Redstone Mountain wasn't that far, and although I wished the trail had been longer enough for me to walk for a few hours, it only took me a few minutes to reach the pass.

Red Rock Mountain is nothing more than a huge rock lying there. There was a crack that could only allow one person to enter longitudinally in the stone mountain, and Ding Dang pointed at the crack to indicate that the reflection of my "moon" was inside.

I nodded at her, and walked straight into the crack.

The stone walls on both sides emitted bursts of heat, and I was already sweating after a few steps, and I took off my coat, but this relief didn't have much effect, and the heat seemed to act directly into my body through the skin, scorching me from the heart outward, and I felt that it would not be long before I could breathe fire out of my mouth.

Luckily, the cracks in the mountain weren't too long, and I was able to get out of them before I was fully roasted.

But my mood doesn't change because I have to face the impending death as I get out of the crack. I didn't know what the process of soul sacrifice was like, maybe there was no pain in the whole process, maybe there would be countless huge demons waiting to eat me alive in the mountains, and I had been imagining what might happen next on the way up the mountain.

But all my thoughts seem to have come to naught. There were no demons in the mountain, nothing to stop me, only a huge and empty cavern in front of me, and in the center of the cavern was a stone platform more than three meters high. A huge ball floats on the table.

The ball looked very strange, it felt like a giant glass ball, and there was a lot of black matter in the glass ball that moved irregularly, but no matter how the black thing moved, it couldn't break out of the ball's wall.

This thing reminds me of the black moon hanging from the dome of hell, and they do have some similarity. It's just that the black substance in the "moon" is obviously much thicker. The black substance in the ball on the stone platform can only fill half of the ball.

"Is this what you call a reflection?" I asked, looking back at Ding Dang.

And the moment I turned my head, I was stunned, because there were two people standing behind me, one was Ding Dang, and the other was her brother Ding Dong!

The moment I saw Ding Dong, I wondered if it was a hallucination, but soon Ding Dong told me in a very direct way, and everything that appeared in front of my eyes was real.

It's the same when it's in the museum. Ding Dong suddenly shook his hand and threw out a piece of rune paper, the distance between him and me was only three meters, and I was completely stunned, I didn't react at all, Ding Dong threw out the rune paper like a dagger "poof" and stabbed into my left shoulder!

I exclaimed, but it soon became clear that Ding Dong's attack didn't cause me any pain. I reached out and pulled the talisman off my shoulder, but before I could touch it, the talisman burst into flames and turned into a mass of black ashes.

The black ash seemed to be alive, and it fluttered and flew around me, and then burrowed into my body along the wound in my left shoulder!

I still didn't feel the pain, but my left hand fell off my arm and changed back to what Poor Qi should have been, except that it was still small, as small as a cat. Immediately after, a ball of fire appeared from my chest, and the fire slowly fluttered outward, and it flew away from me!

Not only Qi Qi and Duoji, but also the Tiger Master appeared, and Chaos also crawled out of the ground, and it seems that all my Shikie have appeared because of the talisman just now.

Not only did I be taken aback by this sudden situation, but several of my Shikikiri also looked surprised, especially when they looked back at me and yelled at me as soon as they appeared.

I wanted to speak, but my body was out of my control by this time, and perhaps it was the departure that ended my life in an instant, and I shook my face twice before falling to the ground on my back. The moment I lay down, I saw the guilt in Ding Dang's eyes, and then the whole world fell into darkness, and I heard a burst of cheerful music in my ears, and I seemed to slowly lose all my senses in the music.

Just when I thought that everything would be reduced to nothingness, as if a light shone on my face, I opened my eyes suddenly, and it was indeed pitch black in front of me. But I wasn't surrounded by darkness, for I saw the ball flowing with black unidentified matter!

I tried to reach out and touch it, but my body didn't listen to me at all, and I couldn't even move a finger.

But I could still move my eyes, and I looked to the left and right to see that I was already lying on the stone platform in the center of the cavern. Ding Dang and Ding Dong knelt on either side of the stone platform, their eyes closed, their hands folded and erected on their chests, muttering incantations that I didn't understand.

I tried to speak, but all I could get out of my throat were meaningless syllables, and I guess even if I could speak now, the two siblings wouldn't have bothered me.

