please don't wear it

The world I live in is a book, and I am just a character in the book.

For modern people who are accustomed to reading all kinds of online novels and are familiar with concepts such as system travel through different worlds, this may not be difficult to accept.

Even Yi Lian himself was more excited than frightened when he first transmigrated into the book.

But Ren Wudao... This person doesn't even know about mobile phones, and he hasn't read online novels. Most of the stories he can come across are about scholars, witches, fairy princes and princes.

The concept that the world is a novel, or through a book is too distant and strange for him, and it is very difficult to accept.

What's more, Ren Wudao's life is not better because of this.

Perhaps the book "Heaven and Earth No Way" and the plot in the book did give him life, but all the pain and sorrow of Ren Wudao also came from this, from this "fate" that he could not break free no matter how he resisted.

This is why Yi Lianzhen would rather make up a "revelation" than tell him the truth.

He was afraid that Ren Wudao would not be able to accept it, and he didn't want to see it make him sad.

It can be said that Yi Lianzhen told Ren Wudao these things now, mostly out of his own selfishness, hoping that Ren Wudao could give him some comfort in the confusion.

In fact, he had some luck in his heart - Ren Wudao would never blame him for this kind of thing as the two of them walked along the way.

He hoped that Ren Wudao could tell him that everything had nothing to do with him and that he had done nothing wrong.

But Ren Wudao was silent.

He didn't speak.

Yi Lianzhen's throat suddenly became dry, and he swallowed with difficulty, regretting his decision.

But even if he was wrong... the next moment, Yi Lian felt inexplicably wronged again.

Even if he was wrong, Ren Wudao shouldn't ignore him like this.

"Ren Wudao..." He restrained his emotions as much as possible, and called out his name in a low voice.

"I didn't mean to hide it from you," he tried to explain, "I just thought it was too cruel and didn't want to tell you..."

Ren Wudao still didn't look at him, but suddenly opened his mouth.

He sighed silently, and said in a deep voice, "Yi Lianzhen, I don't understand."

Yi Lianzhen immediately asked: "What?"

Only then did Ren Wudao turn his gaze around, his brows were slightly frowned, his eyes were full of deep thought: "I... am a character in a book?"

"A book you've read?" he asked again.

Yi Lian really hesitated for a while, then hummed.

"Your book is called "Heaven and Earth Without Tao," he said slowly and hesitantly, "it's a fantasy novel about cultivating immortals, and you are the main character in it."

"All my experiences are just the plot in that book?" Ren Wudao continued to ask, with no emotion in his tone.

Yi Lian really nodded, and let out a muffled hum.

Ren Wudao paused for a while, and asked in a suffocating silence: "Where is Yuan Fourteen Killing that day?"

"The fate of Tianyuan Fourteen Kills," he said bluntly, "is it also a plot?"

Yi Lian really had a hard time saying it: "It's... the setting of the novel."

"Why?" Ren Wudao asked softly.

"I don't know either," Yi Lian shook her head uncertainly when she was asked in fear and confusion, "The author wrote this, maybe it was to make the plot develop better, or maybe it was more attractive... ..."

"I don't know." Finally he said dejectedly.

There is no need for any reason to set the tragic experience of the protagonist in fantasy novels.

In many novels without CP, the protagonist is a lonely person.Ren Wudao's fate will not affect the readers, everyone just needs to see that he can become stronger step by step and crush everyone.

What's more, such a fate is indeed the reason for Ren Wudao to become stronger and kill gods in the novel, giving him a steady stream of motivation to move forward.

Ren Wudao is the only one who really needs to bear the pain.

And until the end of the story, he was trapped in the book, exhausted all his strength, exhausted in the endless void.

As Yi Lianzhen told him, he is just a character in a book, everything is arranged, no matter how hard he tries, he can't break free, he can only obey the plot and the arrangement of fate.

Even the world he is in itself is just a created nothingness, it is words, it is fantasy... Even for Ren Wudao, this is a field that cannot be contemplated further.

He leaned against the back of the chair quietly, his face was calm, and even his breath didn't fluctuate.

Yi Lian pursed her lips, nervous and sad.

"I'm sorry," he whispered, "I'm sorry too, but that's how it is."

He wanted to hug Ren Wudao, but hesitated before getting up.

"Don't pay too much attention," he looked at Ren Wudao seriously, trying to comfort him, "The story is over, you have nothing to do with those plots in the future..."

"What about you?" Ren Wudao suddenly raised his head and asked him.

Yi Lian was really stunned: "What?"

"The world I live in... The book should be the first book you came here." Ren Wudao stared at him closely, his eyes seemed to be bleeding, "Why did you come to find me?"

He is waiting for an answer.

Yi Lian looked at him blankly.

Then he realized that Ren Wudao might have made a mistake.

Ren Wudao thought he came here on his own initiative.

In Ren Wudao's thinking, since Yi Lian really knows that these worlds are the worlds in the book, then he should also know the way to get to these worlds.

