Day of Imprisonment
#80 - cube
Luo Xi had his own plans. For the next period, he needed to be alone and naturally couldn't have anyone following him.
Moreover, Qian Lejin's actual combat ability was indeed a bit lacking, just like what Aunt Qin said, his physique and strength were not enough. However, this could be improved with cards.
After telling the driver his destination, Luo Xi started 'puppet mode' in the back seat.
Immobile, eyes vacant.
He was thinking.
From his perspective looking at the rearview mirror, the back seat was now crowded with people.
"That fatty is so annoying, I really want to pull out his tongue and then sew up his stinky mouth!"
"Also, you guys are too noisy, get lost, get lost, all of you get out of here!"
A bare-chested 'Luo Xi' covered in tattoos crawled out from somewhere, pushing away the other figures with extreme barbarity and rudeness, driving them all back out of the mirror's view. Only then did he sit down beside him like a warlord, looking at the normal Luo Xi with ill intentions.
The latter acted as if he didn't see the other person at all, still pondering with his head down.
The tattooed 'Luo Xi' didn't bother him, just sitting there.
If you looked closely, you could see many scars on the tattooed Luo Xi's bare upper body, like hideous centipedes. Some even had rope marks, as if he had just been untied, like a prisoner released from some terrifying, damp, and sunless place.
"You are confused," the tattooed 'Luo Xi' said, "When you are confused, it always makes those guys think they have a chance. But in reality, what are they? Not as good as you, and certainly not as good as me. But you must have become weaker, my being able to run out is the best proof. Oh right, regarding the fact that I was actually able to escape, you must not have expected that, right?"
His words carried an undisguised sense of pride and provocation.
Luo Xi still ignored him.
His expression now even had a hint of grayness, and occasionally, his brow would furrow, indeed looking like he was stuck on some problem.
"I hate you like this the most, what are you pretending for? Force can solve all problems. But honestly, you really messed me up badly. You let the others go, but you locked us up in the deepest place. I remember telling you that I would definitely get this debt back from you. I think now is the time."
"Sigh ~" Luo Xi sighed at this moment. His originally unfocused eyes refocused, and he turned his head to look at the chattering tattooed 'Luo Xi': "Is there a possibility that I deliberately let you out?"
"..." The tattooed 'Luo Xi' was stunned.
He obviously hadn't thought of this possibility.
Soon, he reacted, then widened his eyes, his mouth twitching a couple of times, and unconsciously moved towards the side, increasing the distance from Luo Xi.
"What do you mean? Are you saying... but that doesn't make sense. Why? Why did you let me out?"
"Because you were locked in the lowest level. To be honest, my impression of you is very vague, but the tattoos and personality on your body make me understand your value. Being locked up doesn't mean being punished. On the contrary, it might be some kind of protection. Moreover, you should be one of the first personalities to appear after I got sick, so you might know something. " Luo Xi smiled, "And the most important thing is, I saw the mark on your body. That should be left by me. Those marks indicate that you belong to the type that doesn't lie. This is a very rare quality, rarely seen, whether in reality or illusion, it's a rare species."
"No, don't ask me, I don't want to answer any of your questions. Let me go back, you insidious bad guy, I suspect you want to harm me." The tattooed 'Luo Xi' was very annoyed at this time. He wanted to run, but he found that this carriage was like a cage. He remembered that he seemed to have climbed out of an incomparably deep well, towards the light, but when he wanted to go back, he found that there was no wellhead around him at all.
Now he realized that this was actually a trap.
"Did I take medicine before?" Luo Xi asked.
"Medicine? What medicine?" The tattooed Luo Xi was stunned. He said he didn't want to answer questions, but when he was really asked, he still thought and answered the first time.
"Understood, second question, do you know how long you've been locked up?"
"How the hell would I know? But if you want me to say it based on feeling, then I can say that I feel like I've been locked up for ten thousand years, and every second of those past ten thousand years, I've been cursing you!"
"Have you seen Mom?" Luo Xi didn't seem to care what the other party answered. It seemed that even the other party's unreliable answer could be interpreted to extract the information he needed.
"Mom? We still have a Mom?" The tattooed 'Luo Xi' widened his eyes this time. His expression was like hearing a big joke, or thinking that the other party was joking with him.
"When was the last time you saw me?"
