Chapter 52: Hongqiao

The dusty old door was pushed open.

A bitter wind blew into the temple, instantly clearing the heat of burning flames.

Behind that door is a different world.

The other end of this door is built on the mountains, surrounded by the harsh cold wind. One step in front of you is a deep abyss. The light from nowhere above your head reflects the white snow in the sky. Looking up, it is the towering top of the mountain covered with snow.

This is another world, at least in heaven, it is impossible to have such a clear and stern scenery.

On one side of this door is a snow-covered path, which is close to the cliff on one side and a cliff on the other side... And at the end of this path, there is a sudden turn.

A huge bridge that makes people tremble when they take a look at it.

This bridge seems not to be built for humans at all. The huge steps are more than one meter away. The beams and pillars are as tall as spires. The whole is made of huge rocks. At first glance, the bridge deck looks like a plain made of rocks. What's even more shocking is that the bridge has no support.

It stubbornly rushed straight into the sky along a straight line, like a giant sword that splits the clouds, and the end fell between the mountains, and no one knew where it led to it.

Hongqiao, this is a bridge that can transcend the world and the last hope that transcends the world.

But... these are the thoughts that people think at the first moment of seeing it, and in the next second, this hope will be slapped and crushed by a ridiculous force, and abandoned like garbage.

Because, the bridge has been broken.

In the middle of the straight bridge that would never bend, there was a huge fault like a chasm of heaven and earth. This fault was not just a cliff, but a canyon that was simply a chasm.

Old Joey opened his mouth slightly, and he looked into the sky. The huge bridge deck also became slender and long at a very long distance, but he knew that he could not jump through the gap.

The crack was too big and too wide.

Old Joey was stunned. He suddenly felt that all this was ridiculous. He had used so much strength to kill so many people. Although they really deserved to die,... in the end, it turned out to be such an end.

Old Joey was stunned. He didn't know how long he had stood, but finally, he came back to his senses and walked back into the house.

However, the moment he turned around, he saw a statue.

It was the huge statue with wings. Because he walked in from the other side of the temple, Old Joey could only see the back of the statue and the huge wings. At this moment, he finally saw the front of the statue.

It was a pig-headed man, just like the statue in Hope Village. He held a butcher knife and pointed at the sky. The only difference was that there were wings behind the statue.

Old Joey was wondering why this statue appeared here, but he didn't want to pay attention.

So he walked around and came to that person again.

"What's wrong with Hongqiao?" he asked.

"It's broken." The man on the seat said lightly.

Old Joey's heart was suddenly pinched by something: "How did it break?"

"A long time ago, there was a pig-headed man who broke it with one knife..."

Old Joey thought for a while: "Is a man named Owenke?"

The skinny man nodded: "Yes, that's a sinner, a lunatic, a hero... He changed heaven. Do you want to hear his story?"

Old Joey shook his head: "I've heard it."

"Hahaha———" Suddenly, the man laughed, his laughter was hoarse, but very powerful, as if he was laughing, not his thin body at all: "What you listened to was told by those stupid people, right? Haha, don't be stupid, what they told was a completely wrong story, and the real story was not like that."

Old Joey listened to the hoarse laughter and said nothing.

The man continued:

"You heard those pig-headed people say that Owenke is a hero. He slaughtered the angels and walked across the rainbow bridge, right... Haha, yes, but, this is just part of the story. He did kill the angels... But, do you know what angels looked like a long time ago?"

Old Joey seemed to remember something. Although he didn't want to care about this story, his memory began to move.

"Let me tell you... At that time, the angels of heaven did not grow up like this. They had no wings at all. Their characteristics... were that everyone had pig's heads!"

"That's right, in that forgotten time, the pighead was the master of this heaven, and that poor Oyinke was just a simple reckless man. He always thought that his butcher knife was punishing the demon. In the end, he found that he was a demon because he also had a pig face."

"After that, Owenke went crazy, he fell into a painful cycle, and when he finally broke the cycle and left heaven, he cut off the only way out of heaven with one sword. No one in Mei knew why."

"Before leaving, Oinke seemed to have naively thought that the world would develop in a good direction. Haha, of course, good and bad are relative. If the human-faced pigs get better, then the pig-headed people will naturally not be very happy. Therefore, after that, the status between the angels and the people has undergone a major reversal. The pig-headed people began to become the bottom of the worship, and we became the masters... This is like an ant colony, the angels are worker ants, and the people sitting at the table are responsible for eating. As for the people outside the temple, they are food. There is only this way of survival in heaven. No matter how many slaughtered, it will not change."

"Oh, by the way, are you still thinking about what method to use to cross the Hongqiao? Haha, of course there are methods, as long as you can fly... But unfortunately, no one in heaven can fly."

As he said that, the skinny man reached into the robe he draped over his body, and then took out a pair of small wings.

"I can install a pair of wings for you, just cut the skin behind you and sew them on it. Don't look at the wings so small, as long as you keep eating, eating, eating, and eating, it will grow one day... You also see the people you slaughtered before, in fact, they were like you, all the heroes who came here after all the hardships to escape from the rainbow bridge, but they all chose the same path in the end."
