Chapter 230 What is the Secret Realm
Seeing that he didn't answer, Fu Zhenghong sneered and said, "Secret? Then let me make a guess.
The so-called golden armor. Everyone thinks it is armor made of gold. Your ancestors got it and used it to make a fortune. There are rumors that your ancestors originally wanted to pawn it at a pawn shop, but regretted it halfway through.
It seems that this is not the case. He did not intend to pawn the golden armor, but he did become rich because he used the giant python to kill people and steal their wealth.
After Fu Zhenghong finished speaking, the man's face changed drastically. He raised his finger and pointed at him, stammering: "You, how could you, no, you can't..."
Seeing him like this, Fu Zhenghong continued, "In recent years, the Li family has been extremely wealthy in Bailu City, with wealth comparable to that of a national treasury. They have no competitors in business, but anyone who comes into conflict with you will always encounter inexplicable accidents.
"But even if they investigate, they won't find you. That's because you're following your ancestors' lead, using the python to make money. If anyone crosses you, you let the python kill him."
The man was truly frightened at this moment. He felt as if he had nowhere to hide in front of Fu Zhenghong.
You can't hide what you are thinking from the other person.
A layer of coldness gradually appeared in Fu Zhenghong's eyes as he looked at the man in front of him who was dressed in gorgeous clothes and had a look of fear on his face.
The man was stabbed in the throat by a sword. His eyes widened and he fell straight to the ground.
Fu Zhenghong put away his sword and turned to leave.
From now on, the Li family will gradually decline.
When I returned to the deserted house, it was already daybreak.
After a night of rest, Shen Shuyuan's internal injuries were no longer serious.
He was now only thankful that the python only had physical strength but no internal strength, otherwise he would have died long ago.
Ji Qiuyue also changed her clothes.
Even though she had washed herself clean, she still felt a fishy smell on her body.
But I can’t care about so many things now. There are more important things to do.
When Fu Zhenghong came back, the two of them quickly asked him for the results.
Fu Zhenghong also reported the news he had received truthfully.
"Secret realm? Do you mean that Ye Xu did so many things just to open the secret realm?" Shen Shuyuan asked for confirmation.
Fu Zhenghong said: "I don't know, that person from the Li family said so."
"What kind of secret realm is it? It actually made Ye Xu so crazy." Ji Qiuyue sighed.
Fu Zhenghong said: "Now, we have no choice but to hurry to Wuji Mountain and meet Ye Xu to find out the final truth of the matter."
"Okay, let's go now." Shen Shuyuan said.
-
Qingling chased him all night but still lost track of Ye Xu.
He stood in the empty wilderness, with no trees or grass around him, only wild grass that stretched as far as the eye could see.
But it's not even half his height.
No one could hide in the shallow grass, which made Qingling grit his teeth.
"Sir, the people didn't catch up." The subordinate came forward and reported.
After escaping from Li's Mansion, Ye Xu prepared several substitutes in advance and fled in different directions.
Qingling also quickly ordered his men to chase after them separately.
He lost the person, and his men came to report the news one after another.
Some were lost, and some were caught up and found to be just substitutes.
At this moment, Qing Ling's face was frighteningly gloomy, as if he had returned to the time when he was still the feared leader of the demon cult.
"Go to Wuji Mountain." Qingling gave the order immediately.
"Yes."
They returned to the city, found the Qingyang Sect's stronghold in the city, prepared the best horses, and traveled quickly.
-
Ye Xuan's answer to Song Yu really shocked her.
She once thought that Ye Xu had traveled through time and space in a book just like her, and that perhaps his soul had become a character in the book, which was why he was able to fit in so perfectly.
But later, she guessed that maybe Ye Xu was not a soul traveling through time and space, but was actually traveling through time and space like her. It is possible that he killed the original Ye Xu and took over the identity of this character.
But in the past few days, Ye Xuan's words and unusual behavior made her have a third suspicion.
Ye Xu is not a transmigration into a book, he is a character in the book himself. The reason why the contrast between the beginning and the end is so great is that he is either possessed and crazy, or his consciousness has awakened.
The awakening of the characters' consciousness in the book is not terrible, at most it just changes the ending.
You may have a feeling of sudden enlightenment, and feel that your previous self was just a dream. From the moment you wake up, you will choose a new life and continue on.
What is truly terrifying is that when the character's consciousness awakens, he also realizes that the world he lives in is just a book.
Your life from beginning to end, no matter whether it is sad or happy, is false. It does not belong to you and is controlled by others.
But the feelings brought by sadness, joy, and happiness are what you actually experience.
If your life is perfect, you won’t think too much about it and may even feel fortunate.
But if life is miserable, some people may not be able to bear it.
After all, all the misery is controlled by others. If given a choice, no one wants to experience pain.
This explains Ye Xu's abnormal behavior.
However, Song Yu still doesn’t know when he awakened?
Was it sudden or was it stimulated by something?
The only variable in this world is Song Yu himself.
Since Ye Xu is not an outsider like her, what is his significance to this world as the only outsider?
The conversation between Song Yu and Ye Xuan came to an abrupt end because of Ye Xuan's answer.
Song Yu got the answer he wanted, but didn't know what to do next.
Ye Xuan looked at Song Yu's expression and said after a long while, "Speaking of which, I have to thank you. If it weren't for you, my father and I would not be able to see through this false world."
Song Yu came back to his senses. Now that the matter had been made and both of them knew each other's cards, he might as well be straightforward.
Song Yu encouraged himself in his heart and looked directly at Ye Xuan: "So, what are you going to do?"
Ye Xuan said, "Now that we have seen clearly, we must escape."
Song Yu asked, "Jumping? What do you mean?"
Ye Xuan said: "You come from the truth, and we also pursue the truth."
Song Yu understood instantly, but she still couldn't believe it: "Impossible, this is simply impossible."
Ye Xuan said, "How can we know if we don't try? Since we can break free from the control of fate, what else is impossible?"
Song Yu said: "But, have you ever thought that the moment you awaken, this world also becomes real to you."
Ye Xuan was stunned, as if she had never thought about this question before.
But soon, she added: "You don't have to lie to me like this. You like Qingling now, so you think this world is real."
Song Yu said anxiously: "You also have Fu Zhenghong, don't you like each other?"
When Fu Zhenghong was mentioned, Ye Xuan's eyes flickered.
But it was only for a moment, and she quickly returned to normal, and she said: "You don't seem to understand yet, we are different from you.
In this world, I am set to be the female protagonist, and my senior brother is the male protagonist. This is just a setting. Our lives, experiences, and even our feelings are just settings. If it is just a setting, how can we talk about sincerity? "
