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

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

Just when Lu Xiao was thinking wildly.

Zhang Chu grabbed his collar and shouted in an almost roaring tone:

"Are you Lu Xiao?"

"Then why the hell didn't you tell me earlier?"

Before Lu Xiao could react, Zhang Chu released him again.

Then he paced back and forth in the same place extremely anxiously.

"It's over, it's over!"

"It's all over now!"

Shadow also opened his eyes at this time.

Ever since he met 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, there was loud thunder all around.

The harsh thunder was also mixed with countless chaotic murmurs.

It's like a madman whispering incoherently into someone's ear.

The surrounding fog suddenly became thicker at this time.

Bai So hurriedly pulled Chainsaw Man and ran over.

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

He instantly lost sight of Lu Xiao and the others.

After seeing the shadow again, he frowned and asked:

"What happened?"

Shadow shook his head and did not answer, but his eyes were fixed on Zhang Chu.

At this time, Zhang Chu was like a real madman.

He knelt on the ground and held his head, looking painful.

His lips moved quickly, as if he was silently reciting something.

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

It's as if he didn't speak any known language.

Lu Xiao was a little overwhelmed by this sudden scene.

He retreated to Shadow.

"Did I just say something wrong?"

Shadow said in a low voice:

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

"Let's take a look first and then talk."

So everyone stood there and looked at Zhang Chu.

About five minutes passed.

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

Especially those eyes.

Densely covered with bloodshot threads.

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

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

"Don't worry, what happened?"

"Please tell me clearly, why is it over?"

Zhang Chu roared in a hoarse voice:

"That fellow Daoist told me."

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

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

After hearing Zhang Chu's words, Shadow's brain went blank again.

"The prison was lost?"

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

This time, Shadow didn't answer his words.

Bai Su on the side said in a low tone:

"That is to say, the things locked in here are about to escape."

He just finished speaking.

Suddenly, there was a sound of "Puff, Puff, Puff" in my ears.

The high wall of flesh and blood not far away suddenly collapsed.

It is different from the scene of building collapse.

The collapse of the flesh-and-blood wall is more like a flood bursting its banks.

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

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

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

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

On top of that wave.

Countless deformed creatures poked their heads out.

They looked here with strange eyes.

The huge waves carried them away quickly.

Not only that.

There are countless slender figures in the sky.

Not even the moonlight shining overhead could dispel the chaos surrounding them.

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

He kept mumbling to himself.

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

His temples were beating wildly.

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

"Calm the fuck down!"

"Besides saying this, what else did your Daoist friend say to you?"

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

Zhang Chu shook his head crazily, 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 So walked up and patted Shadow's shoulder.

He took a deep breath and said:

"Forget it, don't force him."

"Judging from his appearance, it must be badly worn."

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

Bai So gave a long sigh and said:

"As Apotheosis ers, we all have a long life."

"Even if you don't become a god, it won't be a big problem if you live for more than a thousand years."

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

"This will make our memories very cluttered."

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

Lu Xiao said somewhat confused:

"Why delete?"

Bai So sighed again and said:

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

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

"To ensure that these key things are not forgotten."

As he said that, his eyes darkened.

"Whether it is pain or despair, we must always think back."

"Otherwise we will forget that memory."

"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 wear and tear of the hard drive."

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

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

Then he pointed to Zhang Chu and continued to ask:

"Then his current condition is that the wear and tear is very serious, right?"

Bai So nodded.

"Yes, that's right."

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

"Then he's already very worn."

"It's so high that some important data is missing."

As he spoke, his eyes trembled and his eye sockets turned slightly red.

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

"Coupled with the unchanging environment, I experience repetitive things every day."

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

"It's the same principle as why we need to keep recalling important memories."

"This also caused his brain to forget some things that seemed irrelevant but were actually very important."

Just when he was explaining to Lu Xiao.

Shadow slowly let go of Zhang Chu.

He let out a long sigh as he looked at the huge waves that were getting farther and farther away.

Then he raised his hand and lightly scratched his wrist with his nails.

Blood instantly overflowed and flowed to his palm.

Soon, the blood gathered into a magic circle.

Then the magic circle formed a human face.

Shadow said to the person's face in a solemn tone:

"Gambler, the prison has been lost!"
