In the boundless darkness, Cheng Yu only felt that sentence kept coming to his ears:

Kong Ming's lonely city, Kuang Sima.

Life and death are impermanent, don't look back.

The body seemed to be out of control and kept falling.Can't see a light, can't touch anything.Only that sentence kept echoing in my ears.

The lonely city of Kong Ming, Kuang Sima...

Life and death are impermanent, don't look back...

Who is Kong Ming?Who is Sima?

Cheng Yu, who was deep in the darkness, couldn't help thinking about this question.

The exam question for the Three Kingdoms Killing was Kongming Kuang Sima, and the only thing Cheng Yu could think of was the description about the empty city strategy when he watched "Three Kingdoms" in the past.

When Gu Shi woke up, he was lying in the rubble of gunpowder smoke.He closed his eyes for a while to get used to it, and finally got up, he was the only one around.

"It seems that it is indeed a hidden surprise egg. I am afraid this is a fantasy created by him."

After everyone enters here, they are in a state of being separated, and they need to find their own teammates.

Gu Shi looked around, carefully hiding himself.

Now that they have entered the game, it means that Shen Luo and Heiqi have also entered.

Although there were more people on their side and only two people on the other side, Gu Shi was still worried.

This is the first time he has entered the illusion here.He had never encountered any of the Five King Kongs in the script and content of the previous Three Kingdoms Killing. Thinking about it now, he couldn't help feeling chills down his spine, and couldn't help sighing: "Could it be... this is also one of your plans."

The only answer to him was the cold wind blowing past his ears.

He thought of Shen Luo's words, that guy seemed to have come prepared, when he saw himself and Cheng Yu, the excitement factor in his body almost burst out.

It is rumored that the five King Kongs under the Book of Life and Death are the five pillars of the entire campus.

They respect the order of the book of life and death, and play with everyone who comes in in this fantasy hunting ground, watching them collapse and helpless, struggling on the edge of life and death, watching their spirits being stripped away bit by bit, watching their souls being shattered... Smashing them into pieces, watching their bodies disappear piece by piece... In the end, they became an inconspicuous puppet, puppet, toy, or decoration.

Gu Shi's memory is recovering bit by bit. The memories that were forcibly taken away in the past are slowly coming back from the moment he entered here.

The familiar past is reawakened.

"Take this city as a gift from me to accompany you. Xiao Gu, promise me to live..."

"The darkness will burn out, and you will be reborn."

"Sinking is not the fate I choose, but the end I am willing to walk on."

"I have never been a good person. You changed me... But I have been in the dark for too long, and I have long been used to what is darkness. You let me touch the light, which is a bit of a fantasy."

"Xiao Gushi, you are really naive."

"If it weren't for my time, I really want to see what the light in your mouth looks like..."

"Forget about this place and me in the future, and go find your light."

"Don't look back, wherever I go, there is darkness."

……

That was the most familiar voice that lingered in Gu Shi's ears when his memory was washed over and over again.

It is also the motivation for him to persevere.

Breathing became heavy, and two faces appeared back and forth in Gu Shi's mind.

One is the book of life and death, and the other is Chengyu.

They obviously have the same face, but Gu Shi can tell them apart.

The one looking at him tenderly with a slight smile is his unfamiliar yet familiar book of life and death.

And that grumpy and angry cursing is Cheng Yu, who he is familiar with but unfamiliar.

He didn't understand the book of life and death, nor did he understand Cheng Yu.But at the same time he knew them, and understood the connection and the difference between them.

That feeling of knowing everything but being unable to touch it made Gu Shi walk between collapses.

"Gu Shi!" Grandma's voice woke him up in time.

Gu Shi looked up, she was standing on an attic, looking down at herself, the street was empty.Even the sound of the wind beside my ears didn't know when it stopped.

"Did you see anyone else?" Grandma jumped down from the top with a quick movement, and walked in front of Gu Shi.

Gu Shi shook his head, he just woke up not long ago.

"What are you thinking?" Grandma keenly sensed that something was on Gu Shi's mind.

Gu Shi withdrew his messy thoughts, looked at the reborn grandma who was in charge of his body, turned his eyes, and said seriously: "Since you are on our team, when facing the black knight—"

"You don't need to remind me, I already know it in my heart." Grandma looked around, "Before I woke up, a voice in my mind told me that life and death are impermanent, don't turn back. The road was chosen by Master Heiqi, and it was also me. I chose it myself. No matter what our reasons are, since the confrontation is a foregone conclusion, I will abide by the rules and go all out, and leave the rest to God to make a decision. I think that Lord Black Cavalry also thinks so in his heart Yes. After all, we have been trapped here for so long, life and death seem to have no temptation, and freedom and liberation have become the only pursuits in our hearts. Isn't it?"