Soul sacrifice, I think now they are performing some kind of ritual with my soul, I don't know what the outcome of the ritual is, and now I can only witness with these eyes what is about to happen.

Gradually, the sound of the siblings' spells became louder and louder, and the black substance in the sphere in front of me became more and more active. They tumble and jump, and they keep changing patterns in the sphere, sometimes like fire, sometimes like people...... After hundreds of changes, the motion of the black substance slowed down, and finally settled at the bottom of the sphere, forming a human face.

Although the face was only made of these black substances, I still recognized the outline of the facial features, this face was mine, and I was lying on the stone platform as if I was looking at a strange mirror.

Suddenly, the black face smiled, and a black line hung down from the corner of its mouth, feeling like an hourglass.

I saw a blurry figure approaching me with a black line, and then reached out and grabbed my shoulders. The shadow's hand was warm and powerful, and I was caught by the shadow, and I could clearly feel that I was slowly rising into the air, little by little, towards the orb, and the face in the orb changed shape, and it became a swirling vortex, like the entrance to the gates of hell, and I was being brought into it......

"Ahh

I finally shouted, and I realized that I was no longer on the stone platform I had just been, and I was standing in a warm white light, with nothing but white light. I walked around a bit, and it was amazing that my body was back in my control, and my left hand was back, and the wound on my shoulder was gone, and my whole body was intact.

Is this what it feels like to die?

If that's the case, then it doesn't seem wrong to die like this, at least I don't feel any pain.

But what should I do next?

Just as I was thinking nonsense, the white light in front of my eyes slowly faded, and a cloud of fog began to gather in front of my eyes, and two figures faintly appeared in the fog, it was Ding Dang and Ding Dong, these two people knelt in front of me and looked at me with reverent eyes.

"I love this shell, I feel a qiē."

Suddenly, a half-male voice appeared in my ears, or rather it was directly acting on my brain.

"Who are you? Where are you? What does a shell mean? I asked.

"I have melted into your soul and shared your body," the voice replied to my question in a strange way.

"You're the king?" It occurred to me that I had a contact with the soon-to-be-reincarnated King of the Buddha at the Island Festival, and that the person who helped the King of the Reincarnation had said that the King had chosen me, so the meaning of the voice just now seemed to be very obvious—Ding Dang and Ding Dong had sacrificed not only my soul, but even my physical body, and let the King come to earth through my body.

Am I the reincarnation of the king?

"No, it's not reincarnation." The answer seemed to have acquiesced in its identity, and it clearly read what was in my mind! It then continued: "Someone wants me to see the sins of the mortal world and look at a qiē with a pair of 'fair' eyes, and I think you are probably the eyes that the man prepared for me. ”

"The man you're talking about, his name is Ai Shengping, and he sent me in to open the gates of hell and killed a lot of people, and made an entire city go missing! He felt like he was saving the whole world by doing so! I said.

"Do you think he's doing the right thing?" The king asked me.

"I don't know what your criteria are for judging right and wrong, in fact, it doesn't seem to be useful for me to lie to you, you know what I really think. I really couldn't accept what he did at first, but then I gradually felt that the world should be cleansed. But at what cost? Is it to sacrifice half of the people in exchange for the other half to live like a puppet? If that's the case, I'd rather keep it as it is. I replied.

"Hmm." The king replied to me gently, then changed the subject and asked, "Then what do you think is 'evil'?" ”

"Evil ......" Wang Zhen asked me, it should be a very simple question, but now that I think about this question, I am surprised to find that I have a new understanding of "evil" at some point, I think it may be related to what Candle Dragon said.

What is evil?

Some people think that wolves eat sheep is cruel and evil, but people eat sheep is fair; Animals fight and even kill each other for territory, people think that this is the law of survival in nature, and there is the same struggle between people, but no one thinks that this is the law of nature; It is undoubtedly a crime for someone to kill someone for money, but animals can also steal food and kill their own kind......

If we look at this issue from a higher perspective, perhaps "evil" is not something unique to the human soul, it is the nature of all living beings!

"Is that your answer?" Again, the king used mind-reading on me.

"I don't know, I actually feel contradictory, even if evil is a nature, I still don't think it should be condoned. Hey, I really don't know how to explain this, why don't you give me a correct answer, you are God, God should be omniscient and omnipotent, right? I asked the king.

