Wrong hold? The fake daughter made her whole family famous by relying on metaphysics

The potholes on the ground disappeared, and the elevator transported them back to the original place. The last three-dimensional square was placed into the groove, and the middle table slowly rose.

A smooth countertop reflects a pitch-black mirror. If you get close to it, you won't be able to see the image. It looks like a pitch-black stone with light.

You can enter the last floor from here. Yu Qing's eyebrows were slightly cold and he said to the two people behind him: "Wait for me here."

"it is good."

Neither Qin Zhi nor Yin Yusheng raised any objections. She had her own reasons for saying this, and they might be hindered if they followed her.

The little zombie was left to take care of the two of them, and Yu Qing went to the last floor through the mirror alone.

A deserted place surrounded by yellow sand.

Yu Qing walked for a long time before he saw a sarcophagus on a desert peak. It was narrow at the top and wide at the center, about the size of an adult.

She didn't go there immediately, as if she was waiting for something. The next second -

"Are you all ready?"

"Yes, they are all the family members of the people responsible for this ceremony, and they will not be spread out."

"Well, remember to be nimble with your hands and feet." The strangely dressed old man held a scepter in his hand and stood on a high altar.

Next to him was a younger man, who responded and turned around to leave.

The old man stood there hesitating for a while before walking slowly down.

It was daytime at this time, the sun was still hanging in the sky, time was reversed, and soon it was dark again. Yu Qing was like a bystander watching the sky keep changing until it stopped at night.

A dozen men and women who looked young were tied up, and several burly men took them to the altar, where there were several sarcophagi prepared in advance.

There were lit torches all around, and many people in white clothes covered their heads, but they seemed to be praying devoutly, which was a bit strange.

The scene was quiet for a while. Everyone was frightened and panicked, their bodies were shaking, and their faces were stained with tears. Occasionally, a few wanted to speak but could not make a sound.

Yu Qing was standing right next to the old man. She couldn't go too far and couldn't touch the people here. She jumped over like a soul touching a human being.

It seemed that she could only follow the plot that the owner of the sarcophagus allowed her to watch.

I don’t know how much time passed, but the initial ceremony was initially over. The old man held the scepter and stood at the highest point, looked up at the sky, and smiled to himself.

"For our homeland, for that infinite oasis, your efforts are worth it. We will not forget it, and we will remember all the heroes——"

After the old man said some more heartfelt words, he waved his hand and ordered people to carry the sacrifices up. There were more than ten sarcophagi in the direction of his finger.

The people below turned their backs one after another, and the next scene was really bloody...

We all know that dead people can be mummified, but mummifying a living person is a hundred or even a thousand times more painful than being cut into pieces with a thousand cuts.

The internal organs were removed, the blood was drained, and then they were re-sewed... wrapped in white mummy cloth, and finally sealed in a sarcophagus.

At this point, the screen flashed again, the same venue, but there were fewer people.

The old man was left standing alone at the highest point, looking up at the sky sadly.

He suddenly threw away his scepter and sat on the ground regardless of his most important attitude.

"Hahaha--"

"Fake!! It's all fake!! Retribution hahaha... There is no infinite oasis at all..."

"Infinite Oasis——"

……

……

"You've seen it, what do you think?"

A gentle voice came from the void. It was neither machine nor human. It was very calm, as if it was indifferent to all life and death and separated from the world. Yu Qing slowly raised her eyes. There was still the sarcophagus in front of her. She had come out of the memory environment. The last scene before coming out was fixed at the moment when the old man committed suicide.

"The cycle of cause and effect, I have nothing to say."

"..."

Maybe it was because people didn't know how to respond to her words. The voice was silent for a long time before continuing: "As you said, karma repays you."

Yu Qing asked: "Then why are you killing living creatures now?"

The other party did not answer her question, but said to himself: "If we could have treated our homeland a little better, even just a little bit, we wouldn't have punished her like this."

"It's a pity that the most expensive thing in the world is the word 'if'."

"Back then, we were greedy and demanded endlessly from the homeland where we lived. We were like naughty children who didn't know how to understand their mothers. We were selfish and self-interested."

"We were excited, building shelters, asking for food and water... But we forgot that even if we love deeply, our mother will fall down from exhaustion. So, the punishment came, the water and food were taken away, and the yellow sand …The sky is full of yellow sand…”

"We long for mother's forgiveness, but she will not forgive us. The infinite oasis may never have existed. The desert cannot save itself..."

Later, the sound became weaker and weaker, until it disappeared completely, and the sarcophagus turned into yellow sand and merged into the desert.

They have paid their lives and used the most painful price as sincerity to be forgiven by their mother, even if they did not hesitate to harm living creatures.

But they didn't realize until the moment of destruction that true self-rescue does not come at the cost of themselves. Living things are the mother's favorite part.

How could my mother forgive her if she continued to harm all living beings over and over again?
Yu Qing possessed himself and picked up a black mirror where the sarcophagus melted into sand.

In fact, the mother never really punished her, and the method of self-rescue had been given to them long ago, but they just didn't understand it. Infinite oasis might exist.

Yu Qing held the black mirror and pulled out a ray of ghost from it, and the piece of black mirror was crushed with her bare hands.

The infinite oasis is a place that will always remain mysterious.

"Swish..."

There were noises all around, and mummies one by one broke through the last restrictions and climbed out of the ground.

She took out the brush and turned it twice: "Old friend, it will be over soon."

……

……

Yin Yusheng sat on the ground and waited for who knows how long. He felt hungry and tired, and finally there was a crisp sound from the mirror.

"Miss Yu, you're out!"

Qin Zhi, who was resting against the wall, immediately walked over, worry flashing in his eyes: "Are you okay?"

Yu Qing patted her pink satchel: "Of course it's okay. The matter has been resolved. Let's go back."

Qin Zhi nodded: "Okay."

Yin Yusheng: "..." He seemed to be ignored again, didn't he?

Yes.

After solving the problem of the last soul, it will be much easier to leave the desert.

Because as soon as they went out, they went directly to the entrance of the desert.

Fortunately, it would be evening, otherwise if someone saw them appearing out of thin air, they might be dragged away for research.

When they parted, Yu Qing and Qin Zhi agreed on a time for the soul to return, and then rushed back without stopping to prepare for the next national competition.
