All living beings in hell

Chapter 30 - The source of the soul - that is,

The lotus lantern at the entrance was lit up, and the office welcomed No. 20 No. [-] customer.

"Master Writer." The voice seemed to come from behind me, or from the door, and I couldn't detect the specific direction at all. "Is it convenient?" The voice asked politely.

"Please come in." I spread out the paper and ink, and sat behind the wooden table.

I only felt a sudden chill rising from behind, there were footsteps coming from behind, and there were also footsteps coming from the door.I didn't turn my head, and leaned back on the wooden chair, until the legs of the wooden chair touched the bookshelf behind me.The solid sense of hard objects made me confirm that the bookshelf behind me is still there, and it has not become another space.

Then this guest should also come in through the door.

I waited for a while, but there was no shadow in the office.

A voice sounded from my right ear: "My lord, I have already sat down."

The sound was so close that I was a little startled.Such is the ubiquitous air and wind, the guest has no real body, but seems to be everywhere.

"What should I call you?" I asked.

"That's right." The voice was a little farther away from my right ear, and now it floated to the front right wooden chair, and the oppressive feeling was slightly reduced.

I wrote "Ji Wei" on the rice paper: "Ji Wei, may I ask why you are looking for me today?"

"My lord, you should not be able to see me." It said, "I am not supposed to exist in the dimension of hell, and there is no other manifested form except for voice."

"Then why did you come to hell to find me?"

"I want you to see things that exist in my dimension."

"Why do I need to see..."

Before I finished speaking, a huge hole appeared out of nowhere in the space, like a gluttonous mouth, and I was swallowed by it before I could react.

Everything in front of him instantly turned into darkness.

It's... the smell of dampness...

I slowly opened my eyes, feeling a little dizzy.

This is where……?
But in the next second, the surroundings were lit up like a stage, and I was shocked by the beauty here...

Looking around, it is all the Milky Way, with meteors passing by from time to time.Green, yellow, and pale pink halos float, gather, and spread out like auroras in the Milky Way.

I don't know if it's my tinnitus, or there is really a constant sound wave that has been echoing in this space, not sharp or deep, but absolutely impossible to ignore.

"Welcome, write." Ji Wei said, "We have been waiting for you for a long time."

"who are you?"

"Me, and my family." As Ji Wei said, a blue humanoid figure as tall as a five-story building slowly walked out from the crack in the space. There was no specific shape, just a mass of humanoid blue light.If you look closely, you can barely distinguish the facial features and fingers.

"Where is this?" I don't know if it's because of the latitude jump, my head hasn't adapted yet, and I'm still groggy.

"Beyond the Three Realms."

"Who are you? Who are you?"

"source."

"What source?"

Even though Jiji and his family have no eyes, I feel that I am being watched by thousands of eyes, whose vision penetrates the body.

"Your source, the source of all souls."

"I don't understand." I answered truthfully.

"You came from here to write, and many souls came from here, after billions of reincarnations, and then come back again."

"That is, why do you need me to see what's happening in this dimension?"

The arms of the blue figure suddenly spread out to both sides of my body, like a hug, forming a huge closed loop, wrapping me in it.Different pictures began to appear on the closed loop—the ancient one, the present one, and the future one—it was a complete timeline, including everything that had happened to me.I was wrapped in it, and everything in front of me was quickly flipped through like a revolving lantern.

No, not for looking.

Instead, it went straight into the head and heart, as if the memory had been copied and pasted.Strange events have literally become part of me.

"Writer, what did you see?"

"Past, present and future."

"Do you know why you want to see this?"

"I don't know."

"Time runs in its own way, but its way is just a physical rule, and has nothing to do with your subjectivity."

"I still don't understand."

"Many people don't know how to choose even if they see their whole life."

"It's not just people. Among the many guests I have received. They have seen their own afterlife, but they don't know how to choose."

"Good. So you know what to choose?"

"Choose what?"

"The life you want to live."

"know."

"Even after seeing so many different results and deduction, do you still know how to choose?"

"know."

"Why are you so sure?"

"For us mortals, things that haven't happened yet haven't happened yet. Even if the consciousness transcends the limit of time, the body still has to endure every minute and every second honestly. So you can see it when you see it. If I know who I am and what I want, so more deduction and results will not have much impact. What I don't understand now is, why do you want me to see this?"

"Because of you, you will come back after all."

"and then?"

"The brighter the returned soul, the brighter the light from the source, and the smoother the energy of the universe as a whole. We hope your soul is bright."

"I don't know if my soul is bright, it seems like something that cannot be guaranteed."

"Why?"

"I don't know what else I will go through, what I will become. Life is short, but you also said that time is so subjective to personal feelings. For some people, maybe a short year is like a lifetime. For For others, a lifetime passes in the blink of an eye. I have to go through so many things in this world. I don’t know if my soul can guarantee what you said after I leave this world. Bright."

"You have been reincarnated so many times, when are you going to come back?" Another voice beside Ji Wei asked.

"Why are you in such a hurry?"

"It's not in a hurry," Ji Wei answered again, "Writer, you are very bright now, so we can see you."

"But I can't leave the world right now and come back directly. I still have a lot of things to do."

"It's too bright, and it will be difficult to work in hell," said another voice. "Ghosts are attracted by the light, afraid of the light, but want to conquer the light. You will face many challenges."

"Well, I've already seen it, and I'm afraid I need to see more."

I unconsciously held my left hand on the forearm of my right hand, only to realize that the ten fingers of my left hand were as cold as ice.

This coldness is not the coldness of hell—it's like walking on a snowy road after being drunk, and just fell straight down under the influence of alcohol.The brain lost consciousness, and the body naturally cooled down after lying on the snow for too long.But at this moment, the owner of the body is asleep and unaware.

I felt a few glowing figures in front of me look at each other, and they asked me: "Is there anything else you want to ask us?"

"My job is to write. Although I have left hell right now, you are my guest, and I should still complete my job. Do you have any words that you want me to bring back to the world? I should perform my duties."

The figure in front of him was silent for a while, and the sound waves in his ears continued to echo.

Several voices said at the same time: "If you lose your way, calm down. Calm down, you can return to the source anytime, anywhere, and be linked with us."

"How do you count as quiet?" I asked.

"Think about nothing, do nothing."

"Okay, I recorded it here."

Ji Yi suddenly grabbed my cold hands, and I felt a warm and gentle air wrap around my upper body in an instant: "You've stayed here for too long, I'll take you back." Ji Wei said.

Before I said goodbye, I fell into the darkness again.

After I opened my eyes, I returned to the wooden table in the Hell Office, and there were dense manuscripts written on the rice paper in my hand.

"Write, we will see you soon." Ji Wei's voice came from behind the wooden table.

"Goodbye." I said.

"Enjoy your life," said Ji Yi, "bye."
