Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

Chapter 359 Evolutionary Fork
Until she saw the social changes she recorded in detail and her own reflection on society, Chen Yan finally couldn't help it.

'These things she recorded...the events and history of these guest officials are a precious treasure no matter how you look at it! '

'But she hid all these records in a secret corner, and no one knew about them except her. '

'Even the headmaster... I followed him down the chimney when the headmaster came. The headmaster is such an arrogant guy. Turn a blind eye. '

'What a treasure this is. 'Chen Yan sighed again.

Raz not only hid his records, but never said anything about them to anyone.

After a long time, Chen Yan finally felt her dazed state—although she recorded it, she didn't know why she wrote down those things at all.

She was just doing simple repetition, meaningless repetition.

During this observation process, Chen Yan discovered another thing that was not right:

'Looks like a memory fragment is missing. '

In a cycle that was long enough to cause the mind to collapse, Chen Yan finally discovered that the memory about Raz's evolutionary divergence due to the "harmful unknown knowledge" had never been in the countless memory cycles. It happened before his eyes.

'The day she was exposed to [harmful unknown knowledge], her mind was distorted, and she began to think about [the true meaning of the record] disappeared. '

'Something must have happened that day... That day must be hidden deeper in the memory! '

'How to get to the deeper part of the memory...'

At this moment, Chen Yan suddenly remembered the thick fog that enveloped Raz's entire memory world.

'No... no way! '

For a time, countless thoughts came to my mind.

'What if...if that thick fog is really some kind of [symbol]?

What if the "fog" symbolizes Raz's "covering" of some memories he doesn't want to remember?

[Dense Fog] itself symbolizes the meaning of cover, cover, etc...'

Chen Yan really didn't want to rashly contact unknown existences, so he held back his temper and carefully observed Raz's 110-year memory from beginning to end.

This time, he not only paid attention to what Raz was doing, but also observed every move of everyone around Raz, and even everything that happened on this small piece of land.

But unfortunately, he still didn't find anything abnormal.

Raz's mind was distorted, and the day when he began to think about the "true meaning of the record" did not appear in front of him.

When she saw Robert Justus' big unshaven face again, Chen Yan finally made a decision.

'Until now, of all her memories, the only thing I haven't explored is what lies behind the thick fog. '

'If I want to leave this repeating cycle, the only chance is after the fog. '

Chen Yan once again stood in front of the thick fog.

He was silent for a moment, then stepped forward, into the thick fog.

A cold touch appeared, followed by a subtle, single raving sound.

He had heard this voice thousands of times, and the moment it appeared, he realized that it was Raz's voice.

While his eyes were in a trance, the thick fog cleared, and a dim light shone into the hall in front of him.

There are all kinds of coolly dressed girls coming and going in the hall, most of them are pulling all kinds of men to shuttle through the corridors, and a few are leaning against the corner, smoking a cigarette, waiting for the men who enter the gate to walk towards them come over.

And in the corner of the hall, in an inconspicuous place, the old man could no longer walk. She was wearing tattered clothes, and she sat on an ordinary chair with dull eyes. blank notebook.

Raz was too old to hold a pen.

She just sat there blankly, and a kind girl would wipe the drool off her mouth when she passed by.

But that's all.

They knew that her life was coming to an end, and in return for using this small building, they would help her solve some difficulties in life.

But it's just helping her deal with the simple life.

Their kindness is obviously not enough. Now she has not bathed for an unknown period of time, and her body is already stinking.

Chen Yan came to Raz, squatted down, looked at her dull eyes, and sighed.

"Raz, are you dying?"

Raz looked at his face dully, and said like a flash of light:
"You...you are..."

Chen Yan said:

"I am Chen Yan... the second Chen Yan."

Raz's eyes are in a trance:

"I'm sorry... I... don't remember you..."

That being said, the memory of this Raz should be before death as a human being.

Chen Yan asked:

"Raz, what else can't you let go?"

Raz thought about it seriously, his dry lips trembled slightly, and expressed his inner doubts:

"What's the use of my records?"

Chen Yan listened patiently to her lisp, and replied:

"That's a valuable asset, and people can use the knowledge in those records to do a lot of things and avoid a lot of mistakes."

Raz laughed, an ugly smile:
"But, those knowledge are my treasures, why should I share them with others?"

When she said these words, Chen Yan was surprised that every time she uttered a word, some dim "shadow" would break free from her body.

