Chapter 593 Want to understand the true meaning of life?
Wu Tiao Building.

In a room like a ward in a hospital.

There was no difference from usual, and there should be no difference. On the bed in the ward, her frail body was trembling.

——Because the door that should not welcome visitors was opened at this time.

It's just that compared with the undisguised sound of twisting the door lock and opening the door, there was not even the sound of footsteps, and at the same time, there was no more sense of presence than this, and that person had already come to the bed.

"Yes, who is...?"

Wu Tiao Wuhui, who has been bedridden since she was a child and has no relatives or reasons, resisted the sense of uneasiness, and turned her sightless eyes to the side of the bed, and then she froze for an instant.

In her absolutely dark field of vision, she could vaguely see the outline of the comer...

No, to be precise, I could see the figure of that person very clearly.

In a black overcoat, with long hair hanging down to her waist like a waterfall, those blue eyes reflect everything in the world like a mirror in a quiet lake, but at the moment they are staring at themselves...

The figure standing beside the hospital bed was a young man who seemed to be about the same age as her, but it made her feel like she was facing a high and indifferent god.

It's not that I feel any substantive pressure, but it makes me feel that I'm subconsciously acting a little restrained and wanting to behave in front of the other party.

It seems to be a subconscious psychological activity that changes naturally.

Wu Tiao Wuhui even had the illusion that her own ward had turned into a vacuum, and even breathing became difficult, for fear that if she inhaled and exhaled a little harder, she would startle some prehistoric beast.

"who are you?"

asked the trembling woman.

She didn't know the other party, and she didn't think that the other party would have any intersection with herself, but she was so sure that the other party was undoubtedly here for herself who had no family.

The boy didn't answer this question, but just glanced at the whole body of the woman on the hospital bed, immediately giving the latter the feeling that she was completely seen from the inside out, like falling into an ice cellar.

She felt a kind of fear that seemed to freeze her whole body.

"Are you Wutiao Wuhui?"

His voice resounded, and he used an interrogative sentence, but it seemed to be a confirmed tone.

"..."

"..."

"Yes... yes, that's me."

After a period of inconspicuous silence, resisting some kind of uneasiness in his heart, Wu Tiao Wuhui, who felt dizzy for a while, replied in a trembling voice.

She who is only surviving between life and death can hardly believe that she will see the light one day.Although strictly speaking, it is not recovery of sight, but seeing the existence of "abnormality" itself like soul vision.

——However, that has been her dream for a long time.She did see it, and she accepted the fact with pride.

It is also because of this that Wu Tiao Wuhui is quite clear that what appears in front of her eyes is a god or something...Anyway, it is absolutely impossible to be a human being.

"That's good. Only your own world is lonely. I can hear... the strong desire in your heart to go to the outside world."

Speaking his lines as if it was a routine, Mu Xiu reached out and took a look at the medical record hanging at the foot of the bed, and then raised the corners of his mouth to outline a strange arc.

"So... How about I come to fulfill your wish? Another body that can go to freedom, do you want it?"

It was still the same, using interrogative sentences, but the tone contained quite definite emotions, as if he had already known the answer before the woman made a decision.

Moreover, in his voice, there was a faint meaning that could not be denied.

But for some reason, Wu Tiao Wuhui had no resistance at all, so she accepted the possibility that the other party said, and she could feel that it was not a joke.

Maybe...the unknown existence that appeared in front of my eyes might really be a god who can listen to people's wishes and make them come true.

only--

"Why are you doing this? I obviously... it's useless."

The trembling woman asked like this. According to legend, the devil wants the soul of a person, and the gods will not grant anyone's wish for no reason, so she doesn't understand what price she will pay.

No problem, she'll take it at any price.

It's just that she thought she had nothing left.

"It's useless? It's not accurate, but you just pretend that I don't want someone's plan to succeed..."

Mu Xiu waved his hand casually, and then said again: "But if I say that this matter is worthless, you won't be at ease, right? So how about it—"

"I am going to give you a chance. In exchange for the fulfillment of that wish, I want to accept your afterlife."

To use a very old-fashioned phrase, that is, "I have an ominous premonition"——Wu Tiao Wu Hui really had such a feeling in his heart at the moment.

But she didn't feel scared, nor did she feel frightened. Instead, she felt as excited as if she had been chosen.

"...Is it really possible, let me go to another body that is free?"

She murmured like this, as if making a final confirmation.

"Yes, it's actually very simple for me, but for some reason, I can't let you be free in this world... unless you are willing to be bound by me, then you won't be bound by someone Keep using it."

Mu Xiu nodded and spoke.

"It's just that you want to be able to see the scenery outside the ward with your own will... If you are really bound by me, you will not be free. I will not lie about this matter." you."

If you want to be free, the price you pay is not being free. This is obviously a paradox of contradiction.

