The strange story of Huai'an Inn

Chong Wu flew into smoke in front of Chong Liu's eyes, pieces of crystal dust were swept by Dao Qi and flew into a blue storm.But his blocking didn't stop the burst of Dao Qi from swallowing Chong Liu and Zhu Helan together, and it couldn't stop the terrifying filthy explosion created by the collision of foul Qi and Dao Qi from sweeping in all directions in an instant.

Humans and water ghosts were wiped out by the explosion in an instant, not even dust remained, and the entire temple was turned into smoke and dust in an instant.The drum and the locust tree were severely injured respectively. The drum surface of the former was ruptured and bleeding, while the body of the latter was torn and a large number of crowded internal organs were torn out, and a sharp roar came from nowhere.

At the same time, the locust tree far away in Tianliang City suddenly began to shake violently, and blood continued to ooze from the bark.Master Liao and Xiao Shun looked at the scene in horror, knowing that something must have happened to Zhu Helan.

"Too bad... the incarnation of the locust tree died, and the trauma spread to the main body." Master Liao murmured, "The barrier of Tianliang City can't be protected either."

Even if Yuan Tang had a filth explosion, it probably wouldn't be on such a scale.The purest and abundant Dao Qi collided with the same pure and vast foul air, tearing the space forcefully into a bloody wound.This wound is too deep, cutting not just one space, but countless space universes overlapping with this world.

Such a result is far more terrifying than opening the door to allow the evil god to invade.Because now the countless universes dominated by dao qi and the universe dominated by filthy qi have penetrated, and there are even infinite universes that have not yet formed and are still chaotic and unimaginable for human beings.Then all the qi became chaotic, the gap was torn bigger and bigger, and finally got out of control, spreading at a speed exceeding the speed of sound approaching the speed of light, extending to the land and to the center of the earth.

As a result, the balance that originally shaped the entire world was completely torn apart.The ground cracked, domes crumbled, and the blazing sun suddenly turned into a deadly death ray, charring the unsuspecting.

This is definitely not the result that Xu Hanke and Mr. Xuanwu could have expected.After all, in their cognition, there are only two universes.One is Tao and the other is filth.

They can't imagine more worlds, and they can't imagine the overlapping of countless invisible worlds. All their self-righteous decisions are based on their limited cognition.

But they didn't even have time to regret it, because they were wiped out the moment the filthy explosion happened.

The end of the world came without warning.Not just this one world, but countless worlds.

Master Liao heard the roar and vibration from the ground, and saw the strange rainbow glow in the daytime sky and the strange mirage floating in the other half of the sky.He calmly told Xiao Shun, "Call everyone into the lobby, and let Zhu Yi out too."

Xiao Shun's eyes were full of panic and panic, "Master Liao, the tall sister said that everything is coming to an end."

Master Liao remained silent, looking at the elongated, scorched figure behind Xiaoshun.

Everyone thought that only Xiao Shun could see the tall sister, but Master Liao could see it too.But he never told anyone, including Zhu Helan.

Just because she didn't want her younger brother to know that she had never left him.After she was nailed to a wooden stake by the alchemists and burned into coke, the remaining consciousness did not dissipate for a long time.She watched Zhu Helan holding her body and weeping silently, and watched the determination and hatred gradually solidify in the eyes of her brother who was left alone by her.She was worried.

But she also knew that if Zhu Helan knew that she was always by his side, he would never be able to get out of the shackles of the mother goddess priest's fate.

It was an accident to be seen by Xiao Shun, she never thought that this child would have a reaction with her.It was her luck that she had someone to talk to in the loneliness where no one could see.

As for Master Liao, he knew who she was and what she wanted a long time ago.

And now, she knew that her brother was gone.

She could feel that her last connection in this world had been cut off.

Bai Lishuang's slender body gradually dissipated like smoke and became transparent.Xiao Shun seemed to sense something, and when he turned around, a clear look appeared in his clear pupils.

"Tall sister..."

She lowered her head, no expression could be seen on her face, which had been burnt to the point where she lost all facial features, but Xiao Shun knew that she was smiling at him.

That was her silent farewell.

Master Liao quietly put his arms around Xiao Shun's shoulder who was crying silently, and sighed softly, "Don't be afraid, no matter what happens, we will all meet again."

