Chapter 71 Knowing the Past Life
This is a smoothly built cave, surrounded by small plants with a luminous white halo, covering the entire cave.
Among them was a pure black plant, which was currently blooming with black flowers and swaying automatically without wind.
The black-robed man sitting cross-legged on the white jade bed slowly opened his eyes. His pure black eyes were cold and emotionless, like a modern emotionless machine.
But after his gaze touched the black flower that was swaying happily, his eyes slowly warmed up and began to have warmth.
She stepped down from the white jade bed with her long legs, walked to the plant with black flowers, and squatted down.
"Be good and practice hard. If you slack off again, I won't give you any food."
The man's low and magnetic voice rang out in the cave, and the plant seemed to understand his words. As soon as he finished speaking, the leaves on both sides of it drooped down, and then carefully and flatteringly stretched out its fat and broad leaves, rubbing the back of the man's hand like a spoiled child.
When Chu Tingbai, who was floating in the air, saw this scene, a hint of tenderness appeared on his face.
The man squatting on the ground let out a low laugh when he saw this, reached out and touched its leaves lovingly, then emitted a lavender light from the tip of his finger and sent it to its petals, while the black flower desperately absorbed the energy he gave it.
It took a long time for the man to retract it, then he flicked its lush branches and leaves, stood up and walked out of the cave.
When Chu Tingbai saw him go out, he wanted to follow him out to take a look, but he found that he couldn't get out and couldn't leave the cave.
Unable to get out, he simply squatted in front of the black flower, wanting to touch its pure black, delicate and tempting petals, but his hand passed through the petals and could not touch it.
At that moment, his heart seemed to be tightly grasped by someone, and it felt stuffy and painful.
He clenched his fists, feeling somewhat bewildered, and stared at it blankly.

In the days that followed, he floated in the cave every day, watching the man and Heihua get along like this day after day.
It was not until later that he saw that the black flower's cultivation was growing rapidly under the man's feeding, and finally it cultivated into a human. After the transformation, its appearance was exactly the same as Qing Yanrou.
He saw the girl with the same face as Qing Yanrou and was a little dazed, then he found that her eyes were following the man in black.
He saw that her eyes were filled with emotion as she followed the man in black, pure, passionate and sincere.
But the man in black, as always, just treated her as his property. He did not treat her as an equal, nor did he respond to his passionate feelings in the same way.
He watched helplessly as an outsider, participating in all her likes, expectations, and despair.
His heart felt sour and painful.
The days passed one by one, and he was always by her side, watching her look at the man in black with shining eyes, and then the light in her eyes went out.
Later, when he saw her running out in a panic, his heart suddenly became panicked, as if the most important treasure was about to be lost. He wanted to break out of the cave and find her like crazy.
He crashed into the invisible barrier that was blocking him again and again, and his palms kept hitting the barrier.
There was no way out, and he saw out of the corner of his eye that a plant had grown again in the place where she had been.
He suddenly went over, tore off a leaf, and stuffed it into his mouth. When he rushed towards the cave entrance again, he was not stopped and got out in an instant.
There is a forest outside, with tall and lush green trees. The sunlight shines through the gaps between the leaves, and the mottled light and shadow are reflected on the fluffy mountain land. There are also various bird calls in the forest.
It was clearly a clear and pleasant sound, but to the anxious Chu Tingbai's ears, it just sounded like noise.
He followed his instinct and quickly floated forward. After about an hour, he finally arrived, but the scene he saw was exactly the scene he experienced every night, which was unforgettable.
He saw the man in black holding her helplessly less than twenty meters away from him. His eyes were no longer cold and ruthless, but filled with panic and anxiety. No matter how he sent his magic power to her, it was in vain. Her figure was dissipating and turning into stars floating in the world.
In the end, only a black seed was left lying in the man's white palm, and a crystal teardrop fell on it. The man held the seed carefully in front of his eyes with trembling hands, and held it tightly against his chest.
Chu Tingbai covered his heart and watched all this with a pale face. There was still a hint of the fragrance of flowers in the wind. He was very familiar with it. During this period of time, he often smelled it in the cave. It was a scent that belonged only to her.
Until her figure completely disappeared, and her unique scent finally spread between heaven and earth, the man kneeling on the ground always maintained the posture just now, like a sculpture, without even moving his expression.
As spring passed and autumn came, two figures, one in red and one in white, came hurriedly from afar, knelt respectfully before him, and presented him with a plant with blue flowers.
At this time, the black-clothed man's jet-black hair had turned pale. When he saw that thing, he finally came back to life.
He carefully took out the black seed and kissed it lovingly. Then he took out a porcelain bottle, pulled out the cork, poured a drop of liquid on the seed, and placed the seed on the blue pistil. He used his magic power to urge it to take root on the pistil.
When he saw a small, pure black bud growing from the pistil, he finally smiled and then fell to the ground.
Chu Tingbai just looked at the man in black. From then on, no matter where he went, he always carried the black plant growing on the pistil with him. However, no matter how he fed it energy, it never bloomed.
Finally, the man put the black plant back into the cave and settled it down, then jumped off the edge of reincarnation.
After seeing all this, Chu Tingbai completely understood that the man in black was his previous life, and Qing Yanrou's previous life was the black plant.
He lost that girl who was full of emotions, had sincere eyes and passionate feelings. Now that she no longer blooms, does it mean that she is unwilling to forgive him?
This time he still saw how his girl disappeared, almost the same as in the dream, except that there was a scene where he urged it to grow again and finally jumped off the cycle of reincarnation.
Chu Tingbai floated in front of the black plant and carefully reached out to touch her again.
But just as he touched it, he felt a slight pain on his fingertips, and a drop of bright red blood dripped onto the black plant. He felt dizzy, his soul shook twice, and then he closed his eyes and lost consciousness.
When he closed his eyes, he seemed to see the black plant shaking its fat and broad leaves happily a few times, just like when he first saw it.
