After being forced to debut in metaphysics, I became popular

Yan Shixun lowered his eyes, looking at the child who was looking up at him with pure eyes.

He was very sure that he did not know the young Nan Tian.

Calculated based on his age, when Nan Tian was this age, he should still be at his parents' home, confined to a small square room, and had never met Li Chengyun at the market, and had traveled all over the world with him, seeing a vast world.

That being the case, why is the young Nan Tian here?

Yan Shixun didn't relax his vigilance at all, he bent over with a gentle attitude, and asked Xiao Nantian: "Then do you remember, why am I here?"

Yan Shixun has always been indifferent to others, everyone who is not familiar with him will be persuaded to retreat by that handsome face that is so sharp that it can cut others.

However, if he wanted to get close to someone in a planned way, it would be an easy task based on his understanding of strangers.

When he wanted to get close to someone, no one would have the heart to refuse such a handsome appearance.

Xiao Nantian is no exception.

Zhitong was obviously taken aback by Yan Shixun's aggressiveness when he just woke up, but when he saw Yan Shixun's smiling face, he hesitated again.

Xiao Nantian stirred and stirred with soft fingers, and then whispered: "Because big brother is a guest invited by grandma."

Yan Shixun was surprised when he heard this.

He didn't even know Nan Tian when he was a child, how could he know Nan Tian's grandmother?

But... there is only one situation that can make the impossible possible.

He is now in a dream.

Yan Shixun lowered his eyes, and he called casually, "Ye Li."

No one responded to him.

The familiar figure did not appear by his side immediately.

But Yan Shixun remembered very clearly that Ye Li once promised him that as long as he called his name, he would appear by his side.

Yan Shixun subconsciously believed what Ye Li said to him, and he didn't know when he got used to seeing Ye Li's way of getting along when he turned around.

With the current situation, after Yan Shixun ruled out the possibility of Ye Li deceiving him, there was only one guess left.

——Ye Li does not exist in this world, so he did not respond to his call.

Ye Li is the ghost and god in charge of death and judgment, and Yan Shixun even felt the unity of heaven and man in the coexistence of Ye Li and Dao under the help of Ye Li.

Therefore, he didn't think that Ye Li didn't appear here because Ye Li didn't hear his voice.

Yan Shixun only used this to rule out all other possibilities and confirmed the final guess.

——Here, it is not reality.

Before Yan Shixun himself realized it, his soul had already realized it one step ahead, chose to believe in Ye Li, and handed over his trust and back to Ye Li.

Even, use the other party as a benchmark to judge reality and falsehood.

In Xiao Nantian's curious eyes.Yan Shixun's expression was calm, as if the person who suddenly called Ye Li's name just now was not himself.

"Since I'm your grandma's guest, where is your grandma?"

Yan Shixun squatted down and asked Xiao Nantian with a light smile.

Xiao Nantian blinked and pointed to the outside of the room.

But when Yan Shixun straightened up and wanted to go out, Xiao Nantian suddenly grabbed Yan Shixun's trouser legs.

"Big brother, do you know where my little friend is?"

Xiao Nantian pursed her mouth and asked pitifully: "Grandma forbids me to go to them, but I haven't seen them or played with them for a long time."

Looking at Xiao Nantian's teary eyes, Yan Shixun suddenly remembered the ghost story that Nantian told everyone when he was at Wild Wolf Peak.

At that time, Nan Tian said that someone in the village was hanged in the woods, so grandma didn't allow him to go out, but the naughty he still sneaked out, but in the end, at the three-way intersection in the village, he saw a man who wanted to take him away. ghost.

So...was that time?

Because of Xiao Nantian's words, Yan Shixun instantly realized where he was.

I'm afraid that after I lost consciousness, because of Nantian's grandmother, I returned to Nancun, which was not destroyed decades ago.

After all, Nan Tian said that his hometown is around Nanming Mountain.

It was also because of this that Nan Tian knew the meaning of those fabrics, and was even missed by his master.

Yan Shixun straightened up slowly, looking out of the room that Xiao Nantian just pointed to with heavy eyes.

In the courtyard, an old man's temples were already silvery white, and every wrinkle on his face seemed to hide a story from the past.

And she was bending over and looking at herself.

It seemed that she had been waiting there since before she woke up, wanting to say something to him.

Whether it was Grandma Nan or Yan Shixun on the opposite side, neither of them was wearing summer clothes, and they looked so out of place under this sunny day.

