Chapter 98 Reunion in the Abyss and Reappearance of the Past (Part 2) "What you believe in...
Before his memories were sealed, Wen Gu had two wishes. One was to find his parents and ask them why they abandoned him, and the other was to stay with the people around him forever and always be by her side.
But now he doesn't have such a persistent idea as before.
Wen Gu looked at the girl beside him.
Ye Qingzhan looked back at him, blinked at him, then turned around and asked the Immortal Tianqi: "Immortal, do you really know where Wen Gu's parents are? The immortal, bathed in moonlight
, his handsome face shimmering with a faint glow. With his eyes slightly lowered, he bent forward, gazing at the crowd gazing up at him. His smile faded, and he suddenly reached out a hand, lifting the two figures from the ground.
He grasped Ye Qingzhan and Wen Gu in his grasp, hugging them.
With his other hand, the immortal Tianqi leisurely formed a seal in the air. A dark crack suddenly appeared where the seal had been formed. He released his grip, throwing the two figures into it.
It all happened so suddenly that Ye Qingzhan, caught in the darkness, cried out in shock as he felt himself plummet.
Wen Gu, one hand tightly wrapped around her waist, tried to transform his free hand into a black lotus mount, but found he could not condense the Yin Sha within him. He could only feel it emanating, as if returning to its old location.
No, it wasn't emanating, but rather, countless hands in the darkness, pulling them from his body.
Wen Gu sensed their fear and desperately tried to cower within him, only to be uprooted.
"No!"
"I don't want to come back, don't come back!"
"Why, why do you want to come back..."
The wails of pain and terror came out of his body and spread in all directions.
Frightened by the sudden screams, Ye Qingzhan hurriedly covered her ears and moved closer to Wen Gu.
For some reason, her heart was extremely irritated by these howls, as if she was like a ghost, and she was very reluctant to come to this place.
Wen Gu, who was only a few feet away, felt her active approach, and her hands around her waist tightened, and she felt happy both physically and mentally.
She hadn't felt so light in a long time.
Her frowning brows relaxed, and Wen Gu gathered all her energy at the soles of her feet. Then, an ice blade appeared in the empty palm of her hand, and the ice blade obeyed the order and flew to the two of them. Under her feet.
With something to step on firmly, Ye Qingzhan's restless heart slowly calmed down, but she still felt strange - this inexplicable restlessness in her body was not the first time lingering in her heart. In Hu Sanniang's sea of consciousness, at certain moments, she was also inexplicably anxious and wanted to hit someone.
Before she could think clearly, the two of them stood steadily on the ground amid waves of roars and curses.
In a strange illusion, people are always used to relying on those who are close to them. Ye Qingzhan is no exception. In the endless darkness, she tightly grasped Wen Gu's arm and carefully Ye Qingzhan looked around.
She had heard from villagers in the past that the immortal Tianqi who roamed the human world had a very strange temper. Ye Qingzhan thought that the immortal Tianqi had started to "get sick" again and had left the two of them in a completely unfamiliar area. In fact, it was not the case. She had seen this place in Wen Gu's dream. It was the boundless strange area.
There was no soil as a ground. The place where one stepped on was paved with black fog, extending to infinity. Sometimes one could see the tragic scene of a river of blood around. After walking a few steps, one could see the determination of a girl in the boudoir to jump into a well. Sometimes there were disputes of cursing and biting...
Ye Qingzhan took a few glances and wanted to close his eyes.
This place, Is this really a place for people to stay? Wen Gu has been here since he was a child, how did he grow up? And how did he endure this endless turmoil, day after day, year after year. After growing up in such an evil and strange environment, it is really commendable that he has not become a world-destroying demon.
Thinking of this, Ye Qingzhan couldn't help but tighten his grip on Wen Gu's arm.
Wen Gu lowered her eyes to look at her, and gripped the ice blade in her hand tighter - she must protect her.
