By the way, I almost forgot to mention that there is one more thing that needs to be explained before continuing. That is, the few seconds before complete death may seem fleeting to others, but it is completely insignificant to the deceased himself. There is no concept of time. Yes, there is no concept of time, which completely and completely confuses time. The details often vary from person to person. Some people will be confused and unaware, and some people will feel it within a few seconds. A moment shorter than a second, but for some people it feels like they have been there for a century.
Chen Xiaoyao belongs to the last category.
Move, move forward, keep running aimlessly.
Ever since he inexplicably appeared in this gray space, the young man has been walking and moving, just aimlessly moving forward in a world that seems to have no boundaries. During this period, he also miraculously discovered that he had walked completely for so long. No fatigue! No, not only fatigue, but also the physiological reactions that living things should have, such as hunger, thirst, and even sleepiness, all disappeared and no longer existed. If the above discoveries initially surprised Chen Xiaoyao, then, as he went further and further, Gradually, he felt a little lost for no reason. .
Yes, even though he doesn't know where he is now, his consciousness is still awake. In addition, he is a Taoist who often deals with supernatural beings. After pondering for a moment, Chen Xiaoyao finally... I understand, and finally found a trembling answer that is closest to the truth among countless confusions.
As expected, at this moment, I am definitely no longer in reality, and this is definitely not the real world!
Thinking of this, apart from being stunned, I also couldn't help but sigh in my heart:
It seems that I may really be dead.
………
The overall space is gray, the environment is windless and dust-free, there is no noise, no sound, everything is silent.
Mysterious, strange, extremely weird and other words can describe this gloomy world.
What's even more terrifying is...
This place is huge and vast.
(It seems that I may really be dead.)
At this moment, the young man was lamenting as he walked, lamenting the past, lamenting life, and feeling sad for his untimely death.
In fact, there is one thing that Chen Xiaoyao doesn't know, that is, it is precisely because he is a monk with a spiritual power far higher than that of ordinary people that he still maintains a relatively clear self-awareness in this world, that is to say If an ordinary person were placed here, anyone would be in a state of sluggish trance with no consciousness at all.
It is true that being conscious is a good thing, but it also caused him to experience loneliness, depression, and other alternative feelings that humans have never had before.
In a lifeless environment, Chen Xiaoyao just walked in this vast and boundless space where the main tone was gray. He kept walking and kept walking. He could not feel the passage of time. After all, the concept of time was completely meaningless in this space, so from now on. I don’t know how long I have been walking. It could be a day, a week, a month, or just a few seconds. In addition, the human body skills have disappeared, so I have no concept of time and no fatigue at all. As he pleased, he walked for a long, long time until...
Until I saw a new scene on the distant horizon.
He raised his head and looked into the distance, observing intently. As he walked, a group of things similar to buildings appeared in the distance. Motivated by curiosity, Chen Xiaoyao rushed over. As the distance got closer, until he stepped into it, the young man suddenly realized that this was a town. A wasteland town.
Logically speaking, there is nothing unusual about this town. Unexpectedly, when Chen Xiaoyao arrived in the town, his eyes widened in shock, and he was dumbfounded.
The reason is that the buildings here are too weird, or it can be said that they are completely different from the architectural style and even appearance of any period in the human world! .
In the field of vision, there are triangular houses with upside down roofs, strange octagonal buildings, strange combination houses, and irregular abstract buildings. In addition, the buildings are also densely covered with circular windows. It was pitch black and seemed extremely strange, but in fact, the surroundings and even the entire town were dotted with all kinds of strange buildings that people couldn't understand.
Yes, this place is weird, strange, and difficult to understand. For example, most ordinary people will only feel novelty and surprise when they first look at it, but once they look at it for a long time, it will gradually make people feel chilly, uncomfortable, and even afraid.
Yes, this was a sense of incongruity beyond human common sense. As it became more and more uncomfortable the more he looked at it, Chen Xiaoyao could only turn his eyes away from the building.
Although he diverted his attention away from the buildings, as he continued to move forward and continued running, soon, some movable things gradually appeared in his sight.
Similar to the initial mentality, still curious, the young man began to observe and size up, but...
It's okay if you don't look at it, but when you look at it, you can see that his hair is standing on end! .
So, what is that?
What kind of weird things are these?
While passing through the town, in addition to the strange buildings, he also saw many creatures and many 'people' along the way.