"..." Gu Shi didn't answer the question.

His purpose is different from others.

The things and memories left in the book of life and death are not for him to escape here and forget the past.Instead, he wants to end this dark world and illusion with his own hands.

Lou Yan's words before his death made him understand some thoughts about the Book of Life and Death.

Cheng Yu's appearance was not accidental, it was like a shock on the ground, which gave him warmth and concern in his usual wandering life.It also gave his body, which has been restarted and destroyed several times, a new understanding of the past.

The two shuttled through the empty city one after another, carefully observing the surroundings while searching for traces of other people.

Soon after, Huang Tai and Jinke were found, as well as Mingxi and Huanhuan.

"Have you seen Cheng Yu?"

Gu Shi looked at them and asked.

Everyone had already gathered, but Cheng Yu was missing, which made Gu Shi, who was previously restless, even more uneasy.

He is clear and understands the strength of the black knight, but for Shen Luo, he only knows about this person and has not had a deep understanding of him.From the man's previous words, Gu Shi knew that besides being the person who wrote the question for the entire campus, he also had the identity of the Five King Kongs who sat down in the book of life and death.

According to what Shen Luo said, two of the five king vajras were folded in the hidden easter egg Three Kingdoms Killing, which is the illusion they are in now.

So besides Shen Luo, who are the remaining two king kong?

Is it in the main building?

What is the relationship between the Five King Kong and the Book of Life and Death?

Why did Shen Luo want to check the secrets of the book of life and death?

"No," Jinke looked at him and replied, "I was lying in a wine cellar when I woke up, and it was Qingming who pulled me up. Later we met Jinke and Huanhuan. Chongqing."

Didn't see it?

Gu Shi looked into the distance.

The empty streets are still deserted, or the whole city is an empty city.

Grandma knew that Gu Shi was worried about Cheng Yu, even though the two sometimes had conflicts, they should have each other in their hearts.

"Let's look for it again. As long as he comes in like us, he will always appear."

At this time, Gu Shi looked up at the sky not far away, and murmured: "I hope he won't show up..."

"That might disappoint you!"

Someone came out of the room behind them, staring at Gu Shi's back with scorching eyes, as if he wanted to stare at that broad and thick back.

When grandma saw Cheng Yu, she became more cautious. Although she was happy, she seemed to have become a lot more stable since she recovered her body.

She looked at the person and said, "Cheng Yu, you know that Gu Shi didn't mean that, he just wanted you to be safe."

"Really?" Cheng Yu stepped forward and stood in front of Gu Shi.

Gu Shi stared at him blankly, then frowned suddenly, and said, "What's the smell on you?"

As soon as he said this, the others slowly smelled the faint scent.

Cheng Yu smiled charmingly, "The smell of the dead." He deliberately raised his arm in front of everyone, and sniffed, "When I just woke up, I found two corpses lying next to me. I thought it was Some unlucky one of us or Shen Luohei rode them, but it turned out to be neither, hehe~ Guess who are those two unlucky ones?"

"Shen Mian and Le Sheng." Gu Shi met his eyes and said solemnly.

Cheng Yu walked around Gu Shi and applauded. Huang Tai took the opportunity to ask him, "Apart from the two corpses, are there any other clues? For example, customs clearance cheats, hidden missions, etc.?"

Cheng Yu glanced back at him, covered his stomach and laughed: "Brother, you think we play games here. Return clues, clear cheats, and hide missions. Hehe~"

He looked at Gu Shi again and asked, "Do you know why Kong Ming dared to bang Sima?"

Gu Shi was puzzled, Cheng Yu walked up to him, leaned close to his ear, and whispered: "The mentality of a gambler. This is an empty city. Although the streets and alleys extend in all directions, you can't go to the end, and you can't see the so-called city gates and gates." The turrets surrounding the wind. Guess, at this moment, are Shen Luo and Hei Qi wandering around here like us, or are they waiting outside the city where we can't see?"

"..." Gu Shi's eyes darkened, and his heart sank.

He hadn't thought about these issues yet, but Cheng Yu thought about them one step ahead of him.

Cheng Yu continued to whisper in his ear: "When we saw the blank rice paper, the script of the Three Kingdoms Killing had already begun. There are no so-called easter eggs and hidden tasks. We are all designed models, walking towards a life and death book result of the plan."