............................................................

At the moment of his second death, Chong Liu found that time had become very slow.Slowly enough that he could see every moment when his and Zhu Helan's bodies were disintegrated by Dao Qi.

He realized that he was not willing to accept this outcome.

His life has just begun, Chong Wu's life has just begun.

He and Zhu Helan are just getting started.

His home, his world, everything he loved and loved, will be destroyed.Existence itself has been completely erased, and no one will remember that they ever existed.

Can't take it...he can't take it...

Why should he accept it?

He didn't have to accept such an ending at all.None of this would have happened if he had chosen to return to the book from the very beginning and become an all-knowing and all-powerful god.

Why didn't he choose to be a book?

Yes... because he was afraid.

He was afraid that he would forget who he was and what he wanted...

He is a coward.

And his cowardice destroyed everything.

At that moment, Chong Liu roared from the lungs that no longer existed, his violent anger and unwillingness boiled.He shouted, "I am a book! I am a poor book!"

Suddenly, a figure appeared in his gradually blurred vision.

The figure gradually became clear, wearing a purple robe and a dignified appearance.But it was the dead national teacher Mengku.

Why did you see Mengku Guoshi?

Poor Island...Mengku Guoshi's last dream...was Poor Island.How is this going?

The moment he saw him, a clear understanding appeared on Mengku's face.It was as if he had been looking for an answer all his life, and now he finally found it.

"So it's like this... so this is the meaning of my coming back again and again. This is the meaning of my existence." Mengku smiled on his face, looking at the conch engraved with strange runes in his hand.

"This is the key, the key to open the book of poverty." He murmured.

Chong Liu suddenly understood something.He recalled that memory illusion, and remembered how Mr. Gou Chen used the conch.

So he stretched out his tentacles and tightly wrapped them around Mengku's wrist.

Mengku said to him, "Are you really sure?"

This time, Chong Liu's eyes were extremely calm, just like the sea that has covered the entire planet forever for hundreds of millions of years.There was no doubt or hesitation in his mind anymore.

"I'm sure, I'm a book."

He cut open his chest with two tentacles with spikes, and the other tentacles took Mr. Gou Chen's hand and stuffed the conch into his chest cavity.What flowed from his body was not blood, but an oily, mysterious and chaotic color.

This color stained Mengku Guoshi's hands and quickly spread to his whole body.But he didn't show any signs of panic or fear, instead he showed a gratified and complete smile.

"Thank you."

Then, Mengku disappeared.

Everything is gone.

He stood in front of an ancient heavy gate.The door is covered with layers of paleontological fossils, and all the chains have been broken.

He walked forward slowly, with his hands on the door, feeling the hum and vibration from the other side of the door.

"I won't forget," he promised himself, before pushing the door open.

............................................................

Outside the gate of the inn, people were crying and screaming, the sound of explosions, collapses, and even the sound of distant sea water, like a final dance of sound.

In the lobby of the inn, Master Liao looked at the four young people calmly.Xiao Shun and Jiu Lang were sobbing, Fu Zi was trembling in fear, and Zhu Yi had a blank expression on his face.

After Mulberry was killed by Taoist Egg, the control over his mind also disappeared.He didn't understand what happened to him at all, and the whole world was already facing destruction.

The ground trembled violently again, the wood made a crumbling sound of cracking, and dust fell like rain.There was a pungent sulfur smell in the air, and the temperature was unbearably hot, and even began to redden and burn.

Master Liao silently put his hands on the table, palms up.

The other four young people were silent for a while, and slowly covered his hands with their hands.

"If you want, I can send you off in advance. Leave without pain." Master Liao looked everyone in the eye seriously, "Or, we can go through the last journey together."

After a while, Fuzi wiped his eyes abruptly and said, "We can all see such a big thing as the destruction of the world. It would be a great loss to leave early. I will stay."

Xiao Shun also choked and nodded.

Zhu Yi asked softly, "Is it true that no one can stop it?"

Master Liao sighed and shook his head.

After hearing this, Zhu Yi suddenly laughed, "I remember there is a jar of 50-year-old daughter red behind the counter."

As soon as these words came out, both Jiu Lang and Xiao Shun burst into laughter.

