I stared at the pocket watch in my palm, and the dense values were like a life-threatening Gu worm, so that I didn't dare to look at it a second time.

Give it a try, but how do you know if you don't try it?

The doors of the Night Villa slowly opened, and a dull, heavy metallic sound echoed throughout the lobby. I stretched out my hand, and a white light mixed with pale golden stars flew out of the villa, turned into a carriage, and quietly stopped in front of the villa. A hexagonal sachet hangs from each of the four corners of the carriage's canopy, and a long tassel flutters in the wind.

The snowflakes fell silently again, and □□ was silent.

Fearing the silence of the environment, I stretched out my hand and pointed to the sachets that hung down at the four corners and tied a few bells to each of them, making a crisp and ethereal sound with the wind and snow.

With all this ready, I once again turned my gaze to the values in my pocket watch. Actually, this time I was able to read it. It wasn't the method I learned from any source, but the familiarity that seemed to have been carved into my blood and bones made me understand the meaning of all the engravings.

It's wonderful, and it's sad.

I have such a thing, up to the nine heavens and down to the netherworld, and the eight wilderness * three realms and nine states for me to roam. Can it be ...... I couldn't take a single step.

I also want to see those altars, shrines, secluded mansions, and the underworld, I also want to see the Xianchi Erhai Dragon Palace and Phoenix Palace, I want to go all over the rivers, lakes and seas to visit all the famous mountains and rivers, I want to try the joy of the world to see all the glitz and luxury.

If I could do it, I'd rather do it with my never-ending life. Everyone in the world seeks eternal life, but what is the point of living like a prisoner like me?

Today I want to try, not because I am finally unwilling to be lonely and want to break through this pool of stagnant water. And simply because—

I want to help, people who need my help.

I don't know why I'm here, I've been here since I can remember. I have nowhere else to go but here. This villa seems to be the meaning of my existence.

Then I will be faithful to the duty that fate has given me, and to my heart.

I gritted my teeth, clutched the pocket watch tightly in my hand, and lifted my feet to try to cross the threshold that separated me from the outside world and imprisoned all my freedom.

Don't feel it?

The overwhelming ecstasy came to me, I, I can?!

Can I cross this barrier and fulfill my heart's desires? Can I escape from this gorgeous prison that imprisons me, and see the famous mountains and seas that often appear in my dreams, and all kinds of prosperity?

I rushed out in ecstasy, wanting to get on the carriage and gallop thousands of miles.

But for a moment, I broke down.

Every skin on the whole body seemed to be forged on the hellfire, and every blood seemed to start boiling and screaming to burst through the blood vessels!

I rolled to the ground, wallowing on the ground in pain. It had become a blur in front of my eyes, and the only thing that caught my eye was the boundless white, and a few snowflakes fell on my eyelashes, which was a little cold.

The horse's front hooves lifted me and flew me back to the gate of the villa, and the pain of the mountains and seas disappeared in an instant, and the reality of the world made me feel that what I had just done was just an evil dream, and I would never want to remember it.

I failed...... Again, to be precise, I failed.

The watch fell one step beyond the threshold, a distance that was like a merciless mockery of me.

Oh, even you dare to laugh at me?

I grabbed the watch, reset the values, and rushed out of the villa with a lunge, leaping into the carriage before the pain struck again.

"Drive!" I drove the carriage, holding the pocket watch tightly in my hand, and there was only a trace of reason left to control the value of the pocket watch engraved plate, and the rest of the landslides and tsunamis that were painful and shattered, as long as I didn't think about it, none of it had anything to do with me!

"Ah......" The carriage drove into the space tunnel, and I felt that oppressive aura, which corresponded to the pain in my body and even in my soul, and I only wished I would die in the next moment.

Something was tearing my fur piece by piece, what was the force that burned my eyes and my bones......

Bear with me a little longer, bear with me a little longer......

Bear with me, ...... for a while

The tremendous pressure crushed my entire body to deform, and the veins of my whole body were pulled out of my body and stretched far away, and thousands of tarsal maggots rushed out of my flesh and bones to bite my reason, which had stretched to the limit......

"Uhh

I finally couldn't stand the extreme torture, the carriage overturned, and I was sent back to the villa with a force.

The horses disappeared in front of them with a mournful cry, and the place where the carriage had been parked was now a vast expanse of snow.

Failed again......

But this time, I've held on to half a pillar of incense for an extra time.

It's a bit of progress, isn't it??

I can't see the misery I am now, and I don't want to. Because this time is different from the previous ones, as soon as I return to the villa, all the pain will disappear in an instant. And this time, there is still residual pain that still torments my body and mind.

