Chapter 465: Day of Celebration
On the roof of the tallest castle in the fairy tale town, the immortal-looking Yun Qingzi stood on a small platform connected to the tower. Wrinkles appeared on his face as he looked at this "town" built by the children's wild imagination with a smile.
There are all kinds of strange houses, kingdom soldiers patrolling the road as if they came out of storybook illustrations, Thunder Titans strolling leisurely outside the town, rose gardens filled with a mysterious atmosphere, and huge beanstalks rising from the distant hillside.
The king lay on his huge cat climbing frame, yawning lazily in the daylight. He looked up at Yu Sheng on the roof of the castle, raised his paw and waved it, then turned around and jumped into the shoebox-sized basket in the middle of the cat climbing frame.
The children had gone to class, and the town seemed much quieter. Yu Sheng came over to Yun Qingzi and asked casually, "What do you think of this place?"
"What a great place," Yun Qingzi said with an inexplicable sigh in her tone, "It's a blessing to be able to retreat to such a paradise-like place."
"I was worried you'd think those kids were too boisterous," Yu Sheng said casually. "They're actually pretty well-behaved, but most of them are still little kids after all, and after what happened with the 'Fairy Tale Curse'... I haven't set any rules for them here; I just want them to be more relaxed."
"Very good, very good," Yun Qingzi said softly, and then suddenly fell silent for two seconds, with a hint of nostalgia in his tone, "It reminds me of many years ago... It was really many years ago, when I was still in charge of a sect, and the children in the Enlightenment Hall were also like this. Back then, I loved children very much... It was really many years ago."
"Ah, old man, you used to be in charge of a sect?" Irene was a little surprised. "What sect? Do you want to go back and take a look?"
Yun Qingzi's eyes were a little blank, and after a moment he shook his head: "I don't remember, and I can't find it."
Noticing the puzzled expressions of Yu Sheng and Ai Lin, the old man sighed with a complicated expression and explained, "That was during the time when the universe was being reshaped. At that time, the Taixu Lingshu... was unstable, like a dream. Many things suddenly appeared and disappeared, even many people. Many people also had memory problems. Things they clearly remembered and people they knew became just a dream in the blink of an eye.
"It's the same with my sect... They seem to have existed, but it also seems like I'm just misremembering them. For so many years, reality and illusion have been mixed. Now I can't tell whether they were memories left over from the old world, a brief dream that existed after the reshaping of the universe, or even an illusion caused by the influence of the Evolving Star Body. I can't tell, so I won't try to tell."
This was the first time Yu Sheng had heard someone who had lived through such a long time, and even experienced the Second Singularity Explosion, personally recount the "experience" of the world being reshaped. The strange situation Yun Qingzi described left him stunned and curious: "...are other civilizations that experienced the Second Singularity Explosion like this? Were they also in this state when the world was first reshaped?"
"I'm not too sure about what's going on outside. Feiyu Star Region is different from other places. We've always been somewhat isolated in the early days," Yun Qingzi said slowly, but then frowned slightly and added, "But this isolation may also be because everything in Feiyu Star Region is a little 'special'. After all... the planet Taixu Lingshu didn't even exist in the original creation blueprint."
Listening to Yun Qingzi's words, Yu Sheng seemed to be lost in thought.
Will Baili Qing understand the situation in other civilizations?
After thinking about it for a while, Yu Sheng shook his head, wrote this matter down for the time being, and then brought up another matter.
"There's a celebration tomorrow at Taixu Lingshu to celebrate 'Angel Fall'. Do you want to show up?"
"No, to Taixu Lingshu, Yun Qingzi is already a dead man, so I'll just stay dead. If I run away at this time, it will only cause more trouble for many people." Yun Qingzi laughed. "When everything is settled in the future, I will go to Qianfeng Lingshan to pay my respects... Shuji is Qianfeng Lingshan's property. I have fought with the Yanxing Body over the years and saved many people, but I have also harmed many people. I will leave my specific merits and demerits to future generations to judge."
Yu Sheng raised his eyes, looked at Yun Qingzi seriously for a moment, and then nodded: "Okay."
…
The day of celebration has arrived.
The arrival of an angel made everyone in Taixu Lingshu break out in cold sweats. The "star guarding forces" around the world took off urgently, and countless Taoist ancestors who had been in seclusion for many years broke out of their barriers. The leaders and elders of various sects were even prepared to die in orbit. It can be said that even from the time when the heaven and earth were reshaped and the universe was recreated to the present, there have been only a few cases where Taixu Lingshu, the capital star, has entered such an emergency state.
But then an angel fell, and the catastrophe was averted silently - a star-eating creature bloomed outside the atmosphere, and stars fell like rain. The dark angel that countless mortal civilizations were unable to resist disappeared in front of hundreds of millions of people around the world. The capital planet was safe and sound, and countless people survived.
This deserves a global celebration, and even deserves a new festival to be set aside on Taixu Lingshu.
