The expected pain from being burned by the fire did not come, Xuan Mu's consciousness became a little fuzzy, and he let Shi Qi drag him into the depths of the sea of ​​fire.

The soaring flames occupied his sight, and there seemed to be sharp buzzing sounds in his ears.

He felt a splitting headache and his eyes were darkened.

After a while, the buzzing sound gradually became smaller and gradually disappeared.After a brief silence, the subtle sound of raindrops rang in his ears, and the volume became louder and louder, as if accompanied by a few thunderclaps.

He opened his eyes tremblingly, and what he saw were dense dark clouds, lightning flashing across the sky, and... half of the glass window shattered into spider webs.

The rainwater hit his face through the broken front window, the front of the car in front of him had been knocked down, the strong smell of blood penetrated into the nostrils, and there was fluid flowing down from his forehead.

After a long time, he moved his body with some difficulty, trying to raise one hand and touch his head.

He touched... some shards of glass, bright red blood.Before he had time to clarify the situation, the blood on his forehead continued to flow down, flowing down the eyebrows and into his eye sockets.

The eyes were slowly stained red, more and more red, and then darkened again.

The sound of "di-di-" sounded from the side, and he smelled the smell of disinfectant, as if... a suppressed sob sounded from his ears.

His heart flustered for no reason, a little uncomfortable.But he seemed to be imprisoned in this body, unable to move, and his body was completely out of his control.

After a long time, the restraints on his body seemed to loosen a little, and he tried hard to open his eyes.

When he raised his eyelids, what caught his eyes was... a resplendent and golden...

Hotel Lobby? ? ?

???

He moved his body slowly.

"Are you ok?"

A voice suddenly sounded from his ears, Xuan Mu's brain hadn't fully recovered, and he didn't realize who the familiar voice came from.

The person beside him leaned forward, raised his hand to touch Xuan Mu's forehead, and then pressed his forehead against it.

"Why did you faint suddenly?" the man said softly, "I was shocked. Is there any discomfort?"

Xuan Mu looked at the person in front of him in a daze, and it took him a long time to react, his voice was a little hoarse: "...Shi Qi?"

The man responded, and then said, "Do you want a drink? I'll get you a glass."

Xuan Mu nodded blankly, Shi Qi stood up, walked towards the water dispenser beside him, and poured a cup of warm water for Xuan Mu.

Xuan Mu looked around... It seemed that he was... sitting on a sofa in a hotel lobby? ?

Just now, Qi said that he fainted... what fainted?

……what happened? ?

Shi Qi handed the water cup to Xuan Mu.

Xuan Mu took the paper cup and took a small sip, "Where is this?"

"Settlement area." Shi Qi answered him, "We have cleared the customs."

"Ah." Xuan Mu raised his eyes and recalled for a moment, recalling what happened before rushing into the sea of ​​flames just now, "...Did I almost disappear just now?"

"..." Shi Qi frowned, "The witch blocked you."

Xuan Mu nodded, thanking him sincerely...the two couples fell in love and killed each other.

He wanted to say something more, but the radio in the lobby of the hotel interrupted him with a "Didi Di" sound, and after a while, the radio with a mechanical sound rang.

"Game players Shi Qi and Xuan Mu are invited to the settlement window for point settlement——game players Shi Qi and Xuan Mu are invited to the settlement window for point settlement."

Shi Qi looked at the source of the voice, stood up from the sofa, and stretched out a hand to Xuan Mu, "Can you stand up?"

Xuan Mu was taken aback for a moment, unconsciously hesitated for a second, and then took Shi Qi's hand.

He used his strength to get up from the sofa, and followed Shi Qi towards the "settlement window" - the front desk of the hotel.The young lady at the front desk took two tablets from the drawer and handed them over.

Xuan Mu looked at the front desk.

There was no expression on her face, and her movements were a little weirdly mechanical.

"This..." Xuan Mu leaned close to Shi Qi's ear and asked softly, "A real person?"

"NPC." Shi Qi took the tablet from the front desk, handed one of them to Xuan Mu, raised his hand and tapped the screen.

After a while, words appeared on the screen in Shi Qi's hand.

[Player: Shi Qi

Score in this round: 3w

Accumulated total score: 3w

Points required for wish: 20w]

Xuan Mu took the tablet, imitated his operation and clicked on it, and after a while, words appeared on his own screen.

[Player: Xuan Mu

Score in this round: 3w

Accumulated total score: 3w

Points required for wish: 18w]

Shi Qi leaned over to take a look, and suddenly stopped.

After a while, he turned his head to look at the front desk in doubt, "Equal split?"

Xuan Mu heard the people beside him speak abruptly, he was a little dazed, and turned to look at the front desk.

The NPC nodded slowly.

???

what split?

Xuan Mu narrowed his eyes and glanced at Shi Qi's screen, and immediately noticed something wrong with Shi Qi's score calculation, "I remember you...isn't it your first time entering the game?"

Shi Qi nodded.

"Then," Xuan Mu pointed to Shi Qi's accumulated total score on the screen, "Why did your score in this game be the same as your total score...you didn't score in the last game?"

Shi Qi was startled, nodded, turned his head and continued to touch the screen without speaking.