"It's been a long time, I don't know how long it's been. Why don't you just not lock me up, let's discuss..."
"You can go back!" Luo Xi waved his hand. The tattooed 'Luo Xi' hadn't finished speaking when he was dragged into the seat by a force, and soon disappeared, as if sinking into water.
The world in the mirror seemed to return to normal all of a sudden.
"Young man, what are you mumbling about?" The driver asked at this time.
"Sorry, I'm on the phone!" Luo Xi pointed to his ear.
Soon, the carriage fell silent again.
Luo Xi's fingers moved, and a card appeared in his hand.
It was card number 077 【Horadric Cube】.
Before, An Zhiyan said she wanted to see this card, and Luo Xi showed it without any hesitation, naturally there was a reason, because the description of this card was very peculiar.
On the card, in addition to the extremely exquisite illustration, there were only a few question marks in the place where the text introduction should have been.
So far, among all the spider cards Luo Xi had seen, this was the first time he had encountered this situation.
Cards that can be materialized will become the specific things described after switching forms.
At this moment, the card in Luo Xi's hand turned into a cube ten centimeters on each side.
Exactly the same as the appearance on the card illustration.
Originally, Luo Xi thought that this cube would have some weight, after all, it looked like it should be some kind of metal, like copper, but in fact, the feeling of holding it in his hand was surprisingly light.
The texture was a kind of metal that had never been seen before.
The six faces of the cube all had different patterns, with exquisite lines. Luo Xi first turned it over and over in his hand, and found that the entire cube was a whole, without any splicing gaps, and could not be opened. Initially, it looked like a sealed metal block, possibly hollow. Luo Xi shook the thing, but couldn't hear any sound, so it might also be solid.
As for the patterns, the six faces were all different.
Three of the faces were engraved with the sun, moon, and stars respectively. Some of the pictures were very simple and could be seen at a glance, such as a round sun, with a ring and flame patterns on the outside, very recognizable; the crescent moon was the same. In addition, there were some strange patterns and lines on it that needed to be interpreted.
The other three faces were respectively an extremely complex pattern like a maze; an hourglass; an eye.
If only a simple interpretation is made, it can be said that the cube is filled with three concepts everywhere.
Past, present, and future, as well as knowledge.
This interpretation naturally requires a lot of basis, such as some commonly known concepts; religion; mathematics; geography and history; occultism and even cryptography.
Luo Xi found that he actually knew so much strange knowledge. This kind of knowledge was by no means superficial, but belonged to the kind that had been truly studied.
That is, a deep understanding.
That kind of expert level.
But this in itself was an incredible thing. According to his current age, it was impossible to have this level of knowledge reserve.
The strange things were not limited to knowledge, but also the ways to obtain knowledge, such as the books in Tun Tun Bookstore. Luo Xi found that he had read many of them.
He remembered the contents inside. For some of the books, he could even accurately say some classic texts and quotations on a certain page.
But the strange thing was that Luo Xi didn't remember the process of reading these books at all.
He knew the contents of these books, but he had no memory of reading them.
If some things are viewed separately, it is easy to fall into a predicament, because the answer cannot be found; but if several similar problems are linked together, it will be found that perhaps the truth is still hidden in a place that cannot be seen at present, but the direction of these problems is the same.
"The strangest thing about myself is myself... So, who am I after all?"
Luo Xi said to himself at this time.
He couldn't answer this question now, and he couldn't find the answer.
It seemed that the former 'Luo Xi' had planned a series of things, but obviously, the other party had amnesia.
All the truth seemed to be buried in the past time with the disappearance of memory.
Luo Xi knew very little about the past, but judging from the clues obtained so far, a few things can be basically determined. One is that 'he' arranged for Xu Lin to pretend to play a non-existent mother to keep an eye on himself, and even ordered the other party to give himself some special pills to suppress the 'illness'.
But Luo Xi was very clear that his illness was not a bad thing from a certain point of view.
On the contrary, under the influence of this 'illness', he possessed knowledge and strong analytical skills, as well as memory. If he continued to take medicine, he might not even be able to escape Old Wang's scene.
So either Xu Lin was lying, or the former self had a deeper plan.
Luo Xi quickly skipped over some people and things in his mind.
At this time, the car stopped, and the driver said: "Here we are, 29 yuan 8, scan the code."
