I light incense to worship the gods

As soon as Meng Jiuniang finished speaking, I felt my consciousness being pulled away instantly, and my whole body fell into darkness.

I don’t know how long it took, but I saw a place that was like a fairyland.

There are clouds and mist, clear water and green mountains, exotic flowers and plants, and a fragrant aroma.

Not far away, there is an antique pavilion. Although the pavilion is not big, it is very delicate.

In the pavilion, there is a young man sitting with his eyes closed. His figure looks ethereal in the sunlight.

I walked forward curiously, wanting to see his face clearly.

The boy suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were deep and bright, as if he could see through my heart.

The moment I saw his face, I was so shocked that I couldn't speak. But at this moment, he was dressed in white clothes, elegant and graceful, and his young face seemed to be able to squeeze water.

"Ye...Ye Zeyi?" I instinctively stepped back, but accidentally stepped on a stone and was about to fall.

This young man with a younger version of Ye Zeyi quickly reached out his hand to support me, "Be careful."

Such a familiar voice, full of magnetism and calmness, makes people feel at ease listening to it.

At this moment, I couldn't help but shed tears.

He looked at me doubtfully, with an unprecedented clarity and purity in his eyes, "Why are you crying? Didn't you tell me that we shouldn't have emotions?"

I calmed down my emotions, looked at him, and realized something was wrong.

"Where are we?" I asked, wiping my tears.

"We are in Mingshan Mountain." He replied, "Why don't you remember this after you came out of seclusion?"

He reached out and touched my forehead and asked calmly.

"How long have I been in seclusion?" I asked again.

He counted it with his fingers and said, "It seems to be seven or eight hundred years ago."

There was a bang in my mind, and everything seemed like a world away.

I choked and sat on the chair in the pavilion, feeling a little dazed.

"Emperor Winter, what's wrong with you?" He also sat next to me and asked.

"Emperor Winter?" I turned to look at him and asked doubtfully, "Is it me?"

"Yes." He replied.

"Then what's your name?" I asked cautiously.

He replied calmly, with an extremely calm tone, "Ye Zeyi, have you forgotten the name you gave me? It seems that the result of this retreat is not good."

I was silent again, sitting in this pavilion. I don’t know how long it took, but the sun hanging in the sky only moved its angle for a moment.

"How long does it take for the sun to set here?" My mood at this moment can no longer be expressed in words. I even have some doubts about whether the things in my memory are all a dream, or whether everything now is a dream. .

"The red sun here sets once in a million years." Ye Zeyi replied, "Emperor Winter, you are so strange when you leave seclusion this time. Is there something wrong?"

I shook my head and said with a wry smile, "Maybe my memory is not very good."

Ye Zeyi glanced at me lightly and said nothing. I looked at the scenery around me and fell into deep thought again.

It wasn't until Ye Zeyi got up and walked to a pond that my thoughts were pulled back and he led me there.

He turned around and jumped into the pond filled with fairy energy. However, the water waves that were supposed to come were not stirred up, but instead there was a white lotus. The lotus is very large, with a diameter of one meter, more than enough for a person to sit on it.

Seeing this scene, I thought of the scene in Ye's mansion, and my heart fell to the bottom. Ye Zeyi, who I married, loved lotus very much. Even his bedroom was in the shape of lotus, and only lotus was planted in the garden of the mansion. A sort of.

I walked over and looked down at the lotus floating in the wind in the pond. It was carefree, noble and beautiful, but also very strange.

Did I really just have a long, long dream while I was practicing in Guan Nei?

Thinking, thinking, I began to waver, and even felt that everything I had experienced before was fake.

But why does my heart hurt so much?
  Unknowingly, a drop fell from the eye and happened to fall on the petals of the white lotus in the pond.

It shook the petals. Although it was still in the shape of a lotus, a familiar voice rang in my ears, "These tears are hot."

I quickly wiped away my tears and walked into the main hall behind me. Looking at the unfamiliar environment and the futon in front of me, I sat cross-legged on it and closed my eyes.

It was very quiet at the moment, not even the sound of birds and running water.

At this time, I felt a feeling of being watched behind me.

I didn't look back or reply.

A gentle voice came from behind, "Emperor Winter, long time no see."

His voice was gentle and his emotions were well controlled, but I still didn't answer.

At this time, his tone became serious and he said, "I haven't seen you for so long and you are still the same. Is the so-called avenue really that important to you?"

I felt that he should know something, so I opened my eyes and turned to look at him. This sight shocked me again.

The man behind me was wearing a green gown. His face was very delicate, with a bookish air, and he looked very elegant.

But he looks very similar to Wu Bufan, except that he is thinner, taller, and has a more refined temperament.

"You..." I opened my mouth, and excitement suddenly burst out again, and my voice was even choked, "You..."

"Don't you recognize me?" He smiled slightly, "It seems that you have been in seclusion for too long this time and have forgotten me. My name is Luo Fan, and I am your neighbor."

"Back then you said that there was going to be chaos in the underworld, and that you needed to practice in seclusion to improve your cultivation in order to prevent this disaster from happening. Today is the day you come out of seclusion. Unexpectedly..." When he said this, there was a trace of regret in his eyes, " I didn’t expect that you didn’t even remember me.”

"What about you? Have you ever practiced in seclusion?" I asked. When I thought of my brother Wu Bufan who protected me and loved me, I couldn't help but ask. After all, if he had also gone into seclusion to practice, then maybe what happened to me before was really a dream. If he had not gone into seclusion to practice, So what happened to me before and what happened to me?

"I am not in seclusion." He answered doubtfully, "When you were in seclusion, you asked Ye Zeyi and me to protect you and guard the Mingshan training ground. What? You really don't remember?"

I turned around, and my excitement stabilized again, "No, I just want to see if your cultivation has improved, and if you can help me then."

"Don't worry, over the past few hundred years, although I have not been in seclusion, I have practiced a lot, and I will definitely be able to help you." Luo Fan said. "I came here just to see you. Now that you are out of isolation, I will go back and rest. After all, I haven't had a good night's sleep for a long time because of you."

After that, he turned and left.

Watching his leaving figure, I hesitated for a moment, got up and followed him out.
