Chapter 87 What’s wrong with me spending my whole life looking for him?

It was already evening when Xiao Mo returned to the palace.

Not long ago, Yan Shanao had a chat with Xiao Mo.

The ceremony of crowning the queen was postponed to four months later.

The reason was that Elder Huang of the Wanjian Sect arrived a few days late, so he missed the auspicious day the day before yesterday.

The next good day is only four months away.

Although delaying it for four months was indeed a bit of a hassle, Yan Shanao and Empress Dowager Yan were eager to send the women of their clan to Xiao Mo's bedroom immediately.

But they dared not neglect a ceremony like this one to crown the queen.

Auspicious days contribute to harmonious marriages, prosperous offspring, and the stability of the country.

So even if they have to wait, they have to wait for a good day.

Xiao Mo didn't care about this. It made no difference to him whether they got married or not.

And it’s better to get married later.

Otherwise, he would have to spend time with the queen.

Even if Yan Ruxue became the head of the harem, she could still follow him with good reason.

Your every move may be monitored by the other party.

After bathing in Qingquan Palace, Xiao Mo returned to his bedroom and immediately entered the Book of Hundred Worlds.

The third life of the Hundred Worlds Book (the second life of "Bai Ruxue's Life") has not yet been completed. Will the host enter the long river of time and watch what happens after the host's death as an observer?

"yes."

Xiao Mo did not hesitate at all. He turned into an observer again and stepped into the long river of time in the Book of Hundred Worlds.

When he arrived at Shiqiao Village, Xiao Mo stood outside the courtyard, watching the woman in the yard cleaning it.

Her hair turned silver-white, and she exuded an extremely strong dragon aura.

But there was no life in her golden eyes.

It was as if the woman's heart was about to die, with only a fragile thread holding it in place.

"well"

Xiao Mo sighed softly.

How could he not know the reason?

But as an observer, he could do nothing but watch quietly, hoping that time could dilute the mark he left in her heart.

"It seems your internal injuries have healed."

Fu Chen came to the courtyard and looked quietly at the white-haired woman in front of him.

"Um."

Bai Ruxue nodded.

The woman's beautiful face revealed a coldness like ice and snow.

The girl who used to love to laugh seemed like she hadn't laughed for a long time.

"Is this your last day here?" Fu Chen noticed the bundle on the table.

Bai Ruxue raised her head and looked at the courtyard where she had lived for a long time: "My injury has healed, it's time to go. He is waiting for me."

"Like snow."

Whisk sighed.

"Before he left this courtyard, he told me that after his death, he hoped to be buried under the rocks on the path south of Sheshan. Although Xiao Mo disappeared into the North Sea, the human race values ​​​​resting in peace in the ground. Let's bury his clothes there."

Bai Ruxue acted as if she hadn't heard Fu Chen's words and shouted to Xiaoqing, "Xiaoqing, it's time to set off."

"Okay, sister."

Xiaoqing, who had been eavesdropping on the conversation between her master and sister in the room, responded, opened the door and walked out.

Bai Ruxue walked past Fu Chen and said, "Master Fu Chen, only the dead need to be buried. Xiao Mo is not dead!"

The woman's long silver hair was lifted by the breeze, gently ruffling the whisk's shoulders.

When Fu Chen turned around, Bai Ruxue and her sister had disappeared into the horizon.

Over the next few years, Bai Ruxue and Xiaoqing searched for Xiao Mo's reincarnation.

Bai Ruxue took her sister to travel all over the country of Qi.

In most prefectures and counties of Qi State, especially on some dikes and along rivers, there are usually ancestral halls for Xiao Mo.

Whenever Bai Rushue saw the statue of the scholar in blue robes in the ancestral hall, she would stand there for a long time.

"Old man, why are most of Prime Minister Xiao's ancestral halls located by the water?" Xiao Qing once asked an old man who came to pay homage.

"The little girl is from another place."

The old man smiled.

"Prime Minister Xiao, during his lifetime, built water conservancy projects and dredged rivers. He saved countless lives and created fertile fields. Wherever Prime Minister Xiao is, no matter how big the flood is, there is no need to worry.

So, the prime minister’s ancestral temple was built here to suppress the river disaster and protect us.

Let me tell you something that ordinary people don’t know.”

The old man grinned, revealing his yellow teeth: "When I was a child, there was a flood and Prime Minister Xiao came to help with the disaster relief. I was lucky enough to meet Prime Minister Xiao and even talk to him.

