Chapter 694 Han Yu's Story
Han Yu was once an orphan.
This is not surprising, Wu Xian is also an orphan.
Because of the blessed land, the number of orphans in the real world is far greater than that in the normal world.
Han Yu grew up in an orphanage, but because of her thin stature and freckles on her face, she was often laughed at and bullied. The ridicule was not necessarily malicious, but it still left scars in her heart and made her dream of leaving the orphanage as soon as possible.
Whenever she saw someone being picked up by adoptive parents, she would hold on to the railing of the welfare home and watch the car disappear, her eyes filled with envy.
One day, she heard an aunt from the welfare home saying that well-behaved children are more likely to be adopted.
Therefore, the young Han Yu learned to read people's expressions and began to take the initiative to help the aunts, becoming the most well-behaved child in the welfare home.
After a long time, Han Yu was finally taken away from the orphanage by a haggard couple.
When she first arrived at her new home, Han Yu cherished it very much.
She is obviously still a child, but she is always observing people's words and expressions and lives cautiously.
When eating, I dare not look at the delicious food on the table, I dare not make noise for fear of disturbing my parents' rest, I take the initiative to help my adoptive parents with housework, and pretend to like studying...
All of this is to act like a sensible and well-behaved child.
But as she gradually integrated into her new family, she was surprised to find that her adoptive parents were even more observant and cautious than she was.
They held Han Yu in their hands, were extremely patient, and took care of Han Yu's heart in every aspect. They never even yelled at her, and they tried their best to meet all her needs.
This attitude of caring more than treating one's own children broke Han Yu's psychological barriers, allowing her to truly integrate into this new home and truly treat her adoptive parents as her own parents.
Later one day, Han Yu learned about this family's past from his neighbor.
The adoptive parents had a daughter who was a few years older than Han Yu and looked somewhat similar to her. They wanted their daughter to be successful and had extremely high expectations for her since she was young.
For this reason, I enrolled my daughter in various cram schools and set strict requirements for her grades. Even if she got good grades, she would only be scolded because she didn't do better...
Under such high pressure, my daughter was admitted to a top university, and her life stopped on the day she received the admission letter.
It is said that the daughter's expression that day was one of despair and determination.
After hearing this story, Han Yu felt very strange. She knew that she was treated as a substitute, and she also understood why her adoptive parents treated her like a fragile object.
She did not resent her adoptive parents.
Instead, I felt incomprehensible, jealous and angry about the daughter's behavior in the story!
For an orphan like Han Yu, being able to grow up with the company of his biological parents is the greatest fortune, but the daughter in the story easily gave up this fortune.
That night, Han Yu returned home and said to his parents solemnly.
"I will never commit suicide. I will always live my life seriously..."
In order not to hurt the new daughter, the adoptive parents never mentioned the original daughter, but after that day, the spirit tablet of the 'daughter' appeared in the house.
This promise, as well as his concern for his adoptive parents, is also the main reason why Han Yu was able to survive in the first blessed land and persist until now...
……
"They're all crazy!"
Han Yu trembled as she recounted her experience. After the incense was lit, she jumped into the pond, and after a terrifying journey into the darkness, she climbed out of the pond and came here, and saw several people who had come before her.
According to the normal process, all they have to do next is wait for everyone to arrive, climb up the meat mountain and they will be able to get out of the blessed land alive.
But before Han Yu's clothes could dry, Liu Chen, who was the first to jump into the pool, committed suicide without hesitation.
The bloody scene was so exciting that everyone present was shaking all over.
Han Yu simply couldn't understand why Liu Chen suddenly gave up his life when he was fine just now.
Before he died, he was even smiling at everyone!
After Liu Chen, everyone died one after another. The ways of death were all strange, but without exception, they all killed themselves.
This way of death was beyond Han Yu's understanding of the blessed land.
No matter how she advised or how she warned them against the influence of evil spirits, she could not stop these people from committing suicide one after another.
Some killed themselves with poisonous insects, and some used their god-worshiping abilities to blow off their own heads...
Soon, all the people who came here before her turned into cold corpses, leaving her the only one alive.
Those who came after her also followed in her footsteps.
She tried hard to save lives, but she couldn't persuade anyone. The last person who committed suicide was Yuan Buyai, whom Wu Xian had just seen.
Yuan Buyai and Han Yu have been together ever since they fell into that room, and they have developed some comradeship because of their experience in the octagonal pavilion.
But Yuan Buyai also died, and she was unable to save him.
Han Yu grabbed Wu Xian's arm, his eyes full of expectation: "You are different from me, you are a senior family member, I can resist the temptation of evil spirits, you should be able to resist it too, even if only two people can leave the blessed land and return to the real world, it is better than only me being able to go back."
While Han Yu was describing what happened here, Wu Xian remained silent and was calculating the time. Because he had specifically explained it, Han Yu spoke very briefly, so it didn't take much time.
After Han Yu finished speaking, Wu Xian took away her cold hand and asked, "What did the meat mountain you saw look like..."
Han Yu was stunned for a moment: "Can't you see it too? It's piled there, like a huge piece of yellow fat, still oozing with grease..."
Wu Xian was silent for a while. "The meat mountain I saw was not like this, and it was not in that direction. When you introduced the corpse just now, the way the corpse died was also different from what I saw."
Han Yu's face turned pale in an instant. He slowly took two steps back, then forced a smile and said, "You mean, this is an illusion, and what I saw before was fake? That's great, no one is dead yet, the two of us should get out quickly so we can meet up with the others..."
A hint of pity appeared in Wu Xian's eyes.
"I noticed something unusual when I just came in. I could clearly hear your voice before I opened my eyes, but I couldn't hear the words that Yuan Buyai specifically told me to say."
"Besides that, there are too many inconsistencies here, and there is a serious lack of details. I don't believe that the final level we are going to go through will be such a shabby scene."
"The most important evidence is that we did not experience the so-called 'weak water' before we came out of the water."
"That means we are still in the lake!"
"It's just because of that inexplicable tremor that I fell asleep in the water. This place is more like a collective dream affected by evil spirits!"
"There are many ways to escape from a dream, but the best and fastest way is... to commit suicide!"
