Chapter 154 Extra 4 Return to the Small World (End)
In the distance, a group of soldiers were walking towards this side.
They were dressed in mourning and looked sad, and in the middle of the march, four soldiers were carrying a pitch-black coffin.
As soon as these soldiers appeared, a great feeling of sadness spread among the crowd, and soft cries were heard from the crowd.
"General Gu..."
As the first cry was heard, calls of business started to rise one after another, like an endless wave.
"Goodbye, General Gu!"
"General Gu, please don't die..."
"General Gu, we miss you so much."
"Long live the general!"
The first person knelt down, and then more people knelt down. People cried and kowtowed to the coffin, throwing the white flowers in their hands onto the coffin.
This is the voice of the people. No one forced them, and no one called on them. They gathered here out of their own will to welcome the general who guarded their peace back home.
Jian Ziyan and Qin Wang stood at the back and no one noticed them.
Jian Ziyan's gaze was fixed on the coffin, his body trembling slightly.
"It turns out Wenshan is dead."
He seemed to be in another world.
The young general who misunderstood him at first because of his concealment, and later took him away from the imperial city in order to repay his kindness, regardless of the emperor's authority, and was determined to protect him at the cost of his own life, died in his prime.
As he wished, the emperor guarded the national border and the generals died for the country. Consultant Shan did not die in the struggle for imperial power because of his personal feelings. He died outside the national border and died in battle for millions of people.
When faced with the stories in his hands, Jian Ziyan can arrange a suitable ending for everyone.
But when the person he once lived with finally became a person in the story, he felt sad and almost wanted to walk forward to take a last look at the face in the coffin.
A hand wrapped around his waist, stopping him in time.
Jian Ziyan's eyes were still fixed on the coffin, and he whispered, "When I pulled him out of the pool of blood that year, I hadn't thought so far into the future. At that time, I just wanted to save his life."
"I know." Qin Wang's deep voice seemed to come from his chest, "This is not your script. He just made his own choice."
Jian Ziyan closed his eyes, a tear flowed from the corner of his eye and fell into the gentle breeze.
In the very end, Gu Shishan was conferred the title of Duke of Zhenguo and buried in the Gu family's ancestral tomb, thus completely burying a piece of past events belonging to the previous dynasty.
The two stayed here for a few days until they watched Consultant Shan being buried.
When everyone left, a man dressed in prime minister's clothes came and stood in front of the new tomb.
Jian Ziyan heard his soft and sad voice.
"General Gu, you can go with peace of mind. I will continue to uphold the Regent's belief and guard Dajing. I will never change my life."
Qin Wang hugged him tightly.
"Except for me, you have a good eye for selecting people," he said. "They have done what you expected, and they are happy to do it."
Jian Ziyan pulled the corner of his mouth in a half-smile: "You really spare no effort in blackening yourself."
"At that time, I was a remnant soul, and my soul state was extremely unstable. I don't avoid the mistakes I made, but they are indeed excusable. So this is not a problem of your vision, but my problem." Qin Wang gently covered his eyes, "Don't look, let's go."
…
The next world would not have such a big impact, because in this world, the people Jian Ziyan cared about had already died.
A familiar modern-style city appeared before his eyes, and a familiar piano sound reached his eardrums. Jian Ziyan tilted his head and saw that the video of the concert that year was playing on the big screen in the shopping mall next to him.
The elf-like white boy played the piano with mechanical prosthetic limbs, with a passion on his face that seemed to burn the soul.
"So this is how I look from an outsider's perspective." Jian Ziyan said after looking at me for a while.
"Yes, incomparable beauty." Qin Wang was also looking at the screen at the same time, "At that moment, the light of the whole world was focused on you. No one could help but fall in love with you."
Jian Ziyan laughed softly.
The world was peaceful, nothing major happened. Jian Ziyan flipped through his virtual phone as usual, and unsurprisingly found the news that the piano prince Yin Yao was found dead at home due to a drug overdose.
He sighed imperceptibly.
Then he put away his phone and said, "Let's go to my mother's grave."
