Chapter 62: The Book of Reason

The sound of footsteps approached from afar.

As the footsteps gradually approached.

Zhang Hui clearly felt that there were wrinkles in the surrounding space.

Many of them were even stacked together in disorder.

This made him even more fearful.

Just walking alone made the space become chaotic.

If he made a move…

The entire Jiangcheng City might be torn into pieces by his power and fall into an unknown time and space.

At this time, Zhang Hui could not help but feel lucky that the governor had gone to the Northern Zhou.

If anything happened to the governor here…

The entire world would probably be in chaos.

Thinking of this, the owner of this place placed a book in front of Zhang Hui.

“Sir… Please take a look at this book…” He calmly sat on the opposite sofa, picked up the Teacup again, and took a sip. “I think you’ll like it!”

It seemed like nothing more than plain words.

But it made Zhang Hui’s hair stand on end.

It felt like something was gently clinging to the back of his neck.

The cold, slippery, and strange touch made Zhang Hui speechless.

Would he dare not like it?

Definitely not!

Taking a deep breath, he lowered his head to look at the book in front of him.

The cover of the book seemed to be a specimen of some kind of deformed creature.

It seemed to be some kind of plant. It had four gray-white slender stems with flower buds growing on them.

But it also seemed to be some kind of animal. It had a huge hook of a claw, similar to a crab’s claw.

It also had a brain-like organ.

Under this organ, there were tentacles drooping down.

When Zhang Hui looked at it, the thing actually opened its eyes.

To be precise, it should be a secondary eye on one of its organs.

“Rationality…”

“Mortals…”

“You should never remain rational…”

A certain voice whispered in Zhang Hui’s ear, “Look… This is the end of the alleged people that are always rational!”

The voice disappeared.

And then the book in front of him had undergone some extremely mysterious changes.

The cover—which was probably the body of that creature—slowly melted, bit by bit, and finally merged into the pages.

And the name of the book slowly emerged from the cover.

The Book of Reason.

This was its name.

It was simple and easy to remember, and it was also very easy to understand.

But looking at the title of the book, Zhang Hui roughly understood that this was a book that taught people to remain rational, and to strengthen their spirit. Finally, they could separate themselves from the body, and their spirit would last forever.

The author of this book was the monster that looked like a plant and an animal.

However, it was clear that the monster was not strong enough.

Therefore, it became a specimen.

Even its books became the enemy’s spoils of war.

In the end, it was displayed in the ancient God’s collection hall.

It became a commodity.

These were the contents that inexplicably appeared in Zhang Hui’s mind when he looked at the title of the book on the cover.

Zhang Hui turned her head to look at Situ He.

Situ He shook his head gently at him.

“So…” Zhang Hui thought “Am I the only one who can see what’s on the cover of this book?”

This was what he had agreed with Situ He beforehand.

Thus, Zhang Hui raised him head and looked at the ancient god sitting opposite him.

The fire in his eyes gradually rose.

Zhang Hui looked at him.

The fear and uneasiness in his heart had reached its peak.

This was because Zhang Hui realized that he was standing in front of him as if he were naked.

All of his secrets were exposed beyond a shadow of doubt.

Very few people knew that he, the top expert of the black-clothed guards of the Federation Empire and the protector of the imperial palace, actually had a fatal danger he kept concealed.

And that was that his body was already on the verge of collapse.

That was why he had retreated from the front line of the black-robed guards to the imperial palace.

In name, he was protecting the imperial family, but in reality, he was recuperating from his injuries. He was also barely surviving.

He knew this well, and so did the viceroy.

His body could only support him long enough for three more attacks.

After three more times, his body would collapse.

Without his body, he would not be able to live.

However, the book in front of him gave him a new choice.

His body was dead.

As long as his spirit or soul was strong enough, he could transfer to another body.

Just like the framed monster, it had changed its body at least ten times.

Moreover, it was a body of a different race.

The body, to the monster, was already similar to the shell of a hermit crab.

Then she thought about the book situ he had bought here.

It was also aimed directly at his shortcomings and bottlenecks.

Zhang Hui knew that all his machinations and schemes were nothing like a child’s game of chess in the eyes of the ancient god.

The god was not unlike an adult who was playing with children, watching everything unfold with a game mentality.

Beads of sweat started forming on Zhang Hui’s forehead at the thought of this.

Because this meant that all his schemes with Situ He had been seen through by the god.

Then, how would the adults treat those naughty children who tried to misbehave?

This humbled Zhang Hui a great deal.

“Sir…” he asked, “I wonder, how much you’ll pay for this book?”

Ling Pingan walked to the counter happily and took out two cards.

Then, he handed the two cards to the customer. “104 Yuan!”

“Sir…”

“You can pay by scanning the code!”

“Of course, you can also pay in cash!”

The young bookstore owner was a little excited when he spoke.

It had been a month!

It had been a month!

Were they finally opening?

Zhang Hui looked at the two cards that were handed to her.

Drops of blood and tears lingered in them.

Wails echoed in the vortex of the cards.

It was just as Situ He had described.

Zhang Hui knew he could whip out his phone and scan the code on the two cards.

And then, in doing so, what would be deducted would be his soul or lifespan.

But unlike Situ He…

Zhang Hui didn’t think too much.

He did not even hesitate.

In fact, before entering this bookstore, Zhang Hui had already made up his mind.

He was an orphan.

When he was born, he suffered from a congenital disease, so his birth mother abandoned him in a restroom in the hospital.

It was the hospital’s nurses who found him and rescued him.

Then, it was the Federal Empire’s National Salvation Foundation who raised him, treated him, and even put him through university.

Finally, before he graduated from university, inspiration kicked in by chance and he became an extraordinary person.

Then, he was admitted into the black-shirted guards.

So all in all, he was raised by the country.

It was the taxes paid by the people that allowed him to live until today, that he became such a powerful figure today.

One had to know when to be grateful

People who did not know how to be grateful were even worse than animals!

“I am but a remnant of my body…” He took out his phone and calmly scanned the code. Under Situ He’s watchful gaze that glowed red, he scanned the code.

Beep.

Zhang Hui felt that his soul had been stamped by a certain existence.

At that moment, he felt that there was something extra in his soul.

His intuition told him that as long as he died…

His soul would no longer be under his control.

He might also become a monster in this strange and terrifying bookstore, or a member of the depths of the fog.

Then he might know the true origin of the owner of the bookstore.

But as a servant, or as a guard…

Serving the owner forever, like one of those monsters.
