Chapter 35
Feifei and the others were swept into a cave with a circular exit on top. It was suppressed by a formation and only a faint light could be seen.
Feifei looked at the inner wall. She walked to Du Jiajia and warned, "Gu Yuan, be careful. Something might be locked up here."
Du Jiajia: "What kind of monster is this again?"
Feifei: "I don't know. Be careful."
In the darkness, Si sensed the breath of a living person and slowly stood up. It grew out, and it had animal horns on its head, like deer antlers.
Du Jiajia: "What, what is this?!"
Gu Yuan: "The Si Beast likes to eat living flesh and swallows the air of sadness. It will keep its food frightened before eating. It likes the fear and terror in people, which is the music of its eating."
Du Jiajia: "What a perverted monster."
Feifei: "The book is well-recited, but this beast has developed other abilities that are different from ordinary beasts."
The beast had become impatient, and it showed no sign of being satisfied with the food, without any screaming or panic.
It roared at them, Du Jiajia, and started attacking them.
The beast roared, and a fishy smell hit Du Jiajia's face. She clenched her teeth tightly and tried hard not to scream. The next second, it rushed towards the few people.
Feifei protected Du Jiajia in front, and the beast rushed left and right. Its body was too huge, and Feifei had to dodge its collision in a somewhat embarrassed manner.
She wanted to summon the most lethal vines to stop them, but she found that the soil here also had a formation, and her vines could not come out from the ground. Her heart sank for a moment.
Gu Yuan's power is already stronger than Feifei's. She can already summon the wind, but if the wind blade is swung out, casualties are inevitable.
Gu Yuan: "What should I do?"
Feifei: "Wait, the adults must have made arrangements."
Gu Yuan: "Let's work together to kill it."
Feifei: "You can't commit murder."
Gu Yuan had lost her patience. She no longer thought about subduing the beast, but about killing it, and her attack became even more brutal.
Si Beast didn't know why his food suddenly became so powerful. There were more and more wounds on his body, and blood was flowing down his scales. He roared in pain.
In a moment of desperation, the beast suddenly raised its antennae, which trembled as a signal for help from its master. At this moment, it saw a fragment of memory.
Master, do you want it to pass this memory to them? Isn't this its own food?
It shook its head and cried a few times. White light descended from above. The wounds on its body no longer bled and were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Gu Yuan looked at the white light above, with a hint of hatred in his eyes. The beast took advantage of the moment when Gu Yuan was distracted, and suddenly shook its head, picked up Gu Yuan with brute force, and threw him into the air.
An invisible force enveloped Gu Yuan, freezing her in mid-air, unable to move.
"Gu Yuan." Feifei went up to save her, but just after taking a few steps, the ground suddenly lit up, and the formation was activated at this time.
Sishou seized the opportunity and used his strength to immobilize Feifei. Du Jiajia, who was standing beside him, was also affected by this force and froze in place.
Immediately afterwards, the memory that flashed through Si Beast's mind flooded into the consciousness of the three people like a tide.
They returned to Gu Yuan's neighborhood and watched "Du Jiajia" and "Gu Yuan" carrying beer home.
Du Jiajia: "What's going on?"
She followed them and found that they were really locked outside the door just like that day. "Du Jiajia" was tired of waiting and sat on the beer box, and "Gu Yuan" was still knocking on the door.
Du Jiajia stepped forward and patted "Gu Yuan" on the shoulder, and found that her hand had actually passed through. She touched the wall again and found that it had also passed through.
She stretched out her hand and played between the walls. Suddenly, she saw Feifei. Feifei was the same as herself, yet seemed different. Neither "Gu Yuan" nor "Du Jiajia" could see her.
But she walked through the door, followed Feifei in, and looked at the scene in shock.
Sister An used the silk thread in her hand to pierce Gu Yuan's mother's body. Gu Yuan's mother endured the pain and groaned.
"Your consciousness will dissipate during this time, and this body will die. Please spend the rest of your time saying your goodbyes."
"Thank you for keeping me so long."
