Absurd Deduction Game Chapter 745

Chapter 745 Moving forward or looking back

In the cold corridor, there was a silent malice coming from the corpse.

Yu Xing rubbed his temples, gave a slight **** to the corpse that was clearly attracting his attention, and walked over without looking away.

His back disappeared into the darkness, silence enveloped him, and the body suddenly turned its head.

Yu Xing met the corpse five times. The fourth and fifth times, the corpse was still leaning on the corridor, but the head turned to the front of the corridor for some reason.

Children began to appear on the murals.

Young boys and girls have simple expressions, lying on a low table holding a brush and writing homework silently. They are lively and cute in spring, summer, autumn and winter.

The illness of the old and the maturity of young men and women have nothing to do with children. The mural reliefs are becoming more and more full and crowded. The beauty of the art is destroyed, leaving only a sense of fragmentation.

At the end, the baby appears.

　　The plump human cub was held in the arms of the old man, his big eyes full of hope and curiosity about the world.

Their little arms like lotus roots stretched out their swaddling clothes and waved them in the air.

Yu Xing seemed to hear a few babies crying.

He shook his head, knowing that this was an hallucination that could easily occur in a claustrophobic space.

There is no need to pay attention to it.

When he was about to pass by the corpse for the fifth time, something in the dark finally lost its composure.

"Jingle Bell…"

The wind chimes made a pleasant sound, and a dull, hoarse human voice came from the corpse's mouth.

　　【Do you really want to go like this? 】

Yu Xing raised his eyebrows, turned to look at the corpse, and said jokingly: "I thought you were going to stay silent. After all, you have been following me all the way, so you can continue to follow me, right?"

“Maybe I'll be scared crazy by you who can't get rid of you~”

These words sounded a bit sarcastic, and the corpse probably knew it and did not continue to follow his words.

The corpse's mouth did not move, and it was not clear which organ the voice came from. It was a bit quiet, and it did not look like the corpse itself was talking. Instead, it seemed like a higher being had borrowed the corpse to talk to Yu Xing.

　　【Life is short, and after decades, the best time will be wasted. 】

　　　　Have you seen it already? Fortunately. 】

The voice directly called out Yu Xing's name, as solemn as a **** and as rich as a bell.

　　　【Getting old, worried in middle age, frustrated in youth, trapped in youth, people are struggling with possession and loss throughout their lives. Even babies who have just been born into this world cannot escape fear. 】

　　【People have been approaching death since birth. Death is both the starting point and the end point. 】

Yu Xing folded his arms and listened to "him" speak, and chuckled slightly when he heard this.

Yin Yang Corridor is indeed a bit divine. He didn't feel much when he saw the murals at first, but later he discovered it.

The theme of the mural is not "a family", but "a person".

From old age to dying, to middle age, to youth and then to infancy, this is a review of a person's life.

Fate has yin and yang, and people have life and death. The murals in the corridor are trying to tell a story—a story about life, death, and destiny.

Of course, the mural cannot be placed here for no reason. Every time the corpse appears, the mural goes back a stage. It is now a baby and it is time to see it.

"What do you want to say?" Yu Xing no longer looked at the corpse, but looked up into the void. He knew that the thing that was really talking to him must be "up there."

【I want you to make a choice. 】

The voice said.

　　【Life is death, death is life, and the Yin-Yang Corridor is not without an end. You have reached the end. Next, whether to move forward or look back is the choice you have to make. 】

The yellow talisman was blown by the wind, and suddenly there was a dark wind with no source, as if it was blowing from the underworld.

A smile appeared on Yu Xing's face: "As I walk along the way, the murals are the most intuitive reminder. Going forward, it gets older and older, and going forward, it gets smaller and smaller. If I choose to look back..."

“I will definitely become a dying old man.”

The voice made no comment on this.

"It seems that as long as you are a normal person, you will choose to move forward." Yu Xing raised his hand and stroked the texture of the mural relief, "But -"

“Life is death, death is life, and life and death are a cycle. At least the old man is still alive, but if I move forward, what will be waiting for me after I am a baby?”

A baby is a new baby.

Before rebirth, there is only death.

Ahead is death.

【So, your choice is to turn back? 】

The voice seemed to sigh inaudibly.

　　【In that case, let's walk backwards. 】

"No." Yu Xing suddenly rebelled, "My choice is to move forward."

The closed corridor fell into silence for a moment. Some people really can't reason with him. One second they conclude that moving forward means death, and the next second they choose to move forward.

Yu Xing didn't care what “him” thought, he just picked up his feet and moved forward.

The voice did not stop him, but after he took a few steps, he asked in surprise.

