Chapter 54: Dreams Return to the Temple in the Heart

The dust has settled for the time being, but Qi Wuwei's heart is still not calm, and the pre-set plan and route have been completely broken by the sudden situation. In the rush about the evil calamity, he had never been so confused for a moment. As if he had seen what was on his mind, the royal robed guest said that he wanted to take the statue home, so that it would not be exposed to the sun and the wind and rain, and directed him to a certain place outside the city, where he preached and built a temple for his father, and told Qi Wuwei to go there and have a look.

Where did the Imperial Robe Guest come from? Where did he learn his skills? What is the intention of acting so strangely? Qi Wuwei saw it now, the Imperial Robe Guest seemed to have the intention to pour out his heart, as long as he sent a message to ask, he would definitely get a reliable answer, not only many of his previous concerns could be relieved, but also expected to get a strong boost.

But Qi Wuwei didn't ask the royal robe guest more, he just hastily resigned from the royal robe guest and went to find the temple. The imperial robe looked at Qi Wuwei's back, turned around and sighed softly, as soon as his steps moved, the Lian father and son also appeared and left with him. The two of them are facing opposite directions, but they don't know if they can go the same way in their hearts.

......

I kept thinking about it in my heart, as if I had tied the grief and hatred to Qi Wuwei's spine and mixed it in front of Qi Wuwei's feet. The mind disturbed the true qi, and the chaotic collision in the body made it difficult for the superior physique of the Lingliu clan to bear. Every ten steps, the complexion on Qi Wuwei's face became more ugly, and every hundred steps, he had to vomit out a mouthful of red and blackened blood. He stumbled and lost his soul all the way, until it was completely dark, and he could not find the temple that the royal robes were directing.

The moon was hidden in the layers of overlapping clouds, not revealing a trace of light, I don't know how long I groped in the dark in such pain, suddenly the sky swirled, Qi Wuwei suddenly felt relaxed, and in the haze, he only felt that he had reached the destination, he gently closed his eyes that were open and useless, looking forward to the next morning without cold and pain.

"Are you 'sleepy' or 'confused'?"

An abrupt but not unfamiliar voice woke him up again, Qi Wuwei opened his eyes, and what he saw in front of him, the faint light reflected the familiar lamp, standing on the stone table that had not been seen for a long time, and the darkness and nothingness around him were unchanged.

"Bright Lantern Prince!" Qi Wuwei was shocked in his heart, when he had not transformed into a Lingliu Clan, he clashed with the ghost path cultivator and narrowly lost his life, and with his current identity, meeting the Bright Lantern Boy again was tantamount to going directly to see the King of Hades. Thinking of the "lamp" of the bright lantern boy should not be simple, and its object is now within reach, in order to prevent conflict with him, Qi Wuwei wants to strike first, and pounce to snatch his lamp.

However, Qi Wuwei just grabbed the lamp, but saw the light flickering strangely a few times, and a small hand stretched out from the lamp and gently pressed it on Qi Wuwei's hand. The lantern boy in front of him stood up and sighed, "If I had come a few days earlier, you might not have suffered so much because of confusion!"

Although he had never met so frankly before, seeing each other at this moment, Qi Wuwei still threw away all hostility and guard, he thought in his heart that he should have done this a long time ago, and now he would rather give up his hand to ask for advice than pretend to be profound.

The figure seemed to feel the warmth of Qi Wuwei's gaze, sighed and said: "My last regret is that you have suffered these torments in vain! I really shouldn't have appeared in front of you, nor did I point you in, nor did I deceive you; I was afraid that you would see through me at a glance, and I was afraid that you would not be aware of my existence at all." The figure became even darker again, as if there was some kind of connection, and the light of the bright lantern boy was also a little weaker, "But I still can't help but go to you, to see you." Because if there is anyone else in this world who has done earth-shaking things, but will not be remembered by the people of the world, you are the only one. ”

"It" has a slender and gentle voice, like a precocious girl, which is far from the "person" in Qi Wuwei's impression, but Qi Wuwei has no doubts, he stabilized his thoughts, and said in a deep voice: "You are really accurate! Even my life and death catastrophe was resolved because of you!"

"It" was silent, as if it didn't know what Qi Wuwei was talking about. But this reaction is not what Qi Wuwei wants to see, "That same fate spell can't deceive me, you should know that even if there is no matter of the Lingliu clan, my physique is different from that of ordinary people, so after you desperately lifted it, watching you fall and die, I didn't realize it later." ”

"Oh, it's not fair!" the female voice sighed, "you have seen through me, but I have no chance to explore your past." ”

"How long is there?" Qi Wuwei asked eagerly.

The woman's voice replied unhurriedly, "What?"

Qi Wuwei said excitedly: "How long can I keep you with the magic of the bright lantern boy?" I have been born for more than 20 years, which is not a long time, and I don't need to wait until dawn to finish talking to you!"

