Chapter 172 Don’t Be Replaced
Chapter 172 Don’t Be Replaced
"My grandmother loves me to the core. In the past, whenever she saw my mother being mean to me, she would take a clothes hanger and pretend to hit her. But this time, when she saw me being mean to, she just walked to the table with a blank expression and sat down."
"The atmosphere at the scene was so suffocating that no one spoke. After my grandmother sat down, everyone sat down too. I thought I was in the wrong first, so I didn't refute and just sat down!"
"Then, the most incredible thing happened to me!"
"My aunt took out a bottle of unidentifiable brand of drink from somewhere. It was blood red in color. When it was poured into the cup, it was thick, like concentrated juice, and had a sweet aroma."
"I thought it tasted sweet, so I wanted to try it, but as soon as I put the juice to my lips, I smelled something wrong!"
"Under the sweet smell, there was a faint fishy smell. Looking at the blood-red color, I didn't dare to eat it!"
"Just when I put the cup down, I looked up and saw everyone at the table staring at me. It wasn't until I looked around that they started eating and drinking!"
[Oh my god, this is too weird. If it were me, I would probably just run away! ]
Hu Xiaozhen nodded: "Yes, I was almost sure that although the people at the table looked exactly like my relatives, they were not my relatives at all."
"So I used the same excuse as before, saying that I seemed to have forgotten my phone and had to go downstairs to get it!"
"My dad started scolding me again, saying that he was eating and asked me to get it after dinner. I ignored him and said it was only a few minutes away, so that no thief would smash the car window to steal the phone."
[Damn, your parents knew you went back to get your phone, right? Why does it feel like your dad doesn't know about this? ]
[Doesn't this mean that the people in this room are not your family at all? ]
Hu Xiaozhen's face was filled with horror: "Yes, after I left the house, I almost rolled and crawled downstairs, and then..."
【Then what happened? 】
"Then I was downstairs and saw my parents, carrying the gifts they had taken from me earlier, walking towards me. As they walked, they were wondering which way I was walking and why I was walking faster than them!"
[Oh my god, your parents are really just downstairs? ]
Hu Xiaozhen nodded: "I was shocked at the time, but I was afraid that my parents would be scared after hearing about my experience, so I didn't tell them."
"What's even more confusing is that my parents said that even though they walked slowly, it only took them 5 minutes to walk from the parking lot to the downstairs of my uncle's house, but I had been at my uncle's house for nearly an hour!"
[You must have accidentally entered a parallel universe. The family members there are also your family members, but their personalities and habits are different. In addition, the speed of time is different. Therefore, you stayed there for 1 hour, but only 5 minutes passed in the real world! ]
Hu Xiaozhen pressed her forehead and said, "I don't know what happened. Then when I went upstairs with my parents, it was my aunt who opened the door for us. When she saw me, she asked me all kinds of questions like a peacock."
"I swear to God, how much I hated my aunt before, but at that moment I liked her so much. It made me feel relieved."
"My grandmother was also sitting on the sofa, and she cheerfully beckoned me over."
"When I walked over, I took a special look at my cousin's phone and saw a normal game screen, not a white screen."
"Afterwards, when we were having dinner, the drinks my aunt brought out were normal coconut juice and orange juice, not that weird blood-red stuff."
"After that incident, I never encountered the same thing again, so I kept it in my heart and planned to keep it a secret for the rest of my life. But just a week ago, on my way home, I saw someone who looked exactly like me!"
"She stared at me, also expressionless. Just as I was stunned, she opened her mouth strangely and mouthed to me, 'I finally found you'. I was so scared that I ran away."
[Oh my god, what on earth are they? ]
At this moment, a loud noise suddenly came from Hu Xiaozhen's camera, and Hu Xiaozhen almost subconsciously hugged her head.
"Here she goes again, here she goes again!"
[Who is you in that parallel world? ]
Hu Xiaozhen nodded tremblingly: "It's her. Since I met her that day, she has been pestering me. She even pretended to meet my mother on my behalf and then went home with her."
"I feel like she's trying to slowly replace me!"
[Uh... Although Ms. Hu's experience is a bit scary, I think it would be nice if someone could take over my shitty life! ]
[That’s right, as for that stupid manager in my company, I guarantee that the person who replaces me will regret it within two days!]
Seeing the comments joking, Ji Chu still spoke up: "Everyone is unique. If you hope that someone else will replace you because of the misfortunes in life, you are actually escaping."
"So many misfortunes in previous live broadcasts all started with escape."
"Also, can you guarantee that you will have an easy life after being replaced?"
"You may feel relieved at first, but when you see the person you love treating another person as you, and the real you is excluded, the boundless loneliness cannot be resisted by talking too hard."
Hu Xiaozhen said anxiously: "Host, I don't want to be replaced. I have parents and a grandmother who love me, and my only aunt who is a bit rude. She also gives me big red envelopes every year. I have setbacks in my life, but I can overcome them!"
"If I had to watch myself being replaced by someone with unknown intentions, I would definitely collapse!"
"What if she does something bad to my family in my face? My compromise is just handing her a knife!"
"Anchor, please help me!"
Ji Chu: "Don't worry, I will help you, but first I have to tell you what they are!"
"In addition to the human world and the underworld, this world also has a soul chamber. This is a replica of the real world!"
"Many dead souls have committed evil deeds in their lifetime, and they are afraid of being caught by the ghosts and taken to the underworld to be punished after death, so they flee to this place!"
"But there is no time in the soul chamber, or in other words, there is no fluctuation. It is like a pool of stagnant water. After a long time, some wandering souls get tired of it and want to escape from it!"
"But the narrow passage from the human world to the soul is a one-way line. You can only go in, not out!"
"Of course, there is a way to get out. As long as we can pull a living person in and replace him, we can successfully escape. But the price is that the person will be trapped in the narrow room forever!"
[Look, those people who just said they wanted to be replaced, do they really think there is a free lunch in this world? Behind everything that seems beautiful, there must be a conspiracy that you don't know about. Otherwise, why would others want you, your status as a beast of burden? So don't be so foolish and expect someone to replace you, because the price has already been marked in the dark! ]