No matter what, Mu Xiu wouldn't make a fuss about these aspects. In any case, he would clearly explain the conditions and advantages and disadvantages he gave, and would not specifically set up language traps.

"Can't...in this world?" Wu Tiao Wu Hui repeated this sentence.

Therefore, there is only one option left.

That is to go to other worlds, so that one can realize one's dreamed wish... So, is he going to die?
No, the other party probably didn't mean that.

But even if it really meant that, so what?

She already knew the ending she would choose, even if it was a death that pierced her through like ash, like a sword, or like thunder, she wanted to get as close to it as possible.

"But there is also a price to pay. Maybe you will survive, but it is also possible to die... I can only promise you an absolutely healthy body that can move freely, and I will not interfere in any way. Everything is up to you Work hard on your own."

Mu Xiu said softly, at this moment his voice seemed to carry a bewitching magic power——

"Want to understand the meaning of life, want to really...live?"

"..."

"..."

After a brief silence, Wu Tiao Wu Hua nodded with her throat trembling.

Even she herself didn't realize that, as if she was praying to a god who extended a helping hand, her face showed an expression that could almost be equated with fanaticism.

The woman already understood what that meant, but even so she relied on that power.

Because she is weak, she cannot overcome this temptation.

For Wu Tiao Wuhui, as long as she can obtain a body that can move freely and can see the scenery outside the ward at her own will, then it doesn't matter what the price is.

Mu Xiu also nodded, and then raised his right hand.

After the white light flashed, what awaited her would be a time belonging to another unknown dimension.Even if it is just the plot world constructed by Mu Xiu in the quantum space, it is real to her.

Although it is not too kind to deceive the other party into being a reincarnation, it is indeed her wish.

And the price that Mu Xiu wants to charge is actually just an insurance. He wants to accept the other party's afterlife, which means that if she really dies accidentally, her soul will still be freed——

Mu Xiu's divine country has reserved a place for her soul in advance, which is an ideal country without any bad concepts.

A gust of wind blew in from the window, but the ward was empty, and the woman on the bed was no longer there.

Mu Xiu took a look at the medical record again, then shook his head.

This year, Wu Tiao Wuhui is 27 years old. Considering that she has been bedridden since she was a child, and has no relatives or reasons... I am afraid that her life has been so gloomy for the past 27 years.

Just to be alive is to do my best.

Whether it is the ignorant childhood, or the best years for girls, they are probably worthlessly wasted on this hospital bed.

"Perhaps, this is indeed a relief..."

Mu Xiu sighed speechlessly, and gently put the medical record back. His action this time has achieved his goal.The three chess pieces prepared by the magician Araya Soren, and the three sacrifices used in order to obtain the two rituals——

Asakami Fujino, Wujo Wue, Bai Junlio, now there is only the last one left.

In fact, if he hadn't considered using Araya Soren, he would have been more inclined to "cure the root cause" directly.He doesn't even need to do it himself, he just needs to tell Asakami Fujino, who has made great progress in magic practice recently.

Although Araya Muneren, as a front-end secret monk who has actually lived for more than 200 years, is terrifyingly strong, in general, it is far from comparable to Asakami Fujino who has just completed "from entry to mastery" of magic practice.

His ability as a magician is full of loopholes, but his ability to create enchantments is extraordinary, and can even be said to be one of the few in this world.

Soren Araya often "carries" a triple-level moving enchantment around her, and the complete state is able to reach the sixth level, with the ability to make things stand still.

If it is the "64th floor of the Hall of Blessings" enchantment he made, it is almost at the level of magic.It can be said that he has no inherent enchantment and artificially made it, and it is the embodiment of his own mental imagery and scenery.

——The residents who turned into dolls repeat the "reincarnation" of dying at night and being resurrected in the morning day after day.

Araya Soren's body can also be connected to the apartment, and she can instantly move to other places in the house, and even manipulate the space in the apartment. Of course, things close to magic such as space occlusion and space transfer can also be done.

However, after all, this is an approximate effect achieved with the help of external objects, rather than a real miracle. For example, when the apartment is destroyed, he will also be hurt, and he cannot stay in the apartment forever.

So if it was done mentally or unintentionally, Asakami Fujino's twisted magic eye's spiral force, which was exerted to the extreme, could break even a steel bridge abruptly. easy.

"Wait first...the chess pieces are gone, you have to do it too."

Mu Xiu looked out the window.

Then at the next moment, the door of the ward was pushed open again.

A man with a tall and muscular physique and a stern expression walked in from the outside, like a sage who challenges a proposition that can never be solved, his expression is full of shadows.

The next moment, his footsteps stopped, and he looked around suspiciously, as if he had sensed something, but he was not sure.

"..."

"..."

In the end, his stern gaze fixed on the hospital bed in the empty ward, and he remained silent, his expression seemed to become more depressed.