"God...... This is just wishful thinking on the part of human beings. There's a very interesting statement in your memory, which I think is more appropriate - I'm just a special life form in another dimension. ”

A special life form from another dimension?

The answer seems to lead the topic to a more esoteric direction, dimensions, special life forms, I usually like to watch some science fiction movies, and the king should have found these words from my memory of those movies.

But I didn't want to talk about any dimension or anything like that, so I quickly dragged the topic back to the point: "Let's talk about me." What are you going to do with me? Just take possession of my body and run from hell to earth? ”

The king didn't answer me right away, but he should have decided to send me a message in another way.

The warm white light around me faded away, replaced by darkness, and then a crack appeared in the darkness, and my whole being rushed out of it.

Ding Dang and Ding Dong still looked at me with pious eyes, but this time the two of them knelt directly in front of my eyes. I could see them, but I couldn't control my body, it felt like I was already in the passenger seat, and now the person who was driving was replaced by the bargejack.

I don't want to blame Ding Dang for Ding Dang's calculation of me, and I don't want to investigate the reason, after all, the person who deals with her is a death assistant, and I have seen this guy's brainwashing ability more than once - maybe just like he told me before, everything Ding Dang did was for his brother, or maybe he promised Ding Dang something about it, but those are no longer important, I saw the guilt in Ding Dang's eyes, That's enough.

Suddenly, my body floated and my feet lifted off the ground, and the feeling of levitation was amazing.

I flew out of the crack in the Red Rock Mountain, and gradually accelerated as I flew, and when I left the crack in the Red Stone Mountain, I flew straight into the air, towards the huge moon hanging in the dome.

The moon grew larger and larger, and as I approached it, it was so large that it almost obscured the entire dome, and a door opened in the thick black, and I followed it into the darkness. There was a light in the distance, and I flew quickly towards it, and when I rushed out of it, everything around me became familiar to me—I was back in the city.

I was standing in front of the door of a small three-story building, the style of the small building was a little old, the clothes of the people and their hairstyles looked very retro, there were not many cars, but bicycles were everywhere, and it seemed that I had entered a time tunnel through that darkness, back to twenty or thirty years ago.

"Where is this?" I asked the king of the barge.

However, it did not answer me, but took my body into the door, went up to the third floor, and gently pushed open the door of a house on the third floor. The giant doctor looks for blood.

The house was filled with laughter, and a family of three was sitting around the dining table chatting happily over breakfast.

My eyes fell first on the child's face, his hairstyle and dress made me judge that he was a boy, but his face was very beautiful, as beautiful as a girl, as if he had completely inherited his mother's beauty.

This reminds me of Ai's life!

"This is Ai Shengbi's home? His childhood? I asked again.

"Eat quickly, your father will send you to school after eating." The mother urged with a smile, and her words substituted for the king's answer.

The child nodded vigorously, then quickly ate the food in the bowl, and after putting on his coat and carrying his bag, the child followed his father out of the house and sat on the back shelf of the bicycle to rush to school.

I followed the father and son all the way to school. This part of the road seems to have passed through a corridor of time, the child has gradually grown up, and when he came to the school gate, he has become a teenager, this time I recognized his face, he is Ai Shengping, and the person who sent him to school is the adoptive father who was stabbed to death by him.

However, Ai Shengping's adoptive father did not show a fierce appearance, and he smiled and waved goodbye to Ai Shengping.

When Ai Shengping entered the campus, several familiar faces immediately appeared at the main entrance of the teaching building, and they were the students who had committed violence against Ai Shengping. They walked up to Ai Shengping, and then said with a smile: "You are finally here, the squad leader is going to be angry, you are the starring role in the school celebration show, hurry up and rehearse!" ”

After speaking, several people dragged Ai Shengping back to the building.

Ai Shengping always had a smile on his face, and as he laughed, he looked back at the school gate and nodded at me.

I was stunned for a moment, and in an instant, the qiē in front of me changed dramatically again, and I came to a place that looked like the depths of the Red Mountain, where there were flames and lava everywhere, and my ears were filled with screams of pain.

I saw a lot of devils with horns on their heads, a crimson blood wolf, and strange monkeys jumping, but I was more concerned about people who were chained and nailed to the volcanic rock.

