Heavenly Official Sends Evil

Chapter 991 Black Stone Carving
Kui Shou's identity is shrouded in mystery; it is unknown whether he is friend or foe.

However, given the current situation, Wu Xian had no other choice but to cooperate with Kui Shou for the time being.

Wu Xianxian asked, "Do you know where this place is?"

The wound on Aoi's shoulder had healed. He shook his head impatiently and said, "If I had known, I would have escaped long ago. Why would I have bothered cooperating with you? I was taking a leisurely stroll when I pushed open a door and ended up here."

"Me too, I suddenly woke up in a hospital room and knew nothing about this place."

Wu Xian did not lie.

Furthermore, he obtained some information through Aoi's words.

Wu Xian initially thought this was a dream, the evidence being the chaotic and bizarre scene outside the window.

But Aoi was taking a walk before she came here, and suddenly she appeared in another dimension, as if a blessed land had pulled her in.

Furthermore, Kui Shou's memory was clear before he arrived here, which is different from Wu Xian's situation. Wu Xian's memories from the previous few days were partially blurred, and the doctor's advice was to try not to recall them...

Aoi Kari then continued recounting his discovery:
“Before you came out, I had already checked the entire circular corridor. There was no exit leading to the outside. The ceiling seemed to have ventilation holes, but it was solid. The sewers were just for show. The walls were impenetrable. Outside the windows was a chaotic space. Even just reaching out my hand would give me the feeling that my body was about to collapse.”

"In this strange space, the only place left to explore is that one!"

Aoi pointed towards the half-open door leading to the central area.

“There might be something crucial hidden there, but I sense something very ominous behind that door, so I plan to find a breakthrough from the outside first, just like you…”

"yes……"

Wu Xian nodded, but inwardly he was ranting and raving.

What does it mean to be the same as me?
I have no idea what's behind the door; I just haven't had a chance to explore it yet!
This is Aoi's blind spot in thinking.

From his perspective, both he and Wu Xian were locked in a special ward, and when Wu Xian attacked him with the Fire-Invading Flying Kick, the speed was astonishing.

He had been following Wu Xian long enough to check the corridor eight times. Wu Xian hadn't explored the interior of the corridor for so long, but instead had been slowly circling around. He must have sensed the danger behind the door.

After exchanging a few words, the two prepared to explore the central area together.

Just then, a patient with long hair and bound hands walked over. He was the first patient to communicate with Wu Xian. This man asked Wu Xian mysteriously:
"How many times have we met now?"

Wu Xian looked slightly taken aback.

Theoretically speaking, this is their second meeting.

But this patient's problem suggests that there may be some kind of cyclical mechanism in this space!

Wu Xian had just completed a walk around the circular corridor, and the space was normal, indicating that the abnormal mechanism had not yet been triggered. Therefore, after thinking for a moment, he replied:

"This is the first time we've met."

"I remember it very clearly, this is the second time we've met. Do you have any conscience? You even lied to a mentally ill person. Are you afraid I'm not sick enough? Bah!"

The long-haired man spat and left, cursing under his breath.

Kui Shou laughed heartily, while Wu Xian awkwardly scratched the ground with his toes.

It seems he's overthinking things. This guy is just an ordinary madman. In fact, probably all the helpless patients are madmen. Trying to extract information from them is likely to lead you astray.

After this little incident, Wu Xian and Kui Shou walked together toward the door leading to the central area. The door wasn't far, but neither of them wanted to be the first to go in.

Therefore, they decided to enter side by side, and Wu Xian's left arm was constantly swinging rapidly as he walked, making him look like he was suffering from some kind of illness.

Like lightning accumulating within a thunderbolt, once the accumulation is complete, it must be released within one minute. However, if it remains in the accumulation process, the lightning can be released at any time.

Of course, no matter how long he accumulates power, there is a limit to the power of thunder.

But when Kui Shou saw Wu Xian's suspicious actions, the wariness in his eyes lessened, and he felt that he and Wu Xian had more and more in common.

……

crunch...

The door was pushed open, revealing a huge circular hall to the two of them.

Pale light poured down from the dome, casting an unreal, deathly white hue over everything in the space. A solitary round table stood in the center of the hall, upon which sat a black stone sculpture. Apart from that, there was nothing else—no windows, no pillars, and the floor was patterned like the cerebral cortex…

There were a dozen or so patients scattered around, wandering aimlessly in the lobby.

Wu Xian took a step forward, stepping onto the blood, and a pungent smell of blood hit him. He had been looking at the scenery in the distance, but there was a person right under his feet.

Small animals sometimes get run over by vehicles while crossing the road, turning into flat pieces. If it's a mouse, it's called a mouse pancake; if it's a cat, it's called a cat pancake; but this thing in front of you is...

Human cake!

The person on the floor was completely flattened by some unknown force. Skin, flesh, internal organs, skull... everything was crushed, leaving only a finger's width of material, spread out into a large area. Blood and tissue fluid were flowing onto the surrounding floor. Judging from the hair, it should be a woman.

At that moment, a man was kneeling beside the human cake, wailing in despair, and trying to pry the woman off the floor by pressing his head against the edge of the cake.

"Oh, it's a wife cake."

Aoi suddenly said something that made it hard to tell whether to call him cold-blooded or to say he had a damn good sense of humor.

Upon hearing this, the male patient, whose face was covered in blood, immediately became enraged. However, since he had no hands and no way to retaliate, he picked up a piece of flesh and spat it at Aoi, making the scene look even more hellish.

Wu Xian ignored the two men, bypassed the human cake area, and walked to the round table in the middle.

This round table is very large.

On the table sits a black stone sculpture, more than two meters tall, covered with twisted stripes. Near the right side, a protruding arm is carved, posing with one finger extended.

The tabletop resembles a clock, but instead of the numbers one, two, three, and four, it is marked with "A, B, C, D..." The chair backs around the round table also have similar markings.

"Damn it!"

A woman's coarse voice came from across the stone sculpture. Wu Xian went around to look and saw a woman sitting opposite him.

The woman wore smoky eye makeup, a cigarette dangling from her slender fingers, and her blue and white striped hospital gown was open, revealing a black lace blouse underneath. Her legs were draped over the table, and she wore black stockings under her hospital trousers. Her voice was a piercing, intimidating cacophony.
"I've been waiting for you for ages. Are those two holes under your eyebrows for spitting out your snot?"

Wu Xian remained silent, even though the woman had completely changed her appearance.

But the way he looked at his eyebrows and the voice that uttered those vulgar words still gave Wu Xian a sense of familiarity.

"Mei Miaoyin!"
