"No, I didn't lie to you!" Hong Yi caught up with Jiang Lu and explained, "That's because a patriarchal society needs men to be the dominant force. According to secular views, a person who made outstanding contributions in the Conferred Gods War cannot be a woman. That's why I was changed into an old man with a white beard in the myths that have been passed down."
"I agree with what you said." Jiang Lu felt that what she said made a lot of sense, and her quotations from classics were well-founded and convincing.
But he couldn't just believe Hong Yi's one-sided statement.
He looked at Dong Wang Gong, the man who claimed to have often drunk with Taiyi Zhenren after the Battle of the Gods.
"really?"
"Really?" Dong Wanggong nodded: "Didn't I tell you?"
Jiang Lu was a little embarrassed: "You just said that you often drank with her, and I subconsciously thought it was a man..."
"You see, this is because patriarchy has been deeply rooted in your heart. You believe that alcoholics can only be men." Hong Yi sighed.
Jiang Lu scratched his head: "It's true."
Hong Yi patted his shoulder and said, "We women are not necessarily easy to deal with."
Jiang Lu suddenly realized something, as if he had been enlightened.
But he suddenly thought of something, shook his head violently, and then continued walking towards the cliff stubbornly.
"Why?!" Hong Yi was puzzled.
After saying so much, he still can't let it go?
"But... you are right about one thing..."
Standing on the edge of the cliff, Jiang Lu slowly raised his head and looked up at the distant sky that was tinged with golden light and was extremely warm after the thunderclouds dissipated.
"I can't guarantee that everyone was a woman in their previous life."
"so much..."
"Some faces have even become very pale..."
"ha..."
"There will always be, right?"
Jiang Lu turned around and took one last look at everyone:
"My sins can no longer be washed away. Goodbye..."
"and many more!"
Hong Yi once again exerted his strength and asked seriously:
"You can't prove that they were women in their previous lives, but how can you prove that they were men in their previous lives?"
"The base number is too large, there will always be some." Jiang Lu shook his head regretfully.
"But what if I say... there isn't one?"
"No...it's impossible?" Although Jiang Lu said it was impossible, there was obvious expectation in his eyes. He hoped that Hong Yi could produce enough evidence to convince him.
"I have awakened all the memories of my past life. No one knows my past life better than me."
Not disappointing his hopes, Hong Yi raised the corner of his mouth slightly:
"So, I can confirm that your ginger...doesn't smell like a man!!"
"Wha...what?!"
Jiang Lu's eyes widened.
The power of reincarnation from the previous life actually has such a magical effect? !
Wait, doesn't this mean...
"Am I really that lucky?" He showed a pitiful expression like a child who had just performed a talent show in front of his parents, as if he was very eager for affirmation.
"That's right!" Hong Yi nodded: "I was also confused at first, but now I think I understand..."
"What did you figure out?"
"You only have feelings for women! This is your gift, but also your curse!"
"call!"
Jiang Lu let out a long sigh and felt more relaxed than ever before.
Xuannv, who was standing by, was completely immersed in it. She covered her chest with her hands, and was as shy as a young girl who had just fallen in love: "I... I was also a woman in my previous life..."
"Where did you get your past life from?" Dong Wanggong looked disgusted, then thought of something: "Wait, what do you mean?"
"So, do you have any questions?" Hong Yi had a compassionate smile on his face.
"No more... No more doubt..."
Jiang Lu slowly slid down to his knees, lowered his head and supported himself with his hands:
"My mind is clear and I have no more doubts..."
"That's good."
"coach..."
Jiang Lu raised his head, and before he knew it, his eyes were already filled with tears:
"I want Superman!!"
......
"Are you feeling better now?" Hong Yi asked with concern.
"Yeah, better." Jiang Lu nodded.
The Queen Mother of the West finally couldn't stand it anymore: "We are discussing how to deal with Yuanshi Tianzun now, right? Can you get off her legs?!"
Jiang Lu sat on Hong Yi's legs, lying in her arms, burying his head in her chest like a willful child: "I don't want it!"
