Chapter 384: Lu Yuan: Have I Transmigrated into a Horror Story? Or

~7 min read 1,297 words

Lu Yuan stroked his chin, carefully looking at the thing before him!

The book yellowed, yellow through and through.

Especially looking at its worn appearance, it seemed to have been flipped through more than once.

"What exactly is this?"

Lu Yuan picked it up and began to read.

The firelight swayed gently.

It brought light to Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan glanced a few times, and a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes.

It was merely a history book, writing many things about this place.

For example, how King Qi became King Qi.

And, information about several contemporary managers of the tavern.

Until…… Lu Yuan lingered on a person.

This person wore white clothing.

The clothing bore painted lotuses; observing her slender figure and beautiful visage was enough to attest to her beauty.

She was inherently beautiful, like a painting.

If she were a real person! Wouldn't that be...!

Lu Yuan sucked in a breath of cold air, realizing that this person seemed somewhat similar to Qin Gu Niang!

Qin Gu Niang is very beautiful!

Especially her every frown and smile are enough to captivate the heart and soul.

To be honest, he kept pondering why the person he portrayed had never made a move on Qin Gu Niang.

If it were an ordinary person, they'd have likely made a move already!

He actually suspected that he himself was indeed that person.

Those earlier memories had long been erased.

But who could erase his memories?

What Lu Yuan didn't know was that he had already died once when he entered the conference hall.

And he died in front of King Qi.

Bright red blood stained the ground, also staining Lu Yuan's hair.

Qin Gu Niang supported the zither, crying out in terror.

Only King Qi, his eyes were unfocused.

Then his pupils instantly turned red, and when they recovered again, it was the moment Lu Yuan re-entered the conference hall.

This is why the outside world cannot find Lu Yuan!

They had long discovered Lu Yuan's disappearance, yet could find no clues!

Thus came about this present scene.

Lu Yuan lightly furrowed his brows.

A hint of killing intent surfaced in his eyes.

If that's the case, King Qi would have serious problems?

Qin Gu Niang too!

Lu Yuan thought, he flipped the pages again, finally arriving at King Qi's page.

King Qi's name is just Qi Cheng.

He came here three hundred years ago; at that time, this place was in chaos, and the emperor heavily relied on him.

Afterwards he overthrew the local administration, becoming King Qi, becoming the emperor's left and right arms.

King Qi established a new administration, allowing people's lives to return to normal once more.

He was a genuine great hero.

At least in the diary, that's how he appears.

He is one who restores order from chaos.

One who gives everything for the country, seeking no reward.

Does King Qi really have such goodness?

Lu Yuan stroked his chin.

Every character brims with joy for King Qi!

As if the whole world were King Qi.

King Qi is truly strong, strong to a certain extent.

So strong that everyone seems to want to praise him!

Lu Yuan lamented, a person this formidable—wouldn't the emperor be afraid?

The emperor said: "What am I afraid of? Isn't it fine to be a hands-off manager?"

Moreover, King Qi merely appears to have authority; I'm not that foolish to actually give him power!

"Since there are so many books here?"

Lu Yuan put the book back in its place, then continued reading.

When he reached a certain spot, he habitually went to a certain place, his finger lightly pressing on a book.

"Click" sound.

The book instantly fell out.

That is a small booklet; the booklet is simple, and strange language records events on it.

Lu Yuan examined it carefully and said he could not understand it at all.

"What is this? Why would it be hidden in such a secret thing?"

Lu Yuan thought to himself, his finger moved slightly, and he touched the red small booklet.

The small booklet instantly flashed with light; soon, the sealed memory loosened a bit.

Lu Yuan was about to cry out in surprise, but instinctively covered his mouth.

This counts as a condition-triggered covering of his mouth.

Lu Yuan was startled again, and sweat soaked his clothes.

Yes, he discovered something.

His body had many instinctive reactions.

It was as if he had died many times before.

Wait! What if he really had died many times?

It seemed something in his mind was loosening, and the pain made him cover his head.

He strove to adjust his breathing.

"Damn, is this the age of cultivation or a horror event!"

"No! It seems I just forgot something!"

"I seem to have forgotten something very important!"

Lu Yuan covered his head, constantly thinking in his heart about the thing that had just flashed by.

Yes, since he arrived, there has been no news of it!

What on earth is it!

Lu Yuan shouted in his heart, but ultimately got no response.

"Indeed, we must find a way to break the seal!"

Lu Yuan thought to himself.

Thinking of this.

The cool breeze swayed, and Lu Yuan's inner self fell into complete chaos.

Memory seemed to shatter again, and even the memories of Gu Qingwan and Su Liyan were about to disappear.

It gradually became blurred.

No! If he completely forgot Su Liyan and Gu Qingwan, it would be worse than killing him!

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan immediately activated his cultivation, forcing himself to calm down.

But cultivation could only prevent his memory from shattering too quickly; it still could not fully restore his memory.

What to do?

Lu Yuan panicked completely.

Just when he was at a loss, he noticed the envelope placed on the table.

There seemed to be some red spots there!

Lu Yuan stood up, walked to the table, and opened the envelope inside.

It read: "Stay awake! Only after enduring past three o'clock can you recover! Remember! Do not let yourself faint from pain! This is just fantasy! True fantasy!"

Lu Yuan? Fantasy?

Why is it fantasy? But the pain of his soul and memory being torn away is real!

Could it be?

Does this house also have a problem?

Lu Yuan didn't have time to think further.

At this moment, he felt unbearable pain in his head, a wave of dizziness surged to his heart, and he could faint at any time.

Lu Yuan had no choice; he could only bite his tongue, and a bloody sweet taste lingered on the tip of his tongue.

It quickly spread in his mouth.

His tongue had once been wrapped in medicinal herbs; as long as he lightly bit it, it would relieve any symptom.

Indeed, after his tongue was injured, his drowsiness lessened somewhat.

Even the pain was greatly alleviated.

"Indeed, life-saving things still work."

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan acted against common sense, directly took out medicine and put it in his mouth.

Whenever it hurt, he would take it, and he directly endured until past three o'clock.

Then he turned over, lay sprawled on the bed, and was about to fall asleep.

It's not that he said so; it really hurts.

The pain left him somewhat at a loss.

Just as Lu Yuan fell asleep, a chill suddenly descended upon him.

It stretched out its claw to grab Lu Yuan, but it stopped directly in midair.

What the heck? What's going on?

Do you still need to set up a barrier while sleeping?

Isn't it supposed that once the pain ends, you fall asleep right away?

Lu Yuan? I certainly know! Do you really think I actually fell asleep??? (End of chapter)
