On a street with few pedestrians, as the cold air blew slowly past her, Youyou wrapped herself in a coat that didn't quite fit, and stopped to look at the sky in the distance.
It's cloudy today.
Winter has arrived unknowingly. After experiencing the loneliness of autumn, the cold weather in winter seems to be even more unbearable.
News of the horror world spreads.
As a result, there are fewer pedestrians in this extreme weather, and there are not even many vehicles driving on the roadside. Most cars are parked on the side of the road, and the thin layer of dust on them also means that they have been there for a while.
It has not been used by anyone.
A little cold...
Yoyo turned up the hood at the back of her neck and put it on her head.
She first walked into a convenience store that was still open and bought an oden and two lollipops.
After hearing that this store was newly opened and had no cigarettes for sale, she had no choice but to turn around and walk towards another convenience store. While eating oden, she selected cigarettes with relatively good-looking packaging on the shelves.
Well, of course she doesn't smoke.
What kind of cigarette does the kid smoke at home? The reason why she wants to buy a pack of cigarettes is because she has to meet someone next...
Even if you hate it very much.
But there are still people you have to meet.
Putting the well-packaged cigarettes into your pocket, Youyou walked silently on this lonely street.
Walk through the park, walk through the square.
Walking through a small alley adjacent to a residential building, she turned a corner and came to the location where the aura she detected in her perception was. After confirming that the person was in the residential building in front of her, she walked towards the corridor.
The floors are old and there is a faint musty smell in the air that has lasted for too long.
The stair railings are all covered in rust.
There were traces of moss growing in some corners. Youyou didn't expect that the other party would actually live in this place.
"It should be right here."
He raised his head and looked at the door in front of him.
Hanging on both sides of the door are the Spring Festival couplets posted during last year's New Year. However, due to the humid environment, the Spring Festival couplets on the right side have disappeared, and the Spring Festival couplets on the left side are about to fall off.
After finishing the last bite of oden, Yoyo threw the remaining disposable dishes and chopsticks into the garbage channel not far away. Then she checked that the cigarette was still in her pocket, and she reached out and knocked on the door.
Dong Dong...
The knock on the door echoed in the corridor.
Youyou had been mentally prepared before this, but when the door was opened, Youyou couldn't help but slow down a bit.
The other person's face is very familiar.
It was so familiar that she didn't want to accept it, but she had to face it.
"Finally, I knocked on the door. I thought you would not dare to come to me after standing at the door for a long time." Faced with Youyou's appearance, Lu Chushi didn't look surprised at all on his face.
As if he had already guessed that the other party would come, he opened the door and went back to the house.
"Why don't you dare to come? I just want to finish my oden. After all, I heard from others that it is very impolite to visit others while eating hot food."
Yoyo has no restraints.
Even like an old friend whom I have known for many years, he walked directly into the house minding his own business while talking.
The house is not big, only about a few dozen square meters in total.
This place was the house that Chen Yaxuan rented before. Su had long lived here after Death Town, and after he entered the taboo script, Lu Chushi moved here again.
The rent that Chen Yaxuan paid was indeed not enough.
The reason why he has been able to live here without being evicted by the landlord is that Lu Chushi later paid part of the rent.
The things in the horror world are enough to cause headaches. With the crime rate soaring, everyone is eager to have less things to do and stay indoors every day.
As for why my tenant turned into a man...
The landlord didn't want to care so much at all. As long as he could receive the rent, it was difficult to rent out his house in this situation, so he didn't want to be too forceful and wanted to cause some trouble.
"How is it? Why do you want to come to me?"
Lu Chushi took a glass of water next to the water dispenser and took the lead in opening the topic. He placed the water glass on the coffee table in front of Youyou, sat back on the sofa and crossed his hands, asking with interest.
Youyou had no answer to this.
She just took out the cigarettes she bought before from her pocket and silently put them on the coffee table.
"I bought this for you."
"I heard that cigarettes are very suitable for men to communicate with each other. I couldn't find any other meeting gifts, so after thinking about it, I bought this one..."