Gu Feijun spent a short time with him, but still left a deep impression on him.
They didn't expect that there was someone who had arrived earlier at Gu Feijun's tomb.
Cheng An was the lawyer who was commissioned by Gu Feijun to bring the will and letters to Yin Yao.
The two did not go forward to disturb him. They watched the man in a suit and tie stand silently in front of the tomb for a long time. Then he gently stroked the photo on the tombstone with his fingers and turned away.
The moment he turned around, the silver dots in his hair were very eye-catching in the sunlight.
"The last time I saw him, he didn't have so much white hair." Qin Wang said in a low voice.
Jian Ziyan calmly withdrew his gaze.
"In this world, only kind people will feel sad because of their own powerlessness. Cheng An is a kind person. I don't blame him, and my mother won't blame him either."
The visit to this world soon ended, and the two set off again.
…
They were standing on a soft patch of ground.
The smell of soil mixed with crops rushed into Jian Ziyan's nostrils. He was slightly stunned and looked at the large field of crops.
Not far away, there were people farming, and further away, there were low houses standing there with no defense system.
"This is……"
"The location is correct. This is the apocalyptic world." Qin Wang lowered his head and looked at him. "After your vaccine was successful, it was put into use on a large scale. Thirty years after your death, all zombies and monsters were wiped out, and the apocalypse was officially declared over."
Jian Ziyan listened silently, then looked up again at this world that exuded a peaceful atmosphere.
"Let's look around," he said.
They are no longer ordinary people. They can travel thousands of miles with a thought. In just one day, they traveled all over the world.
The extreme climate disappeared, the cruel monsters disappeared, the crops thrived, and new cities were gradually built.
Just as Qin Wang said, the end of the world is over, and the world now is no different from any ordinary world.
And the people here finally lived an ordinary life.
When passing by the world's largest newly built city, Jian Ziyan discovered a statue made of white jade standing at the city gate. The cold and beautiful facial features were lifelike, which made him dazed for a moment.
"Xiao Yan, your sacrifice will not be forgotten." Qin Wang said in a gentle voice, "Look, everyone remembers you."
Jian Ziyan blinked his hot eyes and hummed softly.
When he left these worlds, he had not expected that he would be remembered forever or remembered by people. Now that he saw it for real, he had to admit that this feeling was very special.
It is thick, settled, sour, and a little soothing.
After walking a circle, the two figures disappeared silently.
…
This time the landing site was a noisy tavern.
The smell of malt wine filled the entire room. The sound of metal such as swords and chain mail colliding with the table made a harsh sound. Shouting, laughter, and talking were heard continuously.
This is the continent of Gods, and there are many races with strange costumes. The appearance of the two did not attract anyone's attention, only the boss behind the counter shouted in a hoarse voice.
"What kind of wine do you want?"
"This feeling is really nostalgic." Jian Ziyan looked around, "When I was traveling around the continent, I often went to the tavern to listen to the news."
"That's why I chose this place." Qin Wang asked for two glasses of wheat wine. The huge glasses were filled with white foam, which he directly dumped on the table. "Want to recall? To be honest, I haven't tasted the wine from this world yet."
"It's really hard for you
"He is a god who is high above us." Jian Ziyan laughed and said to him, holding up... or should I say, the wine glass.
For an Oriental man of normal build like him, he looks very slim compared to the wine glass.
Qin Wang also took a sip: "Hmm." He put it down again, "The brewing method is too primitive, the impurities and bitterness are not filtered out, and my throat hurts after taking a sip."
"Delicate." Jian Ziyan commented objectively.
The sounds from all around continued to reach their ears.
"So you're saying that Lady Hemera is really dead?"
Jian Ziyan paused holding the wine glass, and Qin Wang's eyebrows did not move.
"He must be dead. It's been so many years and the new god has even made a public appearance."
"But the birth of a new god doesn't mean that Lord Hemera is dead..."
"There's no escape. Ever since the death of the previous Elf King, Lord Hemera has been determined to die. Letting the elves reappear in the world is just His way of atonement for His past sins."