The hand unconsciously stroked the body/body, and I was surprised to find that all the punishments/punishments just now were just too real imaginations, and it turned out that the pain brought to me by the outside world was not just as simple as cramping and peeling, once I stayed for a long time, it would automatically escalate. From the sight and hearing of a series of senses, it tortures me and drives me crazy!

What's the point?

Why?

I hugged my knees and curled up in the beautiful lobby of the Night Villa, where nothing was not exquisite and nothing was elegant, and I couldn't cry.

Where did I come from, what did I do wrong, and why did I do this?

I'm just, an ordinary life......

I, like all life, longed for freedom.

I...... What's wrong?

yes, I didn't do anything wrong at all.

I am without sin.

And what qualifications does this villa have to imprison me here? Is there a task for me? Ridiculous.

If helping tenants is a task, then I can't get out of it, how can I complete the task? This pile is so illogical, so there is no common sense, so what is the point of this?!

I was given a mission, given a mission, and restricted my steps, and I was destined to be unable to complete it at all.

Is that going to force me to die?

That's it, that's it.

Since you gave me this life, I will pay you back today.

Stretching out his hand, the carriage reappeared, exactly the same as Fang Cai's car, only the snow outside the house was one foot deep, which was different from Fang Cai.

I tightened my watch, jumped and sat down again, grabbed the reins, and rode my horse!

Today, either you will simply take my life, or let me break out of this cage and never be able to trap me again!

The carriage swept through the dust, and then entered the space tunnel, and the data in the palm of the watch was running rapidly, approaching the Shengguo at this time in the human world little by little.

The residual pain in the body has not been removed, and the new pain is stacked again. I tossed and turned again in pain, and when I couldn't do it, I had to pound the wall of the carriage with my head, and the bells at the four corners rang from time to time.

There are no words to describe the pain I feel at this moment, and for a long time, I didn't even know if I was alive or not......

As the minutes ticked by, I don't know how long I endured.

The pain went to numbness, and then to a new wave of severe pain, and wave after wave of severe pain rolled over me, and there was no end......

Finally, I finally heard the soft jingle of the pocket watch in my hand, and I knew I had arrived...... I almost crawled and lifted the curtain, and the Sheng King's Palace appeared in my blurred vision in the midst of a sea of fire, slowly changing into two colors, red and white. Gradually, however, there was only one color left—

It's dark.

......

——————

I still didn't make it to the end, and when I woke up again, I was devastated when I saw the intricate and ornate carved beams in the lobby of the villa.

I failed again......

After the severe pain of cramping and peeling my bones, it was a feast of punishment for multiple stimulation of sight and hearing, and after enduring this wave of pain, it was compulsory, which put me into a coma.

If this is a problem, then it is a problem that repeats itself and eventually becomes unsolvable.

All I can do is try again and again, and endure more and more persevering each time......

But I'm afraid I can't do it.

Because my body couldn't bear the pain anymore, I began to have unconscious spasms. My brain couldn't control them anymore, I couldn't exert any strength at all. Those sharp pains were still eroding my body, and the waves were stronger than the waves, as if I had been bitten by thousands of Gu worms, and the pain was unbearable.

I looked desperately at the incomparable décor and exquisite furnishings of the Night Villa. These things are just dreams, no matter how beautiful they are, they are just floating dreams. Actually, I've never owned anything here, including me as a person.

Oh, yes. Even I am not myself.

I am not the master of the Night Villa, but the slave of the Night Villa. I am bound here for eternity and eternity, and I feel endless hardship and despair every day, from which I cannot escape. I can't choose the path I'm going to take, I can't handle what I'm going to do, or even ...... Can't decide whether I live or die.

I was like a walking corpse, without a will of my own.

"Hua Xi, you don't like to laugh lately. Sheng Xue looked at me sitting side by side on the stairs with her, tilted her head and asked.

"Because there's nothing to laugh at. My tone was unwavering.

She seemed a little strange, and she struggled to raise her hand to pull my face, and I turned her face weakly and cooperatively, but the expression on her face was as fierce as the wind and snow.

"Ah, you're so scary. She stuck out her tongue, a gesture that added some life to her pale cheeks.

I tightened her cloak for her, she didn't like to move around, and the collar of her cloak was always ripped open by her.

"Hua Xi, the red plums in your garden are so beautiful, can you take me over and pick two plants?" she looked at me expectantly, and I couldn't refuse this look.

I stroked my arm, which still had a lingering pain, but it should be out of the way to pick her up.

I stood up and grabbed her and held her firmly, and slowly but steadily carried her to Hongmei's side.

A little bit of delicate red, illuminating her face. 166 Reading Network
