Chapter 431 Wei Yuan's Forgotten Matters
Under the guidance of the Queen Mother of the West, Wei Yuan approached the scroll of Kunlun books.
Then, the words on the scroll twisted and transformed into pictures, landscapes of Jiangnan, and the future of the famous constable after the death of the great thief. The expression on Wei Yuan's face slowly solidified as he stared fixedly at the red-clad figure of Jiangnan leaving the returning team and riding back to Jiangnan. He watched her living in Jiangnan without him.
The dignified woman took a half step back.
After thinking for a moment, the flowing light on the Kunlun book scattered, enveloping Wei Yuan once again.
This was the mystical power of the Yellow Millet Dream. For Wei Yuan, the passage of time merged once more with Jiangnan within the trial. Wei Yuan watched the young woman ride her horse through Jiangnan, watched her black hair turn white, and finally watched her sit before a tombstone, pouring out a pot of strong liquor.
She was looking at him, and he was looking at her.
She was looking at Jiangnan without him.
He was looking at the water town where she was.
Decades seemed to pass in an instant.
Accompanied by the thunderous tide of the Qiantang River, the Buddha bell tolled its final sound.
The story of Jiangnan came to an end.
But Wei Yuan was slow to awaken from it, his aura heavy.
After a long while, he slowly exhaled, suppressing the surging emotions in his heart, and then looked at the dignified woman, slowly saying, "Are you... the Queen Mother of the West?"
The dignified woman smiled gently, "I am not her, or rather, I am just a fragment of her preserved at a certain moment. I don't know where the real her is now, so I can't help you. I can only say that even my connection with her has been blocked and severed."
Wei Yuan was silent, and said, "Since Jue is also in the trial."
"Then she should be safe now."
"Naturally."
"Where is she?"
The dignified woman said, "It's useless for you to ask this."
"As long as you leave here, your last memories will disappear."
"Leave?"
Wei Yuan frowned, "Isn't there a triple trial?"
The dignified woman smiled, "But who said you have to break through all three consecutively? Little fellow, don't take the trials of West Kunlun so simply." She glanced back at the Kunlun Jade Book left behind by the real Queen Mother of the West, and with a flick of her sleeve, Wei Yuan was gone.
..................
At this moment, West Kunlun in the mortal world.
Nüjiao did her best not to reveal her triumph, maintaining the demeanor of the Qingqiu Kingdom Lord, the Tushan Goddess, and her eldest sister. She waited with a smile for the second trial. The second trial of Kunlun was not difficult. History recorded that anyone who could pass the first trial could certainly pass the second.
It could even be said that the second trial was almost like a formality.
At least, that's how it seemed on the surface.
But then, Nüjiao frowned slightly, sensing the change in the spiritual energy on Kunlun Mountain. With another glance, she saw Wei Yuan's figure appearing on the summit of Kunlun Mountain. The many Kunlun gods looked at each other, wondering if the God of War had failed the second trial.
But that didn't make sense...
Anyone who passed the first trial had no trouble with the second.
Could this be the first time ever?
And the next moment, a woman with a dignified bearing appeared beside Wei Yuan.
The expressions of the many Kunlun gods changed slightly. They hurriedly restrained their doubts and bowed respectfully. The white-haired Nüjiao narrowed her eyes, saw that Wei Yuan was not injured and his spirit had not been damaged, and then looked at the Queen Mother of the West, hooking the corners of her mouth to reveal the characteristic heroic and gentle smile of the Tushan Goddess.
"So it's the Queen Mother of the West..."
"You're still here."
The Queen Mother of the West, even if she was only a fragment of the past, also raised her chin slightly, responding with the dignified and luxurious composure of the Kunlun summit, "Who is it? So it's Tushan Nüjiao. No wonder there's a fox smell on Kunlun."
Nüjiao smiled, "As expected of you, your nose is still so sharp."
"Heh heh heh..."
"Heh heh heh..."
