Chapter 122: She is having a great time after breaking through
Xu Xingxing was lying on a chair in a courtyard in Riyao Mountain, basking in the sun, eating candied haws and feeling bored.
Yes, she was in a fantasy world again.
Nothing new.
At first she thought so with disdain.
She had been here for a year and still hadn't found a way out.
Yes, one year.
To be more precise, it is a difference of twenty-six days a year.
She had grown from a five-year-old kid to a six-year-old preschooler, but she still hadn't figured out how to break the formation.
As expected of the leader of the evil cultivators, he was able to survive by exploiting a bug at the hands of the demon god Zuo Yuan. His strength should not be underestimated.
She underestimated her enemy.
At first she consoled herself by thinking that she was at least somewhat experienced, but later she discovered in despair that her past experience was not very helpful but rather completely useless.
She seemed to be using the secrets to passing Tetris to play the 3A masterpiece Black Myth: Wukong.
Besides being stunned, everything went dark.
Even someone as optimistic as her could hardly bear it, but as time went by, the layers of her inability to bear it peeled off, and finally turned her into a little girl who loved to lie down but had a sad heart.
Oh, I’m so tired.
I don’t know what happened to Yuyuan.
She took a bite of the candied haws.
Oh, so sweet.
Damn, didn’t she dislike eating it before?
Take another bite.
Speechless and choked.
It's another day of missing Xiao Hei.
"You don't want to go to school so badly?" Chi Ruomian walked over and pinched her face. "Then let's go a month later."
Xu Xingxing glanced at her, then took a bite of the candied haws with a rather resentful look.
This person, whom she had only seen in the portrait in Xu Yi's study, was now standing before her vividly, his eyes gentle, his tone doting, every eyelash and hair extremely clear, the fragrance on his body was subtle and dense, it was the warmth from his fingertips, she had not yet forgotten the face that had just been pinched.
These traces and scenes made her sigh for the thousandth and one thousandth time:
The image quality of this illusion is simply too amazing.
The plants and trees of Kunlun, the appearance and voice of NPCs, the changing of the sun and moon, the passing of the four seasons, and even the people in the outside world, are all as real as they can be.
If she didn't still remember the scene of entering the formation, she would have thought that she had worn it again.
"I don't have any objections, but you should talk to the headmaster." Xu Yi's lazy voice came from the kitchen. "He has urged me eight times this year."
"The headmaster is too nosy. He even wants to control when the children start school?" Chi Ruomian grumbled in dissatisfaction.
"Have you forgotten? When Xing'er was full moon, the elder of Tianji Pavilion personally sent a message saying that this girl was gifted. Do you know how many sects the master secretly fended off? He was afraid that Xing'er would be snatched away by other sects if he was not careful." Xu Yi's voice was tinged with laughter. "She is worthy of being my child, Xu Yi. She is only six years old, but she has already shown the talent of a dragon and a phoenix."
"You are not ashamed to say this. Let's get through the Spiritual Transformation Realm first." Chi Ruomian raised his eyebrows slightly at Xu Xingxing, looking smug. "Xing'er should follow me more."
"Dragon and Phoenix Talent" took another bite of the candied haws and smiled perfunctorily.
Well, that's clear from this conversation.
If we put aside her original purpose of rushing to break through the illusion, here...
She was having a pretty good time.
Loving parents, free range, top academic foundation, and universities are competing for him.
Without the bloody battle against demons and the prophecy of a savior, Xu Yi would not force her to go to school to practice swordsmanship. Even he himself was a poor student with no ambition.
The couple has nothing to do all day long, either showing their love in front of her or bickering like elementary school kids.
Well, I take her on a trip occasionally.
Islands in the sea, lakes in the sand, strange mountains and rocks, and gorgeous red maples.
She saw many scenes in this illusion that she had never seen in her first half of life and in all the years since she traveled through time.
And successfully avoided the holidays.
Bah, what a bullshit holiday.
Her mind started to go haywire.
Thinking of Xiao Heiing.
In fact, for so long, she didn't find a way out, but she also discovered something.
For example, her taste changes.
For example, her numb mentality.
For example, she began to forget.
She still remembered how Hou Yuan carefully held her in his arms when the huge waves hit them before they entered the battle formation; she remembered that after the old man died, his body slowly sank into the water, and a young soul emerged from it; she remembered that hundreds of long, light-like tentacles slowly stretched out from the bottom of the lake, which rolled up and pulled several people down, and at the bottom of the lake, a light-like bloody mouth slowly opened towards them.
She remembered the way Hou Yuan looked at her, the beating of his heart in his chest, the temperature of his body. Before they were swallowed by the big mouth, Hou Yuan kissed her and said something in her ear.
But she forgot.
She knew clearly that she remembered it when she first arrived in the illusion.
That's why she dragged her four-year-old body to diligently learn sword-flying, and within half a year, she surpassed several teenage brothers. The first thing she did after achieving this was to fly up Taigu Mountain. Then, she seemed to search the mountain for a whole day, finally climbing to the top of the cliff and jumping down.
I don’t know if it was a bug in the illusion or she was really lucky, but she was hung halfway up the mountain. Although she lay there for half a year, she didn’t die.
However, since she woke up that time, she forgot what Yuan Yuan said.
She collapsed for a moment after she found out, but she didn't dare to act impulsively again. If she forgot everything, she would never be able to get out again.
Why did she go to Taigu Mountain?
What exactly is she looking for?
What did Yuyuan say to her?
She couldn't remember, she really couldn't remember.
Damn, my headache is starting to come again.
Oh, this illusion is really difficult.
Oh, the candied haws are so sweet.
Oh, it’s really a blessing here...
Oh, if only grandpa were here...
