Although they didn't know how long they had been walking, Kumiki Mengze and the two of them still had to go on.
"I'm about to start walking up, but I feel like the other person doesn't want me to see him."
Going up again is a dark and long journey, but it feels different from the feeling of walking down. At this time, the dead tree's body feels an inexplicable lightness.
Following the upward path, Kumu and Mengze soon saw a faint light, and they both agreed that it was the exit.
"I don't know why the other party did this."
As the two of them got closer to the luminous point, the sounds entering their ears gradually became clearer.
Only then did Kumu realize that the source of the sound was actually the wind.
After Kumu Mengze left the passage, he found that they had arrived at a place full of trees. This place was not a room at all but suddenly outside.
This strange change shocked both Kumu and Mengze. How could they suddenly come outside after entering from a normal street? Moreover, even the passage they took led to the outside.
An old man who seemed to be still alive was sitting at a table in the forest. The old man seemed to have determined that the dead wood would come here.
Judging from the appearance, the old man is indeed the same as Mengze described. He looks very weak.
Faced with this situation, Deadwood moved forward cautiously and slowly, sensing the surrounding situation.
"What's the matter with number 108?"
"Number 108?"
Kumu was a little confused about the code name the old man called him.
"You are the 108th person to see me today. I don't remember people's names, only numbers. The girl next to you was the 108th person. After seeing you, I will stop seeing people. ."
Deadwood was the last person the old man decided to meet.
"Do you treat people differently every time?"
He was puzzled by the old man's way of meeting people this time.
"After all, you're not going to ask me right away, so I'll make it harder for you to see me."
The old man told Kumu what he was thinking at the beginning, so he deliberately made things difficult for Kumu, even though he only walked an extra mile.
But Kumu's naturally suspicious character caused doubts about the old man's words. The old man said that Kumu was the 108th person he saw today. If there were so many people every time the old man had an opinion, how could no one know about his existence.
"You seem to have other questions. If you ask, I will answer your question."
Mengze tugged on Kumu's arm and asked him to ask what he wanted to know most first, and not to ask about irrelevant doubts.
There seemed to be a limit to the number of questions he could ask. Kumu could only ask what he wanted to know.
Just when Kumu was about to ask, the old man made several requests to Kumu.
"Well, let's talk about it first. I can't give exact answers to questions about people's feelings. I don't know about problems that may happen in the future. I don't know about how people succeed. Okay, these are the requirements. go ahead."
Deadwood can also understand these points added by the old man, but Deadwood himself asked about the exact thing, so there is no need to worry about this.
"I would like to ask why the perfect soul becomes thinner?"
Dead wood goes straight to the point and asks clear questions that he wants.
The old man didn't waste much time and answered questions directly when he saw Dead Tree.
"There is only one way for a completed soul to become thin, and that is to split the soul. If an average person's soul is like this, then the soul will become thin after being divided into two."
"So what's the impact of having a thin soul?"
"The soul will become weaker and dissipate more easily. The advantage is that if the soul dies, it will not become a walking zombie. As long as you get the soul that was separated before, you can change back to its original appearance."
"ah!"
Looking at the old man's explanation, Kumu understood why the people behind Qiu Zhenyuan could rest assured that Qiu Zhenyuan would be caught, and even if Qiu Zhenyuan died, he could be resurrected.
"I didn't expect that the person behind Qiu Zhenyuan could be so terrifying and could even resurrect people."
"There is one more question." The old man interrupted Dead Wood's train of thought and asked him to continue asking.
The opportunity must never come again. Kumu had a question that he had been thinking about for more than ten years and was ready to ask the old man.
"Old man, what's going on with the abilities in my body?"
"I'm sorry I need to keep a secret, so I can't talk about this?"
"secret?"
I don’t know whether he really didn’t know or didn’t want to tell Kumu, but the old man refused Kumu’s question for a secret reason.
However, the old man did not say a word completely.
"Your ability is because of yourself. I can only tell you that your ability is good for you and you are good for it. Don't hate it because of various experiences."
The old man gave Kumu a message without any cause and effect, which made people confused. What is good for Kumu is also good for Kumu. The old man's words made Kumu stunned for a moment.
If it weren't for his ability, Deadwood wouldn't have been lonely and afraid of his soul for more than ten years. Even the instruments that he clearly has the ability to detect abilities can't show anything. It's not that Deadwood can't accept his own abilities. If Deadwood could have understood clearly from the beginning Knowing his own abilities, Kumu can accept it instead of not showing up when he needs it and showing up forcefully when he doesn't want to pay attention. If Kumu's own abilities are normal, then he is not just what he is now. To say that Kumu's current appearance is entirely caused by his ability. It's not an exaggeration.
What puzzles Zhu Mu is the last paragraph. He is also very good at abilities. Zhu Mu knows that his abilities are very mysterious. He can count the number of times he can use them with two hands. When it comes to how good he is at abilities, Zhu Mu doesn't know. Believe me, there is no standard for judging this at all.
"It's really meaningless."
If there is no help for the old man, Ku Mu feels that he has wasted an opportunity.
"The chance to ask three questions is gone."
"One more time, as long as you don't tell anything about what happened here after you leave here, you can ask someone. Don't worry, as long as you agree to my request, you will only remember the answer to your question when you leave here, and you won't remember anything else. , unless you can come here again."
"Then if I don't ask, can I tell others?"
"You can only tell one person."
The last words the old man said were equivalent to telling Kumu why he didn't know the answer here. Without exception, those people paid the price of not telling it in exchange for the fourth opportunity to ask.
Kumu looked back at Mengze who was standing in the distance, and had an answer to Mengze's choice in his heart.
The old man saw Kumu's thoughts, "Of course she will remember it. After all, she chose to tell others."
"There has always been only one question in my mind. It's really difficult to think of questions that I don't know immediately now. These are the only things I want to ask. If I have a chance, I'll ask them next time."
Deadwood was firm in his answer and stopped asking.
After listening to Kumu's words, the old man was very happy, "As expected, No. 108 brought by No. 108 is really the same. I hope you will remember my words and don't have any disgusting thoughts about your own abilities."
The old man warned Kumu one last time to remember his words, and then sent the two of them away.
.....................
"Why not ask the fourth question?"
The lovely Mengze expressed doubts about Kumu's behavior. He didn't know what questions to ask and he didn't have many questions, so he chose to tell others. But Kumu looked like he was full of doubts. How could he not ask questions?
"I don't have any problems, and it's not good to ask others when I can tell them."
"I already know the answer I want. I'll just give it up and maybe I'll see him again."
"Ku Mu is really thinking about the long term. I don't think I can meet him forever." Mengze cares more about the immediate things. After all, survival is a big problem for her now.
Kumu and Mengze, who walked out from another exit, were now in a shopping mall in the city center. Mengze Kumu knew that he appeared suddenly, but no one else noticed at all.
"There was nothing I needed help with and I just left."
Seeing that Mengze had returned to the ground, he was not ready to stay with Kumu any longer, and was about to leave to see his mother.
"Mengze, do you mind if I go to the hospital with you?"
Kumu knew that Mengze had helped him a lot, and was going to find out if Mengze needed help. The first step was to go to the hospital with Mengze to visit Mengze's mother.
"Are you really coming?"
Mengze squeezed his little hands nervously.
