Folklore: The baby starts the game, and the mother takes off her painted skin

Chapter 329: Lady Liu's Former Residence

Perhaps Liu Wenzhi also knew that Liu Bai didn't want to get close to the Liu family, so he said hello to Liu Ruzhi and Liu He.

Liu Wenzhi brought Liu Bai to his courtyard.

This is also the place where Liu Bai came last time.

When he got here, Liu Bai discovered that Liu Wenzhi had already prepared a table full of food and cast a magic circle on it.

As soon as Liu Bai arrived, Liu Wenzhi removed the magic circle on the table, and the room was immediately filled with fragrance.

"Haha, wash your hands and eat first, and then we'll talk after you finish eating."

Liu Wenzhi smiled happily, and it was a happiness that came from the heart.

This made Liu Bai feel like an ordinary teenager visiting his uncle's house, and the house he visited was that of an uncle who loved him very much.

"okay."

Liu Bai washed his hands in the basin beside him, then came to the table to eat.

They were all common dishes, at most the ingredients were scarce, and they were all mountain spirit meat. Liu Bai picked up a piece of venison and tasted it, and it was so delicious that even he, who had eaten too many mountain spirits and river monsters, couldn't help but brighten his eyes and gave a thumbs up.

Liu Wenzhi's craftsmanship is really not exaggerated.

Judging from what Liu Bai has eaten so far, there is really no one who can surpass Liu Wenzhi in cooking skills.

Seeing Liu Bai eating happily, Liu Wenzhi was also happy.

"I have nothing to do these days, so I just like to tinker with food."

"Uncle Wen has great cooking skills."

By the time Liu Bai finished eating, the sky had darkened.

Liu Wenzhi took Liu Bai to see the room he had prepared and introduced the layout of the yard. It was really no different from that of an ordinary uncle.

After finishing his work, Liu Bai started to ask about the Liu family's blessed land.

Liu Wenzhi still smiled and said, "Don't worry, Xiaobai, you're new here, take a good rest first."

night.

When Liu Bai finished his work and lay on the bed in this foreign "hometown", he was quite emotional.

Xiao Cao was mumbling something, and it was obvious that she was very satisfied with Liu Wenzhi, "Sir, now you know why the queen kept Liu Wenzhi in the first place."

"understood."

The reason is very simple, it is because Liu Wenzhi really treats Liu Bai as a family member.

Silent all night.

Liu Bai felt as comfortable sleeping here as at home.

The next morning, after waiting for Liu Bai to get up, I found that Liu Wenzhi had already prepared breakfast.

After eating and drinking, the uncle and nephew sat in the yard and chatted.

It was only then that we started talking about business.

"Your mother probably hasn't told you about the news of our Liu family's blessed land, right?" Liu Wenzhi asked after careful consideration.

"That's not the case."

Madam Liu would never tell Liu Bai about the Liu family.

"Back then, the family didn't allow Sister Qingyi to enter this blessed land. Later, when she had the ability to go there on her own, she no longer cared about it."

Liu Wenzhi even explained it, and then he said thoughtfully: "This blessed land was actually moved back by our Liu family's first ancestor from the Land of the Fallen God."

"At that time, all these evil spirits had been driven to the forbidden area. When he traveled to the Land of the Falling Gods, he accidentally discovered a treasure land that was helpful for our Liu family to practice the magic of 'Time Return'. So he found a way to move that treasure land back and it became our Liu family's own blessed land."

After explaining the origin of this blessed land, Liu Wenzhi asked again: "How long can you reverse it by using this time now?"

Liu Bai had only used it once when he was at the Bai family, and it could save him a breath of time at that time.

"Now, we should be able to reverse three breaths of time."

That is to say, within three breaths, no matter how serious and fatal the injury was, Liu Bai would not die immediately.

They can all be fully restored instantly.

"Awesome."

Liu Wenzhi praised him, and then said: "But if you practice the magic of time travel to a high level, you can not only travel back a longer time yourself, but also travel back for others."

"For example, if Liu Ruzhi was killed in front of me by a single blow, I could reverse time within an incense stick of time and pull her out of this long river of time."

"This……"

After listening to this, Liu Bai felt that the Liu family's magical skill was not only powerful, but also completely at the cheating level.

