Chu Lingya had been walking in one direction for a long time, Wu Zhongyou seemed to want to call him to stop several times, but finally stopped, he followed behind Chu Lingya dejectedly, looking very listless.

"Persevere, once we find the source of this space, we will have a way to take you away." Chu Lingya turned her head to encourage him.

"Oh!" Wu Zhongyou responded with effort, and asked, "Brother Chu, are you tired? Do you want to go back to my room and sit for a while?"

"Not tired, let's hurry up, lest things change, you also want to return to the real world soon, right?"

"Yeah." Wu Zhongyou responded, and suddenly he stopped as if he had discovered something, and his eyes slowly opened wide, "Chu, Brother Chu, look over there!"

Chu Lingya looked in the direction of his finger, and a dividing line suddenly appeared more than 100 meters diagonally in front of the two of them.The world finally changed for the first time in Chu Lingya's eyes. A brown color block appeared outside the outline of "Black Mountain", indicating that there is the border.

"Quick, let's go and have a look!" Chu Lingya ran over quickly, and he saw a gentle slope, and after sliding down that gentle slope to the bottom, he saw the brown earth.

"Don't come down first, I'll go explore the way."

Just as Wu Zhongyou was about to follow, he was stopped by Chu Lingya: "Forget it, you'd better go back to the house, in case something happens, you can still block it."

"what?"

Chu Lingya waved his hand, Wu Zhongyou had no choice but to turn around and press the doorknob, he opened the door a gap, but didn't go in, but looked in the direction of Chu Lingya nervously.

Chu Lingya had already slipped to the bottom. For a while, due to the viewing angle, Wu Zhongyou could hardly see others. Fortunately, Chu Lingya popped up again after a while.Standing on the brown soil, he first tried to take two steps forward, backward, left, and right, and then jumped vigorously: "It's okay!" He said, "It seems to be quite safe."

However, as soon as he finished speaking, a huge gap suddenly opened up in the brown soil. Before Chu Lingya could even utter a word, he was swallowed up by the gap!

……

Xie Rujian was sitting in the conference room on the top floor of Manwen Company, and there was a row of people standing in front of her. They were all responsible for the Bai Jingjing series, covering various lines such as publishing, film and television adaptation, and derivative cultural creation.These people are usually extremely busy, but now they line up one by one to report to Xie Rujian.

"Have you heard of Wu Zhongyou?"

"No."

"Do you know Wu Zhongyou?"

"do not know."

"Is there an employee named Wu Zhongyou in your company?"

"No."

Ask one, answer one, give way automatically after answering, and come up next.

"Do you have any impression of the name Wu Zhongyou..." Xie Rujian suddenly paused when he said this, he closed his eyes as if he was perceiving something, opened them after a while, and frowned.He touched the thin silver bracelets on his left wrist, one of which slowly had an iron-gray rust stain on its surface.

"Wu Zhongyou... I seem to have a little impression." Xie Rujian raised his head and looked at the woman standing in front of him.

"What's your name, what position?"

"My name is Lin Yingzhi, and I'm Teacher Bai Jing's agent and partner."

"Tell me who Wu Zhongyou is?"

The woman seemed to be lost in thought, her brows were tightly frowned: "I... can't remember, but I do have an impression."

Xie Rujian said, "Look at my eyes."

The woman looked over, followed her and shook violently as if she had been electrocuted, and when she came back to her senses, Xie Rujian was no longer in front of her eyes.

"Miss Lin!"

Someone called her: "When did you come, hey? Why is everyone here?"

Similar doubts come and go, people look at me, I look at you, and finally they are forced to decide not to think about it because of the KPI hanging over their heads, and go to work on their own.

"Miss Lin, you are here to talk about the renewal of the new contract with Mr. Bai Jing, this way please."

"I remembered, Wu Zhongyou is from the Bai Jingjing series..."

"Miss Lin?"

Lin Yingzhi was stunned: "What did I just say?"

"Ok?"

Lin Yingzhi regained her senses and looked at her watch: "Ah, it's already time, let's hurry up and finish the contract."

"Okay," the person in charge of Manwen asked, "Is Teacher Bai Jing not coming today?"

"He'll be here in a minute."

Xie Rujian took the elevator and arrived at the ground floor of Manwen Building.

There is an entire audio-visual wall here, displaying the voices or influences of all the big names signed by Manwen. In the lobby, there will be a theme display of a certain IP according to the group's publicity plan all the year round. This season is of course the Bai Jingjing series, so You can see replica models of Bai Jingjing's classic scenes, peripheral products, promotional videos played in loop, and even holographic images in the showcases everywhere.

When Xie Rujian was going out, he happened to pass by a tall woman. After taking two steps, Xie Rujian was slightly startled, and turned to look at that person.The other party was wearing a modified LO skirt in the oriental style. Her long, waist-length black hair was flowing smoothly and swaying gently with her light footsteps. Even just looking at her back, she could feel her beauty and aura. She was also carrying a black lace parasol, the handle of which was grasped by her lace-gloved hand, gently tapping the ground intermittently.