The cigarettes on the table are very dazzling.
Lu Chushi was surprised that Youyou would bring him a gift.
Even if I say that I don't smoke, I have this intention, and I'm afraid things won't be easy this time.
"I don't smoke, but I take it in good faith."
"Tell me, what exactly is it?"
Not intending to continue beating around the bush, Lu Chushi asked again.
Youyou took a deep breath, and she suddenly regretted that she came to find Lu Chushi. In this situation, she was obviously passive, and she really didn't want to have such a contrast in identity between herself and Lu Chushi.
but......
It's finally here.
Youyou decided to put aside the so-called face first and told Lu Chushi the reason for her coming this time.
"You should know the current situation of the forbidden script, right?" she asked Lu Chushi.
"Yeah. I know."
Lu Chushi nodded without denying it.
In fact, he has always been paying attention to the matters in the taboo script, such as the struggle for supplies in the animal world, Qianye's recent planting plan, and the progress of Su Zao and Youjian's missions. He knows all these.
And when Youyou mentioned the forbidden script, he suddenly guessed the possible reason why the other party came to find him.
"The infinite nightmare begins."
"Qianye has now entered the nightmare for the second time, including your Youjian and your Su Zao. They have also been exposed to the nightmare." Youyou narrated.
There was a pause in the middle.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! She turned her head and looked at Lu Chushi: "You should know what I want to express..."
Infinite nightmare.
This is a unique rule in taboo scripts, and it is also the reason why taboo scripts are more terrifying than other scripts.
Very simply, as the name suggests, this rule represents one round after another of nightmares. People who are in nightmares will not feel anything at first and just think it is an ordinary illusion.
But as the nightmares increase.
The reality experienced by the experiencer will be stronger...
In their nightmares, they will constantly experience things from the past, the future, or illusions.
In a situation where there are no rules and the nightmare can never be actively broken, the experiencer will sink into it unknowingly until it is impossible to distinguish between nightmares and nightmares, and until it is impossible to distinguish between nightmares and reality.
Maybe a second ago, I and my best friend were able to get through the hard times together.
But the next second, this so-called good friend will stab himself inadvertently and explain some things that he hates you about, but you have absolutely no idea about and have never done...
Reality and illusion will overlap and melt.
The reality of the nightmare will increase layer by layer, and finally people will completely fall into despair...
When people can't even determine reality.
The tragic ending was already doomed.
Lu Chushi understood what Youyou said. He was originally wondering why the other party came to find him. After a long time, it turned out that it was for this reason.
"So you came to find me just because you want me to give them some help?" He asked Youyou with a smile on his face.
"Um."
Youyou answered truthfully without hiding anything.
Lu Chushi is the only protagonist born so far, and only the other party has the right to intervene in the taboo script.
Even though Youyou could see what happened in the forbidden script, she had no way to hinder or change everything.
Chino cannot die.
Even if he doesn't succeed in getting the protagonist's identity, he can't die in the forbidden script. This is what Yoyo only hopes for...
"But, have you ever thought about why I want to help him?" However, Lu Chushi didn't care about it.
He fiddled with the cigarette case on the table and expressed his opinion.
"His innate ability should be stronger than you and I imagined. As long as he dies, then even if I don't get the abilities of Youjian and Su Zao, this is a great thing for me."
"It's not long before disaster strikes."
"You should know very well that there is no way to prevent this disaster with Qianye alone."
"Even if I can't interfere too much in this world, no matter what, my usefulness is much higher than him..."
With every word Lu Chushi said, Youyou's expression became even more ugly.
Of course she knew the reason why Lu Chushi did this.
But Qianye's existence is necessary for her, and she can't just watch him die like this.
If Qianye dies like this in the taboo script, it means that she is also likely to disappear from this world...
"How's it going? I'm right. As the embodiment of another world, you should know these things better than me." The expression on Lu Chushi's face did not change much, as if he had anticipated the ending.
