How long did it take after that?

I don't want to eat, drink water, look out of the window, and even breathing has become a superfluous behavior.

It's not that I haven't thought of suicide, it's just that I, like ordinary people, cannot overcome my desire to survive.So I simply didn't want to think about anything, and let my body's instincts take over.

At this time, I couldn't help but sigh, death is the most loyal thing in this world, every time I praise it, it will be a little closer to me.

I was locked in this room with nothing, and it would be inappropriate to say nothing.Here is a small room like a storage room. There is a water dispenser that is powered on. Neither did people.

Of course, there are no toilets either.

However, due to various reasons, my metabolism has dropped to the lowest level, so far I have not had such troubles.It's better to say... I'm so hungry that I don't even have the strength to stand up.

Although I don't want to commit suicide, it's not bad to die like this.

The mobile phone is not with me, and the bank card I hold tightly is also used for my treatment at the last moment.The door to the storage room is still locked, and I don't even know why I was locked here.

However, I still want to thank Teacher Ye Cheng.

In the enchantment of that hospital, I hugged the cold body of Bai Anshun as if my brain had been disconnected.Then Teacher Ye Cheng appeared from nowhere and did something.

When he regained his senses, he was already holding my shirt jacket with a serious face, and then pushed me hard here.

——"Go in and reflect on it for me!"

The door was locked, and then there was a long period of introspection.

Although I don't know what it's asking me to reflect on, I don't think Ye Cheng is asking me to reflect on the relationship between myself and Bai Anshun.

However, it was no longer possible to think about anything else.

As if it was etched on the retina, as soon as you close your eyes, you can see Bai Anshun's dead appearance.

Ah ah ah ah ah……! !

I don't know whether I was yelling in my heart or really yelling out. Although the electric light was left in the storage room very humanely, I still felt the laxity of my self-boundary.

I was lying on the cold floor, and my whole body seemed to be unable to move at all. Even though the force on my whole body had been evened out to the maximum, I could still feel the pressure of the floor.It's like it's not the floor, but the guillotine that fell on him.

"Everything is my fault, everything is my fault, no matter what the fault is, it is all my fault. Whether the root cause is mine or not, I will admit it all, please... let it go Pass me, okay?"

I don't know if I spoke out or prayed to the dead person in my heart, but what is letting go?What is forgiveness?If you end your life like this, can you ask for forgiveness from the other party?

He kept asking himself with self-blame, but there was no answer in the storage room.There were only Bai Anshun's cry for help before he died, the cold touch in his hands and his lingering face that kept echoing in my ears.

Just when all my human brain cells were about to be swallowed up by the virus of guilt, the door of the storage room finally opened with a creak.

"Wow...it smells so bad..."

Teacher Ye Cheng, who poked his head in, covered his nose and said with disgust.

"Get up, if this continues, you will die."

I looked indifferently at the dazzling light outside the crack of the door, this reaction seemed to anger Ye Cheng, he kicked me in the side with his foot.

Maybe it was because of my weakness, or maybe it was because he struck really hard, but the pain made me almost vomit, so I got up from the ground helplessly and followed Ye Cheng out of the storage room.

Then, after being forcibly stuffed with unknown nutritional medicine, Ye Cheng asked me to turn my back to take off my clothes.

Because I already felt that nothing mattered, so I did it without hesitation.

Then, there was a bone-piercing pain on the back, as if someone had directly twisted into the nerves, it went straight to the whole body and finally made the brain tremble.

"How is it? Have you regained the feeling of being alive?"

After Ye Cheng said that, I grinned and turned around, wondering what had been done to me.But Ye Cheng's hands could only be seen covered with blood, a mixture of bright red and dark red.

"How did you reflect on your mistakes?"

When Ye Cheng asked, I shook my head, expressing that I hadn't thought of anything.Ye Cheng didn't seem angry, and pulled me to the closet in the living room.

Let the blood drip on the floor, evaporate and disappear like drops of water falling on the stove - it must be some kind of self-cleaning magic, this should be Ye Cheng's home.

The French windows in the living room reflected the tragedy of my back. Like a deformed parasite, there were two bad bumps on my back. The blood vessels, muscles and skin were wrongly connected together. Covered by dark red blood scabs, bright red liquid was flowing from the part that had just been torn apart by the leaf.

Ah... that's right... So that's the case.

