Above the nine springs, people rob the earth and the spirit

Chapter 272 Dead End
Bai Tianqing went to the hospital.

If the mother is dead, then there shouldn’t be a mother in the hospital.

She went directly to the hospital according to her memory and asked for relevant information, but she didn't expect that it really existed.

When she arrived at the ward and looked at the beautiful, gentle but sickly woman lying on the bed, she remained silent and her fingers unconsciously twisted the hem of her clothes.

Her mother had passed away?
The people inside may have heard the noise, opened their eyes and looked over here.

Bai Tianqing walked over and looked at his mother with a weak smile.

"Why are you here? You have an exam tomorrow." The mother said with some anger.

"How did your exam go today?"

Even her voice was hoarse, but the concern between the lines could not be seen as fake.

There are no flaws, but it is possible that it was generated based on her memory.

Bai Tianqing stared at her for a while and suddenly took out a knife.

Under the mother's astonished gaze, she placed the knife on the man's neck.

"Tianqing?" Confusion was written all over the mother's face.

"My mother is dead, you are fake."

Bai Tianqing didn't know what her mood was at the moment, but if she was asked to take action directly, she was unable to do it.

However, she did not like this false appearance.

Of course she didn't want her mother to pass away, and if possible, she also hoped that they could be together for a long time.

But if the deceased is dead, she cannot tolerate someone taking advantage of the relationship between her and her mother and trapping her.

The mother on the bed was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said, "Okay, go ahead. Since I don't exist, don't let me restrain you."

Bai Tianqing's fingers trembled.

This is something a mother would say, and that's why it's so sad.

She closed her eyes and put away the knife, but the black vines quietly entangled the person on the bed.

As the person lying on the hospital bed turned to ashes, some cracks finally appeared in the world she saw.

The real world is illusory, distorted, and hidden beneath the surface.

Maybe this was an illusion created for her, and if she wanted to destroy her appearance, she would need to break some key things.

Her mother was one of them.

So what else?

Maybe the college entrance examination?
The next day, Bai Tianqing stood outside the examination room. As she followed the crowd into the examination room, she observed everyone around her.

From time to time, she would see flashes of real scenes. The intersection of reality and illusion made her feel extremely unreal.

Is she also thinking about taking action?
As she walked, she had returned to the examination room.

The invigilator today is still the same female teacher.

The other person gave her a meaningful smile.

"I wish you good luck in your exam today." said the female teacher.

The content of this morning's exam requires students to survive without using their own abilities as much as possible, testing their ability to survive in extreme environments.

The exam began, and Bai Tianqing found himself standing in front of a cliff.

There is an abyss ahead.

Does this place look familiar?

When she looked around, something was climbing up quickly in the abyss. Bai Tianqing wanted to retreat, but there was white mist behind her, which meant unknown dangers, and of course the abyss as well.

This exam was harder than expected.

Especially the unknown monsters that crawled out of the abyss, they could ignore her power.

She realized that this exam was a real danger.

There is no way to defeat these monsters using strength, and you have to survive in their hands for three hours.

Bai Tianqing plunged into the white fog.

Those monsters didn't catch up completely, only a few of them came out. In fact, the reason why these monsters are only called monsters is because they look different.

The overall look and feel is a bit like slime, black in color, but its body can change into various shapes from time to time. It only has one mouth, and with one bite, it can even crush stones into pieces.

The fog seemed to block their vision and slow their movement.

Bai Tianqing increased her speed and soon left all the monsters behind her. At the same time, she was also deeply trapped in the fog.

A strange feeling came over me.

She instinctively walked in one direction.

Soon, scenes began to vaguely appear before my eyes.

She had seen this kind of scene in a book before, or rather, it was introduced in a book. In fact, there were no specific pictures, because it was said that after seeing those pictures, many people would be pulled into that scene in their dreams.

The stacked buildings keep falling down and being rebuilt, as if time has pressed the accelerator key here, causing the scene to change rapidly.

The only thing that remains unchanged is the huge marine creature floating in the air.

The book says that in places shrouded in darkness, there is no sunlight, only fog, and in the fog, some people seem to have entered another world, a world of underwater creatures that can float in the air.

Just like at this moment, a huge jellyfish as tall as a floor is shuttling through the overlapping and changing buildings, its long tentacles emitting faint light, so unreal in the fog.

This seems to be some kind of illusion, but once you enter, you will be lost and there will be no trace of it anymore, and you will not be able to go back to your original world.

Unless... the red moon rises to guide your way forward.

This is one of the reasons why the belief in Red Moon will expand rapidly, as it is the guide of darkness.

These unknown, huge, and miraculous scenes make humans feel insignificant, but also generate yearning and worship for those equally mysterious and powerful forces.

Bai Tianqing felt something and looked back.

Sure enough, a red moon appeared in the sky.

She looked at the huge illusion again, and a brown octopus with countless tentacles slowly floated over.

Bai Tianqing had seen this kind of octopus in her fragmented memories.

As a popular saying in the human world goes, the red moon and the dark illusion are essentially tools used by mysterious species to try to control humans.

Because in the world of Red Moon, some people have also seen octopuses, or in other words, it is the kind of existence that is always given the so-called Cthulhu image, which is also one of the beliefs of Red Moon.

The Red Moon People are God's messengers and the most loyal believers. By becoming a Red Moon People, one can get rid of human weaknesses and evolve successfully.

Of course, the people in heaven don’t think so. They are looking for a true path for human evolution that is not dependent on anyone.

Now, these beliefs or not had little to do with him, she just stood there as if she needed to make a decision.

That is, where should she go?
Should I continue walking towards the illusion deep in the fog, or turn around and follow the guidance of the red moon?

In fact, she didn't want to choose. She was considering whether she could kill the red moon. Maybe there was more than one red moon, and she might not be able to kill them all.

What if she turns back and chooses the abyss?
Being eaten by a monster?
It seems like every road leads to a dead end.

I haven't updated recently because I started a new book. This one might be due to fate. I'll probably focus on the new book. If the new book is stuck, I might write about this one to change the status.