Yan Shixun let go of Xiao Nantian and walked out with long legs.

"Nan Tian said, I am your guest."

Yan Shixun smiled lightly, looking up and down at Grandma Nan, there was no extra warmth in her eyes: "You didn't tell Nan Tian that his friends are all dead."

"But maybe, you can tell me."

Yan Shixun's smile gradually faded, his handsome face became serious and cold just like Grandma Nan's.

"Why did you send Nan Tian out of the village?"

"Grandma Nan, you knew about it back then, but you concealed Nantian's affairs. What exactly is it? Why did Nancun disappear after that, and became a taboo for Nantian's parents, and Nantian searched for it several times but failed."

"I don't think you brought me here as a 'guest', just to meet Nan Tian when I was a child."

"You brought me here in front of Shigong, you concealed the other party's investigation and wanted to tell me... what is it?"

Yan Shixun's eyes were deep, and he watched Grandma Nan without leaving her for a moment.

Calling Ye Li but the other party didn't show up, it was like a reverse anchor point, allowing Yan Shixun to confirm where he was.

And Grandma Nan, who Nan Tian said should have died long ago, and Nan Tian, ​​who was obviously at the wrong age, made Yan Shixun realize that it was not accidental that he appeared here.

But Grandma Nan did it on purpose.

What is it that a dead person wants to tell himself?

Yan Shixun already had a guess in his mind.

It's not the first time he has encountered something like this.

The dead ghosts complained and let themselves uphold justice.There are also souls whose obsessions have not been fulfilled, wanting to let themselves fulfill their last wish.

Whether it is money, family, or resentment, Yan Shixun has become accustomed to it in his many years of travel.

However, at this time, Grandma Nan still surprised Yan Shixun.

Grandma Nan didn't say anything, she just looked at Yan Shixun deeply, and then she turned sideways to get out of the way to the outside of the yard.

"Right and wrong, don't you know right away? Why ask me?"

A smile appeared on Grandma Nan's wrinkled face, her voice was hoarse, as if she hadn't used her vocal cords for decades.

"Even if I say so, are you someone who trusts others at will?"

Yan Shixun stared at Grandma Nan fixedly. After a long time, he stepped out of the threshold of the house with his long legs.

The moment she crossed Grandma Nan and stepped out of the yard, everything seemed to have changed.

When I was in the house, everything was harmonious and peaceful, but in an instant, the world changed color, and the wind and rain blew up.

Yan Shixun stood outside the courtyard gate, watching the torrential rain on the village road, and the village women running wildly past on the muddy ground.

She was holding a small swaddle in her hand, but she didn't feel sorry for the child at all, and let the heavy rain pour on the baby, and the cry of the child became weaker and weaker.

The village woman "Plop!" Knelt down in front of the three-way intersection at the end of the village road, held up the swaddling baby in her hand, and shouted: "God bless my eldest son, so that he can give birth to grandchildren!"

As she spoke, the village woman threw the swaddling clothes in her hands towards the Sansan intersection.

Yan Shixun subconsciously wanted to rush over to stop him, but was held back by the people next to him.

Grandma Nan appeared by his side at some point, looked up at him and said, "Young man, be patient."

A sarcastic and sad look appeared on her face: "Even if you want to save that child...it's too late, too late."

Grandma Nan didn't know whether to tell herself or to Yan Shixun, she just murmured: "In the beginning, who would have thought..."

Yan Shixun turned his gaze from Grandma Nan to the three-way intersection.

Then he saw that before the baby fell to the ground, it suddenly disappeared into the rain.

The village woman wept with joy, but Yan Shixun's eyes widened slightly in surprise.

"Thank God, thank God."

The village women bowed to Yumu again and again: "You must bless my family to give birth to a golden grandson."

The village woman didn't seem to see Yan Shixun. When she ran past Grandma Nan's house, she didn't notice the two people standing in front of the door.

But after the village woman left, Yan Shixun saw that it was at a three-way intersection.A figure slowly emerged.

The rain poured down avoiding that figure, and that figure was holding a swaddling baby, and his eyes were gentle, but not as deep as his eyes.

"Your birth was a mistake."

The man looked at the baby in his arms with compassion, and said softly, "But why do you have to endure such suffering? It is hard to be born into this world, but God is not fair, it still makes you endure such treatment .”

