Chapter 359 Evolutionary Path

Until she saw the social changes she recorded in detail and her own reflections on society, Chen Yan finally couldn't help it anymore.

'The things she recorded...the events and history of these guest officials are a valuable asset from any aspect!'

'But she hid all these records in a secret corner, and no one knew about them except her.'

'Even the director... When the director came, I followed him down the chimney to have a look. The director was really an arrogant guy. He actually showed disdain for her records and ignored this valuable knowledge.

Turn a blind eye.'

‘What a precious wealth this is.’ Chen Yan sighed again.

Not only did Raz hide his records, he never told anyone about them.

As time passed, Chen Yan finally felt her confused state - although she was recording, she had no idea why she wanted to write down those things.

She was just doing simple repetition, meaningless repetition.

During this observation process, Chen Yan discovered another thing that was wrong:

'It seems like a piece of memory is missing.'

In a cycle that was long enough to cause mental collapse, Chen Yan finally discovered that the memory of Raz's evolution astray due to "harmful unknown knowledge" had never occurred in countless memory cycles.

It happened before his eyes.

'The day she came into contact with [harmful unknown knowledge], her mind was distorted, and she began to think about [the true meaning of records], she disappeared.'

'Something must have happened that day...that day must be hidden deeper in my memory!'

'How to reach the deeper parts of memory...'

At this moment, Chen Yan suddenly remembered the thick fog that enveloped Raz's entire memory world.

'No...it can't be!'

For a time, countless thoughts came to my mind.

‘What if... what if that thick fog is really some kind of [symbol]?

What if the "dense fog" symbolizes Raz's "covering up" of certain memories that he doesn't want to remember?

[Dense fog] itself symbolizes covering, shielding, etc...'

Chen Yan really didn't want to rashly come into contact with the unknown existence, so he endured his temper and carefully observed Raz's one hundred and thirteen years of memories from beginning to end.

This time, he not only paid attention to what Raz was doing, but also observed every move of everyone around Raz, even everything that happened on this small piece of land.

But unfortunately, he still found nothing unusual.

The day when Raz's mind was distorted and he began to think about the "true meaning of the record" did not appear in front of him.

When he saw Robert Justice's big, unshaven face again, Chen Yan finally made a decision.

'Until now, among all her memories, the only thing I have not explored is what is behind the thick fog.'

'If I want to escape this repetitive cycle, the only chance is behind the thick fog.'

Chen Yan once again stood in front of the thick fog.

He was silent for a moment, then took a step forward and entered the thick fog.

A cold touch appeared, followed by a subtle, single murmur.

He had heard this voice thousands of times, and the moment it appeared, he realized that it was Raz's voice.

With his eyes in a trance, the thick fog dissipated, and a dim yellow light shone into the hall in front of him.

There are various girls in cool clothes coming and going in the hall. Most of them are dragging various men through the corridors. There are also a few who are leaning on the corners, smoking cigarettes, waiting for the men who enter the door to come towards them.

come over.

And in the corner of the hall, in an inconspicuous position, the old man could no longer walk. She was wearing tattered clothes and sitting on an ordinary chair with dull eyes. There was a book under her palm.

Blank notebook.

Raz is too old to hold a pen.

She just sat there blankly, and a kind-hearted girl would help her wipe the drool from the corner of her mouth when she passed by.

But that's all.

They knew that her life was coming to an end, and in exchange for using this small building, they would help her solve some of her life difficulties.

But it's just to help her deal with simple life.

Their kindness was obviously not enough. She hadn't taken a shower for an unknown amount of time and her whole body was already stinking.

Chen Yan came to Raz, knelt down, looked at her dull eyes, and sighed.

"Raz, are you going to die?"

Raz looked at his face with dull eyes, and said like a flashback:

"You...you are..."

Chen Yan said:

"I am Chen Yan...I am the second Chen Yan."

Raz’s eyes were in a trance:

"I'm sorry...I...don't remember you..."

If you put it this way, the memory of Raz should stay before his death as a human being.

Chen Yan asked:

"Raz, what else can't you let go of?"

Raz thought about it seriously, his dry lips trembled slightly, and he expressed his inner doubts:

"What are the uses of my records?"

Chen Yan patiently listened to her unclear words and replied:

"That's a valuable asset. People can use the knowledge in those records to do a lot of things and avoid a lot of mistakes."

Raz smiled, an ugly smile:

"But, that knowledge is my treasure, why should I... share it with others?"

When she said these words, Chen Yan was shocked to realize that every time she said a word, some dim "shadow" would break out of her body.

Every time the "shadow" breaks away from her body, her body will become "transparent"——

When she finished saying this, her body had become transparent to the naked eye.

It was also at this time that Chen Yan saw a thick fog spreading not far behind her, close to the wall.

At the end of the passage where the thick fog spreads, there is a deep pool hidden in the dark forest.

The thick mist overflowing from the deep pool turned into a long mist-like snake, with its tail always soaked in the deep pool. It swam along the ground to her feet, and climbed up her body along her legs.

The moment the foggy snake came into contact with the "shadow", the shadow seemed to be guided by the thick fog, struggling to follow the foggy snake into the deep pool!

After seeing this scene, Chen Yan suddenly realized that the deep pool, the forest, and the mist-like poisonous snakes were the [harmful unknown knowledge] that led Raz to the wrong path of evolution!

Chen Yan was thinking rapidly in his head. The smell of the symbol [fog-like snake] was simply too strong. Not to mention the two separate symbols [fog] and [poisonous snake]. Even if [fog] and [fog] were combined,

When [Poisonous Snake] is combined as a symbol, he can easily find many corresponding meanings.

But in order to prevent the "shadow" from leaving Raz's body, Chen Yan had to stop thinking and asked:

"If you don't want to share it with others...if your records are buried in the dust with you and disappear from this world, what's the point?"

A look of panic appeared on Raz's face:

"What did you say...how is it possible..."

When she said this, the shadow did not leave her body, which made Chen Yan sigh in relief.

Chen Yan continued to ask:

"Laz, what is the purpose of simply recording?"

After the confusion, Raz's eyes gradually became firm:

"No matter what... I insist on recording everything. Recording has become my life, and that is the meaning of my existence."

This is not the first time she has said such things.

But the difference from before was that when she finished speaking, the shadow in her body almost broke away from her body, and in the blink of an eye, only her feet remained in her body!

Seeing this phenomenon, combined with the symbolic meaning of [Misty Long Snake], Chen Yan suddenly realized——

The reason why Raz was able to continue recording in a [spiritual] way after her physical body died was because of her strong obsession——

This unreasonable and incorrect obsession supported her soul and led her to the wrong path of evolution!

After hearing her answer and combining it with everything he had seen before, Chen Yan was almost certain:

Among the symbols of [Misty Snake Shadow], [Fog] represents the chaos of thinking, without further thinking; while [Snake] represents "being guided by wrong ideas and having no own opinion".