"Alas, it's such a pity for this couple. They could have become the most beautiful story in the entire continent, but they ended up being separated by death..."
"Hush, let's not talk too much about those adult matters. What if the new god gets unhappy and starts the Great Purge again?"
People who are still alive today call the struggle between the gods of light and darkness the Great Purge.
Jian Ziyan looked at Qin Wang with a complicated look: "You resurrected the elves?"
Qin Wang shook his head: "Even God cannot break the rules he set, otherwise I would never watch you die."
"That……"
"I just recreated the elves." Qin Wang smiled, "I owe you that."
Jian Ziyan lowered his eyes, and his fingers holding the wine glass trembled slightly.
"I'm sorry." Qin Wang looked at his fingers, his face pale, "No matter how many times I recall it, it is a sin that cannot be forgiven."
"Since it's in the past, don't mention it again." Jian Ziyan stretched out his hand and held his, deliberately using a teasing tone, "How come you start to speak in such a strange way as soon as you return to this world? I'm not used to it."
Qin Wang was stunned for a moment, then he immediately held Jian Ziyan's hand and said in a damp voice, "I understand."
At this time, the conversation in the tavern was still going on. After not mentioning the matter of gods, they turned to mention two other people that Jian Ziyan knew.
"I heard that Lord Havelot will come to our place for an inspection soon. Is this true?"
"It's true. A friend of mine's mother's distant cousin's nephew works at the temple. He said in person that Lord Havelot will be touring the continent in the near future. If there is any injustice or grievance, you can go to him!"
"Is it such a coincidence? I heard that the necromancer is also on his way recently. Judging from the direction, it seems that he is also heading to this place..."
"You mean Lady Aya Beatrice?"
"Who else could it be but her?"
"Hey, why are all these big shots running over here? Wait a minute, could it be..."
"Ah, did you remember? In three days, it will be the anniversary of the death of Elf King Jian..."
Jian Ziyan was stunned for a moment and asked, "Is this place close to Tuoyue Forest?"
Qin Wang nodded calmly: "This is the human town closest to Tuoyue Forest."
Jian Ziyan sighed.
No wonder.
Qin Wang always picked times and places where there were too many coincidences, making it impossible for him to pretend that he didn't know and that he didn't mean it.
"Since you are here, why not visit an old friend?" Qin Wang's dark eyes had a faint smile. "If I am not mistaken, our child will also come. Don't you want to see Him?"
"Our child?" Jian Ziyan was stunned. He finally reacted when he saw the cunning in Qin Wang's eyes. He was angry and amused. "Are you talking about the new god who was born according to your will?"
"And your will." Qin Wang corrected, "I will let Him recognize you as his father, so that He can protect the elves for you for generations to come."
Jian Ziyan raised his hand and covered his eyes.
“You really are…”
Qin Wang looked at him lovingly. He had not intended to tell Jian Ziyan about these things. If Jian Ziyan had not taken the initiative to ask to go back to these worlds to take a look, these things he had done would have become an eternal past and would never be mentioned again.
To him, what he had done was not enough to make up for the harm that Jian Ziyan had suffered. This was his atonement, not his attempt to seek credit.
After coming out of the tavern, the two men hid their figures and headed towards Toyue Forest.
The forest had long since burst into new life, with lush green trees stretching out and emitting an ancient hum in the wind.
Jian Ziyan saw the newly born elves and several elf cubs. They shuttled through the Touyue Forest, carrying sumptuous fruit plates, laughing and chatting, chasing each other, which made him a little dazed.
It was like the scene that his mother Evelyn had described countless times, and although she could no longer see it, he saw it again for her.
The elves are preparing for a grand sacrifice, and the people being sacrificed are the Elf King Jane and Hemera who are buried in the center of the World Tree.
Since their birth, this has been their most important festival of the year, even more important than the God's Day. The god, who is as young as them, not only has no objection to this, but also appears in person on this day every year to pay homage to their ancestors with them.
