00743 Bottoming Reality (Part 1)

"That's right, this is the darkest utopia, Turaya." Lin Xue said, stretching his arms, and then the world suddenly lit up, and all the darkness was dispelled.

In that bright world, countless adults and children woke up one after another and started a new day in their respective rooms.

Lin Xue's voice was cold, but her half-smiling expression didn't look like a dominating lunatic, but more like she was mocking Lin Sen and Dongfang Ruo for their rarity and strangeness.

"Do you feel weird? Do you think everyone here is my slave?" Lin Xue said and walked up to Lin Sen.

Lin Sen couldn't help but take a step back. He was inexplicably afraid of his strange sister.

"Isn't it? How do you explain the situation in your room?!" Lin Sen was still struggling.

Lin Xue replied calmly: "Petty was a good girl, but she died, so I replaced her in order to allow this family formed by robots to survive that shadow smoothly."

Lin Sen froze when he heard this, and then looked at Dongfang Ruo, who also had a look of disbelief on his face.

"You lied!" Lin Sen said coldly.

Lin Xue smiled instead: "I thought I really misjudged the person and thought you were not my brother, but now it seems...you are no different from the brother I know. Like you, he always likes

Doubt everything, with inexplicable malice, imagine everything in the worst direction."

Lin Sen felt nothing in his heart when he heard this. He did doubt everything, but that was not an inexplicable malice, but the truth!

Seeing that Lin Sen still didn't believe it, Lin Xue said: "Okay, I don't want to explain anything else. Since you are restless, I will send you back."

Lin Xue's eyebrows flashed as she finished speaking. The familiar red color made Lin Sen even more convinced that what he saw was the truth and that what he guessed was the truth.

So he took a step forward, condensing the turbid energy in his body in the light, and planned to resist with all his strength.

Lin Xue looked at it indifferently, and then the space sequence compiled in her hand collapsed, and she said: "Don't want to leave?"

Lin Sen replied: "You can't leave!"

Lin Xue's expression changed when she heard this. When she looked at Lin Sen, there was no trace of affection or sympathy at all.

Dongfang Ruo rushed forward upon seeing this. She seemed to have realized something and planned to stop Lin Sen.

"Wait!" Dongfang Ruo said.

But Lin Sen pulled her back and did not allow her to speak.

Lin Xue glanced at Dongfang Ruo, and then said coldly and arrogantly: "Ah... well, then don't leave, you can stay here."

Lin Sen's expression changed when he heard this. The energy he gathered was still very weak, but he ran out of time, so he rushed forward.

But Lin Xue just waved his hand, and the space was like a cube that could be rotated. Lin Sen and Dongfang Ruo, who were trapped in it, froze and turned into specimens in amber. They lost their mobility and all perception.

.

He looked at the "brother" in front of him who was waving his fist towards him.

Lin Xue's cold eyes were full of disappointment and hatred. She wished she would never meet him again...

While looking at this huge piece of "space amber", two men in white trench coats appeared. They stood respectfully behind Lin Xue and waited for instructions.

"Send them to Dempsch Prison." Lin Xue opened her black umbrella and turned to leave.

The two men in white bowed respectfully, and then simultaneously raised their hands to grab the "space amber" from the air. The space was completely stripped out, and the defects left did not collapse, but were quickly removed.

The world around you is complete.

After they finished grabbing, they put their hands behind their backs, turned around and flew into the air, and the "space amber" followed them away.



Once upon a time, in the dark mines, Lin Sen lost his sense of meaning as a human being. He was like a flesh and blood machine, struggling hard on the gears of fate. In the end, he could not get salvation. He just felt the pain, and then got it.

The hard-earned money used to replace the DNA sequence.

Now, Lin Sen was awakened by cold water. When he woke up, he found that his hands and feet were bound by heavy chains and his body was extremely weak. This made Lin Sen couldn't help but remember the self that once struggled to survive in the mine.