Perfectly flawless pursed-lip smiles.
This place, was—
The master of West Kunlun.
The inheritor of the Shennong Whip.
The Kunlun Goddess, the ruler of the goddesses of the Mountain and Sea Era.
The Tushan Goddess, the origin of the legend of the Nine-Tailed Fox in the world.
Even in the major pantheons, they were top-ranked, peerless beauties, smiling together, like the spring sun, like the wind of Jiangnan in May.
Warm and gentle.
The many Kunlun gods shivered in unison, feeling the temperature on Kunlun Mountain drop again.
They stiffly lowered their heads little by little.
Eyes watching the nose, nose watching the heart.
I don't know anything.
I didn't see anything.
The Queen Mother of the West smiled wryly, looking helplessly at Nüjiao, whose appearance was no less than the Queen Mother of the West of that year, and sighed, "Forget it, it's been a long time since we've seen each other. I've lost face in front of the younger generation. Speaking of which, the human world is indeed prosperous. The rouge and powder have become even better."
She smiled, "They can even make you look no different from back then."
Nüjiao smiled, pursing her lips, "Yes."
"The rouge and powder are indeed good. I like them very much."
"It's a pity that for some people, even if they use rouge and powder, it's useless, so they never use them."
Kunlun Gods: "............"
I didn't hear anything.
Nüjiao looked at Wei Yuan, suddenly startled, seeing Wei Yuan stunned and lost in thought, his eyes faintly red. She frowned, reached out her finger and poked Wei Yuan, and said, "What's wrong with you? What exactly was the first trial?"
Wei Yuan was stunned for a moment, and said, "I..."
He frowned, only feeling that his memory was blank, as if there were large patches of fog.
This was to prevent too much memory from coming at once, causing people to lose their cognition.
As time passed, the memory would slowly recover.
But now, he shook his head and said, "I, forgot."
Nüjiao frowned, "That's not right... with your personality, you're very similar to Yu. Even if you've experienced a lot of things, it's impossible for you to have such emotional fluctuations... What happened..." She subconsciously replaced Wei Yuan with Yu. The person who could cause such intense emotional fluctuations in King Yu.
"............"
Nüjiao pondered, "It doesn't seem like there is."
Then she quickly reacted. Although his eyes were not red, if other intense emotional fluctuations, such as fleeing in embarrassment, counted... the white-haired fox goddess understood and suddenly looked at the Queen Mother of the West: "Was Jue also in his trial?"
The Queen Mother of the West seemed to understand something, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly.
She said even more dignifiedly, "Guess?"
Nüjiao: "............"
"She must be!"
Her eyes stared at the Queen Mother of the West: "What happened between them?!"
The Queen Mother of the West lightly covered her lips with her sleeve and smiled, "What did they experience? Separation of life and death, a promise with one's body, or even actively proposing marriage, the lights of the mortal world, and even life and death together, never abandoning each other. Tushan Nüjiao, guess how many there are?"
The smile on Nüjiao's face froze.
"You saw everything?"
"Of course, everything."
"... Did you keep any Moonlight Dew recordings?"
"Heh... Guess? Could it be that you, Tushan Nüjiao, are very interested?"
"Oh? Is that so?"
Nüjiao looked at the Queen Mother of the West with a dangerous smile.
This incarnation left behind by the Queen Mother of the West endured the joy in her heart, looking at Nüjiao with dignity and composure.
The Kunlun gods shivered: "It's so cold..."
An old god murmured, "I seem to have returned to my childhood... At that time, I was very young, the first time I came to Kunlun Mountain. When these two goddesses met, they were just like now..."
The same appearance and aura as now, but before he could open his mouth.
The old god was directly entangled by vines and buried in the ice and snow.
Clean and neat.
He wasn't given a chance to say those words.
And at this moment, Nüjiao heard a crisp cracking sound, turned her head, and saw Wei Yuan lowering his head, his hands gripping the wheelchair, unconsciously exerting force, actually crushing the wheelchair. Then, Wei Yuan stiffly raised his head, his forehead twitching, and smiled stiffly:
"Witch Nüjiao, let's go back first."
