Chapter 060 Breakthrough
I said, "Meiyu, could it be that your father had an affair with Lin Xiaohui, and your mother found out, and then poured hot water on him?"
Before she could finish her words, I knew I was in trouble. Chen Meiyu looked at me with eyes as sharp as needles, as if she wanted to kill me.
Fortunately, I had no form and her gaze was still a little scattered, otherwise she would have really beaten me.
Li Daming quickly advised her not to be angry.
Chen Meiyu burst into tears: "Don't you dare slander my parents? I know best what kind of people they are. I wouldn't have lived this long without my parents. What do you know?!"
I said in my heart, of course your parents treat you well, who knows how they treat outsiders. But I can't say this out loud.
Li Daming said, "Don't make blind guesses. Uncle Chen must be at the bottom of the stairs. We'll know once we take a look."
Chen Meiyu wiped her eyes and walked into the dark staircase first. Li Daming and I followed behind. Li Daming didn't know where I was, so he could only lower his voice and whisper, "Lao Lin, don't be so blunt about some things in the future. You can't say that even if it's true."
"Damn it." I was a little angry: "Our goal is to help Chen Jian return to life. There will be many more tests later. If everyone just takes care of her emotions, there will be nothing to do."
Li Daming didn't know what to say. It was getting darker as he walked down. Li Daming complained in the darkness: "Why is it so cold?"
I have no body and cannot feel the temperature. At this time, Chen Meiyu's figure vaguely appeared in front of him. Li Daming walked over with his arms around her shoulders, stood beside her and asked what was wrong.
Chen Meiyu said: "Listen."
A melody came from the depths of the stairs , and there was a light at the source of the music. It seemed to be a mobile phone with the screen on.
Li Daming was surprised: "Your father brought a cell phone with him when he came in?"
"I don't know either. I didn't look closely at the time," said Chen Meiyu.
We went down the stairs and there was a corridor. A cell phone was lying on the floor, ringing non-stop. It seemed like someone was calling.
Li Daming and Chen Meiyu looked at each other, and he bent down to pick up the phone. The screen was on, showing a missed call. Chen Meiyu was surprised and said, "This is my father's phone."
Li Daming hesitated and answered the call on his phone. There was a rustling sound of electricity, followed by the sound of a woman crying. She cried very sadly, "wuwuwu" non-stop.
No one spoke. It was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Li Daming managed to speak in a hoarse voice, "Who are you?"
"Chen Jian, I'm Xiaohui, why don't you come to see me?" The woman cried so sadly that I got goose bumps on my back.
Li Daming was really good at it. He cleared his throat and said slowly, "You must have dialed the wrong number."
"Why are you ignoring me? Are you ignoring me because I'm disfigured? You're not that kind of man. You said you'd love me no matter what. Woohoo, can you come and see me? I'm scared. I'm scared in the hospital..." Before she could finish, Chen Meiyu snatched the phone and threw it against the wall. Her voice was cut off. The phone fell to the ground and shattered.
Neither Li Daming nor I spoke.
Chen Meiyu squatted on the ground and cried. She sobbed softly at first, and then cried loudly. Her voice was so sad that it made people feel uncomfortable.
Li Daming walked over and patted her on the shoulder.
Chen Meiyu raised her tearful eyes: "My father would never betray my mother. He can't have another woman. This Lin Xiaohui must be lying!"
I said, "Let's not worry about whether it's a lie or not. Don't you think this is weird?"
Chen Meiyu cried so hard that she didn't even look at me. Li Daming sighed and asked me what was wrong.
"Why is there an underground secret room here?" I said, "Could it be that when they were traveling in the Snow Country, there was a secret door mechanism in that wooden house?"
"Definitely not." Li Daming said: "Reality is reality, and the bardo is the bardo. The secret door mechanism belongs only to this world. You asked a good question, why is there such ? Lin Cong, think about it, this world is not real, it is Chen Jian's purgatory and his difficulty. This secret door must have a deep metaphor, or symbolize his psychological state."
I said nothing, thinking about this problem seriously.
Li Daming said, "I remember a Western psychologist said that the subconscious is like the deep sea. The deeper you dive, the more dangerous the water pressure becomes. I'm afraid we have now entered Uncle Chen's most untold subconscious."
"It seems that this difficulty is related to the relationship between him and Lin Xiaohui," I said.
