Chapter 541 The World of Cause and Effect
Looking at the arrogant Demon Slayer, Yun Chen already had an idea in his mind.
When the demon slayer raised his sword to kill him, Yun Chen pretended to be afraid and didn't dare to look, but in fact he secretly grasped the sword in his hand, turned over on the ground, and stabbed the demon slayer with a fierce sword...
heel.
As expected, Demon Slayer turned pale with shock. He screamed and fell to the ground, unable to get up again.
Yun Chen did a beautiful somersault and jumped up, smiling triumphantly:
"If it were me, I would definitely hide my vitals behind my heels. It seems you're not much smarter than me!"
After saying that, Yun Chen took his sword and left, ready to put an end to this "evil Yun Chen" once and for all.
At this moment, there was a sudden earthquake. A huge rhythmic sound came from a distance, shaking the earth "bang bang", as if some huge monster was rushing towards this place.
This posture made Yun Chen suddenly alert. He spat into his palm, gripped the sword tightly again, and prepared for battle.
In the thick fog, a huge black shadow was getting closer and closer. It looked a bit strange, as if it was jumping around.
When the black shadow jumped out of the thick fog and revealed its true face, everyone was stunned.
Yun Chen was also dumbfounded: "This is also a thing that was split from my soul? It's so ugly??"
The huge monster squatted on the ground, staring at Yun Chen stupidly, and made a "gu" sound.
The numb and limp appearance of the creature and its shape like a big toad immediately reminded Yun Chen of the Soul-Devouring Pill.
It looked back and forth between Yun Chen and Gui Mie, like a hunter choosing a weaker prey, and finally jumped to Gui Mie who was lying on the ground screaming. It stretched out its blood-red tongue, rolled it up, and swallowed Gui Mie into its stomach.
Accompanied by the Demon Slayer's screams as he was sucked into the abdominal cavity, the giant toad and the Demon Slayer merged tightly into one, exploded with a "bang", and suddenly turned into green smoke.
Yun Chen looked at everything that happened in a daze. She didn't expect that the underworld was more exciting than the human world. Everything was happening here and there, making her overwhelmed.
"Is the underworld always so lively?" she said, turning her head to look at the crowd.
Yun Zhongjun and Shen Youning, Huo Leiting and his wife, Dan Kou and his brother, the old lady and Miaomiao and the others, the old grandmother and Duoji, the people of the tribe... and Ye Yan, Hua Jue, Xun Jian and Xiao Liu, Luo Dongdong...
Everyone looked at her with a smile, their eyes full of warmth.
Yun Chen felt his back crawling and was bewildered when he was looked at by a large group of ghosts, ugh, relatives and close friends:
"Why are you looking at me like that? I'm done now, can we start eating? Are there any leftover incense sticks or candles? Give me two bites."
Relatives and close friends burst into laughter, and Shen Youning slowly stepped forward and held Yun Chen's face.
Her eyes trembled gently, and tears shone faintly:
"Chen'er, you should leave. You don't belong here yet."
"No!" Yun Chen threw himself into Shen Youning's arms, "Mom! I don't want to leave you and Dad! I don't want to leave anyone! Because of you, I'm not afraid of death at all! I want to be with you!"
Shen Youning caressed Yun Chen's hair lovingly, "Silly child, death is not scary, but life is more precious..."
Ye Yan teased from the side: "Are you sure you want to stay here? Then you won't be able to see 'A Nian'——"
The others also started joking, saying:
"Brother Yun, hurry back and burn two beauties for me. Find some pretty paper figurines!"
"Achen, please burn a pair of underpants for me. Rui Niang always forgets to do it for me."
"Achen, don't listen to Xiaoliu. Burning beautiful women is useless. Burning more gold ingots is the most practical!"
"Burn a rattle for me, Achen, don't forget it!"
"Stop wasting time, Yun boy! Hurry up and go!"
"Master, remember to love me the most. Don't love other ponies more. I'll be jealous!"
