Chapter 1 – Cause and Effect

Next Chapter

Someone once said that life is a turbid and evil world, full of sadness, and hasty to avoid round after round of severe cold, just to die in the end. The wealth and glory that was in front of me in a trance had actually turned into ashes, and the broken creatures had come and gone, and the strange men and women who didn't know each other on the roadside had loved and hated. This is the hustle and bustle.

There is only one person, surrounded by snow, as if abandoned by the world, left alone with the white bones under his feet, scattered and accumulated endless road to the top. Surrounded by mysterious snow-capped mountains on all sides, and the scarred blood of that man from hell on his back, why did the holy mountain, which was originally white, become haggard at this moment because of the immersion of one person, and what suffocated was the depth of his sin. The snow-capped mountains wept and trembled and bumped.

He was the only one who remained unmoved, and took a deep step, stepping on the slightly towering "ladder" of corpses, with the bursts of dead bones*, and the blood-stained and rusty sword in his hand rendered on the snow, driving the crimson bloom of the sky. He is tireless, he is the emperor of the world at the moment when he ascends the dragon chair, and the murderous aura behind him causes turbulent waves and rolls up a huge wave of ghosts as thin as a feather. He was about to stand on the highest place, but the last sentence made him lose all the fearlessness in front of him, he froze in front of him, stunned, and some memories that should not have been remembered at this time flashed in his mind. He looked back and saw corpses strewn all over the place......

He was one step away, but he was reluctant to step on the last step of the skeleton, and he saw the sins of his life, and his hands were stained with blood. Knowing that the call from hell was coming, he trembled and knelt before the corpse, and finally bowed his head, threw away the sword in his hand, and moistened the rotten soul with his own tears.

In the heart, he watered a flower of the underworld and quietly bloomed. The corners of his mouth were slightly exposed, and with apology and repentance, he said, "Mo Yu." ”

People, like a dragon, will eventually be imprisoned in the endless abyss if they are strong. The moment the dragon was knocked to the bottom, it was a powerless earthworm, and they gradually condensed an evil belief with greed, hatred, ignorance, and suspicion. Mencius believed that at the beginning of man, nature is good. The baby bathed in vitality, surrounded by a group of greedy people in the mud, instilled in selfish thoughts, and became the next person to survive in the mud - people.

Walking on thin ice, the bottom is the darkness that imprisons the dragon, the ice surface is like a mirror, the dragon sees its own human form, the person knows his own heart, and then the dragon becomes more and more crazy, it wants to escape from this bottomless darkness, it breaks through the last seal, regards the person as a target, and transforms into a black gas and rushes into the sky.

The mountain collapsed and the earth cracked, and the gods were scattered, and the man fell to the bottom. From now on, there will be no eternal life. The remaining blood stains are condensed, and the word is branded: cause and effect.

Cause and effect are rewarded, cause and effect are rewarded. How did it end up?

All greed, all selfishness! It's just a tattered totem! It's just a tattered thing!!!

Xu Tai jumped up from the bed violently, and it seemed that the ghostly scream just now was still ringing in his ears!

Cause and effect! cause and effect! you deserve it! you deserve to die!!

Xu Tai had already broken out in a sweat, and the unspeakable horror of the dream just now, trembling all over, hugging his quilt to look at the darkness when there were no lights everywhere...... The bones, the bloodstains, the mountain vault, and the "stranger" who walked through the bones all the way to the cold...... All the images resurfaced in front of me one by one.

Xu Tai lay down again, but he couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning. The starry eyes were hazy, and Xu Tai saw a trace of white light in the sky, pale and weak, just like the overlapping white bones in a dream, lying on the windowsill, Xu Tai muttered in his mouth: cause and effect.

Recently, a new housekeeper came to the house, and arranged a hearty breakfast for Xu Tai, and his mother was busy looking at the stocks, and he would come forward from time to time to tell him, his father is a teacher, and he usually goes to school with Xu Tai, but he didn't have it today, on the contrary, he went out very early today. Born here, except for life, no one will take into account Xu Tai's thoughts, Xu Tai watched being "kicked out", standing at the door of the house and waiting for his own shuttle bus not far away.

As soon as he went out, Xu Tai tightened his sleeves, his neck shrunk under his clothes, and the exhaled heat fluttered in the air, Xu Tai continued to walk a few steps, the heat did not dissipate, and it became the face of a little girl on Xu Tai's back, his facial features were distorted, and his two eyes were wide, as if they were empty shells without eyeballs, and he was about to stretch out her hands like demons, but as soon as Xu Tai turned around, they all dispersed.

Xu Tai was still unaware, what attracted him was a few flying birds hovering overhead, he despised these babbling birds with an angry eye, and complained in a low voice: "I saw these dirty things in the morning, do you really think my life is not bitter enough?" Xu Tai smiled proudly, and crossed his hands on his waist: "Let you quarrel with Uncle Ben again, dare to come next time, you look good." ”

At this moment, Seo Tae heard movement in the house, it was his mother on the phone, and curiosity drove him to crouch in front of the door that showed a gap. Xu Tai was lying on the door, through the crack in the door, he saw his mother talking to someone anxiously, with a few sighs in his mouth from time to time, and his voice suddenly became soft. He opened his eyes wide and paused, and saw a ghost behind his mother, and followed his mother until that moment, when his mother came to the dresser and began to dress up in front of the mirror, the strange shadow behind him became clearer and clearer, due to the reflection of light, Xu Tai saw clearly, it was a little girl, with green fangs, * still overflowing on her head, and then bursting out of white fat worms, sucking her * very enjoyingly. But his mother didn't see anything, she was still talking on the phone, applying foundation, and with a hint of sadness, but there was no sadness on her face. But Xu Tai didn't pay attention to this, he paid attention to this female ghost.

