called out sweetly, and took the opportunity to get closer: "...I see that you have never killed us. Does this mean that your target is not us? In this case, how about we fight against each other? How about a favor? Just say whatever you need, and we'll do whatever we can for you. Cancel the effects on us."

From under her heavy eyelids, the old woman glanced at him - her white eyes trembled, but she said nothing.

"They say a tree has many roots and many people have many old sayings. You are different from ordinary old ladies." The red panda complimented again. "What's your name?"

The old woman moved her thick lips like a catfish, not only did she not announce her name, but she seemed to be full of ridicule. At this moment, her eyelids suddenly opened, and her eyes once again focused on the person who had just appeared at her hand. on the subtitles.

The almost translucent subtitles caught the eyes of two people at the same time.

After all, it was too strenuous to read the characters backwards. Before Qingjiu Liu could recognize the second character, the old woman suddenly said "Ha!", sat up straight, clicked a few times quickly, and put it away. subtitles - when she moved quickly, the body that seemed to be superimposed with thousands of images suddenly became more blurred, and the shadows were so heavy that people could not see clearly; the red panda was dizzy and had to turn his eyes away quickly, and his eyes were just right It landed on the blue cloth sofa behind her, and then she realized something was wrong.

The floral cloth cover covering the sofa was beating violently at an extremely fast speed - as if Ji Shanqing had something to say, but he was trying his best not to let his It was as if a lot of words had accidentally burst out.

By the way, he and the old woman are facing the same direction, so there is no need to read the words backwards...

What did he just see?

As soon as Qingjiuru came up with this idea, he was interrupted by the old woman talking to herself.

"Yes, yes!" She looked happy, apparently not noticing the strangeness of the sofa beneath her. "If you don't want to come, you won't come. If you want to come, come together... Not bad, not bad."

These words made people confused, and even Lin Sanjiu, who was not far away, raised her eyes to look at it - but she quickly buried her head again, as if she was afraid of meeting anyone's eyes.

The red panda didn't have time to figure out what Ji Shanqing wanted to say, and could only watch the old woman's every move - the latter turned half sideways, her eyes kept turning, and finally opened her mouth. The loose and thick skin revealed a smile.

"When I sneeze, all illusions disappear."

The red panda stared at her blankly, not even knowing how to react.

The old woman untied her bun with one hand, and the sparse hair fell down one after another; a lot of it had already fallen off in just one move. She grabbed a bunch of gray and dry hair and gently put it into her nostril, scratched it twice, and suddenly let out a crisp sneeze.

Not only Qingjiu Liu - at this moment, the eyes of Ji Shanqing and Lin Sanjiu were also attracted to the swimming pool in the center.

...The dust, dirt, and garbage accumulated over the past two years seemed to have been gently stroked by a hand and wiped away. They gradually disappeared like floating bubbles, revealing the rippling blue underneath. The clear, shining gentle water waves are like a soft huge sapphire, perfectly embedded in the swimming pool.

Looking at this pool of water, you can feel the coolness when it splashes on your skin; this piece of dazzling blue amber gently wraps up the motionless cheetah with its eyes closed in the pool. .

With just one glance, several people realized the identity of this sleeping cheetah.

Even though the color is somewhat distorted underwater, the golden fur on the cheetah is exactly the same color as the hair of the great witch: it looks like it has turned into gold and flows down softly.

Lin Sanjiu stared blankly for a few seconds, then bit her lip and stood up - she seemed to want to take a step out, but her steps were too heavy to move, and she still stood there frozen for a while.

The old woman didn't care what a few viewers thought.

She turned her head and glanced at the water, and smiled sarcastically. The red panda was frightened, and it was already too late to pounce; the old woman's voice slowly and dryly echoed in the air: "...when the time changes, At four o'clock, you'll never be able to get out of where you are now."

what time is it now?

Qingjiure was stunned and remembered that there was an electronic clock in the room; however, the old woman had obviously calculated the time carefully. He had just turned back and ran two steps when something changed in the pool.

Just like Lin Sanjiu, the cheetah suddenly turned into a human form - the previous effect disappeared, and the great witch, whom she had not seen for a long time, seemed to be in a dream, floating gently under the water, her soft blond hair flowing down her face. The water waves rose and fluttered slightly.

"Great," the old woman grinned, "...my mission is accomplished."

"You... have a grudge against the great witch?"

"The Great Miko?" Unexpectedly, the old woman looked startled, and then suddenly realized: "Oh, her name is the Great Miko? I don't know her."

"Then why did you-"

"Although I don't know her, I know that she is in the starry sky of consciousness, asking about things she shouldn't ask about." On the old woman's face, layers of skin hung down, and with her satisfied smile , shaking into ghost images. "Since she is willing to stay in the starry sky of consciousness, I will let her stay well..."

After saying that, she waved her hand and seemed relieved: "I don't know how long you can survive with this appearance... Although I like to watch it and usually stay to see it, I have to leave today."

Before she finished speaking, she held up the handle with one hand and was about to stand up.