"Hey, newcomer, don't sleep all day. If you don't eat, you will starve to death soon." The old man in the corner reminded me kindly.

It wasn't that Lin Sen didn't want to eat, but he simply couldn't hold the chopsticks. The chain was heavier than he thought.

So... Lin Sen just smiled bitterly, then leaned against the wall, raised his head, and looked at the prison.

Without the familiar roof, what Lin Sen saw was a blue sky. But if he wanted to see a bigger and more magnificent scene, he could only climb up with bare hands. Climbing two hundred meters was enough...

But... is it possible?

Lin Sen closed his eyes. He felt unbearably thirsty and his throat ached.

Suddenly, the cold water was poured on his face again. Lin Sen quickly opened his mouth and drank heavily.

But he was too impatient and choked after just one sip.

Accompanied by a violent cough, Lin Sen fell to the ground, and bursts of mocking laughter could be heard in his ears.

"Hey, I thought this kid didn't want to live anymore? I didn't expect him to know how to drink water?" The speaker had bare feet, wide soles, and was covered with body hair, which looked disgusting.

Lin Sen wanted to stand up, but that disgusting foot crushed him to the ground.

"Yo? Still want to stand up? Have you asked me for permission?" The noisy voice was right next to my ears.

Lin Sen's face was pressed tightly against the ground. The ground was very cold, dirty, and exuded a stench. Blood flowed from the corner of Lin Sen's mouth and mixed with the muddy water, and soon turned a large area red.

When he saw the blood, someone reminded him: "Okay, Fei, are you really planning to kill him?"

The big fat man coughed and spit on Lin Sen's face: "Bah! I won't kill this rapist, it will make my hands dirty!"

Rapist?!

Lin Sen heard it clearly, and then smiled with relief: 'No wonder he is the only one here who wears heavier shackles than others, and he is still not welcome.'

"That's right, let him go. If he doesn't eat for a few days, it would be best to starve to death!" Those people walked away laughing.

Lin Sen then started to try to get up.

But he was too weak...neither his arms nor his waist and abdomen could exert any strength.

Am I really going to starve to death here?

Lin Sen felt so mocked, but at the same time he couldn't help but remember Dongfang Ruo.

She shouldn't have suffered such a disaster with herself, but she still came, just...

'I hope she's okay...'

Lin Sen fainted while thinking about it.

The old man in the corner saw that everyone was gone, so he came over cautiously. He was short in stature, but very strong.

Even with Lin Sen's hands and feet shackled, he could easily pick him up and put him back on the bed.

Looking at the unconscious Lin Sen, the old man's cloudy eyes were full of smiles and joy. He took a rag and wiped Lin Sen's face, then quietly took out some nutrient solution and injected it into Lin Sen.

After everything was done, the old man returned to the corner and sat down. He said to himself: "It has come true... it has come true... Sailosh... is finally back!"

As the old man spoke, his whole body trembled with excitement. He looked at the sky with burning eyes, and then showed a rare smile: "Finally...back!"



When Lin Sen was unconscious, in the women's prison on the other side, Dongfang Ruo wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth. She raised her head, her eyes were black and blue, and the pain made her tears flow down uncontrollably, but her expression did not show it.

Show no trace of weakness.

The people around were trembling. They looked at this devil in fear and watched her wrap her graceful body tightly in a bath towel.

After Dongfang Ruo wiped away the blood, he turned around and the people behind him immediately moved out of the way.

With a cold smile, Dongfang Ruo left the bathroom, bypassing those who fell to the ground.

When I returned to my room, someone had already prepared food and drinks. It didn't feel like living in a prison at all.

In this comparison, Lin Sen's side is really suffering.

However, Dongfang Ruo's life was not so easy at the beginning.

When she woke up, she was covered in blood, and several ugly women were holding knives and planning to disfigure her appearance.

Dongfang Ruo's hands and feet were tied to the bed at that time, unable to move at all.