It is even said that Yi Lianzhen may have come here for some specific purpose... Then what is the situation between him and Yi Lianzhen now?

Yi Lian really knew from the very beginning that he was just... a character in a book, so how did he see him?

Ren Wudao dare not even think about it.

He really loves this short-haired young man in front of him who is a little different from others, so much so that he can't bear the slightest bit of doubt and disappointment.

But it's not Yi Lianzhen's fault, after all, Yi Lianzhen told him earlier that he was hiding something from him... "I don't know," Yi Lianzhen was a little nervous, but his words were open enough, "I don't know either." Know why I can wear it in."

"I didn't come here specifically to find you. I didn't lie to you about that, just like I said before." He said.

"I don't know why I got into your book, maybe it's just a coincidence? I was in my world at that time, and I was going to sleep..."

The annoyance in Ren Wudao's heart suddenly disappeared in large areas, and became bright and spacious like sunlight.

He couldn't help showing a smile, as if "the world is just a book" and "I'm just a character in the book" are not so important.

"I'm in my world, just an ordinary student, I just like to read novels." Yi Lianzhen continued, "I really like the world and characters in the book, but I didn't expect that one day I would transmigrate into it... "

"At the beginning, I was a little uncomfortable, but it's okay after a long time..."

"...I thought I wouldn't cause any bad effects if I wore it, and I even thought I could make everyone's lives better..."

"But now," Yi Lianzhen pursed her lower lip, and said to Ren Wudao blankly, "I don't understand why it became like this, why Lin Yue would..."

"I really like you all, and I also like these worlds..."

But the world doesn't seem to accept him, and he finally found a sense of belonging here before.But now all the friends I know are left behind, Lin Yue passed away, Shaoer has a new sect...Ren Wudao will definitely not abandon him, but after he knows the truth, will he no longer like himself as much as before? ?

"Will you blame me?" He couldn't help asking Ren Wudao, "I made up a lie before and didn't tell you this. I am not a person who belongs to this world, but an outsider."

Ren Wudao slightly raised the corners of his lips, and smiled at him gently: "What does it matter?"

"Ah?" Yi Lian opened her eyes wide in confusion.

Is it okay?

"But," he said halfway, and he didn't know how to continue, "but I lied to you before..."

"I also killed Lin Yue," he said, "If I hadn't come here, he would be the protagonist of this world."

Ren Wudao sighed for a long time, and hugged him into his arms: "But it's not just Lin Yue, but also me, I also met you."

Yi Lian raised her head from his arms in confusion and looked at him.

"Do you remember what I was doing when you first met me?" Ren Wudao looked into the distance and recalled.

"You..." Yi Lian really thought about it, "When we met for the first time, you ignored me and left me directly."

"No," he added, "you called me 'mortal'."

"..." Ren Wudao was silent for a while, "Go ahead."

"Going forward?" Yi Lianzhen repeated.

Have they met before?

"You didn't see me at that time," Ren Wudao said, "but I heard your voice—I was sleeping at that time."

Yi Lianzhen: "You mean the cocoon?"

He remembered, and it was true.

When he transmigrated into "Heaven and Earth Without Dao", the world was empty, but apart from him, Ren Wudao was also there.

After 800 years of struggle, at the end of "Heaven and Earth Wudao", Ren Wudao finally gave up.

He chose to sleep forever in the void.

"If there is no accident," Ren Wudao's voice could not hear sorrow or happiness, "my vitality will also weaken with time, until I die slowly at the end."

"But that day," he squeezed a smile, "I heard you kicking me outside."

"I didn't expect that I would wake you up either." Yi Lian said with complicated feelings.

Ren Wudao: "Fortunately, you woke me up."

If he is really just the protagonist of a novel, then the endless void is his ending and doom, and he will despair forever in such dead silence, truly heading towards the end of the story and life.

But Yi Lian really came to that void and woke him up.

At the beginning, he still adhered to the original code of conduct, not wanting to bring trouble and disaster to Yi Lianzhen.

But soon he discovered that this young man was not afraid of these things.

Yi Lian was really the change he had finally waited for after 800 years of hard work. She was the one who ran over on his own initiative, grabbed his hand and walked forward, leading him away from that dead land step by step.

"I used to wonder why you are so special." Ren Wudao put his chin on Yi Lianzhen's shoulder, "But if everything is just a book, it is not difficult to explain, after all, you are from a book. outsiders."

He chuckled softly: "The world you live in is also amazing, very different from the world I've seen."

"Are you...don't hold any resentment?" Yi Lian asked really.

"Resentment for what?" Ren Wudao asked back, "Hate the so-called fate, hate that I'm just a character in a book?"

Yi Lian nodded.

Even if Ren Wudao could forgive his lies, the truth of everything is a hundred times and a thousand times more extreme than his lies.

Ren Wudao said: "I hate."

Yi Lianzhen: "Then you..."

"If I knew about this before," Ren Wudao's tone subconsciously turned cold, "I will definitely resent you."