The ground shook violently again, this time, the girder broke and the entire inn collapsed.At the last moment, everyone hugged each other tightly, waiting for the darkness to come.

But darkness did not come.

Master Liao blinked and found that he was still standing in the yard.

The locust tree stood in front of him, its branches and leaves were luxuriant, and there was no sign of bleeding at all.

He looked at the sky, and it was still clear and sunny.

what happened?

Time... seems to be rewinding?

When he heard the hurried footsteps, he saw Xiaoshun, Jiulang and Fuzi running out of the lobby, all of them were surprised and uncertain.

Not only them, but everyone in Tianliang City stood still, looking at their surroundings in confusion and uncertainty.

The whole Central Plains, the whole world is like this.

............................................................

Mr. Xuanwu's movements were fixed on the action of taking out the Taoist egg, but he didn't have a chance to take it out.

He dissipated into gas.

One moment he was still standing there, the next moment, he flew apart into countless atoms.

Xu Hanke and Liu Sheng were shocked, but they saw the Taoist egg fell to the ground and was quickly swept away by a translucent tentacle.

A strange human figure with thousands of colors floated in the air, but from that human figure, countless light and floating tentacles emanated, like smoke and mist, illusion and reality, and even hard rocks could not stop them. Extend to the end of the universe.

A dazzling splendor that cannot be described in words.

Zhu Helan hung dizzily near the human figure, but he didn't feel how terrifying the power he exuded was.Instead, he feels a strong sense of familiarity and attraction.

The memory of death was still in front of her eyes, and Zhu Helan suddenly understood what was going on.

The books created by the omniscient and omnipotent God are equally omniscient and omnipotent.It can see the past, present and future of every space in every world.

Endless possibilities are simply unimaginable for humans, but for it, it is just a constantly changing and expanding canvas.

It transcends time.

In order to save everyone, Chong Liu chose to become a book in order to bring him, Chong Wu, and everyone back.

The delicate pain and the sorrow of the loss filled his heart, and he looked up at his Liuer, the light was too dazzling and beautiful, and it was deeply imprinted on his soul.

Crow, who was dying of scars all over his body, looked at the book of poverty in the air, with pure bliss and joy on his face.He raised his blood-stained limbs towards the light, wanting to touch eternity.

Poor Extreme Book looked down at Xu Hanke who was prostrate on the ground stunned, and said three words softly, "Xu Chong miasma."

After speaking, Xu Hanke suddenly felt a sudden outbreak of numbness under the skin, which was tens of thousands of times worse than before.He began to twitch uncontrollably, scratching his skin vigorously.What flowed out from the place where the nail was torn was not blood, but worms.

Centipedes, ants, cockroaches, maggots...

They began to come out of Xu Hanke's ears, eyes, and nose continuously, blocking his throat and preventing him from screaming.They gnawed at his internal organs, tore at his intestines and blood vessels, and denied his nerves.Everyone says that hacking into pieces is the most terrible and painful punishment in the world, but they don't know that the most terrible torture is before the worms break out.

Liu Sheng hugged him tightly, kept calling his name sternly, tears streaming down his face.Those bugs came out of Xu Hanke's body, crawled towards Liu Sheng one after another, and burrowed into his ears, nose and mouth.Xu Hanke's whole body began to swell as if he was inflated with air, and his originally delicate and elegant facial features were distorted and deformed.

Liu Sheng knelt on the ground and begged like a poor book, "Please spare him! Let me replace him! I will replace him!"

But Poor Extreme Book said calmly, "This is his original destiny."

Finally, with a weird sound like a water polo bursting, Xu Hanke's body exploded.Tens of thousands of poisonous insects spewed out like a dense tide, instantly engulfing Liu Sheng who refused to let go of Xu Hanke.

Amidst the screams, the Poor Book slowly turned its gaze to Crow.

"The Book of Poorness!" Crow called him frantically, "Please open the door! Please welcome the gods to come! This is our destiny, the destiny of our whole life!"

"I told you, destiny doesn't exist." The tone of Poor Extreme Book has no emotion, no hatred or disgust, just like a reader who has no emotion, "every choice made by everyone , will lead to thousands of different futures. No single possibility is certain. But, you won't understand."

After he finished speaking, several tentacles suddenly danced and slashed down in the air like long whips.

A strange rift formed.

This rift is different from the out-of-control space-time rift before, more like a doctor cutting a slit precisely with a sharp knife.

Behind that gap, there was a void of darkness.

Unlike the darkness that lacks light, this darkness is a more primitive nothingness.

"The Unholy God universe you yearn for is here." Qiongji Zhishu said, "Go and see for yourself."

Crow's smile froze slightly on his face, looking at the gap suspended in the air, his crazy eyes that had always been moving forward showed a trace of uncertainty for the first time.

But he still dragged his distorted body closer to the gap.

Just as he was hesitating, something suddenly spurted out from behind the gap.Some silky, greasy goo, containing thousands of silky creatures curled up in a gloom, caught Raven.

Just before being pulled into the gap, the raven let out a horrible and tragic howl of pain.

And the Tiangu people around, seeing this scene, were already frightened and froze, not daring to move.They were afraid that the unpredictable new god would throw them all into the gap together.

But the gap disappeared.

A moment of silence.

Chong Wu took a step forward first, and tentatively called out, "Xiao Liu?"

The book suspended in the air was silent for a moment, then suddenly raised a tentacle and landed gently on Chong Wu's shoulder.

Suddenly, all the scars on Chong Wu's body disappeared, as if they had never appeared before.

Not only him, but everyone, even the water ghost, the decayed and distorted parts of their bodies were rapidly recovering.Outside the main hall, the branches and leaves of the locust tree are luxuriant, and the red flowers are all over the sky, and Hydera's nine huge heads are gradually retracting into the depths of the sea in the sky.

The statue of Cthulhu squatted in place, as if it had never moved.The internal injuries of Song Mingzi and Daoist Qi Yao have also healed.

Song Mingzi whispered, "Little Six..."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly found that the scenery in front of him had changed.

He was no longer in the eerie temple of Poor Isle, but standing on the soft white sand, with waves rushing to his feet.

He turned his head and saw Daoist Qi Yao standing beside him with a sword behind his back, his expression was a little dazed.

The two looked at each other and frowned at the same time.

"Why are we here?" Matsuko asked looking around.

Daoist Qi Yao shook his head, "I just remember that we are going to sea to find Qiongji Island."

"Yeah, where is this place? Why can't I remember how we got here?"

Daoist Qi Yao thought about it, and a hint of understanding appeared on his face.

"Master Mengku...it was the same back then." Daoist Qi Yao murmured, looking at his junior brother, "I think... we have probably found it."

............................................................

All disappeared.

Song Mingzi, Qi Yao, Chong Wu, Tian Gu Ren, Water Ghost...

Even the locust tree is gone.

In the empty hall, only Zhu Helan was left, looking at the bright and beautiful figure who was so close but untouchable.

He wanted to say something, but his throat was dry and he couldn't say anything.

Can he still call him Liu'er?

Fear filled his heart, almost suffocating him.

Suddenly, thousands of soft and gorgeous tentacles slowly closed together, enclosing him and the book like a cocoon.The dazzling figure gradually approached, approached... and finally the light faded, revealing his familiar face.

Chong Liu doesn't seem to have changed, but it seems to be a little different.

He became...perfect.

Not just visual perfection, but a kind of expanse and fullness emanating from the source.But at the same time, those clear and bright eyes were vaguely the same as before.

Chong Liu stood in front of him, with a soft smile on his lips.He raised his hand and gently touched Zhu Helan's cheek.

"Boss, you don't want me just because I'm a book, do you?"

The next moment, Zhu Helan hugged his Chong Liu tightly into his arms.He used all his strength to hug the still familiar body, like grabbing a life-saving piece of driftwood.

"Don't go." Zhu Helan asked hoarsely from his chest, "Stay."

"Well, I won't go. I won't go in the future. Wherever you go, I will go with you." Chong Liu rested his head on Zhu Helan's shoulder, closed his eyes calmly and soothingly, his lips curled up, and he Added a sentence: "However, three media and six hires are unavoidable."

Zhu Helan laughed, but also shed tears at the same time.He straightened his body, held Chong Liu's face with both hands, and looked at each other, as if he could see eternity in each other's eyes.

He kissed Chong Liu's lips, as if engraved with the proof of his previous life.