Xuan Mu squinted his eyes and looked at Shi Qi, then lowered his head and clicked the "Next" option on the screen.

[Please choose to continue the game or return to the world

Continue the game and return to the world]

Xuan Mu saw that the "Return to the World" option on his screen was grayed out, he was stunned, and leaned over to glance at Shi Qi's screen.

Shi Qi's "return to the world" option is also greyed out.

"Why?" Xuan Mu looked up in confusion, looking up at the accountant.

The accountant looked up at him, and after a while, he slowly opened his mouth to make a sound.

"Player Xuanmu, due to special reasons, cannot return to the real world and can only choose to continue the game. Player Shi Qi, due to the binding relationship, cannot return to the real world."

Every word spoken by the NPC has the same tone and voice, which makes people feel chills down their backs.

Xuan Mu caught the word "binding" in her words, and turned to look at Shi Qi.

Shi Qi looked at the screen without squinting, raised his hand and clicked the option of 'Continue Game', "Click it."

"Ah." Xuan Mu responded, and had no choice but to click on that option as well.

Immediately afterwards, the accountant looked at Shi Qi and Xuan Mu with his emotionless eyes, and said coldly.

"Because the two players ranked first in points in the previous game, they obtained the right to use the luxury suite in the pending area. The next game will start at 9:[-] pm the day after tomorrow. If you need to exchange points for privileges in the middle of the game, you can call the service by snapping your fingers .”

Xuan Mu was taken aback, "Privilege... what privilege?"

Shi Qi: "..."

Xuan Mu asked the cashier: "What can I exchange for?"

The accountant ignored him, took out the room card from the drawer and handed it over: "Room number 666, please go there by yourself."

Shi Qi took the room card, called Xuan Mu, turned around and walked towards the elevator,

"Why is no one paying attention to me..." Xuan Mu looked at the room card, "There is only one room? Is it because... the binding she mentioned?"

Shi Qi walked into the elevator, pressed the floor, and after a long silence, he said "hmm" in a low voice.

"What will happen if you are bound?" Xuan Mu turned to ask him.

"The scores will be the same," Shi Qi hesitated for a while, then sighed, "Add them up and divide them equally."

Xuan Mu then asked, "Why are you bound?... How do I feel that something is wrong with you? You have a strange attitude."

Shi Qi replied impeccably, "I don't know, I don't, it's not my fault."

"Okay," Xuan Mu saw that Shi Qi didn't want to say anything, and didn't force him, so he said indifferently, "Then can I ask something else?"

Shi Qi: "You ask."

With a sound of "ding", the elevator stopped steadily on the sixth floor, and the two got out of the elevator and walked towards room 666.

Xuan Mu stared into Shi Qi's eyes, his expression suddenly became serious, "Did I follow my father's old path?"

Shi Qi: "..."

Xuan Mu didn't look away, and added, "Car accident."

Shi Qi frowned, remained silent for a long time, and gave a difficult "hmm".

"Oh," Xuan Mu nodded, and didn't pay too much attention to it, "You still bumped your head, didn't you?"

Shi Qi spat out a soft "hmm".

"No wonder I don't remember anything," he pointed to a room in the corridor, "This, 666."

Shi Qi responded wearily, raised his hand and swiped the door with the key card, the two entered the room without a word, and turned on the light.

I saw a big bed in the middle of the room, and the glass in the hotel bathroom was also translucent.

"..." Xuan Mu was stunned, "This...why is it still a big bed room?"

"Maybe it's because we're bound," Shi Qi replied, and opened the wardrobe behind the door. There were two sets of clothes in it, which were the same style as what they were wearing.

"Very considerate." Xuan Mu commented, "As expected of a luxury suite."

Shi Qi pointed to Xuan Mu's cuff, and suggested, "Go wash it first, I'll go later."

Xuan Mu looked down, he seemed to have some blood stains on his body, but Shi Qi's clothes were much cleaner.

He picked up the sweater on his body and smelled it, then let go of his hand in disgust, without evading it, "Okay, then I'll wash it quickly."

"Well," Shi Qi nodded, and sat down beside the bed, "No hurry, wash slowly."

Xuan Mu responded, took out clothes and towels from the closet, turned on the bathroom light and walked in.

He glanced at the translucent frosted glass behind him with some discomfort, and could vaguely see the outline of Shi Qi who was sitting by the bed, then took a deep breath, and took off the soiled sweater.

He noticed the mirror on the sink in front of him, saw his current appearance clearly, and froze in place.

...? ?

Xuan Mu suddenly remembered... he seemed to have forgotten something, hesitated for a while, opened the door and shouted, "Shi Qi."

"exist."

"I..." Xuanmu said, "How old am I now?"

Shi Qi was stunned, and immediately understood Xuan Mu's meaning, "20, now a sophomore."

"Oh!" Xuan Mu responded, closed the bathroom door, and returned to the mirror.

Xuan Mu raised his hand and stroked his hair, it seemed to be longer than in the third year of high school.

"More than two years..."

He stretched out his hand to touch his face, he probably lost a lot of weight, and his jaw line became clearer.He didn't know if it was because of the light in the bathroom, but he felt that he seemed a lot paler.
