Chapter 153: Memories of the past, the eternal dream! (4k)
A water-blue star is just ahead, beautiful and crystal clear, like a blue diamond dotted in the starry sky.
Shaohua stood outside the area, looking down quietly.
The primitive Earth was actually very large. In the eyes of ordinary people, it might just be a star like a blue diamond.
But in her eyes, this is a star covered with Taoist patterns and interwoven with endless runes. It is by no means as small as it appears on the surface, but vast and boundless, even larger than the Big Dipper.
Countless large formations cover this place, overlapping and densely packed together. There are towering mountains over ten thousand feet high everywhere, rising into the vast sky.
Even the Great Sage can only sense it and barely realize that something is wrong, but it is impossible for him to see through the root cause.
However, this could not deceive Shaohua's eyes, as some of the large formations were repaired and arranged by her personally.
Time flies, and she has been in this world for 280,000 years. Looking back, what has she lost and what has she gained?
In previous lives, I had often come here, but mostly I just went in and out of Kunlun Mountain.
He had also walked on this star once, came out of Hangu Pass, repaired the ancient starry road, and sent his incarnation to dig out the Lord of Dao and Virtue and complete the Nine Secrets.
After that, he seldom came here. The last time it was the Emperor who came and took away Wu Shi and his old father, leaving only the green tripod in Kunlun.
From beginning to end, she rarely actually observed and changed this ancient star.
It's not just because she knows there's a big guy hidden here, but also because this place means a lot to her, and she has many concerns and thoughts.
It’s so similar, exactly the same as the mother planet in the previous life.
"Earth?" She narrowed her eyes slightly, her look a little dazed.
"You brought me here just to sigh for yourself?" A cold voice interrupted Shaohua's thoughts, and the ruthless man said expressionlessly.
Just now, this guy suddenly broke into the ancient forbidden land with his Taoist fruit that was wandering in the world, and then dragged the two of them here.
"You should be very familiar with this place." Shaohua came back to his senses and turned sideways to say to her.
The ruthless man was silent. How could she not know this place?
But this place is the most sad place for me. I have never come back since I came here once.
"I need an explanation." The ruthless woman frowned. If there wasn't some friendship between the two of them, she would have taken action now.
Her brother died here, which violated some kind of taboo for her.
"Let's go and worship that person first. I know you miss him very much, and so does my little girl. Now that we are here, we should go and visit him." Shaohua bent down and gently picked up the little guy.
The two looked at each other for a long time, but ultimately did not argue and stepped into Kunlun Mountain side by side.
The majestic Kunlun is so majestic and vast that it spans the whole world and dominates the eight wastelands. It is boundless.
The huge mountains are like sleeping dragons, lying across the earth with a magnificent appearance. They are the ancestors of all veins and the roots of all mountains. The terrain has reached the extreme that this world can allow.
"The imperial formation has come to life." The ruthless person narrowed her eyes slightly and shot out two sharp immortal rays that directly penetrated the Kunlun formation. She has always been so straightforward.
"I have lived here for a long time, which has endowed it with more spirituality." Shaohua shook his head, waved his sleeves, and quickly repaired the formation.
The two came to a cliff, where they could see a blood-stained shirt. It was still immortal after all this time and was floating on the cliff. Next to it stood a monument, shining brightly.
On the blood-stained shirt, a line of words could be vaguely seen, short and hasty: "I am going to die, but what about my sister?"
The ruthless man's footsteps became much heavier, and even the little girl in Shaohua's arms was stunned and couldn't help sobbing.
In the past, a ruthless man was so heartbroken that he raised his head to the sky and groaned, causing eight of the nine moons in the sky to fall.
Her long black hair fluttered in the wind and her face was covered with tear marks. She caused the heaven and earth to collapse, and she also cut off the stars and refined them into a monument.
The ruthless man became obsessed with this, but if she were given a choice, she would definitely rather give up her amazing skills and go back to that time to be with her brother.
To her, the so-called glory of the emperor is far inferior to the childhood time mixed with happiness and bitterness. Even if she is invincible in heaven and earth, she cannot restore everything of the past.
She stood here quietly for a long time, and then continued to move forward. Seeing this, Shaohua quickly withdrew the formation. In this state, this ruthless person would not care about other things at all, and anything that stood in his way would be crushed.
Further ahead, another small star field emerged, dazzling and brilliant. It was also her work, used to protect the few traces left by her brother.
"I'm going to die, who can help me take care of my sister?"
"God's blood, demon's blood, and Buddha's blood have all been poured on it. It will be my turn soon. It doesn't matter if I die, but who can help me take care of my sister? She is still too young, so I can't worry about it."