But even so, even in the darkest place where the mysterious power is completely isolated, these people want Dongfang Ruo to be disfigured, which is equivalent to seeking death.

Fortunately, Dongfang Ruo was relatively gentle that day, so that was the scene in the bathroom today.

One out of ten, Dongfang Ruo received two punches and one knife, but those people died and were injured.

While eating, a little girl helped Dongfang Ruo suture the wound on her shoulder. Dongfang Ruo looked calm and free of pain. This made a group of people who followed her even more impressed.

However, Dongfang Ruo was not happy at all.

With her ability, being the king of a prison is nothing... but wanting to escape from here, or even return to her own world protected by infinite light, has become an unreachable fantasy.

Every time he thinks of this, Dongfang Ruo feels helpless.

Sometimes she really hated herself for not being decisive enough and letting Lin Sen do such unwise things...

But then I thought about it, if there really is destiny in the dark, maybe everything I encounter now is also mysterious.

This is what Luo Shengtian taught Dongfang Ruo.



"Master? What is destiny? Does it mean that who each of us will meet in the future and what we will do are all written down?" Dongfang Ruo asked.

Luo Shengtian replied: "There is a certain destiny in the dark, but the cause and effect are orderly, but it is not always possible to see the overall situation from the beginning. Therefore, the future that your uncle saw when I was here has completely changed now."

Already."

Dongfang was thoughtful, she nodded, and then asked: "Then uncle, is he crazy because he can't accept reality?"

Luo Shengtian looked at the clever teenage girl in front of him and said with a wry smile: "Your uncle is not crazy, she just can't untie the happy knot."

"Well? What does that mean?"

Luo Shengtian sighed: "In this world, it is a very common trouble to find problems and encounter pain. It is true, but if there is no answer and no ability to resist, it will become a knot in the heart, and once the knot is formed, it will be like

The devil haunts you and changes your appearance beyond all recognition, causing you to become crazy and stupid. Therefore, Master often tells you that although it is difficult to see through, it is still not as easy as being confused."

"Oh..." Dongfang Ruo seemed to understand.



To this day, when I think of this passage again, Dongfang Ruo still doesn’t understand it.

Although she can communicate with heaven and earth, use mysteries, and even see the truth, she cannot see the darkest true meaning.

If Lin Xue is the master, then she has no reason to lie to Lin Sen anymore, but...

What does that mean?



When I woke up again, I didn’t know how many days had passed.

Lin Sen has nightmares every night, and they are different every night.

From the beginning of the train, to the subsequent fall into the abyss... and recently, during the period before waking up, he even saw the scene where Lemidia and Wu Huan were killed by Meili.

The world was destroyed, the Central Veil was victorious, and he did nothing! Nothing could be changed...

This process was painful, but as time went by, Lin Sen began to feel the reality more truly, and felt the atmosphere under the prison two hundred meters deep, and he became silent.

Although he seemed very decadent, he finally survived, and... no one cared how he was imprisoned anymore.

As night fell that day, Lin Sen felt unusually hungry.

This sudden feeling of hunger was very strange...because he had never experienced it for more than ten days just drinking water, but now...he was extremely hungry.

The most real pain made Lin Sen toss and turn in bed.

The old man in the corner found out and asked quietly: "Newcomer, what's wrong with you? Are you okay?"

Lin Sen didn't want to speak at first, but he was so frightened by hunger that he said with trembling teeth: "Is there anything to eat...I...I...I'm so hungry..."

The old man laughed when he heard it, and immediately took out a box of things, but instead of sending it over, he placed it next to Lin Sen's bed.

"Yes, now, this is what I have left over from eating these days. You can make a living."

Lin Sen smelled the sour smell of food. Normally, it would be impossible for him to eat such food.

But now he climbed out of bed desperately, grabbed the box and devoured it.

