Chapter 1 Ancient Temple in the Mountains

 "In this world, I hope you can do better than me..."

As the BOSS on the computer screen murmured before he died, Xu Yuan slowly leaned on the gaming chair behind him with bloodshot eyes. The screen in front of him also started to scroll the producer list along with the CG of clearance:

"Finally all achievements have been cleared."

After more than a month of staying up late and working hard, "Cangyuan", which is said to be the most complex game in China, was finally cleared online by him.

As a 2.5D pixel style game, the plot of "Cangyuan" is a bit too complicated.

Every choice the player faces during the game will affect the changes in the world line. There will never be a situation where you choose different options and return to the same world line after a few sentences.
p>

Different choices may even affect the relationship between characters in the game, resulting in changes in the BOSS to be faced at the end of the level.

There are more than twenty endings with different styles, giving players a new plot experience every time they play.

"With the current technology, only 2.5D pixel style games can carry a plot of this size."

After reading every scene carefully, Xu Yuan was satisfied and turned off the power, endured his sleepiness and went to the bathroom to wash up, climbed into bed, and habitually recalled the plot of the game:

"It's finally over. The heroines in this game all have pretty good characters, and the plot is also good. But the last BOSS is a pity. The dozen or so endings that led to the final BOSS were all killed by the plot of the dog writer."

"And after playing it a few times and getting familiar with the game mechanics, the difficulty becomes easier. Huh... I hope "Cangyuan II Western World" can be a little more difficult..."

"Haah..."

"I'm so sleepy... I don't want to think about it anymore. I have to go to the old man's company tomorrow to help. I've been waiting for more than a month. I think I will be scolded to death by him tomorrow."

While muttering softly, Xu Yuan fell into a deep sleep due to sleepiness...

...

...

...

"Boom——"

There was thunder and lightning, and heavy rain poured down.

Accompanied by bursts of flames and the crackling sound of firewood burning, Xu Yuan opened his eyes with some pain in the chaos.

"Is it raining...Tsk, my head hurts...I think there is Fenbite at home."

The feeling of a splitting headache made Xu Yuan subconsciously want to get up and look for a painkiller in the medicine cabinet. However, when his pupils were completely focused, he was stunned by the dim environment in front of him.

Where is this?

Where is my home?

The once familiar ceiling was gone, and a strange abandoned Buddhist hall came into Xu Yuan's eyes.

Old and dilapidated beams and wooden columns.

A stone Buddha statue with a broken arm sitting on a lotus platform.

The bonfire sways with the cold wind.

and,

The woman in black with a gauzy face sitting quietly by the campfire.

"...."

Narrowing his eyes, Xu Yuan tried to understand what happened to him.

But after thinking for a long time, I had no clue.

Now looking at the strange environment in front of him, after repeatedly confirming that the current body is not his own, the only thing Xu Yuan can confirm is that he seems to have traveled through time.

The source of the headache just now was not the sequelae of memory fusion, but the physical bulge in the back of the brain.

The time travel without memory made Xu Yuan feel extremely unfamiliar with everything around him, and he looked around in the dilapidated Buddhist hall.

The pouring rain fell like bead curtains from the eaves along the old tiles, and the patter of rain splashed ripples in the puddles outside the temple. Just outside the bonfire, there was

Bottomless darkness.

Like the general public, Xu Yuan has also fantasized about time travel, but that is just because Ye Gong loves dragons.

He has always had a clear understanding of himself. Without cheats, he might not survive more than three chapters in some literary works.

The gloomy environment in front of him is obviously very similar to the kind of work in which he cannot survive more than three chapters.

The winter rain is very cold, and waves of coldness keep coming to my heart.

By the dim light of the bonfire, Xu Yuan's eyes wandered repeatedly inside the room.

The temple hall is very big, but when the prosperity and incense no longer flourish, the once majestic Buddha becomes strange in the dim hall.

After glancing around, Xu Yuan's eyes finally fell on the only living creature besides him in the temple.