Liu Wenzhi looked at his shocked nephew and said with a smile: "Of course, if this is used on others, the cost and difficulty will be countless times greater."

"Liu Wenzhi, you should talk about the blessed land first before showing off yourself."

The grass ruthlessly sabotages.

Liu Wenzhi seemed to be used to it, and nodded without any embarrassment.

"This blessed land is on the top of the South Mountain. Its name is 'Time and Shadow'."

"A blessed place of time."

Liu Bai muttered, "Is there any danger in there?"

If there is, then we should prepare for it early.

Liu Wenzhi laughed and said, "This is our own blessed land. There is no danger. After you go in, Xiaobai, you just need to try your best to comprehend the mystery of this time."

"How do you feel it?"

"Every batch of people who go in will experience something, and after they are done with it, they will make a decision that they will regret..."

"When that time comes, will it be time for enlightenment to return?"

"Exactly."

Liu Wenzhi nodded.

"Don't worry, Xiaobai, it's all an illusion inside. You just need to feel it and experience it well. There's no need to feel any psychological pressure."

"Ah."

Liu Bai nodded to indicate that he would take note of it.

Liu Wenzhi warned again: "Remember, no matter what choice you make, you must follow your heart. The more you follow your heart, the more you will understand."

"it is good."

It’s a very simple blessed land. Liu Bai originally thought it would be very complicated, but now it seems... he should be able to return to Zouyin City after staying there for a few days.

It wasn't long before.

The head of the Liu family, Liu He, brought Liu Ruzhi to pay a visit to the two ancestors, one big and one small, and asked when they would go to the blessed land.

Liu Wenzhi asked Liu Bai for his opinion.

"The sooner the better. How about this afternoon?"

"Anytime you want." Liu Wenzhi still gave the same answer.

Liu Bai was about to speak, but was interrupted by Liu Wenzhi before he could say anything.

The Liu family ancestor sighed and said, "How about tomorrow, I'll take you to see where your mother grew up."

The place where my mother grew up... Liu Bai's heart trembled slightly.

"it is good."

There is no reason to refuse this.

If necessary, he could even give up the opportunity to go to the blessed land and visit the place where his mother grew up.

"Do you still keep that place?"

Xiaocao was a little stunned and surprised when she heard what Liu Wenzhi said.

"It was definitely demolished in the beginning, but after I became the ancestor of the Liu family, I had it rebuilt."

Liu Wenzhi explained with a smile.

"Okay, let's go and take a look now." Xiaocao urged anxiously.

"Why didn't you see it when the lady came last time?"

It remembered something and asked again.

"You saw it, but you're too lazy to say it."

Liu Wenzhi stood up and said something.

Seeing this, Liu He and Liu Ruzhi hurriedly got up and said goodbye and left.

They both understood the principle of standing up and seeing the guests off.

"Let's go too."

Liu Wenzhi didn't use any means or strength, and the two of them just went out like ordinary uncle and nephew.

Liu Wenzhi was even considerate enough to lock his own yard.

Liu Bai was also curious about who else in the Liu family dared to trespass into his yard.

After going out, Liu Wenzhi led the way. The two left from the left side, walked around the yard and headed deeper into the forest.

At first Liu Bai thought it would be very far, but he never expected that Liu Wenzhi had stopped before he had walked for half a cup of tea.

At this distance, they can be considered neighbors.

Liu Wenzhi stopped in front of a hill.

When Liu Bai saw him stop, he carefully sensed his surroundings, but he saw nothing.

The methods used by those who seek to attain enlightenment through stealth are quite sophisticated.

Liu Wenzhi stretched out his hand and knocked in the air, as if knocking on a door. In an instant, ripples appeared in the surrounding space like a water curtain, and a door suddenly appeared in front of the two of them.

"Let's go, just go in."

Liu Wen took a step forward, and Liu Bai followed closely behind.

Then he found himself in front of a courtyard gate. It looked normal from the outside. Just like Liu Wenzhi's courtyard, the gate was locked and padlocked.

He took out the key from his waist and opened the door.

This time, before Liu Bai even entered, Xiao Cao had already rushed in through the crack in the door.

Liu Bai followed in and saw the grass flying in the air, running around in the rooms at an extremely fast speed.

Liu Baidu had just come in, and Xiaocao had already walked back and forth several times.

You can even hear its slightly whimpering cry.

