Starry Sky Railway: Opening Performance - Taixu Sword God

"Sorry to keep you waiting, is there another member who wants to see Sleeping Banana Monkey?"

"..."

Recalling what he had seen on the street earlier, Potio spoke first:

"No, it's just me."

"You?" Zhujiao looked at him curiously. "This gentleman looks unfamiliar, but he shouldn't be an ordinary member, right?"

“That’s right, you all say I’m very talented.” Potio put his hands on his hips and became smug.

“I am a member of the Expert level, number 244, March 7th.”

March 7: "?"

"Ah! It's you! I've heard so much about you!" Zhu Jiao clapped excitedly.

“You have the potential to become someone who truly enters the Source. Please come to me.”

"Wait, what are you doing?" March 7th quickly grabbed Potio's clothes, asking worriedly:

"This miraculous appearance is very likely...!"

“I know,” Potio whispered to March 7th.

"Those with poor judgment will take the hit, while those with clear minds will retaliate. I think I've already fallen for it..."

"While I can still stay sober, I'll take on this dangerous task."

"You improvise and keep watch here for me."

Potio went straight up and placed his hand on the television.

March 7th wanted to say something more, but only a few seconds later, Potio's body began to sway precariously.

"No, so fast!"

"Really... are you really that talented?"

After Potio's subconscious fell into a deep sleep, Suzuka smiled and looked at March 7th, "The answer is obvious, Miss."

"This gentleman wishes to go back to the past more than anyone else present."

……

In the depths of a dream.

Potio suddenly opened his eyes and found himself still inside the Sleeping Banana Society's stronghold.

"What banana thing?"

"We meet again, sir." Zhu Jiao, standing beside him, bowed slightly.

“It’s you.” Potio looked at the monkey on the television and said disdainfully:

"When I first heard about the miracle, I thought I would see some kind of church, or at the very least, some white light."

"You guys are really something, showing me this kind of trash..."

Zhu Jiao shook her head slightly.

"Creating a beautiful but false prospect is a clumsy approach and is completely contrary to the spirit that Sleeping Banana Monkey wants to convey to people."

"Also, please don't say that. You're not as clean as you think you are."

"Not only did they bathe in strange places, but they also drank even more filthy banana water... This is something we don't want to see."

"?"

"What the hell do you mean by 'banana'?!"

"Haha, never mind, sir."

Zhu Jiao smiled and looked at Botio.

"Many members have come here, trying to gain something—truth, happiness, peace… that’s all."

"Unfortunately, there are no answers here, only one question."

"—Will this make you even more unhappy?"

"What the hell?" Potio didn't understand what Zhujiao meant at all.

It was supposed to be a miracle, but apart from the monkey head on the TV screen, there was no sleeping banana monkey at all.

"Don't worry, I will explain it to you in detail..."

As Zhujiao led Potio forward, he began to speak:

"For example... if I asked you to give up malt juice, what would be the first thing that comes to mind?"

"Of course, we should have a drink, right?"

"At this very moment, you think the same thing."

More and more bananas came, like protectors, following Potio as he walked.

"Of course! Dude, I just love drinking."

Chapter 1091 I really should have dealt with you sooner

"Yes."

"Self-examination is crucial at all times and in all places."

Zhu Jiao turned around and looked at Potio:

"You might wonder, should I drink single malt, or something new, like an wormwood herbal flavor..."

"No matter what choice you make, it seems there will be regrets."

"So let's imagine a scenario that doesn't exist in reality—"

"If your dependence on that drink never existed in the first place, this problem would not arise, and the thoughts that arise from it would also disappear."

"Will this make you unhappy?"

Upon hearing this, Potio was stunned.

A mysterious force rushed into my mind, disrupting my original thoughts.

"Hiss... what's wrong with him? What's going on?"

"I really don't have any desire to drink it at all."

"..."

Potio gazed at the banana tree before him, his eyes narrowing slightly.

"How dare you rummage through my brain like that? No wonder the synesthetic beacon looks like this."

"You piece of junk shouldn't be able to do this. Where's the bastard behind this?"

"Sir, please don't get agitated." The assistants took a few steps back and smiled kindly.

“I know your purpose in coming to Liumeng Reef is not pure, and we discovered you immediately.”

"But you should be grateful that we've kept you here until now."

"We firmly believe that there are no permanent enemies, as long as you can understand our philosophy."

"What kind of banana philosophy do you have?" Portio roared.

"If humans had no desires, could they still be called human?"

"From the moment they are born, babies instinctively draw nutrition from their mothers' bodies, and when they are hungry after birth, they will want to drink milk!"

"If we follow your logic, without the desire to absorb energy, wouldn't we just die? What's the point then!"

"Yes, that's a very thought-provoking question."

Zhu Jiao smiled slightly.

"However, I will not answer."

"Now, let's turn our attention to more complex issues."

"For example... your hatred, your hatred for the company."

"That's truly an endless rage, isn't it?"

Seeing that the damned monkey was going through his memories again, Potio silently drew his gun:

"Since you know that, think before you speak, don't get yourself into trouble, banana."

"Don't be impatient," Zhu Jiao said, looking ahead.

"The little monkey sleeping on the banana tree doesn't preach any grand principles of forgiveness or letting go; that's really annoying."

"It will certainly support you in taking revenge yourself, just like now—"

Several company employees, dressed in standard armor and carrying weapons, rushed toward them from a distance.

Potio glanced at them and decisively opened fire.

'Bang bang bang—!!'

Amidst a hail of bullets, the company employees collapsed to the ground, unable to get up.

"How does it feel?"

"Nonsense, would you be interested in shooting at fake targets?"

"I understand," Zhu Jiao said with a smile.

"But venting anger always makes people relax, and when people are relaxed, they are more likely to accept some unpleasant remarks."

"Now, as before, imagine a scenario that does not exist in reality."

Zhu Jiao lowered his voice and looked directly into Potio's eyes:

What happens to a person who lives for revenge if they lose that hatred?

Will this make you even more unhappy?
