5 To The First Ever-So-Wonderful Trial

As Ju-Long pulled me up from the ground, I patted all the dirt off myself and asked him, "What's the next step to the my great reincarnation ?"

Ju-Long replied slightly angry, " Didn't I already told you! Does what I tell you go in one ear and out the other! Of course I'm taking you to the first trial, and on the way I might as well explain your very "special" condition."

After saying that, Ju-Long started to walk in the direction that I assume is where the first test was. So I followed him.

After a while of walking, Ju-Long still hasn't said anything, so I spoked up and said," So the issue about my memories..."

Ju-Long jolted and quickly said," Ah yes! About that, let's start from the beginning." He cleared his throat. "In afterlife, the only thing a soul would need would be their heart. To do that, in the "actual life", the heart would need to be existing. Most of the time though the humans would just make mummies and preserve the heart. However, sometimes the heart might get burned, decomposed, or get destroyed by other means, but the soul would still have their memories if someone remembers them."

"You though, is a special case." Ju-Long continued," Someone seems to have sealed away your heart. You must have wronged someone really badly for them to to that!"

"Why do you say that?" I asked.

"Because the price of that is to not only lose the right of reincarnation, every trace of you will disappear from the living world, as if they never existed at all, and to spend their time in torture forever in hell." Ju-Long replied.

I shuddered. Sounds horrible, I thought to myself.

"Also," Ju-Long stoped.

"Ah it seems we have arrived at the starting point of the first test." Ju-Long said instead.

I looked over his shoulder but all I saw was a giant hole, and when I looked down in it, it seemed never ending.

I faced Ju-Long and asked," Uhhhh... Are you sure we are at the right place?"

"Positive! I've done this many times before, have you forgotten?" Ju-Long smiled at me.

"Anyway, I wish you the best of luck my dearest Xiao Bai!" Ju-Long said happily as he pushed me down that dreadful, giant, never ending pit.
