"Chen Zhifei?" Ding Bai looked at the person in front of him in disbelief and kept repeating that name.

"Chen Zhifei, Chen Zhifei, Chen Zhifei..." He greedily read those three words, holding the neck of the person in front of him tightly with his hands, as if he was afraid that he would lose the person in front of him again in the next second.

"Hey, I'm here." Chen Zhifei put his arms around Ding Bai, and answered Ding Bai's call tirelessly over and over again. Like Ding Bai, he was afraid that the next second would be parting again.

The hug lasted for a long time, and this was the first time they hugged for such a long time, as if they were healing, using the familiar body temperature of each other to heal that terrible time.

"I thought I was crazy." Ding Bai leaned on Chen Zhifei's shoulder and appealed his own story during this period of time. "Afterwards, everyone in the community disappeared. I searched everywhere, but there was no one there."

Strangeness and fear surrounded Ding Bai at that time. He thought he was still strong, but his hope was slowly being consumed in that empty space.He even became obsessed with the time when he met Chen Zhifei in his dream, and he was so intoxicated that he couldn't extricate himself.

"So, the you in the dream has always been you." Chen Zhifei said lightly after listening.

Ding Bai rubbed against his shoulder, suddenly noticed what he said, felt a little strange, so he raised his eyes and said to him: "What do you mean that you are always you in the dream?"

Chen Zhifei smiled, then sighed and said, "I've been dreaming too, from the first game you entered the game to now, I've been in every game."

"So, the you I dreamed about is actually you!" Ding Bai grasped the point, and it turned out that the person he thought was in his dream was actually Chen Zhifei.

They met in dreams several times, but they didn't expect that the panic-stricken person was right in front of them.

"Blame me, I didn't see the clue earlier." Chen Zhifei smiled bitterly and said, he really just thought it was just a dream, but he didn't expect that Ding Bai was actually in a dream.

The two looked at each other, and finally sighed helplessly.Going around and around, you have always been in front of my eyes, it's just that I didn't notice it at the time.

"The dream is about to wake up." Chen Zhifei said that in every dream, as long as the person in the game finds the golden flower card, it indicates that the dream is about to wake up.

So is this dream.

"Ding Bai." Chen Zhifei called Ding Bai's name, he reached out to hold Ding Bai's face, he could guess how much Ding Bai was suffering alone in that empty space, "The last game, You said you want to take me out, you must do it."

Ding Bai looked at the person in front of him, only felt that the surroundings were getting brighter and brighter, and finally he couldn't see Chen Zhifei's face clearly anymore, and he opened his eyes from the couch curled up.

This was the first time in so many days that Ding Bai felt hungry, and his internal organs seemed to be clamoring. The appearance of Chen Zhifei rekindled his dying will to survive.

He stood up from the sofa falteringly, and he fell heavily to the ground as soon as he took a step with his floating steps. After he groaned in pain, he continued to stand up.

The refrigerator was empty, even the water was exhausted.Like a homeless man, he leaned into the faucet and took two sips of tap water. The taste of the tap water was indeed not very good, but he couldn't care about anything else at the moment.

His dry throat finally felt a little wet. He staggered downstairs and went straight to the commissary.

Fortunately, there was no one around, otherwise seeing his appearance like a starving ghost would scare many people.It swept across the shelves like a gust of wind, and within a short while he had a lot of food in his hands.

Before leaving, he took out 500 yuan from his pocket and patted it on the cash register.

When eating, he was choked several times because he was anxious, and he didn't put down what he was holding until he couldn't eat any more.Suddenly, as if in a daze, Ding Bai started laughing, smiling towards the ground, towards the sky, and lying on the ground laughing.

He laughed at himself for recovering in the end; he laughed that the gamble didn't kill him after all.

After gaining hope, Ding Bai seemed to be a different person suddenly. He was still nostalgic for Chen Zhifei in his dream, but he began to forget about his absurd practices these days, and began to review where this gambling game started.

And how to get out of this gamble.

Everything started after the end of the little ghost game. After the old lady threw the dice, it seemed to symbolize the beginning of the big ghost game.

Chen Zhifei should have appeared in the big ghost game at the same time, but although they were both in the big ghost game, they were in different places.

For example, he is now in the place he is most familiar with. If Chen Zhifei's situation is the same, it means that he is also in the place he is most familiar with now.

The place Chen Zhifei is most familiar with should be that gloomy city, where Chen Zhifei lived in the gambling game.

But this has nothing to do with Ding Bai's place, so how should the two of them get out of this gamble?

On the other side, Chen Zhifei stood on the top of the building and looked down at this busy city. This was indeed the gray city he was familiar with, but now the city has changed.

Gray disappeared, replaced by color, and all buildings returned to their proper colors.Those recurring NPCs have also been replaced and turned into living people instead.

They no longer appeared repeatedly, and the people on the street began to become various. After meeting someone by chance, they would never meet again.

Everything seems to be back on track.

It was also because of this that he began to wonder if he was out of the game, until the dreams began to appear.Appearing again and again, at that moment Chen Zhifei realized that he was still in the game.