Hmm? Grandpa?
She started and sat up straight.
Why does she think of grandpa?
Because this year she was either flying a sword to death or lying in bed to heal her injuries, and she had no time to think about her grandfather.
When she was at a loss, the person she thought about most was Wei Yuan.
Because he saved her and always protected her in this world, so it was normal for her to miss him.
Why is it abnormal to miss grandpa?
It's not abnormal, but why would she think of her grandfather at this moment?
She couldn't figure it out, but she felt that this was very important.
"Dinner is ready!" Xu Yi's voice came from the kitchen.
"I'm coming!" Chi Ruomian replied and looked at Xu Xingxing, "Let's go get the dishes and chopsticks."
Xu Xingxing slowly stood up, finished the housework that a six-year-old child could do, and then sat down obediently and ate with chopsticks.
I have to say, Xu Yi’s cooking is delicious.
Xu Xing'er seemed to have only eaten it a few times.
Thinking of this, she paused again.
The weird feeling I just had when I thought of my grandfather came back again.
She seemed to have finally touched the edge of this illusion.
The so-called illusion arrays all seek to gain something from the person who enters them. For example, Shu Ji needs people to experience fear or other negative emotions.
But this formation is different.
It keeps giving.
So she felt uncomfortable and annoyed at first, and then collapsed and despaired, but she was soon warmed by the things in the team and began to compromise and play badly.
So her previous idea didn't work.
Why does Xu Yi here appear to be a loving father? Why didn't Chi Ruomian die? Why has the demon god Hou Yuan never appeared here?
Who wants this kind of life and this kind of world?
"Xing'er? Come and eat your favorite sweet and sour pork." As Chi Ruomian said this, a piece of sweet and sour pork appeared in her bowl.
Sweet and sour taste.
Xu Xinger's taste.
Her taste has always been spicy.
So, this world was not built for her.
It’s for Xu Xinger.
No wonder she thought of grandpa.
It was only because of the discomfort she felt while immersed in the happiness of others that forced her to miss the person she truly desired.
Fortunately, she is Xu Xinger.
If she entered this formation as Xu Xingxing, I can’t imagine how reluctant she would be to leave this illusion.
Therefore, this magic circle is to satisfy the wishes of those who enter the circle, allowing the souls with regrets to live a fulfilling life here, and then... then what?
It's not a good ending after all.
An idea popped into her mind, an idea that came so late that her hands began to tremble with excitement.
She took a deep breath and looked up at Xu Yi. Xu Yi looked back at her, slightly puzzled: "What's wrong? It's not tasty?"
Xu Xingxing put down his chopsticks and said seriously, "I've wanted to tell you this for a long time."
"What? You don't want to go to school?" Chi Ruomian teased.
Xu Xingxing looked at Chi Ruomian and said slowly: "I am not your daughter. My real name is Xu Xingxing."
The two of them suddenly froze, and something flashed across their eyes.
Xu Xingxing didn't see it clearly.
Xu Yi suddenly laughed: "Are you confused in your sleep?"
Xu Xingxing shook his head and continued, "The real Xu Xing'er is dead. Have you forgotten?"
Xu Yi's face finally froze: "You are lying to me."
"You've sensed it, haven't you? Why do I feel so out of tune with this illusion? Why do I have such a lukewarm reaction to this happy atmosphere?" Xu Xingxing raised her lips, emphasizing each word. "Because I'm not Xu Xing'er."
Xu Yi's face began to twitch, the kind of twitching and twitching that happened with a stuck machine.
Xu Xingxing continued: "This illusion is useless to me. I don't feel happy or fulfilled here, and you, Shi Chen, will never get my soul."
Xu Yi's neck suddenly tilted, and the smile in his eyes became stiff and strange. He opened his mouth but before he could speak, he reached across the table towards Xu Xingxing.
Xu Xingxing pushed the table aside and ran out.
The outside world began to become turbulent. Thick clouds gathered in the sky, swirling gloomily. Soon, even the ground began to shake.
She flew towards the Taikoo Mountains on her sword, with Xu Yi and Chi Ruomian following closely behind.
Soon, the rest of Kunlun's faces twisted like awakened NPCs, and they chased after her.
"Do you think you can escape? No one has ever escaped from this formation!" A skeleton appeared from the clouds and roared at her.
When everything was turning upside down for her, she finally remembered what Yuan had said.
“Stars, if you encounter an illusion, look for my traces. If you pass through there, you will find me.”
His traces, his traces, but the Taikoo Mountains won’t work!
She struggled to control the sword, not looking back at the collapsing world behind her and the countless wronged souls chasing after her.
“The things I love most are where I leave the most traces.”
Happy? What exactly is he happy about?
As she saw the Taikoo Mountains approaching, she suddenly heard the sound of waves.
The mountain range on one side of Taigu is close to the sea, and when you look down from the highest point of Taigu, you can see the endless sea.
Therefore, he is most happy...
White jade room?
Her heart trembled, and when she reacted, she was already flying towards the sea.
During the journey, she remembered more and more. It turned out that she had thought of it last time on Taigu Mountain, but her already wrong state reached its peak at that moment, accidentally triggering the correction mechanism in the formation.
So she was caught off guard and pushed down by an NPC who followed her by chance.
After flying for dozens of miles, she finally saw the familiar island.
Xu Yi was already a few meters behind her. She had no time to think and suddenly exerted force to fly towards the island.
Before she landed, the island suddenly opened up and turned into a volcano.
She closed her eyes and rushed towards the center of the volcano.
The scene in front of her suddenly became clear, and her body suddenly felt lighter. The environment around her changed several times before finally freezing. She finally escaped from that place.
And I get to see the person I miss so much.
But he, how... ?
