Chapter 1110 Mission Withdrawn

On the second day of 2016, the sky was clear and the breeze was blowing.

Gu Xingjian, dressed in casual clothes, stood on the top of Tianming Mountain with one hand in his pocket and a cup of hot tea.

He always has a harmless smile on his ordinary face, and his easy-going temperament will make people ignore how his current position is superior to all living beings.

His slender red phoenix eyes narrowed slightly against the wind on the top of the mountain, making him look particularly relaxed.

A man stood alone on the top of the mountain, talking to himself.

"Brother, we are almost successful, just one step away."

"When I am qualified to stand on the gambling table and see it with my own eyes, you will understand that your death is worth it."

"Haha, people are going to die after all. I heard that my parents have canceled your and my accounts. Now we only belong to Tianhai Hotel."

As Gu Xingjian spoke, subtle changes appeared in his facial features, especially the position of his left eye.

The originally indifferent eyes there suddenly began to become deep and dark, as if they had become a black hole, completely swallowing up the light.

Not only the light, but also Gu Xingjian's entire left eyeball began to disappear, and his entire face became distorted and abnormal.

After a moment, a figure slowly came out of his body and stood directly in front of him, blocking the city under the mountain.

As the figure left the body, Gu Xingjian's face returned to its normal state. He took a half step back with the straw in his mouth and shook his head slightly.

"The body made from that skull still doesn't fit perfectly with mine, even with my brother's corpse."

After taking a swig of hot tea, he walked slowly in front of the figure, stopped a fist away, and observed carefully.

The corpse in front of him looked exactly like Gu Xingjian, both in height and face, except that he was missing his left eye.

The body has been seen numerous times but has never been found.

He is Gu Xingjian's brother - Gu Xingzhi.

It was also Gu Xingzhi who, according to Clyde, was originally the manager of the Ninth Branch, but died mysteriously when he took office.

Gu Xingzhi, who had never seen anyone alive or dead, now stood in front of his younger brother. It was impossible to tell whether he was dead or alive.

But from Gu Xingjian's few words, we may be able to get some of the original truth and current answers.

Gu Xingzhi is dead, and the cause of his death... cannot be said.

And now this corpse is suspected to have been "created" by Gu Xingjian——

Taking "that skull" as the prototype and using many things to fill it in.

What is now known is that Gu Xingzhi’s right eye was Li Congrong’s prosthetic eye.

Judging from a series of fragment performances:

Gu Xingjian got "a skull" and used it as a prototype, his brother as flesh and blood, and a group of special sinful objects as fillings to create something.

He wants to integrate this thing with himself to achieve a certain purpose.

And whether this purpose is what he said is "to get on the gambling table and meet it" is unknown.

In particular, it is not clear whether Gu Xingjian's "gambling table" and Ji Li's "gambling table" are the same.

But judging from the results, Gu Xingjian was almost successful.

Because Gu Xingzhi standing in front of him only had one right eye missing.

And he had already chosen the position of his right eye - "that young woman from far away Kyoto, but now in the seventh branch."

…

Shanming City, Huangma Temple.

Luo Xian clasped his hands together devoutly, holding a wisp of incense in his palms, slowly circling the green smoke along his fingertips.

As she knelt on the futon and bent over to offer incense, her black hair fell away, covering her stunning face.

The Buddha statue bathed in golden light has a peaceful and compassionate expression. The tall Buddha's hands are lowered, as if stroking the top of the believer's hair and blessing him.

In the quiet temple, scriptures are sung, making people's souls feel peaceful and tranquil.

What is incompatible with his surroundings is Li Yi, who stands tall and straight with his hands behind his back.

Zhongshan is dressed in black and has a stern face. Even though his position is higher and lower, there is an illusion in his eyes that he is looking at the Buddha on an equal footing.

After glancing at the Buddha statue, he lowered his eyes and looked at Luo Xian, who was still saluting, and said calmly:

"After chanting sutras, chanting Buddha's name, and meditating, you still want to kill and take lives. What's the point of this?"

Luo Xian recited something respectfully, then offered the incense, slowly stood up from the futon, turned back and pulled back his hair with a smile.

"After you are tired of running for your life and drifting away from life and death, don't you always come to me to have a sweet dream? It doesn't make any sense."

Since his fifth store manager assignment, Li Yi's mentality has undergone tremendous changes.

He began to no longer be domineering, but began to gradually contact people, so the first person was naturally Luo Xian.

