Chapter 3: The Strange Corridor
"Am I dying again?"
When Qin Sheng regained consciousness, he was stunned to find that he had fallen into a dark void. He couldn't see any light, he couldn't hear anything, he couldn't even feel his body's presence.
And how similar these are to the scene after his death in his previous life.
Qin Sheng wasn't too afraid of death, because he had already experienced it once.
Qin Sheng in his previous life was not called by this name, but he had the nickname of "Love Saint", because since he was in high school, he had a bitter love for a girl in his class, and he persistently chased her for more than ten years.
It's a pity that he was just a fatherless and motherless orphan in his previous life, and he was not particularly good, but the girl was a little fond of vanity, of course, she didn't look down on him.
His efforts not only did not impress his sweetheart, but annoyed one of his rich and handsome rivals, secretly made many trips, tortured him to death, and finally "accidentally" broke the seat belt while cleaning the exterior wall of the building......
Qin Sheng didn't feel much regret about that death, because in that world, he had no relatives and no concerns. And his failed life has nothing to be nostalgic for.
But this time, Qin Sheng was quite reluctant. Because he has a home of his own......
Father Qin Ruhai, although he is not at home all the year round, his strong fatherly love for himself cannot be concealed at all. And this time his father was bizarrely defeated, Qin Sheng always felt a little strange, but unfortunately, he had no chance to investigate now.
Mother Xu Jiayin made Qin Sheng experience the warmth of home for the first time, and realized the maternal love he had only seen in books in his previous life. And now, his mother's coma has become the biggest concern in Qin Sheng's heart.
Sister Qin Yan also made Qin Sheng feel difficult to let go, and at the same time, she was very worried. He was worried that his sister would not be able to live a happy life in the future, and he was even more worried that she would fall into the hands of Shi Yifei, and life would be worse than death.
There is also the well-behaved Ling'er, the uncle and third uncle who are good to him......
In this life, Qin Sheng has too many worries.
Just when Qin Sheng thought that he would be reincarnated again, there was a sudden light in front of him.
After the five senses gradually recovered, Qin Sheng found that he was in a strange corridor.
The corridor has no windows, no candlelight, no electric lights, but it is as bright as if it were outdoors in the daytime, and there is not even a dark corner.
On both sides of the promenade, there are antique gates. The decorative patterns on those gates, although the lines are simple, reveal a sense of beauty full of power, and these simple patterns, Qin Sheng felt unusually familiar as if he had seen them somewhere.
After a little thought, Qin Sheng understood where his familiarity came from.
These patterns are clearly in the same vein as the carvings on his mysterious little sword, although the specific lines are not exactly the same, but the same vicissitudes of life, Qin Sheng is sure that he will not admit mistakes.
There were no handles on these doors, and there were no locks, but Qin Sheng tried to push the door closest to him, only to find that it didn't move at all.
After changing the door, Qin Sheng still couldn't push it open.
"What kind of place is this?" Qin Sheng walked all the way to the end of the corridor with great curiosity.
However, to his disappointment, there was nothing else in the corridor except for this door with a slightly different pattern, and this corridor was actually closed at both ends!
After confirming this, Qin Sheng suddenly felt a little panicked, and thought to himself, "Could it be that this ghost place can't get out?
With apprehension, Qin Sheng tried door by door. And with the disappointment again and again, his heart sank little by little.
When Qin Sheng came to the last door, he was almost in despair. But it was precisely at this time, when Qin Sheng pushed the door again, it was as if the door didn't exist, allowing Qin Sheng to pass through easily.
Suddenly, Qin Sheng's eyes lit up.
He originally thought that there would be a small room behind the door, just like the small hotel he had lived in in his previous life, but what he didn't expect was that after entering the door, Qin Sheng found that inside was a vast garden with pleasant scenery and fragrant fragrance, and an area as large as hundreds of football fields.
In the depths of the garden is a small hut with a very unique shape.
When Qin Sheng walked all the way to the hut, he only heard a "squeak", and an old man in a gray robe walked out of the hut.
The two of them stared at each other with big eyes, both stunned.
After a while, the old man spoke first: "Child, you are so young, why did you enter this Holy Sword of Mercy?"
The old man was thin, his beard was white, and his kind face showed a little sympathy and regret.
Qin Sheng only heard inexplicably: "Compassion Holy Sword, what are you talking about?"
The old man was surprised: "You don't know the Holy Sword of Mercy?"
Qin Sheng said blankly: "Of course I know the Holy Sword, but what does this have to do with me?"
Seeing Qin Sheng's dazed expression, obviously not fake, the old man's face also showed a little doubt, and he asked hesitantly, "Child, weren't you killed by the Holy Sword of Mercy?"