Three days passed quickly, and the dusty Havelot and Aya Beatrice came into Jian Ziyan's sight again.
Both of them seemed to have grown up a little, a maturity of mind and soul, which had nothing to do with appearance.
They were like a pair of long-lost friends who were close but not intimate.
Jian Ziyan looked at them with nostalgia and had no urge to go out and meet them.
It's enough to see that they are all living well.
Soon, as the time for the sacrifice approached, the newly born god finally arrived.
He appeared out of nowhere among the elves, with an exquisite and perfect appearance and no flaws compared to the elves, long black hair reaching his ankles, and his black eyes, which were like molten gold, were different from Hemera's indifference, but instead were filled with a hint of tenderness.
Because of Jane's will, this god possessed the best qualities of human nature, which was also done intentionally by Hemera.
"That's our child." Jian Ziyan deliberately joked, "He looks like me."
Indeed, the god's appearance was closer to Jane than to Hemera's.
"Because His personality is like yours, He chose to look like you." Qin Wang laughed softly, "I didn't get to see the scene of His birth, but I have to say that having a face like this makes me look much more pleasing to the eye."
Jian Ziyan rolled his eyes at him.
At this moment, the young god suddenly turned around and looked in the direction of the two people. His black and gold eyes blinked, revealing a little confusion and astonishment.
"He is about to discover us." Qin Wang said, "Do you want to finish your sacrifice?"
"No." Jian Ziyan took one last look at the elves and his old friends, "That's enough, let's go."
Just a second before the god pounced, the two figures disappeared.
The young god stood on the land where they had just stood, with confusion in his eyes.
Havelot asked respectfully, "Respected Lord Laval, is there anything wrong?"
"No." Laval said softly, but he looked back without giving up, muttering, "Just now... I seemed to see my fathers."
…
The two came to the next familiar world.
As soon as he entered this world, a certain power in Jian Ziyan's soul began to stir again. Just like in the main world, a pair of scarlet fox ears poofed out from his black hair.
Both of them focused their eyes on the pair of fox ears.
Jian Ziyan: ...
Qin Wang:!!!
Just as he was about to reach out to touch it, Jian Ziyan shook his head and the fox ears disappeared instantly.
Qin Wang's hand froze in mid-air, his face showing disappointment.
"Don't talk nonsense." Jian Ziyan said coldly, "Whatever you want to say, just shut up."
Qin Wang silently swallowed back what he was about to say.
The two looked at each other for a few seconds, and couldn't help but laugh at each other at the same time.
Jian Ziyan's face turned slightly red and he turned his head away.
Even if Qin Wang was itching to tease him, he couldn't tease him at this time, otherwise it would be difficult to see these ears again next time.
He glanced at Jian Ziyan's head with regret, but said seriously, "Well, actually, I came here for something I wanted to do."
Jian Ziyan asked casually: "What are you going to do?"
"After you died in this world, I kept your body in an ice coffin and gave it to Chu Yeshu before I went to seek retribution from the Heavenly Dao." Qin Wang also answered casually, "Although it's just a corpse, I still want to take it back."
"..." Jian Ziyan's expression was blank for a second, and he slowly turned his head to look at him, "Tell me, what did you do?"
"I put your body in an ice coffin..."
"The last sentence." This work is by
"Before I go to settle accounts with the Heavenly Dao..." Qin Wang tilted his head with an innocent expression, "Oh, I forgot you didn't know about this."
Jian Ziyan took a deep breath and suppressed the shock that was rising in his heart.
Seek settlement with heaven!
As Tai Sui Fei, no one knows the power represented by the Heavenly Dao better than him. He didn't expect that Lu Wufeng could actually overturn it!
No wonder Lu Wufeng was able to break through the void and find him, so that's how it is...
Jian Ziyan's forehead twitched a few times. Looking at Qin Wang's innocent and deliberately cute face, his anger suddenly subsided.
"This is really messed up," he said weakly.
Qin Wang raised the corners of his lips.
