Chapter 130: World Changes
Chapter 130: World Changes
On the way back, Jiang Luo couldn’t believe that it was over.
The tigerish, top-heavy, all-too-simple ending just makes Jiang Luo feel extraordinarily unrealistic.
But that was not the case with Lian Qiang and his brothers, who were close to tears of joy and headaches.
The three returned to the Chi family home and hurried off to find Lian Xue and Li Xiao.
Before they reached the place, they saw Lian Xue and the two of them rushing over, and their eyes lit up when they saw Jiang Luo, “Brother!”
Jiang Luo said, “Go to the wigwam and talk.”
They hid in the cave of the rockery and when they learned from Jiang Luo that they had killed the evil spirits and could get out, Lian Xue was overjoyed, “So in five hours we’ll be able to leave?”
Jiang Luo nodded, “Right.”
Everyone was delighted, with a long-lost look of relaxation on their faces. But Lian Xue smiled for a moment and then suddenly looked at Jiang Luo with some hesitation, “Brother, aren’t you happy?”
“Of course I’m happy to be able to leave the Mirror World,” Jiang Luo said with a faint smile, “but I always felt something was wrong.”
Lian Xue : “What’s wrong?”
Jiang Luo looked at the black robe in his hand, “A little too easy.”
“But it’s good to get out of here,” Lian Xue coughed lowly, her face a little pale with blood loss as her joy faded, “I’m restless here day and night, and I caught a cold last night, and today I have a terrible headache.”
Jiang Luo thought Lian Xue was really not cold, “You had a bit of a fever when you were at the villa. Such physical fitness is not good, when you go out, Lian Xue , you’d better exercise more.”
Lian Xue’s eyes curled up, “I thought so too, Brother.”
“So after we leave this world, will we never come in again?” Li Xiao asked with trepidation.
Lian Qiang said cheerfully, “Of course, this mirror world is collapsing and we will never come back into this fucked up world again.”
Li Xiao, completely relieved, murmured, “Great, great ……”
Outside the wigwam.
In the darkness where no one is looking.
Chi You stood among them, listening to the words coming from inside the cave, with an obscure expression.
The world in the mirror, crumbling and leaving.
Chi You is a smart man and he quickly understood what this meant.
This world, which was unmistakably real in his consciousness, turned out to be the world of mirrors they spoke of.
He knew what the world in the mirror meant, and even more so because he knew it, he would be even more shocked.
But Chi You quickly calmed down and took in the shocking news with a speed that surprised himself.
One by one, the wrong things that I had perceived in the past came to the surface, and at that moment they all became evidence that this world was only a false one. Chi You looked up and looked at the sky.
To his eyes, this sky still looked grey and normal, with no sign of collapse.
Intense resentment and anger suddenly rose up in him.
He is a man of this false world of mirrors, but Jiang Luo is leaving it.
After five hours.
Chi You’s head is bowed and behind him a black mist slowly fills the room, wrapping around Chi You like an abyss behind his back.
The ghost lines start to climb and crawl up to the side of Chi You’s ear.
Chi You’s eyes grew darker and darker, his face obliterated of all expression, the black mist wrapped around him from head to toe, making the young man look as handsome and indifferent as a god, and as gruesome and hideous as an evil spirit.
Suddenly, there was a flash in his eyes.
It was as if someone was asking in his ear, “What do you want to do?”
“I want ……” Chi You’s voice was inaudibly low, “to keep him.”
Leave Jiang Luo, for good, in my world.
The light in Chi You’s eyes grew brighter and brighter, and as if he heard something in reply, he suddenly nodded his head and gave a heart-stopping smile.
“Ah, what a great way to go.”
“Then let’s do it.”

Jiang Luo came out of the rockery and on his way back, he and Lian Xue met Chi You standing on the bridge looking at the lake.
Chi You is absorbed in feeding the fish, the breeze blowing past him and the years are quiet.
It was only in the darkness that his movements became much stranger.
Who will come and feed the fish at night?
After hearing the voice, Chi You turned back and gave a gentle smile towards Jiang Luo, “Young Master Jiang, you’re back?”
Jiang Luo couldn’t quite make out his expression in the hazy night, but Chi You said this as if he was waiting for Jiang Luo specifically. Jiang Luo walked to the bridge and raised his eyebrows, “Young Master Chi, are you waiting for me?”
Chi You nodded good-naturedly and threw the last of the fish food down the lake, wiping his hands with his handkerchief before leading Jiang Luo back, “It’s late at night, we should rest.”
Lian Xue, who had been left under the bridge, looked at each other. The time flow in the mirror world had become faster, but the collapse had not. There were still five hours to go, so they might as well go back and rest, maybe they would get up overnight and they would already be out.
Lian Xue said, “Come on, let’s go back to bed too.”