"I can't accept the fate imposed on me by others, and I don't want to live according to other people's wishes. Why should I bear all this?"

"No matter what, I will try to change, and use all the price I can pay in exchange for a glimmer of life."

He slowed down his tone again, and exhaled softly: "But didn't I meet you?"

"You are no longer in the plot of that book," Yi Lianzhen curled her lips, "The story is over."

Ren Wudao gave a low hum: "We are indeed sorry for Lin Yue, but you must know that it is not your fault."

Yi Lian felt a little sad again.

"It's nothing." Ren Wudao kissed him, and said slowly, "I just hope you can know that what you bring is not tragedy and bad luck, these are not things you need to bear."

"What you've brought about is change, some good, some not so good, but countless people have benefited from it."

"Xue Tianding died early, Qin Ying's world doesn't know how many people died because of it; Shi Yexin no longer needs to fight hard and hard with Xie; Xu Baisha and the others can break through the extreme realm of martial arts several years earlier."

"Even in Lin Yue's world, there are still Shao'er and others," Ren Wudao analyzed carefully for him, "You told me before that you don't remember Shao'er. If you didn't show up, Shao'er My son may just be a disciple of San Sweep who can't speak for the rest of his life."

"I..." Yi Lian was really moved, her voice trembling slightly, "I never thought about this before."

"At that time, I always felt that these had nothing to do with me." He said, "After all, to me at that time, they were all just plots in the book."

It may be until now that he really stepped out of the position of a bystander, and unexpectedly discovered that he is also a member of this world.

"Everything is related to you," Ren Wudao grabbed him tightly, "Maybe we will leave this world soon, but there is still me."

He laughed lowly like a fool: "No matter where you go, you always take mine with you."

A few days later, after confirming that Shao'er was doing well in the new sect, they packed up their things and prepared to leave this world.

Although he knew that he was in the book, after discussing with Yi Lianzhen, Ren Wudao still had no clue about the golden eyes.

The two decided to continue walking according to the previous plan, to see if they could find "the desert at the end of the story".

Although he knew he would not see anything, but before Ren Wudao opened the "door", Yi Lianzhen still looked around.

"Will Yexin not follow us this time?" He asked uncomfortably.

Shi Yexin was elusive, and after killing Zhang Huaimin, he never appeared in front of the two of them again. Instead, some news related to him came out from other places.

She was followed by Shi Yexin twice before, so Yi Lian really cared a little bit.

"No," Ren Wudao said easily, "This world is uncertain and in chaos, which is Shi Yexin's favorite situation. He will stay here for a while."

"As for the future, he can open the 'door' himself, there is no need to join us in the fun."

"That's good," Yi Lian really felt relieved, "If you don't worry about time and night, you will have less things to take care of—I don't know what the next world will be like."

"See what kind of novels you have read." Ren Wudao glanced at him and said leisurely.

"That's not certain." Yi Lian really watched Ren Wudao open the door, and walked in with him, "I've read a lot of novels, haven't I told you some of them these days?"

"There are all kinds of mysteries, what else is there to cultivate immortals?"

He smiled and talked to Ren Wudao while observing the scene of the new world: "This seems to be a piece of Gobi?"

Under the scorching sun, the exposed rocks were weathered into small pieces of coarse sand and gravel, and only a few almost invisible grasses were growing tenaciously on the vast light yellow land.

"The protagonist of the story should be around here." Ren Wudao speculated based on past experience.

"Then there should be a town near here," Yi Lianzhen said while thinking, "This kind of place can't be lived by people, but it might be that the protagonist is here for an adventure...Let me think about whether there is a similar plot."

He calmed down to meditate, while Ren Wudao released his consciousness and explored the people and things around him.

Suddenly, there seemed to be something moving in front of him.

Yi Lian shook Ren Wudao in surprise: "There is someone!"

Ren Wudao had already discovered the woman in front of him, and said indifferently, "It's just a mortal."

Yi Lian babbled on so many plots of novels to him, but none of them centered on ordinary people.

And most mortals don't know much about the monks flying in the sky, asking them will not get any effective information.

"But she came towards us." Yi Lianzhen said.

Ren Wudao looked up, and sure enough, the woman was slowly walking towards them from a distance.

Something was not quite right, he frowned slightly, exerting a little coercion, trying to stop her footsteps.

The woman was already an old woman, her hunchbacked figure became even smaller under the coercion, her clothes were also tattered, and her clothes could only cover her body.

She stood in the distance and hesitated for a while, looking up at her neck, as if she was afraid of Ren Wudao.

But then, she still opened her legs and walked towards the two of them in small steps.

"It's not accidental," Yi Lian hesitated, "She seems to be purposely coming in our direction... as if she has something to do with us."

"Let's wait and see what she wants to do."

The author has something to say:

I have to get up early to go to the hospital tomorrow, but I don’t have any tonight, so I’ll try to write more

Maybe I have to pull four wisdom teeth, I'm afraid when I think about it...
