Yin Yang Lantern Man

Chapter 215 Finding the True Self

There are other channels.

Chen Ning'an stepped through the door, and almost at the same moment, the talisman of the god of joy behind him was completely exhausted.

"pat..."

As the wooden talisman fell, the relief and satisfaction on Chen Ning'an's face slowly stiffened.

The corners of his mouth rose slightly, trying to maintain his previous mentality, but his expression became colder and colder, and he found that there was no way for him to go back to the past. That self was so unfamiliar.

He was stunned for a moment, then stretched out his fingers and pulled the corners of his mouth up again.

The stiff smile is more disgusting than a demon.

"Ugh……"

A deep sigh escaped from his mouth, and Chen Ning'an fell to the ground and began to recall every detail of the past two or three days.

He was stunned for a long time, and stayed there for a long time, until the lantern in his hand burned, and he got used to holding the lantern.

The heat from the flames was like the scorching sun, and he suddenly laughed.

“Haha, hahahaha…”

"what!"

The laughter turned into roars, and gradually evolved into madness!

"Die! Die to me!"

Chen Ning'an was running here frantically. He didn't care about anything around him. His spirit had long been replaced by pain.

A dark figure crawled out from the abyss and spread over everything.

There was a blinding thunderbolt hanging from the sky, cold and merciless.

There were many illusions, but he couldn't see them. After an unknown amount of time, Chen Ning'an suddenly stopped.

His chest was still, and he was unusually clear-headed and silent, as if he had not been the one to do what he had done before.

His numb senses returned and he heard a sound ahead.

"Is it stable?"

It was hard to tell whether the voice was male or female, and Chen Ning'an frowned slightly.

"Who are you? Is this the end of the trail?"

He couldn't see, and asked, and at the same time he had an idea and planned to take action.

"I advise you not to be too rash if you can't see it."

The voice saw through Chen Ningan's thoughts and warned him directly:
"You are too crazy now. You do things regardless of the cost. You are on the verge of collapse."

"Those who swim will eventually drown in the sea. You trust too much in what you know."

Chen Ning'an couldn't see it, the voice became vague and he couldn't lock on the other party's position.

"Is there anything in this that would be good for me?"

He had forgotten all the good wishes that the God of Joy had brought him before, and now he was asking for benefits.

The pass was hidden so deeply that Chen Ningan felt it should be of benefit to him.

The voice suddenly appeared in front of him again. Chen Ningan wanted to take action, but he soon felt that his body was restrained.

Being bound by one hand, the opponent's strength was beyond his imagination, and he could actually compete with him. You should know that his strength was as high as 40,000 pounds, but the opponent's strength was actually comparable to his.

"Chen Ning'an! Are you crazy?"

That voice... gradually became clearer, and the more he listened, the more familiar it seemed to him.

At a certain moment, he suddenly realized that the voice seemed to be his own?

"Can you really not see? You can see here. Please raise your head and look at yourself."

My own voice kept coming, and the hand holding mine gave me waves of warmth.

Chen Ning'an's heart moved. He looked around, and there was confusion in his invisible eyes.

Gradually, light seemed to appear around.

What happened? His eyes were punished by God and should have been blind, so why could he see light and shadow?

"Because this place is very special, I was just one step away. Your lucky charm expired too quickly. If you can't get out, you will never be able to get out."

The hand holding me continued to feel warm, and my voice became softer: "What you see will be the real you. Everything here is also your true heart. Go and find it..."

"The real me?" Chen Ning'an murmured, the light growing brighter and brighter...

Suddenly, his neck felt a tearing pain, and the Yin Spirit came out.

"What demon or monster has bewitched me? I can't see you, but I can eat you!"

The Yin Spirit struggled frantically and pounced towards the place in front of him that was holding Chen Ningan's arm. Another self grew on his body. Chen Ningan felt the warmth of the hand holding his loosen.

Then the Yin Spirit let out a scream, as if burned by something hot.

Those hands came again, holding his face gently.

"Be good~ Take a good look at yourself, what do you really want? Is it really to become an immortal?"

The warmth suddenly penetrated into Chen Ningan's body!

Just like the scorching sun melting the darkness that covered his eyes, Chen Ningan's vision instantly became clear.

This is... a dark red world.

There were sounds of crying ahead of him.

The Yin Spirit went back for some reason. He walked forward subconsciously and saw a shadow.