At first, he was obsessed with dreams like Ding Bai, and even wanted to stay in the dream forever.Until last night's dream, the strange Ding Bai made him feel something was wrong, and he suddenly felt that the Ding Bai in the dream seemed to be his Ding Bai.

The conjecture was later confirmed, and it turned out that they had been in front of each other all along.

It was at this time that Chen Zhifei woke up, and it turned out that the so-called big ghost game was like this.Create the illusion that it's over, so that you think you have left the game, but you don't know that you are still in the game.

The sky was getting dark, and the lights between the high-rise buildings were turned on. Chen Zhifei, who was used to the gray surroundings, began to feel a little uncomfortable with this colorful world, but he was still happy in his heart, because it was already dark, which represented tonight In his dream, he will be able to see Ding Bai again.

"Have you been waiting for a long time?" Chen Zhifei said when he saw Ding Bai, and soon he couldn't help laughing, "So it was this scene."

Ding Bai also knew from the sudden height difference that this gamble was the one in the orphanage, he sighed helplessly, because in this one, he could only become a child.

"Let's go." Chen Zhifei took Ding Bai's hand and walked forward. After walking for a while, Ding Bai realized that something was wrong. Chen Zhifei did not go directly to the dormitory building, but took him to the classroom of the orphanage.

"Aren't we going back to the dormitory?" Ding Bai asked.

"It doesn't matter, it's just a dream anyway." Chen Zhifei said, "The most important thing for us now is to find a way to clear the big ghost game."

That's right, I've been dreaming all the time lately, but I've forgotten the most important point.

Chen Zhifei turned on the lights in the classroom. Since it was in a dream, the rules of the game that originally belonged to the orphanage were basically invalidated. The setting of turning off the lights at nine o'clock was naturally unbreakable.

He picked up a piece of chalk, drew a vertical line on the blackboard, and wrote many words on it.Ding Bai stood beside him and took a look and understood what he meant.

He is replaying the story line of this gamble.

Therefore, Ding Bai also picked up the chalk and drew his own timeline. After a while, there were many arrows and words densely packed on the blackboard.

Two clear timelines and storylines appeared in front of my eyes.

The time started from the little ghost game, and the two lines marked what happened to the two of them.By comparison, they found that the worlds of both Ding Bai and Chen Zhifei had undergone opposite changes.

Ding Bai's living environment, which was originally lively, has become an empty city, while Chen Zhifei's living environment, which was originally empty and cold, has become a bustling city.

The worlds of these two people seem to be reversed.

However, the key point is that even though they are in two completely different worlds, there is one thing that is going on at the same time, and that is - the dream!

Both Ding Bai's dream and Chen Zhifei's dream are at the same point in time, and the content of the dream is the same.

Could it be that the answer is really in the dream?

This conjecture appeared in the minds of both of them at the same time, and the thought that had been clueless for a long time seemed to be cracked, and more branches began to grow.

"If this is the case, maybe we can know how the big ghost game started when we dreamed of the little ghost game?" Ding Bai said.

"That might be the case." Chen Zhifei pondered for a while and said, "And, the Little Ghost Bureau is coming soon."

Ding Bai thought about it for a while, after coming out of the orphanage, completing the next game is the ghost game, which means that they are already very close to the truth.

But even so, this dream has to come again twice.

Perhaps guessing what Ding Bai was thinking, Chen Zhifei who was standing aside suddenly said, "Maybe it won't be long, this is our dream."

Can't you control your own dreams?

These dreams were once regarded as nightmares by Ding Bai, then turned into hopes, and then turned into... what they are now.

Chen Zhifei directly took out the golden flower card from the back of the group photo. It turned out that they had to waste a lot of effort to find the golden flower card. This person ran upstairs, took it down, and it was over.

"Let's go, next game." Chen Zhifei said.

Ding Bai: "..." Supernatural power, this is, if I had this ability in the gambling game before, wouldn't I be in the big ghost game long ago?

The latter gamble was also passed through without any effort, just like watching flowers on horseback.

They rushed all the way to the Little Ghost Bureau, and this is not the end, the original constipation-like plot of the Little Ghost Bureau was directly broken by Chen Zhifei, only to see Ai Ren staring at Chen Zhifei in a daze, they probably didn't understand how this person could be like this Solve all problems smoothly.

Then, they found the old lady who was guarding the door. As before, the old lady invited them to compete.

The two dice spun as in memory, with the same number of points.

Ding Bai cast those two dice confidently, and after tasting the sweetness of being in charge of his own dream, he is confident that he can throw two sixes even with a simple flick.

It's just that he didn't realize that the moment he threw the dice, the old lady smiled silently.

With a flash of white light, Ding Bai woke up from the bed.He quickly ran to the balcony and looked out, there was no one!

"How come?" Ding Bai murmured in disbelief, obviously they had reached the last moment, but why is it still like this?

Isn't this the point of this bet?

If not this, how on earth can I get out?

Ding Bai scratched his hair in a bit of annoyance, and all his plans changed again to no avail this time.