【Why? 】

　　【You obviously guessed the cycle of life and death, why did you make such a choice? 】

Yu Xing kept walking and said leisurely: "Because - this is a trap."

"The cycle of life and death is just the first level. It is just a legend. In fact, people only have one life, from birth to death, and it is gone after it is over."

“When I entered the corridor, the murals on both sides were blurry and almost incomprehensible. It was only after I saw the corpse for the first time that I saw the old man on the mural.”

“So what was it about the mural that I didn't understand at first? I guess after the old man, it was death.”

“When I look back, I take the initiative to walk toward death step by step.”

When Yu Xing said this, his throat felt inexplicably itchy, as if he had collided with something that could not be said.

He rang the wind chime: "Of course, the most important thing is that I recognized the identity of the corpse."

　　【Did you recognize him? 】

“Hmm, he is me, right?”

Telling the truth in an understatement, Yu Xing touched the goose bumps on his arms.

The five corpses he saw were all his own.

Although the face of the corpse was covered in blood scabs, the body shape was still recognizable. Due to death, the body had dried up a lot, but the skeleton was consistent with his.

And in the gap between the blood scab, under the left eye, there is a mole.

The first time Yu Xing passed the corpse and stretched out his hand to test the temperature, he had already seen it up close. At that time, he knew that he was the one who had hanged himself.

But he acted so calmly that he really deceived the Yin-Yang Corridor.

"The corpse is on my way. As long as I look back, I am the corpse." Yu Xing has passed another corner, and the mural is about to end.

"But I won't look back. The corpse and I will always be separated."

【But there is also death ahead of the baby. 】

The voice was still calm, without any good intentions or malice, like a conscientious recorder.

Yu Xing laughed out loud: "You just told me what is in front of the baby. You said that the Yin-Yang Corridor is not without an end. I have already reached the end."

After the last corner, a door appeared in front.

Yu Xing watched the door slowly open in front of him and said easily: "There will be no more murals in front of the baby stage, because, in the end, the end of life is not death, but the exit."

This door opened quietly, and there seemed to be an antique room behind the door.

　　【You passed the test of the first section of the Yin-Yang Corridor. 】

　　【Then, let's keep going. 】

　　【Life and death are free. Those who control their destiny will never be troubled by life and death. Give it a try, Yu Xing, will you be the one recognized? 】

　　【The test in the second paragraph is not just yours...】

“Yo, you're here?”

The door was completely opened, and Yu Xing saw the person behind the door.

The green gown is dotted with jingling crystal ornaments, the long black hair is **** in wolf hair, and the face is as gentle as jade.

In the middle of the dungeon, Yi Qing, who had been missing for a long time due to distance and difficulty in contact, smiled and waved to Yu Xing: "Come in and sit down, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Yu Xing twitched the corners of his lips and stepped forward without hesitation, and the door closed behind him.

The room is not big, about the size of a bedroom in his home during the Republic of China. There is an Eight Immortals table in the center, and there are imperial concubine tables along the wall.

The window behind the bed was gray and could not see the outside world, but at least it was much more open than in the corridor.

“…Are you the first person to look directly at the totem and enter the Yin-Yang Corridor?” Yu Xing didn't even want to ask Yiqing how much he knew. This old ghost had a behind-the-scenes deal with the system, so he must have a clear conscience.

"Yes, besides you, there are two other people on the road. We have to wait for them to arrive before the second section of the road starts." Yiqing smiled and poured a cup of tea for Yu Xing. The tea was cold and refreshing. .

“You obviously came later, but you walked faster than them. Do you know why?”

The Green Ghost floated up, lay on Yu Xing's head, and asked with a smile.

"Zhao Yijiu walked with the actor, and the test he encountered must be different from mine." Yu Xing waved his hand and slapped Yiqing down, "Don't pull me."

"Oh, you're wrong. It doesn't matter what the test is. What's important is that those two people...have more things in their hearts than you."

Yiqing sat on the exquisitely carved chair and took a sip of tea: "You left without hesitation because you have understood your own heart now. You are not confused or hesitant, and those two people are different."

"This has nothing to do with the strength of the team. They each have their own obsessions and weaknesses, so they need to spend more time."

"The Yin-Yang Corridor...and the Yin-Yang City behind it are the most dangerous places I know. Anyone who comes here is like an ant."

"Ant?" Yu Xing's choice of words was somewhat unexpected and clear. Even if he was an actor with... that kind of strength, would he still be an ant?

"Everyone is equal in life and death." Yiqing said with a smile, "All those who think they are special have just never seen the real Yin Yang City."

“To put it in a more understandable way, Yin Yang City is a copy of the game, and its dangers cannot be resisted even at the real level.”

I want to keep writing as I write, because I want to finish the first section of the corridor. a little late