"Anyway, I succeeded. If I hadn't defeated Heaven, we wouldn't have had the chance to meet each other." He said as a matter of course, "This is simply the best decision I have ever made."
"Forget it." Jian Ziyan sighed, too tired to talk. "Let's go steal the coffin. Where do you think Chu Yeshu would put it, Xuanyun Palace?"
Qin Wang narrowed his eyes slightly: "I know where he will put it."
Xuanyun Palace, Lingzhao Peak.
This sacred peak has never had a new owner since its previous owner, the Windless Immortal Lord who was like a taboo in the Three Realms, left. The head of Xuanyun Palace, Chu Yeshu, sealed it up, but what no one knew was that an ice coffin was also sealed inside.
This restriction was nothing to the two of them. They sneaked into Lingzhao Peak and easily found the ice coffin.
Looking at the ruddy corpse in the ice coffin that looked like it was sleeping, Jian Ziyan got goose bumps all over his body.
"This feels weird," he muttered. "Put it away and get out of here."
Qin Wang did as he was told immediately.
They were about to leave when suddenly a voice sounded from behind them, trembling with disbelief.
"Brother, Senior Jian...? Is it you? Am I seeing things?"
The two paused and looked at each other at the same time.
Instead, they underestimated Chu Yeshu.
Qin Wang casually changed the appearance of the two people into what they should look like in this world, and then turned around naturally.
"Ye Shu." He said softly, "Long time no see."
Jian Ziyan also turned around. He looked at Chu Yeshu and smiled charmingly.
Chu Yeshu felt as if he had suffered a heavy blow.
He took two steps forward uncontrollably, then tried hard to control himself and got stuck one step away. Tears fell from his eyes which turned red in an instant. He stared intently at the two familiar faces in front of him, his voice choked with sobs.
"Did I really see it right?... I rushed here as soon as I noticed the restriction was passive... Are you really my senior brother and Senior Jian? Even if you are some evil spirit, I didn't expect to see you again..."
Jian Ziyan's eyes softened: "Chu Yeshu, you are not mistaken, Wufeng found a way to revive me, and now we are who we are."
Chu Yeshu's tears fell even harder, and he looked at Qin Wang for confirmation.
Qin Wang nodded slowly, just like the gentlemanly and upright Immortal Lord Wufeng: "That's right."
"Great, great..." Chu Yeshu showed an ecstatic look, and kept repeating this sentence, looking at them with hope, "Then, can you come back to Xuanyun Palace?"
The two looked at each other, and Qin Wang shook his head slowly and firmly.
Seeing Chu Yeshu suddenly anxious, Qin Wang said gently, "Yeshu, calm down. You are no longer the naive boy you were back then."
Chu Yeshu shook his head vigorously: "Brother, what is going on?"
"It is impossible to make a deceased person reappear in the Three Realms.
Now I am forcing the impossible to become possible, so I have made some trade-offs." Qin Wang said, "Ye Shu, this may be the last time the two of us can appear here. From now on, we will go to another world and it will be difficult for us to come back."
Chu Yeshu's eyes were red, and as Qin Wang explained, his expression calmed down a little.
After all, he is now the head of Xuanyun Palace and can be considered knowledgeable. After suppressing his initial emotions, his mind started to work.
Since forbidden techniques are used, it is understandable that a price has to be paid. Perhaps Senior Brother and Senior Jian will have to go to the underworld that has never appeared to spend the rest of their lives. This is also the exchange for Senior Brother forcibly resurrecting Senior Jian.
"I understand." Chu Yeshu looked at them earnestly, "Brother, Senior Jian, if this is your choice, I will always bless you."
Jian Ziyan didn't know what he was thinking about, but he knew it was definitely not a trivial matter, otherwise he wouldn't look at them with such shock and complexity, as if they were about to die immediately after being resurrected.
But he also knew that it was better not to explain now, so he smiled and nodded, pretending to be happy as he leaned towards Qin Wang.
Qin Wang took the opportunity to hug him and took one last look at Chu Yeshu.
"Ye Shu, take care."
