Originated from mountains and seas, life never ends

Mo Hanyu stayed in this room for several months in a row. He had no idea what was happening outside, but he watched the sun rise and the moon set every day. From the initial collapse and discomfort, he gradually became numb.

Mo Hanyu sat in the corner, curled up, staring blankly at the brother and sister in the cage next to him, his mind blank.

He had roughly figured out the pattern: when the sun set, the woman would come back and the torture would begin.

The two children never spoke to each other, perhaps because no one had taught them. Every time the girl finished, she would comfort her brother with body language. The boy was so quiet that he didn't look like a human being. There was no light in his empty eyes, just a dead look.

Mo Hanyu thought it would go on like this until one day, an accident happened.

That day, the girl was particularly excited after waking up - although it was just her eyes that were a little brighter, Mo Hanyu still saw it.

"Meng... Xian!" The girl gestured with her hands and feet. The hideous scar on her arm was torn open, and blood gushed out. But the girl seemed not to feel it and continued to say something happily.

The boy looked at her meekly, trying to understand what she meant.

Mo Hanyu learned from the girl's body movements and the words that she had said that she had dreamed of gods and that she could go to a place to make a wish and be saved.

The boy shook his head slightly, not understanding what the girl wanted to do.

The girl smiled at the boy.

This was the first time Mo Hanyu saw a smile on her face.

Mo Hanyu raised his head slightly, his hands already hugging the back of his neck, and there was a slight change in his eyes.

The girl wanted to escape and ask the gods to save them.

Mo Hanyu understood a little.

The boy hesitated, obviously afraid of the consequences if the woman found out, but when he saw the girl's shining eyes, he nodded.

Mo Hanyu could see that the boy actually knew that this hope was very slim, and might even be just an illusion, but after seeing the girl's hopeful eyes, the boy still nodded and agreed.

But they have been born in this room and have never seen what the outside world is like. How should they cope with it?

Mo Hanyu stared at them with complicated eyes, and his heart unconsciously tightened.

The next day, after the woman left and her footsteps disappeared for a long time, the girl dug her fingers into the wound on her arm and pulled out a bloody key in the blood.

The skinny arm easily passed through the gap in the iron pillar and opened the chain.

The girl opened the cage door, tentatively stretched out her foot, and stepped out of the cage. After coming out, she looked around and heard no movement. Then she turned to look at the boy in the cage.

The girl wants the boy to go with her.

As soon as the boy stepped out of the cage, he fell to the ground, twitching non-stop. The poisonous worms under his skin swam rapidly, spreading all over his body, and his whole body was covered with black bulging lines, which made people feel both disgusted and a little pitiful.

The girl helped the boy up without any disgust, and could feel the moving poisonous insect on the bulge through her skin.

The boy propped himself up and tried to force his way out, but he spat out a mouthful of blood. In the end, he had no choice but to retreat back into the cage.

The girl burst into tears, tears as big as beans rolled down her face, her eyes were filled with sadness.

The boy stopped twitching, his eyes became calm, and he squeezed the girl's fingers as if to comfort her.

The girl kissed the boy's forehead, closed her eyes, and limped away.

Wherever the girl walked, she left conspicuous bloodstains.

The boy sat alone in the cage, hugging his knees, and he knew what was going to happen next.

Mo Hanyu covered his forehead and shed two lines of tears unconsciously.

Mo Hanyu didn't want to watch or hear what happened next, but he still stared at the boy under the woman's control in a self-masochistic manner, with an expressionless face and tear marks. After the woman removed the poisonous insect from the boy's body, she cut dozens of bloody wounds on his body at once and poured all the young poisonous insects in the jar onto his body.

The insect twisted its body and drilled into the boy's body frantically. The boy curled up in pain and opened his mouth to scream, but no sound came out.

"How could you not be good?" The woman pinched the boy's chin, digging her nails into his flesh. "How could you think of escaping from here? Luckily, I had already put a spell on you... I thought if you couldn't escape, your sister would definitely stay with you, but I didn't expect... your relationship as siblings is just like this."

The woman said this with a mocking and crazy smile, admiring the sight of the boy being tortured by the poisonous insect to the point of being unable to live or die.

Mo Hanyu finally shifted his gaze to her, and a startling hint of murderous intent appeared in his cold and numb eyes.

But what can you do if you have the intention to kill?

Mo Hanyu lowered his head in self-mockery.

There is nothing he can do.

……

At night, the boy sat quietly in the cage, hugging his knees. There was not a single piece of intact skin on his body. The woman had scratched him so hard that his tendons and bones were even exposed in some places.

The boy seemed like he wanted to cry, but he swallowed back his tears again and again, and not a single tear fell.

Mo Hanyu wanted to persuade him more than once, just cry if you want to...that woman is not here, nothing will happen.

But he knew clearly that no matter what he said or did, the boy could not perceive it at all. In the end, he could only lean weakly against the edge of the cage and look at him quietly.

The woman did something unknown, the floor rose up, and several spiders half a man's height crawled out from the ground. The woman threw out the clothes that smelled of the girl, and asked them to bring the girl back, dead or alive.

Mo Hanyu didn’t know whether these spiders could understand human language, but when he saw those spiders crawling out, his heart couldn’t help but writhe in pain.

