I, the Memory Master, play with players in my hands

[Think positively, maybe the pioneers really went back to the past to help Yuqing change history? By then, with the help of the pioneers, Dai C won the battle of vision and flesh, and everything will be saved! ]

[Don't forget, the Yuqing sister we know is the current Yuqing who was rescued by Fu Li after she died in the Vision-Flesh War. If the Vision-Flesh War is really won and Yuqing survives, it is hard to say whether she will be enlightened by Fu Li to become a Rememberer in the future.]

[Oh no, someone kill the prophet! If this is true, the history of the Flesh War will be changed, Dai C will not explode, Yu Qing will not sacrifice, and Yu Qing will not be enlightened to become a Rememberer... We will not meet Yu Qing afterwards, and Black Yu Qing will not be born. This is the perfect ending for the mission! ]

【Don’t do that kind of thing! 】

Yuqing and Xing had no idea how the players brainstormed or competed for seats in the basement.

Xing was immersed in the heaviness of Yuqing's words, and Yuqing did not continue to find topics to talk about. The two did not say anything along the way until the Xingcha, which was cruising automatically, stopped at the destination of this trip - Chengnan Street.

For players, this is another brand new map. The shock brought to them by Yuqing's companion mission this time is beyond description. Including the current South City Street, [Downtown Street], [Residential Area], [General's Mansion]... There are as many as four new maps opened, which is completely a mainline-level mission.

The opening of the new map slightly diverted the attention of the players who were previously brainstorming with each other.

"What a nice view……"

This was Xing’s first thought after getting off the Xingrak and seeing the entire Chengnan Street.

Just as Yuqing said, this once bustling downtown area is truly beautiful.

The streets are paved with bluestone slabs, and classical buildings are scattered on both sides of the streets. Although the streets are not prosperous, there are pedestrians walking from time to time, and the various shops in the buildings on both sides also add some fireworks to the streets.

Although the whole street has a strong sense of age, compared to the unprecedentedly prosperous downtown, it gives people a fresh and elegant feeling.

Moreover, the scenery of Chengnan Street was really beautiful - the osmanthus trees on both sides of the street were now full of golden osmanthus flowers, and the breeze blew through the osmanthus flowers, bringing the refreshing fragrance to the entire street. Xing stood on the street, looking at this elegant scenery, smelling the fragrance of the flowers, and felt that the whole person fell into an unprecedented calm.

If possible, Xing even felt that he could stay in this South City Street for a whole day.

"Don't be distracted." Yuqing patted Xing's shoulder. It seemed that because of the scenery in the south of the city, the fatigue and worry on her face were swept away, leaving only a relaxed smile, "I'll take you for a good walk."

"it is good!"

Xing was no longer bothered by Yuqing's heavy experience. He readily agreed and followed Yuqing's footsteps into the quaint street.

Since they were already in the mood to have fun, they naturally wouldn't worry about too many things. Xing emptied her mind of all the worries, such as her lost [memories], Yuqing's heavy mission... Xing threw everything behind her. She just wanted to go for a good stroll with Yuqing and enjoy the rare leisure time.

Just as Yuqing said, she often came to this south city street to relax and knew everything about the neighborhood. She took Xing along the quiet path and came to a teahouse hidden in a private house.

The owner of the teahouse heard the noise and looked up. When he saw that the person coming was Yuqing, he immediately smiled and said, "Oh, Yuqing Xiaowei, you are here? Come on, come in and sit down!"

Facing the shopkeeper's enthusiasm, Yuqing responded with a gentle smile, but she also shook her head: "No need to sit down, could you please bring me a cup of black tea? By the way, Xing..."

At this point, Yuqing turned around and looked at Xing who was following him: "Xing, what about you, what do you want to drink?"

"My words..." Xing looked at the whole row of names on the notice board next to the tea room. After looking for a long time, she didn't see a familiar name. After hesitating for a moment, she looked up at the shopkeeper and asked, "Excuse me, don't you have the Immortal Happy Tea?"

"Happy Immortal Tea?"

The shopkeeper was obviously stunned when she heard Xing say this term. She first glanced at Yuqing, and when she saw that Yuqing was also confused, she turned her gaze back to Xing and said with a smile: "Little sister, you must be an outsider, right? This fairy happy tea should also be a drink from other planets. We don't have it in our Xianzhou Teahouse."

Xing nodded woodenly. In fact, when she asked about "Fairy Happy Tea", she was already a little confused, because she herself didn't know what Fairy Happy Tea was. It was just a voice in her subconscious that told her to ask this question.

"Then... I'd like a cup of black tea, too."

"Okay, two cups of black tea, Yuqing Xiaowei, anything else?"

Hearing the shopkeeper's words, Yuqing stroked his chin and thought for a moment, then nodded: "Two servings of osmanthus cakes."

"Okay, wait a moment."

Xing watched the shopkeeper walk into the tea room and start to get busy. The corners of his mouth twitched, and he looked at Yuqing as if he wanted to say something but stopped.