The men were burned all over, but they were not dead, they continued to tear their throats and scream in pain, and their shouts did not alleviate the pain, but attracted the blood wolf. The blood wolf tore off a piece of flesh from behind them and swallowed it into their stomachs, and the strange monkey then rushed over and drank the blood with relish from the wound that the blood wolf had bitten.

"That's what it is...... Hell? I asked.

"This is the hell of Ai's life, and those sinful souls will be tormented in hell, while the good parts will live a peaceful and warm life on the other side of the world." The king replied.

"Is this how he cleansed the whole world?" I continued to ask.

"Yes, the gates of hell will be open forever, and all will be cast into hell. Like you said, it's human nature that everyone has evil thoughts in their hearts. The king replied.

At this moment, a familiar voice came from a volcanic rock: "Boss, save me, help me!" ”

I followed the sound and looked over, and it was Wang Shan who was bound there by chains! Several blood wolves were surrounding her, ready to tear the flesh off her.

"Brother Le! Save me! ”

Another voice is calling me, this time it's Lowe!

"Master!"

"Chang Le!"

"Son!"

……

One voice after another poured into my ears, and around me appeared the people I knew best, all of them were good people, but now they were all tied up in hell and tortured.

"That's not right! That's not right! This is completely wrong! I shouted loudly, closing my eyes and covering my ears with my hands, because I didn't want to see the people I cared about suffer, and I couldn't bear to hear their screams.

Miraculously, I was able to control my body, and I literally closed my eyes and covered my ears.

Gradually, the light in front of my eyes disappeared, and I could not hear any sound in my ears, and the whole world seemed to be in chaos.

My consciousness was clear, and instead of feeling fear or pain because of this void chaos, I felt incomparably warm and peaceful. I was floating in the chaos for an unknown amount of time, when suddenly a light appeared in front of me, and then a door opened, and a hand reached out from behind it.

Instinctively, I reached over and grabbed the hand, which also held me tightly and pulled me hard towards the door.

Whew, I slipped out of the door and staggered to the ground. There was a smell of earth on the ground, which made me feel familiar and familiar, and I rolled over and lay on the ground, looking at the pine forest around me, and I seemed to be back, from where I went in and where I came out.

"Are you alright? Hey, Chang Le! ”

Someone was asking me and still slapping me in the face, and I rolled my eyes to look at the person who called me. It turned out to be Xi Lin, and there was another person next to him, it was Xiao Ai!

I sat up abruptly from the floor, then looked at them in amazement and asked, "What's going on?" How are you two together? Here it is...... Hell? Or paradise? ”

"It's not hell or heaven, you still have to suffer in the mortal world for the rest of your life." Xi Lin replied.

I couldn't help frowning, then looked at Xiao Ai and asked, "What the hell is going on?" ”

"It's Ai Shengping, he knows that you will choose to close the gates of hell, so he asked me to go to Xi Lin to pull you out of hell. He knew he was doing something excessive, but he was completely immersed in the whole process, he needed someone to stop him, he chose you, and you did it. Xiao Ai replied.

Stop him? Stop the death assistant?

My mind was a little confused, and I couldn't figure out what was going on for a while, but now was obviously not the time to think about these issues, I was more concerned about the situation in Linghai City, and more concerned about the missing people.

When I followed Xi Lin and Xiao Ai back to the hotel in the mountain pass, I saw the people of the search and rescue team, who were the three missing search and rescue team members. When they saw me, they waved at me, and I ran over to them and asked them what had happened, and they said that they had been hit on the head and had a strange dream about a horned demon and a wolf covered in blood.

As I walked back from the hotel to the city, I met a lot of people on the way, and almost every time I met someone I asked if anything strange had happened to them lately. I'm waiting for you in hell: wonderful

Their answers were almost identical, they all had a strange dream of a demon, a blood wolf, a monkey, and a volcanic hell.

I met Wang Fugui in the city, and I also saw Chen Shuhai, and they had forgotten all about what had happened, and only remembered a vague dream, and as for Ai's life and death assistant, they had no impression at all.

That night, I also had a strange dream when I went to sleep.

I dreamed of Ai Shengping, he lived a pleasant school life in school, there was no violence, no crime, nothing he didn't like, but there were only a few people around him, and there were only people in his class in the school.

I asked him where the others had gone.

Ai Shengping replied with a smile: "I choose the people who stay, and the people you choose to take away." ”

When I woke up the next day, I finally understood Ai's plan and his self-salvation.
