Did the worm king lose his horse today [Interstellar]

Gu Jiurong stood on the observatory again.

This is the weakest point in the entire illusion, and it is from here that he returns to the past through the ring left by Celia.After Shao Yufeng returned the ring to her, she finally used her mental power to discover more ways to use the ring, and left it to Gu Jiurong.

Is it because she thinks that sooner or later, Gu Jiurong will encounter this star gate, or become an enemy of the fallen empire?After all, in memory, she and Shao Yufeng did say that they would give "that thing" to Gu Jiurong.

The answer is no longer known.

On the issue of leaving the star gate, Ye Zhengqing made another suggestion: "Since Xu Feiyang can send out messages, why can't we take advantage of this and find a way to notify the alliance? Do we really need to kill him?"

Gu Yue rubbed his eyebrows: "First, what we want is not only to leave the illusion. If the star gate always exists, then the threat to the alliance will never dissipate. I am thinking, if we go to another star gate In front of you, will you figure out everything.”

He only explained that Gu Jiurong was in a coma during that time because Gu Jiurong had received a message from an unknown person.

He continued: "Secondly, Xu Feiyang is able to send out signals. It is likely that he has become a spiritual body and is the master of this illusion. His memory recovery time is very short every day, and it is difficult to achieve effective communication. .If we want to send the signal in person, at present, the only way is to kill him. Third, he is... already dead."

Ye Zhengqing was stunned for a moment: "Indeed..." He paused, "To be honest, I don't think you need to find another stargate. Besides the unreliable sources of information, you have already done too much for the alliance, why not How about giving yourself a break? Finally, after a lot of difficulty, we left the ark and really went to the universe."

Gu Yue rubbed his eyebrows: "It's just that I can't rest assured. I grew up as a member of the Gu family, and my wealth, power and status are not bad. Naturally, I have to be worthy of this trust."

Ye Zhengqing was momentarily at a loss for words.

He walked around the living room twice in a little irritability, and said, "As before, I believe in your decision. But, how do we... kill Xu Feiyang?"

Gu Yue raised his eyes, there was a dim light in the black pupils.He said softly: "Just let him not die in the usual way, or we will take the initiative or he will commit suicide. Xu Feiyang has already endured a lot, and no one wants to go to this point. I don't remember this Ten years may be his greatest luck."

"There are times when we all wish we had more choices."

……

Gu Jiurong was sitting in the dining room, and Xu Feiyang was opposite him.

This is the sixth time Xu Feiyang has recommended this restaurant to him. Every day after his memory is reset, he will mention it to Gu Jiurong again.When Gu Jiurong came here for the first time, he felt that the dishes here were barely passable, and it was not worth remembering so much.

He didn't realize until halfway through the meal that Xu Feiyang didn't come here to eat at all, but because the piano music here really suited his taste.Just for that song, Xu Feiyang could sit here the whole night.

This time Gu Jiurong ordered ramen, and half of the soft-boiled egg inside was golden.

Xu Feiyang was still the same as the previous few times, he started to close his eyes halfway through eating, and tapped the time with his finger bones on the table while listening to the sound of the piano.Gu Jiurong was really bored, pawing at the noodles in the bowl, remembering that Gu Ming also brought him to this restaurant.

At that time, the man smiled as gently as usual: "I like this place very much." He looked out the window at the busy traffic, "The piano sound here is nice."

Gu Jiurong suddenly understood that Xu Feiyang and Gu Ming must have been here many times.

According to the plan, tomorrow is the day when they will find a way to kill Xu Feiyang.After all, no one wants to stay in this illusion for another day.Xu Feiyang was originally a dead person, and when he died, he would just return to the original ending, which might not be a relief.

As soon as the piano piece is turned, the player's fingers are flying on the black and white keys.

Xu Feiyang suddenly became excited: "This is the song I used in the movie!" He told Gu Jiurong for the umpteenth time, "My movie will be finished soon, and the last shot is short. You know I What kind of scene do you want to end with?"

Without waiting for Gu Jiurong to answer, he went on first: "I want to end with the most magnificent sunrise! It's a pity that it's raining all day today. Wait until tomorrow, it must be a good day."

"Yeah." Gu Jiurong started to drink the noodle soup, "It must be a good weather."

They left the restaurant a few hours later.Walking on the road under the cloud, Gu Jiurong asked him: "Do you know that there are other illusions that can be connected to the observatory?"

At this point in time, it was the time when Xu Feiyang's memory began to fully recover.

Sure enough, he was stunned for a few seconds, and his expression suddenly changed: "I remembered!" He excitedly grabbed Gu Jiurong's shoulder, "How did you know about this?! When the spaceship crashed, I entered a Strange space. I saw a lot of things there, here... the entire star gate seems to be composed of many small worlds!"

"I don't know why I'm in this illusion, but it's very strange," he frowned slightly, "It seems that every time this illusion is unstable, I can feel it. Then I also heard a strange voice speaking to me .That's...that's what it told me, how to communicate with the outside world through the observatory."

This is something Gu Jiurong doesn't know.He immediately asked: "What is it talking about? How to send a message to the observatory?"

