Chapter 273 Wear and Tear

Seeing Zhang Chu's surprised look, Lu Xiao was a little worried.

He was worried that Zhang Chu's jaw might be dislocated.

Just as Lu Xiao was thinking wildly.

Zhang Chu grabbed his collar and shouted in a nearly roaring tone:

"Are you Lu Xiao?"

"Why didn't you say it earlier?"

Before Lu Xiao could react, Zhang Chu let him go again.

Then he paced back and forth in the same place in great anxiety.

"It's over!"

"It's all over now!"

Shadow also opened his eyes at this time.

Since he saw Zhang Chu, although he was a little crazy, he had never shown such an anxious look.

"It's all over now!"

At the same time, thunder roared around.

The harsh thunder was mixed with countless messy whispers.

It was like a madman lying in someone's ear and whispering indistinctly.

The surrounding fog suddenly became thicker at this time.

Bai Suo hurriedly pulled the chainsaw man over.

Just now, the visibility around was no more than half a meter.

He instantly lost sight of Lu Xiao and the others.

When he saw Shadow again, he frowned and asked:

"What happened?"

Shadow shook his head and didn't answer, but his eyes were fixed on Zhang Chu.

Zhang Chu at this moment was like a real madman.

He knelt on the ground holding his head, his expression painful.

His lips moved quickly, as if he was mumbling something.

But no matter how hard everyone concentrated, they couldn't hear anything.

It was as if he was not speaking any known language.

Lu Xiao was a little overwhelmed by this sudden scene.

He retreated to Shadow's side.

"Did I say something wrong just now?"

Shadow said in a low voice:

"It should be your name that triggered his memory switch."

"Let's see first."

So everyone stood there and looked at Zhang Chu.

About five minutes later.

Zhang Chu raised his head, his expression looked extremely hideous.

Especially his eyes.

Dense bloodshot veins filled them.

"It's over! It's all over! Everyone is finished!"

Everyone looked at each other, and finally Shadow took the initiative to talk:

"Don't worry, what happened?"

"Tell me clearly, why is it over?"

Zhang Chu roared in a hoarse voice:

"That fellow Taoist told me."

"If one day, someone named Lu Xiao comes to you."

"That means... the prison has been breached!"

After hearing Zhang Chu's words, Shadow's mind became blank again.

"The prison has been breached?"

"What does this mean?" Lu Xiao asked in confusion.

This time, Shadow did not answer him.

Bai Suo said in a low voice:

"That means, the things locked up in here are going to run out."

As soon as he finished speaking.

A burst of 'puff puff' sounds suddenly came from his ears.

The flesh and blood wall not far away suddenly collapsed.

Different from the scene of building collapse.

The collapse of the flesh and blood wall is more like a flood bursting through a dam.

The hundred-meter-high flesh and blood wall turned into a pool of pus at this moment.

At the same time, the gray-white mist surrounding them began to dissipate.

At this time, a strange scene appeared in everyone's eyes.

The pus transformed from the high wall of flesh and blood poured into the ocean and set off a huge wave.

On the top of the wave.

Countless deformed creatures poked their heads out.

They looked at this side with a strange look.

The huge wave swept them away quickly.

Not only that.

There were countless slender figures in the air.

Even the moonlight shining from above could not dispel the chaos surrounding them.

At this time, Zhang Chu was still kneeling on the ground with his hands on his head.

He kept muttering to himself.

"It's over! It's all over!"

His temples were throbbing wildly.

Shadow took a deep breath, then he stepped forward quickly, grabbed Zhang Chu by the collar and roared:

"Calm down!"

"What else did your fellow Taoist say to you besides this?"

"Why is the prison going to fall when Lu Xiao comes?"

Zhang Chu shook his head frantically, with a line of blood hanging from the corner of his eye.

"I don't know! I don't know!"

"I don't remember!"

At this time, Bai Suo stepped forward and patted Shadow on the shoulder.

He took a deep breath and said:

"Forget it, don't force him."

"Looking at his appearance, it should be worn out very badly."

Hearing this, Lu Xiao hurriedly asked: "What is wear and tear?"

Bai Suozi sighed deeply and said:

"As gods, we all have long lifespans."

"Even if we don't become gods, it's not a big problem to live for more than a thousand years."

"In this long process, we will experience many, many things."

"This will make our memories very messy."

"Therefore, the brain will subconsciously delete irrelevant memories."

Lu Xiao was a little confused:

"Why delete?"

Bai Suozi sighed again and said:

"If the memory is too messy, we will go crazy."

"Generally speaking, we will often think about things that are very important to us."

"To ensure that we don't forget these key things."

As he said, his eyes darkened.

"Whether it is pain or despair, we must recall it often."

"Otherwise we will forget that memory."

"And the concept of wear and tear is to compare the human brain to a hard drive."

"When there is too much data stored in this hard drive, some infrequently used data will be lost due to the wear and tear of the hard drive."

"Only those data that are frequently called will not be easily lost."

After listening to Bai Suosu's answer, Lu Xiao nodded with some understanding.

He then pointed at Zhang Chu and continued to ask:

"So his current situation is that the wear and tear is very serious, right?"

Bai Suosu nodded.

"Yes, that's right."

"If his brain is compared to a hard drive."

"Then his wear and tear is already very high."

"So high that some important data is missing."

As he said this, his eyes trembled and his eyes were slightly red.

"Because he is experiencing pain and despair all the time."

"Plus the unchanging environment, and the repetitive things he experiences every day."

"Then his brain will determine that what he is experiencing is an important memory."

"This is the same principle as we need to constantly recall important memories."

"This also causes his brain to forget some seemingly irrelevant but actually very important things."

Just as he was explaining to Lu Xiao.

The shadow slowly let go of Zhang Chu.

He looked at the huge waves that were gradually moving away and sighed deeply.

Then he raised his hand and gently scratched his wrist with his fingernails.

The blood instantly overflowed and flowed into his palm.

Soon, the blood gathered into a magic circle.

Then the magic circle formed a human face.

The shadow said to the human face in a solemn tone:

"Gambler, the prison has been lost!"
