Secular world: My destiny has no taboos

Chapter 6 006: Two Worlds Exchange Group
"If you have loved each other for long enough, it will be more painful to be apart. I miss your cheeks and your hair, but I am not afraid~~~"

A male voice with a deep and melodious tune came from the mobile phone. Accompanied by a strong vibration, Lin Beixuan, who was leaning against the door, slowly opened his eyes.

"Am I back?"

The sunlight shines through the cracks in the window and hits my face, warm and gentle. I hear the bustling shouts of the breakfast vendors outside and the sounds of pedestrians walking and running. I smell a fresh scent unique to this world in my nose.

He stood up from the ground by holding on to the door. His limbs were weak and his whole body was trembling with pain. Lin Beixuan sat on the stool behind the counter. It took him a long time to recover.

Looking at the familiar scenes around him and the phone in his hand with some paint worn off, he felt as if he were in another world.

"It turns out that when the white candle in the shrine burns out, it doesn't mean that I will die, but that I will return to the real world."

Lin Beixuan roughly estimated the time he had stayed in the secular world. It was actually not too long. It might only be a few hours in total, but he counted the time when he was still alive.

He remembered that after his death in the secular world, every time he woke up there was a shrine nearby with white candles burning in the shrine. When he died and resurrected, a large part of the candle would disappear out of thin air. The white candle that could originally burn for a long time would burn out very quickly.

If lighting a white candle means the beginning of life in the secular world, if the candle goes out, he will return to the world.

"hiss……"

Lin Beixuan suddenly frowned.

But, are things really that simple?

Rubbing his arms which were still a little stiff and sore, Lin Beixuan fell into deep thought.

"The secular world!"

All the mysteries started with these two words. Last night, he encountered a sudden fog and heard a strange ringing sound. Then he entered the secular world and suffered from the sleeping sickness that many people are talking about now.

Is it really an infection or was I chosen by fate?
Oh, right, the jade token.

Lin Beixuan thought of the things his parents left him and reached for his chest, but found nothing.

He usually wore the jade pendant around his neck, but it was not there at this moment.

Then, Lin Beixuan tried to call in his mind, and sure enough, a panel composed of bright and phantom shadows appeared in his mind.

On the panel, his character information appeared. His name was still Lin Beixuan, but the fate column, which indicated that misfortunes never come singly, became dim and seemed no longer usable.

"The panel can still be used normally in the real world, and can even be used for fortune-telling and drawing lots, but everything related to the earthly body is gone."

Lin Beixuan didn't care too much about it. He didn't have anything on his earthly body. At most he had a hatchet that was fairly handy. If he brought the lame man over, he would have a headache.

After all, the secular world is too unfamiliar to us. That world is very different from the present world. One seems to exist in ancient times, while the other is a modern world full of high technology.

The only similarity is probably that they are both very real.

Lin Beixuan opened his phone and clicked on the post he had viewed yesterday, only to find that the post had been deleted.

So he searched for information about the secular world on major websites again, but surprisingly, the information that he could occasionally search for two days ago was gone today.

However, Lin Beixuan did not give up and finally found a website called "Two Worlds Exchange Group" in a comment section.

When I entered the website through the link, a question immediately popped up from the window.

【Q: Where did you wake up? 】

Lin Beixuan thought about it and filled in his birthplace truthfully.

[Q: Have you ever died?]

"..."

Lin Beixuan's face darkened. Who asked this question? Why was he picking on people's sore spots?

Then he answered several inexplicable questions in succession, and the website interface gradually became weird, changing from the original single color to elements with a very folk style.

At this time, a Q version of a little man appeared on the mobile phone screen. In front of him was a table with an incense burner on it. The little man had a serious face and was holding three incense sticks in his hands, bowing to the incense burner.

It’s obviously a serious little scene, but it somehow makes people feel cute.

【last question. 】

[Q: What is the first thing you see every time you wake up? ]

Although it seemed like a simple question, Lin Beixuan saw an unspeakable solemnity in it, as if as long as he answered this question incorrectly, all his previous questions would be invalid.