But as soon as she exerted her strength, the color of the old woman's face suddenly changed.

As if she accidentally sat into a deep pit, instead of standing up, her body was "grabbed" by the sofa cushions, sinking deeper into it bit by bit; she was already small, Almost in the blink of an eye, half of it was swallowed up by the sofa cushion, leaving only the head and limbs exposed.

"What——" The old woman was shocked and angry, her eyes turned to the extreme in the direction behind her: "You have one more person?"

Although he didn't know why Ji Shanqing chose this moment to suddenly attack, the red panda couldn't care less at the moment. He rushed towards the old woman with a sudden movement; while rushing towards him, he did not forget to shout to Lin Sanjiu: " You use your consciousness to suppress her - you don’t have to come over, hurry up!”

Ji Shanqing no longer hid, and while hugging the old woman hard, he also yelled: "Sister! Help, sister!"

However, Lin Sanjiu just bit her lip, lowered her eyelids, and unknowingly sweat appeared on her forehead.

"Joke," the old woman sneered, "Idiot!"

She cursed, and as the subtitles on her hand lit up, her lips opened and closed rapidly, and the red panda, who had just jumped into the air, suddenly felt his body sink, and for a moment, his limbs fell heavily - "Gudong" , Qingjiu Liu, who was reincarnated as a human again, hit the floor hard.

I wanted to get up again, but I couldn't.

Qingjiuru clenched his back teeth, and for a while there was cold sweat on his forehead - not only on his head, but also on his body, but he couldn't feel it at all now - because the old woman gave him the second [Concept collision], it is "high paraplegia".

The body that had been with him for twenty or thirty years suddenly seemed to be dead, imprisoning his soul so that he could not move. Qingjiure fell to the ground, and a thought suddenly entered his mind that made him involuntarily frightened - —If the old woman really left, how long would he have to lie on the ground like a piece of dead meat before he died?

"Sister!" There wasn't much time left for the gift package. Seeing that the subtitles in the old woman's hand were still there, it was obvious that he was the next target: "You think of a way, we can only rely on -"

Before the word "you" could be uttered, the blue cloth sofa that half swallowed the old woman suddenly flew straight back; just as it flew into the air, the sofa had already disappeared from the field of vision, replaced by a A handsome young man with short hair that floats in the air.

Ji Shan rolled on the ground for a long distance before he stabilized his body; however, before he could get up, it was as if an invisible force chased him up, and then threw him completely. When they reached the wall - the hanging lamp was shaken by the shock, and the gift bags fell in clusters, covering their faces with dust.

Perhaps it was because the old woman hated him so much for catching her, so the "consequences" he suffered were even worse - "being chased and beaten by an inexplicable force."

Lin Sanjiu lowered his head and clenched his hands tightly into fists, but his body seemed to have never been so stiff. The great witch in the pool was like a plucked narcissus, floating unconsciously under the water. . Even though Kiyokuru's eyes were about to burst, he couldn't move an inch - the only gift bag that still had mobility soon coughed up a mouthful of blood in repeated attacks.

The old woman took a deep breath, and a thousand phantoms followed her footsteps and walked towards Lin Sanjiu. He bent down, raised his head to face her downcast face, and smiled closely.

"Stop struggling, you can't beat depression." She watched a drop of sweat drip from the tip of Lin Sanjiu's nose, "...I am invincible. Instead of struggling needlessly, you might as well die. ."

Lin Sanjiu's shoulders shook violently.

"Isn't this a hotel? There must be knives in the restaurant kitchen." The old woman deliberately lowered her voice very softly: "They are very sharp, they are very sharp, you don't have to worry."

The "consequences" she casts are often very serious - if she were not really afraid of her opponent, the old woman would not choose "depression", one of the diseases closest to death, for her opponent.

"sister!"

Ji Shanqing was panting heavily, having just received a heavy blow to his stomach, and was trying to get up with trembling limbs: "Sister, I'm fine, you know me, punches, kicks and the like can't kill me... …Did you hear that?”

The tall woman in the corner lowered her head, UU reading www.uukanshu.net still caged in the shadows.

"Damn..." Seeing that Lin Sanjiu's hope of recovery seemed to be getting smaller and smaller; Qingjiu Liu buried his face in the carpet and murmured a curse at the gift bag: "Why are you stopping her? Instead of acting like now In this case, it is better to just let this old woman go..."

"You, listen to me," Ji Shanqing uttered four words, and immediately swallowed the cry of pain caused by another heavy blow; he took a breath and continued to struggle: "I just said ...Seeing this old woman's ability, there is a consequence, this, this consequence, you are all familiar with it..."

Qingjiuru suddenly raised his head - he could only move above his shoulders now - as if he had been hit by an electric shock, his eyes suddenly widened.

"Oh, it turns out you have seen the consequences of 'schizophrenia'."

The old woman tilted her head and answered with a smile.

Then, as if she had made up her mind, she turned around and walked quickly towards the exit without any hesitation - obviously, she planned to let the four people who were still here to fend for themselves. (To be continued.):