Whenever the "shadow" breaks free from her body, her physical body will appear a little bit "transparent"——

When she finished speaking, her body became transparent to the naked eye.

It was also at this time that Chen Yan saw a thick fog spreading not far behind her, near the wall.

At the end of the channel where the thick fog spreads, there is a deep pool hidden in the dark forest.

The thick mist overflowing from the deep pool turned into a misty long snake with its tail immersed in the deep pool all the time, cruising along the ground to her feet, and climbing up her body along her legs.

The moment the fog-like snake touched the "shadow", the shadow seemed to be guided by the thick fog, struggling to enter the deep pool along the fog-like poisonous snake!

After seeing this scene, Chen Yan suddenly realized that the deep pool, the forest, and the misty poisonous snake were the [harmful unknown knowledge] that led Raz to the evolutionary divergence!
Chen Yan thought quickly in his head, the smell of the symbol [fog-like viper] is simply too strong, not to mention the two separate symbols of [fog] and [poisonous snake], even if [fog] and [fog] and [Venomous Snake] combined as a symbol, he can easily find many corresponding meanings.

But in order to prevent the "shadow" from leaving Raz's body, Chen Yan had to stop thinking and asked:
"If you don't want to share it with others... If your records are buried in the dust with you and disappear in this world, what's the point?"

A panicked expression appeared on Raz's face:

"What did you say...how is it possible..."

When she said these words, the shadow did not continue to leave her body, which made Chen Yan heave a sigh of relief.

Chen Yan continued to ask:

"Raz, just record, what is it for?"

After the confusion in Raz's eyes, he gradually became firm:

"No matter what... I insist on recording everything. Recording has become my life, and that is the meaning of my existence."

This is not the first time she has said something like this.

But what was different from before was that when she finished speaking, the shadow in her body almost broke free from her body, and in a blink of an eye only her feet remained in her body!

Seeing such a phenomenon, combined with the symbolic meaning of [Mist Serpent], Chen Yan suddenly realized——

The reason why Raz was able to continue to record in the form of "spirit" after the death of her physical body was because of her strong obsession——

This unreasonable and incorrect obsession supported her soul and made her go astray in evolution!
Hearing her answer, combined with everything he saw before, Chen Yan was almost certain:

In the symbol of [Mist Snake Shadow], [Fog] represents the chaos of thinking, without further thinking; while [Snake] represents [being led by wrong ideas and having no own opinion].

When thinking of this, Chen Yan finally realized that the reason why Raz took the wrong path of evolution was because her vision was narrow and she was still in ignorance—it was her [ignorance] that led her into a wrong path !

Thinking of this, Chen Yan felt dizzy for a while.

What the director said was actually right. She really walked on the [evolutionary divergence] because she was not guided correctly, and only relied on her own figuring, and followed her own life experience in such a muddle-headed way.

Could the so-called [Harmful Unknown Knowledge] be her own ignorance...

The fact is so simple that it makes people laugh, but Chen Yan can't laugh at all.

After careful consideration, Chen Yan decided to ask that question.

"Laz, do you know what the meaning of records is?"

The expression on Raz's face became dull.

At the same time, the shadow that broke free from her body actually struggled violently, as if desperately trying to break free from her body!

"The...meaning of the record..."

A look of bewilderment appeared on her aged face.

"I do not know……"

There was deep sorrow on her ugly face, but her lacrimal glands had withered, and no tears could flow out.

"Well, let me tell you."

Chen Yan said seriously:
"The things you recorded, the history that actually happened, are the wisdom of mankind."

"Everything you record, latecomers—any life, can understand right from wrong and discover the truth from it."

"The objective rules of the world exist in the process of history and in your objective records. If you don't analyze these objective records, the rules cannot be explained clearly."

Raz's eyes gradually brightened, and her voice trembled:

"So... I should make these records public..."

The shadow behind let out a shrill scream, like a trapped animal.

Chen Yan nodded heavily:

"Yes, the records you exchanged for years are the most precious history.

If you want to see the way forward, you must look at history! "

When the voice fell, the shadow had returned to her body.

The fog cleared, and the light of dawn shone on her face, illuminating her ugly smile.

Raz's smile is obviously so ugly, but Chen Yan feels extremely beautiful.

"I have walked to the end of my life, so I will leave those records to pass on to you."

After Raz finished speaking, he lowered his head and died completely.