"What do you mean?!" Gu Shi looked at him.

Cheng Yu dragged the people towards the room he came out of just now, and the others followed.

But the moment he approached the door, Cheng Yu turned around and said angrily: "If you don't want to die, you stay outside. Grandma is in charge of guarding."

Everyone looked at Cheng Yu in surprise, wondering what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd.

But Gu Shi was willing to believe him, he glanced at his grandma, who nodded after considering it.

Huang Tai and Jin Ke stretched their necks, and they didn't spy out what was in the room from the moment they entered.

Mingxi and Huanhuan glanced at each other, their eyes were obscure, and finally fell on the grandma at the door.

"Don't you wonder what the two of them are doing inside without telling us?" Huanhuan said.

Grandma put her hands in her pockets, leaning on the pillar at the door, with an indifferent expression: "Since the strength is not comparable to others, why should you know so many secrets that you shouldn't know. Enough is not only polite, sometimes it is also a kind of self-protection."

inside the house.

Gu Shi followed Cheng Yu upstairs, and there was nothing in the empty lobby on the first floor.

The two went straight to the second floor.

At the stairway on the second floor, there were two corpses lying there, the distance between them was no more than two meters.Apparently, it has been dead for a long time.

"They are two of the Five Great Vajras mentioned by Shen Luo, the librarian Mo Wang Shen Mian and the boiler room Qin Wang Le Sheng. I have checked their causes of death, and there are almost no internal injuries, but they were frightened to death by being driven crazy by themselves."

Cheng Yu stood aside, pointing to the two corpses on the ground.

Gu Shi squatted down and took a look, "The people outside can see what you said. I'm afraid it's not what you want to tell me."

"Smart!" Cheng Yu snapped his fingers, "Look carefully at their eyes."

Gu Shi followed suit, and soon, he discovered what Cheng Yu wanted to tell him.

The pupils of the two lying on the ground dilated, reflecting the things above their heads.

That's what makes them actually die.

The two looked up and saw that it was a painting.

It's called Empty City Hellfire.

After careful observation, it was found that there was still a century-old plan hidden in the book of life and death.

"Do you know what it means?" Cheng Yu asked him.

Gu Shi glanced at him and said, "Not sure."

"Not sure, let's talk about it, maybe we can discuss it and we can figure it out." Cheng Yu said.

Gu Shi stood up, recalling the scenes of getting along with the Book of Life and Death, and said: "He always said that he is a person who is deep in the darkness of hell..."

Cheng Yu snorted softly: "When you say him, do you mean the book of life and death?"

"Hmm." For the book of life and death, Gu Shi seemed to always have a special feeling in his heart.The person who pulled him into the abyss with his own hands buried his nightmare with his own hands, and sent him out of the abyss to pursue the so-called light and freedom.

Cheng Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and faced him: "Then you don't need to say anything, I will tell you the answer directly."

"The killing of the Three Kingdoms is not a so-called exam question at all, but the book of life and death, please enter the urn. Before I came in, I stubbornly thought that it would be related to the empty city strategy, and there would be a confrontation between the two armies. But in fact, those are just my own. The Arabian Nights, I don’t understand your so-called book of life and death. When I knew some connections between him and you and me, plus those I experienced along the way and the changes in my body, I figured it out One thing, that is, this illusion is the book of life and death, using you and me to set up a trap for the five kings, he hopes to end them here, he wants to destroy everything here, except you."

Gu Shi was shocked by Cheng Yu's words.

He didn't know what Cheng Yu went through before he appeared.

But what he was sure of was that after Cheng Yu woke up, he definitely hadn't just been here.

"Don't look at me with that look," Cheng Yu smiled, a little casually, "The so-called Kong Ming kuang Sima is just for Shen Luo and the others. In this empty city illusion, who is Kong Ming? Who is Sima? In the beginning, it wasn’t us who had the final say, but you and the book of life and death they had been looking for.”

Cheng Yu jumped onto a stool beside him, looked down at the two corpses on the ground, stretched out his right hand, and the Yin-Yang life-and-death sword behind Gu Shi's back hung steadily in front of him, and the sword was unsheathed.

"You—" Gu Shi looked at the person in front of him, and was speechless for a while: "..."

Cheng Yu laughed loudly, his slender fingers slashed across the long sword, blood slid down the blade, and finally dripped on the ground, and the words flowed out in a gloomy and trembling voice: "Do you want to ask me, is it a book of life and death or a book of success? Yu?"