"Xing, do you have anything to say? Are you not used to drinking tea?" Yuqing also noticed Xing's gaze. She smiled and said, "It's okay if you are not used to it. I will take you to buy a bottle of hot floating goat milk later. It tastes good too."

"No..." Xing shook his head, but didn't say anything else.

She felt that this scene was somewhat familiar, but it seemed... something was missing?

[The mung bean cake is missing! Oh my god, can this be recycled? Wasn't there an Easter egg before where you could meet Yuqing at the entrance of the milk tea shop? It was the same scene as now! ]

[As soon as you mentioned it, I remembered that you bought two cups of Fairy Happy Tea, right? No wonder the pioneer just asked if there was any Fairy Happy Tea. No, this kind of foreshadowing can be recycled? It's too detailed! ]

Yuqing and Xing didn't have to wait long. The shopkeeper soon came out of the tea room with two cups of black tea and two servings of osmanthus cakes, and handed them to Yuqing and Xing respectively.

"how much is it?"

"Master Xiaowei, please don't do that. It's too formal to talk about money!" The shopkeeper saw that Yuqing was really going to pay the bill, so he immediately raised his hand to stop her. "If it weren't for you, the merchants in our area wouldn't be able to survive. Please don't make it difficult for us. Just take it."

"How embarrassing."

Yuqing refused to agree. After arguing with the shopkeeper for a long time, he finally forced the money into the shopkeeper's hand. Then, without waiting for the shopkeeper to give him the change, he quickly left with Xing.

Xing was indeed not used to drinking black tea, but the osmanthus cake was delicious. She followed Yuqing, walking and stopping, drinking tea and eating osmanthus cake. Along the way, she saw many small shops hidden in famous houses. Without exception, all the shop owners greeted Yuqing with a smile - it can be seen that Yuqing's reputation among the people is indeed terrifyingly high.

Yuqing and Xing were strolling aimlessly on Chengnan Street. Xing had been following Yuqing, but this time, she stopped in front of a stall selling antiques.

"What's wrong, Xing? Is there anything you want to buy?" Yuqing also stopped. She followed Xing's gaze and saw that among a pile of broken antiques, there was something that stood out.

It was a golden hair ornament shaped like a bird.

【Yu Duchen! 】

[Ah? Wasn't this something Hua gave to Yuqing, and then Yuqing gave it to Pioneer? How did it appear here? ]

[Could it be that this thing has also traveled through time? ]

Xing didn't think too much like the players. She was just fascinated by the golden hair accessories. For some reason, she felt that the hair accessories looked somewhat familiar.

Yuqing said no more. She bent down, picked up the golden hair ornament, and looked at the stall owner: "Hello, how much is this hair ornament?"

The stall owner was different from all the other shop owners they had met before. She was an old lady with cloudy eyes. After recognizing Yuqing, she did not show much enthusiasm. It was only when Yuqing mentioned the hairpin that she smiled and replied, "This hairpin is very destined to be with you two little girls. I won't charge you for it."

Yuqing was definitely not happy to get something for free. Just as she was about to pay, she met the stall owner's cloudy eyes.

For some reason, at a certain moment, she seemed to see... the stall owner's cloudy eyes reflected an amber light.

"Thank you, Xing, let's go."

Yuqing did not force Xing to pay the bill as she did before. She stuffed the golden hair ornament into Xing's hand, then pulled Xing away quickly.

The old stall owner watched the two people leave, and the turbidity in her eyes completely disappeared, replaced by a pair of amber eyes. The next moment, around her, the space seemed to have prismatic ripples.

Of course, Yuqing and Xing didn’t notice any of this, and the players didn’t see it either.

Yuqing brought Xing to an alley on Chengnan Street. Next to the alley was an ordinary-looking pastry shop, but Yuqing stopped in front of the door of the pastry shop.

Xing followed Yuqing to look at the goods displayed in the pastry shop. When he saw the mung bean cake, Xing was lost in thought for some reason.

The shopkeeper greeted Yuqing with great enthusiasm, just like all the other shop owners before him. After Yuqing made a brief response, she looked at the mung bean cake in the display cabinet.

"Give me two boxes of mung bean cakes."

Volume 1: Chapter 147 Yuqing: I can’t tell the difference, I can’t tell the difference!

Mung bean cake?

Xing suddenly remembered that the thing she felt was missing when she and Yuqing were buying tea was the mung bean cake!

But why? Why do I have such thoughts?

Xing felt his brain becoming confused and his memory becoming increasingly blurred, until Yuqing handed a box of mung bean cakes to Xing.

"Xing, are you okay?"

Yuqing called Xing twice, and Xing gradually regained some consciousness. She looked at the box of mung bean cakes in her hand, which looked more and more familiar, and shook her head: "I'm fine, but... I feel a little tired."

"Really? Then I'll take you to find a place to rest for a while."

Yuqing didn't give the shopkeeper a chance to speak, and directly stuffed the money in before pulling Xing away quickly. Yuqing brought Xing to a small courtyard in a corner of Chengnan Street. Since there were relatively few people in Chengnan Street, the courtyard was empty at the moment.

However, with the backdrop of several osmanthus trees, the courtyard appears to have a more quiet and peaceful feel.