I remembered why I lost consciousness after Ye Cheng arrived, because at that time, Ye Cheng cut off the almost out-of-control wings behind me with a lightsaber like a Japanese sword, and the pain overwhelmed me like a stormy wave consciousness.

"This is the first mistake to reflect on."

While Ye Cheng was talking, he stretched out his hand to my back again. I trembled instinctively because I was afraid of the pain, but what I expected didn't come.

"When I taught you magic, I should have taught you the "Three Laws of Impossibility"?"

"Yes……"

People cannot be resurrected after death, the sky does not belong to humans, and time cannot be turned back.

"Although some old magic books and ancient books did write about how to let humans fly. However, starting from a certain point in time, the New God banned all "miracles of flying" that could be imposed on humans. Of course, Hovering and gliding are another matter. What is important is that in the current mysticism system, flying is regarded as an important basic prohibition that constitutes the entire system. Well...our faction does not necessarily have to abide by it. However, the problem is that you have not reached the point where you can use the power of a god to switch belief systems at will. This is the result of using magic that ignores the rules and crosses eras and belief systems~”

Ye Cheng's hand was gently placed on my back, and the bulge on my back in the mirror was being softened bit by bit, and the muscles, bones, flesh and blood were harmoniously returned together like clay.

"Fortunately, I didn't cause you any mental harm this time, otherwise I don't know if I could have saved you."

There was a constant, subtle touch between pain and itching on the back, and the bad wounds almost disappeared in an instant, but there was still a not-so-light scar from the shoulder blade to the middle.

"There is no other way... After all, this is the price you pay for fooling the gods." Ye Cheng raised his hands and looked behind me, smiling as if admiring the masterpiece he had created, "But for men, scars It's a medal, isn't it?"

"..."

"About your error on the second point."

Ye Cheng pulled out the bank card that I had been clutching tightly from my hand.

"It's not wrong to keep holding on to this, but the balance is already empty, right?"

In Teacher Ye Cheng's eyes, my card should have a worthless 0 at the moment.

"Even if you risk your life, you must never let yourself go bankrupt. Did I say that?"

"Yes……"

"Although life is a very important thing, money is more important than life. Even if life is dying, as long as you don't really die, you can use money to continue your life," Mr. Ye Cheng simulated with his mouth like an arcade machine. A voice like a game continuation said, "But if you don't have money, even if you are alive, you are just someone else's slave."

"However, if life is gone..."

"Tsk tsk, human life has many forms, and it is not limited to the unity of self and others. Isn't there such a person? Even after death, they are said to be "alive in the heart forever". Their influence is even Even after death, it still lasted for nearly a hundred to a thousand years, and the soul penetrated into the entire "system" like mistletoe, whether it was the fear of himself, or the fear of the "system". Life is not necessarily a matter of self-perception. For single-celled organisms, there may be no sense of being alive at all, but the interaction with the outside world can be used as the only criterion for life. Therefore, those guys are always alive Yeah, with yours and mine and other people's bodies."

"but……"

Death is death, and people cannot be resurrected after death. This is one of the rules that even those who possess magic and go against common sense cannot violate it.

It's not that I can't understand what Teacher Ye Cheng said, it's just that for me personally, some things cannot go back once they are changed.

For example, Bai Anshun.

"Um?"

Ye Cheng narrowed his eyes.

"nothing……"

"So, let's talk about your third mistake."

Ye Cheng poured me a glass of water, although I'm not thirsty at all, I still drank it.The warm liquid moistened the throat and gradually recovered my body functions. As a direct result, I felt hungry again.

"You gave my phone to my brother, right?"

younger brother……?

I was a little confused because the teacher was talking about something strange, and then it suddenly occurred to me that I seemed to have passed the phone to someone.

"Teacher Ye Yue...is your younger brother?"

"That's true, but for various reasons, you made the worst choice."

It is true that I have also classified Ye Yue as one of the people who should never mention Ye Cheng to him, but in that case there is no way at all.

"That guy can't die..."

"...Is it because he is the same as Teacher Ye Cheng?"

"No, no, it's too rude to say that, but I'm still a human anyway. So if I don't have money, it's possible to die. But that guy is different. His way of existence is the exact opposite of ours. The self that constitutes him and then emerges."

——"I'm probably dead..."

I still remember what Teacher Ye Yue said while coughing up blood.

"His existence was created to allow the power in his body to be understood by the world. In other words, it is like a virtual image in a mirror. No matter how powerful the power is, it can only break the mirror. Put it there for a while If time doesn't matter, it will be restored again. Well, even the funeral song can't erase its existence. Because if that guy is really erased, then the funeral song as the basis of human existence will disappear gone."

