Chapter 34: The Biggest Scam
The human heart is terrifying, and even the Heavenly Master has to guard against it. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Let's go!" Li Xuyang said helplessly. Since Zhong Kui doesn't believe in himself, there is no need to go together, that will only deepen the contradiction.
"Let's go. Zhao Yu nodded, but he was secretly happy in his heart. If you want to deal with Li Xuyang, Zhong Kui is an absolute obstacle by your side, and you can only get rid of it.
The two of them walked out of the Broken Soul Road unimpeded, and none of the heads on the wall dared to make trouble. After all, Li Xuyang has such a powerful person around him, and they don't want their heads to be flattened.
After walking out of the Broken Soul Road, the two followed the only path in the direction of the Yinyang Well.
There are many legends about the Yinyangjing. Some people say that the water in this well is the Meng Po soup that Meng Po gave to the reincarnated people. It is also said that in this yin-yang well, whether it is a person or a ghost, as long as you look at the yin-yang well, you can reach your own future in it.
As for whether the two statements are true, Li Xuyang doesn't know, and he can only go to verify them to know that the statement is true.
And to reach the Yin Yang Well, you still need to pass through a place where Li Xuyang has come, that is, the Broken Soul Slope. That is, the location where the Spirit Gathering Banner was found, but I don't know if there are still many ghosts in this place now. But I think those ghosts should have left or been destroyed by Hades.
Broken Soul Slope is a not very big mountain, there is no grass on the mountain, and the only thing that can be seen is loess. It is said that the Broken Soul Slope is the place with the most yin qi in the underworld, and many people who do not want to be reincarnated after death and commit the crime of going to hell will flee here. Of course, this also needs to be able to cross the wall of thoughts, otherwise you will not be able to reach the Broken Soul Slope.
Li Xuyang walked on the road, thinking about Hades all the time, although he still blamed himself, but this self-blame had turned into hatred. He just wanted to seal the Hades King again, otherwise he wouldn't have gathered the Five Treasure Artifacts to make up for the mistakes he had made in the beginning.
"What's wrong with you? Zhao Yu looked at Li Xuyang, who was walking side by side with him, and then asked.
"How can I be so happy? So many things happened at once. Li Xuyang said expressionlessly.
"Where did you go in the beginning, what happened, why did you show up in the lawsuit?" Zhao Yu suddenly remembered and didn't ask about it.
"When I first entered the underworld, I entered the netherworld, where I encountered something. As soon as Li Xuyang thought of it, he could think of his previous life and Caijie's mismatch.
What a painful thing it is to love each other but not be able to be together? It is undoubtedly like a gluttonous cat that sees a fish and wants to eat it but can't eat it, and that fish is also placed in a fish tank through the glass.
"Netherworld?" Zhao Yu was a little surprised. "The Netherworld is not in the underworld, how can you enter the Netherworld?"
"I know, too, but somewhere I met a woman, and she told me that it was the Netherworld. ”
"No, the Netherworld, frankly, is above the underworld, but under the heavens. Not everyone can enter or leave the Netherworld, you are mortal, to be precise, you are a half-dead person, it is impossible to enter the Netherworld. The Netherworld must only be able to enter if its name is not in the Book of Life and Death, such as Hades. ”
"Huh?" Li Xuyang didn't believe it, what did she enter not the Netherworld, what was that? Caijie deceived herself? This shouldn't be, she was her lover in her previous life, how could she lie to herself?
But if not, there is no reasonable explanation.
"Don't think about it so much, maybe people everywhere have lied to you. Zhao Yu patted him on the shoulder, and then walked up the Soul Breaking Slope.
Li Xuyang nodded, he suddenly recalled Zhao Yu's words, and felt that he had been deceived from the beginning. From the beginning, Jiang Botong deceived himself, then Wang Xiaokai deceived himself, Liu Fei deceived himself, and he has been deceived again.
He stopped suddenly, stood somewhere, and then looked at Zhao Yu who was walking in front.
I am a fool, I have been deceived from the beginning, and I am still being deceived now, and I have been living in the deception of others.
But relatively speaking, Jiang Botong will not lie to himself, Xiao Yuling'er will not either, and Lu Tianhong and Lu Hao do not need to lie to themselves. Li Yongguo and Lu Xutao? They will not lie to themselves, because they will not get anything from themselves, and all they have is this life.
After Zhao Yu saw Li Xuyang stop again, he turned around and asked him, "What's wrong with you?"
"I've been cheated all the time, all the time. Li Xuyang didn't look at him, but replied.
"Why do you say that?" Zhao Yu asked puzzled.
