Chapter 553, The End of the Great Tribulation
"Who did it, and what happened when I lost my memory?" I looked at Honglian's corpse and asked with a trembling voice. I don't understand why so many things happen when it's just a short moment.
"You probably don't know. You've been unconscious for more than six hours. Yang Yaxin said.
"Six hours?" When I heard this, my heart was full of consternation. I wouldn't have imagined that I had lost six hours of memory. Something must have happened during this time.
Yes, what about Sima Yi? How is he doing now? It occurred to me that I had an idea. But there was a panic in my heart. Because Sima Yi is my last hole card. Because of his presence, even if I face a strong opponent, I can still have the last laugh.
After all, I share the same body with Sima Yi, so he won't be able to live if I die. This made him stand up for his own survival every time I was in danger.
But now, where did Sima Yi go?
I began to call Sima Yi in my heart. But Sima Yi never responded, as if he was dead. This made me a little panicked. Could it be that Sima Yi was killed?
What kind of battle he had had with that black shadow, and why he had disappeared, all of this possibly made me wonder very much.
But now, I don't seem to have a choiceβ I sighed quietly and didn't say anything more. And outside, the police, the military, are everywhere.
This is a catastrophe of all kinds, and we are the only ones who have managed to escape. As for the others, they are already dead.
Those who have not experienced it cannot understand the cruelty of this disaster. The balloon with human heads in the sky. Terrifying monstrous screams. and the corpses hanging in mid-air, which have become a long-term nightmare for the survivors.
At the border, countless servicemen have arrived, and even some terrible weapons. But none of this is of any use to the borders. Because the border simply cannot be broken by ordinary weapons.
I was in the hospital and I was mentally exhausted. And so do others. This time the human head balloon, although the time was quite short. But neither the speed of the spread, nor the people killed. It's all terrifying to an unimaginable number.
What we have experienced is like a terrible nightmare, only to wake up to find that everything we once knew was gone. This is perhaps the horror felt by everyone who has experienced the Great Tribulation.
In just three days, the border was finally opened. Wait for the border to open and the fog to clear. It was only then that people discovered that the whole city had become a living hell.
There were no human head balloons, just wreckage and corpses of all kinds. This scene alone is unimaginable.
What exactly has the city been through? I'm afraid no one will know. But from the collapse of the building, as well as the degree of damage around it. It can be faintly felt. There was a big war here.
I was dressed in hospital clothes, sitting in a wheelchair, staring at the edge of the city, silent in my heart. Now the entire city has been cordoned off, and only professionals can enter.
"It is said that there was a terrible battle in the city, and even many buildings collapsed." Yang Yaxin said.
"Really?" I said calmly, but my eyes were on the city. My body trembled, and I didn't know what to say. At this time, I felt powerless than I had ever been.
After experiencing this cataclysm, it has had a huge impact on my soul and at the same time made me understand the importance of strength.
I'm just a True Soul Realm now, and compared to the Realm Soul Realm, it's not a grade at all. That's why I have to improve. Only by becoming stronger can you get revenge, otherwise everything is empty talk.
"Let's go back." I said in a cold voice, and then with a firm face: "We have more important things to do." β
"Hmm." Yang Yaxin nodded. Then he pushed the wheelchair and took me and started to go back.
We are now in a strange city, because our city has been completely destroyed. It's going to be extremely difficult to rebuild. After all, this is not an earthquake, but a curse that is ten thousand times more terrible than an earthquake.
A month later, Chinese New Year's Eve.
In our hometown in the countryside, we had a difficult New Year. So much has happened this year, but at least most of them are there anyway.
The hometown in the countryside was not affected by the human head balloon. As a result, not a single one in the village was injured. But I've heard that in the surrounding villages, I don't know how many people have died.
It made me wonder, but I didn't say it. Either way, it's good that my family survived.
Sitting on the steps, I was calmly looking at the night sky. At this time, my grandmother came over slowly, although she was still old, but I could feel that my grandmother was definitely not an ordinary person.
"Grandma, the reason why there are no head balloons in the village is because of you, right?" I didn't look back and asked.
"What do you say, how can I have such a great ability." Grandma said slowly. She is on crutches, which makes people feel a kind of majesty. This is the bearing that an old man who has lived for a long time should have.
"Don't lie to me, though I can't be sure yet. But grandma, you must be strong. I turned my head and looked at my grandmother. In my heart, grandma has always been a big mountain.
Since I was a child, I lived with my grandmother in the country, in the village, and I was respected because of my grandmother. No matter what it is, putting it in front of grandma is not a thing at all.
She is the kind of character who is not in a hurry even if she encounters something big. It's this kind of personality that makes me feel at ease.
"I'm an old lady, so I don't care so much." Grandma said calmly on crutches.
"Grandma, I'm confused right now." I turned my head and said in a weak voice.
"What is there to be confused about? You're a man. It can't go on like this. "Grandma came over and hugged me in her arms. I felt her warm embrace, even though she was thin. The voice said softly: "Many people have died, but I can't save them. β
"Hey." Grandma sighed, then said softly to me, "Go to the City of Despair, where you can be strong." β
"Hmm." I nodded. Now I can feel it vaguely. Grandma hid a lot from me. But she also helped me a lot.
"Let's eat. Fireworks are about to go off. After the New Year, you can leave. Grandma turned her head and glanced at me, her eyes showing a hint of reluctance.
"Hmm." I nodded, then turned and walked into the room. And just as I walked away, my father came to my grandmother.
"Is that really good? Keep your grandchildren with you, safer than that place. β
"Well, I want to, too. But I understand Xiaowei's character. He won't be willing to be protected by me. Grandma sighed, and her old face showed a trace of exhaustion: "Otherwise, I don't want him to stay with me." β
"It's getting more and more dangerous out there now. I had just returned from the provinces, and something big had happened there. Father said with a frown.
"Hey, that's the way of the world. Spirits are rampant. Grandma shook her head, her voice a little helpless.
"According to the information I have obtained, this time the human head balloon thing was done by him." Father said.
"Him? As expected. There are not many people who can do such a big deal today. Grandma said with a deep groan, but her face became stern.
"900,000 people died, and many of the remaining survivors were also insane. Now the situation is troublesome. But I wondered, why did he leave the survivors? Father said. Remember the blood of the bird pond.
"Hmph, it's not to get the survivors to spread the panic. By then, he would have gained more than he had lost. Grandma shook her head, her eyes a little disdainful.
"Xiaowei is fine this time, but who knows next time. I'm not going to protect him. Father hesitated.
"No need, he's already a big boss, and it's time for him to be in charge. Let's not keep treating him like a little doll. He'll be upset that way, too. Grandma shook her head and retorted.
"But," my father tried to argue.
But the grandmother interrupted him with a gloomy face: "Okay, you don't need to care about this matter. I take the safety of my grandson more seriously than anyone else. β
