12, blooming carnations
At this time, the tide of rats has swarmed to the second floor, and the entire ancient house has become crumbling. I am afraid that they will rush into the yard before long, and everyone will have to finish playing by then.
However, Su Mo looked at the sky again and said calmly: "No hurry, the time has not come yet."
As for when, Su Mo didn't say.
"The chaos in the timeline can only mean that there is something wrong with this time and space, but this is a supernatural script, so it makes sense that the time is a bit chaotic, right?" Xiao Ya said uncertainly.
However, Su Mo shook his head and said in denial: "At first I thought it was a supernatural script, but now that I think about it, I'm afraid we are all wrong."
"Huh? What do you mean?" Mark was also confused.
Recalling the most eye-catching giant "The Scream" in the main hall, Su Mo said firmly: "I was suspicious when the three of you were resurrected. Now I can almost conclude that what we encountered was definitely not a supernatural event, but Tan Le's prank."
'!"
Another prank?
Everyone who was already dizzy was even more confused now.
Su Mo fixed his gaze on the sleeping Tan Le, and the corners of his mouth turned up in an inexplicable arc, "Don't forget, Tan Le also suffers from mental illness, and he is also delusional!"
The word 'same' was said by Su Mo subconsciously. The four dazed people obviously did not notice the ambiguity - they were stunned by Su Mo's bold idea!
"So, what we are entering is not a supernatural script, but Tan Le's fantasy world!"
Everything here is fictitious, it is all an illusory space that Tan Le constructed in his mind to escape reality!
One of the evidences is the indifferent mother who remained indifferent after her son was kidnapped;
Tan Qing loves her son deeply, and Tan Le also loves his mother deeply, which can be seen from Tan Le's diary. However, this heavy love has already become the biggest pain in Tan Le's heart after his mother broke her leg.
The weak son watched his mother's legs being broken by his stepfather, but he was helpless. Who could bear such a feeling of powerlessness?
As much as Tan Le loves his mother, he feels guilty, and it will not weaken with the passage of time. This is the pain of Tan Le's life, and will also become a shadow that will accompany him throughout his life.
Therefore, in his fictional world, Tan Le would rather his mother be more indifferent and love him less, so that his guilt would be lower.
Evidence 2: The cruel and perverted Tan Le in his sister's diary was made up by him because he could not accept his own cowardice and incompetence. In his fantasy world, he became the most evil and perverted person, and the real
The evil sister and stepfather both became the kindest and most innocent victims.
Tan Le, only by escaping reality can he survive...
It's a pity that his kindness, cowardice and incompetence are still indelible in some details. The resurrection of the four people in Su Mo is enough to prove this - this is his kindness.
As for cowardice and incompetence, when he encountered a real pervert and a real murderer, the fictional boy collapsed - this was Chu Han's credit.
"The protagonist in "The Scream" is himself, fearful, unwilling, roaring, desperate... How is the twisted world similar to this one?"
Su Mo's eyes became hollow, and his face showed a rare expression of emotion, "However, a coward will always be a coward, no matter how unwilling he is, so what? It's just a fictional world to escape from, it's really ridiculous!"
The last sentence was incomprehensible, but the four people were so shocked that they still didn't notice it.
"Fantasy world?"
Chai Gang swallowed hard, his dull face full of shock, "So, so we are now...in Tan Le's brain?"
One sentence brings everyone back to reality.
"Are you disgusting?"
Mark glared at him with disdain and said in confusion: "Are we really in Tan Le's fantasy world? This, this is too, too..."
Xiao Ya said anxiously: "If this is really the case, how can we get out?"
This is a question that concerns everyone.
"The devil's cage has been opened, and the key is in Pandora's hand; most devout believers, please move forward in the dark night..." Su Mo said, "The devil refers to Tan Le himself, or Tan Le's fictional self.
Pandora is not a sister but a mother."
When her mother took Tan Le to marry He Wanzhou, she opened the magic box and brought disaster to her and Tan Le. The disaster was clearly recorded in Tan Le's diary.
Athena's seed of hope is the key in Pandora's hand, which is the photo under the diary - what else is greater than maternal love?
What Tan Le wants to escape is also what he desires most;
"The darkness before dawn is both death and rebirth." Su Mo looked up at the sky, "The darkness before dawn is bleak. It represents despair. It also... also indicates that the morning glow is about to come!"
boom!!!
