This Damned Thirst for Survival

The LCD monitor in the elevator clearly displayed Wen Renlian's death process before Jiang Luo's eyes.

Wen Renlian could choose to pass the level, but he chose to die.Jiang Luo's face changed back and forth, and he couldn't tell what it was like.

The surveillance camera in the elevator was pointing at him, as if admiring the sudden change in the dark-haired young man's face with great interest.Even if Jiang Luo knew that Chi You might be watching his expression leisurely from behind, he couldn't control his expression.

Feeling restless and complicated.

Because Wen Renlian died in a different way from the previous three companions.

But this was the result of Wen Renlian's active choice, and Jiang Luo could not object or stop it.Wen Renlian must have his own reasons for doing this, at least he still had a smile on his face when he died.

But watching people die in front of his own eyes, Jiang Luo still couldn't suppress his unhappiness.

Chi You is an evil ghost. He grew up in an environment full of malice. All the darkness and pain he experienced pulled him into the abyss and soaked in the muddy mire.

During this process, he understood that the strong preyed on the weak, and this dream fully reflected his crazy spiritual world.People in the world are ups and downs in the sea of ​​suffering, and become ugly in the struggle of human nature. All these are the appearances Chi You is most familiar with.

Jiang Luo became more and more aware of how dangerous this world was.

Especially for kind people.

Soon, the figure of the second companion appeared on the LCD monitor, Kuang Zheng.

Perhaps Wen Renlian's death made the foreshadowing, Jiang Luo quickly calmed down, and he focused on Kuangzheng's every move.

Like Wen Renlian, Kuang Zheng also stepped into a dream within a dream.

But the difference is that Kuang Zheng's dream within a dream is very warm and harmonious.

A small room is divided into several spaces by curtains.Jiang Luo knew that there was a younger sister in Kuangzheng's family, but it was the first time he knew that Kuangzheng's father was still disabled.

On the bed, the thin middle-aged man's left leg was broken to the heel, and his right leg was atrophied.He was struggling to get out of bed, and Kuangzheng's younger sister blushed and tried to help her father.At the door separated by a curtain, Kuang Zheng's mother was cooking with a soft expression.

After Kuang's father was sweating profusely and came back from using the toilet with a cane, he stood behind Kuang's mother and watched for a while. Although his face was full of vicissitudes, his expression was positive and relaxed. He smiled and said, "This morning How about baked cookies? Look at the smell, it's really delicious."

Kuang's mother smiled, "Your daughter looked at the cake shop several times yesterday, and she was almost drooling. I wanted to bite the bullet and buy her a cake for her to taste, but she didn't want it. I'll come back Afterwards, I thought about baking a cookie for her, isn’t it all made by Tian Sisi? The taste is probably about the same.”

Kuang's father turned his head to look at his daughter beside him, and gently patted her head, "Want to eat cake from afar? Wait until the end of this month, and ask your brother to take you to buy one."

The younger sister stared at the cookies in the pan and swallowed, her voice was immature but very sensible, "I don't want to eat cakes from afar, I want to eat cookies from afar."

Kuang's father and Kuang's mother looked at each other and smiled.

Although the house was dilapidated and small, the Kuang family kept it clean.The window was opened, and the morning light penetrated into the room. There were a few blooming wild flowers on the window sill, and there were clear drops of water on the wild flowers.The window curtains are woven bell ropes made by my sister.

When the wind blows, there is a melodious tinkle.

Kuang's mother put the food on the table, and there was also a vase on the table with a bouquet of vibrant winter jasmine flowers in it.

The door was opened for air, and the family of three inside the door smiled happily. The pain of poverty and the decline of life seemed to be defeated by their respect and seriousness for life, and there was no shadow on their faces.

Jiang Luo looked a little absent-minded.

With such a family, it is no wonder that Kuang Zheng has such an honest character.

Kuangzheng was standing at the door, watching this scene with a smile.His eyes were soft, and the parents and younger sister in the house also saw him and hurriedly asked him to come in for dinner.

He walked in, sat next to his sister, and ate with his head down in silence. Kuang Zheng didn't like to talk, but he silently handed the things his family needed to them.

Everything is very warm and beautiful.

But Jiang Luo knew that such warmth would definitely be broken.

Sure enough, a group of people soon broke into Kuang Zheng's home.They smashed the steaming food on the table, pushed the panicked father and mother to the ground, and wanted to take away Kuangzheng's younger sister, "Oh, this little girl looks good, and you can sell it for a lot of money if you take it away. Since the family has no money to pay back, don't blame us for taking your daughter away!"

Kuang's father huddled up on the ground in pain, and when he heard this, he was angry and anxious, "Our family never owes anyone money!"

A group of people with kitchen knives and axes smiled and didn't care about his words at all.They walked around the room, and when they saw that there was nothing to grab, their faces darkened.

"It's fucking unlucky, why is this family so poor, it's a waste of time!"

"Damn, there is nothing, no wonder you dare to open the door to eat."

"Brother Liu, shall we search for the next one?"

Brother Liu said impatiently: "Bring me with you, let's go."

The younger sister cried and struggled desperately, while Kuang's mother hugged his thigh and shouted with all her strength: "Come on! Come on! Someone is robbing the child!"