"Oh" Shaohua sighed softly and hugged the little guy in his arms who was about to faint from crying.
This friendship is so sincere and touching.
Once upon a time, Shao Hua was ready to follow suit and let Wu Shi also feel the sorrow and grief of losing relatives and friends. But in the end, she softened her heart when she saw him crying.
Only the most sincere emotions can unleash the most powerful force, this is true for ruthless people and for those in ancient times.
What's cheating? She can't treat her own brother like that!
Because, that was not only a test of Wu Shi's feelings towards her relatives, but also a test and torture for herself. She couldn't bear it, so how could she let a child endure it?
Now seeing this scene, Shaohua is very glad that he did not do that.
"Why did you bring me here?" After a long time, the ruthless man finally calmed down and returned to his usual indifference, questioning Shaohua by the Chengxian Pool.
If she is not given a reason that satisfies her, she will not let it go easily.
"Do you believe in reincarnation and the afterlife?" Shaohua asked back.
"What exactly do you want to say?" Upon hearing this, the ruthless man raised his eyebrows and his aura almost solidified.
"In the afterlife, if you believe in it, it exists; if you don't, it doesn't. As time goes by, two similar flowers will appear in the world. Looking back over thousands of years, one flower withers and the other blooms."
Shao Hua looked at the beautiful woman in white before him and continued, "Thousands of years later, a similar flower will be born on this star."
"Really?!" The ruthless man's eyes were scorching.
"It's just a similar flower. It's hard to say whether it belongs to the same person." Shaohua shook his head.
The ruthless man fell silent, tears glistening in his eyes.
"I will wait, not to become an immortal, but just to wait for his return in this mortal world." Her tone was firm, as if she was making a vow.
“If you can reach the supreme realm, nothing will be an obstacle and all the regrets of the past can be made up for.” Shaohua opened his mouth and finally couldn’t help but say.
"That day will come, but before that, I want to see that similar flower. I hope you are not lying to me."
The ruthless man looked like he was going to kill me if I cheated him, and Shaohua had no doubt about it. The two left Kunlun, and the ruthless man threw his Dao fruit Xiaonannan on the ground, and sat on the moon waiting.
She pushed open the long-sealed Moon Palace, which was the remains left behind by Shaohua's incarnation, and she took it over without any hesitation.
Shaohua went all the way east and climbed up Mount Tai, where he cast spells and formed seals, evolving supreme magical powers in an attempt to trace back to the source.
With a loud bang, the whole world seemed to be overturned, piercing through one figure after another, from the ancient times to the prehistoric times, going back to the end of the mythological era, and finally forcefully breaking into another era.
Those were the turbulent times.
Mount Tai at that time was not what it is now. It was too majestic. Compared with it, the sun, moon and stars were very small. It was suspended in the universe and no longer above any star.
Then, she saw a man standing on the top of Mount Tai. His aura was beyond words. He cut Mount Tai in half, and the most magnificent part flew into the sky and turned into the Burial Island.
"Emperor Huang Tian!" Shao Hua sighed. This was just tracing back to the past, not really crossing the long river of time and returning to the past.
She felt in her heart that there would definitely be a day in the future when she would meet the unrivaled Emperor Huang Tian.
Of course, it is also possible that I can go upstream along the long river of time and see the chaotic ancient times in advance.
The ruthless man on the moon was startled and looked down. Seeing it was Shaohua, he snorted and stopped watching.
The ruthless man knew very well that she brought him here just for the sake of convenience, and obviously she had something else to do.
Not long after, Shaohua found little girl again, but she was not as cruel as someone else.
Such a cute and well-behaved little girl is so lovable.
But three years later, little Nannan suddenly turned into a rainbow light and disappeared, leaving Shaohua gritting her teeth.
"Hennan, you've gone too far!" She pointed to the sky.
The only response she got was a faint snort.
"You are waiting for someone here, and I also want to witness with my own eyes the changes in the eternity of time, the old memories, and the eternal dream." Shaohua sighed and walked alone among the mountains and rivers.
The so-called eternal dream means that in a deep sleep, one experiences hundreds or tens of thousands of lifetimes in a dream, refines the mind and the Tao in the long river of time, and transcends the mundane world.
This is a theoretical path, which is extremely dangerous. Just imagine, who would dare to live in a dream all his life?
It is too scary to do this, and it is very easy to get yourself trapped. No one is willing to try it, and there is no idea whether they can return to reality and make a comeback against the odds.
A ruthless person had once walked a similar path. He met his brother in a dream, which caused his original spirit to almost dissipate. He was in a daze and almost did not come back.