The elevator opened with a "ding" sound, and someone Xie Rujian had just met came out, and when she saw the woman, she immediately greeted her warmly: "Teacher Bai, you are here, the conference room is ready , I will lead you there."

Xie Rujian looked away thoughtfully, he walked quickly to the service desk and asked, "Is there a bookstore nearby that sells the Bai Jingjing series?"

Following the guidance of the service desk, Xie Rujian quickly found the full series of Bai Jingjing's comics in the matching bookstore across the street.

"The whole series plus extra episodes are all here, a total of 37 volumes."

"How much is a set?"

"It's not expensive, but some of them are out of print, so the price will be higher. I'm a first-level agent who signed a contract with Manwen, and I can give you a good price." The boss typed a number on the computer and gave Xie Rujian looked at it, four digits.

Xie Rujian: "..."

Just at this moment, the rust on the thin rusty bracelet on his wrist grew a little longer.

Xie Rujian: "Do you know which book talks about twins, twins, etc.?"

The boss scratched his head: "I really can't recall this all at once. You read so many books here, and I haven't read every one of them carefully."

Xie Rujian asked, "Is there a trial reading?"

"Yes." The boss pulled out a tattered old book, "Usually we keep an old book for trial reading, and you can also go to the Internet to watch the electronic trial reading. Now the outside of the book is plastic-sealed. If you dismantle it, I won’t be able to sell it, and besides, the Bai Jingjing series are so popular, trust me, you won’t suffer a loss if you buy the bag.”

Xie Rujian took a deep breath, scolded Chu Lingya a hundred times in his heart, and then took out the mobile phone payment code with a dead fish face: "I'll buy a set."

Boss: "Okay."

Xie Rujian: "T-Take a discount."

Boss: "It's already very favorable."

Xie Rujian: "I'm poor..."

boss:"……"

An hour later, Xie Rujian sat in the street garden near Manwen Group and quickly went through all the comics in the Bai Jingjing series.Occasionally, it's no surprise that someone comes out for a walk and passes by him. After all, this is Manwen's territory, and it's normal to have Bai Jingjing's fans.

"How do you see it that way?"

Xie Rujian raised his head and saw a young man with four eyes: "Every page of Bai Jingjing's series is a high-quality product, you get it, it's a fine product!"

Xie Rujian ignored him and continued with his one-eye ten-line.

Four Eyes: "This book, the murderer is King Richard."

Xie Rujian gave him a gloomy look, and the young man closed his mouth.

Xie Rujian continued.

"The next page is very exciting, don't skip it!"

Xie Rujian took a deep breath: "You know me so well?"

"That's right, I'm a die-hard Bai Jingjing book fan!"

"To test you, which book talks about twins?" Xie Rujian asked casually, but didn't expect to answer.

"Ham, just this question, of course I know. There are 2 books involved in the main story line, the Darkness Pavilion and Longxin Bridge, and the stone Buddha case in the side story line."

Xie Rujian dubiously found the three books, but was snatched away by the four-eyed young man because he was not familiar with them.He flipped through it: "Look, here, here, here, that's right."

Xie Rujian took it and looked at it for a while. Sure enough, the young man knew the Bai Jingjing series like the back of his hand, but none of the three books contained the clues he was looking for.

Could it be that the woman named Lin Yingzhi remembered it wrong?

"Is there nothing else?"

"Still looking for it?" The four-eyed young man thought for a while, "No more."

Xie Rujian said, "Thank you." He got up and planned to leave.

"Hey, wait, wait!" Four Eyes called him, "If it wasn't for real and fake twins, there might really be a copy."

Four Eyes came up, rummaged through the pile of books for a while, found a colorful booklet, flipped through it, and then heaved a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, I remembered it correctly, read!" He handed the booklet to Xie Rujian, Xie Rujian looked over, and the first thing that caught his eye was Bai Jingjing sitting in front of the dressing table, next to his lines.

"It's actually very simple to change your image. Put on a wig, adjust your skin color and facial features, change your body shape, and change your clothes. You will look like a different person. It's not difficult to create a brother or sister out of thin air." In the movie, she put on a wig, modified her skin color and the shape of the end of her eyes, put on a suit, and when she got up, she was already a completely different person, a handsome young man.

"Please allow me to introduce my twin brother to you, I'll call him..." The men's clothing Bai Jingjing smiled slightly, with a hint of evil charm and madness, "Wu Zhongyou, you create something out of nothing."

Xie Rujian breathed a sigh of relief: "The power of fantasy finally found you!"

"what?"

Xie Rujian waved his hands casually, and walked towards the Manwen Building with the bag of Bai Jingjing's comic books he was forced to buy.While standing in front of the traffic light, Xie Rujian looked up at the building. A silver-purple line ran through the building, from bottom to top, as if interspersed in the layout of the building. A distinctive thread is woven in, and finally a pair of vivid eyes are formed on the top of the building.

"I really thought I was a human being." Xie Rujian snorted lightly.
