As the lotus lanterns drifted away, the orange-red flames disappeared.
After Wu Er withdrew his gaze, he felt a sense of relief in his chest.
Sure enough, doing childish things occasionally can feel quite pleasant.
Wu Er let out a soft breath and turned his gaze to Han Qingxiu beside him.
After all, this time he was nominally bringing his apprentice out for a trial, and although he kept teasing him, he still had to pay attention to his apprentice's condition.
"Well, Xiuer? What did you wish for?"
Wu Er asked.
At this moment, Han Qingxiu's gaze was still on the stream, her eyes fixed on the spot where the lotus lantern had disappeared.
Her expression froze, as if she was thinking about something.
"Hey, why are you spacing out?"
Wu Er called out and waved his hand in front of Han Qingxiu's eyes.
Han Qingxiu then came to his senses and looked at Wu Er, saying, "The lotus lantern has drifted away?"
Wu Er nodded and replied somewhat sarcastically, "Of course, otherwise how could it fly into the sky?"
Upon hearing this, Han Qingxiu looked at Xiaoxi again, "I was just spacing out."
"Staring blankly?" Wu Er pressed. "Why are you staring blankly? Can you stare blankly just by putting a lamp on?"
Han Qingxiu shook her head and said, "No, I feel like I've experienced this scene of releasing lotus lanterns before, and it happened recently, um... just in the last two days."
If this statement is unreasonable, Han Qingxiu has been traveling with Wu Er these past few days, so how could she have let any lotus flowers go unnoticed?
Suddenly, Han Qingxiu's eyes lit up, and she continued, "I remember now, I saw this scene in a well before, but the stream back then was much prettier than this one!"
Hearing this, I understand.
Wu Er patted his apprentice's head and said, "Perhaps you were spared in your past life. It seems you must have been a very happy person in your past life."
Han Qingxiu blushed again after being slapped by Wu Er. She then pushed Wu Er's hand away and took a few steps back.
"Perhaps... so it is."
After moving away to a distance, Han Qingxiu said softly.
"Guest, guest, is there anything else I can help you with?"
After the two finished releasing the lotus lanterns, the scarecrow began to ask questions again.
This time, Wu Er didn't make any other requests. Instead, he said, "That's all. Just take us to the exit. I'm leaving."
After viewing the reflection and placing a lotus lantern, the matter was considered closed, and it was time to leave.
When the scarecrow heard Wu Er say he was leaving, it first bent over in disappointment, then jumped up and down with joy.
"Come on, come with me!"
The scarecrow hopped and skipped away in one direction.
Wu Erben followed, but upon glancing up, he noticed that Han Qingxiu was looking at the stream again.
It seems that the lotus lantern evoked complex emotions in her; more accurately, it was the imagery of her past life that stirred up her feelings.
A past life is something that can only be encountered by chance.
It has little impact on this life, yet it tugs at the hearts of people in this world.
"Stop looking, we should go."
Wu Er rudely interrupted Han Qingxiu, who was lost in thought.
It is also necessary to interrupt.
Recalling past lives is a good thing, but one should not dwell on it too much, otherwise it is like putting shackles on oneself.
Han Qingxiu's daydreaming was interrupted again. She had been daydreaming many times today, and naturally, she had been interrupted many times as well.
The two then followed the scarecrow toward the so-called exit.
This exit can't really be called an exit, because this magical place doesn't have a real exit. You can only get out by exploiting a bug in a place where the laws of nature are weak.
Soon, the two were taken by the scarecrow to a place where the laws were weak.
Upon arriving at their destination, the scarecrow said to Wu Er, "Guest, see you next time! Remember to come visit!"
Wu Er replied with a smile, "Yes, I will. Perhaps when I get older, I will move here."
"Welcome! Welcome!" the scarecrow replied.
Next, Wu Er and Han Qingxiu said some farewell words to the scarecrow before heading out.
Having learned from the first experience, there's no need to resort to anything like the river flowing backwards or the sun never shining during the day.
This is because the Heavenly Dao's computational power is so great that it has no time to attend to this area.
Therefore, Wu Er didn't need to make any big moves; he silently divided up the Heavenly Dao's computing power.
"They're gone."
Wu Er pulled Han Qingxiu back into that wondrous world.
Having learned from the first experience, the second time was also easy, and they quickly left Tianjing Township and returned to Qijiang River.
"Minor deity, welcome, immortal!"
As soon as they came out, they saw the river god of Qijiang.
It seems that he has already refined the opportunity given by Wu Er. I can feel that the cultivation of this River God has reached a new level, and his appearance is no longer that of an old man, but that of a middle-aged man, looking much younger than before.
As soon as Wu Er and Han Qingxiu came out, they stepped onto a large ship.
Well, not only have their cultivation level and appearance changed, but even the ship has changed.
"Yes, thank you for your hard work."
Facing Jiang Shen, Wu Er maintained his composure, so his tone was somewhat arrogant, completely different from his usual laziness.
Han Qingxiu didn't say anything; she had been quite silent the whole way.
Jiang Shen bowed and said, "Immortal, where do you wish to go? Please give your instructions."
Since they've taken the initiative to seek survival, Wu Er naturally can't just be polite.
"Well, this is the source, so let's walk to the end of the Qijiang River."
Walking from one end to the other and swimming the entire river is also a good idea.
Perhaps this is what they call having a beginning and an end?