Ye Cheng said something that I couldn't understand at all to his younger brother unceremoniously, but the word "funeral song" caught my attention.Ye Yue also seemed to have mentioned this name to me, "Funeral Song Containment Failed", and he said that it was enough for me to tell any member of the "meaningless organization".

However, "Funeral Song" is indeed...

"Xia Yushi...she..."

"Oh, so you called her by that name~your little girlfriend~" Ye Cheng said in an unexpectedly frivolous tone, "but she really made a big fuss this time."

Needless to say, I also know what making a fuss is. This has gone beyond the scope of farce. After all, someone has already...

"But for the funeral song, she probably doesn't care at all. She herself is also the kind of person who lives in the system, so her understanding of the concept of life and death is different from that of ordinary people. When I saw her, You are the only one left in her eyes. To be honest, it would not be surprising for her to kill people all over the world in that situation.”

Ye Cheng's tone was similar to Xia Yushi's tone when he confessed to me at the time, as if letting humans go extinct from this planet for people like me is like killing all the cockroaches to make your home comfortable Same thing for granted.

"But...is it really possible to kill all human beings in the world for the sake of one's own feelings? It's ridiculous no matter where this kind of thing happens."

"No, no, it seems that you still don't understand the meaning of human existence in this world." Ye Cheng sighed, "Compared with the fact that you fell in love, the demise of human beings should actually be insignificant That's right. Do you think that Miss Funeral Song just killed her rival in love—I mean Bai Anshun is easier to forgive than killing all human beings?"

No, that is impossible!

I almost made a decisive decision, but immediately thought that this was because I stood in my position.

For those innocent people who have no intersection with me, Bai Anshun, and C University, Bai Anshun's death is not a problem at all.So of course the latter is more unforgivable - because the latter involves the innocent self.

"But in fact, the two are the same~ If the scale of observation is enlarged to the scale of the universe, the death of one person on the earth and the ups and downs of all people on the earth are just the structure of stardust changing from one to the other. It’s just another one. Besides, it’s not really extinct—at least the two of you are still there, so it won’t even cause a qualitative change. However, the love affair between you bears the meaning of the lives of 70 billion people. If something like "meaning" has density, it's obvious that the relationship between you has more meaning, right?"

This is really the meaning of the density surpassing the black hole.

"In the eyes of the gods, if it's just an ordinary love between two people, it's just an ordinary love drama that fills the streets. But if the end of human extinction occurs because of the love between two people. That's it. If that’s the case, your love will probably rise to the level of Romeo and Juliet... no, it’s probably at the level of Adam and Eve. In this case, falling in love itself is enough to constitute the value and meaning equal to the lives of 70 billion people.”

In other words, the meaning is not the weight placed on the balance, but the liquid that is injected into the U-shaped tube, and the meaning is no longer its original weight at the moment of occurrence?

Although I understand Ye Cheng's metaphor, it still doesn't mean that I can accept it.

"It's impossible for me to bear such feelings. I'm just... an ordinary person."

"Ordinary people..." Ye Cheng looked at me with strange eyes, which seemed to be full of contempt and sympathy at the same time, "It is because you think so that you and Bai Anshun ended in tragedy..."

Just hearing his name, my heart couldn't beat as if it was pinched by someone.

"Are you hungry?"

Ye Cheng seemed to have said everything he wanted to say, and didn't explain what I was curious about, but it wasn't his obligation.

I nodded, and he took out a box of chocolates from the storage compartment of the coffee table in the living room, and then handed me a universal meal card on campus.

"That's all I have left here. In short, go back and rest for a while. The details... Tomorrow, we will start special training here."

"Teacher... I have no point in continuing to practice here anymore."

Originally, the reason why I recognized Ye Cheng as a teacher was just to be able to walk side by side with that person one day, but now I have lost such an opportunity forever.

"What are you talking about~ I didn't save you with good intentions~ You are my important student now, even if you don't want to, I will let you continue. And you don't even have a penny on you now Are you done? If you count the debts in the bank..."

Am I just someone else's slave now?

Ye Cheng didn't say that directly, it seemed to take care of my face.

"I understand."

"Well, it's good that you can understand."

Smiling like a profiteer, Ye Cheng pushed me out of his room.

"See you tomorrow~"
