After that, he went around to help people look after things to accumulate merit for Huang Xianer and restore his magic power.

    **"The End of Ten Days": Ten-day countdown, a desperate carnival in the gambling game of life and death** Do you dare to challenge the ten-day countdown to death? In the End, time is not salvation but a noose. Every ten days, everything returns to zero, memory is annihilated, and there is only an endless cycle of despair and bloody games - this is the playground of gods and the slaughterhouse of human nature. **The Death Mystery of the Twelve Zodiac Signs** The deceit of the rat, the lies of the sheep, the betrayal of the dog... The twelve zodiac signs become the masters of the game, weaving death traps with weird national rules. Participants need to bet their lives and win the chips of "Tao", but even if they win, what awaits you may be Tianlong's sanctions. **The ultimate game between liars and madmen** The protagonist Qi Xia, a "villain" who is good at lying, has become the team's only hope for survival. When he awakened the "Echo" power, memory and madness were intertwined. He was no longer satisfied with breaking the game, but challenged the rule makers as a chess player. When intelligence turns into fuel for madness, is it the awakening of human nature or the beginning of depravity? **Endless cycle of annihilation and rebirth** Death here is not the end. Every ten days, flesh and blood are reborn and memories are cleared. Only those with firm faith can retain the broken past. When companions turn into strangers, when trust turns into a blade, can you catch the last glimmer of humanity amidst lies and betrayal? **Full of suspense, mind-exploding** The author uses the cycle of time and space as the bones and the strange stories of Chinese customs as the blood to create layers of nested copies of death. From the psychological strangulation of the "Liar's Game" to the desperate situation of the "Year of Disaster", every game is a carnival of intelligence, and every choice is a test of human nature. "The End of Ten Days" is by no means a traditional cool novel, but an intracranial storm that tears apart the soul. When the tenth day bell rings, are you ready to uncover the ultimate secret of the End? **(Warning: You may fall into a ten-day insomnia cycle after reading this)

The most amazing thing is that when Shen Lingyi dashed off the divorce agreement, everyone instantly became crazy about chasing his wife!
