Turn of Time

"So, you already know?"

Chu Shuzhi casually stirred the Xueding coffee, his eyes fell on Zhao Yunlan who was opposite him through the glass.

Although he is the Headquarters of the Spirit Tuning Master Alliance, from the outside, he is just a middle-aged man with a slightly gloomy temperament, and there is nothing special about him.

In contrast, Zhao Yunlan was much more conspicuous in the crowd. Aside from his pale complexion and huge dark circles, the dust and dark red all over his body also attracted the attention of others.

However, he himself seems to have ignored these things, put his fingers between his brows nervously, and said in a hoarse voice: "I don't have time to listen to your nonsense, what happened to Shen Wei's death, and what is the weird red line on his arm? Or Said, that line was the one that caused his painful death and brought about the decline of external forces?"

"You guessed right. The reason why Shen Wei's body collapsed was due to the erosion of time." Chu Shuzhi took a sip of coffee, his expression hidden behind the milk cover, "but the red line is not the cause of death, at best it is It's just an indicator showing how much time is left."

"So... what did he do to incur such punishment?"

Clenching his hands into fists, Zhao Yunlan let his canines cut into the corner of his lower lip, hoping to use the pain to evoke a sense of reason.

Based on his understanding of Shen Wei, such a person who is so affectionate and tolerant will never easily pay such a high price for others. If there is such a possibility, then he must have devoted a lot of effort to that person. maybe even...

Unforgettable, unswerving until death.

It was vile jealousy that burned his chest madly.

"Don't think about it so much, maybe he is just for you."

Chu Shu's words were not surprising, and then he shrugged indifferently, and said with a light smile:

"Just kidding, I really don't know the reason why Shen Wei went to the Gate of Time, which is the secret realm that manages the operation of time, to make a deal. But he told me that the result of the exchange is to obtain a long life beyond the limit of human beings, crossing reincarnation until the wish Achievement. At the moment when his wish is fulfilled or destined to fail, the protective cover on his body will shatter, and he will gradually weaken and die under the erosion of the power of time.

"You know, the law of time, no one can violate, even if he Shen Wei has the ability to reach the sky, there is no exception."

His words seem to have a double meaning, but Zhao Yunlan is so anxious at the moment, he can't hear the meaning behind his words: "Why can you state all this so calmly, isn't he your best friend? Now he is dead Annihilation, irreparable, how can you be so indifferent?"

"As you said, death and soul are irreparable, you and I are not gods at all, of course nothing can be changed, can't we?"

Facing Chu Shuzhi's questioning, for the first time, Zhao Yunlan found that the language was so weak that he couldn't even make a strong rebuttal.

Feeling helpless and manic permeated his heart, and the blood was spreading along the corner of his damaged mouth. Suddenly, a bold idea came to his mind, which intensified and became unstoppable:

"What if I also exchange it with the Door of Time? Use my life to exchange Shen Wei back?"

To his surprise, Chu Shuzhi didn't respond to this sentence, but watched him silently, his eyes filled with pity and helplessness, he stopped talking for a while, for some reason, he finally wanted to say what he wanted to say The words swallowed back.

Zhao Yunlan stared at his every move, his eyes seemed to be on fire, and he refused to let go of any details: "You don't speak out against it, does it mean that this method is feasible? Then tell me, what should I do?" To find the Door of Time?"

Chu Shuzhi drank the remaining coffee in the cup, took out his handkerchief and wiped his mouth gracefully, then took out a small flashlight-shaped object from his side pocket, and put it in front of Zhao Yunlan.

"I will give you ten days. If you can decipher the mystery of this object, it means that you have the ability to enter the Door of Time. Call me at that time, and I will naturally take you to the Door of Time. I will never break my promise. Otherwise... ..."

The meaning after that was self-evident, Zhao Yunlan stared at him with bloodshot eyes, and nodded heavily with a sharp and decisive aura.

Chu Shuzhi sighed and patted him on the shoulder, his eyes glanced at the blood and dust around him, and he couldn't help exhorting:

"Remember to tidy up yourself, he probably doesn't want to see you looking so decadent."

Having said all this, he stopped staying any longer, walked out of the coffee shop where he met, and sat in the car of the alliance headquarters.The driver quickly drove to the alliance complex in the east of Dragon City. After getting out of the car, he stepped back, poured spiritual power into the portal, and walked in, stepping into a void.

In front of Chu Shu's eyes was an incomparably magnificent scene. In the pitch-black sky, a huge crimson vortex was rotating at high speed, swallowing the milky white light bands coming from all around.And if you observe carefully, there seems to be a picture in the milky white light belt that continues to flicker, recording the vicissitudes of the world, and then merged into the vortex without going forward.

Under the vortex is a huge ice-blue throne, as if carved from the mysterious ice for thousands of years. The gem-like crystal light shrouds the whole seat, and the backrest and armrests are engraved with beautiful cloud patterns, which are exquisite and gorgeous. things.

Under the throne, there are layers of spiral staircases spreading to all sides, extending to every end where the light belt appears.

Sitting on the seat was a man in black, covered from head to toe, with a black gold mask on his face, his face could not be seen clearly.He held a scepter tightly in his hand, about two meters high, with a clear blood ruby ​​inlaid on the top, and the black gold base below was engraved in the shape of a flying feather, spiraling downward around the top.

Chu Shuzhi stared at him, a smile could not help but appear on the corner of his mouth.

In the Door of Time, "again" watching this matter with a cold eye, what would he think in his heart?