Lin Beixuan couldn't help but take this seriously. He carefully recalled what he saw the first time he woke up from his two deaths.

The dark sky, the graves, the eerie white sails, the crows, the dead trees… one thing after another flashed through his mind, but in the end he rejected them all.

"No, none of these."

"Every time I wake up, the first thing I see is... the shrine!"

Lin Beixuan's pupils dilated, and after hesitating for a moment, he entered the word "shrine" into the answer.

As the answer was confirmed, the phone interface suddenly lit up and a new message popped up on the website.

【Welcome to join the two-world exchange group. This website supports group social networking, information trading, item trading and other functions. 】

[Note: Do not reveal your identity and location in the two worlds at will. This site will not be responsible for any danger you encounter.]

After the news spread, Lin Beixuan officially joined this website.

The first step is to upload your personal information. You don’t need to provide your mobile phone number or other information that involves personal privacy. You just need to fill in an ID.

The website's treatment of the ID is also very interesting. It is named "Code Name" and next to it is a Guan Gong's Qinglong sword.

Lin Beixuan thought about it and entered the four words "Fu Sheng Tianzun" after the code name. As for the avatar, he directly used the simple Q version character that came with the website.

After the personal information was uploaded successfully, the website interface changed and several search boxes suddenly appeared. The most eye-catching one was the information plaza belonging to the social category.

Lin Beixuan clicked on it and saw posts similar to those on Tieba. There were many people commenting below, and it was quite lively.

[There is a dungeon in Taiping Town, Qingfeng County, Luozhou Prefecture. Is there anyone who wants to take it? The rewards will be shared equally. Anyone interested, come quickly! ]

The poster's code name is Akina Mountain Corpse Driven Man, and his avatar is a weathered old Taoist priest with an upside-down lotus on his head, grinning at the camera.

[There are traces of secular people passing through Ge'er Mountain in Bozhou District. This is a good opportunity to transport secular items to the real world. Is there any big guy willing to be the escort leader of Wanmao Chamber of Commerce and be responsible for escorting this time? ]

The poster's code name is Guo Jiang Meng Long, and his avatar is a famous character in anime, a middle-aged man wearing sunglasses.

Of course, there are relatively few posts like this one, and most of them are individuals expressing their emotions in the square.

For example, a fairy girl was angry and asked why her partner killed her just because she asked for a little more gift in the secular world. When she was resurrected and went to find that person again, she was killed again. It turned out that men only talk about love with their mouths...

Or someone might post a message complaining that they have entered a vicious circle, and as their number of deaths in the secular world increases, they are aging at an alarming rate...

The content of each post is different, but they all touch upon the same place.

worldly.

On this website, Lin Beixuan discovered that the gap between the secular world and the real world was gradually narrowing, and that weird and absurd world had become a topic of conversation for many people.

Lin Beixuan became more and more excited as he browsed. The content on the information square allowed him to learn a lot about the secular world.

"Tuk tuk tuk..."

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Lin Beixuan looked up and saw someone outside the glass door of the convenience store looking at him through the glass.

Only then did Lin Beixuan notice that it was already 8 o'clock and the convenience store should have opened for business a long time ago.

He then came out from behind the counter and opened the door of the convenience store.

"Sorry, I got up late." Lin Beixuan smiled and invited people in.

The two people who came were a man and a woman. The middle-aged man in the lead walked around the convenience store, while the younger woman stood in front of the door, writing in a notebook in her hand.

"What do you want to buy?"

Hearing this, the middle-aged man walked up to Lin Beixuan, frowned, and asked, "Did you stay in this store last night?"

The middle-aged man spoke in a steady voice, his tone revealing a military demeanor.

Seeing this, Lin Beixuan narrowed his eyes slightly and said calmly: "I was a little tired from work last night, so I fell asleep in the store."

"Oh? Did you see anything strange?"

The man stared into Lin Beixuan's eyes, as if hoping to see some answers from him.

The woman in front of the door also stopped writing and looked over.