The woman in black quietly closed her eyes and sat cross-legged by the bonfire, with a sword lying flat beside her.

The light from the bonfire illuminated her snowy skin, with a black gauze covering her face, and her long black straight hair like a waterfall scattered randomly behind her. As the cold wind blew, the black robe vaguely outlined the woman's graceful curves.

.

Rainy nights, ruined temples in the mountains, beautiful women, these things put together make it difficult for Xu Yuan not to think of some strange things.

In the silence, Xu Yuan slowly stood up from the ground.

Over the years of helping the family in business, the old man has led him to see many people and things, whether clean or unclean.

Although the surrounding environment was a bit strange, after recognizing the reality, Xu Yuan knew clearly what he had to do now.

His body seemed to be injured, and his clothes were thin. At least he had to sit by the bonfire. The coldness of the winter night rain was already freezing him to death.

Xu Yuan stared at the woman in front of him and slowly walked towards her step by step.

The woman in black didn't seem to hear the footsteps, and still sat quietly by the bonfire with her eyes closed and meditative.

The gauze covering her face couldn't hide her temperament, she was so quiet and beautiful.

As soon as he came closer, Xu Yuan's pupils suddenly shrank.

On the ground next to the woman, a huge arm came into view.

The steps paused, and the heartbeat accelerated suddenly, but then suddenly relaxed again.

Although this arm is lifelike, it is not human and has the texture of stone.

I looked back at the huge Buddha statue with a broken arm that I just saw.

I think it must have been broken.

Using the stone arm as a stool, Xu Yuan sat down and stared at the woman's flawless profile covered by gauze.

Two seconds of silence in the bleak cold wind,

The woman in black suddenly slowly opened her eyes as cold as ink and looked towards Xu Yuan.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

Suddenly,

"Boom——"

A thunder and lightning pierced the dark night sky, illuminating everything inside and outside the ruined temple.

The light flashed away, and Xu Yuan looked at the woman, but Xu Yuan caught a glimpse of something outside the temple door.

Corpse...

With the flash of lightning during the thunder, the puddles in the open space outside the main entrance of the temple were full of broken corpses, and the sticky blood continued to flow with the rain...

Xu Yuan's somewhat hazy thoughts were suddenly awakened, his heartbeat began to accelerate uncontrollably, and his hands hidden in his sleeves began to tremble uncontrollably.

His family does not do business in the Golden Triangle, and the scene of corpses on the ground is a bit beyond his ability to accept.

Biting the tip of his tongue suddenly, Xu Yuan tried hard to suppress his increasingly panicked thoughts and tried to use reason to analyze the situation in front of him.

The pain at the tip of his tongue made Xu Yuan finally calm down a little, and he breathed steadily and stared at the woman in black in front of him.

The lightning disappeared, and the outside of the temple was once again swallowed up by darkness, and it was gloomy.

But the scene just now has been engraved in Xu Yuan's mind.

Every corpse holding a weapon outside the door was uniformly dressed and died in different postures, but when they died, their toes were almost all pointing towards the ancient temple.

In other words, they came from the same place and wanted to break into this ancient temple for some unknown purpose.

The sudden sight made Xu Yuan think a lot in an instant, and he looked at the woman beside him slightly stiffly.

He found that he seemed to be sitting next to an incredible woman.

There were only two of him and her in the temple, and his body was visibly weak. The corpses outside that wanted to break into could only be the work of this woman.

The dark sky outside is constantly thundering, and the cold wind is constantly filtering in from the broken temple door. The woman in black clothes and the noble man in brocade silk are sitting around a bonfire. Outside the door is a bloody mess hidden in the shadows.

In silence,

"You...are blocking me."

The woman's voice is as light as ice, smooth and indifferent.

"...."

Hearing this, Xu Yuan was stunned.

Did he block her?

Xu Yuan soon realized that the woman in black was not looking at him, but at behind him.

Behind you?

A trace of doubt arose in my heart.