The two walked side by side, not knowing why the immortal Tianqi sent them here. They had thousands of questions in their hearts, but a voice came from their ears.
"Two little friends, don't be nervous," the person who spoke was the "Wild Immortal" who sent the two to the boundless and strange domain without saying a word, "I am happy tonight to help the little ghost king break the bullshit contract he made with those idiots. "
The young boy and girl who were walking together in secret just listened carefully, not daring to miss a single thing, but they didn't know that their appearance at this moment was seen by all the ghosts in the Red Dust Inn.
The ghost guests sat under the stage, cracking melon seeds and watching the actions of the two through the mirror. Li Zhixing stood humbly beside the immortal Tianqi, pouring tea and wine seriously, repenting in his heart.
Just now, he learned of a big thing.
The immortal Tianqi looked at the mirror and continued leisurely: "Relax, I just want you to be there to experience some events in the past, so as to answer the questions and depression in your hearts."
After hearing what he said, Ye Qingzhan and Wen Gu from the Boundless Weird Domain looked at each other. The moment their eyes met, they were sucked into the illusion of the story behind them by a powerful suction force. *
"
Junior brother, in vain we two treated you sincerely, but you did such a bad thing! "A young man in white clothes stood in the air, glaring at the Taoist priest
in white robes not far away. At that time, the Taoist priest in white robes had not yet put on the fox mask. His face was fair, and the corners of his lips were curved upwards, but there was no smile in his eyes. He looked like a weird porcelain doll, blinking and saying, "Brother, what are you talking about? What did I do? I just want you to stay with me forever. I just hope that in this dirty world, no one will be ridiculed and laughed at because of their stupidity, and be looked down upon. This is a world that respects geniuses, and stupid people cannot survive. "
The young man who spoke had an innocent look in his eyes, and his voice was as clear and clean as the floating white robe.
If Ye Qingzhan had not witnessed his brutal act of stealing people's wisdom with her own eyes, she would have believed that he was a good boy. She was hidden in the grass, and continued to peek through the gaps with Wen Gu through the long grass.
The two people standing in the air looked much younger than when they first met, but they were still recognizable as Wen Hua and Mu Wanzhou.
The white-robed Taoist standing opposite them had very similar eyebrows and eyes to Hu Banxian from Camellia Village.
Mu Wanzhou stood shoulder to shoulder with Wen Hua, holding a long whip. His usually gentle eyes were now filled with hatred, and the voice he spoke was even colder than ice and snow: "What did you do to those powerless mortals? Where is my son?"
The smile on the white-robed Taoist's face gradually faded, and his dark pupils stared at her motionlessly, "Senior Sister, why don't you want to call my name? Do I annoy you so much?"
"You deserve it. The young Taoist priest ,
his eyes now dull, tilted his head, seemingly unable to believe what he was hearing. "It's all my fault? Me? I deserve it?" He suddenly laughed out loud, as if hearing a joke, then turned to look at Mu Wanzhou. "Is it wrong for me to want to end the world's competitive spirit? Is it wrong for me to want to be with you forever?" His eyes suddenly turned fierce in the next moment. "You asked where your child is? That bastard—"
"Don't talk about our child like that!" Mu Wanzhou's eyes flushed, and she raised her long whip angrily.
The white-robed Taoist priest met her gaze.
"I threw it away."
The young Taoist priest spoke in a light voice, unconcerned with what he said, and completely unconcerned with the feelings of others. "Why did you give birth to him? Fellow disciples are forbidden to marry, let alone have children! You two are in love, and I can bear the punishment from the sect to cover up for you two, but why, why did you give birth to a beast that took away all your attention, not even a single cent of it for me? Didn't you say that the three of us would be the best of fellow disciples, friends, and family? Why would you, like those two dead men, abandon me?"
The moment he finished speaking, a long whip struck him in the face. The young Taoist priest didn't move, a red mark forming on one side of his face, and blood splattered.