Brother Liu kicked her furiously, "Lady, do you still dare to call someone?!"

Kuang Zheng was forcefully pressed to the ground by his two accomplices, he struggled out of breath, overturned the two people on his body with all his strength, and snatched his sister from Brother Liu.

Brother Liu smiled darkly, "Boy, are you going to fight against me?"

Kuang Zheng helped his parents up, pushed his sister and them behind him, and looked at the stranger who broke into the house defensively, "I will not let you hurt my family."

Brother Liu was holding a kitchen knife, and he was obviously irritated.Kuang Zheng rushed towards him pre-emptively, but after grabbing Brother Liu's hands and snatching the kitchen knife, he suddenly saw a line of writing appearing on the ceiling.

[Close the door and leave, you can pass this level and reach the eighteenth floor]

leave?

Kuang Zheng's struggle stopped, and he looked at the line blankly.

Is this for him to watch his family being bullied and turn a blind eye?

He was silent for a short moment, and continued with the movements in his hands.

Even if he knew it was fake, he couldn't turn a blind eye...

Jiang Luo closed his eyes, and he could already guess what the ending of Kuang Zheng would be.

After a while, he opened his eyes, and he saw the death scene of Kuang Zheng's body covered with kitchen knives and axes.

Kuang Zheng and Wen Renlian were the same, they both chose to die, but they all wore contented smiles when they died.

Jiang Luo's heart was already very peaceful.

He waited patiently for Ye Xun to appear.

Later, the content of Ye Xun stepping into the elevator also appeared on the monitor.

Ye Xun's final result was the same as Wen Renlian and Kuang Zheng's. In order to protect his mother who was about to die, Ye Xun refused the opportunity to go to the eighteenth floor, but died in the illusion.

Jiang Luo didn't know why Chi You wanted to show him the live broadcast, just like he didn't know whether to be angry or pleased with his companions who would rather die than stick to their hearts.

Jiang Luo pursed his lips, and after the monitor went off, he quietly waited for his own dream within a dream to begin.

Judging from the experience of Wen Renlian to Ye Xun, what he saw in the elevator was undoubtedly the most terrifying fantasy in his heart.Wen Renlian brought back to life the stepfather he had killed, Kuang Zheng's cherished family was destroyed, and Ye Xun was the death of his mother.

Thinking about it from another angle, this is also the deepest desire of the three of them.

Wen Renlian wanted to make sure that his stepfather died, Kuangzheng wanted to protect his family, and Ye Xun wanted to save his mother.

So what everyone sees is a picture of fear and desire intertwined?

Jiang Luo was thoughtful, he was already prepared for seeing those trash parents.

A few seconds later, the elevator door slowly opened.

Jiang Luo raised his eyelids and looked casually, but when he saw something outside the elevator, his eyelids suddenly jumped.

What appeared in front of his eyes was not the pair of trash parents, but Chi You, who was leaning against the corner and dying.

Chi You was no more than two or three meters away from him, sitting on the corner of the wall with his head hanging, his life and death unknown.

His slender legs almost occupied most of the elevator corridor, one pale hand was resting on his abdomen, while the other was hanging powerlessly by his side, blood flowed from his wrist, soaking a large area of ​​the ground.

The normally neat suit was slightly disheveled at this time, Jiang Luo could only see Chi You's pale chin and thin lips that had lost all color.

The blood seemed to bloom a rotten flower under him.But even in such a weak state, the evil spirit sitting in the corner has a somewhat contradictory and attractive charm.

His posture is embarrassed, but it seems elegant and charming.Both dangerous and deceptive.

It seems that as long as you get close to the evil spirit, you will find that he has never been in a coma, but with dark and strange eyes open, with a cold and twisted smile, waiting for others to fall into his trap.

But it seems to have lost consciousness, which can make people act recklessly.

Such as oppressing him, taming him, killing him...

Jiang Luo's Adam's apple moved slightly, but he soon recovered.

After recovering, his expression suddenly became weird.

If his previous deduction is correct, and the illusion that everyone sees is the most feared thing and deepest desire in his heart, then what does it mean when he sees Chi You?

What he fears most is Chi You's death?

The deepest desire is to do whatever you want with Chi You, or to become Chi You's savior?

Jiang Luo: "..."

He shuddered.

impossible.

how can that be.

At this time, the blood under Chi You's body slowly formed a line of familiar characters.

[Ignore him, close the door and leave, you can pass this level and reach the eighteenth floor]

Jiang Luo didn't hesitate for almost a second, he immediately pressed the door close button in the elevator, fearing that the elevator would close too slowly, he pressed it four or five times in a row.

The elevator doors closed slowly, and the elevator carrying the black-haired youth headed for the eighteenth floor.

The evil ghost sitting against the wall outside the elevator door slowly raised his head.

He opened his closed eyes and watched the rising elevator, the corners of his mouth slowly curled up, and his arms rested casually on his knees.

The blood under his body was gradually sucked by the floor, and the evil ghost slowly wiped the blood off his hands. The twinkle in his eyes was like a poisonous snake spitting out a snake letter, "I really didn't hesitate for a second, so I just left."
