Seeing that he was becoming increasingly anxious, the clone could only begin to comfort him.
"It has nothing to do with whether he's stupid or not; it's just that the sudden change has left him somewhat bewildered."
Upon hearing this, Tiandao's brows furrowed even more deeply.
"I thought he was no longer the impulsive little beast he used to be, but I never imagined he hadn't changed at all."
The clone laughed as soon as he finished speaking.
"Impulsiveness is the nature of animals, and it can't be changed just like that. Besides, with Luo Luo and Wu Hua around, he'll just be in a bit of pain, he won't die."
The thought of the Houzang being blasted away by the barrier filled the Heavenly Dao with heartache.
"He's just a soft, cute little bunny, how could he possibly endure such pain?"
Clone...
Are you out of your mind?
"Huh? Why are you scolding me for no reason?"
The clone's eyes were practically rolling back.
"Although the Hou (a mythical beast) resembles a rabbit in appearance, their ferocity is worlds apart. Moreover, as ancient divine beasts, which one didn't survive through fierce battles? What's a little pain to them..."
Before he could finish speaking, the Heavenly Dao, with a hint of anger, waved its hand and took him back.
"A clone is just a clone; it has no emotions, it's all rationality, and it's not fun at all."
The zombie inside the barrier was unaware that the Heavenly Dao had referred to it as a little rabbit.
Otherwise, they will not stop until all their hair is pulled out.
After responding, he figured the Heavenly Dao must have understood his meaning, so he left without looking back.
I plan to go check on Pidan first to see when he will wake up, since only when he wakes up can this barrier be broken.
Meanwhile, aside from his constantly changing facial expression, Pidan remained completely still.
Qin Luo and Wu Hua were both worried for him.
"Son, do you think he's run into some kind of problem? His brows are all furrowed together."
"I guess so. It is said that the trial involves projecting the divine consciousness of the trial participants into an unknown small world, where they experience birth, aging, sickness, and death, as well as various major choices in life."
"What if he makes the wrong choice?"
"Once you make a mistake, you'll keep going back to the wrong point."
"Ah, if the preserved egg is inside, can it still retain memories of the outside world?"
"Uh... it's hard to say. It depends on the strength of his mind. But some people, even if they remember at first, will gradually forget it before long."
Why?
"Because during the trials, you will personally experience many unforgettable things, and your memories will be covered up layer by layer, and you will slowly forget where you came from."
After he finished speaking, Qin Luo couldn't help but become anxious.
"What if, in the end, Pidan doesn't complete the trial?"
Before she could even finish her question, the Houzang that had just arrived interrupted her with the answer.
"If he fails to complete the trial, this place will soon become barren, and no food can be grown here anymore. We will also be trapped here forever until our souls perish."
"What?"
After hearing what he said, Qin Luo was so excited that his old arms and legs almost jumped up.
"If we can't grow food, how can our souls remain trapped forever?"
Seeing that she was quite old but still bouncing around like a mischievous monkey, Wu Hua quickly stopped her.
"Don't be impatient. Pidan hasn't failed yet. Maybe he'll pass? Your anxiety now is just like what you said before, what was it again?"
"To be anxious about things that haven't happened yet is like eating shit in advance..."
"Yes, yes, that's it. You don't want to eat shit beforehand, do you?"
The two of them kept talking about shit, which made even the Hou Jiang feel nauseous.
"Isn't it said that the human world is the most particular about poetry, literature, and etiquette, and that even arguments are conducted in a very proper manner? How come you speak so blatantly?"
The two of them looked embarrassed after hearing this.
"Well, our Qin family isn't a wealthy or noble family; we're just ordinary farmers in the countryside. There aren't many educated people in the village, so we always pick up a few things from what we hear..."
"Yes, Lord of the Domain. When I fell into the apocalypse thousands of years after the human realm, the people there were even less restrained and could say the most offensive things without hesitation."
As soon as he finished speaking, Hou Jiang thought he was being blamed, so he quickly tried to explain.
"The situation was urgent at the time. Before I left, I set up a protective shield for you and contacted the Heavenly Dao to have it pick you up at the entrance to the human realm. I never imagined that in just a few breaths, you would fall into another dimension..."
Seeing how earnestly he explained, Wu Hua knew that he had misunderstood.
"Lord of the Domain, I don't blame you at all. On the contrary, I am very grateful. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have met Luo Luo."
"Yes, Lord of the Domain, it's all thanks to my son going to the apocalypse, otherwise I would have died long ago."
Seeing that the two spoke sincerely, Hou Jiang felt relieved.
"You two are bound together by a deep bond, so your meeting was inevitable. Even if it wasn't in this life, it would be in the next."
"Haha, this life is better."
"Yes, the sooner the better."
The two talked and laughed, staring intently at the old man and the young man before them.
The serene and composed scene seemed to bring a sense of peace to my own heart.
But things weren't so peaceful for the preserved egg during the trial.
He strolled home after leaving the spirit catcher recruitment event yesterday.
I thought I'd get a good night's sleep first, and then look for other work tomorrow.
But early this morning, he was approached by two people who claimed to be his parents.
She urged him to wash up, saying that they couldn't miss the wedding ceremony.
Pidan thought he was going to be someone's best man, but the woman who called herself his mother kept trying to put the wedding dress on him.
Pidan was completely dumbfounded. He was only ten years old. What kind of marriage could a ten-year-old be getting together?
But when the woman tied up his hair, and he saw himself in the bronze mirror, he was so frightened that he almost screamed.