"Twenty years?" the female voice chuckled softly, "You have met all kinds of unfathomable people along the way, they may be able to bear the burden of humiliation and plan a hundred-year plan, a thousand-year cause, or even a thousand-year responsibility, but compared to what you really have to carry, the ones in front can only be regarded as careful thoughts that children can't hide." That's what I want to see, not your twenty years or so. ”

Qi Wuwei was silent, and for the person in front of him, he was in awe of his understanding, and friendship sprouted from grace. Although the resentment and resentment have just been dissipated by the appearance of this person, but due to the limitations of his own ability, he seems to have left some regrets.

The darkness around him seemed to have changed little, but there was a faint melancholy aura, because the owner of the dream was suffering from the torment of his soul, and the breath was scattered and filled the whole dream, conveying the master's thoughts to the guests who did not belong to the dream.

"Am I ...... What do you already know, to remind you how hateful I am?" the female voice said lightly.

Qi Wuwei still didn't speak, but the sad atmosphere around him had more firm emotions in it, and he couldn't help whether he opened his mouth or not, he had betrayed his thoughts, and the piety in his heart could not be shaken.

"Do you remember Qi Zhen? The black-eyed spirit fox that you gave you the name of. The female voice suddenly asked, Qi Wuwei didn't think about it for a while, and the female voice continued: "She concluded the same fate spell with the calamity, not by chance, but by me, because I foresaw the encounter of the calamity, so I have already started to arrange this matter." ”

Speaking of this, Qi Wuwei already remembered the beautiful and moving figure, after all, it was also a friend who had experienced each other's life and death with him, but he was entangled in all kinds of trivial matters, and buried it deep in his head, after the demon world, he knew that he would unconsciously forget some unpleasant things, but he didn't expect that what he wanted to forget was piled up there like tatters, lightly exposed, and heavily buried inside.

"You know, she has died in a corner where you can't find her, because of the calamity. The female voice asked calmly.

Qi Wuwei nodded solemnly, "This is her wish, she has fulfilled ......"

"You know, she wouldn't have to die without me. The female voice said word by word.

Qi Wuwei didn't want to respond: "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have seen her, and I wouldn't have anything to do with her." ”

"Hah!" the female voice chuckled, "what a merciless man! ”

"No, you're different from her!" Qi Wuwei hurriedly said.

"Not only me and her, everything related to your love and hatred, will eventually sink in your gloomy dream, just like the original appearance of this dream, 'longing', 'expectation', it is never your will......" The female voice became weaker and weaker, and the light seemed to be about to go out.

Seeing this, Qi Wuwei couldn't help but stand up, stretched out his hand and leaned forward, "Your hour, is it time...... As soon as the words fell, the lights went out, but the response he was waiting for rang from the bottom of his heart and came as scheduled.

"Tell me first, do you have any objections to what I just said?"

Qi Wuwei heard this response from the bottom of his heart, only to feel a warm current spread from his heart, spreading all over his limbs and the top of his head, and in surprise, he replied in a trembling voice: "No! Of course not!"

"But this is just a dream, you can only be a person who understands in a dream, wakes up from tomorrow, returns to the world, and grievances and trivial matters still entangle you. If you can't think about it today, you'll lose your soul in the wilderness, and if you can't think about it in the future, you won't know what will happen to you......"

Qi Wuwei replied with a wry smile: "Uh...... How could I be so unbearable......" As he spoke, he saw a sudden change in his surroundings, the last moment it was still dark and oppressive, and in the blink of an eye it was bright and empty. Qi Wuwei only woke up from a dream, he stood in place and squinted, in a trance, only what he had just talked about in his mind. Sensing a hint of something unusual, Qi Wuwei slowly opened his eyes wide, the light here was not as dazzling as when he woke up in the morning, he looked around, trying to figure out what kind of place this was.

Under his feet was a white sand, smooth as if it had been washed by a wave, like a mirror reflecting the white light of the sky. However, the surroundings are all one, the light shines in every corner, Qi Wuwei can't even find his own shadow, take a look at it twice, and the world will spin, and he can't distinguish between the north and the south, east and west.

Qi Wuwei sank down and figured out that this place was like a scroll, and the integrated heaven and earth were like white paper, just to highlight the "ink strokes" in it. And Qi Wuwei was a portrait painted on this paper at the moment, and he scratched his head anxiously, wondering who he was looking at when he fell into such a scene. But he heard a familiar voice say: "This is a dream, once you fall into it, you will not think about how to escape from it, but you have to go with the flow and deal with the virtual and real encounter." ”

Qi Wuweimu stood in place in a daze, feeling the banter and sigh coming from the breath around him, this seemed to be another dream, a place that he was familiar with, but could only look forward to it for a long time. He would rather stay here forever, vacillating between shrewdness and confusion, and no longer ask about the outside world, even if it is empty and empty, it can still allow him to fulfill his wish of "no thoughts" and "no expectations".

