Volume 1: The Human World: Phoenix Rising in Fire Chapter 256: Primordial Dream (6)
"You saved me again , thank you. If you need my help in the future, I will go through fire and water for you!" Hua Xi stood up and strode outside.
"Where are you going?" Wujiang sat by the fire without moving, just raised his head and looked at her quietly.
"Go find Long Qianyue. I can't abandon him."
"I have brought you to the sealed place of the Sword Spirit. Here, if you go out at night, it is a hundred times more dangerous than the Nightmare Beast." Wujiang said to her kindly.
Hua Xi raised his head and looked at the night outside the cave in a trance, "I can't care about the danger. I don't want him to die."
"He won't die." Wujiang said.
"How do you know?" Hua Xi looked at him.
Wujiang smiled slightly, "You, me, him, and Shenyue Qianhe are all people chosen by the Emperor to come to the prehistoric world to find something, and then enter the sword tomb to find their own summoning sword."
This was the first time Hua Xi heard about this, and he suddenly understood: was this the reason why they came here inexplicably?
"What are you looking for?"
"A dream." When Wujiang said this, the expression on his face suddenly became a little strange, somewhat different from his usual calm indifferent expression.
Hua Xi's heart moved, and he blurted out, "Did you have that dream too?"
"Everyone who comes to the prehistoric world will have dreams. This is the territory of the nightmare beast. Under his mental control, you will see... and have nightmares." Wujiang said, his eyes flickering.
His change of words was so unnatural, does he look like a liar?
"Little monk, monks don't tell lies. If you lie, your tongue will be pulled out." Hua Xi deliberately frowned and threatened him.
Wujiang was stunned, a blush flashed across his handsome face, and he lowered his head and chanted a Buddhist name.
"My Buddha is merciful. All phenomena are like dreams, illusions, bubbles, and shadows. They are like dew and lightning. You should view them in this way."
"What's all this nonsense?" Hua Xi turned around and asked, "What did you want to say just now? Speak clearly!"
"Donor, can we get to the bottom of everything in the world? It is better to live a simple and comfortable life without worries and concerns. That is the ultimate happiness."
After hearing what he said, Hua Xi almost couldn't help rolling her eyes. Because he was sitting and she was standing, she simply stretched out her hands and rubbed his bald head twice.
"Little monk, have you become stupid from chanting sutras?"
"You--" Wujiang raised his head and looked at her somewhat angrily. She actually touched his head and treated it like a toy.
"I thought you had no desires and wouldn't be angry." Hua Xi smiled, as if he was teasing a decent woman.
"I am not angry, but why do you have to force me?" Wujiang lowered his eyes and regained his composure.
"Who told you to only say half of the words? Tell me, what will you see if you are controlled by the Nightmare Beast's mental power?" Hua Xi let go of his head and rubbed his hands. He didn't expect that this monk's head was quite nice to touch...
"This is a dream from the ancient times. If you don't understand, you can ask the master after you return to Xuanyun Sect." Wujiang clasped his hands together, ready to continue chanting.
"Why don't you tell me now what's wrong with me?" Hua Xi was completely confused. He was clearly about to say it, so why did he suddenly stop?
"I don't want to say." His reason was so simple.
"You--" Hua Xi looked at him as if he was looking at a stone, and had no idea what to do.
I've never met such a difficult person.
