Three Realms 3
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Qingqu, dressed in fluttering white, appeared in front of Qin Yan. His eyebrows were cold and his eyes were like frost and snow. He looked at Qin Yan without a trace of warmth. He asked in a cold voice, "What do you want from me, young master?"
Even though Qin Yan had made sufficient preparations, even though they had been facing each other like this for hundreds of years, at this moment, looking at the same face, Qin Yan was still sad, but he concealed his emotions very well and said in a gentle voice: "I have no other reason to come here, I just want the memories of the God of War in the mortal world. No matter what conditions the God of War offers, I am willing to accept them."
Gu Qingqu replied: "I have sealed that memory. I'm sorry I can't agree to your request, young master."
Qin Yan was anxious after being rejected. "Since it is all sealed, it is of no use to you. Why can't you give it to me? It is very important to me."
Gu Qingqu looked at him coldly and said, "I don't know what use that memory is to you, young master, but since it's my memory, there's no reason for me to give it to anyone else."
Qin Yan said: "No, you must give it to me"
"Sorry, Master, if you have nothing else to say, please go back. I'm going to retreat." Gu Qingqu didn't look at him, but turned away indifferently. Qin Yan walked up to him, looked into his eyes and said word by word: "I said I want that memory, what do you want in exchange for giving it to me?"
Gu Qingqu said: "I won't give it to you"
"Why?"
Gu Qingqu said: "No, that's it. There's no reason. Please go back, young master."
"If you don't give me my memories, I won't go back." Qin Yan started to act like a spoiled child. Gu Qingqu said "whatever" and walked into the hall. Qin Yan followed him in. "If you don't give me my memories, I'll always follow you."
Gu Qingqu still said, "Whatever"
Gu Qingqu walked to the innermost room of the hall, sat cross-legged, and began to practice. Qin Yan sat down beside him, "God of War, you haven't survived the calamity in the mortal world yet, do you want to survive it again in the mortal world?"
Gu Qingqu didn't answer him, Qin Yan continued to persuade him: "It's very simple to pass the tribulation. There was an accident last time. I promise you can pass it this time."
No matter what Qin Yan said, Gu Qingqu remained unmoved. Qin Yan's mouth was dry. Looking at Gu Qingqu who was motionless with his eyes closed, he said, "Hey, stop pretending. There is no spiritual energy flowing around you. You haven't practiced at all. My mouth is dry. Go make me a pot of tea."
Gu Qingqu remained unmoved, so Qin Yan simply sat down beside him. The moment he sat down, Gu Qingqu stood up. Gu Qingqu skillfully made tea without calling Qin Yan, but Qin Yan consciously walked over and sat down, picked up the teacup and started drinking. Gu Qingqu looked at him with his usual indifferent tone, "After drinking the tea, please go back, young master."
Qin Yan looked up at him while drinking tea, was stunned for a moment and then nodded, "Okay"
Gu Qingqu lowered her eyes and stopped looking at him. Qin Yan finished his tea and stretched out his hand to Gu Qingqu, "Give me your memory."
Gu Qingqu raised his eyes to look at him, "No"
Qin Yan asked him, "Do you want me to go back empty-handed?"
Gu Qingqu asked back: "Didn't you come here empty-handed as well?"
Qin Yan was speechless after hearing this. He said, "Oh, well, I'll go back."
Qin Yan stood up and left. He followed the direction he came from and found Taoyuan. The fairies were still in the woods. When they saw him coming back, they greeted him warmly, "Young Master, are you done?"
Qin Yan replied: "Not yet, I want to pick two peaches, is that okay?"
The fairies replied: "The peaches are not ripe yet. Young Master, you have to wait another 130 years if you want to eat them."
"That can't wait"
After saying goodbye to the fairies, Qin Yan strolled around the heaven and walked to the Moon Palace. Qin Yan saw a white rabbit eating grass on the Moon Palace. The rabbit was covered with fluffy hair and looked soft. Qin Yan looked around but didn't see anyone. He thought it was a rabbit that no one wanted, so Qin Yan took the rabbit away.
When they arrived at the Temple of the God of War, Gu Qingqu was standing under a tree looking at the sun. Seeing Qin Yan coming back, he asked, "Young Master, is there anything else?"
Qin Yan handed him the rabbit in his arms and said, "Hey, I brought a gift this time."
Gu Qingqu looked at the rabbit hanging in the air and said, "This is the Moon Palace Master's rabbit."
"Oh," Qin Yan asked naturally, "Do you mean you don't want it?"
Gu Qingqu looked at him without saying anything, Qin Yan said: "It's not that I won't give it to you if you don't want it."
As they were talking, the Moon Palace Master came over. Qin Yan returned the rabbit to her. To express his gratitude, the Moon Palace Master gave him a plate of mooncakes, which Qin Yan accepted with a smile.
The Moon Palace Princess left, and Qin Yan ate mooncakes while saying, "This Moon Palace Princess is quite nice." Just as he said this, he felt something was wrong, and his teeth hit him. He quickly spit it out and saw a piece of sawdust. "What kind of wood is so hard?"
Gu Qingqu replied: "The laurel tree in the Moon Palace"
Qin Yan saw that Gu Qingqu had no intention of eating, so he asked, "Did you know this would happen?"
Gu Qingqu replied: "I don't know"
"Then how do you know it's the laurel tree?"
"There are only laurel trees in the Moon Palace"
"Oh," Qin Yan replied perfunctorily, and then suddenly asked seriously, "Can you really consider going to the human world to survive the disaster again?"
Gu Qingqu looked at him without saying anything, so Qin Yan pressed on, "You really don't want to consider it?"