Xing, who was sitting in the courtyard, had calmed down a lot at this moment. She lowered her head and looked at the mung bean cake in her hand, as if thinking about something.

"Would you like to try it?"

After hearing what Yuqing said, Xing took out a piece of mung bean cake from the box without hesitation. He bit it gently, and the mung bean cake instantly turned into powder. The sweet mung bean flavor spread in his mouth, and Xing's eyes suddenly lit up.

It’s delicious!

But this expression didn't last long, because - his voice was a little hoarse.

"It's quite delicious, but a little irritating to the throat." Seeing Xing like this, Yuqing smiled slightly and took a piece of mung bean cake and took a small bite. "I have been eating mung bean cakes from this shop in the south of the city since I was a child. Every time after a busy day, I always come here to buy a box of mung bean cakes..."

Listening to Yuqing's words, Xing's expression suddenly froze.

She seems to be...

Really somewhere, I've heard exactly the same thing.

'Thousands of years ago, when [Dai C] was still there...'

"Time will take away everything that happened... and only the [memories] in my mind will remain..."

In his mind, familiar memories began to flash back. Xing's pupils contracted slightly, and a tingling sensation spread to his brain.

"Xing? Xing, are you okay?"

Yuqing stood up immediately upon seeing this. She was about to use her ability to help Xing sort out his confused mind, but at this moment -

"boom--!!!"

A violent explosion sounded inside Chengnan Street!

Yuqing hesitated for only a second before making her choice. She pointed a finger at Xing's forehead, and a chill flowed into Xing's sea of ​​consciousness. Then, without any hesitation, Yuqing took a step forward and instantly turned into a beam of black light and rushed towards the source of the explosion.

All this happened in a flash, so fast that even the players had no time to react.

【What happened? ! 】

[No, I was happily eating dessert one second, and something exploded the next?! ]

The players didn't react, but Xing recovered first. The breath that Yuqing had just left in her mind straightened out Xing's chaotic thoughts. After reacting, Xing didn't hesitate and ran out directly after Yuqing's footsteps.

Xing's speed could not catch up with Yuqing after all. By the time she arrived at the scene, the situation was out of control - several houses in the residential area were burning with raging fires, and the traces of the explosion were extremely obvious. More than a dozen residents had obviously suffered injuries of varying degrees. Some had only superficial injuries, but some were seriously injured and unconscious.

At this moment, the injured residents had been transferred out of the explosion center. In the fire, Xing saw four different figures.

One of them was protecting all the wounded and civilians behind him. It was Yuqing, who rushed to the scene at the first moment. Yuqing was holding a snow-white long sword in his hand and staring at the three people in front of him vigilantly.

Xing looked closely and found that the three people facing Yuqing were not others, but ordinary residents on the street! Xing had even seen these three people when he passed by this neighborhood before!

At this moment, the appearance of these three people has changed drastically - one of them has half of his body covered with pustules, and even has insect-like claws growing on his back, and the other two also have different degrees of changes. But without exception, all of them have lost their minds at this time, roaring like wild beasts and staring at Yuqing.

"He...what happened to them?"

The residents watching nearby answered Xing's questions.

"They...are infected by the Vision Flesh Parasite."

Xing suddenly remembered what Yuqing had told her the night before, that the protozoan would control the host through parasitism and indiscriminately attack everyone to spread new individuals... Isn't that the current situation? !

Seeing this, the players' hearts skipped a beat.

[Oh no, the visual flesh has really come out, is the visual flesh war about to begin?! ]

[Isn't the parasite of visual flesh highly contagious? Then wouldn't all the people in this city be...]

Xing didn't have time to think too much. When she came to her senses, she had already seen the three residents infected by visual flesh rushing towards Yuqing!

"Sister Yuqing, be careful..."

Before Xing could even express his worries, the battle had already been decided.

When three residents infected by visual flesh rushed towards Yuqing from three different angles, Yuqing only swung the sword in his hand. Xing didn't even see Yuqing's specific movements before the three infected people were already beheaded.

Once a person parasitized by the Vision Flesh is completely infected, he will die and there is no possibility of treatment, so Yuqing's attack was decisive and did not give the Vision Flesh any chance to counterattack. Seeing this scene, the onlookers could only sigh with regret.

"Hey... Three more. I don't know when we will be finished."

"Xiao Wang is such a nice guy. Yesterday he said he would come to my house tonight to play Di Yuan Qiong Yu with me, but he actually..."

"Let's live one day at a time. When will the Black Armor Army arrive? We need to treat these wounded soldiers as soon as possible!"

Xing didn't hear much fear from the residents' words, but instead, everyone was full of pessimism. Xing didn't understand why these residents were not sad when their neighbors died right in front of them, and even looked like they had already given up hope?

Xing wanted to find someone to ask something, but when she was about to speak, Yuqing moved.

Yuqing seemed to have discovered something. He took a quick step forward and rushed into a narrow alley like a ray of black light.

"Sister Yuqing!"

Xing suddenly felt something was wrong, and regardless of the other residents' attempts to stop him and the fire, he just chased after him.