Liu Bai looked around and found that the place where his mother used to live was indeed a little different.

The yard is similar to Liu Wenzhi's, not very big, and about the same size as the one in Huangliang Town.

But even in such a small yard, Madam Liu dug a small lotus pond. There was a small pavilion beside the lotus pond, and a peach tree was planted beside the pavilion. At this time, the peach tree had lost its leaves, but the peaches did not fall to the ground.

"Haha, I picked some and ate them. They tasted pretty good."

When Liu Wenzhi saw Liu Bai's gaze linger there for a moment, he knew what he was curious about.

What Liu Bai didn't expect was that in this small yard, Madam Liu had actually set aside a small area for raising chickens and even built a chicken coop.

"Did mom raise chickens before?"

As soon as Liu Bai finished speaking, Xiao Cao had already flown back, humming and chirping, "At first, the Queen thought it was fun so she bought a few chicks, and later I was the one who raised the chickens."

"Ah, ah, poor little grass. It has to get up before dawn every day to feed the chickens."

Perhaps Xiaocao really recalled the tragic experience at that time, and after she finished talking about it, she started crying.

"It's okay. When we return to Huangliang Town, I can ask mom to buy you a few chicks so you can recall your childhood."

As Liu Bai spoke, he went to the house on the right.

Xiaocao was so angry that she screamed loudly, but she still followed.

"Fortunately, Xiaocao is out with the Master now, otherwise Xiaocao would definitely be raising deer at home again."

The room that Liu Bai first entered was a place where miscellaneous items were stored.

But at this moment it was empty, with nothing inside.

Xiao Cao floated in the air, introducing Liu Bai like a treasure: "Sir, this is where we used to store grain. There are a few rice bags here, and there is bacon hanging over there. And here, this is where the New Year's goods are placed. Every year when the New Year is approaching, my wife and I will go to Liujia Town..."

The grass kept chattering away, and it remembered clearly what should be placed in each position.

Liu Wenzhi did not interrupt and just followed Liu Bai closely.

While listening to Xiaocao's introduction, I was also lost in memories.

After coming out of the utility room, Liu Bai went to the living room again. This living room was not much different from the one in Huangliang Town's home.

Even the position of the table is the same, giving Liu Bai a feeling of being home when he enters the house.

I came out of the hall and went to the kitchen, which was fully stocked with everything.

Xiaocao continued to introduce the stories in detail, and even told several stories that happened thousands of years ago. For example, one time, Madam Liu was roasting sweet potatoes in the stove. As a result, she was reading too hard, and when she came back to look at them, the sweet potatoes had turned into charcoal.

But for Xiaocao, the sweet potatoes were still extremely sweet.

Because that was the first roasted sweet potato she and Madam Liu had ever eaten.

After looking at the kitchen, I went to the study.

There are indeed a lot of books in here, but they are all new, obviously put here by Liu Wen.

"Sister Qingyi...your mother loved reading books at that time. She had all kinds of books. I would often come to her to finish my homework."

This time it was Liu Wenzhi who took the initiative to introduce.

Xiaocao was standing on the desk by the window.

"At that time, the queen loved to sit here and read. When it was not raining, she would read in the pavilion. When it rained or it was night, she would come back and read by the window."

"This is where she put the oil lamp. I will stay here and add oil for the lamp for the queen."

"When you put the candles in, cut the wicks for her."

As Xiaocao spoke, he looked out the window, as if he was trapped in the experience of that year.

Liu Bai listened to its chattering and looked at the desk by the window.

It also seemed as if I saw Madam Liu in front of the desk.

She just sat there, holding a book in her hand, flipping through it carefully. Xiao Cao squatted beside her, holding her chin with both hands, staring out the window in a daze.

But in a daze, Liu Bai actually found that Madam Liu... turned back.

She just turned around and looked at him.

"mother."

Liu Bai shouted subconsciously.

Liu Wenzhi was also stunned for a moment, and shouted in surprise: "Sister Qingyi?"

"No progress at all."

Madam Liu first glanced at Liu Wenzhi coldly, with a tone of disappointment in him.

Liu Wenzhi was not angry, but very happy. He said cheerfully: "It's normal to have no progress in front of Sister Qingyi."

After saying this, he bowed and left the study.

This was left to the mother and son.