Irene was extremely excited from the moment she opened her eyes. She jumped up and down and circled around the house with a bad omen in her mind. Before Yu Sheng woke up, she lay on the edge of the bed and started nagging. One moment she was shouting that colorful lights were floating outside, the next moment she was shouting that there were flower boats flying in the sea of clouds, and the next moment she was shouting that people in the city at the foot of the mountain were setting off fireworks in broad daylight, and she wanted to go down quickly to take a look.
After realizing that Yu Sheng couldn't be woken up, she immediately rushed to the opposite room and casually said something like "There's a celebration today and there's lots of delicious food in the city at the foot of the mountain" to fool Hu Li. Then, the fox and four puppets lay down beside Yu Sheng's bed and started to howl and chatter...
Yu Sheng was having a peaceful dream. He dreamed that he was in the kitchen making soup. Halfway through, he heard the pot on the stove start talking. Then the vegetables on the chopping board started talking, and the spatula hanging on the wall also started talking...
In fact, he couldn't wake up if he just dreamed about these things. After all, he had experienced so many strange things in the real world that he wouldn't be surprised even if the food in the pot really talked to him. He could even argue with the food without batting an eyelid and win the argument. But when he dreamed that the pot jumped up from the stove and bit him, he really couldn't hold it in anymore...
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw four Irenes hanging in a row, biting their arms, like salted fish hanging under the eaves, neatly arranged beside the bed.
Hu Li squatted at the end of the bed, supporting himself with his hands, and looked at him with drool, like a Samoyed that had been hungry for three days - the kind that couldn't even drool anymore.
"Why are you guys going to do this? The celebration lasts for three days. What can we expect to see if we go down the mountain so early on the first day?" Yu Sheng reluctantly got up, washed up, changed his clothes, and walked downstairs while muttering to the puppet and fox following him, "Look at how steady Luna is. Just stand guard at the stairs..."
Irene sat on Yu Sheng's shoulders, a star of bad omen floating around her head, and crossed her arms. "Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, you forgot about the time when the C-shaped buckle was going to be used to modify your arm, didn't you?"
Yu Sheng shook his shoulders, and the little doll screamed and quickly hugged his head: "Yu Sheng, you are going to die! I almost fell down!"
Yu Sheng was happy.
He pushed open the door of No. 66 Wutong Road.
A familiar golden color came into view.
There is also a group of doll-headed people carrying small water bottles and wearing small yellow hats.
"Everyone, check your belongings. Did you bring your water bottles? Also, your wristbands and school bags. When we're going down the mountain, stay with the group. Don't run around on your own. Tell your older siblings before you need to use the restroom."
Yu Sheng immediately saw Rapunzel, who was maintaining order and checking the equipment of a group of little kids, with Snow White and the Dragon Slayer helping. Little Red Riding Hood was standing further away, staring at the whole scene. A dozen shadow wolves controlled by her were circling among the doll heads, sniffing the scent of each child, and then squatting at the feet of a child.
As soon as Yu Sheng showed up, Rapunzel happily came up to him, "Hey, brothers! You guys are going out to play too!"
"I was planning to sleep until noon, but Irene and Hu Li woke me up," Yu Sheng said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. He turned to Little Red Riding Hood who was walking towards him, "What are you doing..."
"There will definitely be a lot of people outside today. I'm afraid the children will get lost, so I'll just give each of them a wolf," Little Red Riding Hood said with a faint smile, "This way, they can serve as a protection if something happens."
Yu Sheng glanced at the dozen or so human cubs, who averaged only five or six years old. Seeing that next to each cub's head was a shadow wolf that was taller than a human when standing up, his mouth twitched. "...Well, your trip out is like a preschool study tour for the Beast Taming Sect..."
Having said that, he thought for a moment and waved his hand.
More than a dozen space cracks appeared out of thin air on the cloud viewing platform, and then a dead-eyed Irene "drilled" out of each space crack.
"And give each little one a mass-produced puppet. This way, they'll look not only like beast tamers but also weapon refiners, to confuse the locals..."
little Red Riding Hood:"……?"
As they were talking, several rays of light suddenly flew in from the distant mountains. Yu Sheng raised his eyes and his face suddenly changed. "Oh no! They must be here to drag me to their hall to give a speech! Quick, quick, quick! Let's go!"
As he spoke, he had already opened a gate that led directly to the foot of the mountain, and urged a group of children, big and small, to run into the gate. Little Red Riding Hood wanted to say something else, but before she could open her mouth, she was pushed into the gate by Yu Sheng. Then Yu Sheng also ran into the gate with Hu Li, Irene and Luna as if they were escaping.
The rosy glow fell on the ground and transformed into several figures, led by Xuan Che.
Following him were several junior brothers and sisters.
"...Big Brother, you were still here just now?"
Xuan Che looked around and saw Zheng Zhi slowly pushing the door and walking out from a small room not far away. He stretched and then stared at him.
The next second, Xuan Che stepped forward and said, "Brother Zheng, it's you!"
Zheng Zhi was startled and stepped back: "Wait, what are you doing?"
"Please, in your capacity as the welcoming angel of the inn, come and tell the five sect leaders about Mr. Yu's great power—"
"Wait a minute! I don't understand what you are talking about... How can I do this! My internship period hasn't ended yet, and I haven't been officially hired yet! Brother Yu, save me, Brother Yu, save me——"