Gu Qingqu replied firmly: "No. Consider it."
Alas, Qin Yan was very disappointed, but he was not discouraged. He stayed in the Temple of War God again and did his best to bother Gu Qingqu every day. He thought that when Gu Qingqu could no longer bear it, he would definitely strip off his memory and send him away.
But unexpectedly, things didn't go as planned. Qin Yan had lived there for almost half a month and he hadn't seen a trace of impatience on Gu Qingqu's face. They even had a tacit understanding that as soon as Qin Yan made a move, Gu Qingqu knew what he was going to say and was ready for it the next second, making it difficult for Qin Yan to find fault.
Just when Qin Yan was considering changing his tactics, a heavenly soldier came to report, "God of War, the aura of the Wood Spirit Pearl appeared on the banks of the Kuiwei River. Please make the decision, God of War."
One of the seven spirit beads that were born from nothingness when the world was first created during the chaotic period, but no one knew where they were scattered during the ancient war between heaven and earth. The spirit beads have great power, and the masters of all realms have been searching for them. Unexpectedly, they have appeared in the world now.
Gu Qingqu asked, "Has this matter been reported to the Emperor of Heaven?"
The heavenly soldier replied: "The Emperor is still in the demon world and has not returned yet."
Gu Qingqu said: "I understand, you can go down"
"yes"
The heavenly soldiers left, and Gu Qingqu looked at Qin Yan. Qin Yan smiled at him, and his meaning was very clear, but Gu Qingqu disagreed, "You go back."
"Give me your memory, I won't stay a second longer"
Gu Qingqu still said, "Impossible"
Qin Yan said: "Then I can only say it is impossible."
The two men could not reach an agreement, so Gu Qingqu stood up and left the Temple of War God, and Qin Yan followed closely behind him. He didn't know where the banks of the Kuiwei River were.
The two were moving very fast, and Gu Qingqu stopped in a moment. Qin Yan was unable to stop and bumped into Gu Qingqu's back, knocking him out. Qin Yan quickly grabbed him and said, "Sorry, I didn't expect it to be so close."
After staying in the human world for a long time, I always felt that the earth was very far away from each other. I didn’t expect to arrive here so soon.
"You are too impolite"
Gu Qingqu looked at him coldly without saying anything. Qin Yan smiled and asked, "Is it because you haven't survived the catastrophe that your cultivation has declined?"
Gu Qingqu didn't say anything, looking down at his feet. Qin Yan also looked over. The river called Kuiwei was actually a lake, but it was very large. On the bank of the so-called Kuiwei River was an endless bamboo forest, lush and green, with layers of bamboo leaves swaying in the wind, like the sparkling sea.
Although all bamboo forests are similar, Qin Yan couldn't help but think of the bamboo forest he saw in the human world. Subconsciously, he looked at Gu Qingqu beside him, as if everything was still the same as before.
Gu Qingqu noticed his gaze and swept his eyes towards Qin Yan. With just one look, he brought Qin Yan's thoughts back. In fact, everything had changed.
Suddenly, countless bamboo leaves shot towards the two of them from all directions. The two of them fought the enemy together, but it was obvious that Gu Qingqu wanted to separate from him. Qin Yan was entangled by the attack and couldn't get close. The next second, white mist rose up, and Qin Yan smelled a very faint fragrance, just like the fragrance that Gu Qingqu used before. He couldn't help but take two breaths, and suddenly the world spun around, and he fell from the sky into the bamboo forest. The bamboo leaves brushed against his body, as if Gu Qingqu was sleeping on his chest.
"Master" in a daze, he seemed to hear Gu Qingqu's voice, "I'm so scared"
Qin Yan woke up in an instant. When he opened his eyes, he saw Gu Qingqu looking at him anxiously, "Qin Yan, what's wrong with you?"
The worried expression and frightened eyes were exactly the same as Gu Qingqu's. Qin Yan's eyes widened suddenly and he grabbed his arm, making sure that it was not his delusion. "What is going on? Why are you here?"
Gu Qingqu shook his head, "I don't know either. I slept and woke up here. What is this place? It looks weird."
Qin Yan excitedly hugged him in his arms, "No matter where it is, it's a good place anyway."
Gu Qingqu rubbed his neck and shoulders as usual, and hugged him back, "Yes, as long as we are together, it's a good place."
After a long while, Qin Yan let him go. There were dense bamboo leaves above his head, but there were many fireflies in the forest that lit up the forest.
When Qin Yan stood up from the ground, he found that all the demonic power around him was imprisoned and he couldn't mobilize any demonic power. Gu Qingqu saw that he looked strange and asked, "What's wrong?"
Qin Yan didn't want him to worry, so he shook his head and said, "It's okay, I just fell down."
Gu Qingqu asked nervously: "Where did you fall?"
"It's okay, let's find a way out." Qin Yan held Gu Qingqu's hand tightly, and Gu Qingqu nodded obediently, "Okay."
There was darkness in front of his eyes, fireflies were flying, and the rustling sound of bamboo leaves was in his ears, but at this moment Qin Yan had no worries at all. His heart was filled with the satisfaction of regaining what he had lost. He turned his head to look at Gu Qingqu beside him. Fireflies fell on his shoulders and flickered, which was comparable to all the beautiful scenery Qin Yan had ever seen.
As they walked, they suddenly saw a bamboo house in front of them. It looked exactly like the Cui brothers' house. Gu Qingqu was surprised and said happily, "There is actually a house here. Let's go in and take a look."
"I'll go knock on the door, you wait here for me"
"Um"
