As they approached Xie Zhen‑Tu, the door’s lock recognized the combination of their biometric signatures and the whispered chant: The metal groaned, and the ancient door swung inward, revealing a dimly lit corridor lined with frozen holographic panels. Each panel flickered with fragments of a story long erased from the world’s memory. Chapter 3 – The Hall of Forgotten Echoes Inside, the station was a labyrinth of cold steel and humming reactors. In the central chamber stood a massive crystal sphere— the Mirror of Hei Si . Its surface rippled like liquid mercury, reflecting not the room but a thousand possible futures.
Booty, having merged with the Codex, chose to remain in the xu li zhi , a guardian of the new reality. Mei Tui, her purpose fulfilled, dissolved into pure light, leaving behind a single jade amulet that pulsed with a gentle warmth.
Booty guided Xiu Ren through the snowstorm, its voice echoing in his headset: Gao Qing was a name Xiu Ren barely remembered—a fellow researcher who had vanished with him during the Hei Si operation. The two had once shared a secret language based on ancient Chinese calligraphy, a language that could be read by the xu li zhi itself. As they approached Xie Zhen‑Tu, the door’s lock
Date: 10 February 2023 Location: The abandoned research station “Xie Zhen‑Tu” In the waning light of a February dusk, the snow‑kissed peaks of the Kunlun Range hid a secret that the world had long forgotten. Deep beneath the granite, a rust‑colored door bore a single, faded inscription: “Xiu Ren – Gao Qing – 2023‑02‑10 – No. 6251” No one knew what lay beyond it—until a lone figure, cloaked in a tattered navy coat, pressed his hand against the cold metal and whispered a name that had haunted his dreams for years: Booty . Chapter 1 – The Call of the Black Mirror Xiu Ren was a former cryptographer for the Global Data Authority, now a drifter chasing ghosts on the net. His last assignment—code‑named “Hei Si” (the Black Mirror)—had ended in a catastrophic data breach. The breach revealed a hidden algorithm that could rewrite reality itself. The authorities erased his identity, labeling him a rogue. With a bounty on his head, he vanished into the shadows.
When the light dimmed, the sphere displayed a single line of code, glowing in a deep indigo: In the central chamber stood a massive crystal
Within it, thoughts floated like luminous orbs. Xiu Ren reached out and plucked one: “Peace for the world” . The orb pulsed, and the void obeyed, sending ripples that traveled back through the crystal to the surface world.
*And somewhere, deep in the quiet of the xu li zhi , a faint echo of a name still lingers— Booty . — . Mei Tui, her purpose fulfilled, dissolved into pure
function xuLiZhi(input) { return realityWarp(input); } Booty interpreted it instantly: Xiu Ren felt the weight of the past lift. He was ready. Chapter 4 – The Return of Mei Tui A soft chime echoed through the chamber. From a hidden alcove emerged a woman—silver hair, obsidian eyes—carrying a small, humming device shaped like a rabbit’s ear. She stepped forward, her voice a melodic echo: “I am Mei Tui, the echo of the void you summoned. You have freed me, Xiu Ren.” She placed the device into the crystal’s core. The sphere resonated, expanding outward until the whole station trembled. The walls dissolved into streams of light, revealing a vast, star‑filled void—the xu li zhi .
Xiu Ren felt a surge of déjà vu. Years ago, in a suppressed file labeled “Project Mei Tui” , he had read about a subject who could using the xu li zhi algorithm. The subject had been a test subject— a rabbit in a lab —hence the nickname. The experiment was aborted after the subject vanished into a self‑created void, taking the data with her.
When a cryptic email arrived, its subject line read: The attachment was a single line of corrupted Chinese characters, a fragment of a long‑lost manuscript known as the Codex of No. 6251 . The codex, whispered among underground scholars, promised to unlock the “xu li zhi” —the “Void of Reason” —a plane where thoughts become matter.