Dong Wanggong tugged at Xi Wangmu's sleeve and said, "Sister, I just came back to life and my emotions are not stable. Don't be so fierce."
"Yes, Master, it's not easy for him either." Xuannv said.
Scythe and the performer also nodded, but this was all they could do. They really couldn't speak for Jiang Lu against their conscience.
"What about me? I survived a life-or-death calamity. Is it easy for me?"
It seemed that the Queen Mother of the West was really angry.
Jiang Lu then got off Hong Yi, came in front of Queen Mother of the West, and pointed at the tear marks on his face that had not yet completely dried.
"what?"
"Let me give you a taste." Jiang Lu blinked his eyes innocently: "Hong Yi said this is lotus root powder, very sweet."
"I don't..."
The Queen Mother of the West was about to refuse arrogantly, but when she saw Hong Yi's smiling face, she felt that she could not show her weakness.
"alright."
So the Queen Mother of the West pretended to be reluctant, gently touched it with the tip of her tongue, dipped some and brought it back to her mouth.
Then, with a blushing face, she savored the sweetness on the tip of her tongue.
"How is it, sweet?" Jiang Lu asked gently.
"Um..."
Dong Wanggong laughed foolishly and said, "Let me have a taste too."
Jiang Lu turned to him and said, "Fuck you."
"It's not you..."
The Queen Mother of the West held down the impulsive King of the East and said, "He has just been resurrected and his emotions are not stable. Don't be so fierce."
"?"
"Okay, now we can talk about Yuanshi Tianzun's affairs."
Jiang Lu sat back on Hong Yi's lap and began to analyze and summarize with a serious face:
"It is now known that he was the one who caused the failure of the first fusion, because Queen Mother of the West and Jin Yao did not have a telepathic connection at the time, and they did not use the magic circle he developed based on Hong Yi.
As for the magic circle, he had already found a way to let the Queen Mother of the West discover it countless years ago, and made her believe that it was something researched by some powerful person she didn't know.
Hong Yi was his method of trial and error, and through that failure, he came to the conclusion that in order to successfully transcend the tribulation, the person undergoing the tribulation must have a strong obsession.
So he planned the chaos of pornography, gambling and drugs, intending to subtly make the Queen Mother of the West regard protecting the Three Pure Realms as her obsession and successfully survive the true immortal calamity.
Although in the end her obsession and motivation became me, haha, I’m a little embarrassed to say it.
Well, in short, all his plans have been successful so far, and all the scripts are proceeding as he planned.
It is worth mentioning that the first trial and error with Hong Yi as the protagonist had been planned long before the Battle of the Gods. Even in his plan, the Battle of the Gods was probably part of the preparation for this plan.
In other words, in his eyes, finding the 'door' is more important than the Conferred Gods War. Based on my understanding of him, I can reasonably infer a conclusion -
The clues we have about him now are all those he let us know on purpose, and everything we know may be the key he uses to guide our next move.
So the way we thought of to break the impasse was exactly the path he had set in advance for us to take.
I'm not pessimistic, but in my opinion, even if we put all of our strength together, we can't beat him."
Jiang Lu has already given up: "So I think it's okay to order."
Dong Wanggong frowned: "Is this all you have analyzed? You are just talking about how invincible Yuanshi Tianzun is. Can you be more positive?"
"I want it too."
Jiang Lu shrugged:
"But we just got together temporarily to find a way to crack it. No matter how hard we try, it's impossible for us to break through the thousands of years of planning and hard work, right?
It is easy to understand if it happens in the mortal world. A person spends his entire life competing for the efforts of several generations of others. Do you really think everyone is Xiao Yan?
You may say that it doesn’t necessarily depend on ability, but who among us here can outwit Yuanshi? Not to mention that he is in the dark and we are in the light.”
"Not necessarily." Queen Mother Xi shook her head: "At least he hasn't appeared yet, which means his plan has not been fully realized. There must be some arrangements that are linked together. We don't need to overturn the whole thing. We only need to destroy one link, and there is still hope."
"Yes."
Hong Yi actually reached a consensus with the Queen Mother of the West, which was rare:
