after a change of heart

There was a faint light shining ahead, Wang Wuyou and Kasyapa speeded up, and as the distance shortened, the light became stronger and stronger, until the end of the road, Wang Wuyou realized that the light came from the crack of a door. leaked out.

There was a doorknob on the door, but there was no lock, but there was a small hole next to the doorknob, about the size of the ball they got before.

Wang Wuyou stepped forward and put in the black ball that he got from the chessboard before. The ball fell into the small hole, and the doorknob made a click, as if the door had been unlocked.

Can't open it?Wang Wuyou tried hard to pull the doorknob, but found that the door was still locked, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't open it.Twist the doorknob, pull and push, but it won't open.

Is it because there are no clearance keys?Wang Wuyou looked back at the dark passage, and sure enough there were other clearance keys in that room!

"Kasyapa, wait for me here, I'll go back there and look for it."

Kasyapa grabbed him, shook his head at him, then walked forward, put his hand on the doorknob, and pulled it lightly.

"Squeak -----"

The door was easily pulled open.

……

Wang Wuyou looked at his own hand, then at Kasyapa's hand, stepped forward and pulled the door again——it couldn't be pulled, the door seemed to be frozen, and couldn't move a millimeter.

It seems that it is not the reason of the door, but the reason of the people.Kassapa had the right to open the door, but he did not.Wang Wuyou thought that the two goblins could not enter the mysterious passage before, but he and Kasyapa could. In the subsequent customs clearance, he and Kassapa were not treated differently, but they came here and began to change.

Wang Wuyou pressed his temple, puzzled.

Could it be because Kassapa is an undead...?

"hand."

Kassapa pulled his right hand away, Wang Wuyou looked down, it turned out that he had pinched several red marks on his left wrist at some point, compared with the surrounding white skin, it was particularly shocking.

Wang Wuyou shook his head indifferently, took his hand away from Kasyapa's hand, cast his gaze behind a bright and splendid door, and tentatively walked towards the door.

Will this checkpoint allow me to enter?

Stepping over the threshold with one foot, Wang Wuyou paused slightly, looked at the white jade-like stairs, and stepped in with the other foot.

fine.Judging by the scene here, they should have come out of the tunnel.Wang Wuyou breathed a sigh of relief, before he turned his head to look at Kasyapa, there was a person standing beside him.

Kasyapa looked down at his side face, his expression was calm and unwavering, only a little expectation was revealed in his eyes.He touched his healed shoulder blade with his backhand. From the seams of the broken clothes, he could see that there were several flat white scar-like marks on his healed skin, which split the white feather-like mark on his shoulder into several halves.

He looked up at the white stairs all the way into the clouds, pursed his lips, and his pure eyes deepened slightly.

The white jade-like stairs lead to the unreachable sky step by step, with no end in sight, hidden in the clouds and mist.But above the clouds and mist, Wang Wuyou blinked, a little unbelievable.

Is that a pure white palace?

Wang Wuyou turned his head, the door had been closed with a bang, and there was only one way in front of them - the ladder.

Wang Wuyou took a deep breath, and was ready to climb the stairs until his legs were weak, but just as he took a step, he realized something was wrong.

His steps were heavy, as if he had two sandbags tied to his legs.

Gritting his teeth, he reluctantly went up another step, his calf trembled, and he almost fell off.Kasyapa hugged him from behind and touched his leg suspiciously.

Wang Wuyou understands that this is the ultimate test. Although they don't know what good things are waiting for them above, this level is indeed a test of real materials, and the previous levels can still be passed with luck and intelligence But this one is completely a test of willpower and physical strength!

Every step is under tremendous pressure, which can be described as difficult, and it is a test of physical strength; the unreachable end is a test of willpower.

Wang Wuyou broke away from Kasyapa's hand and pushed up with difficulty.He lacked nothing like willpower!

Physical strength, he has... His legs seemed to be stuck in glue, and when he lifted his feet with all his strength, Wang Wuyou immediately lost his balance and fell back, falling into the arms of Kassapa behind him again.

Kasyapa tilted his head, looked down at Wang Wuyou's painful expression, and asked doubtfully, "Wuyou, are you tired?"

Wang Wuyou covered his face, his lips trembled a little, the few steps just now had exhausted almost all his strength, and now his body was as soft as overcooked noodles, and he couldn't lift it up at all.

"Aren't you tired?" he asked breathlessly.

Not tired?

tired?

?

Wang Wuyou suddenly realized, could it be that he is the only one who wants to block this level, and is Kasyapa allowed to enter?So when Kassapa opened the door, even if he entered, he would be put under extra pressure.

He looked up at Kasyapa's expression, he didn't seem to be under pressure at all, and his breath was not disturbed at all!

Kasyapa raised his hand and touched Wang Wuyou's red cheeks, raised his hand to hug him as a princess, smiled at him, and said, "Worriless, I will hold you."

Then he carried Wang Wuyou, a man who was close to 1.7 meters nine, and walked up easily. Before Wang Wuyou could react, Kasyapa had already walked up more than ten steps, his face not red and not panting.

The hand resting on the man's chest was withdrawn silently, obviously trying to climb up and probably not even half of it, and it was a waste of time, it would be better to stay in the arms of this man who is destined to be loved by heaven.

Go out and rely on friends.Wang Wuyou thought, he and Kasyapa should be regarded as friends.

With such a long staircase, Wang Wuyou felt as if he was approaching the floating white palace in less than half an hour.

Wang Wuyou was even more sure that this level would not be difficult for Kasyapa at all.

Looking down, it was already shrouded in clouds and mist, but looking up, he could only see the gate of the palace less than a hundred feet away. Wang Wuyou took a deep breath, and suddenly he felt dizzy. The whole world is like a kaleidoscope, spinning from slow to fast.

As soon as his eyes were closed, Wang Wuyou slowed down a little in the darkness, and when he opened his eyes again, the scene in front of him suddenly changed.

He was startled, and didn't react for a moment.

This is?

"Sorry, we've done our best."

A voice of apology and sympathy came over, the smell of disinfectant filled his nostrils, Wang Wuyou turned his head to look blankly, the snow-white walls reflected the light, and there were nurses and doctors in white clothes coming and going around. The nurse gave him a few sympathetic glances as she passed him.

"Oh, what a pity. Such a young mother went."

"You don't know? His mother has a congenital heart disease. Sooner or later... What's worse is that this heart disease is inherited, so this child also has a heart problem. I guess... let's not talk about it, he will look at it."

The nurse's voice dropped, and her figure disappeared into the elevator.

Wang Wuyou turned his head with a stiff neck, and looked at the man who was walking towards him.

"Worriless..." The man hugged him, kneeling on the ground half-kneeling, his voice suppressed and choked, "I'm sorry... Wuyou, Dad is sorry for you."

Wang Wuyou felt cold all over his body, and his bright black eyes gradually lost their light. He raised his hand and stroked the man's hair, and said softly, "Dad... Mom, she's dead, right?"

Suddenly there was some dampness on the neck, and the man's tears fell into his collar drop by drop, which made him ache.

"Wuyou, I only have you, you have to live well. Dad can't keep your mother," the man raised his head, holding his face, his red eyes were full of determination, "Dad must keep you, no matter what method, Dad It will definitely keep you alive."

Wang Wuyou stretched out his hand and wiped the tears on the man's face with the back of his hand.

Then he paused, his eyes focused on his hands.This is a child's hand, pale, thin, bloodless, the back of the hand is clean, and the tiny blue blood vessels are clearly visible.

Wang Wuyou touched his chest slowly, and felt it carefully for a long time before he felt the light and slow heartbeat, as if every beat exhausted all the energy he had accumulated. Jumping so hard.

This is his body, the body that was so weak that he would die if he didn't pay attention when he was young.

He went back to when he was six years old.