The man stretched out his hand and gently swaddled the baby.

However, the next moment, his hand was pinching the baby's neck.Immediately, there was a slight sound of "click!"

The baby hung limply on his arms.

"Starting with you... I will create a world without pain for all life."

The figure said softly: "After you, there will be no more pain in everyone's life, only joy."

Yan Shixun looked at the other party in horror, never expecting that the other party would do such a thing.

But gradually, he suddenly realized one thing.

——That face looks like that of a young master.

If Nan Tian went back decades at this point in the dream, then Master...

Yan Shixun's eyes were gloomy, and he turned to look at Grandma Nan beside him: "Grandma, is this what you asked me to see?"

"You want to tell me... all the beginnings are with Master?"

Grandma Nan sighed, her original stern expression softened, and her eyes were filled with sadness: "All sins originated from Nancun."

"Nancun, which was supposed to guard the border, instead handed over its thousand-year heritage to others, and the so-called gods took advantage of it to steal the world."

Grandma Nan's eyes were gloomy: "I have no power to stop it. But..."

"Under the Dao, how should the common people be saved?"

"As the witch of Nancun, I... am ashamed of the way of heaven."

Grandma Nan raised her head and sighed, her expression was such grief and indignation that Yan Shixun had never seen before.

And in the rain, the young master stood at the intersection of the three forks, suddenly raised his eyes in his swaddling clothes, and looked at the place where Yan Shixun was standing.

Yan Shixun understood the other party's mouth shape.

Master is saying: It's useless.The sorceress is dead, and there is no one who can hinder me, but ants struggling.

The world is about to fall, and what can you... do?

After Grandma Nan's words fell, the scene in front of Yan Shixun suddenly turned upside down.

When Yan Shixun opened his eyes again, Grandma Nan was no longer around.

He replaced the perspective of the previous master, standing at the three-way intersection, watching the villagers go back and forth to cultivate, and everything seemed to be so harmonious.

However, when night fell, a village woman came forward with her baby in her arms and threw the baby girl at the intersection.

once, twice...

Not only baby girls, but also young women with big bellies, crying and kneeling at three-way intersections, begging to give birth to sons.

She really couldn't bear to see her child thrown out by her mother-in-law to fend for herself.

And Yan Shixun couldn't move at all, just like a statue, watching helplessly as the baby was thrown at the three-way intersection, and then died.

But the young child doesn't even have a name, and no messenger will come to meet it and leave.

Only that familiar figure—the young master appeared at the intersection of the three forks, and gently guided the wandering soul into the mountain.

In the end, even the pregnant woman died due to dystocia, and her still warm body was thrown at the three-way intersection.

——Her mother-in-law felt that it was a bad omen that she gave birth to six girls before giving birth to a boy.Only by letting her soul wander at the three-fork intersection and not be reincarnated, will there be no more daughters-in-law who can't give birth to boys marry sons.

Yan Shixun stared helplessly at the dead body beneath his feet, his eyes were tearing apart but he couldn't break free from the spot.

And a pair of hands wrapped in silver-white sleeves stretched out, gently hugging the corpse of the young pregnant woman.

Master gently picked up the corpse, turned around and looked at Yan Shixun gently.

With a compassionate smile in his eyes, he asked Yan Shixun, "What do you think of this kind of world?"

"The god said that there is no salvation in the world."

"But I'm different."

Master said: "I said, life is gentle and does not need pain."

"I want to remove all painful things from the lives of the world. Since there are only a few hundred years, why do we have to go through such painful things?"

"Birth, old age, sickness and death, parting from love, if you can't ask for it, why bother to be obsessed with it."

The master looked at the dead body in his arms, and sighed softly: "Isn't their life worthy of being treated tenderly?"

"I just... want no more pain in the world, and want everyone to live happily until death."

The downpour drenched Yan Shixun's clothes, and the rain ran down his hair and on his cheeks.

He remembered that at this point in time, the underworld had already collapsed, and King Hades died.

And the only god in existence that governs death...

Only Ye Li was left.

All the fragments of thinking come together in one place, and the doubts are easily resolved.

Yan Shixun suddenly realized that the "ghost year" with many dead souls that year was not Lord Yama's tour of the world.

It is Yeli, who walks in the world and judges sins.

The "Yan Wang Ye" and "God" that Nan Tian and Master said refer to...

It's Yeli.
