Chapter 1123 The Final Test

Tang Lan walked into the yard and looked at the flowers and plants planted in the yard. His first feeling was that the owner of this yard must be a romantic guy.

"You're here! I've been waiting for you here for a long time!"

At this moment, a middle-aged man suddenly walked out from the flower garden not far away.

The man had an apron tied around his waist and looked to be around 40 years old. He had an elegant smile and gave people an extremely comfortable scholarly air.

"We don't seem to know each other!"

Tang Lan frowned, then spoke.

The middle-aged man walked past Tang Lan, picked up the kettle and began to water the flower bed in front of him patiently.

This feeling was like Tang Lan and the other person were not in the same space at all, which was very strange.

After a long time, the middle-aged man smiled and said, "Don't doubt it, we are indeed in the same space."

"It's just that our forms of existence are different. You have a body, but we don't."

When the man said this, his eyes turned toward the children jumping and playing not far away, and the figures working hard in the fields.

When Tang Lan heard this, he seemed to understand but not quite, and a thoughtful look appeared on his face.

After a long while, he finally asked tentatively: "Are you saying that everything here is not real?"

The middle-aged man shook his head slightly.

While watering the flowers, he replied: "No, in a sense, we do exist!"

"This is the Death Realm that evolved from the rules of life and death. It is the final resting place of the dead and the abode of the deceased!"

"The only difference here is you, not us."

The middle-aged man gave Tang Lan a faint smile.

But these words set off a huge wave in Tang Lan's heart.

At this moment, Tang Lan seemed to understand something, so he looked towards this small world.

He said, "So that's how it is. This is actually a small world of the dead created by you."

"Well, you are right!"

"I know you are a candidate for this death test. The guy outside has informed me."

"But even though we are all incarnations of the God of Death, our personalities are different."

"You want to take away the three powers of the God of Death from me, but it's not that easy to do."

The middle-aged man seemed to remember something and continued.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, my name is Haochen!"

"This is the name I gave myself. What do you think? The little guys said this name is very good. It roughly means the bright moon and stars in the sky."

Tang Lan stood there, feeling a little helpless.

It turns out that this guy only looks gentle and has a great temperament on the outside, but in fact he is a nagging uncle who talks non-stop whenever he sees someone.

"Senior Haochen, I'm here to look for the three groups of original power left by the God of Death. I don't know..."

However, before Tang Lan could finish her words, Haochen interrupted her.

"Isn't it the three balls of original power? I know this."

"The old man sent you here, and I think he told you something about this place."

"As long as you can make all the children here happy and make them all accept you, I can give you the first one."

"As for the crops in the farmland, as long as you can make them grow luxuriantly, I will give you the second source of power."

"If you can gain the approval of everyone in this village, I will give you the third source of power."

Haochen smiled faintly and made three requests to Tang Lan.

"Is it really that simple?"

Tang Lan blinked, a look of confusion on his face.

This seemed different from what he had imagined, but listening to these requests, it seemed to be no different from helping people find cats and chickens in ordinary villages.

"Haha, won't you know when you go there?"

After Haochen finished speaking, he turned and walked towards his house without paying any more attention to Tang Lan.

Tang Lan turned his head and looked at the children playing not far behind.

"What are you guys playing? Can you count me in?"

Tang Lan tried his best to act like a sunny older brother, walked up to them and said with a smile.

"We are playing stone throwing. Come and try it, big brother. It's very simple."

Seeing this, one of the little boys hurried forward and taught Tang Lan how to play stone throwing with a smile.

This game is very simple. Basically, Tang Lan stands outside the line and throws stones forward.

Each square carved on the ground has a corresponding penalty, and only the small square in the middle is considered a successful challenge and will not be punished.

This kind of gameplay can be extended to many kinds of small games, which is very interesting.

Tang Lan picked up a walnut-sized stone on the ground and casually threw it towards the center in front of him.

But this throw was like throwing the stone into a lake of time. The stone actually penetrated the space in front of it and then turned into ripples and disappeared.

There was no trace of anything on the ground, and the stone did not fall into the pit.

At this moment, the children were still smiling, as if they didn't notice this special scene at all.

Tang Lan's expression also changed, and he began to look around with a serious face.

At this moment, no one else seemed to notice Tang Lan's expression, or even Tang Lan's existence.

It was as if what happened just now was just an illusion Tang Lan saw, and not something that really happened.

"How can this be!"

When Tang Lan saw this scene at this moment, he was suddenly shocked.

Tang Lan, who was extremely vigilant, noticed something was wrong at the first moment, so he frowned and began to examine the current situation carefully.

At the same time, Haochen's voice also sounded in Tang Lan's mind.

"This world contains the rules of fate and cause and effect, as well as the rules of time and life and death!"

"If your thoughts are still like those of ordinary people, then you will never be able to break through and resonate with this world, let alone put the stone in your hand into the wireframe in front of you."

"Look, the stone you threw before is still there!"

Haochen's voice echoed in Tang Lan's ears.

At the same time, it also woke up Tang Lan. It turned out that at this moment, he had not completely integrated with the world in front of him.

What he just saw was most likely Haochen using his own power to integrate him into this world in a short period of time.

He wanted him to see some of the scenes that Haochen wanted him to see.

Tang Lan ignored Hao Chen and sat cross-legged on the ground. She closed her eyes slightly and began to carefully comprehend the rules of this world and the rhythm of power.

Time seemed to stand still at this moment, of course only Tang Lan herself was still.

The children in front of him completely ignored Tang Lan and continued playing their games.

On the other side,

Haochen was sitting in his thatched hut when ripples suddenly appeared in the space in front of him.

The old man Gu Xuan, who was in charge of the Death Assessment Hall, walked out.

Gu Xuan looked at Hao Chen with a complicated expression, and then said, "You are in such a good mood, you are still reading a book here!"
