"Hehe, sir, what can I do for you?" The smile on the courier's face reminded Li Huowang of his own boss.

"Go to sleep, don't come near my room if there's nothing to do."

"Then I'll take my leave. If you need anything, just call for Lao Wu, and I'll be there."

The door creaked shut as Li Huowang secured it and took out some stale bread from his bag, which had been soaked by the rain.

Without any steamed buns, he didn't dare to eat anything outside. He couldn't be too careful, even inside the inn in Liangguo.

As he ate, Li Huowang suddenly stopped and looked at his scabbing hand. There seemed to be something moving there.

By the candlelight, Li Huowang carefully examined his hand and found a very thin black tentacle that resembled an earthworm wriggling in his blood vessels.

Li Sui's tentacles had already reached his hand through his blood vessels, which had never happened before.

"What did I say? Look, the omen has appeared. This is just the beginning. The Black Tai Sui will gradually occupy all the meridians in your body! By then, you will be doomed. Even the Great Luo Immortal won't be able to save you!"

"Do as I say and throw it away quickly!"

Li Huowang chewed on the soggy bread in his mouth and stared coldly at Red, who said these words.

"Dad?" Li Sui's voice sounded again, with a hint of grievance and hesitation.

Li Huowang's gaze returned to him, and he put the remaining bread back in his bag, blew out the candle, and lay down on the bed without even bothering to wash up.

He was already very tired, and he fell asleep almost as soon as his head touched the pillow.

Listening to the sound of rain outside the window, Li Huowang slept well for once.

In a daze, Li Huowang was suddenly awakened by a strong nausea.

"What's going on?" Li Huowang walked to his bag and took out a gourd to drink water.

But just as he opened his mouth, instead of water, several tentacles emerged from his throat.

"What are you doing? Go back!" Li Huowang shouted frantically in his mind.

"Dad, you... won't die!"

As Li Huowang bent over and vomited, Li Sui, who was formed by wriggling tentacles of various sizes, covered in mucus, was directly vomited out and quickly crawled under the bed.

After taking a difficult sip of bloody saliva, Li Huowang glared at Red, "Can you die if you don't speak?"

As he turned and walked towards the bed, Li Huowang suddenly clutched his head in pain. Everything around him began to change rapidly.When he came to his senses again, he found himself lying on the cold concrete floor where he had been standing just moments ago.

Li Huowang looked around in shock, realizing that he was still under the bridge, but the place looked much dirtier than before.

"Back again..." Li Huowang sighed helplessly and turned over, lying flat on the ground, staring at the spider webs under the arch bridge.

The only consolation was that his mother and Yang Na were no longer here, and he didn't have to worry about distinguishing between reality and illusion. He just had to wait quietly for time to pass.

"Li Sui is getting better at reading, he can understand what Red is saying now, but I have to teach him that not everything people say is true." Li Huowang, dressed in rags and covered in dirt, lay in the bridge tunnel and spoke to himself.

"Tap, tap, tap" footsteps sounded from the entrance of the bridge tunnel. He remembered that it was the sound of Huanhuan.

Li Huowang turned his head and saw the cute little girl with the red backpack holding steamed buns in her hands, standing there anxiously. She looked a bit taller than before, and her clothes had changed, but the cherry hairpin on her head remained the same.

"Huanhuan, you don't have to bring me food, I won't starve to death. It would be better if I did." Li Huowang's words made Huanhuan's eyes widen. "Uncle, you can recognize me! You haven't recognized me for a long time."

He smiled silently and stood up, walking towards the little girl. This time, Huanhuan didn't run away, but looked up at Li Huowang with anxiety.

Li Huowang took the five steamed buns from her bag and put them in his mouth. "I'm sorry about what happened in kindergarten. You know I have a mental illness and sometimes I can't distinguish things clearly."

Seeing Li Huowang eating, Huanhuan smiled sweetly and shook her head. Her twin ponytails swayed from side to side. "It's okay, I know you don't mean to hurt me."

Li Huowang raised his hand to pat her little head, but seeing his dirty palm, he thought better of it.

"Thank you for the steamed buns. Don't bring me food again in the future. I might hurt you when I go crazy." Li Huowang paused for a moment, wondering why he was saying this. It was just an illusion.

"Okay! I got it! Goodbye, Uncle. I'm going home!" Huanhuan gave Li Huowang a big hug and left.

Li Huowang walked to the edge of the bridge tunnel and stood in the shadow, watching the petite figure running in the sunlight. A warm feeling rose in his eyes.

The kindness that he was so wary of on the other side was everywhere in this illusion. If he had to choose, he really wanted to treat this side as real.Just as he was about to turn around and return to the bridge hole, a fat man smoking and wearing a large gold chain around his neck at the corner in the distance immediately made his expression freeze.

The lecherous look he occasionally cast in this direction quickly turned the warmth in Li Huowang's eyes into coldness.

"What does he want to do to Huanhuan?" Li Huowang immediately thought of a movie called "Suyuan". This made him tremble with embarrassment.

Even if it was just in his own hallucination, he would never let such disgusting things happen.

Looking around, he picked up a handy cobblestone from the nearby river and reached for the fat man.

Just as the fat man turned around and saw Li Huowang, the stone in Li Huowang's hand had already hit his head.

When the fat man, whose head was bleeding, was awakened by the intense pain, he had already been dragged by Li Huowang to the depths of the dark bridge hole.

When he lowered his head and saw a piece of broken glass piercing through his left palm, he screamed in agony.

Li Huowang punched him in the chest, immediately silencing the fat man's screams, and he couldn't catch his breath for a while. "What are you screaming for? I haven't even started yet!"

When the fat man regained his composure, Li Huowang stared at him coldly. "Tell me, why were you staring at that little girl?"

The fat man heard this and tears almost fell from his eyes. His expression was extremely aggrieved. "I wasn't staring at that little girl! I was clearly staring at you!"