This shadow made his pupils shrink!
It was a crying girl, squatting in the corner, naked, with her ridged vertebrae visible on her smooth back.

The girl looked back desperately, her eyes full of despair and fatigue.

Chen Ningan couldn't help but take a half step back, and the whole world was in turmoil...

The heart of Tao... is in chaos.

He could hardly stand, as if he was in the midst of raging waves. The girl's position became a giant shadow, high above, dotted with gold and money, turning into a steel knife that scraped bones.

The giant shadow picked it up and slashed at Chen Ningan fiercely!
"what!"

He screamed, stepped back, and looked down. His chest was covered with scars, and his heart was peeling off...

"Get out of here, get out of here!"

He covered his chest, tears and blood falling, and struggled backwards on the ground.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, he missed a step and fell from this piece of flesh and blood into another space.

Three more dark shadows with twisted smiling faces surrounded his head, almost blocking out all the light.

Chen Ning'an's heart was beating even faster. He hurriedly tried to escape from the gaps under the shadows' feet, but he felt a piercing pain in his back and blood flowed from his head.

"Haha, hahaha!" Distorted laughter came from above his head, from behind, from in front of him, and from all directions. He had nowhere to escape and could only run around like a headless fly!
Filled with pain, panic, uneasiness and fear, Chen Ning'an's spiritual heart was falling. In a trance, he saw the immortal high above stained with bright turbid blood and growing a deformed head.

Suddenly, Chen Ningan felt a pair of hands grabbing his shoulders.

All the panic seemed to stop at this moment...

He looked up in shock, his clothes were torn and covered with wounds.

They were a pair of old hands, wearing coarse linen clothes, and had a haggard face.

Only those eyes were bright and clear.

"My child, even if you are in danger, live by the Tao. Don't let down the spirituality God has given you...

These words were like a spring breeze, blowing away the scars and brokenness on his body.

"Master...

Chen Ning'an's lips trembled, disbelief was in his eyes, and he reached out to grab the old man.

But... the old man slowly closed his eyes, his vision blurred and changed, half of his body melted and stuck to the ground, and corpse fluid flowed all over the ground.

It's already stinking, so close your eyes.

“No…no! Master, Master!”

Chen Ning'an hugged her despite the stench, but his vision soon changed again.

He knelt in front of the grave and the scene was repeated again. The simple wooden board was covered with unclear words written in blood.

The flesh on his index finger was peeling off, and he knelt down, a "hehe" sound coming out of the corner of his mouth in pain.

The blood color of the entire world completely disappeared... and turned into a pitch black. Then, the sound of an endless stream of people came, each of them carrying a lantern and walking from afar in the darkness.

Someone holding a red lantern asked him when he would get married.

He sat behind a lonely wooden table, and someone came with a green lantern and asked him when the villain would leave.

Chen Ning'an discovered that he was rich in color, but every time someone came, the color on his body would disappear and become as dark as the darkness.

Someone held a yellow light and asked him how to resolve the relationship with the third party.

Someone was holding a green lamp and asking about his career.

Someone dressed in dark blue asked him what date to choose for this transaction...

In the end, Chen Ning'an looked down at himself. There was no color on his body. It was as dark as the night.

At this time, someone looked at him and sneered: "You dare to make such a boast at such a young age. Just wait and see what his fate will be."

Following the direction of the finger, there is a Chen Ningan.

He turned his head and smiled at himself, but black blood was flowing from all his orifices, and it was obvious that he was dead.

"Boom!"

The loud noise startled Chen Ningan. He turned around suddenly and found that the statue of the gods and Buddhas behind him had collapsed. Under the statue, Wang Ma, Wang Dad, and Wang Youcai's family of three were hiding...

Everything flashed before his eyes, and Chen Ning'an seemed to be stunned, standing still.

Is this his whole life? No, two lives.

But how similar, everything turns to darkness in the end.

He touched his chest, but felt nothing inside.

"The real me?"

He looked around and realized that everything was an illusion, and it was all him.

"I thought I would become an immortal, flying freely in the sky with a sword, and not be affected by the disasters of the mortal world...

But he didn't expect that what he saw was all about emotions.

Joy, anger, sorrow, fear, love, hate, desire, life, death, ears, eyes, mouth, and nose.

greedy! Angry! Crazy!
妒！
All the emotions in his heart collapsed like a bubble of "immortality".

