Chapter 76 Travel Advertising
"Unfortunately, Mengling, this is impossible." Xiaozhi didn't mean to mock her, it was just a mechanical artificial intelligence, not very good at talking around the corner, "You are just an ordinary person."

Li Mengling's expression dimmed, and just as she was about to accept this fact, Xiaozhi in the headset added, "But ordinary people also have ways for ordinary people to approach the truth, you can..."

A gust of autumn wind blew, and fallen leaves rolled up under the steps outside the hospital, as if dancing with her skirt.Li Mengling listened to the voice in the earphones, and saw the uncle in the guard room holding a broom and looking at her from a distance.

She also looked at the old man, as if she could see herself in the other's eyes, like a beautiful world-famous painting.Until the uncle continued to bend down and sweep the fallen leaves in the yard, Xiaozhi in the earphone also finished speaking.Li Mengling jumped down the steps like a rabbit, smiling happily, as if all the tragic experiences before had never existed.

What Xiaozhi said just now was not funny at all, and it even made her feel even more disappointed.But at the moment when the autumn leaves were blown up and down by the wind, Li Mengling was surprised to find that she could suddenly smile so happily—even when she was extremely sad in her heart.

An invisible chain revolving like DNA extends from the depths of her soul to the end of the universe in this world, just like a spider thread floating in the sea of ​​stars, passing through the rainbow gate that emits colorful lights in the dark , ignoring the labyrinth-like passages that turn left and right, sticking straight to the wall that it cannot continue to penetrate.

On the other side of the wall, Fang Xiaoling had just survived the thrilling catastrophe, and the hole in the sky above her head gradually shrank, like a tightly tightened bag, and pairs of green agate-like eyes flew away again before the portal was completely closed. went back.

Fang Xiaoling looked at the people around who survived by luck, but she didn't show the same happy expression as her, just like people who are running when it rains to welcome the sunshine, people just slow down as usual, and they will never do it once. After the rain, the sky began to cheer excitedly.

I don't know how long it took before Fang Xiaoling suddenly felt the struggle in her left hand, and gradually heard Mengying's complaining voice, "Big sister, you hurt me!"

"Ah? I'm sorry." Fang Xiaoling let go of her hand, and saw that the other party stretched his arms behind his back, bent down to pose like an airplane, and ran in circles around her.

"Yeah! We survived, that's great!" Mengying was almost acting out Fang Xiaoling's heartfelt voice.

"Yeah, that's great." Fang Xiaoling looked at the people walking around blankly, and murmured, "But it seems that only the two of us think so?"

"Hmm..." Mengying stood still, pondered for a while, and said, "Maybe they are too busy? So they don't have time to be happy."

"Busy?" Fang Xiaoling looked at those people's slow-moving footsteps, "What are they busy with?"

Mengying smiled and showed her two white canine teeth, she turned and ran in one direction, "Follow me!"

Fang Xiaoling followed her for a long time, and finally came to countless green machines that looked like traditional mailboxes. Panting, Mengying took out a coin from the pocket of the dinosaur's pajamas, and stuffed the coin into Fang Xiaoling's hand.

"This is?" Fang Xiaoling looked at the coin in her hand suspiciously. The number 8 was written on both sides, but she immediately realized that it was a symbol representing infinity.

"Put it in and you'll know." Mengying pointed to the coin hole on the machine and said, "Put the infinite coin in."

Fang Xiaoling looked at the endless machine in front of her. Many people stood motionless in front of the machine, and some seemed to be hesitating with coins in their hands.In sight, there was only a tall man bending over to toss a coin.

Fang Xiaoling didn't understand why, but she still followed his example and put the coins into the machine.

"Look!" Mengying pointed to the air above the machine, and a translucent screen appeared in a short while, and an excited voice came out from the machine's audio system, "World D98415! The initial birth place is full of streams and waterfalls, and the vegetation is dense. The scenery is intoxicatingly beautiful! The climate of the world as a whole is mild, with abundant rainfall and sunshine, and four distinct seasons..."

The beautiful scenery is shown on the screen, describing the beauty of that world like an advertisement.

"What is this?" Fang Xiaoling tilted her head, "A travel advertisement?"

"I don't know what you saw." Mengying put her hands behind her back, lowered her head and kicked the ground with her feet, as if waiting for her, "Only the person who puts the coin in can see the world described on the screen. "

Fang Xiaoling looked at the tall man not far away. He was standing motionless at this moment, as if he was intoxicated in the world described in the video.

Fang Xiaoling had long lost interest in the forest scene that was playing on the screen, "Did those people who were walking on the road before come here to watch the advertisements?"

"Partly, and partly, to get the infinite coins I just gave you." After finishing speaking, Mengying stretched out her hand and pointed in the direction they had just come, "At the other end of the world, there is a place where infinite coins can be collected. , but each person can only carry one on his body."

While Mengying was talking, the screen disappeared, and the sound of the machine also stopped all sound. Fang Xiaoling was stunned for a long time, and said, "And then?"

"Then come over and throw coins." Mengying seemed to be saying common sense that everyone knew.

Fang Xiaoling looked at the tall man, who had obviously finished watching the video, and was leaving the machine dejectedly, moving towards the other end.

"This..." Fang Xiaoling looked at the man's receding figure with a frown, and muttered, "I don't understand... I mean, what's the point of doing this?"

"Hope." Mengying touched the infinity symbol engraved on the green machine and said, "The name of this machine is [Hope]. If you put coins into [Hope], there will be a chance that an exclusive pass will appear. The person with the ticket can leave the prison the next time the portal opens."

Before Fang Xiaoling could ask, Mengying continued to explain as if she knew it: "This is the prison where the soul is imprisoned. The soul in this world is called prisoner spirit by the outside world. Your body is imitated according to the image of the real soul. You can't destroy the shackles, they are embedded in your soul, it will be very painful to destroy, and the soul will also be destroyed."

"Prison?? Have I been arrested?" Fang Xiaoling looked at her hands, "Are you kidding... What crime did I commit? And who condemned me?"