But the shackles on his hands restricted his movements, so he could barely eat a little, and the rest sank to the bottom of the box.

Lin Sen panicked, his eyes changed, and then he suddenly thought of a way.

I saw him turning the box over, pouring the food on the ground, and then lying down like a hyena in the wilderness, enjoying the smelly gluttonous feast.

The old man saw this and did not step forward to help, nor did he laugh at it.

He just watched quietly as Lin Sen ate all the food on the floor.

When Lin Sen sat up again after eating, the old man said: "How is it? Newcomer, are you feeling better now?"

After eating, Lin Sen felt extremely satisfied physically and mentally, but as the comfort dissipated, the mental shame caused him to fall into silence.

He remembered his dog-like posture just now, and he did it under the gaze of others.

This made Lin Sen want to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.

But at this time the old man said: "Don't be afraid, I'm not here to laugh at you, and I don't mean to tease you. I just want the superior Sailosh to feel alive again! Feel the feeling of kneeling down to beg for food when your desire is satisfied.

A little happiness..."

The old man's tone was calm and his expression was even calmer.

The anger welling up in Lin Sen's heart collapsed in front of this calmness. He was still ashamed, but he was no longer ashamed of his previous ugliness, but of his malicious hatred.

"Do you know Saiosh?" Lin Sen asked.

The old man nodded: "Well, in this world, everyone knows Saiosh, but the only people who recognize Saiosh are the little girl in Sanyu Building and me, a bad old man who is locked up in prison."

The little girl in Sanyu Building...are you talking about Lin Xue?

Lin Sen frowned and asked again: "Who...are you?"

The old man smiled. He put his face over and said, "Do you recognize this face?"

Lin Sen took a closer look and saw that it was very strange...

"do not know……"

The old man smiled: "Of course you don't know me, because you don't belong to this world at all, so... there is no need for me, an old man who should have disappeared long ago, to declare his family status."

Lin Sen understood and became much calmer.

But the old man suddenly said: "But, the unfinished ideal requires me to live, and it also needs the help of Sailosh from other worlds like you, so... if you have any questions, just ask."

"Huh?!" Lin Sen was shocked when he heard this, and then asked doubtfully: "You mean... you can tell me the truth about this world?"

The old man smiled: "Not only that, I can also teach you how to leave here, leave this prison, and leave this world living in a dream."

Living in a dream world?

Lin Sen was a little confused, but he was already satisfied.

At the same time, he thought, could this be what Dongfang Ruo said... "There is a destiny... in the dark..." Maybe fate was destined to bring him here from the beginning.

Thinking of this, Lin Sen felt much relieved.

But when he was asked to ask questions, he suddenly felt a little confused. After all, he wanted to ask too many questions.

However, after some thinking, Lin Sen identified several key issues.

He asked: "Please tell me, what's wrong with this world?"

The old man was startled, then smiled: "You really know how to ask, what should I say when you are so big when you first come up?"

Lin Sen's serious expression was stunned for a moment, and then he secretly cursed himself for being so stupid. Such a big and broad question was no longer empty, but nonsense.

So, Lin Sen changed the question and asked: "Well, okay, can you tell me why the world is dark everywhere and everyone lives like a puppet?"

After hearing this, the old man chuckled and said, "Because it's hopeless."

"Hopeless?"

"Yes, there is something called economy that allows capital to accumulate continuously. Behind the booming development is completely the evil of opportunism. After the gluttonous feast, one pyramid after another is left standing tall. Although the bottom line of life makes the pharaohs finally

I turned into a mummy, but... being protected by the blood of countless people should be quite satisfying." The old man said this casually.

But Lin Sen heard it extremely harshly.

He was a little unbelievable, and at the same time even more curious, who was this shaggy-haired, unattractive old man...?

"You mean...it is the uneven distribution of capital that leads to everyone's hopelessness?" Lin Sen didn't want to continue this topic, but he tried to follow the meaning of the question.
