non-human reincarnation

Cheng Yan did not cook as agreed.

Time seemed to stop at the moment when Chi Wu fell asleep, Cheng Yan held Chi Wu's hand, and sat straight beside Chi Wu, motionless.

Apart from worries, Cheng Yan also regretted it.

If he hadn't compromised with Chi Wu, and hadn't followed his own will, maybe he wouldn't have let Chi Wu face the fourth ladder alone now.

The difficulty of the current ladder cannot be correctly estimated. Two months after Wen Bo and the others raised this matter, people in the third world finally realized it. The difficulty of the ladder caused heated discussions.

The same is true for Cheng Yan, he absolutely does not want Chi Wu to go to the ladder at this moment.

Still without my own company.

I don't know how long it has passed, Chi Wu's palms were sweating, Cheng Yan touched it with his fingertips, his heart sank in an instant, and he hurriedly touched Chi Wu's cheek with his hands.

"Chi Wu?" Cheng Yan called his name more and more urgently, "Chi Wu, wake up."

Chi Wu didn't respond, but his body temperature was getting higher and higher.

No one can wake up the passers-by from the sky ladder and the world mirror, but Cheng Yan didn't believe it, and kept calling Chi Wu's name.

I don't know if it was Cheng Yan's illusion, but he saw Chi Wu's eyelids move slightly during a certain call, but he couldn't accurately capture that moment, because Chi Wu's expression didn't change at all.

He put down Chiwu, poured water from the kitchen, and fed it to Chiwu, but without much success, Chiwu only seemed to have a little more rosy lips.

Half an hour later, Cheng Yan could no longer sit still.

In the ladder world, they may have passed more than ten days, but no matter how long it took to break through the level, it would not take more than an hour to feed back to the third world. Cheng Yan picked up Chi Wu and put him back on the bed in the bedroom.

When he was about to cover the quilt, he saw the pendant falling out of Chi Wu's T-shirt. It was the ring that Chi Wu regarded as more important than his life.

Cheng Yan wanted to help him put it back into the T-shirt, but took it off easily.

The rope broke.

Cheng Yan's hands trembled violently, and the red pierced a deep thorn in his heart, making him unable to breathe. He touched Chi Wu's neck and pulled out the remaining half of the short rope.

He tied a knot, but it was not secure, and the rope let go again, and he had never felt so clumsy with his hands that he could not reconnect even a red rope.

Cheng Yan took a breath, put the ring back into Chi Wu's palm, shook his hand again, asked him to wrap the ring, turned around and ran out.

There was a bang on the upstairs door.

It took more than a dozen bangings in a row before someone opened the door.

Wen Bo opened it.

He had no clothes on his upper body, apparently just woke up, and frowned after seeing Cheng Yan: "What happened?"

"Chi Wu entered the ladder and hasn't come out yet." Cheng Yan said.

Gu Ran also came out of the room at this time, the T-shirt on his body was half covered, revealing the red marks on the abdominal muscles: "You said Wuwu went to the ladder?!"

"How long?" Wen Bo asked.

"It's probably almost an hour and a half." Cheng Yan watched them turn pale for a moment, and comforted them a little, "He is not dead, but his temperature is very high. I want to ask if you have heard of the overtime situation."

Wen Bo pushed the door open, and took his own and Gu Ran's shoes from the shoe cabinet: "Go down and see people first."

Gu Ran walked in the middle, comforting Cheng Yan was also comforting himself: "It's only an hour and a half, it's okay, there is a little more time."

The scene in the bedroom was the same as when Cheng Yan left. Chi Wu was lying on the bed, and Cheng Yan touched his forehead, which was still hot.

"Cheng Yan, don't worry," Gu Ran said, "If you die in the ladder, the third world will disappear directly. If Chi Wu is still here, you must be fine."

Wen Bo stroked Gu Ran's shoulder, then bent down to check the situation of Chi Wu.

"It's true that I haven't heard that it hasn't come out for an hour and a half before, but I think it's okay," Wen Bo said, "The occurrence of Chi Wu may be a problem with the ladder. No one can say for sure on the current ladder, maybe There is a possibility of stretching the time scale."

The air pressure in Cheng Yan's body was still very low, he gave a soft "um", got up, went to the bathroom, twisted a cold towel and put it on Chi Wu's forehead.

Although they all explained the current situation of Chi Wu with various reasons, no one was really relieved. Gu Ran sat by the bed and looked at Chi Wu, and asked, "Why did he go to the ladder so soon?"

"The Ladder didn't say how long you have to wait." Wen Bo said, "Before, there was someone who entered the Ladder in the morning and went back in the afternoon after returning from a short rest, so opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared."

Gu Ran sighed, and rebuked Chi Wu angrily: "Before, I wished for one ladder a day, but suddenly I couldn't say it after coming out of the third ladder. Now it's all right, I was called by myself, and no one can help him. "

They sat in the room, and waited for a long time. The sun at noon gradually set to the west, and Cheng Yan moved: "I don't know how long it will be, you go back and rest first, and I will tell you if he wakes up."

It was really useless to wait, Wen Bo pulled Gu Ran up, went to the HOS group to find a few bosses who had cleared the seven or eight steps of the ladder, and asked if they had encountered similar situations.

After everyone left, Cheng Yan took Chi Wu's hand again and wrapped his ring in his palm. His voice was very low, as if he was whispering to Chi Wu before going to bed.

