Chapter 847 Door: Willow

The door was completely opened, and violent hot wind blew out from inside, bringing with it surging and violent curse power. The moment these curse powers entered Merlin’s House, they were isolated by a mysterious force and pressed back into the door.

Xia Shou took a deep breath and stepped into the world on the other side of the door.

He stepped on a charcoal-black rock mountain. Below him, a winding golden river was surging, just like the Yellow River that Xia Shou had seen on TV.

However, this river exudes surging heat and is made up of a mixture of molten gold and water. They collide, meander, and roll, and the water surface reflecting the dazzling light is like broken sunlight stacked together, rippling and undulating among the charred rocks.

The dead line under his feet pointed to the river, but Xia Shou saw at a glance a safe direction that was not pointed out by the red line. It was a cut-off river.

An invisible force separated the surging golden water like a transparent sluice, and the cracked black riverbed was exposed to the view. Like Moses parting the Red Sea, a road was forcibly separated in the middle of the main channel of the river.

At the end of the riverbed corridor is an isolated island standing in the middle of the river, with a door standing alone there.

That is the door within the door, the seal within the seal.

Xia Shou walked straight towards the door. The moment his feet stepped on the riverbed, the powerful heat melted the rubber on the soles of his shoes.

Xia Shou felt his feet go soft and had a bad feeling. He immediately quickened his pace and ran towards the island. However, within just a few steps, the soles of his shoes were burned through by the high temperature and the smell of burnt protein immediately spread.

“Crap!”

Xia Shou jumped onto the isolated island while yelling. The large amount of adrenaline suppressed the severe pain of his feet being roasted. He took a breath of hot air and felt that his respiratory tract was almost burned.

Xia Shou glanced at his feet, then looked up at the unique door in front of him. A piece of explanatory text automatically appeared in front of him:
【Door: Willow】

[Introduction: A king’s pet dog was originally just an ordinary dog, but was stuck to a period of time by a certain creature. When its owner separated it from time, it became an animal existing in individual time.]

A pet kept by the king?

This door is already covered with cracks, and each crack is filled with solidified gold liquid. Looking closely, the metal in some of the cracks has melted into liquid again, unable to completely fill those dark gaps.

[The door is becoming fragile.]

The text reminds again.

“Alice, open the door.” Xia Shou said.

He knew that this door was very fragile, and that the thing behind this door could most likely kill him. He came in this time to directly witness the anomaly sealed behind the door and to learn as much information as possible.

The door was opened and a dog jumped out!
That’s right, it’s a dog. At first glance, it looks a bit like an African hyena. Judging from its appearance alone, it doesn’t look like any dangerous abnormality at all. It’s just an ordinary wild animal.

But when Xia Shou saw it, its body shape was constantly changing. When it leaped up, its hind half turned into that of a young hyena, and the hair on its head became gray and dull, as if it had grown old.

As it landed, the dog’s body age characteristics continued to change, and every part of its body showed the image of the animal at different ages, just like an AI-generated animation.

Xia Shou concentrated his attention and looked at the other person, but the other person suddenly disappeared!
The next second, Xia Shou suddenly yelled like crazy, screaming in fear: “That’s it!”

“Alice, he was the one who bit off my hand!”

“Lord Xia Shou, what are you talking about? What’s wrong with your hand?” Alice said in surprise, and a transparent ghost hand lifted up the empty sleeve of Xia Shou’s right arm.

“Where did it go?” Xia Shou turned around and looked around. He didn’t think there was anything strange about his broken arm, as if his arm was supposed to be broken. “Master Xia Shou, please allow me to see the wound on your hand.” Alice asked.

“What’s so good about it! It’s not like you haven’t seen it before! Where’s that dog? Where’s that dog! I’m going to kill him!” Xia Shou roared with gritted teeth, his emotions completely out of control, as if he had become a different person.

The next second, Xia Shou suddenly fell to the ground, one of his legs disappeared, leaving only the empty trouser leg.

Xia Shou, who was furious just a second ago, suddenly seemed to be greatly frightened. He hugged his head with his only remaining left arm, snot and tears streaming down his face. He said in a trembling voice, “Don’t… don’t bite me! Don’t bite me!”

Alice tore off the clothes and half of Xia Shou’s pants on his arm, revealing his disabled limb, which had been healed for who knows how many years.

The next second, Xia Shou had returned to the living room of Merlin’s House, outside the sealed door of the Molten Gold River.

“Interesting.” Xia Shou frowned.

“Lord Xia Shou, is it over?” Alice asked.

“Well, it’s over.” Xia Shou looked at his hands, raised his head, and recalled his mental state just now.

Just now, his memory was completely tampered with, tampered with from beginning to end, and he completely forgot the real memory in his mind now, and completely replaced it with another false memory that never existed at all.

No, it is not necessarily false, it may be true for the individual.

Now that he had the real memory to compare with, he could begin to analyze this strange dog.

His first memory of losing his arm was when he was seven years old and was leaving school. He suddenly encountered an African hyena. He had just walked out of the school gate and met it on his way home, and then he was caught and bitten by it.

His right upper arm was shattered as a result of the attack. The dog’s bite force was far beyond the normal level of its kind, and it almost tore his arm off in a very short time.

If a sanitation worker on the roadside had not seen him, came up with a shovel and killed the dog with a few shovels, he might have been bitten to death.

Later, his arm must have been amputated, and his life was greatly affected. His character became cowardly, and after being ridiculed and bullied, he became extremely irritable. Finally, he traveled to this world and experienced a life completely different from his current memory.

This was the first memory that was replaced after he was attacked by the strange dog, and the second memory was five years after he was attacked by the dog, when he was thirteen years old.

He was drinking on the roadside with some friends…yes, he became a minor who could drink…he was drunk and went to the bushes to vomit when the dog suddenly jumped out and bit his leg.

Because he was drunk, he was unable to fight back effectively, and his friends also failed to rescue him immediately. His foot had to be amputated due to an unknown infection, and he became a disabled person confined to a wheelchair.

Because of these two attacks by two mysterious and similar hyenas, the teenager suffered extremely severe mental trauma and extreme depression, which eventually led to his second state.

The most noteworthy thing about these changes is that the memory of each life is very complete and exists independently.

When the second life experience appears, Xia Shou’s healthy life memory will completely disappear, and his spirit and body will become another disabled person with a broken arm.

If we use memory to identify a person, then we can say that the person being attacked is actually dead at the moment of being attacked by the dog.

This may seem like an attack on the spirit, but in fact it is a complete erasure of the person’s entire life memory!

It is a complete destruction of memory!
