Chapter 866 Survival Game 54

Back in the palace, it was almost dawn.

When Tao Ran returned to his room, he found that the staircase marking where he lived had been changed to the nineteenth floor.

She had just freshened up and before she lay down, there was a knock on the door.

It's a prince.

Tao Ran naturally did not let him enter the room, and spoke first in the coldest and firmest tone:

"I know you came to thank me, and I appreciate it. I bless you and Cinderella, because I really have to leave. I don't want to stay here. Besides, I find that I have no feelings for you at all, so you don't have to feel Sorry, even without Cinderella, I would not have fallen in love with you or agreed to our marriage. So there is no need to apologize..."

The prince's expression was complicated.

Tao Ran couldn't see his mental activities, so naturally she didn't know that after this indifferent expression, the fact was that the prince's affection for her increased by 2%.

Who is the prince who has already decided: Ranran loves him! Otherwise, what was the purpose of everything Ranran did for him and Cinderella? The prince now felt that Ranran's coldness and determination were all just an act, all to fulfill him and make him happy...

So even though he was slammed out of the door by Tao Ran, he still replied inexplicably:

"Last time I said you were the most beautiful, the most sensible, the most considerate, the smartest, the strongest, the bravest, and the most perfect. Actually, I was wrong. I had to add three more. You are still the most noble and unique I have ever seen. , the most selfless person."

Tao Ran was fortunate that every ten floors in the tower attack game were rest floors, so this was the last level of the series.

As long as she endures it longer!

She opened the door and smiled.

"What the prince said made me so excited. Could it be that His Highness has fallen in love with me?"

The prince was stunned, and while blurting out "yes", he shook his head.

Tao Ran was speechless. Is this the NPC brain saying no, but his consciousness admits it? This silly boy!

She started talking nonsense seriously.

"Your Highness, remember I told you that love must be restrained. Most of the time, preferences will be amplified by passion, impulse, freshness, and curiosity, resulting in illusions. Only emotions that have been restrained are real."

Just like online shopping, it is easy to buy too many things on impulse and buy the wrong things and end up having no use. It's better to restrain yourself and put it in the shopping cart first. If after watching it for ten and a half days, after cooling down and the enthusiasm fades, you still like it and still want it, then it must be true love...

The prince nodded stupidly and promised that he would restrain himself.

Tao Rangong saw him off. Restrain it, this thing of emotion will disappear if you restrain it. Even if she can't overcome it, as long as she endures it any longer, she will leave...

After dawn, before Tao Ran could go to the queen to persuade her to marry the two, she heard the news that the king and queen had woken up early and knew that the prince had brought Cinderella back to the palace last night. She was extremely furious and had given the order. Cinderella was locked up.

And because Tao Ran helped the prince search for someone last night, he was also the main helper in finding the girl, and now he is being summoned by the queen.

On the way to the hall, Tao Ran met his teammates who were coming from various places and had also been summoned.

Eight people gathered together, waiting to be received.

Ma Xiaoyuan was very puzzled: "In the fairy tale I read, it was clearly stated that the prince would live a happy life after finding Cinderella. How could the king and queen be so angry?"

Tao Ran didn't comment, but Zhou Chang knew a lot.

"In fact, the earliest fairy tales were all dark. The well-known Cinderella story only took the first half. In the real story, the marriage of the prince and the girl is not the end of the story.

Cinderella's status is not enough. Although her mother's family is barely aristocratic, it is of no use to the royal family. She is not well-educated, she only has beauty. In the opinion of the king and queen, such a girl is not worthy of being the mother of the country. So even after getting married, Cinderella has been fighting with her parents-in-law.

In the original story, after the novelty wore off, the prince eventually got tired of Cinderella, who had no merit. Cinderella died miserably... This is the class gap and family status difference that the original fairy tale wanted to express..."

Tao Ran felt relieved upon hearing this.

She doesn't care where the prince and Cinderella end up. As long as the tragedy doesn't change because of her arrival.

You know, when she heard that the queen was going to deal with Cinderella, she was shocked. She was afraid that the queen would be angry because she wanted the prince to marry her...