Wherever he went, he was horrified. He saw a 'man' with a head several times larger than his body wielding a hoe to cultivate crops in the fields on the roadside. He also saw a 'man' with a neck more than ten meters long standing on the roadside. Motionless, I saw an unknown creature that looked like a human but was on all fours with its head completely wrapped in bandages and turning around under a tree. The thing had extremely thin limbs but a long body. It was like that, meaninglessly turning around under the tree. Not only that, as we continued to move forward, we also saw a humanoid skeleton with skulls all over its body squatting on the roof of a house. Although this thing looked terrifying, it paid no attention to anything around it, and instead concentrated on getting it. A fishing rod in his hand seemed to be waiting for something. It looked like fishing, but the strange thing was that it was sitting on the roof. It was neither a lake nor a river below, just a gray ground. In addition, he also saw a The extremely thin man moved slowly with a cane in his right hand. The cane in his right hand was trembling. His left hand was holding a four-legged animal that he could not name. He was walking slowly by the edge of the woods. While walking, there were occasionally people above him. Birds flew by at low altitude, but what was different from other birds was that these bird-like creatures all had human heads on their necks...
What Zongzong saw was all kinds of weird and indescribable.
Yes, Chen Xiaoyao has seen countless weird things and witnessed a lot of weird scenes along the way, but in fact, he has never been able to recognize even one thing that he can name!
what happened? .
Am I crazy or is this just the way it is here?
Or are those things actually...
What he saw above made Chen Xiaoyao extremely painful along the way. At first, he could restrain himself and stay calm when he saw these weird things. However, as time went on, the scene in front of him made him more and more uncomfortable and he could no longer control his heart. of uneasiness and pain.
There is no doubt that this is a creepy and dark world, a world without sound, and a world of complete silence. No one knows what those strange things are, and no one knows why they keep moving forward. Walking, even he couldn't figure out the reason for walking. Fortunately, he was conscious, so during the walking process, he suddenly wanted to stop. As a result, he successfully stopped, but he didn't stop for long, and he was overcome by a certain force that he couldn't resist. Prompted by his goal, he actually moved again and continued moving forward.
The state is quite complicated and difficult to describe. To describe it, I can only give examples. It feels like a person who has been hungry for several days is approaching a place with food. It is true that the body is controlled by the individual's consciousness and can stop whenever he wants. But even if it stops temporarily, within a moment, the person will continue to move forward again, prompted by irresistible thoughts.
(Why? Why am I like this? Why am I here? Why is it so quiet here? Why is it all gray? Even everything here is weird? Why do I feel a sense of pain and desolation in my heart? This, Is this his place?)
The more I thought about it, the more painful it became. The more I thought about it, the more uncomfortable it became. In the end, the young man started running. He suddenly accelerated like crazy and ran wildly. He quickly left the town and ran towards a dense forest on the opposite side. In the process, there was no sound of footsteps or breathing. He heard the sound, ran madly to the edge of the woods, and immediately ran into the dense forest without saying a word.
However……
As soon as we entered the dense forest, something even weirder happened!
Out of habitual thinking, Chen Xiaoyao thought that the first thing he saw after rushing into the dense forest were trees, dense trees that filled his field of vision. However, in a daze, for some reason, just when his field of vision recovered from the shadow of the trees, he suddenly Only then did I realize that there were trees in front of me? Where are the woods? It is clearly water, and it is an endless ocean!
But at this moment, he was inexplicably sitting in a small boat that could only accommodate one person, drifting forward under the silent and silent sea water. .
Seeing this, even though he had been accustomed to all kinds of weird scenes earlier, when he saw the scene in front of him, the young man was still stunned on the spot. He was so frightened that he didn't react for a long time. In the end, his eyes widened and his face opened. Lu was shocked.
The reason was that he saw something, besides the sea water that had come into view earlier, he also saw other things, or that he was frightened out of his wits by another boat.
Looking up and looking intently, I saw a boat coming from nowhere on the dead sea. A boat appeared on the sea level far away from the boat. A boat with a diameter comparable to the Pentagon and a height comparable to the Empire State Building. Super giant black ship! ! !
The giant black ship was sailing slowly, moving quietly on the sea surface without creating a single splash.
Because it is so huge, it is so huge that even from a long distance, you can still clearly see the trap at the end of the ship. It is true that the hull is huge and terrifying, but in fact the above is not the most terrifying thing, because after gradually getting over the initial shock Later, Chen Xiaoyao further discovered another phenomenon that shocked and could not understand him, that is...
