"Life! Such a heavy price?"

The bearded man opened his mouth and dropped a half-burned cigarette to the ground.

He suddenly felt guilty. After all, the talisman was obtained by Chen Huaian with his life, and he spent 100,000 to buy it?

At that time, Chen Huaian should not know the value of the talisman.

It seems that he was deliberately deceiving.

"Then how did you know that the price was life? I remember that you didn't know that the talisman could be used before?"

Chen Huaian had prepared the words long ago, and said without leaking a single word: "I really didn't know before, as for how I determined that the price was life..." He lifted up his trouser legs to show the dense osteosarcoma to the bearded man.

"To be honest, I am a terminal cancer patient, but I was in the middle stage a week ago."

The bearded man looked at the osteosarcoma on Chen Huaian's leg and said in confusion: "So, because you exchanged for the talisman, your cancer has worsened?"

"Yes, the doctor said that the speed of my cancer cell spread is unprecedented in my life, and the cancer worsened just after I exchanged for the talisman."

"Then, how long can you live?"

"Who knows?" Chen Huaian smiled: "If you die slowly, you will die in half a year, and if you die quickly, you will die in a month."

The bearded man was confused, and it was hard to imagine that the handsome guy in front of him with a sunny smile was already a dying man.

But the osteosarcoma on his leg told him that this was true.

This young man was indeed in the terminal stage of cancer and would not live long.

'I really deserve to die! '

He slapped himself hard in his heart.

As the director of the Demon Slaying Department of Tianfu District, he actually deceived a terminal cancer patient and swindled such a precious talisman for only 100,000 yuan! Not to mention that he felt guilty, if the demon slayers in other districts knew about this, wouldn't they kill him behind his back? !

"Brother Huai'an, I'm sorry."

In order to make his conscience go away, the bearded man quickly apologized to Chen Huai'an.

"Brother, I shouldn't have coaxed you to take a talisman away before."

"Oh, it's okay~" Chen Huai'an waved his hand: "Don't I have more talismans here? I'm already terminally ill and dying, so it doesn't make any difference if I consume some more life."

The bearded man looked at Chen Huai'an in silence, feeling even more uncomfortable.

"I'll transfer another 100,000 to you!"

"Okay." Chen Huai'an opened his phone and showed the payment code at lightning speed.

Bearded man: "..."

After transferring the money, the atmosphere between the two of them was obviously more sincere.

"Brother Huai'an, what are your plans for the future?"

"Plans..." Chen Huai'an and the bearded man looked at the traffic together. His plan was actually to continue making money to charge the game. Before he knew that his ‘electronic girlfriend’ was a companion spirit, he was willing to recharge. Now that he knows, he is even more willing to recharge. What if one day the game gives him an item that can cure his cancer?

Also, is the world in this game real?

If this game is fake, why is his electronic girlfriend so vivid?

But if this game is a real world, wouldn’t the civilization level of that world have already blown away the earth? After all, the power of a common thunder and fire talisman is so terrifying. What if it is an immortal talisman? There are other more advanced talismans. Wouldn’t any one of them be as powerful as a missile or even a nuclear bomb? !

This makes even more sense.

It is obviously unreasonable that the three-dimensional world is superior to the two-dimensional world.

Secondly, this world also has the so-called main quest, the so-called plot, and the choice of dialogue.

How can he control the direction of a real world?

If he was really that powerful, he would have become an immortal by now.

No matter from which angle you look at it, the Cangyun Realm is more like a game world.

Therefore, Chen Huaian determined that the electronic girlfriend game in his mobile phone was the "companion spirit" mentioned by the bearded man.

As for whether the world of cultivation in the electronic girlfriend was real, he still maintained a skeptical attitude.

As the saying goes, seeing is believing.

Of course, he hoped that Li Qingran was real.

But sometimes it is not a good thing to hold too much hope.

That means that once the reality is contrary to expectations, a heavy mental price must be paid.

Seeing Chen Huaian silent, the bearded man thought that Chen Huaian was confused about where to go, but he understood this very well. Many resuscitators would be at a loss when facing this problem, so he patted Chen Huaian on the shoulder:

"The world will become more and more chaotic, and everything we protect will be broken at any time."

On the sidewalk, elementary school students who had just finished school held hands and sang nursery rhymes.

On the bench in the park, a couple hugged and kissed passionately.

The sun followed the old man carrying a basket of vegetables, and the takeaway boy stopped the car helplessly looking at the slow old man.

Chen Huaian looked at all this in front of him, and the bearded man's voice sounded in his ears:

"Brother Huaian, why don't you join the Demon Slayer Division? I can help you contact some resuscitators with treatment abilities to see if your cancer problem can be solved. The current Demon Slayer Division is different from before. Do you know the breathing method? It is similar to the exercises in novels, which can absorb the spiritual energy between heaven and earth for its own use. Currently, only our Demon Slayer Division has it."

"Of course, from my point of view, I don't want you to join the Demon Slayer Division for these benefits. I hope you join for the mission!"

"The mission of protecting our homeland, protecting mankind, and protecting a peaceful life!"

After the bearded man finished speaking, he glanced at Chen Huaian with his peripheral vision.

This set of rhetoric is the training skills of the Demon Slayer Division.

Generally, at this time, as long as the resuscitator listens to it, his face will be a little moved.

Especially young people like Chen Huaian, they love to hear such passionate words.

However...

The bearded man found that Chen Huaian had no expression on his face!!!

"Thank you for saying these words to me, and thank you for your invitation."

Chen Huaian scratched his head, still smiling, but the words he said were not very funny.

"How should I put it? Do you know? My parents died in a forest fire, and they should have received 200,000 yuan in compensation, but I only got 20,000 yuan due to various strange reasons.

I have had a hard time these years. When I thought I could get through it after going to college and graduating, I was diagnosed with advanced cancer. The hospital only asked me if I had insurance and money. If I didn't, I had to raise money first, otherwise I wouldn't be treated.

My girlfriend cheated on me and kicked me out when she found out I had cancer..."

The bearded man looked at the boy bathing in the sun and said with difficulty: "Do you think the world is unfair? So..."

"No, I think the world is fair." Chen Huaian shook his head: "It is reasonable to wait for death if you don't have money to treat the disease. It is also normal that the compensation cannot be paid for various reasons. Isn't it understandable that the boyfriend has cancer and the girlfriend runs away?"

"What about you?"

"I just feel that the world didn't embrace me when I was most desperate.

If I turn around and embrace the world right now, I will be disgusted."

Chen Huaian looked at the bearded man, and the light in his eyes flickered.

The bearded man felt that the boy sitting in the sun seemed to exude a dead silence all over his body.

"Uncle, you are protecting your world. But my world is not worth protecting yet."

At the end of the street, Chen Huaian dragged his suitcase and walked away.

He turned back and waved goodbye with a smile, then turned around and blended into the crowd like the crowd.

The bearded man sat silently on the steps, smoking one cigarette after another, and the words left by Chen Huaian when he left seemed to echo in his ears.

"I will not join the Demon Slayer Division. At least now I can't find a reason to join the Demon Slayer Division, nor can I see the mission you mentioned. But you can find me if you need help, although I don't know if I can help."

The red light turned green.

The bearded man put out his cigarette and blended into the crowd.

He didn't go back to the Demon Slayer Division, he just wanted to walk around.

See the people who live under the same sky but exist in different worlds.