As soon as the words fell, the two figures suddenly disappeared.
"Brother! Senior Jian!"
Chu Yeshu couldn't help but take a step forward, stretched out his hand but only grabbed a handful of air.
He clenched his fist to his chest and turned to look out the window.
"Wherever you are, I wish you happiness."
…
The last world the two traveled to was Penoma.
Penorma at this time was no longer called Penorma. After Felix purged the entire upper class with force and Lun took over, the country was renamed the Free Republic of Vituno.
When they first heard the name, Jian Ziyan and Qin Wang both fell into a subtle stagnation.
"...This Lun En has quite a lot of ideas." Jian Ziyan commented pertinently, "I didn't expect him to be so drastic as to change even the governing system."
"I really didn't expect it." Qin Wang rubbed his brows, "How should I put it, it was, quite sudden."
Lun En is really amazing, as he can leave President Qin speechless.
Jian Ziyan smiled for a while, looked at the people on the street whose spirits and spirits had obviously changed, and said, "Let's split up in this world. I'll go to see Jian Anyi, and you go back to the Sea Country."
Qin Wang looked over silently.
Jian Ziyan's expression was soft: "You must be thinking about them too, go check them out, we'll meet here tonight."
"Okay." Qin Wang said, "I'll wait for you here before the sun disappears."
Jian Ziyan nodded.
The reason for making this suggestion was not only to save time, but also as a training for Qin Wang.
Train Qin Wang to learn to trust him, even if he is out of his sight, he will eventually come back and will not abandon him again.
Qin Wang has never felt safe, and Jian Ziyan has seen it, but apart from fulfilling his promise himself, he has no other choice.
I hope Qin Wang can realize this this time.
Jian Ziyan smiled at Qin Wang, and then his figure disappeared first. The moment he disappeared, Qin Wang pounced on him almost out of control, with a terrified and pale look on his face.
He remained silent for three minutes before he suddenly came back to life, took a deep breath, and turned and left.
Jian Ziyan came to the Pirate King's residence.
It seems that Lunn has not taken action against the pirates yet, but the contact with the Pirate King has been made public. The pirates now know the wind direction and will no longer burn, kill, plunder and commit all kinds of atrocities as before. They have turned to fishing for a living.
Through the graceful gauze curtain, Jian Ziyan held his breath and saw a graceful shadowy figure.
Jian Anyi stood in front of the window, looking at the distant and vast sea.
She was dressed in plain white, even the hairpin on her head was white. Her plain outfit seemed out of place in such a place, yet she was unique in it.
Jian Ziyan felt relieved.
She is fine and still so beautiful.
He looked at her back, his eyes gradually softened, and the hatred and resentment in his heart for the young pirate who was ruthlessly eliminated by his mother as a rival also gradually calmed down.
After he died, she cared.
Just this made him very happy.
The child’s demands have always been this simple.
Jian Ziyan left quietly.
He went to see his boat and the people living on the island again.
Kelly is a very capable person. Although he always relied on Jian Ziyan out of habit when Jian Ziyan was around, after Jian Ziyan left, he really took up the responsibility and took good care of everyone.
Jian Ziyan did not show up. He just watched them quietly until the sun gradually set into the sea, casting a brilliant light on the earth.
He returned to the place where he had agreed to meet with Qin Wang, and found that the other party had indeed arrived, with a gloomy and anxious look on his face.
When he saw Jian Ziyan, Qin Wang's eyes froze for a moment, then he smiled broadly.
Jian Ziyan walked over and let the other person hold him in his arms.
"I said I would come back, and I won't break my promise." He said, "Qin Wang, do you understand now?"
"Got it." Qin Wang kissed the top of his head, "Are you sure you don't want to go to Cyberworld again?"
"No, that world cannot be changed overnight. Maybe I will go and see it many years later, but not now. Seeing it will only make me feel more powerless." Jian Ziyan closed his eyes tiredly, "Let's go home."
Qin Wang's eyes were gentle, as if he had heard the most wonderful love words in the world.
"Okay, let's go home."