"You don't understand because no one lied to you. Li Xuyang suddenly woke up to the fact that all this was like a big scam, a game within a game, and he had been guiding himself.
Find the Five Treasures Artifact, and then go to the underworld, nominally to seal the Hades, but this is indeed a conspiracy.
Li Yongguo said that once the Five Treasures Artifact is gathered, there will be other secrets. It's not just that he can seal the Immortal, but he doesn't know what those secrets refer to.
"Yes, I really don't understand. No one lied to me, and no one dared to lie to me, not only because of my strong ability, but because there was no value in being deceived. But you are different, if you are deceived, you will be able to get the Five Treasures Artifact, you will be able to control life and death, and you will be able to change your life against the sky. ”
Li Xuyang looked up at Zhao Yu, and his words seemed to touch him. Five Treasures of the Underworld, Mastering Life and Death, Changing Your Life Against the Heavens?
"How do you know this?" Li Xuyang stared at Zhao Yu, and suddenly had the feeling that the Zhao Yu in front of him was not the previous Zhao Yu.
If Zhao Yu knew it from the beginning, he didn't tell himself, but let it all go according to the plot of all this. Then this Zhao Yu is really not an ordinary ferryman, and it is more likely that he is the mastermind behind all this.
"I know a lot of things, it can be said that from the very beginning, when you went to look for the Immortal Seal, I have been paying attention to you. ”
"Why?"
"Because you are the undertaker, because you pay attention to not be ordinary, because all this is already doomed as soon as you are born. ”
"What the hell are you trying to do, and why are you designing this?"
"You know what? It's so rewarding to find out that you're able to design a real-world story and get those people to do what you're dictated. Zhao Yu closed his eyes, enjoying this pleasure, and suddenly opened them and looked at Li Xuyang: "It doesn't matter who I am, but my purpose is really important, I like to see the choice that a person makes in the most desperate time, which choice will make me more excited." ”
"What choice?"
"For example, the choice between a friend and a woman, the choice between family and friends, the choice between oneself and the whole world..."
"You're enough. Li Xuyang immediately came to him and stretched out his fist and swung towards Zhao Yu.
Zhao Yu immediately dodged away, still smiling in his mouth: "Your strength is not my opponent at all, your opponent is the Hades." Defeat her first, and then defeat me!"
"Zhong Kui was driven away by you, he never wanted to kill me. ”
Li Xuyang only learned that all this had happened at this time, and he believed in a liar and believed in a person who was not good for him.
"You know too late, I don't have Zhong Kui's intervention in my plot, so I can only drive him away. But I didn't kill him, and if it weren't for you, you'd all have to die in a wall. ”
Li Xuyang became more and more incomprehensible, he worked hard to create this game, and he had to save himself in the middle, was the purpose to let himself continue according to his plot? If so, then from the beginning in college, he came forward to save himself, and he had already entered his trap from where he began.
He suddenly felt that the Zhao Yu in front of him was even more terrifying than the Hades King. At least Hades is not as vicious as him, this person is too despicable.
"I give up, I give up. It's what you want, but I'm not going to do it according to your plot. Friends and women, women and family, myself and the world, I don't come to make these choices. Li Xuyang looked at Zhao Yu and said.
"No, you will. That's the kind of story I designed, you have to make choices according to mine, otherwise the world will be over. Zhao Yu showed a sinister face and looked at him.
"Then I'll kill you first. After Li Xuyang finished speaking, he swung his fist again and hit him in front of the door.
Zhao Yu immediately dodged to the side, then kicked Li Xuyang away, and said to him: "Your resistance is useless, the more time you delay, the faster they will die, think about it yourself, do you want to follow my plot?"
"Then if I die myself, this plot will end, right?" Li Xuyang got up from the ground, knocked off the footprints that Zhao Yu kicked on his body, and looked at him.
"If you don't say it, I've forgotten about it. However, it's not too late to decide, you can't die because you're already dead. ”
"What?" After Li Xuyang heard Zhao Yu's words, he suddenly felt like a thunderbolt in the clear sky, hitting him directly in the brain. But on second thought, this person must be lying to himself.
"Don't believe me, you touch your chest to see if there's any heartbeat. ”
How could Li Xuyang believe his words at first, but he didn't believe it, his hands were still raised in disbelief, and then touched his heart. After a long time, he stood completely stunned, and at that moment his own whole world was collapsing.
How is it possible that he is a dead person? Li Xuyang recalled in disbelief, recalling everything, from opening the tunnel to the underworld, to now, everything that happened in between.
When he met Caijie, he was still alive, his heart was still aching, and that feeling was real. Later, when I came to the Ghost Gate, I didn't have anything to do with myself, because the wooden eagle didn't hurt myself at all.
