Ten Days End

Aries took advantage of the last bit of time to explain the relevant matters to us.

He took out a "Liar" card and put it in front of him, then drew a simple map with a pen, and then said: "Zhang Qiang, I have hidden a human-goat mask on the second floor of the closet in this room. When you find it, put it on directly and rest on the spot. Someone will come to pick you up at night to go to the "train" to sign the contract. When the next reincarnation begins, you will be the "interviewer."

"That's it...?" Zhang Qiang took the card in disbelief.

"That's right." Aries said, "Your road will be smoother than anyone else, but you will also see the end too early."

"But this is not right..." Zhang Qiang blinked, "Although I really hope to settle down, it is so easy to become a "Zodiac". Don't you need to go through training?"

"No." Aries replied, "You will play my role in the new room and directly announce the rules of the "Liar". You say what I say."

"Ah...?" "Zhang Qiang said in surprise, "You mean... I will host the same game as you? And I only need to remember the rules of "Liar" for three games?"

"Yes, you only need to remember the rules of "Liar" and I can guarantee that you will never violate the rules." Aries slowly stepped forward and came to Zhang Qiang's side, "But there is a very important condition besides this. If you lose, you cannot aim at your temple when committing suicide, but you must aim the gun at your heart. "

"Why...?" Zhang Qiang was stunned for a moment, "If my body gets permanent "brute force"... then I shoot my heart with a pistol, it is possible that I will not die immediately...?"

"You will die anyway." Aries said, "Anyway, you will die, and you can live anyway, but you will not violate the rules only if you aim at your heart."

"But we have already cooperated. If you don't tell me the truth... I will be very uneasy." Zhang Qiang said, "Why can't you aim at your temple?"

"It's better for you not to know. "Aries said, "For example, if I tell you that 'because there are words in the mask, it cannot be destroyed', then you may want to see what words are in your mask when you are mentally ill, which will lead to violations, so I can't tell you the reason."

"This..." Zhang Qiang nodded slightly after hearing this, "So it's not because there are words in my mask? Then why...?"

"Don't ask." Aries said, "You only need to know that this is the first thing to pay attention to."

"Okay, then the second one is...?"

Aries came to Zhang Qiang and stretched out a hand and slowly placed it on his shoulder.

"The second thing to pay attention to is that if you find someone who looks like me, put your hand on his shoulder." Aries said, "If the other party responds to you, you will tell him everything I am saying to you now. If the other party does not respond, you will pretend that nothing happened."

"Very...very like you...?" Zhang Qiang seemed to have never thought that the situation would still be so difficult to understand after agreeing to Aries' request.

"That's right." Aries said, "The specific situation still cannot be said. ”

Zhang Qiang lowered his head and pondered for a long time, then asked, "You said before... this is a room where you can never be "promoted". ”

"Yeah."

"What's the reason...?" Zhang Qiang looked up at Aries, "Can you tell me?"

"That's fine." Aries nodded, "I will set up a special room, everyone in the room is a chess piece, and they have been strictly selected, so you can never be promoted."

After hearing this, Zhang Qiang took a deep breath, and many questions popped up in his mind again.

At this time, Aries looked at the clock on the table, and it was almost one o'clock, and said, "The Liar is about to end, I'm about to die, leave some time for Yan Zhichun."

After that, he looked at me: "Do you have anything to ask?"

"I..." I was stunned for a moment and thought for a few seconds, then said, "Will I be in that room?"

"What?"

"I mean..." I sorted out my words, "Will I be among the teammates you carefully selected? "

"No." Aries denied decisively, "I said, I knew nothing about the room before I came here, and I could only rely on gambling, so I had no way to count the people in this room."

"Then...how can I contact you?" I asked again.

"I can only say that now is not the time." Aries sighed, "But don't worry, one day I will find a way for you to find me."

"But...but what should I do before that?"

I haveI was a little confused. My goal is to become stronger, but if I can't contact Aries, how can I become stronger?

"I'll give you a problem to be solved." Aries said, "When you see me, tell me your answer."

"Problem...?"

"That's right." Aries thought for a while and said, "First, I need a way to make the people here full of despair and greatly increase the probability of "echo". The more powerful the person, the more desperate I will make him. Second, I need to stop everyone from collecting 3,600 "Tao". If someone wants to achieve this goal, you must stop him at all costs. Third, I need a strong and trustworthy "echo" to be able to use me. "

"How can this be "a problem"..." My eyes flickered slightly, "Isn't this three problems?"

"It depends on how you solve it." Aries said, "But you don't need to worry too much. When we meet outside, even if you don't solve any problems, what we agreed on will remain unchanged. I will try my best to share information with you. "

I understand that "try to" in this sentence means "If you can't complete this problem, I can guarantee your safety, but that's all."

Fortunately, although Aries is indifferent, he polishes his words as much as possible to make people feel comfortable. Smart people and stupid people will hear different meanings from a sentence and make different choices.

According to him, if I can complete this problem and complete it beautifully, I will get more than "intelligence."

"I know." I nodded, "I will try my best."

Aries then told us a few more words and ended this conversation.

The sheep carried the body of the Shar Pei dog to the corner waiting for the harpoon, while Aries stood quietly outside waiting to be pierced.

I never expected that it would be five years later when I saw Aries again after parting, which was seven years ago.