“Is this the real me?”

The question he has been avoiding is his true self?
Chen Ningan stretched out his hand, and everything around him was pitch black, even he himself was in darkness and could not see anything. There was nothing left, only a mad and broken self was left.

Silence...loneliness...everything here is empty.

"Ugh……"

There was another long sigh, but there was no one here, only his mumbling.

"Chen Ning'an, you have to be happy."

"Chen Ning'an, your own light is your salvation."

"Your life is worthless, why don't you rise to the sky like a swan?"

"I have a heart for Taoism, I have a path to becoming an immortal, why should I dwell on the past...abandon everything, start over, and start again..."

The mumbling turned into wailing, turned into wailing, and turned into screaming.

He heard a sound.

Looking down, I saw the entire Zhong City screaming in a sea of ​​fire.

When he lowered his head again, he saw countless pairs of eyes staring at him in Mucheng, and the lights of the Paper Man Spell enveloped the surroundings.

"Inner demon..."

He murmured, and light appeared in his missing heart.

This time, it was not his own voice, but another voice.

"The golden stove is just starting to light up, and the fairy peach is blooming. The ancient locust tree casts a thin shadow, and the fairy osmanthus makes the sound of autumn..."

"Chen Ning'an, wake up, wake up!"

He opened his eyes dazedly, only to find that his soul had changed.

It became unusually warm, no longer as cold as before.

"After the twelve immortals had passed through the Jedi, they knew that the fetus had been nurtured."

He didn't know when the silver scissors appeared in his hand, and with the pass in his hand, he left that space.

The scissors broke into pieces.

Chen Ning'an couldn't see anything again, but he returned to Mucheng. This time, he seemed to have obtained something very important from the lantern.

"It's all a closed loop, and someone is helping me."

He raised his head but couldn't see clearly, just as the fortune teller had predicted.

He will meet many people who will help him in his life.

But he couldn't see it.

…………

"Hey, where did the gentleman go? You guys are so mysterious all day, can you tell me about him?"

In Jiang'an Community, a gurgling sound came from the stove and the aroma of stewed pork ribs filled the living room.

Chun Yufeng looked at the time, then asked Gao Xun while hugging the sofa pillow.

"You don't say a word every day. We are colleagues. A beautiful woman is standing in front of you, and you are still indifferent?"

Gao Xun glanced at the talkative Chun Yufeng and said nothing.

The short-term change of her master made the girl a little arrogant, and I don’t know how long she can live.

"Do you think he likes spicy food or light food?"

Chun Yufeng asked again, chattering on and on. This was the umpteenth time he had asked such questions today.

"You don't have feelings for me, do you?"

Gao Xun's words revealed a warning: "Although there are no such clauses in the contract, for the sake of our relationship as colleagues, I advise you not to have any delusions."

"Mr. is not someone that an ordinary person like you can covet. No one is worthy of what he wants to do and the position he is in."

"Humph, you are not him, how do you know what he thinks?"

Chun Yufeng raised his head and turned to the kitchen: "I'll try the saltiness. There is too little information about Zhongcheng on the Internet, but the food in Mucheng is spicy."

"Mucheng is very close to Zhongcheng, so I think the taste is similar. I'll add some peppercorns and dried chilies."

She hummed a song, how could she not be happy? She had earned tens of thousands in such a short time.

With my sister as a guarantor, there is no need to worry about a bad check.

I have to find a way to give my sister a gift later.

"pat..."

The door opened, and the two of them turned their heads almost at the same time to look towards the door.

"Wow, it smells so good."

Chen Ningan took a deep breath, raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Stewed pork ribs, I haven't eaten it for a long time."

He sat down at the table and waited for his meal.

"It seems I came back just in time."

Gao Xun was surprised that the effect of the talisman had not yet worn off?
He quietly looked behind Chen Ning'an, and found that the talisman was gone.

The master has been possessed?

He couldn't help but lower his voice and ask, "Master, have you used the pass? What was the result?"

After saying this, Chen Ning'an's voice, which had been gentle just now, turned cold.

A murderous look flashed across his pale face: "Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask. There are some things you shouldn't know. Just do your job well."

It tastes just right, this is the master!
Gao Xun breathed a sigh of relief, but before he could speak, Chen Ning'an's voice became soft again.

"Xiao Gao, go get me a glass of water. I'm a little thirsty."