The bottom of the huge ship did not touch the water at all!
In other words, this giant ship is actually floating on the sea through space!
At the same time, when Chen Xiaoyao was surprised and shocked, a sudden change occurred. The originally calm sea surface underwent a shocking change at this moment. The change began with a massive volume. Without any sound, a large whirlpool suddenly formed behind the giant ship. , and then a gray column thicker than the Eiffel Tower slowly emerged from the water, followed by the second, third, fourth, fifth...
Within a moment, five thick beads were distributed in a ring around the sea surface. But also because all five giant pillars appeared, Chen Xiaoyao was horrified to discover the truth of the matter. This, this... what kind of pillar is this thing? It was clearly a human hand, a palm, a human palm as big as Mount Fuji! ! !
Under the undulating waves, the palm stretched out from the sea, and then the palm covered the sky and the sun, easily covering the sky. In addition to causing the environment to turn black, Chen Xiaoyao's vision gradually darkened...
There is no concept of time or space. I am still neither hungry nor sleepy, nor tired nor tired. The only thing that exists is black and silence.
I don't know how long it took, but when the vision became clear again, the young man discovered that the environment had changed again and the scene had changed again. .
This time, he found that he was in a stone monument, a huge area with no end in sight. As mentioned above, although his position was inexplicably moved again, this time he really recognized it. After clearing the scene in front of me, I confirmed the name of the place.
cemetery.
It is 100% a cemetery. After all, he still knows the endless crosses around him. Of course, he knows him. What really makes Chen Xiaoyao shocked is not the tombstone, but the things above the tombstone. He is surrounded by him, and everywhere in the distance. There is a human skeleton floating above every tombstone!
Yes, there is a human skeleton floating 20 centimeters above the cross. The skeletons just stay motionless in mid-air in violation of the laws of physics. There are so many of them that there are as many skeletons as there are in the tombs. It stretches as far as the eye can see. That’s it. Filled the entire cemetery.
Perhaps he has been here for a long time or has experienced too much and has become numb. Although the scene in front of him is terrifying enough, in fact, it only took him a moment of shock before Chen Xiaoyao returned to normal and returned to calm. He was no longer surprised or stunned. Other than that, in his heart The pain was slightly relieved. Seeing this, the young man moved. After looking around generally, he continued to walk and move forward. In other words, he moved in a certain direction again under the strange idea that had been maintained for a long time.
As I said before, the gray world is different from the real world. Time is meaningless here, space is meaningless, and even human physiological reactions will disappear. Because of this, Chen Xiaoyao doesn't care, doesn't care at all, doesn't care that he will How long have you been walking, not caring about where you are going, until...
Until I was walking and felt shrouded in a mysterious trance. .
It felt like he had fallen into a bottomless whirlpool. Fortunately, the trance did not last too long. As the trance dissipated, he realized that he had unknowingly arrived at a new place, the one that he found most incomprehensible so far. A place of understanding.
Inability to understand means inability to express,
Inexpressible means unable to describe. If you insist on describing it in words, the following description may be the closest to the current situation:
Let's not say where the trance comes from. As the strange feeling disappears and the vision becomes clearer, when I look up, the first light that catches my eyes is color, black and white.
Simply speaking, it can be understood as...
On the left and right sides of the body stand two colored lights that cover the sky and the sun.
On the left is the white area that occupies all the sight and even the space on the left. Yes, white, all white. And this white area is also distinct from the gray world we are currently in. If you look closely, you can even clearly see the boundary, that is, the stripes. The dividing line between the gray world and the white area is like this on the left. As for the right, it is also a pure black space that occupies all visible fields of view. Yes, this kind of black is completely black, a deep black color without any light at all. And just like the white space on the left, the black space on the right is also distinct from the gray world in the center. At this moment, Chen Xiaoyao is exactly in the middle of the black and white space on the left and right, in the central gray zone.
Um?
Because the scene in front of him was too unexpected, Chen Xiaoyao was stunned after seeing this strange scene that he had never seen before.
what happened?
What is the white light wall? What is the black light wall? .
Scanning the scenes on both sides, the young man was a little confused. He immediately began to make guesses in his mind. Unfortunately, he couldn't figure it out. He racked his brains and couldn't understand what the black and white on either side of the gray represented.
But, who would have thought that just when the young man was confused and confused, a scene that made him ecstatic appeared!