Shaohua now also wants to "dream forever", but it is very different from that. She will not fall into a deep sleep. What she wants to dream about is not the reincarnation of thousands of lives, but the old memories of the previous life.
Dreaming of the hometown
Perhaps it was the turn of events from decline to prosperity, the essence of the earth, after more than 100,000 years of decline, suddenly burst out as if it had hit bottom and rebounded.
Of course, it also takes a lot of time for Kunlun Mountain to give back to the earth.
In addition, the universe gradually began to recover, and a pure land for practice was created in an instant. Many geniuses emerged and the world became extremely prosperous.
In order to keep history on the "right track", she also asked Hengyu and Xukong to cut out two blank incarnations and bring them back, transforming them into Shennong and Huangdi.
Shaohua has always liked to change things and make them develop in a better direction, but this time he hopes for fewer changes and is still pushing and maintaining it in secret.
This is not because of the worry about destroying a certain Emperor Ye Tian, but because they want to take a look at the eternity of this similar yet different Earth.
She has changed enough, this is really not a big deal.
There are also other buried emperor bodies that are reviving and participating in this life. Compared to Beidou, this is the real emperor burial star.
Shaohua witnessed and participated in this historical process. She even transformed into the Lady of the Nine Heavens and descended upon the earth. She also walked on the earth and was called Donghuang Taiyi.
She had seen Rong Chengshi and Chisongzi fight against powerful enemies from outside the region who wanted to find Kunlun Mountain; she had also seen Yanhuang and Chiyou fighting for supremacy.
Rong Cheng got some opportunities in Kunlun Mountain, and later defeated the Lord of the Divine Court in the depths of the starry sky. The Vermillion Bird was grabbed by Shao Hua.
There was a good archer named Dayi. His arrows shot down nine golden crows, which attracted an old golden crow at the quasi-emperor level. Then there was another bird at Shaohua's feet.
She helped Dayu control floods, witnessed the Hundred Schools of Thought in the Spring and Autumn Period, and walked through the ancient Xia, Shang, and Zhou dynasties, the Spring and Autumn Period, the Warring States Period, the Qin and Han dynasties, the Three Kingdoms, the Jin Dynasty, the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the Sui, Tang, Five Dynasties, the Song, Yuan, and Ming dynasties.
The long flow of history is like a rolling river, sweeping away countless past events.
“Thousands of years later, with the sound of zither and Chinese harp in harmony and the melodious music of stringed instruments, who will still remember those ancient legends?” Shaohua closed the book and looked out the window.
This seemingly real earth is ultimately just a memory of the past.
"How can this not be an eternal dream?" She laughed and took off her intellectual silver-rimmed glasses.
She walked into the courtyard, slightly raised her slender, snow-white neck, bathing in the gentle sunlight, and a sound as if some kind of shackles were breaking free came from her body.
There was no earth-shattering movement, nor any complicated visions, but just an ordinary and ordinary moment, when a breakthrough came under the warm spring sun.
Everything just happened naturally.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?" A cute little girl ran out, as if she sensed something, and asked with her little face raised.
This was naturally the result of someone who was nicknamed "Hard-hearted Girl" by Shao Hua.
Finally, she found it back.
Of course, it is more likely that someone ruthless did it on purpose. After all, her next door is a family named Ye.
"It's okay, go next door and play with your brother Ye Fan." Shao Hua pinched the little girl's face, curled up her red lips, and smiled even more happily.
Well, Ye Fan next door is still a little kid now.
The ages are right, the brother and sister are reunited, and the main theme is perfection.
Anyway, she felt that someone on the moon was also happy now, otherwise how could he tolerate her behavior of raising a daughter.
After all, according to her age, she should call Henren her sister.
"Sister Shaohua, I want to continue listening to stories today!" Not long after, the naughty kid from next door came running over.
"I'm in a good mood today, so I'll tell you the story of Dayi shooting down the sun." Shaohua would certainly not let the child down. He reached out, picked up a white cat, and told the story leisurely.
From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the birdcage hanging under the eaves, in which there was a black crow collapsed, despairing of life.
Well, she also raised a big red rooster in her yard. It crowed on time every morning and liked to peck people. It was the lifelong enemy of the kids next door.
"Are there really gods in the world?" After listening to the story, Ye Fan asked with longing.
Shao Hua reached out and knocked on his head, and said nonsense in a serious tone: "Silly boy, there are no gods in this world. We must believe in science!"

(Sorry, sorry, I wanted to write more, but something happened at home today. My grandfather cut his hand while cutting vegetables and it bled a lot. I was very upset and sad for a while.)