Mu Wanzhou seemed to have used up the last of his strength in this whip, and then he collapsed into Wen Hua's arms, looking at him in tears.
"We never wanted to leave you. But why did you become like this? Do you know what you are saying? Ah Shuo."
The young Taoist priest named Ah Shuo covered his face with his hands, and replied with red eyes: "I know, of course I know, you two want to be together and get married, so I killed that pedantic old man. Anyway, he always thinks I'm stupid, and I'm the same as those two dead people-"
"Did you kill Master?" Wen Gu supported Mu Wanzhou, his usually gentle face covered with frost, "Are you crazy?"
Ah Shuo disagreed, and said calmly: "Yes, what else do you think? That old man said he would punish you two according to the sect rules and drive me away. I said some truths in a fit of rage, and I don't know why he reacted so strongly after hearing it. He almost pissed himself off to death."
This person said it lightly, but the listener's heart had already set off waves of shock.
Ye Qingzhan took a breath and glanced at Wen Gu. His brows were tightly furrowed.
Wen Hua didn't want to look at him anymore and gritted his teeth and said, "You beast! Ask yourself, does your master treat you badly?"
"What's good about it? What's good about it?" Ah Shuo put down his hands that were covering his face and interrupted him, "In places where you can see, he treats everyone equally, with rewards and punishments, but as soon as you go out to gain experience, he will beat me up, calling me stupid as a pig. I have been a disciple for many years, but my skills are surpassed by the younger generation. He said that he had never had such a stupid disciple and regretted accepting me. He also asked me to list the advantages of my fellow disciples one by one and belittle myself." He looked straight at the two people a few steps away, "Senior brother, senior sister, is this the good master you are talking about? He accepted me in for a good reputation, but later thought I was useless. He is a hypocritical person with a sanctimonious appearance, rigid and pedantic, why can't I kill him? What's more, I didn't do it myself. He was the one who couldn't hear the truth, got angry, and damaged his heart meridians. He can't blame anyone else."
Mu Wanzhou and Wen Hua were both stunned for a moment. After a moment, Wen Hua said in a calm voice: "Master, this is the case, but what about those mortals who have no intersection with you, let alone hatred? What did you do to them?"
"I just took something from them," Ah Shuo said in a calm tone, "They have done their best for the paradise on earth, it is not unfair in any way, even if they died."
Mu Wanzhou, who was leaning against Wen Hua, slowly raised his head and looked at him as if he was looking at a madman, "What you believe in is evil!"
"So what?" Ah Shuo's flat voice had ups and downs, "As long as the final result is what I want, no matter it is a broad road or a side door, to me, it is the same, there is no difference."
Although he still didn't know what the evil heresy they were talking about was, Ye Qingzhan really felt that this little Taoist priest named Ah Shuo was stubborn and almost paranoid.
Mu Wanzhouhong seemed to have lost her last bit of patience with him, and hoarsely asked, "I'll ask you one last time. Where did you abandon my child?"
Ah Shuo's face shone with annoyance. "Senior Sister, you had to abandon that beast who's been stealing all your attention and causing you to lose health—"
"He's my child, not a beast."
Interrupted once again, Ah Shuo saw a hatred she'd never felt before on the face of her beloved and beloved senior sister. The words she wanted to say vanished in an instant, along with all her past memories.
"I abandoned him in Jinghu Lake in Liudunling," Ah Shuo said grimly. "You should know that lake. No one has ever emerged from it alive. I abandoned him a year ago. He should be dead by now, rotting and stinking."
Wen Hua and Mu Wanzhou trembled with anger, their gazes blazing with fury.
Ye Qingzhan grabbed Wen Gu's hand and whispered, "It's true, it's true. They really are your parents."
Wen Gu's expression remained unchanged, but she saw the ripples in his eyes.
"Even if we know," Ah said with a smile in his voice, "you have the chance to know today, but you don't have the chance to find it."