The huge ancient house finally collapsed!
Countless red-eyed mice surged toward the garden...
At the same time, the glow slowly rose outside the wall, shining on the blooming carnations, casting a warm color on everyone - just like the mother holding the boy in the photo.
"At first I thought it was 'locked' in my mother's room, but later I found out that I was wrong. Every corner of the entire ancient house was filled with regret and resentment, and my mother's room was no exception. And the only paradise was in the garden.
Blooming carnations!”
The flower language of carnation is love and respect; it represents mother, maternal love that does not seek repayment, the greatest love in the world.
The beautiful garden is the only paradise in the fictional world of resentment;
"And now!" Su Mo smiled confidently, "What we have to do is return to 'reality' and find the real Tan Le!"
Under the stunned gazes of the four people, Su Mo raised the photo high!
The morning glow, which symbolizes hope, sprinkles on the photo, giving it a warm color...
The morning glow ignites the photos, also ignites the blooming carnations, and even lights up the bleak world - the darkness before dawn, which is both death and rebirth.
The five people were bathed in the white flames. Their bodies were burning, but they didn't feel any heat at all. What they felt was endless relaxation.
The raging rat tide receded one after another, and a woman covered in blood staggered out - Lu Lanlan, she was not dead!
"Wait for me, wait for me! Don't leave me!"
Su Mo raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Haha, I forgot, the cowardly and kind-hearted Tan Le will not kill anyone."
While everyone was stunned, Su Mo snatched the ax from Chai Gang's hand!
"what are you doing?!"
Under the exclamation of everyone, the ax flew out with a roar, and struck the seriously injured and dying Lu Lanlan on the thigh with great precision. Lu Lanlan fell to the ground!
"ah!!"
"Su Mo, I hate you!!!"
With Lu Lanlan's final sound, the five people from Su Mo disappeared in the vast flames...
White light circulated, and the five people came to a strange place.
In a daze, Chai Gang said in surprise: "Come out? Did we escape from the ancient house?"
The ignorant Chai Gang still hasn't figured out what happened, but it doesn't hinder his joy - he survived and got through the third script safely!
"It's not over yet!"
The voice came from Dai Xingzhang, whose eyes were fixed on an adult man on a single bed not far away, his face extremely solemn.
Looking around, Su Mo found that this was a claustrophobic space similar to a prison.
There was only an iron door and an iron bed in the space. Sitting on the simple single bed was a young man wearing a hospital gown with a thin face and dull eyes.
The man seemed not surprised by the appearance of the five people. He didn't even look up, just holding a photo in a daze.
The photo was exactly the same as their 'key' for customs clearance, and everyone guessed the man's identity - Tan Le.
Tan Le suffers from severe delusion, moderate mania, and severe psychological distortion;
Tan Le, who killed his sister and stepfather and burned down his old house;
Tan Le was imprisoned;
"Hello."
After a brief silence, Su Mo asked: "What do we need to do?"
The man looked up. There was no madness or mania as he imagined, but only dullness and silence. "I want... I want to see my mother for the last time."
Meet Tan Qing?
Su Mo frowned.
Jailbreaking is not difficult for him, not to mention there are several old players around him, but...
"you sure?"
There was no trace of fluctuation in the bland rhetorical question, but Tan Le's dull face showed obvious struggle and madness.
"No... don't! I don't want to see her!"
"Hey hey..."
Chai Gang quickly grabbed Su Mo and whispered urgently: "This man is sick, don't irritate him! Isn't it just to see his mother? Let's help him. The key is to complete the task quickly and leave the script!"
This is Chai Gang's last script as a reserve, and no one is more urgent than him.
Everyone is afraid of mental illness, and everyone feels that it is dangerous to be close to mental illness. Even these players who are physically stronger than ordinary people are unavoidable.
However, Su Mo was not afraid, because...he was also mentally ill.
Pushing Chai Gang aside, Su Mo walked step by step towards Tan Le under the watchful eyes of the others, "What are you running away from? Or rather, what are you afraid of?"
Tan Le stopped struggling, and after looking at Su Mo for a moment, he actually smiled, "I remember you, you are just like me, we are the same..."
Just like him, he is a madman, a pervert, and a psychopath.
"Thank you, thank you for letting me wake up."
His eyes were fixed on the dagger in Su Mo's hand, "Are you leaving? Can you keep it?"
Chapter completed!