Facing Youyou's arrival, it seemed that he was in control.
Yes, Lu Chushi was right.
Compared with Lu Chushi's identity as the protagonist and his concrete embodiment of the "life" world, Yoyo's identity is not much simpler.
But Lu Chushi was still too confident.
Concerning the matter of "the embodiment of another world", Youyou just shook her head.
"There is no need for you to test me in this way. I am not the person you are looking for. I know that you urgently need to find another world to materialize and absorb him, but it is a pity that you have found the wrong person."
"oh?"
Lu Chu's tenth tone was raised a few points.
Looking for another embodiment, he had started preparing before he knew that disaster would eventually come.
To be honest, it wasn't just a day or two that he knew Youyou, it was even longer than he knew Qianye.
Suppose the world of horror truly merges with the real world.
As a "born world", he will disappear from this world due to fusion.
Of course, Lu Chushi didn't have any overly ambitious wishes. After living for so many years, he had seen a lot of dead people, and his body and mind had long been numb. Even if everyone in the world died, it would not matter to him.
But maybe it's because he has lived for so long that he cherishes his existence very much.
Immortality means never dying.
Only the fusion of worlds will break this balance...
In order to protect himself, he must find the concrete embodiment of the "dead world" before the world merges, that is, before the disaster strikes, and only by absorbing it can he completely prevent the disaster from coming.
Thus.
Only then could he continue to live.
Originally, Lu Chushi had prepared a two-pronged plan from the very beginning. Since he was born in a world of horror and could not intervene in the real world, he would look for a new star in the real world and train him to help him prevent disaster.
.
The safety of the god-making plan is his first priority.
However, An's performance was really unsatisfactory. Even if the owner "plundered" the talent, the other party failed to successfully use it. The possibility of preventing the disaster was extremely slim.
Secondly, he set his sights on Yujian, who was extremely mature mentally...
But what I didn't expect was.
Although Yujian was sensible enough and could easily make reasonable judgments on things, his mood was affected by some romantic things. Ever since he knew that Yujian was imprisoned in the town of death by Qianye, he had lost confidence in Yujian.
Su Zao was just an unexpected product of the plan. Su Zao, who only had the ability to destroy, would never let Lu Chu Shi put his hope in him.
Therefore, Lu Chushi set his target on Qianye again.
Facing this guy who rushed out halfway, who has grown to this point in just a few years, if we give him some time, there is still a lot of hope to prevent disaster from happening.
But when Qianye was discovered, it was too late...
The world is integrating much faster than imagined.
Even with Qianye's current growth rate, Lu Chushi didn't think that the other party could reach the point of resisting the disaster in a short period of time.
Since it doesn't work.
So in the end, there is only one way left.
For Lu Chushi, not placing his hopes on others, but blocking the integration of the world by himself, is the most likely method.
The reason why the two worlds were balanced in the beginning.
That's because "living" in the world of horror and "death" in the real world, neither party can make much change in their respective worlds. The influence of completely contradictory abilities makes the world balanced on a seesaw.
Due to Lu Chushi's special birth, he is unable to interfere too much in the real world, so based on his current appearance, he cannot interfere in disasters.
only......
He can only find another embodiment of "death" and absorb it into one with himself. Only then can he have the right to intervene in the entire world.
As the balancer of the horror world.
As long as someone dies in the terrifying world, Lu Chushi will be able to gain that person's abilities.
This is similar to An Zhi's plunder, but what Lu Chushi can obtain is not just talent.
Including thoughts, curses, life span...
He can get them all.
This is why he can become the protagonist.
Lu Chushi was very confident at first. After all, as the most powerful person at present, he believed that he would be able to prevent disaster after finding the embodiment of "death" and gaining the right to intervene.
But as the world merged more and more, he discovered more and more the horror within it.
So far.
Lu Chushi's plan changed.
Not only does he want to find the embodiment of the so-called "death" of his other half, but he also wants to send those who have abilities today into the terrifying world for sacrifice...