I remembered the scene when I first helped Wang Yue to overcome difficulties. Wang Yue's difficulties were the people who hurt her and the people she had hurt... The law of nature is clear and retribution is inevitable. No matter who it is, as long as they have committed evil, they will definitely not be able to escape! If they are not punished during their lifetime, they will become difficulties to be punished after death.
Li Daming winked at me, then he strolled to the end of the corridor by himself, and I followed him.
Li Daming thought Chen Meiyu couldn't hear him, so he whispered, "Lin Cong, I think the relationship between Chen Jian and Lin Xiaohui must be very heartbreaking. Chen Meiyu definitely can't accept that her father has such a mistress. Otherwise, you can accompany her upstairs, and I'll go in and take a look alone."
I said, "You protect Chen Meiyu, I'll go in and take a look. I have no form or body, so if things go wrong I can just run away. But if you die here you'll really die."
Li Daming was about to say something else when a girl's voice came from the corridor: "Don't grumble, I'm fine." Chen Meiyu slowly walked over, her face regained its indifference and calmness: "My father is an adult, and even more so a man. I can understand and accept any mistakes he makes. You don't have to worry about me."
Finally, she snorted, "Men! Humph."
I couldn't help but say, "Yes, no man is good."
Chen Meiyu glanced at me coldly and walked deeper into the corridor. Li Daming and I hurried to follow. The corridor became deeper and deeper, and the light around us was dim. No one spoke, and the atmosphere was dull and depressing.
"Look what's on the ground!" I found something wrong.
They both looked at the ground, and saw wet marks at regular intervals, which seemed to be half-dried. Li Daming squatted on the ground, touched them with his hand, and then twisted them with his fingers and put them under his nose to smell them.
"It's sweat."
I said, "Strange, why does sweat appear?"
We lowered our heads and walked along the corridor. We saw a spot of sweat on the ground every meter or so. Even if it was sweat, it couldn't be so regular. I was a little confused.
Li Daming observed these traces, squatting on the ground and moving step by step, carefully examining them. Suddenly, he made a strange move. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed towards the back of the corridor, with his forehead falling on the sweat stains.
He took another step forward, continued in the kneeling position, and his forehead fell on the sweat again.
Chen Meiyu and I both understood where these sweat stains came from. They were caused by someone bumping his head with every step he took.
"It's Uncle Chen." Li Daming stood up and said.
"How do you know it's my dad?" Chen Meiyu said coldly.
Li Daming looked at her and said, "Meiyu, you are being a little too argumentative. This is your father's purgatory. If not him, who else could it be?"
"It could be Lin Xiaohui." The girl said. Even I felt she was making trouble.
Li Daming said: "The most powerful evidence is the stride length. Each step is the normal distance of an adult man. I have carried your father on my back before. His height and weight are similar to mine, not much lighter, so I have the right to speak on this."
"So what if it's him?" Chen Meiyu said.
Li Daming was silent for a moment and said, "He is repenting. If a person can kowtow once every step he takes, there is only one possibility, that he is repenting. Judging from the cause and effect, he must be repenting to Lin Xiaohui. This is also the key to solving the problem. If he doesn't solve this mental obstacle in his subconscious, he won't be able to get out."
Chen Meiyu bit her lower lip and said, "You are so good at analysis, where is my father now?"
Li Daming didn't say anything, but looked into the depths of the corridor, and we all looked over there as well.
Li Daming walked step by step on the sweat stains on the ground, and Chen Meiyu and I followed behind. It wasn't long before we came to the end of the corridor, and a row of alternating metal racks appeared on the wall.
"He went out." said Li Daming.
"You mean, Uncle Chen overcame the difficulties and walked out of this level?" I asked.
Chen Meiyu said: "Impossible, if my father really broke through the barrier, this barrier would not exist, and we would not be here."
Li Daming didn't tell us anything, he was the first to climb up the metal frame. Chen Meiyu sighed softly and followed behind, I was the last.
No one knows what world this upward path will lead us to.
Li Daming's voice came from above: "We've reached the top. There's a lid here, but it can be moved. I'm opening it now."
"Be careful." Chen Meiyu was worried.
Li Daming laughed: "If I fall, you guys will take my place." In the darkness, there was a creaking sound, probably something opening. Li Daming said: "I'll go up first. I'll call you when there's no danger."
A beam of light leaked out from above, and Li Daming's figure flashed, then he went up and disappeared.
