Zhong Kui's Diary
Looking around, the vast square still stretched endlessly in my view, with the ground beneath my feet resembling white jade. Without any reference points, I had no idea how far I had walked; if I had to estimate, it was about eight hundred to a thousand meters.
"But there’s nothing here!" I exclaimed in surprise.
"Try standing where I am," A Li said, taking a step forward to make room.
I moved to A Li's position, and the scenery before me changed dramatically.
At that moment, I found myself standing on the deck of a ship—an enormous wooden vessel. The deck beneath my feet was at least three hundred meters wide, and when I turned to look back, I couldn't even see the ship's stern... The structures on the deck reached up into the clouds, each layer adorned with countless portholes and cabin doors, yet every level was completely empty. Surrounded by swirling white clouds, it was impossible to tell how many layers there were.
Turning back to face the front, I looked at the ship's bow and saw the tumultuous sea. Despite the crashing waves, this wooden ship remained remarkably stable; I could hardly feel any rocking. Based on my observation of the distance to the sea surface, I was stunned to realize that this wooden ship was at least two hundred meters tall. The height of just the deck alone did not account for the buildings on board.
What the hell? When did wood become capable of constructing an aircraft carrier? And even if it were an aircraft carrier, it wouldn't be this large, right?
Soon enough, I noticed something else that astonished me: there were no seams in the wood on this deck. It was as if the entire ship had been carved from a single piece of wood.
"A Li! A Li..." I was about to ask A Li where we were when I realized she wasn't beside me at all. The entire deck was empty; there was no one else around except for me.
"A Li!" I called out loudly, feeling a surge of panic.
There was no response.
Right, it seemed I hadn't seen her when I came out earlier. Could she still be outside in the square?
Thinking this, I took a step back.
Since stepping forward had brought me onto the deck, stepping back should return me to the hall we were in earlier. Anyone with a normal level of intelligence could come to such a conclusion.
Sure enough, after taking a step back, the scenery in front of me changed again. I was no longer standing on the deck... but damn it, I hadn't returned to the square either; instead, I had arrived at an even more fantastical place.
In the distance, there were three islands floating in the air, each with a towering mountain. Below them, lush vines grew along the edges of the islands, with numerous streams cascading down, forming countless large waterfalls. This scene was quite similar to what I had seen in the Land of Eternal Sleep, extraordinarily surreal.
Retracting my gaze, I realized that I was also on an island beneath my feet. I was standing on a large rock that jutted out from the top of a cliff, with sheer abysses extending forward, left, and right.
Damn! Where is this again?
Grinding my teeth, I took another step forward.
The scene changed once more. I found myself inside a palace. Looking out through the palace windows, it was clear that this palace was situated amidst a snow-capped mountain.
I stepped back!
I arrived at a stadium, a large venue that could accommodate tens of thousands of people. In the center was a vibrant green soccer field, its turf neatly marked into squares resembling a chessboard due to the different shades of green. Surrounding the field was a reddish-brown track, and beyond that were the stands.
Grinding my teeth again, I moved forward!
Before me appeared a cemetery filled with towering tombstones. I had never seen so many tall tombstones at once; almost every one stood over five meters high, made of granite and arched at the top. Surprisingly, each tombstone had a turtle supporting it underneath. Well, this wasn't just any turtle; it was a Bixi.
I stepped back again!
In front of me appeared an internet café. All the computers were powered on, displaying various scenes: interfaces from Meitu Xiuxiu, RD's interface, "Luo A Luo" (League of Legends), and even Japanese adult film interfaces... However, unlike all the previous scenes, this internet café was completely empty, dimly lit with faint screens that felt particularly eerie.
I moved forward again!
Oh? This time there was no change in scenery. I remained in this empty internet café.