"Don't say anymore."
For some reason.
An intense urge to stop the conversation between the Queen Mother of the West and Nüjiao was echoing in his heart.
Just the words of the Queen Mother of the West just now, even if he had lost his memory, he now felt his brow frantically twitching. For some reason, he had a feeling of being publicly executed. And what was even worse was that he himself didn't know where this urge and feeling came from. Looking at these Kunlun gods, he had the urge to draw out Xingtian's axe and become that iron bull, swinging the axe around indiscriminately.
Lowering his head, he looked at the steep Kunlun Mountain.
Why?
Wei Yuan pondered.
Why would he have the urge to jump down from here directly?
What exactly happened in the trial?
Wei Yuan had a headache, and a subconscious instinct emerged in his heart, hoping that the scene of the Queen Mother of the West and Nüjiao's conversation just now could disappear from his mind. This urge came suddenly and was extremely strong. And the worst thing was that Wei Yuan was very sure that this memory could never disappear.
And in a certain period of time in the future, when recalling the memory, this memory would be even more intense.
At this time, the Queen Mother of the West raised her eyes, and a hint of surprise appeared on that dignified face.
The Kunlun Jade Book, which was left in the trial site, lit up.
Flowing light overflowed.
Two auras of true spirits flew out, heading straight for a distant place.
The Queen Mother of the West frowned, subconsciously raised her hand, already drawing out her magic power to weave a net, but in the end, she did not stop these two true spirits. She understood something in her heart. The previous trial was a projection of the true spirit aura of the living beings who had lived in the past, evolving the history of the past.
In other words, it contained the true spirits of all the living beings near Lin'an Prefecture and Jinshan Temple at that time.
Under normal circumstances, after the trial ended, these true spirits would quiet down again.
But judging from the current situation, I am afraid that there are living beings in the human world corresponding to these two true spirits.
Therefore, it is now attracting these true spirit auras to pass.
And those two people, after obtaining the true spirit, will also have this dream that is both true and false, and will restore part of their past memories. Rather than saying it is a big dream, it is better to say that it is really a history in the Song Dynasty, as if reincarnation, real and not false, at least... In addition to the original history, they will also remember the misty rain of Jiangnan, remember the story of the great thief and the famous constable.
And this avatar left behind by the Queen Mother of the West thought of an even deeper level—
The beings in that history all suffered.
There are only two core reasons.
Why did Bai Suzhen still flood Jinshan after receiving Fahai's message?
Why does she have such magic power?
Water-based divine power...
The Queen Mother of the West narrowed her eyes, calculated slightly, and was thoughtful.
Is this the reason why the Jade Book actively chose this history?
It is because there is inherently a calamity in the human world corresponding to this matter, so it took advantage of the situation to evolve this history.
And now, the calamity is endless, spreading from the trial to the human world.
This first level can be considered passed, but it is still far from being passed.
After all...
That White Snake was sealed under Jinshan Temple during the reign of Emperor Renzong of Song, and it has been almost a thousand years now.
………………
And at this time.
In the Women's Kingdom.
The innocent and ignorant Heavenly Maiden Jue, who was asleep, blinked her eyes and woke up again.
Then,
That memory.
That history.
It was even a longer period of time than Wei Yuan experienced. Like a flood, it impacted the girl's mind, and the appearance of Wei Yuan, which was different from the past, was simply like rounds of bombardment directly hitting the spiritual platform, non-stop and never-ending.
'Be my wife, and I'll buy you the best rouge and powder.'
'Hey, Miss Jue.'
'This is a scenic spot in the southeast. Even if it's not the Qixi Festival, there are many temple fairs and acrobatics. Five days later, you'll have a holiday. How about we go to the temple fair together?'
'Marry her to me!'
The expression on the girl's face solidified little by little.