Lian Qiang muttered, “I feel like I just woke up, why am I going to bed again, I’m still not sleepy at all.”
He said that, but he turned around and walked back. Li Xiao followed between them, she was the most timid, and even though there were people in front of her and behind her, she still had a creepy, hairy feeling, like there were a million eyes staring at them in the dark.
Li Xiao held her hands to her chest and hunched her shoulders, her eyes kept looking around, Yu Guang suddenly glanced into the lake, “What’s that?”
The other three turned their heads and followed Li Xiao’s line of sight to see what appeared to be one glowing white object after another floating on the cold glowing lake.
Lian Bing was standing at the end of the line, he was curious and went to the lake to take a look, he was immediately hit by the fishy smell and covered his nose, “Ew, it’s all a dead fish.”
“Dead fish?” Lian Xue quickly walked over to take a look, only to see floating on the surface of the lake, indeed, a fish with its belly turned over.
The fish’s eyes were white and Lian Xue looked a little worse for wear. The fish food Chi You had just spilled flashed through her mind and she covered her mouth and nose and said, “Let’s go first.”
As soon as the words left their mouths, Lian Xue and Lian Bing heard the sound of “gurgling, gurgling” water.
And where is the sound of water coming from?
“Gurgle, gurgle,” the sound came closer.
Lian Bing looked down at the lake around his feet, his heart a little uneasy, he took two steps back, “Sister, we ……”
Before he could finish his sentence, a tongue suddenly stuck out of the water and wrapped itself violently around Lian Bing’s foot, pulling him into the water with force.
Lian Bing cried out twice in misery, “Sister save me!”
“Brother!” Lian Xue pulled on his hands, but the force of what was pulling Lian Bing was so strong that it almost pulled Lian Xue down with it. Lian Xue looked into the lake to see what was pulling Lian Bing.
But all she could see was dark water.
No, that’s not right, can the water be so dark?
Gritting her teeth, Lian Xue tugged at Lian Bing and rubbed her toes against the water. The water was so black because it was covered with hair like this.
Looking at so much hair was like having your stomach stuffed with it too, a gagging sensation emanated from your throat, but the next moment Lian Xue was met with a pair of sinister eyes underneath it.
Lian Xue’s heart trembled when, in the next instant, heads suddenly sprang up from the water. The heads were blue and white, topped with bottomless hair, each looking at them greedily.
Lian Xue’s face turned pale and she shouted, “Lian Qiang, Li Xiao! Come and help!”
Instead, she heard Li Xiao’s screams.
Lian Xue turned his head to look back and saw a number of chained corpses hanging from a tree, their ghastly white faces wearing wry smiles as the wind swayed and swayed, encircling Lian Qiang and Li Xiao.
Farther away, a mist had formed, and in the mist there seemed to be countless figures approaching them, and Lian Xue knew that they were all ghosts!
A great fear surrounded her.
What is wrong with the world, really?
*
In the police station guardhouse.
Chi Tian was awakened by a sharp pain and tried to open his mouth, only to have it taste fishy and he remembered that his tongue had been bitten off by himself.
He touched his mouth in fear and realised that his left arm still hurt. Chi Tian thought of Chi You, the bastard, and suddenly hatred twisted his expression.
“Uhhhhhhh!” He screamed desperately, I’m going to kill him!
A police officer came to the door, the officer wearing a hat, his face covered by shadows, he stood deadpan and said in a flat tone, ” Chi Tian, your mother is bringing a visitor.”
Chi Tian looked up with joy to see two people coming through the door.
His mother looked at him with tearful eyes, and by her side was a masked woman in a cheongsam with a beautiful figure.
The officer opened the door and let the two women walk in, then left the place, leaving Chi Tian alone.
Chi Tian thought the officer was quite sensible, so he pulled his mother into a hurry and “mumbled” for a long time, telling her to get him back!
His mother nodded repeatedly, as if she understood what he meant. That’s when Chi Tian put his head down and looked at the woman beside his mother.
The woman’s skin was as white as death and she just looked icy cold. She didn’t say a word and stood rather virtuously, her long, thin, straight legs peeking out from the side of her cheongsam, making Chi Tian’s eyes glaze over.
My mother said, “Tian, this is the daughter-in-law I found for you, let her serve you well.
After saying this, Chi Tian’s mother left the cell.
Chi Tian felt that his mother really understood him, and he smiled so much that the pain in his body didn’t seem to hurt as much. Chi Tian wanted to talk to the woman and flirt with her, but he couldn’t speak now, and she didn’t move at all.
Chi Tian didn’t bother, he took the woman straight to the bed and jumped on top of her.
The woman was cold, and Chi Tian shivered. Chi Tian shivered and tugged sharply at the woman’s clothes, but she did not move at all, like an unresponsive doll.