Xiaowen suddenly said: "That's right. Let me tell you, I hated this fairy tale when I was a child. What is love at first sight? It's so fake! To put it bluntly, the prince didn't take interest in him? He fell in love at first sight. Yes, it's just the beauty dancing with him. To put it bluntly, it's just a package! It's a shell!

And what about Cinderella? Did he deliberately enter the palace because he fell in love with a prince he had never met? Isn't she just trying to get out of trouble? For her vanity? Her purpose is not pure at all.

Many people think that fairy tales are beautiful, but I wonder, how can such a self-deceiving combination lead to a happily ever after? "

Xiaowen's words reminded Tao Ran.

Isn't it?

She doesn't like this fairy tale either. The reasons are not just what Xiaowen said.

Tao Ran: "Also, if a girl wants to get out of trouble and get ahead, why not use other ways? Why not through her own efforts? Why must she try to please the dignitaries? Why must she wait for the prince to rescue her? Huamei Can true love truly last long and stand the test of time?"

At this moment, Tao Ran suddenly realized that the story she experienced in this survival game, whether it was Rapunzel or Cinderella, had problems with the three views of facts?

Even the starting level of Leifeng Pagoda, the story of Xu Xian and White Snake, which she has not experienced, actually has many problems...

Or is there some hidden purpose in this game?

Could it be that the plots they experienced were unreasonable and needed to be corrected?

If so, did she misunderstand the system?

In a certain sense, isn't she a test for the prince? At least now the prince no longer just looks at people based on appearance!

So, what is the right thing to do?

Should she follow the plot, or guide the plot according to her heart?

…

Soon, Tao Ran's eight people were summoned, and then they were scolded by the king.

The king stopped talking and said that Cinderella had seduced the prince and it would be a shame to die. Even her parents came to express their opinions, saying that their daughter was ignorant and deserved to be punished for making mistakes, and was left to the royal family's disposal.

After the prince begged, the king waved his hand.

The wizard took out a crystal ball.

With a touch of his scepter, a picture flashed in the crystal ball.

The high tower on the mountaintop in the frozen land was swaying in the wind and snow, and Cinderella was trapped in the tower, as if she was in a cage.

"What is this place?" The prince saw Cinderella hiding in the corner and shivering, and he couldn't help but feel distressed.

"That's the mountain." The king pointed to a mountain outside the window.

The mountaintops, which were originally evergreen all year round, have been shrouded in dark clouds, and a vast expanse of white can be seen on the top of the mountain.

Obviously, it was the wizard who did the magic.

"Cinderella is at the top of that mountain."

The king looked at his son:

"Since you say you love her, then go and save her yourself."

…

Suddenly I felt something.

A few days ago, I was having a conversation with my friends. As a result, the author was instilled with a lot of ideas such as "lay down", "salted fish", and "leek consciousness". Several friends felt that the author output too many sharp things and was too critical and cynical.

Thinking about it again, I still can't agree with it.

Since I am the author, I have to output my opinions, stand from the perspective of the victims, and make my voice heard about injustice. And these should be the essential meanings of quick travel stories, right?

Appropriate output shows the author's sincerity and value, doesn't it?

I have been told by an elder since I was a child that the most important thing to determine the value of a movie, TV series, or novel is what you get after watching it. If it can inspire thinking, arouse resonance, and gain opinions, then this work is valuable.

So when writing something, Xi Ye often thinks about how to output values ​​and how to combine them with articles. Therefore, many times, the article structure can be made simpler, but it still becomes complicated.

Purely cool writing; false and empty; fantasy; whimsical; avoiding social conflicts and practical problems can actually be written much easier and more relaxed.

But once you have a pursuit and want to output value, you will feel contradictory and even more tired after writing about it.

Therefore, this article is indeed written completely according to the author's intention. If you find it too troublesome, too wordy, too complicated, not enjoyable enough, frustrating to watch, or not exciting enough, I can only say sorry.

In fact, I had a lot of fun writing this book, and I’m glad to have found many new readers. Thank you everyone for your love~
