This is a narrow square room. There is nothing except a low, calf-high wooden table in the center of the room. On the wall opposite the few people, there is a small round window, and the sunlight is lazily shining through the small window.
Come flying in.
Apart from the food Rongfa brought, there was only a piece of beige paper and a pen on the table.
This is just an ordinary room.
Rong Fa and Qu Lianfan looked at each other.
"This is..." Qu Lianfan hesitated for a moment, then said it, "Returning Karma Prison."
"Return to Karma Prison?"
"Some deceased who committed serious crimes during their lifetimes have arrived in the court and need to pay off their sins in this life before they can start the next life," Qu Lianfan's voice was muffled, "Other rooms on the fifth floor are also in the same state.
A place of business.”
Cen Hua lowered his head and smiled sadly.
"I know...it's what we living people think of as hell," Xiaolan suddenly realized, "and there happen to be eighteen rooms here."
Rongfa nodded, "Where Cen Hua is located is the deepest karma prison."
Xiaolan was a little surprised, "The deepest karma prison deals with those who have committed the heaviest sins?"
Rongfa nodded.
Xiaolan looked around again.
This is completely different from the hell imagined by living people.
and……
"Why did Cen Hua end up in the deepest karma prison?" Xiao Lan said, "Obviously she is just..."
"I am a divine decree sent from heaven. I should be the messenger of heaven's will and carry out the execution of heaven's will. However, I betrayed the law of life and death and tried to change the fate of others." Cen Hua's eyes drifted far away. "I have a divine destiny.
But he challenged fate and destroyed fate. This is the heaviest sin."
Challenge destiny.
Is it sin?
Xiaolan wanted to open her mouth to refute, but she saw the obstruction in the eyes of Rong Fa and Qu Lianfan, so she changed the topic.
"But you...uh, okay...by the way, living people think of hell as scary, but it doesn't look that scary here."
With pens and paper, sunshine, and Rongfa delivering meals to your door on time, it can be called a quality life.
Qu Lianfan glanced warily towards the door and sighed, "So, you must not tell this matter."
"ah?"
Rong Fa laughed and said, "Don't misunderstand the Karma Hell, Karma Hell, but this is the most painful place in the world. The rules of the world are like this. Even for small sins, you have to pay a price."
Facing Xiaolan's confused expression, Qu Lianfan lowered his voice and gave an explanation, "Cen Hua opened the back door because... Lao Mu opened the back door... so you must not tell anyone!"
Lao Mu? Opened the back door?
That person doesn't look like he would open the back door for others.
"Lao Mu is a good person," Rong Fa said seriously. "According to Cen Hua's sins, she should have spent eternity in the deepest karma prison to repay her karma. However, after Cen Hua served seven years in prison, Lao Mu claimed to change Cen Hua.
Hua’s punishment turned this place into what it is now..."
"Although Lao Mu said that the pain of loneliness is the most painful, we all know that Lao Mu actually can't bear it anymore," Qu Lianfan said, "After all, Cen Hua was his most promising successor back then..."
Cen Hua sighed apologetically.
"And even during those seven years, Lao Mu allowed me to deliver food to her," Rong Fa pointed to the rice bowl on the table, "Cen Hua is a living person, and she is different from other deceased people who have fallen into the prison of repaying karma.
If she doesn't eat, she will have to endure an additional punishment of hunger and cold. Cen Hua is also a very good eater and has a large appetite..."
"Hey, hey, hey," Cen Hua smiled and raised his head, "You can skip this point."
Xiaolan came close to Cen Hua and stared at that gentle face.
This magical feeling.
Cen Hua reached out and stroked the messy hair on Xiaolan's head, "Look, you already know the ending. If you are given another chance, will you still think that our decision is correct?"
"I never thought that was the right decision," Xiaolan's brows trembled, "That was my decision. If I had to do it again, I would still make the same choice."
Cen Hua was stunned for a moment, then smiled a little sadly, "Me too."
She grabbed Xiaolan's hands on her knees.
Xiaolan felt the heat and roughness of Cen Hua's palm.
This is the hand that has endured seven years of extreme torture.
Cen Hua's dark pupils were facing Xiaolan's, and Xiaolan felt that Cen Hua's dense eyes seemed to tremble.
"Who are you……"
I am.
Cen Hua did not say any more.
The silence in the air flowed for a while longer.
The two just looked at each other.
"Okay, okay," after a long time, Rong Fa bent down and poked Xiaolan's shoulder, "Little girl, Cen Hua still needs to eat."
"Oh, yes, I have to send you back quickly," Qu Lianfan waved his flag and finally remembered his work, "Stop being so affectionate, let's go."
When Xiaolan stood up, Cen Hua pulled her gently.
Xiaolan lowered his head.
"I hope you can succeed," Cen Hua said with an inexplicable emotion in his eyes, "Xiaolan."
She let go.
Qu Lianfan took Xiaolan and walked to the door. Rongfa came out to see off the guests. Standing outside the door, Xiaolan turned his head and looked at Cen Hua, who had been sitting on the ground.
She silently raised her chopsticks and started eating.
There is no looking back.
Rongfa closed the door.
"It seems that I was right to bring you here. Cen Hua has not been so happy for a long time," Rong Fa said enthusiastically. "It's a pity that you are a living person and can't come to accompany her often."
"I can come over often to stay with her, and Lingluo," Qu Lianfan said.
"Cen Hua doesn't like you very much, she's just embarrassed to say it."
"You're talking nonsense!"
"She thinks you guys are too noisy..."
Being made so noisy by the two of them, Xiaolan's thoughts were all messed up, and she started laughing along with the two of them.
"You...your name is Xiaolan, right?" Rong Fa said, "After you die, you must remember to come and see Cen Hua."
"I will."
"...It's best to come early..."
"..."
Xiaolan accepted this blessing.
Rong Fa sent the two of them to the corner of the stairs. Qu Lianfan waved to him, "Okay, go back and have dinner with your beloved Cen Hua."
Rong Fa muttered "Don't get me wrong" and "Cen Hua and I are pure" and quickly disappeared in front of the two of them.
Qu Lianfan took Xiaolan down the steps, and the smile on his face slowly disappeared. Xiaolan thought he was still worried about Wu Ren, but within a few seconds, Qu Lianfan actually started sobbing.
"You...what's wrong with you?" Xiaolan suddenly panicked.
"Poor Cen Hua..." Qu Lianfan's eyes filled with tears, "I remember again how Cen Hua was dragged off the execution stake..."
