Chapter 178: The World After Death
Tick.
Tick...
Tick......
Cool droplets of water trickled down the ruined walls and dripped onto the faces of the cold corpses.
This cold and biting coldness didn't matter to the corpse, because he couldn't feel anything anymore, this was already an empty shell without a soul....
The corpse was paralyzed on his back, there was still a trace of blood on the corner of his mouth, his hands and feet were already cold, his eyes were empty, and it could be seen from this last remaining look that he was very unwilling to die and very painful.
His clothes were in tatters, his chest was open, and a terrible wound was vivid, no longer oozing blood, but it was still shocking.
But no matter how ugly and miserable he looks now, it doesn't matter to the corpse, after all, he can't feel anything, after all, he's just a corpse...
But...
But why... Why... He felt himself, he could feel...
I can feel the coldness of the water dropping on my face, I can feel the pain of my heart bursting out of my body, I can feel the despair that everything is irreparable...
The corpse, and the feeling, so tears began to flow from the corners of his eyes.
“... Am I still alive?"
Yan Qi stood in the midst of the chaos of darkness, looking at the chaotic air that was constantly flowing around him, and slowly whispered.
"There's no way I'm still alive..."
He slowly raised his hand and touched his chest.
“... It's messed up, I can't even keep the last thing she sent. Yan Qi sighed silently, his hand touched the scar on his chest, the terrible scar, and there seemed to be a trace of numbness.
With this amount of bleeding, I'm already dead...
But is that all there is to the world after death?
Is that it, chaos, darkness, cold?
That's...
“... It's lonely. ”
Yan Qi laughed miserably and slowly squatted down.
"Even if there are other lonely souls and wild ghosts to be companions together, at least they can still chatter, they can't see anything if they don't want to fight, they can't feel anything, they die... It's a terrible thing. ”
Yan Qi subconsciously wanted to touch a cigarette from his clothes, but found that there was nothing in his trouser pocket.
"Isn't it... I won't even be allowed to smoke, so I might as well just disappear. ”
With a shake of his hand, he stood up again, began to look around, and without any purpose, began to walk around.
"I'm going to stay here until I'm old, it's better to let me go straight to the ashes, I don't know if Chang Ziming can see me in the future, isn't his yin and yang tea psychic, I hope that when he remembers me in the future, he can invite me to have a cup of tea." ”
Yan Qi, who was talking to himself, trotted two steps at one moment, and then began to stand upside down again, and he used this strange way to make himself accept the fact that he was dead.
“... Well, speaking of which, it shouldn't be possible, that thing is so strong, the human world should be over, but alas, I haven't found what the eye that killed my parents is... And also... Xiaoxue, my brother still hasn't been able to find you. ”
Thinking of this, he suddenly lay on the ground from the upside-down state, and that lovely face began to appear in his mind.
"And you. He slowly raised his hand, put it in front of his eyes, and said with a wry smile.
"Bai Ran, if the human world is destroyed, where will you go? Will you return to your world? However, you seem to have said that you don't belong to any world, so aren't you just like me now, and you can't go anywhere?"
Speaking of which, he really looked forward to Bai Ran coming to the same world as him, if that was the case, even if he stayed here for eternity... Well...
"....child. ”
Suddenly, another voice echoed around it.
Yan Qi didn't pay much attention to it at first, but when he realized that it was another person's voice, he sat up from the ground and looked around, and he was shocked to find that the scene around him began to slowly change.
From a chaotic darkness, it slowly unfolded into a sunlit garden.
"Oh, can you still play like this?"
Yan Qi watched in amazement as he watched the changes in his surroundings and scratched his head in bewilderment.
"In this post-death world, there are still random scenes?"
Just as he reached out to touch the flowers, suddenly, he felt a person standing beside him.
So he turned around sharply and looked at him with a serious gaze.
"Kids. ”
Standing beside him was a tall man, dressed in a pale yellow robe that did not resemble the human wear of this era, with long hair that reached his waist, but it was supple and not a trace of messiness.
His eyes were slightly open, his expression was peaceful and peaceful, and he did not look at Yan Qi, but looked at the flower garden in front of Yan Qi and said.
"I've always, really wanted to talk to you like that. ”
The man's appearance looks very dignified and handsome, not at all like the temperament that the mortal world will have, and his gestures show a kind of elegance.
But Yan Qi always felt that this man's voice was so familiar...
And the faint golden aura emanating from his body also made him feel extremely warm.
“... Are you?"
Yan Qi looked at the man and asked suspiciously.
“... I... No name. The man's eyes were still looking at the flowers, and he slowly raised his hand and stroked over the flowers, which seemed to be alive, following his palm
The rhythm slowly swings.
Yan Qi looked at the man and his actions with some curiosity, thinking about what he said, so he asked directly.
"Are you God? Am I dead and have come to see you?"
Yan Qi's words made the man slightly stunned, and he turned his head and looked directly into Yan Qi's eyes for the first time.
Yan Qi found that his gaze was amber, deep and bright, as if there were thousands of universes hidden inside.
The man and Yan Qi looked at each other for a while, and then suddenly smiled slightly.
"You're funny, if you do die, do you think you'll be able to go to heaven?"
Yan Qi listened to the man's words, and silently lowered his head to think about it, he was really thinking seriously.
“... Well, yes, yes? Well, I've done a lot of good things, I've been very law-abiding and helpful since I was a child, I should still be able to go to heaven, right? Why, the number of places in heaven is so tight?"
Yan Qi looked around the square garden again, feeling that there was no other breath of life other than this man.
The man continued to smile and said slowly.
"I'm not God, and this isn't heaven, so I'm not sure if you can go to heaven or not, but... Aren't you worried about what will happen to the world when you die?"
The man's gaze became a little sharp, making Yan Qi feel a hint of a cold chill.
"This, it's useless for me to care, I'm already dead, but, too, I messed up, and actually agreed to the devil's deal... Whether it's with that snake or with Wen Xinghe... I'm a failure. ”
Yan Qi felt sick when he thought that Agnes had finally handed over his heart to Wen Xinghe.
“... If I had known this, I should have thrown it into the incinerator at that time, so that it could eat enough fire. ”
Yan Qi said angrily, but the man shook his head slightly.
"Kids. ”
He called out to Yan Qi again, he was taller than Yan Qi, so Yan Qi looked a little short in front of him.
"You... Don't you remember me?"
He suddenly said this.
It made Yan Qi even more convinced that this person definitely knew it, at least, his voice, his breath, he had definitely felt it.
"I've been watching you, I've always wanted to talk to you, but my strength is weak now, I can't manifest my true form, until now, the snake that betrayed you... It seems to feel my presence as well, and it retains a trace of power in your body, which allows me to talk to you who have died but whose soul still exists. ”
When Yan Qi heard this, he suddenly raised his head and glared at the man and said.
“... You mean, the serpent, didn't betray me?"