"Is it really that difficult this time?"

"They said that I went in with you, but you must not listen."

"It's a good thing I didn't make fried chicken cutlets, and you won't be able to eat fresh ones if you do."

He got up and changed the towel on Chi Wu's forehead, and then wiped Chi Wu's face and neck with a clean towel.

"Actually, I still saw you in the world mirror on the first step of the ladder," Cheng Yan said, "You are smiling very happily, the kind of smile I have never seen here, like a child, not so strong nor So smart."

"Obviously he was the young master of the family before, how can he bear living in such a mess here?"

"I actually bought rose seeds, but I haven't had a chance to give them to you before. After you wake up, we'll try planting one on the balcony."

"Also, a man came to me a few days ago and wanted me to go up the fourth ladder with him, and I agreed." Cheng Yan said, "His ability is very special, it is something he made out of mud. , will come true, I should have been a clay figurine in my previous life."

"Of course, people can't do it. He said that the best way to squeeze a puppy is useless in the ladder. There is so much mud and time for him to squeeze. But the most special thing is that the things he squeezed can bring out The ladder." Cheng Yan said, "I made an agreement with him, as long as he pinches a puppy in the ladder, I will protect him to come out safely."

"You should like it." Cheng Yan paused, "It is easy to be beaten if you keep dogs in the ladder, and those dogs will get angry, so be careful when you walk the dog."

He talked a lot, about what he did, what happened to him, who he met, and what props he got during the separated time.

When he really had nothing to say, Cheng Yan was also speechless. He drank water and fed Chi Wu as well. He fed water about a finger high for the whole cup.

Gu Ran and Wen Bo came here once, and after seeing Chiwu, Cheng Yan asked them to go back to rest and come back tomorrow.

It was cool at night, Cheng Yan closed the window, sat by Chi Wu's bed for a while, got up and opened Chi Wu's quilt, took off his coat and outer pants, and roughly wiped his body with a towel to dissipate heat.

When he touched Chi Wu's lips, he stopped.

Half a minute later, the lamp belonging to Chi Wu's bedroom went out, Cheng Yan drank half a glass of water, bent down, and gently and slowly kissed Chi Wu's dry and hot lips.

It was very slow to drink water like this, but Cheng Yan still insisted on letting Chi Wu finish the full cup.

The night was longer than expected.

Thin sky light penetrated into the window, and Cheng Yan had just twisted a towel for Chi Wu, when he touched Chi Wu's forehead, he felt that it was not as hot as last night, and wanted to try to wake Chi Wu up again.

But the sound made Cheng Yan frown. He got up to boil water, put it aside to keep warm, and fed it to Chi Wu when it was almost suitable for the mouth.

He made himself a simple breakfast, and continued to sit beside Chi Wu.

Gu Ran and Wen Bo brought bad news yesterday. They asked several people who lived in the third world long enough, and they all said that no one has ever stayed in the ladder for half a day.

They can only pin their hopes on the failure of the ladder.

But the judge was noncommittal.

Ever since there was a problem with the ladder, the judge named Lu Jingyuan hadn't looked at it squarely. Several times when people asked him for help and protested, he was perfunctory by saying "I'm only in charge of the third world, and the ladder has nothing to do with me".

Gradually, there were complaints in the ladder, saying that Lu Jingyuan's corpse was a vegetarian meal, but the judge was the judge after all, and no amount of complaints could compare to the power of life and death in his hands.

So Gu Ran and Wen Bo went to Lujingyuan to return without success.

By noon, Chi Wu's body temperature dropped back to normal, but Cheng Yan became even more nervous.He hoped that Chi Wu just had a bad cold or fell asleep with a fever, so that as long as the temperature dropped, he would naturally wake up.

But now things backfired.

"Chi Wu, can you hear me?" Cheng Yan touched his ear, his voice was low but pleading, "Hurry up and wake up."

Chi Wu slept for three days.

Cheng Yan didn't sleep for three days.

Even though Gu Ran and Wen Bo came down many times and said they would watch over him, Cheng Yan did not leave.

On the third night, Gu Ran and Wen Bo came to Chi Wu's house in a hurry, and brought back a timid woman.

After Chi Wu fell asleep, they searched a large area of ​​the third world for people who were on the same ladder as Chi Wu, and finally asked about this woman.

But she seemed to be in a state of panic when she stepped out of the ladder because of something terrible. Gu Ran comforted her for a long time before repeating what she said before: "I... I was the first one to come out, Chi Wu, Chi Wu should have come out too, I saw that he had a diamond in his hand..."

"What is supposed?" Cheng Yan asked him.

Perhaps it was his hoarse and tired voice and cold eyes that frightened the woman. She trembled all over and almost fell off the chair.

"I don't know," she cried, "I only know about him. He killed someone, and he robbed the diamond from that person... You can pass the level if you have diamonds. That's what he told me at the time, I It's indeed cleared..."

Cheng Yan looked at her with dark eyes: "What is your ladder like, you can explain it clearly from the beginning to the end."

The woman was extremely unwilling to recall, so Cheng Yan took out a gold coin from his pocket and gave it to her: "I'll give it to you when I make it clear."

"It's not that I don't want to say it, it's really too scary, too difficult... Our ladder is really too difficult..."