Suddenly, the little girl turned around, no, she only turned her head, Xu Tai covered her mouth with her hand to prevent screaming, her head could be rotated three hundred and sixty degrees, as if she was still very happy. The little girl saw Seo Tae, smiled, and disappeared. Xu Tai breathed a sigh of relief, but unexpectedly, the little girl jumped out of front of Xu Tai's eyes through the crack in the door. Xu Tai let out an "ah" like the crows just now, and was heard by her mother who was inside, and she broke the glass bottle with a poof.

"Bang", the mother opened the door, Xu Tai was frightened to the ground, before he came back to his senses, seeing that his mother didn't say a word, his mother still had a trace of gloom on her face at first, and she could even swallow the whole Xu Tai at that time, Xu Tai trembled and shouted: "That, Mom, I'm ...... I...... I ......" I don't know how many times I said in a row, but I still didn't explain it, Xu Tai's brain suddenly became rusty, thinking that no matter how bad things were done back then, there were always countless excuses in the thesaurus, what happened today. Later, it was as if the mother had changed in a second. With a face full of forgiveness, he smiled: "Why hasn't Steward Zhao come yet?" But it's okay, I'm just about to go to you and ask the teacher for leave, we have something to do today." ”

"What, you're not mistaken, are you?help me ask for leave?" For many years, Xu Tai's most dreamed of the word "leave". Today is a hundred years, oh no, it is a once-in-a-millennium opportunity.

Help Xu Tai ask for leave, Xu Tai is excited on the one hand, his face is about to flow down, on the other hand, he is puzzled and puzzled, what is a good day today, my mother will help me ask for leave, at this time Xu Tai even forgot about what happened just now.

On the way, the mother just didn't want to tell Xu Tai what happened, just sat silently, you know, the more you don't say, the more curious Xu Tai is, curiosity kills the cat, Xu Tai has thought about things all the way up.

As soon as he got out of the car, everything was already clear at a glance, Xu Tai had already heard the sound of the funeral team playing in the distance, walking in the center of the villas on both sides, and the two sides were plastered with "no taboos", Xu Tai felt for the first time how happy the dead were - no need to go to school......

At the end, in the last villa, it seems so inconspicuous, but after staying for a long time, you will feel a little desolate, a little lonely, and you don't feel that it makes people's hair stand up.

Walking in, oh, the scene inside is really spectacular, crying like a gathering together, crying by the coffin, while patting the wooden board while crying bitterly, their eyes are more swollen than rabbits, there are also small crying, hiding in the corner and crying by themselves, but in Xu Tai's opinion, no one really feels heartache for the dead. It was the first time Xu Tai had seen so many people so sad, he didn't know why these people were crying, but such an atmosphere made Xu Tai very depressed and uncomfortable.

In fact, what attracted Xu Tai the most was the photo above the main hall, but the person on it was five or six years older than Xu Tai, almost seventeen or eighteen years old, how bright the smile was, but unfortunately it could only be placed on the photo forever, the more Xu Tai looked at it, the more strange it became, and he pulled his mother who was babbling next to him, "Have I seen this person, it's so familiar!" Mother smiled, this is your father's distant relative, I haven't seen it, how can you see it?

Dreaming, yes, in a dream, it was this person, she was also a white skeleton erected on the snowy mountain, but Xu Tai clearly saw the appearance of her soul, a wisp of sadness, all white clothes, if it weren't for her long black hair on the vast snow, there would be no trace of a wandering soul figure on the picture. Thinking of this, Xu Tai broke out in a cold sweat and held his mother tightly, but in order not to make a fool of himself in front of the public, he looked very calm, like a little adult, afraid of this deceased of the same age, and the silent corpse.

Xu Tai's mind today was completely ruined at this moment, he no longer felt how magnificent it was, his cold sweat flowed down unconsciously, and gusts of yin wind came to sting his body, as if he was wearing a short-sleeved shirt in the cold winter, he pulled his mother's hand tighter and tighter, eager to pull her hand down, he shivered coldly, at this time a hand stretched out to him, his nails were long and pointy, and his hands were covered with blood as if they were painted with paint, Xu Tai seemed to see the maggots pounce on him this morning, wanting to eat his brain and even his entire body, the hand rubbed back and forth on Xu Tai's face, cold, lifeless, Xu Tai finally woke up, made a counterattack, slapped that hand like a mosquito, that hand did not move, Xu Tai couldn't stand it, no matter how disgusting it was, Xu Tai bit it hard.

"What are you doing, are you crazy?" Xu Tai returned to the present and muttered to himself, "Was it all a hallucination just now?"

"What a hallucination, I think you're crazy, biting me like a dog!"