Is this the end? I tentatively took a step back, but the scene still didn't change. Next, no matter how I moved forward, backward, left, and right, the scene no longer changed. Feeling a little anxious, I quickly walked around the Internet cafe, only to realize that this Internet cafe had no door. After cursing, I fired Nine Divine Thunder at the wall. To my dismay, this Nine Divine Thunder had no effect. It's like a mud cow entering the sea. Yeah, what the hell is going on? Am I just in this Internet cafe and will never go back? Calm, calm, there was a voice in my heart reminding me, I lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and suddenly shouted: "Boss, I want to get on the computer!" There was no response, but the computer in front of me suddenly There was a flash, and then, all the computer screens suddenly changed from their respective screens to a QQ login screen. Does this require me to log in to QQ? After hesitating for a while, he couldn't help but walked forward, found a seat and sat down. I entered my QQ Number, and as soon as I clicked on it, it showed that there was a message coming through. I clicked on it and applied for friend information. There were two pieces of information in total. The first one was found through people nearby, and the additional information was 'Mr. , Health Treatment buy one get one free, only 488 yuan! ' I was surprised, in this Hall of Life and Death, there is actually a Health Treatment? I looked at the time again and saw that the news was from a long time ago. Then I remembered that it seemed that I hadn't logged in to QQ for a long time. I smiled bitterly, clicked "Ignore", and then looked at the second message. There were only two words 'A Li' on this message. I quickly clicked OK and soon received a message. You and A Li have already Become friends. "A Li, what's going on!" I typed a sentence quickly. There was also a response there, because I saw a few words displayed at the top of the chat panel - the other party was typing. This typing state lasted for about five or six minutes. I was muttering to myself, could A Li be writing a tutorial to tell me how to get out of these maze-like ghostly places?
When A Li sent half of the message, I was stunned to see it only contained two short words: "Ghost Brother." You took five or six minutes just to type two words? And there wasn't even any punctuation.
I quickly replied, "Can we chat?"
After more than five minutes of "the other party is typing," A Li finally responded, "No."
"Then why are you so slow? Are you trying to drive me crazy?"
"The situation is very special right now. Communicating like this is difficult for me. Don't ask anything; I'll tell you how to leave the Illusion."
Just that one sentence took almost half an hour.
Communicating with you is what’s really difficult. I replied with one word: "Okay!"
Then I minimized the chat window and prepared to play a game. At A Li's speed, it would probably take all night to get through a tutorial.
Like all internet cafes, besides the Recycle Bin and My Computer icons on the desktop, there were two shortcuts labeled "Online Game" and "Single Player Game." I was too lazy to play any Online Game, so I randomly picked a game called "Blood Battle on the Shanghai Beach" from Single Player Game.
Every time I played for a while, I had to switch back to the chat window, which always showed "the other party is typing." I could only keep switching back to the game. After finishing Blood Battle on the Shanghai Beach, I played "Three Kingdoms: Heroes," "Single Player Mahjong," "Monkey Jumping Stump," and "Spider Solitaire," among other puzzle games. After smoking a pack of cigarettes and eating two bowls of instant noodles, I even took a nap. Finally, A Li's message came through.
The message informed me that this Illusion has a total of six layers, and everyone who enters experiences different illusions based on their subconscious. The order of each layer's illusions constantly changes. Those who do not understand the intricacies will never be able to escape the Illusion.
Breaking the Illusion is quite simple; each layer has a magic circle. If you find its core and destroy it, that layer will disappear. When all six layers vanish, you will naturally break free.
After reading this, I couldn't help but feel frustrated and replied, "Then why did you bring me into the Illusion?"
After a long pause, A Li replied with two words: "Accident!"
"Damn it! How can I find the core and destroy it?" I was extremely frustrated.
This time, it only took three minutes before two words came from that side: "88!"
After that, A Li's avatar turned gray.
I hate it when conversations are cut off!
I stood up and looked around.
The internet café covered an area of about three hundred square meters. Inside, it was very tidy, with ten computers in a row, five on each side, totaling around thirteen or fourteen rows. All the computer screens were flashing various images, as if there were invisible people sitting in front of each computer, operating the various characters on the screens. I could even see words rapidly appearing in one of the RPG screens.
Looking back, there was a Bar Counter. On the Bar Counter, there were various instant noodles and snacks, along with a standing Refrigerator filled with different drinks. Next to the Refrigerator was a door with a sign above it that read "Machine Room."
Right, the Machine Room is the most important part of the entire internet café; perhaps this focal point is inside the Machine Room.
Yes, it must be so.
I stretched my limbs and gathered Lightning Magic, simulating it into a Sphinx monster that walked beside me like a human. After thinking for a moment, I simulated another Sphinx to stand on my other side before confidently walking toward the Bar Counter.
