Chapter Ninety-Six: Investigation

"No, I can't die like this, I still have to conquer the White Tiger Gate, and I have to cultivate to the highest level, control the Immortal Gate, control the Ning family, I can't just die in reincarnation!"

Ning Youlong, who was crazy in an instant, took out a few more talismans and slapped them all on himself, but the talismans that dealt with the attack were completely useless at this moment.

Ning Youlong's body was still dissipating, like the dust of history, gradually buried in the long river of rolling time.

The bodies of Ning Hao and Xue Mi had completely disappeared, leaving only the slender tail of the mouse spread on the ground, like a fuse, constantly spreading and dissipating on the ground.

A violent wind suddenly blew over, instantly blowing away Ning Youlong's struggling and writhing body.

Heaven and earth once again fell into peace, leaving only inexplicable dust flying in the air, as if telling the legendary stories of people in the past.

...

In the crowded bazaar, the vendors shouted loudly about what they were selling, and occasionally pedestrians stopped to pick one or two, but in the midst of some bargaining, they left with disdain.

Xu Sheng put on a smiling face, pulled back the guests who were leaving, and finally sold some of his goods at a very low price in all kinds of pleading.

The peddler sighed, something like this, I can't tell how many times a day I have to do it, he gradually looks down on himself, like he is now, when will he be able to earn enough money to treat his mother's illness?

"I really hope this is a dream!" Xu Wen sighed.

Speaking of dreams, he has been having an extremely strange dream recently, in which he and a group of people went through ups and downs, worshiped the immortal gate, and finally became a legendary immortal.

I don't know if it's because of these dreams, he always feels that the world he is in now has a feeling of unreality, like an extremely real illusion, everything that happens around him is like a written script, as if the purpose is to let him gradually collapse and go to despair.

The noise came from the corner of the street, and a group of officials dressed in maroon costumes appeared in the market, with long knives at their waists, like rampant crabs, swaggering to gather the copper coins of each stall.

The money they collect is called joy money, and it is a piece of money that vendors in the street have to hand over.

Xu Sheng didn't know what to be happy about paying this money, this seemed to be the group of robbers rampant in the township, the latest research to collect money, any traders who evaded paying the money would be regarded by them as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh.

Xu Sheng lifted his basket of goods and quietly left his original position, even if he had such money, he was unwilling to give them it.

Xu Sheng, who bowed his head and left quickly, suddenly found that a pair of black sharp-horned official boots appeared in front of him, and several officials with meaty faces blocked his way.

I saw one of the officials sneer, picked up the scabbard, and struck Xu Sheng's head with one blow, instantly slapping the malnourished thin body to the ground......

Xu Sheng was imprisoned for ten days, and finally he begged the officials and promised to give ten times the money he had not paid before, and then he was released.

Xu Sheng, who was released, stumbled home, in a mud house full of cracks in the walls, a white-headed old woman was lying on the bed, her eyes closed tightly, and she was silent.

"Auntie!"

Xu Sheng threw himself in front of the old woman, but found that his mother had no breath at all, and she had not come back for ten days, and she was starved to death.

A few days later, Xu Sheng sold his house, furniture, and everything for a very low price.

He used all the money to bury his mother. Then I found a restaurant and ate a big bowl of noodles with the few copper coins I left. Yunnan

On this day, Xu Sheng sat on the edge of the cliff and said to himself: "The world is a big dream, how many times is life cool?

Xu Sheng closed his eyes, only feeling that the whole person was fluttering in the wind on the top of the cliff, and he felt that he was about to be relieved.

Suddenly, he suddenly opened his eyes, only to see a light of wisdom awakening, and many things gradually appeared in Xu Sheng's mind.

"Why can't I remember any details of my time in prison, what was my life like as a child? And when did my mother get sick? Why are these memories so blurry?"

Xu Sheng knocked his head hard, as if something important had been forgotten by himself.

"My memories of my whole life are incomplete, is it really something wrong with my brain? No, no, the voice that has been ringing in my head since I was a child, it seems that someone is reminding me of something. It's like being asleep and someone is calling me to wake up!"

"I, I, I'm not Xu Sheng!"

His eyes suddenly opened, and he saw that the ordinary appearance that originally belonged to Xu Sheng began to change, and in the end, he became a completely different person.

This man slanted his eyebrows and sideburns, his eyes were like morning stars, full of wisdom and light, and when his eyes swept around, the space around him began to crumble little by little.

A circular arch appeared in front of it, and inside the door there was a huge mountain floating in the sky.

He was suddenly blessed with a heart, and took a step towards the void in front of him. He stepped on the air step by step, and the auspicious clouds grew on their own, and they simply walked to the top of the mountain.

I only heard someone congratulate: "Congratulations to Daoyou, investigate the secret!"

The man seemed to think for a moment, and then sighed, "So that's how it is!"

A group of people dressed in various costumes were gathering at the top of the mountain to look at him, only to see him hurriedly clasp his fists and say: "In Xia Xu Wenying, I inadvertently entered the immortal gate and met all the immortals!"

One of them said: "How can there be any immortals here, since we can get out of that reincarnation illusion, we will be the same door in the future!"

The scholar raised his head, but found that it was a big bird with a long neck and long legs who was talking in front of him, and the big bird smiled at the scholar with a human attitude, and then looked at the sky intently.

Xu Wenying discovered that there were more than a dozen mirror-like things in this sky at the same time, and the mirrors reflected the scenes of many people's lives.

Some of them are farmers, who work and farm, and live a monotonous life, some are thrifty young women, who serve their husbands and take care of their sons every day, and some are ordinary wild beasts, who ambush the jungle border every day, and wonder when they will rush into the flock to feast on the unpreparedness of man.

Time passes extremely quickly in these scenes, often in the blink of an eye, and months have passed.

At this time, there is a picture of a farmer standing, only to see locusts flying by him, countless crops destroyed, the farmer looked at the remains of the crops in the field, extremely indignant, only to see a mouthful of blood spurting out, staining the placket of clothes in front of him.

With the death of the farmer, the mirror also disintegrated and decomposed in the void, as if there was no longer any need for existence.

Someone next to him sighed and said, "Another one who is lost in reincarnation, it's a pity, it's a pity." ”

Only then did the scholar realize that when everyone stepped on the last step, they had actually entered such a fantasy world.

And those who are lost in the illusion have vanished and can no longer live.