…
Du Jiajia is almost going crazy. It was Sister An who killed the person. She was the murderer of Gu Yuan's mother. No wonder she didn't tell Gu Yuan the whole story.
Several people woke up one after another. As soon as Du Jiajia opened her eyes, she asked, "Did you kill him?"
Feifei: "It was Master Fengshen who broke the law. Master is not wrong."
Gu Yuan remained silent. Fei Fei said, "I'll tell you everything later. We have to get through this first."
As she spoke, Gu Yuan had already condensed the wind blade into a sword, ready to deal with the thing in front of him directly.
She guessed some things, but did not face the pain directly. At this moment, her heart was full of hatred, and she wanted to be stained with blood.
Just as she was about to strike, a pair of hands suddenly appeared from behind her, and with a light wave, they shattered her sword. A voice rang out: "Don't commit murder."
Gu Yuan: "Who are you?"
Feifei: "Master Mingchuan, I'm fine."
Gu Yuan looked at the woman in front of him and repeated softly: "Mingchuan?"
Mingchuan smiled faintly, and the next moment, they had returned to the community where Gu Yuan lived.
She slowly walked around the room and said, "Your mother has been wronged. She has been living here all this time."
Gu Yuan: "Can I talk to you?"
Mingchuan looked at her. Feifei, who was standing beside her, wanted to step forward to stop him, but Mingchuan raised his hand to stop her: "Of course." She turned to Feifei and said, "Take the child out."
Feifei nodded in agreement and led Du Jiajia out of the room. Mingchuan walked to the sofa and sat down.
Gu Yuan's eyes followed her all the time. Mingchuan spoke first: "You love your mother very much."
Gu Yuan: "Yes."
Mingchuan explained, "In the divine realm, mother is very important. We respectfully call the heaven and earth, which gave birth to all things, mother."
Gu Yuan: "Is your world the same as ours?"
"No difference,"
Mingchuan did not directly answer Gu Yuan's question, but said: "In the divine realm, everyone has their own duties, and every existence has its own mission and responsibility. The heaven and earth like it this way, but it is different in your human world."
"There's always conflict arising from the demands, and everyone is like a child vying for favor. But it also makes one feel that each of you has had a hard time, and each of you has your own difficulties."
"But Heaven and Earth treat all living beings equally, and will not neglect one for the other. They do not interfere in the disputes of the human world. They can only teach you the meaning of cause and effect."
"According to what you humans say, it's retribution. There's a divine will in the dark, and cause and effect go hand in hand."
"Your mother's actions have violated the rules, and she must bear the corresponding consequences."
Gu Yuan: "Just because you gave birth to me?"
"No, the root of the error is not you. You are a life. The Divine Realm will not wipe out life at will. We respect life."
"Why is that?"
"Because the Wind God was selfish, she fell in love with that human and developed selfish desires that shouldn't belong to a god. She used her power recklessly, trying to reverse time."
"An unjust god is no longer a god. She possesses a selfish personality and wields immense power, posing an unpredictable danger to the rest of the world. The divine realm must intervene to stop her."
Gu Yuan: "Unpredictable danger?"
Mingchuan looked at her and asked, "If you could intervene in life and death at the cost of other lives, would you save your mother?"
Gu Yuan didn't say anything, but Mingchuan had already anticipated it. She said, "God loves the world, but cannot love one person selfishly."
"Why does she want my mother to make the choice?"
"The Judge originally hoped that your mother would come to her senses and return to the right path. That was her teacher, and she couldn't bear to do it herself."
Gu Yuan smiled and said, look, they also have their own selfish desires, but they just don’t dare to admit it.
No matter how high-sounding the excuse was, it was simply because their mother was a variable among them, and they were afraid of change, so they killed her.
A platform built with the most flashy words can actually collapse easily.
But those who build the platform will deal with "traitors" who do not work or disobey, because they hold power.
Mingchuan: "What are you laughing at?"
Gu Yuan: "Nothing, you can leave now, I don't have any doubts anymore."
Mingchuan left without saying anything more.
