Chapter 710

"Come back? How does it feel?"

When Zhou Yu opened the door with a bucket in hand, the room was filled with the choking smell of burning ointment.The woman who called herself Jin Yu sat cross-legged on the ground and asked in a leisurely manner.She even held a brown-green cigarette in her hand.

Zhou Yu put down the bucket and stared at the woman intently.

"What's with that pool?"

The woman took a casual puff on her cigarette and said, "Did you see something?"

"I didn't shine a flashlight on that pool."

"Huh? Ah, I just said that casually. Ordinary people probably have to burn rhino horns to see it, but you are different. You can see it after a while, right?"

"...you knew it was going to happen."

"Of course. That pond is the spiritual water in this area. Your eyes have seen that kind of thing again, and it's strange that you can't see it," the woman said without any surprise in her tone, as if she said it for granted: "You found me The notebook you left behind? It’s the one hidden in the mirror.”

Hearing this sentence suddenly, Zhou Yu, who was planning to have a good argument with her, immediately forgot about the past.He asked, "Did you write that note?"

"No, it's something handed down from my ancestors." Jin Yu puffed at Zhou Yu, "I originally wanted to leave it for that child, so I didn't take it away with me. Although I didn't write it, I don't care about the content." It's clear. That's something you shouldn't know, it's better to burn it as soon as possible... It's too late, have you read the contents?"

Since being asked this way, Zhou Yu has no intention of concealing it.He briefly described the process of discovering the notes, translating the content, and performing the ceremony.

Jin Yu listened quietly while smoking.When Zhou Yu finished talking about the whole thing, the room was already filled with smoke from local cigarettes.

I don't know what kind of material her cigarettes are made of. After burning, the smoke reveals a little cyan blue. The smell is not very pungent, but it is extremely bitter.

"The person on the phone told you that as long as you execute the 'Dead End Game', you will have a 'Dream of Everything', right?"

Zhou Yu nodded.Jin Yu laughed out loud.

"Fake. It's completely lying to you. Everything? Haha, what a big tone. Doctor Zhou, please tell me, all the species in this world, remember I said all, do they have something in common? "

Zhou Yu looked at her suspiciously.After a little thought, he said, "They're all going to die."

"Yes, that's what happened." Jin Yu said with a mocking smile, "The only place where everything can be collected is death. The so-called 'everything and everything' is actually just a dream of death. Doctor Zhou, you have died a lifetime now. It's the one who suffered."

Before Zhou Yu could answer, she shook her head again: "No, it's not accurate to say that... the real 'death' cannot come back. The place you entered can only be called a 'small vortex' at best. That's all."

"Little Vortex..."

"City of death in vain, you know? Those who die after being wronged can neither reincarnate nor become gods and Buddhas until their grievances are eliminated. They can only be trapped in the city and wait. This is the kind of place you dreamed of. To die is to fall into the underworld completely.”

Jin Yu spoke casually, and flicked the cigarette ash on a piece of black paper in front of him.There were strange patterns drawn with white lines on that piece of paper, but because it was covered by soot, Zhou Yu couldn't see the details of the patterns clearly.

"...The underworld you are talking about, do you mean the Palace of the King of Hades? Do ghosts really exist?"

"No, this is just a term for your convenience. Whether it is Yama, Heaven or Hell, none of these exist in our world. Dead consciousness will only fall into the Great Source—you can imagine it as a The bottom of the abyss is healed."

She shook the paper and scratched a white round hole in it with soot.

"People who die normally will have their consciousness fall into this abyss along the water flow. Leaving aside what happened afterwards, it is the so-called soul returning to the Nine Springs up to this point. However, the water above the abyss is not completely still."

She put the soil cigarette on the paper and bounced along the periphery of the white hole, creating scattered gray spots.

"...there are many small eddies above the surface of the water. If the consciousness is caught in these small eddies on the way to the abyss, it will be forced to stay in the eddies until it becomes something that is not attracted by the eddies, or the eddies Until it disappears. However, people who die normally will not pass through the small vortex, and they must have established a connection for some reason before they will be trapped."

After saying this, she casually extinguished the local cigarette on the paper, then rolled up the whole paper and threw it to the corner.With that face and informal attitude, Zhou Yu was a little dazed.It took a long time before he sorted out his thoughts and said, "Your outlook on life and death is indeed strange, but..."

"This is not my view on life and death. It's just a simple analogy for you. Ah, with your ability, you can understand it to this extent at most." Jin Yu rolled his eyes at him.

"Anyway, you just want to find my daughter. Knowing this is enough. Did you see her in that city? This incident itself is proof that she is dead. Only the dead will be sucked into the small vortex .”

Hearing this conclusion, Zhou Yu immediately retorted: "I am not dead."

"Because you used cheating methods to get in, that ritual... let's call it a dead-end game. As long as you use that method, even a living person can get in. But, you don't have your own body there?"

A malicious smile appeared on Jin Yu's face: "You entered in the form of a dream, and you are like a ghost over there. If you can move normally...whose body did you borrow? There must be someone People related to you have voluntarily transferred the right to use your body to you. This is the only way for a living person like you to move freely in the small vortex."

Zhou Yu was speechless for a long time.He may not fully believe what Jin Yu said, but he is not in the mood to argue.In his view, there is no need to worry about the question of the destination of a person after death. It is enough for the living to only think about the things they are alive.

"Is there no possibility?" He asked with difficulty, "The possibility that she is still alive does not exist at all?"

"...I can't say for sure."

The woman with the same name as Zhou Yu stared at him for a long time, and said with a sigh: "As a mother and daughter, we have a connection that you can't understand, so I can know that she has encountered a very dangerous thing. But even so, I can't be sure that she has died until you appear here. Doctor Zhou, with that child's personality, if he hadn't lost his life, he would never abandon you. Her personality is similar to mine, so this is in In my opinion, it is a more important proof of death than her appearance in Xiaozuo."

"...Didn't you just abandon your husband?"

Almost with resentment, Zhou Yu blurted out some unkind words.Jin Yu was not angry, and said calmly, "That's two different things. If I don't leave, both Zhou Yu and I will be in danger."

"Do you have any rivals?"

"No, it has nothing to do with outsiders. If I don't leave, my daughter will kill me one day. This is the fate of people like us."

Jin Yu said lightly: "Doctor Zhou, don't you think I look too similar to my daughter? To tell you the truth, her grandmother also looks exactly like me. People with our bloodline, as long as they are born If the next child is a daughter, she will completely inherit her mother's appearance, and when she becomes an adult, she will inherit her mother's name.

"—The thing that must be done at this time is to kill my mother with my own hands."