Xiao Cao flew around Lady Liu and said, "Hey, you are not the empress. No, you are not the current empress."

"This is the thought I left behind when I brought you to the Liu family."

"You are here now for the Liu family's blessed land, right?"

Madam Liu's cold voice sounded, and she asked expressionlessly.

"Exactly."

Liu Bai has become accustomed to Madam Liu's magical skills.

"Actually, that place isn't that useful. You keep going back and forth, but you haven't even experienced much time. How can you understand time?"

"These things are things that you can only understand after living for hundreds or thousands of years."

Madam Liu said with disdain.

"Is the kid still going?"

Liu Bai asked tentatively.

"Go, why not? The Liu family owes us that money." Madam Liu sneered, "If you go, you'd better use up the little time you have in there."

Liu Bai was about to speak when he saw Madam Liu pointing her finger at his forehead.

In an instant, Liu Bai felt a spot of light between his eyebrows.

Then a new memory appeared in his mind.

He "saw" Madam Liu standing in the study, raising her right hand and gently leaning back like turning a clock.

In an instant, the sky was spinning and the stars were moving.

Liu Bai watched the changing sky and the rotation of the sun and the moon outside through the small window.

He didn't know how many times he turned around, but he only knew that finally he saw himself walking in from outside the yard through the window.

At this point, the picture disappears.

Everything is in line with reality.

"This is the reversal of time. You can simply understand it as... the future."

Madam Liu spoke softly, but it shocked Liu Bai even more. It also reminded him of the two human skins he saw underground in Huangliang Town.

Could it be that that was really the self that Madam Liu rescued from the past and the future?
"But we can only wait and see, as the present is the result of the past deduced."

"If we deduce the future from now on, we can see countless threads, and each thread represents a future."

"And if I want to rescue someone from the future, even if it's just an ordinary person, do you know what the price is that I have to pay?"

"what?"

"Death."

"what!"

Looking at the stunned Liu Bai, Madam Liu sneered, "So you don't have to have any hope. What you can comprehend now is useless, and you can't comprehend what is useful."

"Ah."

Liu Bai nodded slowly. After witnessing his mother's great power, he gradually calmed down and returned to reality.

"Well, don't wait. There's nothing to wait for."

"Liu Wenzhi."

Madam Liu called out, and a brisk voice immediately rang out from the courtyard at the door, "Hey, Sister Qingyi."

"Take him now," Madam Liu ordered bluntly.

"okay."

Liu Wenzhi responded, and Liu Bai nodded to Madam Liu and walked out.

In the study, Xiao Cao circled around Madam Liu again, muttering, "Madam, the young master seems a little silly."

"Let's work together to trick him, and he won't even know whether you are real or fake."

Madam Liu looked at Xiaocao as if she were a fool.

Too lazy to pay attention.

She just walked out of the door, walked slowly in the yard, looking at everything around her, and her eyes finally showed a slight change.

She seemed to have returned to the time when she was a hidden dragon.

It was precisely because of that period of silence that she came into being, so this yard was indeed a witness to her most difficult time.

The grass floated out of the window as usual.

"My lady, why did you scare the young master like that just now?"

Madam Liu paused for a moment, then said, "He is very talented. If I don't scare him a little, I'm afraid he will get stuck in time, and then even I won't be able to pull him back."

After saying this, Madam Liu turned her head and looked in the direction of the top of the mountain.

At that time, Liu Bai had stopped in front of a huge yellow stone, with Liu Wenzhi standing in front of him and Liu Ruzhi standing beside him.

"The blessed land of time is right here?"

Liu Bai asked as he looked at the yellow stone in front of him.

"Ah."

Liu Wenzhi nodded, took a step forward, put his hand on the top of the yellow stone, and then pressed it lightly. A green rune lit up on the palm of his hand, and the yellow stone changed in time, evolving into a portal.

"Okay, let's go in."

Liu Wenzhi retreated without any hesitation.

Liu Bai glanced at Liu Ruzhi, and just as the latter was about to speak, he opened his mouth, "You go first."

"Yes."

Liu Ruzhi did not dare to resist. She bowed to Liu Wenzhi again, then took two steps forward and stepped in.

Seeing this, Liu Bai said, "Okay, I'll go too, Uncle Wen."

After saying that, he took a step in and disappeared into the Yellowstone.
