End of ten days

"I..." Zhang Chenze was startled by Chu Tianqiu's appearance, but he still said calmly, "I will definitely try my best."

Chu Tianqiu left the window, seemingly letting down his guard. He sat in front of Zhang Chenze again, and then said softly: "Lawyer Zhang, you know... we want to survive here, after all. How can I ensure that I don’t go crazy?”

"Going crazy...?"

"Yes." Chu Tianqiu nodded, "We are reborn in this ghost place one after another... Day after day, year after year, what can we do to avoid imagining the "Seven Black Swords"? How strong do we have to be? How can we get rid of "Yu Nian'an"? What can we do to stop eating people, and what can we do to ensure that we are still human?"

Zhang Chenze felt that treating this matter as a "lawsuit" was indeed a bit taken for granted. 🄲

Chu Tianqiu's words seemed to contain some philosophy, but they were also full of madness. The questions he asked one after another left him completely unable to find the direction to answer them.

"Then what do you think we should do?" Zhang Chenze asked.

"The answer is 'lock'." Chu Tianqiu stretched out a finger and tapped the center of his eyebrows, "This damn place will add a 'lock' to everyone, so that we can forget those painful memories and look forward to it." We start from scratch.”

"That's true." Zhang Chenze nodded, "Forget the memory of previous reincarnations... This can be regarded as a protective mechanism."

""Protection mechanism"...?" Chu Tianqiu grinned and smiled very strangely, "What a ridiculous "protection mechanism"? It can only protect the weak, but it will make the strong go crazy... Now "finally" "Yanzhi" people who can be called...how many of them are awake?"

"What you said makes sense." Zhang Chenze nodded, "The more people can get "echoes"...the longer their memory will be preserved, and the more torture it will be."

"So I took the initiative to "lock" myself." Chu Tianqiu said with a smile, "There is a personal "echo" in this land that can lock the memory... Let me start from scratch."

Zhang Chenze was slightly stunned after hearing this: "That person is Qiaoyun...?"

"Unfortunately, no." Chu Tianqiu shook his head, "Qiaoyun is not the "lock", but a "key"."

"Key...?" Zhang Chenze felt that he would soon be unable to keep up with Chu Tianqiu's thoughts. Not only was this man extremely smart, but he also showed obvious signs of madness. It was difficult for normal people to communicate with him.

"I took the initiative to add countless "locks" in my mind. Only Qiaoyun can unlock these "locks". Do you understand?" Chu Tianqiu said.

Only then did Zhang Chenze finally understand: "You mean... Qiaoyun's "echo" is the restoration of people's memories?"

"It can be understood that way." Chu Tianqiu nodded, "But her ability also has drawbacks. It cannot allow everyone to gain memories... Only those who have touched it can..."

Zhang Chenze slowly frowned, still not quite understanding what Chu Tianqiu wanted to express.

"I thought Qiaoyun had lost this ability..." Chu Tianqiu slowly put a bitter smile on his face, "But before I met Qi Xia... I was suddenly affected by a sudden "echo". It restored a lot of memories for me...and this "echo" came from Qiaoyun."

This short sentence almost made Zhang Chenze several times.

\u003c/di\u003e

She felt that her thoughts were blocked every time. She still knew too little about this place.

"It was also on that day that I finally remembered who Qiaoyun was..." Chu Tianqiu smiled and shed tears, "A lot of memory fragments floated in my mind, and I immediately transferred those memories All the fragments were written on the blackboard... I also remembered the man named Qi Xia. "

Zhang Chenze swallowed slightly after hearing this, and then asked tentatively: "Recovering memory... isn't this a good thing?"

"A good thing...?" Chu Tianqiu's smile slowly turned cold, and he bent down and approached Zhang Chenze, "If it is a "good thing"... why should I actively "lock" myself? You know that in my memory, How much despair is there?"

"I……"

"Every day..." Chu Tianqiu's body slowly trembled, as if he was recalling this extremely terrible thing, "My memories are coming from all directions every day... I recall more and more despair every day... ...You tell me this is a "good thing"? Every time I think about a reincarnation experience, I am convinced that "we can't get out"...You tell me this is a good thing? "

"But for those of us...the only weapon we have against them is 'memory'..." Zhang Chenze also slowly showed a sad expression, "Only if we understand enough and remember enough... We will one day escape from this ghost place..."

"No." Chu Tianqiu shook his head, "That's for you, not for me. For me, the more things I recall, the more convinced I am that we can't get out."

Chu Tianqiu's words made Zhang Chenze fall into silence again, and soon he spoke calmly:

"I already have a better way to escape from here."

"What...do you have?" Zhang Chenze asked.

"I want to become a god." Chu Tianqiu said, "I want to become the true master of this place. At that moment, everyone will be liberated."

"Ah...?" Zhang Chenze was slightly stunned. He was not sure whether the Chu Tianqiu in front of him was really crazy or had other plans.

An ordinary person...becomes a "god"?

"Why do you have such an idea...?" Zhang Chenze asked puzzledly, "If you retain a lot of memories, you can obviously become the strongest combat power of the "participants"..."

"It's because I have retained a lot of memories that I know that doesn't work at all." Chu Tianqiu reached out and plucked a few strands of hair scattered in front of his forehead, and said with a look of sadness on his face, "All the strong men in my memory have failed. ...Qiaoyun is just one of them."

"But now we are all together..."

"Qi Xia has also failed." Chu Tianqiu said calmly, "Qi Xia and Qiao Yun are so similar. They have walked the same path. This is not a bad thing. Just think of them as trying and making mistakes for me, but now I’m going to go my own way.”

After hearing Chu Tianqiu's words, Zhang Chenze wanted to speak several times but was stuck in his mouth.

He originally wanted to ask Chu Tianqiu for a way to awaken the aboriginal people, but now it seemed that it was difficult for him to ask.

"So... I really want to know..." Zhang Chenze brought the topic back again, "What is your relationship with Qiaoyun...? The child Qiaoyun gave birth to..."

"Thirty years ago, Qiaoyun was my lover." Chu Tianqiu said with a blank expression, "And that child is also mine."
