Chapter Seventy-Two: Turning the Roulette Wheel of Fate

"So, when this kind old woman died, the star that represented her was extinguished, and the brightest star was never seen again......"

An Xu didn't know what kind of story the young bard was telling, but the ending sounded sad, and the children sat quietly together, their big bright eyes, still trapped in the fantasy world.

A little boy raised his hand: "Then big brother, what do the stars look like?" โ€

"O starsโ€”" said the bard, smiling and touching his head, "every star is a different world, just like us, in fact, we also live on a star, because we are so far away, so we can only see a small bright spot, maybe on a certain star, there are other children watching us!" โ€

"Wow!" The children let out an exclamation, and the little boy asked, "Is there really a star for each of us?" So which star is mine? โ€

The young bard raised his hand in surrender: "This is a big brother, there are so many stars, I can't tell them!" Besides, it's daytime, and the stars are hiding and playing hide and seek with you. โ€

The children laughed like silver bells, and even An Xu couldn't help but laugh, this was the first time he had heard such a statement, and it felt quite novel! When he was a child, An Xu also liked to listen to bards tell stories, they liked to use anthropomorphic techniques, every tree, every tree, every dust and sand, and everything in the world would have wisdom and life in their stories.

Such stories are very vivid and have a strong appeal to children, and of course the world in the story has moved away from Anxu as they grow up.

Seeing that it was almost time for dinner, he stepped forward and wanted to take An Xin and Dai'er home.

Suddenly, the bard turned his head and looked at An Xu with a smile, his eyes bright, like the stars in his story, as if they could penetrate everyone's heart.

"So, do you know which star belongs to you?"

An Xu couldn't laugh or cry, he was not a child, how could he believe in those ethereal fairy tales, but in the next second, he couldn't laugh.

No, it's not so much that he can't laugh, it's that his whole being is imprisoned. Under the gaze of those bright eyes, time seemed to have completely stopped, and An Xu couldn't even feel his body, and he couldn't even blink his eyelids.

Worst! This man is very dangerous!

An Xu secretly screamed in his heart that it was not good, he could freeze himself with one look, such an ability was terrifying, he wanted to resist, but now he couldn't do anything except stay motionless and stay in place.

In An Xu's sight, the other party's right eye actually burned, and it was a soft white flame that had never been seen before, in this white light, An Xu's entire gaze was attracted, and he couldn't see anything else.

I don't know how long it took, but finally, the white light began to dim.

But then An Xu realized that it was not the white light that had dimmed, but that this white light was shrinking! But it didn't take long for him to realize his mistake againโ€”

It's not that the white ball of light is getting smaller, but that it seems to be slowly retreating, and the field of vision is getting wider and wider.

There was still boundless darkness between heaven and earth, only the white ball of light remained, and finally turned into a bright point of light, like a single star in the night sky.

The field of view was still expanding, and another star appeared from the edge, followed by a third, a fourth......

There are a total of nine stars, arranged in a familiar shape, An Xu's eyes widened, isn't this the distribution of star marks in the body? But he couldn't make any sound, he could only watch it all change.

The stars continued to shrink, and a silhouette gradually appeared around them, and finally it turned into a standing human, and An Xu's vision began to rise rapidly, as if flying into the air.

The speed was indescribable, and almost in a matter of seconds, the human shrank to a black dot the size of an ant until it vanished.

In An Xu's eyes, there were countless mountains and thin rivers, and slowly, the sea appeared, and the vast and endless sea surface was several times larger than the land where humans lived.

An Xu was still rising, and he could even feel the clouds floating beside him, and the land and sea below finally came to an end, and in his eyes, it appeared as a beautiful ball.

This is the world I have always lived in! Is this what it looks like?

He was deeply shocked by this scene, at this moment, how small he looked, and even the entire Huiye Kingdom, on this huge sphere, only occupied a small area.

However, the beautiful sphere kept shrinking, getting farther and farther away from him, and the boundless darkness swallowed him like a devouring beast.

An Xu's heart finally began to panic, he didn't know where he would go, everything was so unknown, the ball was quietly suspended in the darkness, as if within reach, but An Xu knew that he was so far away from it that he might not be able to reach it in his lifetime.

His heart kept shouting: Stop, stop!

But it was all in vain, and he could only watch as the ball kept moving away, turning into a star in the darkness.

At this time, he suddenly remembered the words of the bard: each star is a different world, just like us, in fact, we also live on a star.

At this time, he finally understood the meaning of this sentence, and at the same time, he saw another 'star' floating in front of him, this is a blue star, it seems that there is only the existence of the ocean on it.

Another gray star appeared, and one after another, countless stars appeared in An Xu's field of vision, some far away from him, only a vague outline could be seen, and some were very close, huge enough to be thousands of times larger than other stars.

But eventually, the stars turned into small lights that dotted the darkness.

Countless stars flickered and flickered, making An Xu feel for a while, and the star marks in his body actually resonated with these stars, and kept flashing with these stars.

His body emitted a huge amount of heat, making his whole body seem to be burning.

But An Xu couldn't notice this, he was completely lost in the starry sky, forgetting where he lived, forgetting his relatives and friends, and even forgetting himself.

In his world, time flies! He even saw the birth of one star after another, and also saw countless stars perishing, but these were just a drop in the ocean in the starry sky.

Without the initial surprise and shock, and without that kind of enlightenment, An Xu's mood was not shocked, and gradually merged with this starry sky.

He felt that he would continue to drift like this, with no end or end......

"Anxu, wake up!"

Until the cold drink of Bingyan came from his ears, An Xu woke up from his confusion.

As he regained consciousness, these landscapes began to regress along the previous trajectory like a tide, and the speed was countless times that of before, and in the vast sea of stars, a star was instantly enlarged, which was where he lived.

The familiar scenery reappeared, the mountains, the rivers, and the motionless human.

Without stopping, An Xu plunged into his body again, and saw the nine star marks, which were rapidly enlarged, and finally only one of them remained, emitting a dazzling white light.

And in the end, this white light turned into a bright eye, and everything around it returned to normal, the old locust tree was still standing upright in the cold winter, the children were laughing and laughing in front of him, and the owner of that eye was looking at An Xu with a smile on his face.

The young bard closed the book in his hand and slowly walked away, leaving a whisper in An Xu's ear.

"The wheel of fate has begun to turn, have you found the star that symbolizes your destiny?"

It wasn't until his figure disappeared that An Xu felt that his body was free again, and a cold wind blew, making him shiver, and then he found that his clothes all over his body were soaked with sweat.

"Brother, what's wrong with you?" An Xin saw that An Xu was a little abnormal, and took his hand and said nervously.

"It's fine!" An Xu squeezed out a smile, he fell into the vast starry sky, I don't know how much time has passed, but the reality seems to have only passed for a moment, which makes it difficult for him to adapt for a while.

That person just now, he used a spiritual skill on himself?

This was An Xu's first thought, except for the spiritual illusion, it was difficult to explain everything that had just happened, if it weren't for Bingyan's reminder, I am afraid that he would still be lost in the hallucination.

"Who is that man? Why is it so scary. An Xu couldn't help but ask in his heart, such a skill is simply terrifying, but fortunately, the other party doesn't seem to have any malicious intentions, otherwise An Xu feels that he has no room for resistance.

Bingyan was silent for a long time before he said slowly, "Don't you know?" That man, a sorcerer! โ€