Back to the day my mother died.

Wang Wuyou was a little at a loss, he clearly remembered that one moment he was still climbing the ladder with Kasyapa, and the next moment he went back to the past in dizziness.Everything around is unbelievably real, not like an illusion at all.

The person holding him was real, so real that Wang Wuyou couldn't tell himself that all this was false, and his surroundings were just the legendary illusion.

The young child lowered his head feebly and buried his face in his father's chest, but his eyes were complicated like a child's.

If this is true, is everything before him a fantasy or did it really happen?

No, it won't be a fantasy.How could a six-year-old child imagine such a clear and complete 14-year life, and his current thinking is not like what a child should have, right?

If it happened in real, does it mean that he encountered the same rebirth as in the novel?

He was born again?Does such a fantasy really exist?

Wang Wuyou's eyes are unpredictable. Since there are even goblins, undead, and even soul projections, it is not surprising that they can be reborn.

"Worriless." The man let go of him, pulled him into the corridor, and stopped at the door of the operating room.

He squatted down, looked at Wang Wuyou seriously, and asked, "Do you want to see mom? Do you want to see mom for the last time?"

Wang Wuyou met his eyes. There was not a trace of wrinkle on his young father's face, but his eyes were old and sad, just like the last time he saw his father before he disappeared when he was 17 years old.

No matter how much time has passed since then, that deep, old and meaningful look is clearly imprinted in his mind. Whenever he thinks of his missing father, that look will appear in front of his eyes.

"Dad..." he said in a daze, "where have you been?"

The man was stunned, he came to his senses, touched his cheek gently, and murmured: "Am I crazy? You are still so young, how can I let you see it."

"Worriless, good boy. Mom is asleep, we won't bother her anymore, we'll go home and wait for her."

Wang Wuyou was hugged by the man and walked away from the operating room step by step.He leaned his face on the man's shoulder, looked back, and could only see the doctors and nurses pushing out a cart from the operating room. The cart was covered with a layer of white cloth, so white that there was no color at all.

Wang Wuyou knew that under the white cloth was his dead mother.

At the moment when he and the man entered the elevator, he saw a nurse catching up and pulled his father out of the elevator with a full face of excitement.

"Mr. Wang, your wife, your wife is not dead yet! She is breathing and has been pushed into the operating room for emergency surgery!"

The man looked at him in astonishment, but couldn't say a word for a while.

Wang Wuyou's heart sank slowly, he forcefully pulled away the man's hand, and jumped to the ground, his heart beat violently several times, his throat seemed to be strangled by an iron fist, it was difficult to breathe, his eyes began to darken, Everything around becomes blurred.

Wang Wuyou curled up on the ground in pain, he knew this was a sign that he would get sick when he was too excited, relax... relax, calm down, calm down.

"Worriless, how are you? How are you?"

The man seemed to be hit in the air, and when he reacted, he saw his child fell to the ground, struggling in pain. He quickly leaned over to look at Wang Wuyou, not daring to move him, but hurriedly took out two pills from his pocket , Feed it into his mouth, "Worriless, it's okay, take it easy. Take the medicine... Open your mouth and take the medicine."

Wang Wuyou half-opened his eyes, raised his head, and his vision had begun to become clearer. He took the medicine from the man's hand, but did not put it in his mouth, but looked straight at the nurse.

"My mother is alive, isn't she?"

The nurse nodded firmly, "Don't worry, kid, your mother is alive, she is not dead."

Unexpectedly, the thin boy didn't feel happy because of this, instead his eyes became sadder, empty and indifferent, without a gleam of light.

"I hope that my father is not missing, and I hope that he is by my side. So even if you hear the news of my mother's death, you will only be with me. I hope that my mother is not dead, but can come back to life, so even if she has been sentenced to death, she is still alive." They would suddenly resume breathing and be healed again."

Wang Wuyou looked deeply at the man's face, and said word by word, "I am not reborn, this is the illusion that traps me."
