Lin Xuan nodded blankly, then walked up the ladder leading to the small house in a daze...

...

"Teacher Lin Xuan, your readers always say that your writing is so realistic, as if they have actually been there!"

On camera, as the host asked this question, Lin Xuan smiled and joked, "It's not impossible. Alice can dream of Wonderland, so maybe I can have a ghost world too, haha."

"As always, Mr. Lin Xuan loves to joke around. Now, let's get to the main topic of this press conference."

As soon as the host finished speaking, the curtain behind them suddenly fell, revealing a huge painting, the size of an entire exhibition hall, which drew gasps of amazement from the audience.

The magnificent, crimson masterpiece vividly depicted the world from Lin Xuan's novel, especially the red moon in the sky and the small house in mid-air, which were particularly lifelike and vibrant, just like...

It's as if it really existed!

"This painting is a continuation of 'The Weird World,' a scene from my imagination, a real weird world!"

...

After finishing everything, Lin Xuan said goodbye to the staff and returned alone to his house near the eerie amusement park. Even though he had money, he didn't move away. Instead, he found a bigger and more comfortable house near the park and settled down there.

"Da da da".

After confirming that there were no paparazzi around, Lin Xuan went down to the basement and came to an ordinary-looking door. He took a deep breath and pushed the door open forcefully...

"Oh, Brother Lin Xuan is here too! Today we're having hot pot with weird meat. Come on, have a bite!" Butler Xiao Mei quickly brought over a strangely shaped copper pot, inside which were strings of abnormally long meat gleaming with a bluish light.

"Lin Xuan, don't you need to update today?" Ma Bowen greeted him warmly, holding his laptop.

"No need, I'm done writing, take a break." Lin Xuan said, placing a glass of beer on Ma Bowen's desk. "You should rest too, you can write your paper anytime!"

Along the way, many people and ghosts greeted Lin Xuan.

Invite him to dance, sing, play games, and explore escape rooms together—it's a lot of fun!

Lin Xuan smiled and declined their invitation, heading straight to the small house on the Heavenly Ladder.

There, a familiar figure, dressed in the latest fashions, lay asleep on a soft sofa bed, with an oil-paper umbrella painted with the sun, moon, and stars hanging beside her, shielding her from the moonlight.

"Sister Luo."

"I am coming."

Upon hearing this sound, the figure who had been sleeping soundly on the sofa slowly opened his eyes, looked at Lin Xuan with a smile, and asked in a low voice.

"Have you thought it through?"

"Yes, I've thought it over."

The book is finished, the painting is complete, and I have no regrets in this life.

"You need to understand that once you go in, you can never come out again." Su Luo's tone was serious, as if she wanted to persuade him to think it over again.

"It's nothing, I don't regret it."

"Besides, that was originally my destiny."

That is where my heart desires.

Upon hearing this, Su Luo slowly nodded.

The oil-paper umbrella slowly closed, and the red moonlight shone down, forming the shape of a doorway in the small house.

Goodbye, Lin Xuan.

"See you next time, Lord Luo..."

After speaking, Lin Xuan slowly walked into the red moonlight...

Watching Lin Xuan enter the moonlight, Su Luo narrowed his eyes, sighed inwardly, and then a powerful, eerie aura erupted from his body, emanating a faint red light.

Attracted by the crimson moon, the crimson moon moved, and above the small house in the center, a soul detached from the crimson moon and fell into the small house.

Wait until the red light disappears.

Su Luo slowly opened her eyes, and her excessively long black and white hair reappeared, gradually turning back to black as the red light disappeared.

One hundred years ago.

She shattered time and space to rebuild the present world, but her original self was lost in the process of rebuilding and scattered throughout the world.

Therefore, she had to let a part of herself fall into a deep sleep, immersed in the red moon overhead, waiting for the day when she could find what she had lost and reunite with it.

Lin Xuan was a fragment of her soul, the last part of it.

The "Dreamer," in a sense, shares the same thoughts as me, hence my existence.

Looking at his perfectly fitting self, Su Luo played with the oil-paper umbrella in his hand, stepped out of the hut on the ice lotus flowers.

Outside the hut, all the eerie creatures bowed their heads, knelt in submission, and called out the name of their master.

Lord of the Uncanny!

Su Luo, the Goddess of the Luo River!

Looking at the post-apocalyptic humans, who were also kneeling, and shouting the name of Lord Luo!

This time, she's truly back!

By day, they belong to the outside world; by night, they rule!

Humans, the bizarre, coexist in a world where a new world and an apocalypse coexist!

A world called Sulo!

Bonus Mini-Theater

"Li Brain Flower, isn't this haunted house scary at all?"

"I heard that the scariest place in the eerie amusement park is this haunted house. I heard there really are ghosts inside!"

Li Naohua glanced at Lin Xuan, who had just awakened his abilities, shook his head, and pondered for a moment, "It's alright, I've been there once, it's fine, not scary."

Lin Xuan, who knew the truth: ...Good luck to you guys!

Lin Xuan, who once played in this haunted house in the eerie world, says you guys are too naive!

This haunted house is open to both worlds simultaneously. In other words, those who enter from the bizarre post-apocalyptic side see humans as the monsters they perceive!

The humans who enter from the new world and the eerie beings who enter from the bizarre apocalypse are the eerie beings in the eerie house. Both sides are focused on the truth!

Half an hour later.

"Oh my god, that's terrifying!"

"This is really weird!"

"Aaaaaah! Ah, there really is someone! They look so scary, and they're so different from us! Aaaaaah!"

Li Naohua's classmates: Damn, the NPCs inside are so realistic, they're still running even after their heads have fallen off!

Weird World and Strange Things: This escape room chase is terrifying! Those humans are faster than us, we can't catch them at all!
