Ten Days End

"I thought it was a 'god'..." Chu Tianqiu interrupted, "I spent almost ten years proving that there was a 'god' more powerful than Tianlong in this place. I took countless notes, but I found that there was no such thing at all."

"Ten years." Qi Xia said, "I didn't expect it to take so long."

"At first I did want to give up." Chu Tianqiu said, "But there is someone like Aunt Tong in the 'Land of the End'. She firmly believes that there is a great 'Mother Goddess' here. I'm not sure whether this is misleading or revelation to me, so I spent more time looking for the 'Mother Goddess', and even later directly recruited Aunt Tong to the 'Heaven's Entrance'. I thought this would be closer to the 'Mother Goddess', but I didn't expect..."

"But I didn't expect the real answer was not the 'Mother Goddess'...?" Qi Xia asked tentatively.

"Yes." Chu Tianqiu said, "I used all the methods Aunt Tong said, but I couldn't find evidence of the existence of the 'Mother Goddess'. I think our constant rebirth here comes from a tyrannical 'echo'..."

"But the 'Mother Goddess' does exist. "Qi Xia said.

"What...?" Chu Tianqiu was startled, as if he had heard the most unbelievable words in his life.

"I have seen traces of her, she really exists." Qi Xia said.

"What are you kidding..." Chu Tianqiu frowned and said, "Qi Xia, you are too crazy, I have traveled to almost every corner of the "End Land", and there is no trace of the so-called "Mother Goddess" here, and you actually said that she really exists... It's not the final stage yet, you have lost your mind?"

"I'm not crazy." Qi Xia said, "I saw her face once."

"You..."

"I even thought you had seen her too." Qi Xia pointed at Chu Tianqiu's coat, "Do you remember your notes? You wrote that someone gambled all the "zodiac signs" to death, and a gorgeous goddess descended from the sky and took him away."

"But that was made up..." Chu Tianqiu said indifferently.

"Off topic. "Qi Xia said, "Now I don't want to discuss the matter of the "Mother Goddess" with you, I just want you to know that everything about you is under my observation, and I have been watching you. You are the first person in the whole land to investigate everything so clearly. You boldly guessed that there is a stronger "echo" in this place, but you don't know that it is called "Endless Life", but you realize that this "echo" may come from me. "

Chu Tianqiu frowned and said nothing. He received too much information beyond his understanding in an instant, and some scattered memories began to attack from all directions.

The whole person just stood there in a daze, digesting the information that kept pouring into his mind.

For some reason, it seems that the memory recovers faster in this space than in the "End of the Land".

"Chu Tianqiu, whether you believe it or not, I always need someone who firmly believes that he can become a "god" to board the "train" with me. "Qi Xia said again, "Remember? Why did the earth dragon make a deal with you? "

Chu Tianqiu was stunned for a moment, thinking of the time when he just joined the predecessor of "Tiantangkou", Dilong took the initiative to show up and asked for a trade.

After thinking it over again and again, he felt that it was not a bad thing to exchange eyeballs with Dilong for food, and then agreed.

Why did Dilong appear at that time... and why did he find him?

"Tiantangkou" became the most powerful organization at that time because of its constant supply of stable food.

The reason given by Dilong at the beginning was just "I think you are suitable", but I had just joined the early "Tiantangkou", and at that time, even the name "Tiantangkou" did not exist. How did Dilong know that I was suitable?

"It seems that it is not Dilong who thinks I am suitable, but you who think I am suitable?" Chu Tianqiu asked.

"That's right, so you don't have to be too modest." Qi Xia said, "You have always been a strong man I recognize, and you are also the most suitable person for this road. After all, you always feel that you are out of tune with the people around you. Although you don't look down on "mortals" like Tianlong and Qinglong... but in the final analysis, it's almost the same. This is the first trait of becoming a "god" in my opinion. "

"But Qi Xia..." Chu Tianqiu said, "Now I'm "running away" in the game, I can't survive, how can I go to the "front of the car" with you?"

"Not necessarily." Qi Xia said, "I recalled the "rules", no one said that "running away" will die, that's just our guess."

"Even if that's true... but our team has no "head coach", if the game is lost, the whole team will die."

Qi Xia paused after hearing this, and replied: "If no one in your team dies, are you willing to agree to my request?? "

Chu Tianqiu chuckled after hearing this: "Qi Xia, are you going to use "Endless Life" to revive all my teammates...? Do you think this simple method will make me willingly work for you?"

"No, of course not." Qi Xia said, "Chu Tianqiu, now that things have come to this, I will make another bet with you. I bet that Qinglong will willingly let your entire team go."

"What...?" Chu Tianqiu asked in disbelief, ""Willingly"...?"

"What I want to show you is not the power of "Endless Life", but the power of "Layout". Even someone like Qinglong will be defeated by "Layout". "Qi Xia said, "You can wait outside the door, and everything will soon have a result. "

Chu Tianqiu looked at Qi Xia in confusion, and couldn't guess what would happen next.

And Qinglong in the stands was obviously unable to sit still.

He could only see Qi Xia half of his body go into the door and then there was no movement. After a few seconds, he turned his head and said to Dilong: "Isn't this a foul?"

"It's indeed not a foul." Dilong said, "Chu Tianqiu is considered "fleeing", Qi Xia just stuck his head out to check the situation, and his body is still in the door. Maybe he was just saying goodbye to Chu Tianqiu?"

"This farewell is too long." Qinglong said again, "How long will it take for the game to end?"

"Only one or two minutes left." Dilong said, "Now Chu Tianqiu's side no longer has a "coach", and if nothing unexpected happens, Qi Xia wins."

As the two were talking, Qi Xia retracted his upper body, then stuffed his hands into his pockets, and then gently closed the "door".

After everything was settled, he no longer checked all the "words" on the ground, but went directly to the "door". Just as he was about to open the "door" and leave, he heard a crisp "clatter" again.

This time the sound was particularly clear, and it didn't sound like an auditory hallucination at all.

Qi Xia squatted down and looked carefully at the pile of "words" he had just dropped.

He did not hear wrong, the pile of "words" moved.

But what caused the "words" to move...?

He reached out and flipped the pile of "words" on the ground, but they were already lying here quietly, without any reaction.

Hearing this sound once might be a coincidence, maybe the "words" were not piled up steadily, but hearing it twice in a row was no longer a coincidence.

Qi Xia set his sights on the two "scholars" leaning against each other quietly.

If there is anything strange among these "words", it can only be the "scholars".

Qi Xia reached out and picked up the crooked "Shi" made by Tiantian, looked at it carefully for a few seconds, and then shook it. A strange idea sprouted in Qi Xia's mind - Could it be that the "Shi" made by Tiantian was not hollow, but had some mechanism inside?
