I was stunned when the girl took out a piece of paper with two words written on it: "white light", but the word white light was missing a little bit.

My eyes shrank suddenly: it was a secret that even my grandmother didn't know except for me and my grandfather.

When I was at the beginning of the lantern worship, on the spiritual seat of the ancestor Chen Baideng, the word lamp was a little less. That bit looks like the tablet has fallen off its vermilion paint over time. In fact, the person who set up the spiritual position back then deliberately underwrote a stroke. He said: If there are fewer lamps, it means that no one lights the lamp, and when someone lights the lamp, it can make up for that point.

My grandfather told me that the person who set up the spiritual position was Chen Baideng himself. As for why he left such a sentence, even the ancestors of the Chen family don't remember.

It seems that it is not that the ancestor of the Chen family has forgotten the ancestral teachings left by Chen Baideng, but that he himself deliberately hid a clue.

The girl continued: "Do you remember anything? Wait for yourself to light it yourself. ”

When I frowned slightly, the girl threw the paper into the pot: "You said that when I see you again, you must throw this paper into the pot, this is your last thought, and when he is gone, you will forget everything." ”

I said in a deep voice, "After Chen Baideng left, he never came back?"

"You want to ask, how many times have you been reincarnated, right?" the girl said, "I don't know, you have been reincarnated several times. All I know is that you left me behind to wait for you to come and give you one last chance to preach. I asked you, when will you come back, and you only told me that it was the time for the Destiny to move again?"

"I've waited for you for countless years, and I want you back, but I don't want you to come back. You're back, and that's when we'll never see each other again. I remember everything you said, so I'm waiting for you. ”

I was silent for a moment and said, "You go on!"

The girl continued: "When I met you, we were like two people who needed each other, arranged by fate to be together......"

The girl talked a lot to me, but I thought she was more like she was recounting her own memories.

She said it for a long time, and I listened to it for a long time.

I knew she had a lot to say and a lot to say, but she stopped: "Finally, one day, you told me that you were going to leave and complete your mission. I know I can't stop you, let alone stop you. Just when I was about to send you away, you told me that I might have to cultivate the Ruthless Dao. ”

"You tell me that you don't want to preach, and you don't want to forget everything that happened between us. But you still put me here to wait for you, and you tell me two results, and when you appear again, if you can call out my name, it means that you didn't preach. If you forget who I am, then you have attained enlightenment, but you have not yet reached the last step of enlightenment. ”

"You prepared two bowls of Meng Po soup for us. One bowl for you, one bowl for me. If you want to take the last step of enlightenment, let me share a bowl of Meng Po soup with you, so that we can forget each other and enter samsara. ”

"You're here. You can drink the Meng Po soup you left back then. ”

The girl looked at the soup pot in front of her as she spoke, and a tear also dripped from her hood, and I didn't wait for the tear to fall into the pot, so I reached out and took the tear in the air in my palm: "Keep your memory! ”

"But you ......" the girl was about to say something more, but I interrupted the other party: "I am not suitable to inherit the Hall of Mourning, and you don't have to think about making me forget my feelings anymore." ”

The girl lifted her hood, revealing Qin Yanqing's face behind her: "Why do you stubbornly insist on those feelings? Like your ancestor Chen Baideng, isn't it good to forget those feelings? He left the Hall of Martyrdom to the descendants of the Chen family, just to let you inherit the ruthless Dao!"

I said in a deep voice, "You mean, the Hall of Mourning was deliberately left to me by the ancestors, and it was left in the East?"

Qin Yanqing smiled: "You are wrong, you are Chen Baideng." The Hall of Mourning is something you leave for yourself. There was the last white lamp in the hall of mourning, as well as a memory of Chen Baideng himself. If you don't come, there will never be an heir to the Hall of Mourning. ”

"The seventeen magic halls in Huaxia are just the targets left by Chen Bailan to compete for. Only the Hall of Mourning is the true head of the Eighteen Palaces. In the legend of the Eighteen Palaces, the reason for deliberately weakening the Hall of Mourning is here. ”

Qin Yanqing pointed to the soup pot in front of him and said, "This is the Meng Po soup you left for yourself, drink it! All the long-cherished wishes and regrets you left behind back then will be gone, and everything will start over again. Your mission will be accomplished. ”

"You've been mentioning your mission all along, what is Chen Baideng's mission?" I still don't think the other party's words can be trusted.

Qin Yanqing smiled: "I have already said it, I am just a guardian envoy. Waiting for your return according to your orders, and giving you what you needed back then. For the rest, I don't know anything. ”

When I looked at Qin Yanqing silently, the other party said again: "Before you left, you once said that if you are unwilling to forget your feelings, you will not be allowed to leave the Palace of Mourning. You say, the person who knows you best is still yourself. You will only choose to forget when you have no other choice. Everything I have prepared is according to your will. Think about it!"

"I really should think about it!" I said in a deep voice, "You let me go back first." ”

"No!" Qin Yan said: "Once your consciousness returns to the essence, it will be swayed by meaningless things, and it would be better for you to stay here and think about it carefully." ”

My eyes couldn't help but narrow slightly: What does Qin Yanqing mean by not letting me return to my body?

Qin Yanqing seemed to see my thoughts: "If you don't let you go back, you're actually forcing you to forget your feelings." You forget, everyone around you will survive, it's just that you won't cross paths again. You don't forget, they will all die. In that case, you will be in endless pain, and even if no one forces you, you will choose to take the initiative to forget your feelings. ”

My voice sank suddenly: "This is also Chen Baideng's arrangement?"

"It's your own arrangement!" Qin Yan said affectionately: "You yourself said that for the sake of the mission, sometimes you have to pay a certain price. This is also a helpless move. ”

"I see!" I closed my eyes as I spoke.

From Qin Yanqing's point of view, I have already fallen into the battle between heaven and man, and I am in a dilemma between choice. Actually, I'm waiting for the circle.

It should be Jing Yuan's intention to meet Qin Yanqing, and now that I am trapped by the other party, the only person who can get me out of trouble is Jing Yuan.