In the middle of the mission, Li Yi gave up the competition and chose to immerse himself in his dream.

From then on, Li Yi would come to Luo Xian every once in a while and ask him to give him a sweet dream.

No one said it clearly, but everyone knew it.

Li Yi is becoming negative, even desperate, which is why he places his hope in illusory "dreams".

…

In the comfortable fasting room, Li Yi lay on the kang unpreparedly with his clothes closed, his eyes closed and his breath even.

Luo Xian was sitting at the table, twirling the tea cup with his slender fingers. The dense fragrance of tea slowly spread, filling the room with a refreshing fragrance.

"Since you are willing to dream, why don't you just take away my nightmare crime?"

Perhaps because of the contact during this period, Luo Xian is no longer unfamiliar and reserved with Li Yi, and speaks more casually.

But Li Yi did not answer, he was slowly immersed in his dream.

After Luo Xian finished speaking, she looked up at him and then gradually closed her eyes.

The nightmare sin is hers. She is the master in Li Yi's dream. In other words, she is also experiencing the dream that Li Yi is having.

...

A dream of greed for pleasure.

If Luo Xian had not come in many times, she would be surprised why Li Yi's beautiful dream would be like this.

In the dream, it was blank.

This is a grassland, empty and vast, endless, and connected to the horizon.

Li Yi stood in the middle of the grassland, the sky was high and the sea was far away, and there was nothing except the grass.

The sky was big and the earth was vast, and he was like a lonely black dot, inconspicuous and unimportant.

The weeds drifted with the wind, and the slightly swaying leaves were like waves, drowning Li Yi.

Luo Xian stood behind him and watched quietly. Her appearance did not affect the dream, so this dream was born from Li Yi's state of mind.

The previous dreams were all like this, but the scenes would change slightly, such as the sea, mountains...

Li Yi seemed to like being alone in the empty world. The atmosphere was very quiet and comfortable, giving people a sense of relaxation.

But Luo Xian felt that this kind of environment would make her feel suffocated and insignificant.

So after taking a look, she left as she wished and left Li Yi's dream.

However, what she didn't know was that when she just left, the dream had a terrible change.

Li Yi, who was immersed in tranquility, suddenly opened his eyes and looked up at the sky. The originally clear sky suddenly turned gray.

The monotonous gray represented extinction, as if it had become an endless wall.

And on that wall, there was a thin shadow trembling and screaming in pain.

Li Yi looked at this scene, and his straight spine actually showed a rare bend, and his raised head drooped unnaturally.

The beautiful dream turned into a nightmare.

As the nightmare sin progressed, the things Li Yi desired most in his heart were being destroyed. The gray wall and the thin figure foreshadowed his fate.

This gray wall was the cage he could not escape from in his lifetime.

Li Yi slowly clenched his fists, and the trembling of his pupils represented his struggle. He gritted his teeth and wanted to straighten his spine again to face the wall again.

Just like he just looked at the Buddha statue with equality.

…

Luo Xian's consciousness had just returned to the room. Before she picked up the cup of tea, the mobile phone in her pocket suddenly trembled.

Her face became solemn. The letter at this time was most likely a task notification.

"Recipient: Tianhai Hotel, Manager of the Sixth Branch, Luo Xian.

Please go to the unfinished building at No. 764 Guiyuan Road at 8 am on January 3, 2016, and survive in the building until 24:00 on January 3, 2016.

…"

But before she finished reading the task content, she suddenly frowned.

As the owner of the nightmare crime, she was multitasking. The changes in Li Yi's dream appeared in her mind. At the same time, she also saw the wall and the thin figure.

And this wall, she seemed to have seen it before...

"This is... This is!"

But she didn't have much time to multitask. The second change happened again.

The task email that she was reading halfway on her phone suddenly disappeared.

It was withdrawn!

After the text disappeared for half a minute, a new text reappeared, and the task content had been completely replaced.

"Recipient, Luo Xian, the manager of the sixth branch of Tianhai Hotel.

The sixth manager task will be opened in four hours, and the task details will be announced after entering the task.

Please return to the sixth branch at 15:00 on January 2, 2016, and wait for the transmission.

Please be prepared.

Sender: Tianhai."

Luo Xian closed the email, and a storm of waves rose in her heart. She was not surprised by the arrival of the manager task, but by this "sudden" timing.

The sixth store manager mission suddenly started, the timing was so strange.

It was like... Tianhai didn't want Luo Xian to see Li Yi's dream?