I asked Prime Minister Xiao - Grandpa, why don't you come here to suffer like other masters who lie in their mansions and eat delicacies from land and sea?

Guess what Prime Minister Xiao said?"

The old man's eyes were full of memories.

"Prime Minister Xiao said that he was not used to eating delicacies from the mountains and the sea, and that the coarse rice and wild vegetables from his hometown were better. He also said that dredging the river and building water conservancy projects were for the benefit of the people of the world, as well as for his own selfish reasons.

I asked again - Grandpa Xiao, what is your selfish motive?

The old prime minister said—his motive was selfish, and it was for a woman he loved.”

After the old man finished speaking, Xiaoqing glanced at her sister.

Bai Ruxue didn't say much, but just looked deeply at the statue of the scholar holding a scroll.

I don’t know how many years have passed.

Bai Ruxue left Qi and went to other human kingdoms to look for Xiao Mo's reincarnation.

She climbed over snow-capped mountains, crossed deserts, and walked across plains.

At the same time, Bai Ruxue was also collecting techniques that could locate the reincarnated person.

Several times, these spells actually had an effect.

But every time, when Bai Rushue ran towards the place where the magic guided her with joy, the person she saw was not him.

During his travels, Bai Rushue also practiced medicine and helped to exorcise demons.

Once, there was a great epidemic in Pingchang County of Wei State. Bai Ruxue stayed there for three years just to treat the people.

Xiaoqing watched her sister busying around.

She found out.

My sister seems to be gradually becoming like Brother Xiao.

A thousand years passed like this.

Bai Ruxue entered the realm of immortals.

In the North Sea, Bai Rushue built a Dragon Palace.

Many people think that it is normal for a demon king in the immortal realm to establish the Dragon Palace and expand his power.

But Xiaoqing knew that her sister built the Dragon Palace so that more people could help her find Brother Xiao.

Another hundred years passed.

On this day, a letter arrived from Tianxuanmen.

Inside was a formation diagram that Fu Chen gave to Bai Rushue.

The formation is called "Three Lives Formation" and was found by Fu Chen in a desolate land.

After this formation is established, if Xiao Mo is reincarnated, he may be able to sense his location.

However, building this formation requires too many rare and precious materials.

But Bai Ruxue is not afraid.

It took another seven hundred years for Bai Ruxue to complete the formation.

But the formation still did not respond.

All Xiaoqing could see was her sister sitting in the formation every day, waiting quietly.

"Sister." Xiaoqing came over that day.

"Xiaoqing, what's wrong?" Bai Ruxue raised her head and looked at her sister.

Xiaoqing clenched her fists tightly, looking very hesitant, but finally, Xiaoqing mustered up the courage and said, "Sister, forget it."

Bai Ruxue tilted her head: "What do you mean?"

"Sister, don't look for Brother Xiao anymore." Xiao Qing pressed her small hand tightly against her chest. "Sister, you have been looking for him for 2,300 years. If Brother Xiao could be reincarnated, he would have been reincarnated long ago. After 2,300 years, Brother Xiao's soul might have already..."

In the end, Xiaoqing didn't say it out loud.

She lowered her head, looking very depressed.

She also missed Brother Xiao very much.

But after so many years, there is no hope anymore.

She didn't want to see her sister look like this for the rest of her life.

Listening to her sister's words, Bai Ruxue hugged her knees and looked up at the Three Lives Formation floating above the Dragon Palace: "Xiaoqing, I know your feelings, but I can feel that Xiao Mo is not 'dead', his soul is still there..."

"But sister, even if Brother Xiao's spirit is still there, how can we find him in this vast sea of ​​people?" Xiao Qing raised her head and looked directly into her sister's eyes. "Sister, you've been searching for over two thousand years. Do you think I have to spend my whole life looking for Brother Xiao?"

Xiaoqing's voice echoed in the palace.

As Xiaoqing's voice fell, the palace fell into silence again.

The Three Lives Formation was still operating above the palace. Below the formation were spirit pillars, and in the center of the spirit pillars was a spirit gathering formation, which together maintained the Three Lives Formation.

After a long time, the corners of the woman's mouth curled up slightly.

Looking at her sister's smile, Xiaoqing was stunned.

This was the first time she had seen her sister smile in over two thousand three hundred years.

"Xiaoqing, he has waited for me all his life."

The elder sister stood up, walked to her younger sister, gently stroked her younger sister's cheek, and her gentle words were like the spring sun shining on the sea.

"Then why not spend my whole life looking for him?"