"Stop crying! If you start crying, it'll rain like crazy here."
"Brother Yun, remember to come back often—"
"Pooh, pooh, pooh! Children's words are innocent! Don't come here again!"
"From now on, there will be peace and prosperity in all seasons."
"Fool, death is not the end, oblivion is."
"We are all in your heart."
Finally, someone said these two sentences, and everyone couldn't help crying.
Everyone wiped away their tears, forced a smile, and pushed Yun Chen hard:
"Go ahead, don't look back! Keep moving forward!"
Yun Chen had already cried until he was out of breath. He hugged everyone one by one, dragging his feet reluctantly, and walked towards a halo of light not far away.
The voices of relatives and close friends gradually faded away behind him, and everything around him, such as the Huo Gang's villa, green grass and green land... all slowly faded away.
She approached the warm glow, and when the light disappeared, she saw a vast and profound library.
Countless books are floating in the air, and countless causal lines tightly cross and connect all the books.
She picked up a book at random and flipped through it. Just a few pages contained the life of a stranger.
Is it really so simple to look at a person’s life from God’s perspective?
As she was thinking, a disembodied voice suddenly came from the darkness and said to her:
"Time is not flowing, it is static. The future exists at the same time as the present. You can turn to whichever page you want to read."
After the voice finished speaking, a thick book floated in front of Yun Chen, with Huo Gannian's name written on the cover.
When I got closer to her, I found that there was a thick book underneath that belonged to her. It had "Yun Chen" written on it. It was tightly entangled with Huo Gannian's book by countless red strings, making it impossible to separate them.
She casually flipped a page, and every page was filled with the past of her and him being together through life and death.
When she looked through her own articles, she found that "Anian" was mentioned in every one of them, and his shadow was everywhere.
The two books are deeply intertwined and cannot be separated.
She looked up at the vast space again, and saw two books leaning against each other everywhere, and a single book floating alone.
She seemed to understand the truth of the world in an instant.
Between heaven and earth, there has never been birth or death, only reincarnation. There is no good or evil, only karma and cause and effect.
The current situation of the Three Kingdoms being unified with the Huo family as the king is the result of the interlocking efforts of thousands of people and events. It was not a step too early, not a step too late, not one person less or one person more, everything is just right.
Take Huo Gannian for example. If he had died young when he was the young master of the Huo Gang, would there be the current outcome of the Three Kingdoms being unified with the Huo family as the king?
Wasn’t it because of Yun Chen and his many guards that he survived so many ambushes and assassinations back then?
What led Yun Chen to his side was the search for his benefactor and Plum Blossom Breaking Moon, and that persistence was nothing more than the red thread of fate...
She suddenly understood that in this vast ocean of cause and effect between heaven and earth, everyone is a black and white chess piece.
And she and Huo Gannian were just two little chess pieces that depended on each other for survival...
In an instant, my heart was filled with inexplicable confusion and it was hard to describe.
She opened the book that Huo Gan read and came to the Yong'an Hall to reveal the truth.
Looking down from the sky, she saw herself falling from the tall and long jade steps.
Huo Gannian rushed over and hugged her desperately, using his body as a protective shield, and rolled down heavily.
Turning the page again, she saw Fu Lin sitting in a side hall, analyzing and persuading her at length, but unfortunately it was Demon Slayer who woke up at that time.
Then, in front of everyone in the palace, Huo Gannian solemnly knelt before the demon slayer, raised his head as if in prayer, and said with a slight redness in the corners of his phoenix eyes:
"Please, give Chen'er back to me."
She turned the next page and an unexpected scene came into her sight.
In the side hall, she was in a deep coma.
In the main hall, Yan Lang said sadly, "Her soul is torn apart, her meridians are slanted, and her inner demons have given rise to evil spirits. She was already like this when she was in the Yan Mansion. Now, after swallowing the Soul-Devouring Pill, she probably... only has forty days to live..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Gannian's face turned pale.