I just observed that although the Buddhist hall is very large, at this angle, there is nothing left behind him except the huge Buddha statue with a severed arm.

Doubt made Xu Yuan glance back subconsciously.

And it was at this glance that a chill instantly rushed from the tailbone to the forehead.

Xu Yuan saw a pair of legs.

His calves are as tall as when he stands up.

The eyes move upward little by little,

The huge stone Buddha came quietly behind him from the lotus platform at some point.

The strange cracked face was hidden in the shadow of the roof, seemingly smiling, looking down at him and the woman beside him.

"..."

My brain shut down for a moment,

The science that he had always believed in could not explain the phenomenon in front of him, and the fear of the unknown instantly exploded in Xu Yuan's heart, and he could no longer suppress it.

Xu Yuan's breathing accelerated uncontrollably. The strangely huge Buddha statue, which was seven or eight meters high, was close at hand, and his body was as stiff as falling into an ice cave.

After being stunned for several seconds, Xu Yuan began to forcefully control his stiff body and move to the side.

He...he has to get out of the way quickly.

His heart was beating violently as if it was about to burst out of his chest. This strange scene was beyond his cognition and acceptance.

At this moment, Xu Yuan suddenly caught a glimpse of the woman in black from the corner of his eye.

As the giant Buddha approached, the woman in black, whose face was covered with gauze, did not get up. She still sat quietly where she was. She didn't even take the sword beside her. The cold expression on her flawless face did not change at all, she just stared calmly.

Buddha statue.

The calmness and ease of the woman in black gradually gave Xu Yuan a sense of peace of mind.

While shrinking to the corner of the Buddhist hall to calm down the fear in his heart, he carefully looked at the Buddha and the girl in the middle of the Buddhist hall.

Fortunately...Fortunately, this woman looks very strong.

Xu Yuan thought of the corpse outside the temple.

The thing that scared him just now became Xu Yuan's reassurance at this moment.

Xu Yuan could not imagine himself facing that strange "living Buddha" alone in this deep mountain Buddhist temple.

The woman and the Buddha were silent for two seconds, and the chill of chill spread little by little, and Xu Yuan also took this opportunity to carefully retreat to the corner of the ruined temple.

Suddenly,

The strange "living Buddha" moved.

Its huge body did not affect its speed at all. Xu Yuan could hardly see the speed, and the giant palm fell with a crash.

"Boom——"

In the Buddhist hall, the ground trembled simultaneously, a giant palm fell to the ground, and the only bright bonfire in the room was extinguished.

Xu Yuan's vision suddenly fell into darkness.

After the light disappeared, the voice became the only protagonist in the darkness, with waves of huge tremors and roars joining together, one after another.

Listening to the noise coming not far away, Xu Yuan, who was huddled in the corner, felt his heart beat fast, and the fingertips of his clenched fists were embedded in his palms without even realizing it.

Suddenly,

"Buzz——"

A loud sword cry echoed inside and outside the temple,

A blue sword light flashed in the darkness,

Everything returned to peace in an instant.

"Boom——"

There was a thunder and lightning in the sky, illuminating everything in the Buddhist hall at this moment.

Xu Yuan finally took advantage of this to see the scene over there.

The woman's black dress was not stained with any dust, her face was calm and her sword was sheathed, but the head of the huge "living Buddha" she was facing had disappeared.

Xu Yuan is in a daze.

"Dong——"

A black shadow suddenly fell in front of him, and the smoke and dust raised made Xu Yuan frown and take a step back.

It’s the huge head of the ‘Living Buddha’.

The kind eyes on the head were staring at him with a dim light.

When Xu Yuan saw this, he subconsciously wanted to hide next to the woman in black over there. This kind of weird thing was too dangerous.

After the thunder, everything returns to darkness.

Xu Yuan silently considered his words in his mind, and while walking in the direction the woman had just taken, he was thinking about asking the other party something.

And at this time,

The huge Buddha head suddenly made a faint sound and whispered weakly:

"Third Young Master..."