"I...I don't know," Xu Feiyang frowned, quite painfully, "I...I don't know anything. But it...it is looking for me, and there are other people."

He was walking on the deserted street when suddenly a flowerpot fell from the sky and hit him on the head.Xu Feiyang rolled his eyes, fell to the ground and did not move.

Gu Jiurong: "..." He looked at the time, and it was almost twelve o'clock.

After such a long time, everyone decided that it was impossible to ask more things from Xu Feiyang.In the past few days, only Gu Jiurong was idle and bored, staying with Xu Feiyang, listening to him talk about his magnificent movies, as well as unfinished paintings and poetry collections.

After tomorrow, everything here will be wiped out.

Gu Jiurong started to walk home.

On the way, he took out the silver-white ring again, and groped for its cold shell.Huge mental power was poured into it again, and it turned into a metallic liquid and wrapped around his fingers.

For some reason, when he poured his mental power these days, he felt more and more that another consciousness was entangled with him.

That feeling was somewhat similar to when Xu Feiyang tried to contact him.The same illusory spirit, the same contact that cannot be traced back, is extremely blurred and distant.

Could it be that in other illusions, there are also people calling to him?Gu Jiurong frowned, not understanding exactly what happened.

Gu Yue wanted to find out thoroughly what was going on with this star gate.Of course Gu Jiurong knew it was very dangerous. After all, the mysterious power here was beyond their comprehension.

If even the Fallen Empire can't control this thing, what can they do?Even if you just want to find out the truth here, you may have to pay the price of your life.

He didn't try to stop Gu Yue.

In fact, it was precisely because he longed for endless adventures that he instinctively felt a strong attraction from Gu Yue—it was the same kind of smell, and he knew it was tobacco, alcohol, perfume, and Xinghai.Just like Xu Feiyang and Gu Ming are also attracted to each other instinctively, meeting a bosom friend in the vast sea of ​​people is extremely lucky, and it will never happen again in this life.

He never refuses to conquer and challenge.

Back home, Gu Yue probably went to discuss something with Gu Xingyan again, but he hasn't come back yet.

Both of them are leaders of the Gu family, and it is rare to cooperate at this time. Even with extremely limited resources, they are extremely organized.During this time, they have organized all the manpower to explore every corner of the star city, and tried many different plans in an attempt to break through this world.

Gu Jiurong is not good at these, nor is he interested.He has been trying to use his mental power to break through the obstacles here these days, and since he obtained the silver ring, the connection between the swarm consciousness outside and him has become more and more clear.

Maybe in a few days, or after Xu Feiyang died, he would be able to regain control of the swarm.

This is naturally the best, otherwise, after this predicament is over, Gu Xingyan must combine the power of the alliance and continue to hunt down Gu Yue.

Gu Yue never came back, Gu Jiurong was bored and turned on the holographic screen in the living room.

As soon as I saw it, it was the expansion of the mating of queen bugs, which was at the most intense place.

Gu Jiurong: "..." He quickly changed the movie, and the next one was Xu Feiyang's.

Either an extremely dull and simple color, or a brilliance that is so rich that it almost flows out.

The tall buildings in black and white, the flowing golden luster of the sunset shattered into the creek and the wasteland, and the stratus clouds seemed to be burning in the distance. The whole world is intertwined with orange red and red gold.The eyes of children looking up at the stars, the ordinary small bungalows, the floating lavender, the train that flies past the star capital with thousands of lights flowing on its body.

The first time I didn't feel it, but now that Gu Jiurong watched the film, the traveler walked through the endless mountains and rivers, and suddenly felt that this should be a very gentle film.

He slowly fell asleep while playing the video.

The next day was still cloudy and rainy, no different from the past few days.

Gu Yue finally came back early in the morning, and he said to Gu Jiurong, "Today is the last day, why don't you spend it with him?" He paused, "I think you get along well with him these few days. .”

"It's okay." Gu Jiurong said.After all, he didn't have a deep friendship with Xu Feiyang, and he couldn't say that the relationship was so good that he knew himself and the enemy.It's just that Xu Feiyang's straightforward character and his unusual persistence and pursuit of certain things will not make him disgusted.

But since it's not disgusting, it means they can get along with each other, which is really not easy for Gu Jiurong.

He thought for a while and said to Gu Yue: "However, I'll stay with him today."

So starting at noon that day, he got mixed up with Xu Feiyang again.

Xu Feiyang was still the same as before. After listening to the opera in the morning, he held a cup of coffee in the afternoon and went to see the musical fountain in the light rain. He held a black umbrella and twirled alone in the rain, dancing with his invisible partner.Then he turned around and ran to the edge of Xingdu, studied the flowers and trees, set up a small rainproof shelter, and hummed a song to draw a sketch of a water-stained flower bud.

Finally he returned to Xingdu, it was already four or five o'clock in the afternoon.Gu Jiurong followed him silently, and suddenly said, "You really... don't remember anything?"

"What?" Xu Feiyang hummed, holding the picture he had just drawn with great joy.