"Of course ......not," Qin Sheng suddenly came to his senses halfway through his words and exclaimed, "Could it be that we are in the Holy Sword of Compassion?"
After figuring out the meaning of the old man's words just now, Qin Sheng was suddenly stunned.
On this continent, it can be said that every child grew up listening to the story of the Sword Master of Mercy. Qin Sheng was naturally no exception.
According to legend since ancient times, more than 10,000 years ago, when the world was in chaos and the demons were dancing, a peerless strong man was born. He held the holy sword, punished all the demons and evil people in the world, and returned the world to a bright future.
This strong man is recognized as the number one master in history, and the Mercy Sword Saint who has been worshiped by future generations for generations!
And the reason why the Sword Saint of Mercy was named "Mercy" was not only because he had saved the common people, but more importantly, the wicked people who were killed by him in the legend did not really die, but were imprisoned in the Holy Sword for reflection.
Once they repent, they will be released by this strong man and return to the world.
And what makes countless strong people leisurely fascinated is that it is said that there are countless secret books of divine skills hidden in the holy sword, and every prisoner of the holy sword who has reformed his evil and returned to the right will benefit inexhaustibly. Even the Sword Saint of Mercy himself, who is said to have learned a lot, is also derived from the Holy Sword.
Although the Mercy Sword Saint disappeared quickly, no one doubted the authenticity of his existence. This is not only because his holy sword remained in the world, but more importantly, the prisoners he released can be said to be more famous than the other.
And the most famous of them is none other than the founding emperor of the Great Shun Kingdom who ruled the world and created an immortal cause 10,000 years ago.
As a prisoner of the Holy Sword, Sheng Shichang is the most famous one, but by no means the only one. And what the prisoners gained from the holy sword was not only martial arts.
Top Danfang, Weapon Secrets, Runic Pattern Peerless ...... Among the holy swords, there is almost everything.
After the disappearance of the Sword Saint of Mercy, in order to compete for the Holy Sword he left behind, there were bursts of bloody rain on the rivers and lakes, and I don't know how many strong people fell because of this.
However, as time passed, the enthusiasm of the strong for the holy sword gradually decreased. This is because people have found that in order to obtain the Sacred Sword Peerless Learning, the conditions are too harsh.
Needless to say, after the Mercy Sword Saint, for more than 10,000 years, the Holy Sword has only recognized the Lord twice, and its difficulty can be imagined.
However, even if you want to become a prisoner of the sword, it is not easy.
The only way to enter the Sacred Sword is to die under the Sacred Sword. And the only way to come out of the Holy Sword is to be released by the Lord of the Holy Sword.
Once he enters the Holy Sword, but the Holy Sword does not have a new owner, then he will disappear into the world forever. And even if the holy sword confesses to the Lord, who knows if the man is willing to release him?
No matter when, the one who can have the holy sword must be a strong man with enough strength, but how many people can't think of such a strong man?
Of course, even if the conditions are so harsh, the Holy Sword of Mercy is still the most dazzling and sought-after treasure on the continent, and it is impossible for ordinary people to just want to see it from afar.
When his father was still alive, Qin Sheng was a wealthy man, but even he didn't have a chance to see the real thing, and even, he didn't know at all whose hands the real thing was in the holy sword.
Now, listening to the old man's tone, they were within the legendary Holy Sword of Mercy, how could Qin Sheng not be surprised?
It's just that after thinking about it, Qin Sheng felt that something was wrong.
Legend has it that if you want to enter the Holy Sword, don't you have to be taken by the Holy Sword? Although Qin Sheng still didn't know whether he was dead or alive now, he was sure that even if he was already dead, he could only die at the hands of that blue-faced young man.
Don't......
Thinking of the familiar patterns on the two rows of doors in the corridor, Qin Sheng thought of an incredible possibility. He habitually reached out and touched his chest.
The familiar little sword still hung around his neck.
However, the moment Qin Sheng's fingers touched the little sword, the little sword suddenly disappeared without a trace, and at the same time, a cloud of colorful light suddenly erupted from where the little sword disappeared, enveloping Qin Sheng's body in an instant, enveloping him like a light cocoon.
"The Holy Sword Recognizes the Lord! This is the Holy Sword Recognizes the Lord!"
Outside the colorful light cocoon, the old man looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief, and the shock in his heart was no less than that of Qin Sheng before.
"I didn't expect that I, Lin Tingzhi, would be waiting for the new owner of the Holy Sword so soon!
The old man muttered excitedly, and a wisp of tears appeared faintly in the corner of his eye.