Surprised, Qi Wuwei suddenly brightened, he turned to look for Fang Cai's voice, and in the paleness of his eyes, he saw a woman with long hair and waist in front of her, standing with her back to him. Qi Wuwei walked briskly towards the front and asked, "Is this your dream, why did I get here?"

"It's the lantern boy who has done me a favor......" the female voice said slowly, but she stopped talking. Qi Wuwei's footsteps are getting faster and faster, but although the figure of the woman in the yellow shirt is not moving, he is getting farther and farther away from him, he almost runs, but he has never practiced martial arts, even in his dreams, it makes him feel a lot of inconvenience.

"Why bother?" said the Huangshan woman, "You know that I have not cultivated my human form until the end, if I really have a passable face, I don't need to show it to you, and the same fate spell will tell you." ”

Qi Wuwei stopped, panting uncontrollably, at this moment, the figure of the Huangshan woman suddenly got much closer to him, so close that it was within reach, but he wouldn't really reach out to touch it.

"You'll still help me, right? Even if you can't come back to life, you'll never leave, right?" Qi Wuwei asked.

Looking from behind, the yellow cedar woman seemed to nodded, "The bright lantern boy hid my dream in your dream, and the little bit of my spiritual sense left in this dream will still walk with you, if there is a fate, we will meet again, but this opportunity, you really can't force it......"

Qi Wuwei knew that the residual spiritual consciousness was limited after all, and the next time she appeared, she must have fallen into an extremely dangerous situation. However, once such a relationship is established, Qi Wuwei at least has a way to follow, and he is confident that he can find a way to support the spiritual consciousness in this dream realm, provide her with strength, and even a new body, a different kind of vitality......

"Goodbye, Qi Shizhu ......" The Huangshan woman waved her hand, Qi Wuwei only saw the familiar stone table and stone bench suddenly appear in front of him, and the white light immediately dissolved into the dark void with the woman's figure, he touched the entire stone table, and did not find the lamp of the bright lantern boy, so he knew that the latter should have left. He stayed in the dream, thinking about what he had just experienced, savoring every detail, for fear of leaving it behind when he woke up, and when he had thought about it all, he unconsciously showed a satisfied smile on his face, and he had completely let go of the unpleasantness in Luming City, and before dawn, he thought about it a second and a third time......

When he opened his eyes, Qi Wuwei was sitting on a step in a comfortable posture, and there seemed to be a locked door behind him, he looked in front of him first, it was a path that had just been built, and the grass and trees were simply cleared, and the stone slabs were not paved, so his footprints last night were still on it. "That kind of state......" Qi Wuwei looked at himself, the new clothes provided by the Lingliu clan had only been completely covered in blood and dust after only last night, and they were only better than the clothes he had worn for two years in that there were not so many holes that needed to be patched, "How did you find this right way?" Qi Wuwei thought, but the answer was clear, and the only one who could guide him in the dark was the Bright Lantern Child.

He stood up, turned around and looked, the house behind him was really a temple, just the plaque hanging on it and the couplets on both sides, but the words were extremely ordinary and low-key, and they didn't even point out the identity of the gods in the temple.

His eyes fell on the door lock, Qi Wuwei praised "simple and practical!", and then he heard a "boom!", and the simple thing lost its effect. As soon as he entered the door, he first saw a folded piece of clothing resting next to the broom at the door, Qi Wuwei picked it up and stretched it out, and he couldn't tell whether it was a monk's robe or a Taoist robe, anyway, it was clearly prepared for him. The rice bowl noodle bags on the side are full of Dengdeng, and the chopped firewood is also piled up not far away, and a few steps further in, you should see the stove for cooking with a fire, and other conditions related to staying here temporarily, Qi Wuwei only hopes that the people of the imperial robe will not drive the well too far.

In all dynasties, there have always been some famous figures who have been respected by the followers of various religions, and after their deaths or even before their deaths, they have been drawn into the systems of various religions, and have become immortals such as "Venerable", "True Monarch", "Emperor" and "Bodhisattva", and left them to be worshiped by future generations. There are still a few such people in the Shengping Dynasty, but that was before Qi Wuwei was born. And now, a person who has watched himself grow up is gradually joining the ranks of the gods, and the feeling of such a state of affairs is only "strange! strange!" is no longer enough.

Closing the temple door, it was like a monk or Taoist priest who had received the incense was about to start chanting, but Qi Wuwei ...... But it hasn't opened yet.

He looked at the statue that was exactly the same as the statue in Luming City with his eyes, but there was a strange throbbing in his heart, put down the mustard and re-examined it, it turned out that next to the statue of the person, there was a small golden fox of the same material, just like the "spirit beast under the seat" and "Dharma Protector Psychic" of other gods, Qi Wuwei looked at the fox statue and muttered to himself: "Little fox, little fox, are you going to compete with the old fox for food and incense?"