No matter how others reminded him before, Xu Feiyang couldn't remember anything about the past at this time.But Gu Jiurong thought that it would be good to tell Xu Feiyang as a story. After all, if his life is only a few hours left, if he knows more about his real life, he will have less regrets.

So they sat in a coffee shop with few people. Gu Jiurong was not good at expressing, so he simply explained the ins and outs of the story to Xu Feiyang.

By the time he finished speaking, it was already quite dark.

Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows of the coffee shop, there are people of all colors coming and going, all looking in a hurry.At this time, the star capital has begun to deform slightly, the metal structure of the high-rise building is exposed, and the world begins to collapse after the darkness falls as usual.

Xu Feiyang was silent for a long, long time.

Gu Jiurong said: "It's okay if you don't believe me, I just told you such a thing."

"So you mean," Xu Feiyang looked up at him, "I've been stuck in this day?"

"Ah."

"But it's been raining all day today," Xu Feiyang murmured, "What about the last scene of my movie. I should, I should want to show this movie to another person. He... I can't seem to remember what his name is."

"Is it Gu Ming?"

Xu Feiyang was still at a loss: "Probably, I'm not very impressed with this name. If what you said is true, then I may have forgotten too many things." He took a sip of coffee, "I can't go Tomorrow, we won’t see the sunrise.”

Gu Jiurong didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only keep silent.

Xu Feiyang stood up, his expression was not very good.He sorted out his paintings, put them in his backpack, rearranged his camera, and said, "You, let me be quiet."

"Where are you going?" Gu Jiurong asked.

"I..." Xu Feiyang was obviously still in a daze, "I want to go to the theater."

The theater is also a place that Xu Feiyang likes very much. He has a lot of unfinished scripts, and he is waiting for one day to be shown here, even though most people in the star capital only thought he was a lunatic.

Gu Jiurong followed him to the theater, which was closed at this time, and they found a place to dig in—thanks to the distorted Star City, there are loopholes everywhere.

It was pitch black inside, and Xu Feiyang turned on a few dim lights.The endless seats were empty, silently facing the gigantic stage.

He stood there for a while, and suddenly burst into tears, the folder in his hand was scattered, and the white drawing paper flew to the ground.

He murmured: "I... I remembered, I and another person have been here many times." He knelt down and held his head, almost out of breath, "Yes, Gu Ming and I have been here Many times, I also want to make movies for him. How can I forget this kind of thing?!"

"I, am I?" The memory of the past suddenly came back at this time, "I'm already dead...? By the way, I remembered, the starship crashed, and there were flames everywhere, here... here is an endless loop I can't escape at all!" His voice was completely distorted by the end, "Gu Ming...I haven't gone back to see you yet...the biggest show hasn't started yet!!"

Before Gu Jiurong could speak, Xu Feiyang stumbled onto the stage: "Don't follow me!!"

At this time, the clock had pointed to eleven o'clock, Gu Yue asked where Gu Jiurong was, and it was time for him to come and find Xu Feiyang.

Gu Jiurong replied to the message, hesitated for a moment, and did not follow Xu Feiyang.

Xu Feiyang slammed the door between the backstage and the stage. Gu Jiurong could only hear waves of noise from the stage. There were heavy sounds of objects falling to the ground, crisp crackling sounds, and Xu Feiyang's suppressed voice like a trapped animal. .He seemed to be murmuring poems or crying bitterly, or just repeating another person's name over and over again.

At [-]:[-], Gu Yue arrived on time.

Gu Jiurong pointed to the stage and said, "He's on top. Do you... want to go there now?"

"It's okay." Gu Yue said, "I can wait. Give him some more time."

The second hand moved forward a little bit, and finally the sound on the stage became smaller and smaller.Xu Feiyang seemed to be gradually controlling his emotions, suppressing the terrifying voices coming from his throat. At 11:30, Gu Jiurong heard him say something softly: "It's just a part of life. I can accept it, and call it an unsatisfactory curtain call."

long wait.

At 55 minutes, Gu Yue pushed open the closed door.Gu Jiurong and him stood on the huge stage.

The stage was brightly lit, half of the curtain had been pulled back, and the dark seats below were still silent and empty.Waiting until tomorrow morning, there must be laughter and laughter here again, the scripts pass by in turn on the stage, interpreting different lives amidst joys and sorrows.

There were mottled bloodstains on the ground, and a blood-stained short knife - it was the sharp weapon Xu Feiyang used to cut off messy vines or weeds when he went to sketch in the wild.

The paintings are all over the floor, mixed with many unfinished poetry collections and novels, and the draft paper is dazzlingly white.Xu Feiyang chose a place with the brightest lights on the stage, leaned against the wall, and closed his eyes quietly, as if he had just finished a grand performance.

His expression was no longer twisted and unwilling, but replaced by a strange calm, as if opening his eyes would be a brand new day.The other half of the dark curtain was closed tightly, and a camera was properly supported on the stage, aiming at the curtain and running silently.

For a long time, Xu Feiyang has used it to capture every shot of the movie.

On the last day of his life, he still completed the last scene as he wished.

He painted a blazing sun on the curtain with blood.