Unknowingly, on the right, the originally silent black space rippled inexplicably. First, there was a violent vibration, and then a group of happy scenes were displayed. There were many pictures in the scene, and there were many scenes displayed in the picture. good.
There are groups of beautiful girls playing on the beach, fashionable young people wandering freely in the city, many cute animals playing in the park, beautiful sunsets casting their afterglow on the sea, and countless game consoles showing wonderful pictures. A large number of casinos exude excitement and excitement, there are tables of delicacies from the mountains and seas that exude an alluring luster, and piles of money and banknotes emit a soul-stirring light.
Finally, there is the room, a cozy bedroom with a comfortable bed quietly placed there...
(It’s great, it’s great, it’s all good stuff, it’s all good stuff.)
(These things, I, I...)
Staring at the seductive scenes in front of him, his eyes gradually drifted away, his eyes gradually lost, and the corners of his mouth twitched, the young man unconsciously smiled, revealing a smile. He was gradually attracted, attracted and fascinated by the various pictures that were so close at hand. In addition, all kinds of human desires are also flooding the whole body and covering the brain at this moment.
As he watched, he gradually began to feel, and the long-lost human body perception reappeared. He felt thirsty and hungry in his abdomen, mentally exhausted, and his body was on fire. In addition, he also wanted to play, I want to have fun and play all day long.
Driven by curiosity and in confusion, the young man subconsciously glanced to the left. Unfortunately, there was nothing on the white wall on the left. .
Yes, no, there is nothing in the white area, while the gray world is scary and weird, only black, only the black area has things that I and even everyone like.
As the saying goes, Taoists always have a psychology of contrast. Sure enough, after seeing the black, white, and gray areas, for Chen Xiaoyao, who is currently completely enveloped in various desires, there is no doubt that the black area attracts him. The force is obviously far beyond the white area.
Then……
Chen Xiaoyao moved.
Attracted by the black area, tempted by all kinds of beautiful things that ordinary people can't resist, he smiled and blurred his eyes, and then involuntarily moved his legs, carrying his body to the right,
The whole person can't help but get close to the black area and the black light wall, and the young man's expression always maintains intoxication and longing during the walk.
The movement never stops, the steps never stop. .
As his legs move one after another, the young man gradually gets closer and closer to the black area, until he reaches the front and reaches the boundary between gray and black.
Yes, this is the dividing point, this is the dividing line. Just take one step forward and the young man will disappear into the darkness.
Because the desire in his heart was too strong, when he reached the edge, he only hesitated for a second. After a second, the young man did not hesitate anymore and just moved his legs towards the darkness.
However, at the last moment when Chen Xiaoyao stepped out with his right leg with joy and was about to enter the black area...
An angry scolding suddenly reached my ears:
"I'll beat you to death!"
As mentioned above, just when the young man was about to enter the darkness, an angry curse came out among the lightning and flint. A rather old and angry scolding was instantly passed into his ears. Not only that, as soon as the scolding was issued, there was a big hand following closely. , a skinny and wrinkled slap came out as hard as lightning, hitting Chen Xiaoyao straight on the face!
But it was precisely because the slap came at the perfect time that it slapped the young man directly back into the gray area. .
Snapped!
"oops!"
Maybe he used too much force, but this slap had a remarkable effect. Not only did he wake up the young man instantly, but he also let out a series of miserable screams on the spot. The result was predictable. Because he was slapped hard for no reason, he fell down as soon as he screamed. On the ground, Chen Xiaoyao came to his senses at the next second. First he leaped off the ground like a carp, and then he covered his left face with his hand while looking around and yelling: "I'm fooled! Who? Who is he?" Are you beating me up!?"
Unexpectedly, as soon as the curse words were spoken, before God even waited for the young man to find the attacker, a powerful and powerful words suddenly came from behind:
"Hey! You little bastard has turned against you! How dare you call yourself me in front of a poor man? I just finished spanking the left cheek, is the right cheek also starting to itch!?"
"Forehead?"
Ding!
(This, this, this is...).
As the sound entered the eardrums, and as the scolding spread around, no, it should be said that after hearing the very familiar voice behind him, the young man's whole body trembled like an electric shock, his heart beat wildly, and he was stunned on the spot. , and after a few seconds, his facial expression gradually turned into excitement, becoming more and more excited.
In addition to being excited, a line of hot tears also burst out of my eyes at this moment...