Mo Hanyu looked at the boy. He felt that this was the boy's memory.

So...is this Qin Xiao’s memory?

But this is not the Qin family.

A flash of inspiration suddenly flashed through Mo Hanyu's mind - he thought about his past and present life.

If we say that this is Qin Xiao’s memory from his previous life, then it might make sense.

Mo Hanyu closed his eyes, his mind in a mess.

……

As the days passed, the boy's torture did not lessen.

Mo Hanyu once watched the woman peel off the boy's skin like peeling it off, and use the long iron needle to pierce the flesh, tendons and bone joints under the skin, picking out disgusting poisonous insects from it.

In addition to serving as a tool for raising the Gu, the boy also did the girl's job - dripping his own blood into the jar for raising the Gu.

The boy wanted to cry more than once, but every time he wanted to cry, he would think of something and open his eyes wide, trying to hold back the tears. Even if he was shaking all over, he would not shed a single tear.

Because of this, the boy almost suffocated himself several times.

Mo Hanyu suddenly felt that it would be better for the boy to die like this, at least he wouldn't have to suffer so much anymore.

Finally, the girl came back.

But the girl did not bring back her so-called fairy.

But she still came back.

The day the girl came back, she was almost cut into pieces by the woman.

The girl's body looked as if she had been tortured to death, with flesh and blood exposed everywhere.

The girl was sitting in the cage, and when she saw the boy looking at her, she smiled at him.

Mo Hanyu didn't know how the girl laughed.

"Don't be afraid." The girl's hoarse voice was like an old xylophone. "It will... come."

The boy stared at the scars on the girl's body, not daring to touch her. But the girl grabbed his hand and stared at the insect wriggling under his skin, wondering what she was thinking.

The girl looked at the marks on the boy's body, her eyes were sad, but suddenly she became determined.

Mo Hanyu looked at the girl's determined gaze and suddenly had an ominous premonition.

"It will... get better."

Mo Hanyu didn't expect that these were the girl's last words before she died.

The next day, the girl died.

He was hacked to death by a woman.

The girl disobeyed the woman, who twisted her face, picked up the axe hidden in the corner, and stared at her with horror.

"What did you say just now? I didn't hear it." The woman's horrified voice echoed in the empty room. The boy grabbed the iron pillar nervously, not daring to move his eyes away, staring at the girl.

"Do not……"

Mo Hanyu finally heard the boy speak and uttered a word.

There were conspicuous bloodstains on the iron pillar. The boy held it tightly, and blood flowed out from between his fingers, all the way down, and finally gathered on the ground.

The girl didn't say anything, but raised her head, revealing her extremely sarcastic eyes.

"Ah."

The girl curled her lips with extreme sarcasm.

The woman suddenly lost her mind, swung the axe at her, and chopped off the girl's arm with one blow.

The boy screamed and tried to push his head out. The poisonous insects under his skin twisted wildly, but he ignored them. He was stuck in the gap between the iron pillars, covered in blood, and was pulling at them with trembling hands.

The axe fell on the girl's face, leaving a hideous crack. Blood spurted out immediately, covering the girl's face.

The woman then chopped down with the axe again, chopping off half of the girl's head.

At that moment, time seemed to stop.

The boy's screams and the blood pumping from the girl's neck were particularly clear in Mo Hanyu's mind. The gray world was painted with an astonishing bright color by the girl's blood. The spurting blood caught Mo Hanyu's sight firmly.

The world is quiet.

There was only that astonishing blood color left in Mo Hanyu's eyes, and the surroundings seemed to be separated by darkness. The boy's screams became much quieter.

Finally, the girl's blood spilled on the ground, staining her neck red and flowing down her body.

The boy collapsed and let out a shrill cry, and the miserable sound almost pierced Mo Hanyu's soul.

The woman chopped the girl's head off several times.

The blood dyed the floor beneath the girl red, spreading from her body.

The woman picked up the axe and walked towards the boy step by step. Her face was stained with the girl's blood, and the madness and ferocity in her eyes almost dyed her pupils red.

The boy looked up and met the woman's gaze, with unprecedented hatred in his eyes.

The woman had a strange smile on her face and raised her axe towards the boy.

At this moment, an accident happened.

A blood-red magic circle suddenly bloomed beneath the girl. The magic circle glowed brightly and slowly rose into the air.

"The contract is complete."

A voice without any emotion sounded.

Mo Hanyu looked up suddenly.

The woman turned around and threw her axe at the glowing formation.

A pale, slender hand stretched out from the light, and two fingers gently grasped the bloody blade.

The woman's expression changed from surprise to anger to panic, and finally she burst into laughter.

The hand squeezed lightly, and the axe broke into several pieces and fell to the ground.

The iron cage that trapped the boy suddenly expanded outwards, as if it was being torn open by someone.

The boy fell to the ground, rolled and crawled to the girl, and knelt down, not knowing what to do with the girl's body.

Finally, he held the girl's head tremblingly, not caring about the blood on his body, and pulled the girl's body, putting the two together. After finally closing them, he let go and the girl's head rolled to the ground again.

The boy was shaking all over. He tried several times but couldn't get them back to their previous position.
